Bluetooth + Armband Phone Case for Exercising Question

Anyone know of a good combination of bluetooth headset and armband phone case to use with the Cardiotrainer app on the HTC Incredible? The last bluetooth set I got moved around too much... my guess is I would need a bluetooth headset that was stereo and hooked together. Also with the armband... I just don't want it sliding around too much Any ideas?

I use the backbeat bluetooth headset. Work great for me, only issue is that there is no button to control the music. Still trying to find a good armband to work on the Incredible.

I have the motorola s9 that i used with my touchpro and really like them not sure on the armband yet

S9 are not sweat proof unfortunately, the buttons stop working, great set other wise.

I use a Jabra BT3030 with a pair of Sennheiser earbuds. It's nice and does the job without being a burden. You can find them for reasonable prices on ebay. Because the earbud cables are long the Jabra is usually runs under my shirt and into my pocket.
I had an iTech clip radio for the same purpose and it was the worst piece of tech garbage I've even owned.

So has anyone found a good armband yet for the Dinc? I figure someone must have found a decent one by now

Has anyone had an issue with the music skipping when walking or running? I've tried the Backbeat and S9 on two incredibles. Both have done this. Its fine when just laying around, but the smallest motion and it skips.

I second this. I used the same **Belkin Iphone/Ipod** armband on my old HTC Tilt. And I have no idea why you want to listen to music on a bluetooth headset. There is no way the degraded sound quality and increased battery consumption is worth it just to not have wires. Also , I don't have an issue with headphone cables getting in the way. And if you want to be able to answer the phone, dont worry about it. Plug in the headphones and make a call. try it. the microphone on the phone picks up your voice just fine.

Supposedly the issue is caused by the headset jack thinking control signals are being sent to it by your headset. This is why people have reported better performance with higher quality headphones that have gold contacts, less interference. A cheaper solution is to download the Headset Blocker widget from the marketplace which prevents the supposed signals from having any effect on your music app. Do note that if you have a controller on your headset the widget will block all of its controls too.

The armband case that you seek is this one!
I bought the TuneBelt from Amazon for like $20 before the holidays. It keeps my phone safe, sweat free, and you can even buy a little extender belt if you plan on running with heavier clothes on like a sweatshirt. Great buy!

RTFM ... hold the volume up or volume down to change tracks w/ the backbeat headset.
I have experienced the music skip issue as well so I'll have to give the headset blocker app a try.

Sound and Bluetooth Headphones

"Hearing' that people are saying the sound is 'crap' (their words), I was wondering if anyone has had a chance to try a decent set of bluetooth earbuds or headphones?
I would like something with a full range, good highs and lows. I have a decent pair of corded Sennheisers that I used to use with my TF101 Transformer, but I am afraid the SQ may be as bad as others are saying.
These have decent reviews:

I use a Sony MW600 with my phones (n7 hasn't arrived yet, but plan on using the MW600 with it as well). I think that the Smart Wireless Headset pro replaced the MW600, but not 100% sure.
I *totally* recommend the mw600's (and I'm assuming the newer Smart Wireless Headset pro will be similar in quality). The sound quality is excellent. I'd call myself a casual audiophile... I appreciate good sound even if I don't have a "golden ear". I really don't detect any difference between the BT audio and direct cable with the same headphones.
So that being said, I used the mw600s till the included ear buds (in ear buds, not quite IEMs) wore out. I now use the teeny MW600 with my Sennheiser HD25 SPs. LOVE THIS COMBINATION. It's amazing how long the MW600 drives the HD25s, how loud and clear the audio can be.
And the Sony BT dongle handles calls as well, of course.
Get it (or the smart wireless headset pro, I'd assume they are similar in quality, but best to research) and the HD25 SPs and you're golden.
Note that I did recable my HD25 SPs and built a split cable that pigtails short off of the headphones so I can clip the Sony dongle to my shirt, along with an extension if I'm using the HD25s hardwired.

I currently use some MM400 sennheisers, works great on my N7, iPhone ect
The forward/backwards function works too!

I use a set of JayBird Freedoms that I use with my Motoactv and my GS2. Sound quality is pretty similar to my Bose IE2's. They carry good range, highs and lows. I have read that they have a great warranty and good customer support. Luckily I have not had to put it to the test yet.

Jaybirds here also. I've had them for about 8 months and love them.

If you are looking for bluetooth, make sure it has the apt-x codec. It makes your audio files sound like a wired headset. I use the HTC stereoclip in my car and for my EVO LTE. The soun difference is amazing. The samsung hs3000 has it also and they come with earbuds and it is only $34 on Amazon. Look on the Evo lte forums under accessories to learn more.

Has anyone used the LG Tone - HBS700 Wireless Bluetooth Headset? Looks like it has good reviews and it would be comfortable to wear. I'm debating on buying it. I listen to music relatively frequently as i'm out and about and would like to go wireless for convenience, but not sure if it is an absolute necessity.

