Bluetooth Headset/Audio - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello fellow TD2 owners,
Has anybody used their TD2's BT Audio function, I have tryed it in my car that has a bluetooth audio stereo(sony), but I am disapointed at the sound quality. Just wondering if anybody else has had any luck using this with good sound quality? I get distored audio on all tracks and it gets bad when i turn volume up.
I was thinking that it could either be the HTC home player, or mabey need a equaliser.
Any thoughts?

I'm using my DR-BT50 every day, like I did with my Diamond and Polaris. No complaints whatsoever.

The only complaint I have in using a Sony DR-BT20NX is occasional short drop-outs. I also get occasional long 6-second drop-outs, but I get those when using wired headphones as well. I've ditched the TF3D music tab today and will start using Windows Media Player for playing MP3s to see if things improve. Sound-quality-wise, I have no issues at all.

Advice Req'd: Streaming audio to bluetooth device (Jawbone)

Dear all,
I have searched high and low for the answer to this on the forums, but can't find anything suitable using the terms A2DP, Jawbone, Bluetooth, Streaming Audio.
I have recently purchased a Jawbone bluetooth headset for my HTC Kaiser. It works perfectly well in the "Hands free" service, but I can't find a service for "Headset" in order to play back audio from Windows Media Player. I would like to listen to podcasts on the way to work/gym/car/walk and also handle my phonecalls using the existing "Hands free" service.
I'm using the Dutty's WM 6.1 ROM, based in the UK, using T-Mobile.
Can anyone advise me on what I need to do in order to stream audio directly to my Jawbone bluetooth earpiece?
Many thanks in advance for your advice!
Buy a Jabra 8040...had the jawbone and its horrid compared to this. Music streams great and the audio is awesome.
Hi sirooga,
I appreciate that you like the Jabra, I've seen one and wasn't that impressed. The Jawbone today has been working very well in all my tests - air conditioning, music, even a construction site can't be heard by my caller. It's so light I can hardly tell it's there.
In any case, I've been messing around with the registry after installing Voice Commander 1.6 and noticed that I'm getting streaming sound to my earpiece. Not sure what I did. I'm going to see if I can break it and refix
I have made a quick review of the Jawbone I received today here: http://blog.evolvedsoftwarestudios....se-introducing-the-jawbone-bluetooth-headset/
I hope this is useful for other Kaiser users.
rofl, if you wanted a headset that stream music to you headset then you should have gotten a2dp headphones. you can however, redirect audio from you ppc to the headset, look at Menneisyys in the wiki, there's something in there somewhere about redirecting sound to a mono headset. i dont see the point of doing that though, the sound quality on the headset profile is just not good enough for music.........just go buy a2dp headphones

Best BT stereo headset that WORKS well with diamond

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.

Music player and A2DP

Hi all,
First of all, I have searched a lot but could not find an answer to my question -- if it has already been posted then my apologies.
I have a strange problem. I listen to music via A2DP using the TF3D music player. Everything works fine until I stop listening and switch off my headset. If I then want to listen to music again and switch on my headset, I can't hear anything (either through the headset or the phone speaker) despite the music being played by the player until I soft reset the device and start again, when everything works fine! I have now got a new device for my car (again using A2DP) and have exactly the same problem.
I don't really want to get another music player because the default player serves my purpose just fine.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a bunch.

How did you change the default music player and disabled the bitpool? Can you please explain the procedure to me?
Thanks
Hallo,
i usec diamond twaeks. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409540
You can change the audiomanager to windows and at bluetooth you can switch the bitpool to disable.
I have used the bitpool at high, and i have the problem, i change it to disable an i have no more problem.
i hope this is the bug and no random...

Hi again earthjumper,
I have changed the bitpool so let's see what happens. I still don't know how to change the default music layer to media player!
Does it better the audio quality in A2DP ?
Cause I think the Diamond performs very bad, sound quality is awful when I listen to the music through my Jabra BT-8010.
Hissing, bad sound quality, distorsion... What a mess... My Sony Ericsson k800performs MUCH better and acts as a real audio player. With HTC, I could'nt manage to have decent audio in A2DP...
Any tweaks in Diamond Tweaks?
Thanks !
Try the free version of Pocket Music. If you enable the equalizer and play around with the presets, it really sounds good on the Diamond, both through the speaker and through BT headset. All others I tried I had the same experience as you.
http://www.pocketmind.com/pocketmusic.htm
THX a lot for ypour quick answer !
I'll give it a spin and keep you updated.
I am afraid it does not work at all...
I still hear these distorsions/metallic noises in high frequencies. It not "earable". It still really creates unintentionnal sounds, hissing and noise, lots of noise...
I have tried any single MP3 player for my diamond but none is working... I guess the A2DP is defective in ths unit.
I am left with a very sad feeling of disappointment... It's another world when I plug in the default corded headset which came out with the unit. Nice sound, not the best of course, but a REAL increase in quality. Niothing is wrong in high frequencies, everything is much smoother and less metallic.
Thanks for your help anyway !
Any other tweak that I might use ? Registry setting, Diamond Tweak... ?
Sound is so unnatural it looks like there's something wrong with a setting... And I don't think the Jabra BT-8010 is faulty here. It could be, but I really don't think so...
@cornwall,
have you change any bluetooth settingss?
when i change the joint-stereo setting to disable, the sound over my bt-headset very bad.let it enable the sound is good, but low bass.

