Bluetooth Headsets

I found southwing sa505 for like around 29 bucks on ebay. I plan to get them however i heard that i can't listen to movies throught bt headsets. Is this true? That's all i will use them for other than talking (don't listen to music much) I have the 8525 and Tilt. Will listening to movies on them work for sure? Also, any reviews or experience on the headphones would be great. Thanks

theres a program that reroutes system sounds to your bt headset. so you can listen to music on it. i assume if you can listen to music, then listening to movies would be the same thing.

Hmm, i know you can listen to music but somebody on another forum said that you couldn't so that's why i just want somebody to say that you can or if i can't.

It can, search for BTaudio Toggle.exe you can map a button to allow you to toggle all audio thru the BT headset. It works great for Nav, Movies, Slingbox, Streaming Radio, whatever. A must have app.

If they are stereo bluetooth they will work, I have the tilt and the Motorola s9's and they work fine for all audio on my Tilt. If they are mono headsets the only phones that will let you listen to audio are Nokia phones.

I was thinking of getting those and i really wanted some short personal reviews but never got any. Now i'm leaning towards the southwings sa505 because i found them for 30 bucks. If i can find the s9's for around 50, i'll get them maybe.

There is a big difference between music and videos: music just needs to be streamed, but videos need to have sync between audio and video. BT headsets are good enough for it though, because I sometimes watch videos on my PC with a BT headset.

I have recently posted a S9 review here: http://www.motorolafans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15168

How do you know if they are fake or not? Are these fake?

Those are 100% fake, no doubt about it. The original one costs around US$ 70.
The best proof of a original pair is the hologram that comes wrapped around it.
I bought mine from this guy: http://cgi.ebay.com/Motorola-MotoRO...814724QQihZ012QQcategoryZ133229QQcmdZViewItem
Mine is original and came sealed as advertised.
Be very careful when buying, especially on EBay, most are fakes there.
If you live in the US you can buy from Amazon, it is more reliable.

I do live in the US but haven't found a good price on the s9's. do you know if these are fake to?

Motorola S9 + HTC Touch Diamond

Hello!
I'm new on this forum, as I'm new on Diamond stuffs. Didn't mean I doesn't have any knowledge about modiles. But, beside this and the search that I perform, let me ask:
The Motorola S9 Bluetooth headset works fine with Diamond? I know it's the phone have all profiles inside (A2DP, HSP, HDF and AVRCP) but I wanna read some experiences with.
Can I pick a call and still listen my music after drop the call? Everytihng works fine with this device? If yes, I'll buy it on saturday. Didn't not to mention the fact of Diamond headset be a worst piece of crap (IMHO!).
Please, forgive my terrible english and thanks for all your answers!

Hi,
Yes, everything works well with the Motorola S9. I use it every day. The only issue I have, and its been discussed elsewhere, is that the remote control for music only work with Media Player and the touchflow 3d music player.

Works fine, although I do think that the audio quality is better with my moto v3maxx, but still far better than the Diamond headphones. I think i saw a mod somewhere for those headphones, to wipe out the static.
note if you get the S9, try looking for the S9 HD, it wipes out static on any phone.

They took so long with the S9 HD. They announced them several months ago and they're still not out; have to wait till Q4 for them :\.

Hmmm... I'm not a Windows user; I use a Macbook to sync my stuffs with Diamond. That's my point: my music stills in M4A format, so... only the Pocket Player (from Conduits) is capable to play them with all tags correctly displayed.
Should this program works with S9? And I didn't see the HD to sale on my country (Brazil).

Works excelent for me...
I got an official Spanish ROM...

Marcos,
I live in Brazil too and I have a S9. Be very careful where you buy it from, because most of what is sold is fake.
I bought mine from EBay, and it costed US$ 105 shipped. If you find it for much less than that (< US$ 70) it's probably fake.
Ask the seller if it comes with a hologram wrapped around it, because the original one does.
Now about the Diamond don't know, I use my S9 with my Motorola A1200. I didn't buy a Diamond yet because I'm waiting for Touch Pro.

US$ 105 ? That's pretty expensive for such a pair of A2DP headphones. It has major problems with outdoor interference-resistance and can get bad very easily if your ears are sweaty (you for example run / jog while listening to music), unlike with larger headphones.

