Athena and LG Style-I problem

Hello!
I also bought theLG Style-I black version of it! Is it really from LG? Or just fake?
The sound doesnt seem good at all! People talk a lot about noise on conversations and it keeps unpairing and saying out of range!
Is this normal??
Please notice that I've got WM6 english ROM.
Best regards
Deiota

My Style-i is silver as I thought all were, but maybe there are black ones?
Mine is fine with regard to staying connected etc - seems fine on conversations etc.

Hello Deiota,
I'm using also the LG Style-I with my Ameo, but without any problems at all. Clear conversation over BT, sound is good; and okay, sometimes Style-I told me, out of range, but if I use the Style-I to phone anybody, the LG is already connected at the Ameo and is working perfect.
btw: my Ameo is running under WM5 original OS. and the Style-I is silver

Which colour is it? I'm thinking that perhaps black is fake...

Mine is silver, but I remember seeing both black and silver ones reviewed on various websites.

The style-i is available in both Black and Silver.
It will unpair with WM6 if the device has low battery ~20-30%, as bluetooth deactivates to save battery life, or atleast thats what I've noticed with the Ameo's I have.
Try forcing a re-pair, by pressing and holding CLR until "pairing..." displays, and run it through the pairing wizard in WM6, passcode is 0000.
Regards

Whata about the noise I notice some times?
I think this is not normal. Some times its OK but others its crappy!
The X7500 is never away 2 mts.
best regards
Deiota

Hi,
I've got the black one too but I don't have any problem.
I have to say that the sound quality is not the best one (compared with any other phone speaker) but it is fine.
By the way, I will add some pictures.
Best regards,
Alberto

I find the call quality on my silver one great, never get "what was that" "can you repeat that"... :-D

I just got a black one from ebay. I has been perfect and i have had zero problems. I was able to walk away from my phone 15' into another room and still had a connection but the person on the other side said it was "scratchy". I paid about $32 and it came "oem" style with just the ac adapter and small worthless "additional information" book. The only thing that didn't work was voice command dialing when my nephew was screaming in the same room as me. The ambient noise seemed to garble the voice command i had set and the phone wouldn't recognize what i wanted it to dial.
Also black is not fake it just seems to be harder to find on ebay. I can find it other places in retail box but then its $150 or something crazy like that. Im glad i purchased the black one. I have read reviews and they have mentioned the black one also.
Also a question for all style-i users. How do you wear your style-i? I am trying wearing it clipped on my collar with a t-shirt. I don't know about my pocket because it seems like it might be easily crushed or cracked open if left in there.

Glad you have a good black one - it proves they are not fakes! Great news.
I wear mine on my pocket no problem.
Also the JetWare extensions to make it work with called Name ID works very well - well worth the $14.95....

I keep mine.... in the cupboard. The novelty of it soon wore off, and I bought a Jawbone headset.

I installed JetWare as a trial. Name ID did not come up on my style-i (I have a 7500 running WM 6 with the 7501 ROM), just the phone number. Is there a change you made to the default settings for Jetware (I believe the hands free config) for Name ID to come up? Thanks.

mhh, please check .. in this way my LG works well with the caller name !
ok let's go my friends
Paired your lg pen first
first you need to download and install jetware mobile software http://www.jetwaremobile.com/bthfx/JetBTHFExt-1.30.cab
Then copy
http://www.jetwaremobile.com/bthfx/Device/Nokia_HS-12W.jcf
to your device and execute it.
It will ask you if u want to apply setting to your lg pen, say yes.
Then go on programs folder bluetooth options, hands free config, menu advanced options tick callerid and clik done, done.
reset
And voilà it must work

Palmchen, you're right, it does work. I missed the second file, as well as the change to advanced options. Guess I didn't read or search enough. Thank you very much.

Vibrate
While several of the bluetooth headsets with caller ID have a vibrate feature, the LG Style-I doesn't. So if call comes in, I wouldn't know unless I have the ringer on on the phone, which I can't do sometimes, such as in a meeting. So if call comes in, I probably won't know to even look at caller ID because I won't know there is a phone call. It is a downside to an otherwise nice device.

