Which stereo bluetooth headset works with the HD2?
The SonyEricsson HBH-IS800 is really nice, but you cannot control the volume of this headset.
Nokia BH 500
I noticed that! You can't control the volume of any bluetooth A2DP devices. SO STUPID!! There must be a fix for this?
Sony DR-BT21G works as well with my Leo as it does with my Walkman. Volume control and track controls both work. Not too sure that it works with phone calls though, as I haven't yet tried it.

Just bought a Jabra BT3030 which was poor - volume was very low and sound quality was not great. The alternative was the Sony DR-BT21G - whats the volume and music quality like?
im using motorola s9 with wow driver on my leo .all buttons are working and sound is quite good.
Using the Sennheisser MM100 and they work very well.
Cheers

I got a sony DR-BT20NX works very well for movie and music, works well for hadns free too on all phones ive had in the last 2 years and with my PC and PS3, Only problem is the mic is halfway down your chest so not too good when outside.

I've this headset and I can't control the volume even by the phone...
I just ordered some Jaybird JB-200s so I`m hoping this will work with the phone... this phone already cost me a few extra euros just on accesories already and I don`t want a pair of useless earphones... I love JB though...

Hi,
I have this headset also and i'm satisfied with the quality of the sound. The volume is just right for me out of the box. So i didn't notice until now you can't change the volume from the phone.
I added two keys to blue-tooth registry, but i don't think it added to the sound-quality. Maybe there is a key for that volume. Still looking for a tool to do that. What it does do is randomly give me no audio during playback for 3 or 4 seconds :-( (Witch is really annoying). I get compliments from people when i''m on the phone about the audio quality. Even when riding my bike in windy conditions. So thats a good thing. I think the cord could do with another 5 centimeter. I think they forget about the difference in neck size of western people when they developed the thing Japan ;-).
Battery life is better than my old one.
Before this i had the HBH-DS980 on the TYTNII, but the cord broke. This one can display the phonebook and change volume and skip to the next song etc., but i think the size of the HBH-IS800 and sound quality makes up for that.
I'd like to hear from other owners of this device if they experience the same audio interruption problem.
Rgrds, Helssblade.
iam using Sony HBHDS980
Everything works fine including,
1. Music player in manila music tab play,pause,next, prev & volume.
2. Contacts display 7 browsing
3. Call history browsing.
4. In call volume adjustment.
Only problem is,
Need to increase the incall volume after every reconnection.
Nokia BH 503 works great with the LEO. Even coreplayer works with the pause play and next buttons.
Hi,
I'm listening music with the HBH-DS970 Bluetooth headphones.
I noticed, that the soundquality is quite poor, especially the high notes.
Are there any tweaky to improve the soundquality through bluetooth?
Thanks
Philips Taster SHB7110 works perfect!
Hello everybody!
I purchased this headset and works perfectly with my HTC HD2 (I'm installed previously the SRS WOWHD v1.5.1.0). Clear sound (for me) and very comfortable!

I have the same headset and the souns is like am radio,,I think at the problem is in the bluetooth configuration,this phone is coming whit bluetooth 2.1 and maybe this is one of the problems,the another one is att you cant no change the audio parameters in bluetoth like I do in my xperia,so spensive and so meny problems
HBH-IS800
DR-BT160AS...
...is working fine for me.
Everything like Volume, Skipping, Searching, Pause/Play and talking via the headsetfunction ist fine.
Voice is clear at the other end of the "wire"
Really light and works for about 6 hrs. on normal volume (hearing until jogging)
Just got my set of Jaybird JB200...
I had to edit this post and write my updated impressions about the set... The next/prev buttons now work like a charm, even with the main Sense player, which I still prefer over players like PocketPlayer or Core Player... The peering is still kinda sketchy... The phone doesn`t ask for the key of the set and sometimes it does not register Stereo sound from the first try... It seems the way to make it register stereo is having a stereo feed live... like a song playing... The sound itself is very good, I`m satisfied with the quality and the look of the earphones...
If anyone knows a solution for the peering problems please give me a tip...
I use the Apple in-ear headset (http://www.apple.com/ipod/in-ear-headphones/) and love them, however, the play, next, and previous buttons do not seem to have any functionality on my phone.
Has anyone managed to get these or similar working with their N1 and if so, please point me in the right direction.
Thanks!