Hi Smaniac!
Well... I found it in a mall (SP Market in São Paulo) for R$250,00. I'm not worry about price, but the full compatibility itself. BTW, the hologram looks like in this photo? And you get the red, blue, green or black device?
Thanks for your reply!

For me, the headphones have been nothing but perfect whether i'm outside or inside. I don't run a lot but play a lot basketball but don't where them so i can't comment on that. At the ATT store, they retail for about 100 and through Motorola, 120 :O.

Well... I'll buy it on saturday!
I'll tell yours my impressions after get it on my hands.

[Q] Decent Headset for HD7

I am currently using some headphones from my Sony Walkman which are really good quality. Obviously, they don't do the call features. The included headset for the HD7 are obviously crap.
What would you recommend for me for the HD7 to:
* restrict noise leakage (I find the buds are best for this)
* make/accept calls
I notice Sennheiser do iPhone kit. The HD7 is obviously pretty new and will not likely get the attention from the better headphone makers. What's the compatibility like between smartphones? Are iPhone/other phone headsets compatible?
I would prefer wired, but if Bluetooth provides the better functionality/sound then I'll consider those.
Thanks.

I use Plantronics Voyager Pro Plus. It's a BT headset and one of the best I have used. You can get the one without the plus for a lower price.
The plus is A2DP enabled. I got a good deal on Amazon.com during the holidays.
I would definitely recommend this BT Headset. Very comfortable and very functional.

Thanks. Although I should have made it clear I need this for music, so it needs to be stereo.

I personally use two headphones, though I'm not too sure this would suit your needs, I either carry a pair of earbuds or my Bose headphones, and then a Blueant Q2 for talk... I know it could be a pain... Also, try using the sound enhancer app from HTC

Thank you all.
In the end, I think these are probably my best bet. They supposedly work on Android, so similar may get similar operation on WP7?
Sennheiser MM 70i Headset with Smart Remote and Mic to Control iPhone
There was a link here to the product.
Because of your forum rules, I cannot post the link to the earphones. Apparently after 8 posts I can do, so maybe i should create 5 or more posts with pointless content in just so I can paste a link? This helps nobody.
Any experience with these?

Plantronics 903 Backbeat! Love it. I use it at work to listen to stuff on my pc and phone connected to take calls or listen to music on my phone while I'm out of the office. Sounds really good and the most comfortable set of bluetooth STEREO headphones I've used.

Thanks for your help. I've taken a punt based on your response and some fairly positive reviews. My only worry is the sound quality, but let's see. I'll be sure to let you know!

I am also in the same boat as you guys. The headphones with HD7 are bad, so I am turning to SE for help.
Here is what I might buy:
1. SE HPM 88
2. MH 710
3. MH 700 OR
4. HPM 77
In India, we don't get the ones with the mic. We only get headphones. I SO SO REGRET GIVING AWAY My X1 heaphones... DAYUM!!! WISH I COULD turn back time.

I bought the Plantronics set and am quite impressed. Have some sound quality/comfort issues but other than that, a great set.
I was asked to blog about it by a local TelCo:

Bluetooth Headset ? Any idea ?

Hello !
I am searching for bluetooth headsets for my hTC HD2 !
I have the Motorola S9 HD but i'ld like to change
I am thinking about getting a Jaybird Sportsband 2 (
For the same price, is there something better ?
Thanks

of all the headsets i have had....about 15 in the last 2 years. this is due to the fact that i lose and break them very often because of my job; i would say the one i'm using right now is pretty good, it is the samsung WEP475.
pretty good audio
the other person can hear you very well, even in a 13L 425hp diesel!
and it is very loud, so having it on the low volume setting is a good idea (this is due to our phones i think though)
for me i just need something that works good, and is cheap. spending 100-200 on a bluetooth headset and loosing it 3 days later seems stupid to me.
on a side note the shortest timei have ever had a headset for is 2hrs before i ran it over with 100,000lbs!

try this mate!
months ago I started a thread (after many searches on this site about a good stereo bluetooth headset)
I restricted my choices onto 2 stereo headset and in the end I bought the SE MW600 ...
You can read the posts here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=713693
Mate, I really recommend this bluetooth headset to everyone ... long lasting battery, astonishing audio (like if you are listening music through a good mp3 player), voice commands, info on the led display (sometimes ...not everytime ... also the name of the caller), comfortable buttons-commands, etc ...
Regards

Is Bluetooth not universal?

Thanks for answering
What can you guys tell me about the Sennheiser HD 448 ?
Should I buy it ?