I have the same problem with a cheap Style-i (black) from eBay ($14.99). After connecting to X7501, every 35 seconds it says "Out of Range" then reconnects about 2 seconds later. Upon reconnecting, it starts up Voice Speed Dial on the Advantage.
Anybody found a solution?
(I've tried resetting both devices, un-pairing/re-pairing, both fully charged, my Motorola BT headset works fine...)
Steve

I used to get mine reconnecting all the time, so got fed up with it and use a Jabra 8010 Bluetooth Headset now, with Vibra, now theres a novelty!
Glad that people have got the Style I working with Caller ID, thats a handy feature for sure.

I followed all previous instrunctions and still not able to display the caller name on the screen of the HBM-700, only the number display.
It works fine on Tekkeon ET3000 ...
Can you pls list what features are to be checked in the "Advanced Options"
Thks in advance

It's about bloody time too
Release date is yesterday- I wonder if there's anything different than the one floating around here

At least there is from start a programm icon and the exe isn't anymore in the main memory which gives a advantage of almost 3Mb at your phone.

The changelog says, that they resolved audio routing problems...if they mean sound routing to phone (front) speaker it doesn't work on my diamond. Speech still comes out the top speaker. Anybody maybe got it to work?

Tried it worked but still the back-speaker is used.

Yes and that sucks!!!
Well at least its faster and better looking and better quality than fring.

This "using the main top speaker" has always been a feature of Skype. I don't think it's a bug, but its designed that way.
I believe the earpiece speaker can *only* be used by the phone module of the device, and no other apps can access it.. Maybe some experts can verify my statement.

Agree, can you use skype with headphones?
O wait ill try right now!
UPDATE 3minslater:
Yes it works headphones pretty cool great sound quality (thanks to Jewels great and fast connectivity set) and a skype designed for 6.1. IMO
what you boys think??

SIP calling can be enabled on the phone (your GPS dies hoewever), but then the sound does go though the right speaker. So yes, it is definately possible to not only use the front speaker, and I'm pretty sure this is not a feature, but just an accepted bug.
PS: Some E-Ten devices can have Skype routed to the internal speaker.

Hey mkhattab, jus wanting to know wht is data package price you are paying to etisalat in dubai... cause i am planning to subscribe to it so tht i can use skype too.... thanx a lot....

at least you guys have audio. No audio on htc 6800 or 6900s (cdma).

once installed it says version 2.2.0.38, skype site says 2.2.0.45 ??
I had a "test" version before and it was already v45.
Nevertheless I now have a home plugin and a new splashscreen.

not working
I have installed skype on my diamond but it doesn't works.....
The program start and after the start screen the device make a soft reset......
Why?

Does Video call work with skype ?

Seems to work on mine, i'm just running the orange rom..
Sucks that sound always goes through loud speaker..
As far as I can see, you cant video call with it yet