I've got the i50P or something like that from Sennheiser, they're their $50 in-ears with mic and controls built in designed for iphone, it works fine for me under Mixzing. Anything should work really, try mixzing out.
I've just tried mixzing, seems like an amazing app, but doesn't enable all controls.
single (middle) click for play/pause
double (middle) click to restart
Is there nothing to get all controls? Or even to imitate the N1 headphones.
Nope, there's no standard for stereo headsets. With the addition of volume control, Apple added a microcontroller to the button pod to signal button presses. Some change they made along the way also broke the mic functionality. The original single-button headsets still work, as do compatible accessories. I'm using a Shure adapter with some short-cord earphones for the time being.
I plan to order a second set of HTC earphones and do a podectomy on my Apple IEMs. I figure I can desolder the Apple pod on the right channel cord and wire in the HTC and leave the left channel pads disconnected. As much as I'm down on Apple nowadays, I really like their dual driver IEMs, more than any others I've tried. I'll post info here if I'm successful.
Reviving a dead thread...
Apple Dual Driver In-Ear headphones mic and play/pause button now work with the FroYo FRF50 ROM. Volume controls still don't work, but since the signaling for those is Apple proprietary I'm not holding my breath.
I love the functionality of the N1 headset, but the buds are way too big for my ears!
I can't find anything that has the stop, prev track, next track controls that work with the N1 other than the stock headset.
When I use my Bose In-Ear's on Spotify I have play/pause (1 click) and next track (2 clicks). Good enough for me anyways, although I guess volume controls could be slightly handy.
I'm looking for a set of nicer headphones that would work with the dell streak if anyone know's of any. The stock headphones have poor sound quality and can even have a crackling disturbance, however the mic is perfect. I tried the v-moda remix remote, however the mic does not work. The play button works fine but the volume buttons do not work either (as to be expected). I would like a pair that has first and foremost a superb sound quality with a working mic and if possible a control button that allows to play / pause / answer incoming calls / end calls. Volume control is not of an importance in the least. Are there any suggestions for any that you guys know that works? I will have to return the v-moda and try a different one. I'm looking into the Klipsch Image S4i, but I'm not sure if it will work either. Any information will be much appreciated.
With 71 views since I first posted this it seems people are interested in the possible options as well. So I thought I would give you guys the results after trial and error over many headphones I've tried. I've also discovered that any three button controls inhibit the mic from working. All of these were tested using only the U.S. version of the Dell Streak stock 1.6 rom.
Dell Streak Stock Headphones
Sound Quality - Horrible; It sounded like I was listening to a $3.00 pair from walmart. There seemed to be a constant crackling noise when talking to people or moving.
Mic - The mic is impressive for it being free. However it does seem to pick up a lot of background noise (ex. wrappers, tv, sirens etc.)
Price - Comes with Streak so free.
Comfort - Alright, but seemed to fall out quite often making it more of an annoyance.
Button control - one button that makes a loud clicking sound and can be heard (also just kind of annoying)
Appearance - Look like the aforementioned walmart pair
Klipsch Image S4i
Sound Quality - Good, not great but to be better than any Skull Candies you can buy. This also had a lot of clicking sound while using these in a phone call using the phone's mic (not the ones on the headphones)
Mic - Did not work on the dell streak
Price - $99
Comfort - Seemed a little heavy but alright
Button control - three button in which the play button will activate the playing of music (in or out of app), answer a call, mute a call, end a call, skip track, go to previous track, and pause track
Appearance - Good
Shure SE210
Sound Quality - Good treble but horrible bass. Great with sound isolation, hard to hear anything around you.
Mic - N/A
Price - $139
Comfort - 1) The cord seems to be too long and can get in the way. 2) The foam ear pieces were really annoying seeing that you had to decompress them to go into your ear. 3) The 3.5mm jack sticks straight out and for the Streak in your pocket this can be a pretty big issue for me
Button control - N/A
Appearance - These look like something you would see off of Startrek (the old kind) They stick out of your ear pretty far.
V-MODA Remix Remote
Sound Quality - Good, but very disappointing compared to their previous V-MODA Vibes which had sound of perfection of it's price range three years ago. This also had a lot of clicking sound while using these in a phone call using the phone's mic (not the ones on the headphones)
Mic - Did not work on the dell streak
Price - $99
Comfort - Alright but if you are laying down they will hurt
Button control - three button. The control buttons seemed like it would be very easy to break. Play button will activate the playing of music (in or out of app), answer a call, mute a call, end a call, skip track, go to previous track, and pause track