I use the Avantalk jogger. It is really light, has a very long running time and is not too expensive. Only the bass is too quiet!

I use the jabra extreme. Out supports a2dp and has place call function, redial, 2 mics to reduce background noise, good quality stereo sound in one speaker. Best buy has them for 80US.

I have used a Jabra BT8010 for years with my iPhone 3G and then my HTC HD2. Recently, I replaced it with the Samsung HM3500 and it works great, too. You can purchase the HM3500 on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280679860257
I bought mine from this person and it is excellent. It cost $27 and free shipping.
The new model is the HM3700 that T-Mobile is selling for $70. I didn't like the HM3700 because it did not have the big button on the side to answer a call.
The only thing I do not like about the HM3x00 is that it does not fit into my ear and thus sticks out about an inch from my face. I do like the ear bugs for the stero. Hope this helps anyone looking at this posting.

There is only one Bluetooth hands-free and it's called Jawbone:

Everything else is a compromise.

until today i have never need a headset

Stereo Bluetooth Headset

I recently rediscovered Pandora and I also found iHeartRadio. I found my favorite morning radio show on one of the stations. Sadly I haven't found my favorite local station that has the morning show. I work off and only catch part of it on Mondays while driving out of town. These with the Nexus S are awesome.
I'm clueless on Bluetooth headsets. I discarded the ear buds or disregarded them actually and used them for the first time this weekend after using a pair from the Galaxy S last week. Those hurt my ears but the NS ones I used last night were pretty comfortable and was even able to sleep on my side.
So on to the wants...
Price: 50 or less. Maybe more if you can provide a very good reason.
Sound Quality: I can't tell the difference between CD and MP3 so they don't have to be great, good will do.
Volume Control: I really want this on there. I'm going to need to hear people speaking to me while I'm listening to music, but I'm going to need to turn up the volume when I take a call.
Multiple Phones: I have the Nexus S as my personal phone but I'm a foreman at work and have a BB Curve that the company provides me. It would be pretty sweet if it would answer both phones. The BB rings more often. This would be the very good reason I mentioned above.
Charging: I'm not sure how this works on BT devices. Educate me.
Comfort: This is key for me. I'd hate to waste my money on something I'll put on a shelf and look at. Like I said the buds that came with the Nexus S are comfortable to me but I've never liked a pair that were like the ones in the Galaxy S.

I just did this same search. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find anything that supported A2DP for less than $80 (Canadian). I went with a BlueAnt T1, primarily because it has an Android app that does Text to Speech for SMS. Pretty happy with it, aside from the price.

I was in the same need as the OP but I've found the sollution in the Sony Ericsson MW600 BT headset. The sound quality is excellent, loud and clear, it has built-in FM radio which works very well and it can be paired with 3 devices at once. It also has volume control, play/pause, fwd and rew buttons on it.
You can use you favorite set of headphones with this little gadget .. I highly recommend it.

Went with the Sony Ericsson. Thanks for the suggestions. Should be here by next weekend or later. Free shipping for the win!

Maybe these might be something your looking for. I personally have them they have good sound have volume control, track skipping and phone button to take calls. Quality is ok, not as nice as some other headsets but not bad for the price. http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-S9-H...R0BW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1318213100&sr=8-1

Looks like you made a decision already, but one I totally recommend is the Motorola S305. Its similar to the suggestion in the above post, but with better reviews. If anybody else is looking for some good Bluetooth headphones, check these out.

I've also used for about 2 years ,w/o any complain, the Nokia BH-503 - http://www.amazon.com/Nokia-BH-503-Stereo-Headset-Black/dp/B001DEWSWA
The only downside of those headsets is that you can not use them in a business enviroment or while driving so you will need a second BT device for those situations. That was the main reason I've sold the nokia one and bought the SE MW-600 ... it is meant for general usage (and for the FM radio ).

Jabra Clipper works with excellence.

Had good luck with Rocketfish headset. Supports a2dp and not in the ear canal. Those things drive me nuts. They stay on my head even on the treadmill.

Hi, I' looking for a wireless headset for gim use (running on the tapis roulant etc...)
Do you think this Sony Ericson can be used for this?

As long as you can clip it to some clothing it should work great. It is very very light so it should stick nice for any activity.
I'm using it also for mountain biking and it never fell off ... not even when I'm going downhill.

Bought it

Rocketfish all the way !
