Hi,
I'm somewhat of a noob regarding Tytn/Hermes updates etc. Hopefully someone can help me with this problem.
I just bought a Jabra BT620s bluetooth headphone. Connecting works but when I play music in Windows Mediaplayer, the music sometimes stops as if it's buffering a stream.
Does anyone know if this has something to do with a bad connection or should I install some other musicplayer on my PDA? Or is it because the Jabra is just a worthless headphone?
thanks in advance
this has been noticed by several folks now. also problems such as slowing down and speeding up of the audio.
My tests have concluded that i couldnt run my bluetooth head set and bluetooth gps at the same time. on its own the headset was great.
Check you have nothing running as well as wmp also if it is an a2dp headset do a search for the way to add support somewhere on here.. sorry dont know the link.
Music skipping on me as well
I just bought the BT620 - and tried several music players - they all skip. Sometimes I can get thru an entire song and other times it skips so bad as to cal it worthless. The speed up and slow down pitch is very annoying.
Is the issue the headset or the BT stack the MDA uses.
Is there a fix/hack ?
Thanks
I just purchased the Cingular 8525 and BT620s. I can only get the headphones to work as a telephone headset. They will not work with the media player at all, the sound comes from the handset everytime. I have tried pairing them several times, but with no success. Any ideas?

Same Problem. But my BT620s does not work with AVM Blue!Fritz, MDA3 nor with a Logitech DiNovo Desktop. I'm getting angrrrry...
Actually, I got it fixed. With the headset on, and paired, goto the communications manager (second button down on the right side of the handset) and click on settings>bluetooth settings. Then go to the Devices tab. If the heaset is paired with the 'phone you will see it in the list. Click and hold the stylus on the Jabra BT620s item and a pop-up menu will appear. Select "Set as Wireless Stereo". Majically the 620s headset will start flashing both earphones (instead of just one) and it works fine. The headset will automatically switch from phone mode to A2DP mode from that point on. It's slick. I have not encountered the buffering problem reported by others.
Good luck...
Just got my bt620s's and am having the same issue. thought that reducing the quality with fit4cat would work, but nothing seems to fix it. also, for some reason the X-button functionality of spb pocketplus is gone when listening to music with my 8525. After pairing the headphones with my G5, sound quality is worse then than that of the 8525, but I experienced no pauses or skips with the computer, however massive pauses (almost a minute) with the 8525. Tried using mortplayer and wmp. I think these are getting returned unless any of you have found a fix in the meantime. Not to mention the entire phone slows to a crawl, not good.
I too use the Jabra BT620s with the 8525. I also have buffering problems. However, the Jabra also freezes (i.e., locks) the 8525. Bottom line, the Jabra BT620s is being returned.
Hi, I just posted a new thread where I explained how I got the whole thing working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293054

Mono instead of Stereo !?!?
Mind the fix of CrazyBrit above, it made the BT 620s jump to Audio mode (both earpieces flashing). The problem with interupted streams got fixed once I shut the WLAN / WIFI function of while listening to music. Remember: WLAN and BT use the same frequency band. In a "normal" data stream interferences are a side issue, but in realtime streams - fatal.
However, even that everything seemed fine with my set, I only hear MONO audio, ie. the left and the right earpiece give exactly the same audio. Now i am stuck. Any hint for me? I got a Swisscom / Vodafone v1605 OEM of the HTC TyTN plus the BT620s. Anybody aware of a firmware update, a software fix or a tricky setting?
Thanks,

Well guys ....
I used to have the skipping issue as well , seems to be either a a2dp hack issue , or the ROM is too slow to handle streaming and decoding siultaneously !
Not any more .......
I started using XM6 , and WOW , I can run pocket player without overclocking , and I can finally get pocketmusic to run smoothly and stream a2dp !
So give it a try , worked for me , may work for u !
I am running the bt620s with wm6, everythnig works beautifully. It also worked great with wm5, but 6 is better.
Now for me, these 2 settings made a world of difference as far as quality goes:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/Bitpool=60
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/MaxSupportedBitpool=35 (or greater)