Thats not your Jamba, i bought yesterday Sony Ericsson Bluetooth stereo loudspeaker,
(MSB-100 i think) and the sound is terrible - you hear so much high frequencies distorsions that your ears suffers (and i'm not a sound freak!).
Tested the loudspeaker with old sony ericsson - no distorsions, sound quality 200% better..
Whats sad I haven't found the solution so far,
only SRS WOW (settings WOW Bass) brings me a little bit satisfaction..
Will try more tricks, maybe new ROM with new drivers ??
Hi all,
We seem to have drifted from my original query! I still have not found the solution. I tried earthjumper's remedy but it didn't work. I have tried other players but you can't control them via Bluetooth (i.e. play/pause/volume etc.). Windows Media Player is OK BUT every time it is run, you have to select the music and the library navigation is meant to be done with a stylus. The thing I like most about TF3D music player is that the music that you have selected to play (finger navigation) is always there even when you reset the device.
So my question again -- is there any solution for my problem or can someone tell me of a Windows media player skin which doesn't require a stylus?
Thanks and apologies for the long post.
I agree, I had an orbit 2, and the sound was fantastic through my car bluetooth stereo, now with the xda ignito the sound crackels and sounds terrible on high frequencys.

Help using bluetooth headset with xperia x1

Hi, i have spent some time searching now and since i couldn't find this anywhere i decided to post here, hope someone can help me.
Recently, i bought the official sony playstation 3 bluetooth headset (http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Accessories/SCPH-98095) and i have connected it to my xperia x1 through bluetooth (running with itje's touch-it xperience v13.2), the problem is, it only outputs sound for the voice calls, i can't listen to music on it or the normal phone sounds. I know it would be mono sound and not high quality, but i would like to listen to the sound anyway sometimes because its better then leaving it silent.
i have tried in the bluetooth configuration window, clicking in advanced, editing the wireless device profile, thre it was marked hands-free, i clicked refresh and headset appeared, i marked it, then the headset disconnects. when i reconnect it, it auto demarks headset, or it doesnt connect.
I have looked around to see if it was the bluetooth headset problem, but i have not seen anyone else complaining about this or even mentioning it can't play the phone sounds (just some complains about the ps3 sounds not outputing but thats the ps3 fault), and i have also searched to see if it is x1s fault but haven't managed to find an answer as well, so if anyone can plz help i would really appreciate it. Thanks.
thats pretty much because its no BUG.
what u want is a a2dp headset. something tells me that the ps3 headset doesn has this feature. normal headset just route voice calls while a2dp headset route everything.
actually, i didnt use the word bug because i though that might be the case
it has the headset and handsfree profile, not a2dp, but what i wasnt sure if it really needed to have de a2dp profile to output normal sounds, from what i've read it seems it is needed to output stereo high quality sounds, but just sounds with low quality would work for me, thats why im asking, i though the headset profile would be enough for that.
so if i get your message right, unless it has specifically the a2dp profile, there is no other way of making the sound output on the headset, low or high quality?
now i know there might be a way to make it work.
i was listening to some music today using the music player that comes with touchflo 3d, then i pressed the talk button of my bluetooth headset to issue a voice command (with the microsoft voice command program), then the music started playing in my headset while it was waiting for the voice command, once it got the command the music went back to the phone.
Does anyone know any way to make my headset keep playing the sounds, or could at least explain what happens when i press the talk button so i have an idea of where to look to see if find a way?
no one can help me with this? not any tip or a way to select a different output for audio or anything like that?
Also an issue with Audio Gateway
I have tested this issue on two seperate headsets, and so far can get the Xperia to work ONLY as hands free. Seperate phones sperate headsets. The other phone pushed audio thru to the headset whereas the X1 only routes calls.
I also cant find much of this on XDA or anywhere else?
Help?
Regards
i used an ad2p software downloaded from here when i had this issue with my lg ks20. But i havent the gut or im just lazy to try this app on the x1. Maybe u should give that ad2p software a try.

Sound won't play for movies?

I have an HTC HD7 phone, and a Jawbone ERA Bluetooth headset. I can connect the headset fine, and listen to music just fine. Problem is when a movie opens up the sound will only play through speakers . Anybody know if there are any settings to change this or they ate so proud of their speakers you have to listen to them with no other option?
Best regards,
Warren Schaible
Mills, Wy. 82644
Sent from my HTC HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
ive been trying to find that out myself
It is a known bug throughout all WP7 phones I believe. Bluetooth headphones do not broadcast audio during videos but corded headphones work fine.
It's a sync issue, apparently. Getting the video and audio to sync correctly over bluetooth is apparently difficult enough that MS decided it was better to just not support it that to do it poorly. Wired headphones work, though.
ridiculous
i truly love my hd7, however it is ridiculous that ms cannot get the bluetooth vid audio issue fixed....it can be done on android, it can be done s60 what is the problem....i'm kind of irritated about this....i enjoy watching my video podcasts when commuting and was stunned when i figured this out after purchasing my backbeat headset....very, very weak....
