i'm using an r35 itech headset. has ad2p, you can change the headset to plug in more quality cans (uses a 3.5mm jack), there's a buzzer that can be enabled when a call comes through. take note, this is a clip-type headset. which means the "body" is clipped to my collar while there's a wire which leads to the earpiece. i like it because i don't have anything dangling in my ear all the time.
others like the jabra have features like caller id, a2dp, etc.
cheers
Thank you for the suggestion. Ill look into it. God bless

I have both Jabra BT8010 and i.Tech Clip D. I myself would recommend Jabra for using with Advantage.
I have a Jabra 8010 and now I like it. Initial results were poor but not because of the Jabra. The problems were regristery settings and I suspect they affected most blue tooth headsets.
jabra 8010 promblem with athena
i used this jabra and is very bad ..i throw it away and now i use nokia BH 900.and is very good on the athena.ok you dont have the dialing mode from this headset but you have the voice dialing and voice is very clean.
I tried the Jabra for a while and still use it for stereo, but for everyday use, I'm back to my BlueAnt V12. The V12 has vibrate feature and shows incoming numbers (not names). It is working well for me. Keeps a good connection, great range, voice dial works reliably. I can hear people and they can hear me. That's the main things I want.
IMHO, the Jabra is better in theory than in practice. Biggest deal breaker for me was that all audio seemed to go to the headset, with no audible alarms or ringtones. Since I only put it on when I need it, this wasn't so great for me. It you wear it 20/7 (allowing four hours for sleep) I think it would be OK.
I'm using the simple HTC M100.
Everything goes OK. Only problem I got is because I have beard and when touch the microphone of the M100 they hear terrible noise in the other end.
Two solutions: a) Peel my face or b) Change to other headset that avoid the problem.
The HTC M100 is cheap and reliable anyway.
You use regular headphones by the 3.5 headphone jack often? How is the sound qualty of the X7500? Ive heard its pretty bad but Ive also heard it depends on what player you use? How do you connect a BT headset and a regular pair of headphones at the same time? Ive read so much info about the X7500 now so Im a bit confused

nope, i hardly plug anything in the 3.5 jack of my u1000. my bluetooth is turned on like 24 hours a day =)
what i do is my itech r35 is bonded with my u1000. the setting is only for hands free...meaning when a call comes in i then answer it using the r35. i have another bt headset: jabra...and i forgot the model...but basically it's the same as the r35 (interchangeable headsets). that unit is bonded to my u1000 for music. i leave the jabra in my car as it's connected to the car stereo. so, whenever i'm in the car i can then listen to my soundz anytime. when a call comes through, the music pauses. i then answer the call using my r35.
when i'm not in the car, i can set the r35 for both handsfree and stereo....if i want to listen to my tunez that is.
even if you have a headset bonded to your unit, you can still plug in a 3.5mm jack headphone. what happens is the music will be played. if there's a call, it goes through your bonded headset. the music will simply pause...once your call is done the music resumes. unless you set your headset for hands free AND a2dp stereo, plugging in a 3.5mm headphone will not be a problem.
sound is not bad at all. i mean we're not talking about having bang and olfusen quality here =) but the soundz coming out of my r35 or the jabra are quite good. coupled with the car speakers, there you go. i use the regular media player and i've installed the skin with large keys for easy control.
cheers and i hope that doesn't add to your confusion =)
Go for a Style-i !! Then in car use the headphones on it - works great, and you can use it to make callls during the day too when not in the car - and you dont look like a knob talking to yourself like you do with an earpiece on!