I bought this headset and so far its been good for the price. It was like 25 shipped on ebay. Only gripe is that it can only do volume on the headset, no back/forward.
It works and sounds fine on my 8125, however I do hear slight crackling throughout songs. Im sure i could help it with some tweaking.
But my real problem is that it doesnt seem to work with my dongle. So im calling out anyone who has a pc850 and a stereo headset. What do you use to connect through bluetooth, "Audio Gateway" or "Audio Headset". My jensens only allow me to use audio headset. When I connect I start to hear static on the jensens but thats it, no audio is passed, even though the status shows good signal. 0 bytes are transfered and received.
However, when I connect in headset mode, I do get the prompt that a high quality audio connection has been found, and the message "the next time an audio player is opened, audio output will be sent to bluetooth. So its quite confusing. First I dont know which connection to use, then I can only use one, 'audio headset'. then it seems it works, then I get no output.
Looking at a review of the ht820, i think the reviewer used Audio Gateway, which is why im asking.
to test i have been using windows media player 11 and some mp3s, wavs, avis. also are you suppose to hear audio through your speakers once the headset is connected? because I do and i thought that was odd.
Just to throw this out there too, one, and i mean ONE time i tried to connect, It was actually sending information, but it was the ring you get when someone is calling on the headset. also I could see info being transfered from pc to headset through the status page.
Also to note the dongle works fine with activesync and the 8125. which is great because it would be useless at this point if that didnt work.
How did you get it to pair with the 8125?
So the issue I have, ..
I can pair the two devices, and in bluetooth settings, I can find the wbt212, set up as a hands free device, .. when I go to make a call, it doesn't auto-connect to the headset, and the "turn on hands free" is grayed out. The headset never stops blinking the fast 3 blinks.
Was there something special you had to do?

Hi, I am using the tornado a2dp fix and got A2DP working with a Sony bluetooth headphone set and the sound is great but it stutters. I tried WMA and even the HTC music player and its still the same (although a little better with WMA).
Is anyone else having these issues?
I may try updating the firmware (if avalible) or removing the A2DP thing and trying this instead:
http://sheehantu.wordpress.com/2007/05/25/enabling-a2dp-on-windows-mobile-5-phones/
has anyone tried this? does it work?
Does anyone having skipping music via A2DP? ANy fixes?
Thanks. all help appreciated!
I get the occasionall drop-out of music over a2dp. Every 30 seconds or so?
Not sure how to fix it - Works perfectly from my laptop. I don't think it's a signal strenght issue either as if I hold my jasjam next to my head it still does it.

Hi Just tried that prog and so far is NOT working......
Edit: It DOES work.
Bit fiddly to work it out but hey presto............. and stereo.
Listening to 'Pulse' ATM and not dropping out. Whahayyy!
i tried ripping a CD to WMA using media player at 128kbps and it works fine via A2DP with no skipping, so i think it just struggles with high bitrate songs and VBR MP3.
Update:
I tried an MP3 at 128kpbs and it skips, but when using a 128kbps WMA file it works perfect. So if you plan on using bluetooth headphones, get wmp 11 to convert everything to 128kbps WMA and you'll have not one problem.
Ok i have been playing with this and found a solution.
Use TCMCP. This plays AAC,WMA,MP3 and also video but if you embed the album art into the music file it will display this too. You can play the music at any bitrate and it doesn't skip with a2dp and bluetooth headphones.
And when you run this you have about 20MB avalible ram free.
To sort out your music and embed album art try music monkey.
Have fun!
I have the Pulsar 590A headset. Regarding stuttering audio; One thing to keep in mind; if you have paired it with your mobile phone, and later start a different pairing operation with bluetooth on your laptop, then the old connection with your phone may still connect automatically as a "mono headset" without you being aware of it. If you then connect the headset (manually) on your laptop to listen to stereo music (A2DP) the connection appears to succeed but you might get stuttering audio because you are also connected to your phone ! These seem to be two independent services that fight for bandwidth. I found that out when I happened to press the Dial button on the headset an to my surprise my phone (located in the hallway) called up my girlfriend ! And old pairing job I had done half a year ago and forgot about...Once I removed the phone pairing altogether (=phone link disconnected) the laptop music A2DP playback worked fine again. Can be a good thing to check in case you get stuttering audio.
Hi!
Yesterday I went through the upgrade of the official Dutch HTC Europe WM6 release. No problems there and WM6 works a charm.
The problem came to the light when I paired my Motorola HT820 A2DP headset. The music in the Windows Media Player plays well through A2DP, but only for a few seconds. After that it starts pausing every second. The same goes for all types of audio I play (video, TCPMP, etc).
Who can help? There was no problem using WM5 and a previous WM6 ROM (unofficial and WWE).
Thanks!!