Appearance - Great appearance, hand crafted metal, sleek design, barely noticeable.
V-MODA faze
Sound Quality - Horrible for the price. They literally sounded no better than the stock dell streak headphones except for the fact that they would crackle every time I spoke made a sound or moved. Not a faint crackle either.
Mic - alright but people said I seemed distant
Price - $49
Comfort - Alright but if you are laying down they will hurt
Button control - One button with a loud click and hard to get to. Made of cheap plastic. Play button will activate the playing of music (in or out of app), answer a call, mute a call, end a call, skip track, go to previous track, and pause track
Appearance - Good appearance, hand crafted metal, sleek design except for the button control. The button control looks like it was made from lego plastic or something.
After a long bit of 2 days trying out headphones buying/returning and spending hours of researching online I had lost all hope. I heard that Bose had released some new headphones but Bose didn't have the best rep with their headphones (great rep for headsets and surround sound / normal for headphones and car systems) My friend talked me into trying them because he knew someone who loved them. So I went to the store and was blown away and immediately bought them.
Bose MIE2
Sound Quality - Seriously the best headphones I've ever listened to. However with the music you are listening to, make sure it's around 256kbps (can be less just higher than 128kbps) or these headphones will pick up things not normally heard with lower quality tracks. There is 0 crackling. Superb bass and treble with a strong sound and unbelievable range. Only complaint is that the sound leaks out a little bit so if you are listening to loud music people around you will probably hear it. This is probably due to the ability to hear around you if you are not playing music (aka talking on the phone with these). I can still hear people walking or anything as if I didn't have any headphones in if I'm talking, however music playing cuts this down dramatically. Keep in mind these are not noise isolating nor noise canceling. This can be a benefit if you are using it for talking as much as listening to music.
Mic - Friends say they can hear me crystal clear, up close and loud. Seems to block most background sound.
Price - $129
Comfort - With them in you can lay on your ear without feeling them in. With the new design of the tips they are not forced into your ear canal but are sitting in it with support from the area surrounding your ear canal. One can run with them in and not have a problem or worry about them falling out and can barely tell that you are even wearing headphones.
Button control - one button on the right ear cord. Hard to get used to because it's up high but is a great place for the better sounding mic and the button is really easy to press because it covers the entire strip of the mic. Play button will activate the playing of music (in or out of app), answer a call, mute a call, end a call, skip track, go to previous track, and pause track
Appearance - Good appearance, outside looks like metal but is actually plastic. The cord is half white and half black (don't understand why they did this but oh well). You would think that the outer ear support previously mentioned would look tacky, but you can't even really see it. Plus if it does annoy you it comes with the normal inner ear only attachments.
I am very happy I found these in which truly restored my faith in Bose headphones. I suggest that anyone who's looking for a good pair to at least go to the store and try them, they will not disappoint. If any of you decide to look into buying these make sure you don't mix the MIE2 with the IE2 (which is just the headphones no mic) nor with the MIE2i (which is the same thing as the MIE2 but it has the three buttons there for making it not work with the Dell Streak and practically only with Apple products I believe).
I hope this will help some of you because music quality is a big thing to me, as is the ease of talking to people (the dell streak is hard to hold on to while talking and driving). Let me know if you guys have tried any others and your opinions of them using the Streak. Thanks!
I find that the streak is pretty awful for listening to music due to constant background hissing/static. I'm guessing the audio DAC is crappola. Do you also have static issues?
It's mostly noticeable in quiet environments when I play the music softly so that I can still hear what's going on around me. You can also hear the static start and stop when you start and stop music, including a "click" which I guess corresponds to the audio DAC being turned on.
Do any of these headphones make the static somewhat more bearable? The static volume seems to be constant regardless of the audio volume, so maybe headphones with a lower sensitivity would improve things?
the apple headphones also work. both the cheap one that comes with the iphones and the $79 in-ear one at the apple store. the in-ear is much better and is one of the few headphones that deserve that price. the volume buttons dont work unfortunately but the middle button does. basically, any mic'd headphones that work with iphones will work because its the same standard.