SKYPE sprint htc touch mp 6900 windows mobile 6.1 NOT working

HD2 and sony erricson mw600 review

Hey guys, i`ve been browsing the site for a while and thought it about time to make an original contribution. I was looking for a blue tooth headset and my searches here lead me to the MW600. quite a few people were asking about it so i thought it a good opportunity to give my review now that i have one!
from the start then, i bought this as i have a very nice pair of headphones i wanted to use with the phone, but could not be doing with cords. most bluetooth headsets have their own headphones which i get along with even less. this seemed a perfect solution to both problems.
the box it comes in is flimsy at best, indeed the plastic tab to hang the box on is completely lose, useless for hanging up in a shop.
out the box, its a lot smaller than i imagined but a bit thicker too. it comes with a charger that handily also fits the HD2 which is an added bonus and un expected!
when i paired up to the phone i was very surprised to find that the unit displayed the song info correctly. i honestly did not expect this to work outside of a sony erricson phone but it works! the next track and previous track buttons work as well, as does the play and stop buttons.
the hands free works fine as well with the person who called me not knowing i was on a hands free.
the volume control is awful, they decided to use a slider that half the time does not register me raising the volume and when it does its impossible to get the right volume setup, its either too high or too low and the slider is too imprecise to get the setting i want!
I cannot comment on the enclosed head phones as i never used them!
When i play some music through the device ( and that is of course what its for) the results are slightly dispaointing. the sound is okay, but that is about as best as i can describe it. maybe its because i am spoilt by the good quality output from the 3.5mm jack on the phone, maybe i am just used to having some EQ on (which the unit does not provide for and the phone says it cannot apply `audio booser` without somer thing being plugged in the 3.5mm jack) but the bass is there (thanks on no small part to the ehadphones rather than the unit) but the mid seems `transparent` with no real hit and the highs are annoyingly 'sparkly'. This os of course my opinion, and others may find the output perfectly fine and for comparison i also do not like the output of ipods as i find their mid lacking as well so if your happy with i pod output you maybe happy with this units output,
I have never needed to re charge the unit yet after 3 days of having it and listing to it in the morning for 2 hours and on the way home for an hour so the battery seems quite good.
I love the unit but the quality of the output means i will only really use it when i have to, prefering to use the audio jack output, i am however going to look into how the unit works as i suspect the phone is sending SBD encode audio and not the native mp3. if i can ge tthe unit to decode MP3 and the phone to send mp3 then i think we have a winner!
For reference i used CD originals encoded to lame 3.98 -V1.

just ordered mine. thanks for the review. i will also post up my opinion of the headset when it arrives. if it is as good as the include wired version, that will be good enough for me.

Hey thanks for the review as I'm getting one but you didn't speak about the radio does it work? anything else? cheers mate

Thanks for your review.
But could you edit it so that it's not so hard to read?
Spaces between a few sentences would suffice.

Thanks for the review, install WOW SRS and it should improve the sound quality via bluetooth but it will kill audio booster when plugged with the 3.5mm jack and always use WOW SRS.

Vrery nice, all working apart from Cyberon voice dialer, you can initiate Cyberon voice application by clicking the phone button on headset but can't pass voice to the phone as it doesn't recognize voice. It looks like the problem relates to cyberon not mw600.

The Miri V10 ROM is on the HTCpedia forums (I think it is V11 now, not tried it)

Just got mine, tried it and I have to say:
THE MUSIC QUALITY IS CRAP!!!!!

headphones arrived today. WOW. excellent audio and far better than oem headphones. have yet to play with it on radio etc, but so far very impressive.

I have a problem
After the end of any audio file
Lose "stereo audio" connection
and have to push the play button to reconnect "stereo audio"
and also
After the end of calls
Lose "Hands Free" connection
and have to push the Talk button to reconnect "Hands Free"
but if i received a call
"Hands Free" reconnect automatically
But there is a delay for two seconds
I do not know this is normal?
Like power autosaving!!!

this is definately not normal. mine works flawlessly. no need to reconnect ever. i would suggest checking your bluetooth settings and pairing settings again to make sure everything is correct.

I am using smartWatchM with Sony Ericsson MBW-150
I think there is a conflict between the Watch and mw600 connection

The problem is from latest windows build (23569) & (21903 )
When i go back to an old build like (23519)
There is no conflict between the Watch and mw600 connection
Waiting for a solution to this problem or update for Windows without problems

Delays
Does anyone else experience a 3-5 sec delay when the HD2 jumps 1 song/chapter forward?
My combination gives a this delay, which is especially annoying when listening to audiobooks!
I miss a few seconds of every new chapter, need to manually jump 1 chapter forward and the back again.
Does not appear when manually going forward/reverse only when HD2 is in control.

[Q] route calls and texts to tab via bluetooth?

Are there any apps out there for android that allow you to connect your phone via bluetooth to the tablet and have any calls or texts get routed to the tab just like most car bluetooth systems do? Would love to have the tab replace the entire car system. Nav and music is great but this would put it over the top!!

I know it isn't exactly what you're looking for, but if your tab has a cell number you can always configure your phone to forward texts to it...