My HTC is far more than simply a phone for me - it is an indispensable productivity component for my business. In particular, I'm addicted to Microsoft Voice Command - and use it heavily to announce my daily appointments and upcoming events. While the style-i seems quite compelling, I don't see it as a hands-free device. I need to look like a "knob" as I've trained myself to listen to announcements from my PDA such as "Meeting with Mr. Smith in 10 minutes" or "Mr. Smith calling on mobile" during face-to-face conversations while not going through all the fumbling, grabbing and excusing myself I would have to do without a hands free bluetooth device. For a busy person like me, the "whisper in the ear" aspect of hands free bluetooth is incredible - even if I do look like Lt. Uhura.
So, I need the following from my bluetooth device:
1) best sound possible
2) complete functionality with MS Voice Command
I have been using the Jawbone now for about two months and I am utterly, completely thrilled. Granted, it took some registry hacks to get the HTC to only accept voice input from the Jawbone and also to only output to the Jawbone (I am a user, not a developer) but it now works flawlessly. I cannot recommend it enough.
Many people complain that the buttons on the Jawbone are "mushy". I think the problem is that users simply take one of the stock earpieces and put on the Jawbone. I certainly did at first and found the volume too low, the Jawbone very uncomfortable and the buttons incredibly mushy. I then spent over an hour trying the different earpieces and earbuds provided, bending the earpiece I preferred until the earbud finally fit snugly and comfortably in my ear. Suddenly, the sound quality was fantastic (I had to turn down the volume - a first for me), I couldn't even feel the Jawbone and the buttons felt far more crisp.
I use it with a Sony Ericsson HBH 662. It has a small display for the number. I especially love the great sound. Works really well with voice dial. Even in the car.

Hi desweds, excited to read about your finding. Wish to have a bluetooth earpiece able to go with MS Voice Command, may I know which earpiece you can recommend other than the Jawbone. Thanks.

I agree!! Style-i is fantastic... it does drop calls sometimes, but all you have to do is quickly go into Comm Manager, re-activate bluetooth and press the call button on the style I and you're back... takes seconds... and only happens to me once every couple of weeks if that!
It's crystal clear both ends, easy to use, and has a dial pad on the device! 9/10!

OK, after reading this I ordered a Jawbone. It's fantastic. I've spent ages already phoning myself while doing the vacuum cleaning.
Anyway, I was wondering if you have any pointers for:
1) Microsoft Voice Command - Is it necessary to purchase this or is it included in the ROM? And what version do you recommend
2) Registry settings needed to get VoiceCommand working as you described
Thanks for any help
I just bought a Sennheiser VMX 100 bluetooth headset for use with my Dopod U1000. A very good one in term of audio quality on both ends.
The problem is that it keeps disconnected after several calls. Anybody knows how to fix this?
Just received my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 Stereo Bluetooth Headset. It's being charged up right now. I'll let everyone know hows the sound quality tonight.
Paid: 99.99 + 5.95 Shipping = 105.94
Edited: Here is what i have experienced with this unit.
Here are the Specs: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/hbh-ds980?cc=&lc=
Sound: Great Clarity and rich Bass( Sounds like your in a car thats equipped with Sound System)
Range: Since it is Bluetooth Version 2.0 , it has better range than any other bluetooth headset Version 1.2. ( My previous Stereo Bluetooth by LG HBS-110 was V1.2. While listening to music, it got cut off when i went into another room, and came back on when it was in line of sight.) On the Sony Ericsson, it was cutting off a little bit but not completely off, and can go farther than like the LG)
so far thats with the Music portion. Still have to play around with it more to see whats great about it.
Mind me asking where you ordered your ds980 from?

I think Sony DR-BT Serie is better. Its more a Headset for Bluetooth MP3 Player. They have better DA-Converter inside. I use in the moment ... DR-BT50.