Bluetooth audio is about convenience, but there really are some gems out there for audio quality.
I'm still using a 5+ year old set of Jabra bluetooth headphones I bought new from Tigerdirect when they mysteriously went on sale for $25 shipped.. and a few days later they went back up to the normaly $125... not before me advising a bunch of co-workers at the time and letting them try them out.
This was when Bluetooth 2.1+edr was pretty cutting edge, and for wireless headphones they sound fantastic.
That being said, when I get my Nexus 7 16gb pre-order in, I'll test them out... but on a new device I have no doubts they'll sound great.
I also have an old pair of KOSS headphones, with full range, but they look ridiculous with large bold print on each ear, but they sound great.
I'd update that, but I rarely wear headphones while at home. I work for a large Canadian Bank doing internal IT, and I wear a monural plantronics headphone most of the day, so I give my ears a break after hours.

Get the LG Tone+ HBS-730, search on amazon (I can't post links yet.). I have the first generation of the LG Tone HBS-700 the sound quality is alright if you aren't an audiophile. I've read that the sound quality is better in the 730s. The style of these make them perfect to wear under a collared shirt. I use them everyday and get about 3-5 days worth of listening between charges. The headset even vibrates when you get a call.

I have the Sony MW600. LINK. I love them. The majority of the time I only want to keep one ear bud in, and with these I can do that. You can also use any kind of headphones with them.

I had the Plantronics BB903+'s. I thought their sound quality was really good, and I was all excited to use them with my phone when I go mountain biking. I got so insanely frustrated with the sound cutting out every now and then that I stopped using them. A day later, my dog ate them. Eh, whatever. :good:
As I read around through reviews of other comparable bluetooth headsets I can't help but to question that perhaps audio skipping is somewhat common. As a result, I've personally chosen to stick to traditional headphones. That being said, I'm super curious if anybody has experience with bluetooth headphones that DON'T cut out at all. Eh?

i love my jaybird freedoms. the only thing that is even remotely annoying about them is they charge with a mini usb, other than that, they're light, have great sound and super comfortable. before that i tried a pair of moto ones that were just an all 'round unpleasant experience.

Thanks for suggestions guys, will mull it over :thumbup:

I have both of those units. The trade off is; HBS-700 ok sound, but long BT range (25ft) vs. HBS-730 better sound, but short BT range (10ft).

Sony Ericsson MW600 user here as well. I love that lil sucker. I use my Shure SE215's (clear) and any headsets I can muster like my Sol Republic Amps HD or Sol Republic Ultra's or whatever you have and like. I mean the sound is not like it is when plugged directly in, but sound better than stock nonetheless. :laugh:

I just ordered a pair of Sennheiser MM 100's, will update with how they are once I get them.

I have the sony wireless headset pro, the new one. It is really good, it has wolfson audio for the decoder and even takes a micro sd card. It is easily the best bluetooth headphones I have tried sound quality wise.

I was looking at those but they were a bit out of my price range
I got my MM 100's in today, and I'm impressed. Very clear audio for something this size, as expected from Sennheiser. They feel a bit cheap but I think that's more in the interest of making them light rather than saving money. I don't think they're worth the retail price ($150 ), but I got mine factory refurbished from a seller on amazon for around $40 and they came looking brand new, in refurb packaging of course.
Since I paired these with my phone first I tried call quality, and nobody had any issues understanding me.
EDIT: After some more listening it seems these headphones are lacking in bass... not that there isn't enough volume, but it is literally cutting out frequencies.

I hava nokia bh214 stereo bluetooth ,it's perfect for music & talk

I use the Sony Ericsson MW600, great batterytime, you can use whatever headphones you want and now it's almost for free.
Bought the Sony WS1, little on the expensive side but have alot of functions, same as the MW600 you can use other headphones but the ones that comes with are exellent, SD-slot only drawback is the batterytime...

I use a set of Motorola SF600's and a Plantronics M155 (for single ear A2DP goodness while hiking).
My thoughts on the SF600 are far different than moth peoples, apparently. I love them. I have had zero issues with them, and I am tough on them. They sound PHENOMENAL and the range is incredible. They also support Apt-X, but since the Nexus 7 doesn't, that isn't really a concern. Apt-X is awesome though.
The Plantronics is... OK. It rattles at high volume, and is generally annoying, but its great for the group hikes I go on (for when I am tired of hearing people whine and blabber on ) and it is really good for listening to music in the office.

The reviews that I read about the 730's were that they were a downgrade. Owners of the 700 and the 730 said to not get the 730.
They also said that more than 5' away or loss of line of sight caused the 730s to drop out.

Looking for a Stereo BT headset for Workout and Movies

I am looking for some help. Now that I have a tablet and I am trying to find a good BT stereo headset for it. I am going to mostly use the headset for listening to my tablet for movies and doing items on my tablet where I do not want to bug my wife and others.
I am also going to want to use it with my phone when I am working out or working on items where a tablet is just too big to have around. I went to Best Buy and they stated to use the Jaybird ones. They are going to take a large chunk out of my wallet. I am trying to find what else is out there and would have good sound quality and bass for movies but can take getting all sweating in a work out.
Thank you for any help or tips on this. Just kind of stuck right now.