Yes, the bose MIE2 do not have any static from my experience with them. There is no static talking, nor listening to music loud or softly. I'm very happy with these.

This is not exactly the case. As you can seen in my review (the 2nd post) that the v-moda remix control that were made for iPhone and the mic does not work. I bought these from the apple store and the sound works well but the mic does not work. Can you confirm that the mic on the iPhone in ear headphones with 3 button control does work with the Dell Streak? Because I haven't been able to find headphones with 3 buttons to work with the Dell Streak in referring to mic capabilities. As previously mentioned I'm very happy with the bose MIE2 one button headphones.
Also I'm curious to see if there is any static with the iPhone headphones?

I can confirm that for the 3 button iPhone/iPod headset, the mic does not work with the Streak. I think it has something to do an "apple chip" that these and other compatible headsets use. Also, the iPhone/iPod headset has the same level of static as the headset that came with the Dell streak.
GREAT review, and much appreciated. I've been holding off on buying any headsets because I didn't even know where to start. Been a long time fan of Shure (though not their price), but that Bose headset sounds just about perfect for me and right in the price range I was looking for...
v-moda vibe II
I have just received my V-moda vibe II headphones and they seem to be working very well. I have used v-moda headphones for while now and this pair does not disappoint. It's a bit heavy on the low end of the spectrum but I personally like that. All of the buttons work with streak in the same manner as the original headset that came with the streak. They have cords wrapped in kevlar so it should be tangle free. Overall I would highly recommend them for use with streak.
I'm using sony ericsson MW_600 bluetooth media earphones, mic is spot on, display will be ideal when bluetooth profiles are compatible, built in fm radio is cool, sound quality is impressive (3.5mm jack so you can use your own too), easy to use & supports upto 5 devices at once, built in battery lasts ages (micro usb charge) & its really compact & small... the hands free call button is well designed too. Buttons incl. FFW, RW, PLAY/PAUSE, POWER/PAIR, CALL/REDIAL, small lcd display & the volume is a sensor sliding style strip. I paid £40 del but amazon now sell them for £30 (if they drop any cheaper, I'm buying a second pair just incase, they're that good!)

disabling touch screen when using remote
Hi all,
I'm using meridian as its good for driving. problem is i've noticed (I dunno if its the same for other players) but when my headset is connected and i press the remote button (ie to play or pause), the touch screen is activated and as its in my pocket the phone thinks i'm pressing all kinds of stuff! Is there any way of disabling the homescreen from activating when i press the remote button. You'd think somethink as simple as this would have a work around in the settings or something but I can't find it. I've tried looking through tasker but they don't have an event for 'remote button pressed'.
any ideas would be great