You want yo use the tab as a bluetooth car-kit?
Neat idea

I just bought a new car stereo that had bluetooth. Now my music, nav directions and calls go through my car speakers

Can do that pretty easy but what I want is the Tab to be the head unit and pull the calls and texts from the droid phone. The tab is a way cooler and programmer friendly device than any stereo head unit. If someone could point me to any exampls of accessing the bluetooth stack I may find the time to dig in to it myself.

OHH man, i work for Vodafone NZ, and I've been playing with the tab for a few days now. IT IS AWESOME. I have been trying to find a solution to this exact thing. I would love to have the TAB and another android phone (prob galaxy 580) but only have one number, when i'm using the tab i want call and txt to go to there, when I'm not i want to use the phone... get back to me if you have any ideas, i know you can route 3G connection... thats a start...

Food for Though
One more note: is Bluetooth the best option? The tab also has WIFI....?
What does the new blackberry play-book use to connect the blackberry phone? They can reportedly do this exact thing....

Textab
Found Textab after hours of google only works for text messages... can be found on the market here's is the link to the creator http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-apps/6931-textab-sms-send-sms-through-your-android-phone-via-your-android-tablet.html
i wish i could find something like the "BlackBerry Bridge" for our android devices would be awesome

I just posted this about TexTab and our Tab 7:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1191822
There is a link in that thread to the point in the developer's thread where I discuss it... and today I posted screenshots in the developer's thread as well.

I would pay for an app like that. Essentially it would be exactly as you stated, an app that makes your tab function like a car head unit, or bluetooth headset, having the ability to control your phones call functions and media controls. With the added ability to send and receive text messages.
I remember back in the day someone showed me a program on a PocketPC (may have been an iPAQ) that had SIM card access over bluetooth, depending on the bluetooth stack on the phone it should have been able to control phone calls over bluetooth.
Would love to see something like this on the SGT.

SyncSMS

Textab. From Samsung apps seems to work OK. It's sounds like its should be better/more fun than it really ends up being IMO but its a cool "LAN party" trick geek style
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda premium

Desperately looking for this too!!
I actually more interested in being able to make and receive calls from my tablet so I can leave my phone in my pocket or backpack while using the tab, I would definetly pay for this app!!

Gravedigging here, but has anyone found a solution yet?

Please help verify this problem on your phone

This is such a simple problem..
I tried explaining this to HTC tech support but they only have AT&T phones to look at and hold when customers call in.
The AT&T HTC One (M7) phone uses a custom setup for its car dock mode.
I am asking anyone who does NOT have the AT&T version to do a simple car dock mode test.
Here is the problem:
In Car Dock mode (whether you launch it via the app drawer or you plug it in to the official dock which launches it for you) in the bottom right corner is the SPEAK icon.
Launching SPEAK will enable you to call someone or search for music by voice (simple) it also has confirmation though unlike Google Voice Dialer or Google Voice Search.
(there is no icon in the App Drawer) it is only accessible in CAR Mode.
The problem is when you launch it, by design it searches through your contacts and music for just a few seconds to check if you have new contacts or music since the last time you launched it and becomes aware of them. So when opening SPEAK it says on the screen:
"PLEASE WAIT A FEW SECONDS WHILE UPDATING CONTACTS AND MUSIC".. (not the exact wording but close enough)
(it also says audibly via the speakers "PLEASE WAIT" (again, not the exact wording but close enough)
Then when its done searching (about 1 - 3 seconds) it makes a tone and starts listening for your commands.
This works perfect and its a great feature when driving.
NOW HERE IS THE PROBLEM I NEED TESTED:
When a bluetooth device is connected it will hang on the screen where it says:
"PLEASE WAIT A FEW SECONDS WHILE UPDATING CONTACTS AND MUSIC".. (not the exact wording but close enough)
At this point you should hear "PLEASE WAIT" (again, not the exact wording but close enough) but that NEVER happens, it just hangs there until you disconnect the bluetooth device and then reconnect it. Upon the bluetooth device reconnecting it finishes searching and works without any problems.
NOW PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY..
It works with a bluetooth car stereo, headset, etc just fine if you launch the SPEAK app from the Car Dock icon. All is spoken through the bluetooth device and all is perfect like you would expect.
Its ONLY when launching it via your bluetooth button that it hangs.
So the audio stream is working either way, but its the initialization from the bluetooth device that causes the hang..
THIS IS SO SIMPLE TO TEST FOR ANYONE WITH A BLUETOOTH CAR STEREO, HEADSET, ETC. EXCEPT FOR HTC BECAUSE THEY ONLY HAVE THE STUPID AT&T VERSION AT HTC TECH SUPPORT (argh!)
I managed to get it to work back to back successfully only once but I can not get it to do it again.
IF I can get a few people to verify this flaw we can get a fix started via HTC.
I tried to report the problem to them but they can not see what I am talking about so directing them to this forum after others verify it might just make the difference.
Any and all help is very appreciated, thanks...