i've been using the Sony DR-BT10CX for the past few months and am very pleased with the sound quality i am receiving. i am having two major problems that i do not know how to fix:
1. every time i go to connect the headset to the phone, i have to go into the bluetooth settings, uncheck the boxes a) wireless stereo and b) headset, then save those changes. then i have to go back into the settings and re-check the boxes and save. - this is a nightmare of an issue, when the headset should simply connect automatically when turned on.
2. making calls is fine, but when a call is received it does not answer through the headset, but through the phone. pointless if you are driving for example...
if anyone knows how i can fix this, i'd love to hear a solution...
MBR-100 Sony/Ericson stereo receiver
I'm using the MBR-100 Sony/Ericson stereo receiver to stream music to me car stereo via 3.5mm input cable and to me earbuds when I am riding on my motorcycle. It connects quickly, sounds good and lasts about a week between charges. I only commute about an hour a day. I got it for $80 at Fry Electronics. I have seen a few of them ob ebay as well.
HT820 + Telus P3050 Touch
I have the Motorola HT820 on a Telus Touch P3050 Vogue and it is very good. I am pleased with my choice.
Sadly I must say stay away from the BlueAnt X5's...horrid sound quality. It seems that the sony's have good sound quality, at least as good as a wired buds that are included. The X5's are much worse. Less spatial seperation, more "muddy" sound, just not good.
Everything I've heard and read about the Jawbone BT headset says that it's a very high quality unit, with excellent noise reduction/cancellation properties. I'll be getting one when I save up some pennies. (10,000 pennies to go!)
i'm using the BlueAnt Z9 with the new 3.4 firmware update and, for me, it's loud and clear with the Vogue. i actually have to turn it down...i have not had any complaints from others when using the headset. when i purchased the Z9 it had the 3.0 firmware and the volume was very acceptable to me. also, the 3.0 firmware allowed you to control the volume with the phone. with the 3.4 firmware, all volume is controlled by the headset.
Jawbone
I have the black jawbone best bluetooth I have used thus far and I have tested quite a few. connects flawlesly and quickly as soon as you turn it on and the noise cancelation that the jawbone is famous for actualy works
I have an old wep150 (samsung) I got it for another phone about a year and a half ago. Its sounds worse on the vogue than it did on my motorola phones. I hope to get a nice stero headset for listening to music and calls. I'm glad to hear the sound quality is good for these devices.
BT
I use the Jabra BT 5020 works awesome on my sprint (cdma) touch. Long life too.. I have always like the jabra products. You can also pair it with multiple devices. it has vibrate.
Timdawg
Just got the SE HBH-DS970 and it works pretty well. the call display only shows the number not the name unfortunetly. And My music tracks don't seem to show up on the screen. Any one else experience this?
I just got the new MOTOPURE H12 the other day and really like it. I got rid of the Jabra BT8010 because I felt like I had to yell into it. This new H12 is pricey at $129.00 but worth it because I am in the car alot. This thing is very small and very light. It comes with a cool desktop charger and carrying case that you can use as a charger also. Here is a link http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/h12/
Good question, CCRRAR!
Has anybody got a bluetooth to work with Voice Command??! The closest I've gotten has been with the Blue Ant Z9, I manage a RadioShack, and we just started carrying that unit. It is small, lightweight, comfortable, and very good volume. Better than almost any Motorola bluetooth re: volume. The plantronics are good volume as well, but a bit bulkier. But the Blue Ant actually recognizes Voice Command! The problem, like most, is it doesn't recognize the confirmation.
Very Frustrating!
Anyone found a fix? I've tried some that profess to be the "true fix" but no luck.

can anyone recommend a bluetooth receiver that works well with this phone?
I am looking for something I can plug my own headphones into... has its own mic... and controls that will work to skip tracks when listening to music.
A friend recommended me this
http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=152
which is about 2 years old now... just wondering if anyone else uses anything else?
or even a wired one that controls the music and has a mic, but lets you use your own headphones.
Thanks
Hi
I have a set of Motorola S9 Bluetooth headphones, which also has a built in mic and music control keys. I was getting backgroud hiss issues with my Vario II, but I can confirm that these headphones work flawlessly with my Touch Dual.
http://www.motorola.com/motoinfo/product/details.jsp?globalObjectId=177
hmmm was hoping for something i could use my own earphones with...
thanks though
The S9s are good and sound quality (at least on my old N73) was absolutely fantastic.
However, I couldn't recommend the Motos to anyone. I've had 3 of them, and they've all failed with exactly the same problem - all the controls have failed. They're supposed to be waterproof, and having used them down the gym whilst running, they couldn't cope with a small amount of sweat.
You could go for :
http://l8shop.net/products/SonyEricsson-Stereo-Bluetooth/Headset-HBH-DS200.aspx