You can also look at getting a receiver that has a headphone jack and use the headphone of choice.

Motorola has some water resistant ones but they are trash. Go with the jaybirds. I have several friends with them and they work great, and don't short out.

I have a Sony mw600 receiver that works pretty well. And with a standard 3.5 mm jack you can use any headset you want.
It's not as "clean" as a pure bt headset, but it's a lot more flexible. It has fm radio as well, a nice addition.
The only downside I found is the touch/pressure/whatever sensitive volume slider is a bit fiddly.
There is supposedly a newer version out, mw600s, but no idea about the changes and/or improvements.

I've used the Motorola S9 and now the S10 bluetooth stereo headsets. The S9 I sent back at least 4 times because sweat gets into the buttons and when you press up or down on them it sticks the contact and acts as if you are holding it down. I finally got out of the warranty period and found that if I put them on the airconditioner return (on the floor) for a few days they work fine. I have to say that the S10 has not had that problem. In both cases, the "in ear" nature of the S9 and S10 do not fit me well. Of course fit is highly subjective so take it for what it's worth.
The S9 had better sound to me than the S10 and was easier to control (when there wasn't sweat behind the buttons). On the S10 I have to really press the buttons hard to activate them. The pads on the end of each side on the S10 came off in the first week. They were stuck on with what is essentially double sided tape. I tried to glue one back on with super glue which just hardened the semi-soft pad into a wrinkled mess. I used a dremel with an abrasive buffer tip to smooth it down.
Finally, the soft ear tips on the S10 come off almost every time I take the headset off. Of course the headset is useless if you loose the tips...well, it works, but is pretty uncomfortable in your ears. The one good experience was that I called Motorola and they sent me a bag of the tips for free. So now I have (I think) 6 pairs, two each of each size. No hassle from customer service. I was ready to pay something, but they just sent them for free.
I'm in the market for some new stereo headphones for the gym. They must be bluetooth, take calls, and have controls on them. The problem is that it's an expensive game of hit or miss on fit and function although I can return them to BestBuy if needed.
It might seem that I'm down on the S9 and S10. In general, I like the way they fit around my neck, I just wish they would nail it instead of staying at about 80%.
Just my 2 cents.

I have a Sennheiser pxc 310, it's a very good device, but the big problem with bluetooth, movie and nexus 7, is the latency between sound and pictures.
I have the galaxy note 2 and there is no such problem, maybe the apt-x codec solve the problem.

Give the LG HBS-700 a shot. I use them for everything from work, to tv, to working out at the gym.
They sound decent and have a decent battery life.
My only gripe with them is that they slip a little when on the bench.

I'm using the LG HBS700 with So Slim Rom and the sound/video is very laggy and choppy over BT. Even when I play local files or ones over the network. I even tried watching a movie on Netflix. If I stop the video and plug in some headphones directly, it works fine. Anyone else have this problem? Might have to try a different Rom.

I have this problem on the stock ROM, if you do some searching apparently it's a common bug introduced recently.
It's pretty disappointing as I got a Jabra clip to make listening while on the treadmill easier and it's just skippy as hell.

I'm not sure what level of sound quality you're looking for, but a refurbished pair of Motorola S10HDs will pop up on woot.com every couple of weeks for 25$. I picked a pair up, and they're not the best sounding headphones in the world, but they work very well.

You should get something from jaybirdgear. Their headphones are sweat proof they have earbud versions as well. Personally I have a pair of the sportsband 2 and the Blue Buds X. The Blue Buds are realy expensive the Sportsband is only like $100
They both sound very good but blue buds have some of the crispest sound I've ever heard.

I second the bluebud X's. For the price they are expensive but I barely use my soul sl99's or other headphones anymore.

Hmm, reading Amazon comments about LG 700 vs 730. People are saying 730 will have better sound quality and other fancier controls, BUT they keep cutting out and loosing connection in comparison to 700? I can't figure out if that's in case of people just leaving their phone 10ft away or when you have your phone in the pocket and/or desk next to you and connection breaking up? Can anybody comment on that?

That hasn't been my experience at all. Great range for me. When I used them at the gym I'd frequently walk away from my phone and the sound wouldn't break up until I was halfway across the gym floor (which is a substantial distance)

I just order lg tone 730 because of the reviews and your guys experience. Thanks for the help guys.

I have 730's and love them... 10 hours playback time.... they last long than my phone! (with an extended battery lol)

I tried jaybirds and had issues with skipping. Got another pair of Rocketfish at Best Buy. Not the greatest design or sound quality but work good for me.

Can you use the lg tone 730's with google navigation and hear the directions?
If you are listening to music and the navigation speaks will the lg tone 730's pass on the navigation info or just continue the music?

I just bought some Henson Audio BT033 (I think that is the model) and am very impressed with them.
Not earbuds, great bass and tone. Strong volume and they fold away. They have AVRCP controls on them that work fine. They charge via micro usb and have a 3.5mm Jack connection if you don't want to use Bluetooth.
Finally, great for calls with the built in Mic.
