Headset not working... - Galaxy Note II Accessories

Gents (and ladies if there are any about)...
I have a problem with my Note II and am hoping someone can help me out. It's a 7105 and the supplied in-ear headset (with mic/vol buttons) appears to work fine. However, another wired headset that I have (Astro A40) does not. This headset worked fine with all my other phones, including a Nexus S, as headphones and as a handsfree kit (i.e. with microphone functionality etc).
In the Note II, they will only work as headphones, as soon as I try to make a phone-call the little "headset" icon disappears and the audio reverts to the in-built earpiece/mic.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this may be and what I can do to resolve it? Will my headset (which is awesome BTW) just not work with the Note II?
Any help/tips appreciated.

Problems with Bluetooth Connection on the Tilt

I just got a pair of Jabra BT8010 for my Tilt and was looking forward to enjoying them but they won't play music for me. The Jabra BT8010 has a regular BT headset that works like any other BT set but it also has a cable you can attach and make it into a stereo headset with another ear bud. You press a mode button to turn on the stereo/music function.
However, the music function of the headset is on and I can control the media player but either the sound plays for about 10 seconds and goes out or no sound comes through the headset at all. Jabra & ATT were no help. HTC claimed that phone doesn't work with this BT set because the device must have a dedicated BT music headset. That sounded shady to me so I decided to check several forums and noticed some people use the same model. I've contacted these people but no reply yet. Anyone have advice on what to do for a fix?
I had the same problem at first. Using the menu on the headset itself, I was able to reset it to the factory settings, repair it with my phone, and it worked just fine after that.
Hope that helps you out.

[Q] Bluetooh Controls

I have a Jabra BT3030 and paired it with my Galaxy S.
Stereo sound works fine, but my gripe is that none of the bluetooth controls work (back, pause/play, forward). I tried this with another headset (altec), but is still doesn't work. The volume controls work fine though.
Has anyone experienced this?
Is this an android limitation or is it just with the Galaxy?
btw, my firmware is JM7 in case it might be with the firware...

The buttons work fine on my platronics bt. Wait for froyo official as its said to have improved bt headset features
working fine with
Jabra BT8010
Motorola HT820
my car CZ509
and a few other older BT stereo headsets from Sony, Plantonic, etc
I'll suggest to pair it again.
the controls are usually 1 touch for pause/play, double tap for skip next, unless it has its own buttons for that, and... well lots of other combos depending on the buttons setup on the headsets
@allgamer
paired it again and still a no go. it has its own buttons for play/pause, forward, back, volume, answer. basically, its a bluetooth module where i can plug my own earphones.
it's working flawlessy with my omnia hd.
do you know what bluetooth profiles our galaxy s supports?

not exactly, but i do know it supports all the standard stereo, a2dp, avrcp, file transfer, contacts, GPS, phone calls, the only things not supported are HID mouse and keyboard
hmm... something doesnt add up... maybe the rom since i havent tried it with prev firmwares. i'll try pairing again.

I have the same issue. Use SBH650 bt. But it appears only in standart player. I also use Ambling Player for audio books and it works fine with it. My firmware is JM2. Re-pairing doesn't solve this issue.
I'm using Sony Ericsson MW600 & DS980.. both seems fine..
still no go for me... seems the answer/end key does work, as well as the volume keys. so only my playback, fw/rew key don't work. but when i press them, the screen lights up and the touch buttons light up too. i'll try experimenting with a diff player and see if it's just with the samsung misuc player.
OT: DaRkMyk, where'd you get the SE MW600? I've been looking for that for a while now.
MW600 and Galaxy S
I see that a few people use the MW600 with the Galaxy S. I recently bought a MW600, the device is paired to the phone, plays music fine with all the controls working. It is also the default calling device. And this is where I have a problem, when I make or receive a call the called/calling party can hear me clearly but I can't hear anything. I have turned up the volume to max, I have also reset the MW600 and repaired it with the device, turned off the wi-fi on the Galaxy S,. Basically tried most of the solutions that are available. Has anyone else had this problem. I tried the MW600 with some other phones (Nokia X6) and had the exact same problem.
@aridoasis I bought mine here in singapore for S$118. I don't know if it is available there in the Philippines, but you can always buy from eBay & it's also cheaper.
@sandsri I never experienced that problem, have you tried your MW600 on other mobile phones?

3-wire Wired Headset Compatibility

Has anyone found a wired headset that works with the Xperia Play? My R800at tells me Accessory Not Supported when I insert my iPhone headset.
I got my phone secondhand, so if there was a bundled (unique) headset, I did not receive one.
I used a Samsung JET (S8000) Headset with it and worked just fine...
also the Samsung S5630 (tocco?) headset worked ok, but i Think you can't use the answer button on it... (too bad)
anyway I purchased a BT Headset... MW600 and IT WORKS GREAT for Music, handsfree and gaming... also FM Radio (which the PLAY lacks and my older samsung phones got)
Regards
My blackberry stock headphones work with the xperia play.
The iPhone uses it's own custom thing. Everything else should be cross-brand compatible

[Q] BT Headset Problem.

I have a problem with BT Headset + Bose MIE2i Mobile Headset Combination..
It Would NOT work together.. Each thing alone works perfectly, but not together.
i have just bought Samsung HM3700 which supports 3.5mm headset, so I connected it to Bose MIE2I headset I was using before.
the problem is that when i turn music or video on, all i hear is little bit of music and alot of noises.
But when i keep pressing 'talk button' on bose while playing music, the sound is so clean and crisp.
Does anyone have had same kindof trouble and If anyone knows how to fix this problem, please let me know!
Thank you!

Bluetooth Microphone not working

I have 2 pairs of bluetooth headphones, each with a built-in microphone. My phone (galaxy s10) however, refuses to use those microphones. When I plug in wired headphones I can use the mic without a problem.
But when I connect my bluetooth headphones, the microphone simply doesn't work. I've looked through every option but can't seem to find a way to use the microphone.
Does android10/samsung even support bluetooth microphones? Is there any option I've overlooked?
Hi,
I can confirm I am having this exact issue with Galaxy A40.
Can you tell me if recording of the Bluetooth mic works if you use the MicTest (by Laureano) app form the app store?
This works great for me. Which tells me the mics in my case (a plantronic and a jabra) both work just fine.
But when it comes to calling and using other apps (Teams, Whatsapp, Samsung voice recorder) the phone just defaults to the internal microphone.
Is there a setting missing here?