ahh... thats the one i ended up going for... hopefully arrive soon...
we must think alike haha
Sony Ericsson HBH-DS220
I ordered a Sony Ericsson HBH-DS220 from Ebay about a month ago and paid 60 USD - works really well for music, has full controls including call functions - even pauses music when you have an incoming call and you get to use your own headphones if you prefer - which is why I chose this set?
Here's the link - hope this helps?
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/hbh-ds220?cc=ca&lc=en
just received my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS200 today...
I have to say I am disappointed.
In the description on the mobilefun website I think it said music browsing... I was expecting to be able to twist the thing (like on my old md players, etc) to be able to skip forward or backward.
I was also expecting a volume control, but there is none.
Other things that bug me...
- when phone is on standby mode, when you press play on the ds200 the phone turns on. I am not sure if this is because of my ROM (t-mobile uk) or because of the ds200. A mate of mine back in oz has the touch dual with the motorola mentioned above, and the screen doesnt switch on. Pretty annoying.
- when someone rings me... I thought that I would just hear the ring in my earphones... but my phone rings.
- when listening to music... it seems to cut out momentarily (half a sec) every once in a while. Not sure if most bluetooth audio things do this, since this is my first one.
On the positive side of things... when listening to music and you decide to call someone... it switches automatically and the mic seems to work alright with the earphones. But I guess this is something that I expect anyway.
Also it is a good size.
Lbt-hp210c2bk
any one had try or tested this new logitec LBT-HP210C2BK??
I'm generally disappointed with the music playback on the Dual, either with the supplied headphones, or with my Jabra BT620s.
Pressing play on the Jabras doesn't always make the Dual start playing. Sometimes pressing play on the Dual, playback commences through the phone instead.
The momentary pause in the music seems to be a "feature" of the Dual though It does it both via wired and A2DP headsets.
Also, see what happens with incoming calls when you've got the bluetooth headset connected. Mine routes incoming calls through the phone, not the headphones.
And for those considering the S9HD - consider the price difference, and look at installing the SRS WOW HD software onto the Dual - probably does a similar job.

I have a DS220 and am generally satisfied with the sound quality for music playback but I do have one (rather major) problem: after phone calls (both incoming and outgoing) the phone drops the connection to my headset and I have to switch the headset off and then back on to reconnect. This is really irritating!

my dual occasionally, without notifying me, turns off bluetooth.. found out yet again today when i got a call in-car.
i can find no reason for this, but i sympathise...
Hi all
I have never used an phone has an mp3 player up untill the diamond i really dont know why... now my problem, i have been using the wire headset that comes with the package it works awfull i really hate the cord it keeps messing up all over.. the other problem whenever i want to skip a music i have to turn on the diamond and select the next song, i tought on buying that htc accessory that has controls on it, seems nice, but i believe then the cord becomes huge.. so i tought on a2dp ( never used it actually) so i wonder wich ones work well with the diamond i mean not having to turn on the diamond to go forward on the song list.
thanks for all the good work, the diamond is a great phone but if it wasnt for XDA it would be a great phone with some annoying flaws.
I'm using GGBlue without any problems.
Using Motorola S805, works great!
Sound quality much better than with TD-headset. Full bass, warm sound.
Plantronics Pulsar 590 has been around a couple of years, but still seems to be one of the best stereo BT headsets on the market. Better sound quality, a decent mic for voice and works well with the Diamond. I broke my first set and just ordered another.
The looks aren't too svelte but I prefer the over the head kind than the behind the head because I find them much more comfortable when exercising.
I've been using a Jabra bt320s - supports the profiles you need, fairly decent sound, and nice n small. Lasts a long time on a single charge too.
Nice thing about it is that you can connect any headphones you want, as it has a 3.5mm stereo jack. So you're not limited to wearing a giant headset, and can use them at the gym.
I use the Sony DR BT 10 CX Bluetooth.
Great sound (incredible base), lasts over 8 hours at full blast. And it has no delay, so you can even watch movies in sync with the audio.
if you want it even smaller and be able to choose your own earphones, look at this one: Sony Ericsson HBH-DS220. though it doesn't last as long and has a little delay
i am using both motorola s9 and sonorix obh-0110. both are working fine.
jabra 320s. auto connects brilliantly once paired.
Hey all,
I just picked up a shiny new set of Sony DR-BT10CX A2DP headphones, because I was sick of the huge Diamond headphone adapter.
I was hoping that the clever folks of xda-developers could clear up a few things for me, though.
Does A2DP support calling (microphone, etc), or should the phone switch the HFP/HSP when a call is made (or comes in)?
I ask because I'm getting bizarre behaviour...
If I'm listening to music and I make a call, the music mutes and I get my friend's voice through the headphones, but I have to speak through the phone.
If I'm listening to music and I receive a call, the music still mutes, but I have to use the phone to hear and speak.
Also, voice commands don't work through the microphone.
If the phone is supposed to switch into HFP from A2DP to deal with calling, this all makes sense (sort of...), but it doesn't explain why the profile switching doesn't happen.
I know there are already a bunch of topics about the Diamond and A2DP, but nothing that fits my situation. Since I'm using the Telus CDMA Diamond, I imagine that the other problems with A2DP were fixed (since I never have the problem of the phone playing music through the speaker instead of the headphones after a call), but it's still not perfect.