Thanks for the tips.
Ofcourse there will be always another problem: my Motorola A2DP headset now fails to autoconnect (after being paired) to the X7500. Normally when I turn on the headset you will see a headphone/musictone icon in the top bar and hear the "connect sound" through the headset. This doesn't happen now. I need to soft reset first, and after that it will work again, for a few times.
Deleting the headset and pairing again works, but the autoconnecting stops working when I try again later.
Damn, what is it with the official WM6 and A2DP?

Hi, I still experience lags and pauses while using A2DP. With the registry tweak Priority256 it even gets a lot worse!!
Any more suggestions? I tried several headsets and even the Parrot Sound speaker set, but all of them are the same. So it's not the headset.
EDIT: I figured that it has something to do with the normal Bluetooth headset I use. I want to use the A2DP stereo headset simultaneously with the normal headset for phone calls. The A2DP headset only uses "Stereo audio" when connected, while the normal headset uses "Headset". This was no problem at all with all other devices I had and no problem as well on the X7500 running WM5. With WM6 things are different I guess.
A2DP WITHOUT the normal headset connected is no problem, like it should work. WITH the voice headset connected simultaneously, the lags come up, the prioriry fix makes no difference in this matter. And I'm stubborn, I want to have the voice headset to be connected at all times, the A2DP headset when I want to listen to music.
Any thoughts?
Hello everyone,
I was using a O2 Zinc on WM6 platform before the current Nike. With Zinc, i was able to listen to mp3 songs played to my SE HBH610 one-sided headset but not now on Nike. I noticed though that the Bluetooth stack on these 2 sets are different while on Zinc, you have an option to "Enable Audio". Anyone, can help? Thank you in advance.
Alano
what settings you have try?
There is nothing much to try. Just either to delete this headset or set it as "handsfree".
There should also a option for bluetooth audio if the phone recognize a2dp on a headset.
my car-hifi has handsfee and bluetooth audio and i can check both.
A2DP for music works like a charm for me...
i dunno about the settings my bluetooth headset when activated automaticly takes over from the phone speaker when im using media programs, though not with all programs. im using an Jabra bt3030 headset myself.
There doesn't seem to be an option perse for A2DP, anyone got an idea?
I have managed to downloaded a 3-party software that allows me to hear on the same headset audio. This show that there is nothing wrong with the capability of the headset but the software of the bluetooth in Nike. As far as I remember, on WM6 of Zinc, it is using Broadcom BT stack. Anyone has ideas where to get this to replace the MS stack on Nike?
Weird - I recently bought a SE HBH-DS220 headset and it works fine together with both Windows Media player and the inbuilt HTC media player.
Nike is A2DP compatible as said in the phone documentation. I use to listen music wirth my motorola S9. When I pair the S9, audio is automatiquely routed to it.
I have a motorola S9 stereo Bt too and everything works fine, even games and tcmcp work without problems.
I use this Blue Tooth Headset. Reason ... no other Product use 24bit D/A Converter! Not much Headset, can match with this product!!! and ... i am a fan of old designes ... if you have a sunglasses ... you look like the first Napster Logo LLOOOLL

The S9s are a great set, but don't ever go running/cycling or get sweaty with them - they totally fail - which is seriously lousy for something thats "designed" for such usage.
I use the Motorola SoundPilot S705, which i brilliant.
I have an outtake for 3,5 mm. jack, and FM radio. When I turn the SoundPilot on, it immediately paires up with my phone.