I use mixzing & they have a lockscreen option too, you can disable the screen popping up evrytime a new track starts, maybe yours is the same? I would definitely recommended mixzing if you can't fix it & want to try a different player

for DAC issue, i don't think so, see gsmarena's review here:
http://www.gsmarena.com/dell_streak-review-531p5.php
direct headphone sounds ok with my AKG 26P, even with my Senn HD-555
bluetooth A2DP/AVRCP works very well with my SE HBH-DS980
headset w/mic i would like to see which one work well, because i tried the headset w/mic from my Omnia II (replacable headphone type) and it sound terribly hollow with much static and echo... even when i change the headphones...
all still in donut
I bought the Sony MW-600 based on the recommendation in this thread. Paired with a set of Etymotic ear buds and couldn't be happier. All the buttons work, quality is excellent.
Being able to select your own headset is the only way to go - I just couldn't find a mic enabled set I liked.

I just want to say thanks for the mention of the MW-600. It really is a rather impressive little piece of kit and I would not have known about it otherwise.
Thanks for this CLburns! quite pricey them bose though some holiday gift maybe if they're good like you said.

No problem. Some people at my university tried them out, then a week later 4/8 bought them. They are well worth the money i spent. If you do get them I would suggest listening to higher bit music such as 256kbps+. 128 just doesnt seem to give the "ahh" perspective that it would with lower quality headphones. Ive started redownloading my music library to accommodate the high performance, and these headphones make all the difference in the world.
I'm pleased to hear that my review was helpful for everyone!

Anyone knows what are good headphones w/remote and mic for Nexus S? I tried Sony MDR-EX38iP, but encountered two problems: <major> sound volume is very low, and <minor> volume up/down buttons don't work. Any ideas/suggestions?
these are the ones i use. http://www.amazon.com/Atomic-Earpho...JDB6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1293580222&sr=8-1
graemegb, do all the remote functions work, e.g. track skip?
I have a pair of iPhone compatiable earphones (Ultimate Ears SuperFi v5i) and only the pause/resume function works. Was the same with the HTC HD7 and Desire HD.
I'm not too fussed about Volume, would just like to be able to skip tracks.
no, the play/pause button works but nothing else
SE MW600 still the best! l2dp and controls.
I have Bose MIE2 and Sennheiser MM60.
The button only works with play/pause.
I'd suggest going for AIAIAI y-com headphones, although they do not include a remote inline for volume. They are great though and I've had them for about a year with no complaints.
Check out http://www.aiaiai.dk/headsets/y-com/y-com-grey.html
I have the grey ones, but they also come in black. Make sure you go for the Y-Com and not the Y-model, those do not have the mic.
You don't have to buy them from their website, a quick search will yield local results for shopping.
I use Sony HBH-IS800 Bluetooth Headphones - basically just two buds connected by a wire. They only have one button which plays/pauses music or answers an incoming call. Good sound quality.
Beats by Dre only has a mic though

Hello Everyone,
I have a Moto Milestone. I would like to use Milestone as MP3 player. I plugged the original Milestone headset and the sound quality was awful. There was no sub bass at all!) From that time, I used my previous phone (Nokia N73) as MP3 player (it's sound is extremely good compare to Milestone.)
Today I got a Nokia headset with a voice call button on it. I plugged it to my Milestone and the sound was awful, BUT if I push the button on the Headset the sound of the Milestone become extremely beautiful, I hear sub basses and higher sounds too.
Can anyone has idea for this? Can someone tell me, how will such a good voice come from Milestone's original headset?
Thanks.

Hi There,
There is no one, who has this problem?
I just use DSP Manager and poweramp's EQ to adjust the audio. Now I get really good audio from it after massive tweaking.
Still not as good as my old Archos Gmini400.
Also I re-read your post and that thing with the headset button is weird as hell.
I just use fairly high end headphones. (AKG K518LE)

Thanks for the answer. But it is true. I use a Sony-Ericsson X10 mini's headset and if I push the button in the headset, the sound quality became as same as my Sennheiser HD435.
I'm thinking about short-circuited the headset's button ...