Yes, it clearly states above that I have tried it with 2 earpieces and a bluetooth Stereo for a total of 3 devices.
This is why I need some other results from other HTC One owners with a bluetooth.

Sorry, I must have missed that. The only thing I found was "bluetooth car stereo, headset, etc".
Anyways, I found the earpiece but it needs to be charged. I will test it as soon as it has enough charge.

Well, I did it. And it seems you are right!
When I try to launch the Speaker app (in Car mode, obviously) it hangs at "Just one moment, preparing your contacts and music now".
I don't even get to hear the "Please wait a moment".
If the app is launched from the phone itself it works as designed. So, bug confirmed.
Unfortunately, I could only test that with one old BT car stereo, as I couldn't connect the One to the earpiece I have.

Thank you for taking the time to test this.
I did not get a lot of responses but you have confirmed for me that it will do no good to return this to T-Mobile just to get another one with the same design flaw.
I know the international versions of the HTC One (M7) are basically the same as the T-Mobile version minus the additional T-Mobile software.
The international version has been upgraded from 1.27 (that is T-Mobile) to 1.28 and now 1.29.
They have claimed in version 1.29 better bluetooth device recognition. (whatever that means)
So if I can just get the version number you have, I can confirm if this is still a flaw or one that could go away with an upgrade
(whenever T-Mobile releases them)
I am hoping you are not on anything other than 1.27 and if yours is indeed a non-Carrier specific version (international) that a simple upgrade will resolve this..

Mine is indeed the International version, but unfortunately with 1.29.401.12 firmware.
I would like to do more tests though. Maybe it's something we forgot to do. If anyone else could test this hypothesis, please do so!
As for the "better BT recognition", I have to say that it does find BT enabled devices very fast (although I couldn't find my old BT earpiece...).

bt fault confirmed
Just tried this with same phone and exact conditions. Can confirm same results and hanging.

Same for me...
If I press the steering wheel button in my car to open a voice command, it hangs. If I press the 'Speak' button on-screen, it doesn't hang.
Software number 1.28.771.6

This is an Android problem I believe. Google now voice search doesn't work when I am connected to blutooth in my car on any phone I have ever used.
So I didn't expect HTC speak to work either.

Sorry gunnyman but you've got it wrong, I am currently able to use Google Voice search just fine and I've always used Google Voice with numerous Bluetooth headsets & car stereos however this HTC Speak problem is exactly that, its the app itself that needs to be updated to work properly through bluetooth.
As for your Google search bluetooth problem, not sure why you're having that issue but it definitely works just fine. On the HTC One I have my JVC car stereo forward track button set for a long press to start Google voice search and I use it all the time in the car.
I have had several Android phones with Google Voice Search and its always worked for me whether its a custom ROM or the stock phone all the way back to the original G1. We can always use voice search.. maybe not voice search over Bluetooth since that was not available until later versions of Android.. but once it was added it works great, not voice dialing ( that still sucks ) but the Google voice search/actions portion. G1, MyTouch 4g, Galaxy S, G2x, HTC DNA, HTC One etc..