Is anyone facing issues getting sound to play from their bluetooth headset when paired with the Asus Transformer Prime? Have you been able to resolve it? I have been able to pair it without a problem but the sound doesn't stream. I'm on TW_9.4.2.15
So far, I've seen a few threads but no answers that have been confirmed. Any thoughts? Also, confirmation that this problem still exists would be helpful, thanks!

inline mic or bt headset
I am now on Virtuous Prime, but also had this working previously on stock .15. I have Motorola S9-HD Bluetooth headphones working. I have also gotten music audio to stream to my Plantronics m155, so it does work, but can be a little fiddly.
Process that works for me is as follows (and I know there is no particular reason for any of this, but it is what works so I do it this way).
1. Start Google Music, hit play so music starts, then pause the music.
2. Turn on the headphones and let them pair to Bluetooth.
3. Settings->Bluetooth, go to the headphones and and make sure you have both the Phone Audio and Media audio profiles checked (this is where MOST times the issue is on my TFP)
4. Press play on your headphones.
Again, no rhyme or reason why, but it does work for me this way.
Cheers,
Peter
I have the Samsung HS3500 and HS3000 and both work fine for streaming audio out of the Prime.
In general I just have to turn on the Prime's bluetooth, then turn on the headset I want to use (they look for connections when turned on, so if the tablet's bluetooth isn't already on they won't connect) and it connects after a few seconds and works perfectly.
I don't know if I am just getting lucky with the Prime's bluetooth but I haven't had any problems streaming content from the internet such as Netflix and listening to it with my bluetooth headsets.
If you are looking to just listen to music and video on your Prime you could give the HS300 a try, it isn't expensive:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Stere...WK5E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330989035&sr=8-1
However if you want a bluetooth that is easy to use while driving I would suggest the:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Black..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1330989270&sr=1-2
Both can be used to listen through headphones (the 3500 requires you to use the included headphones, or listen through the included adapter). The HS3000 can also be used for calls, since there is a mic next to where the headphone plugs in, however the 3500 is easier to use while driving.
Thanks for the suggestions! pbrauer I tried your workaround, and it didn't work out, but I learned something... I have no media audio profile, only the phone profile. I have been doing more research on the matter and it looks like it could be incompatibility between mono earpiece/headsets and android in general.
My headset is an i.Tech Clip II mini 606 mono headset, and it doesn't appear to have a2dp technology. Looking at what's posted on other android forums unrelated to the Transformer Prime, some have tried software such as BTmono and SuperMonoFroyo to reroute the audio feed. Unfortunately, no dice... I'll keep researching to see if I can find any solution - if I find a solution elsewhere, I'll make sure to post back here so it can help others.
Almightywhacko, I'm going to try and struggle with this for a bit longer since I just got out of university and would prefer to stay away from getting further in debt, at least until I get a job. But once I get a job, and if this issue persists, I might go for one of those, thanks!
I have Transformer TF300T and I have problems with my two stereo bluetooth headsets (Dell and Jabra). Headphones pair with no problems, but then there is no sound. Sometimes reset (turning off/on) helps, I also tried to hard reset the tablet - this helped too, but only temporarily. After some time of listening, sound disappears. And these are my BT headsets that I use all the time with my mobile phone, without any problems.
I have also noticed, that when there is a problem with a Bluetooth headset sound, and I try to display film (using MX Player), film stops for a while every one second. It looks like there is a heavy process in the background, that makes the film perform bad. When I turn off the Bluetooth (or I have a luck, and there IS sound in my BT headset), film is displayed perfectly well.
TF300T has Bluetooth 3.0 on board, my headsets are BT 2.x. Could this be a problem? (o.k., I do know, that BT 3.0 is compatible with 2.x, but still, this is life, and who knows ?)

SO GLAD to hear I'm not the only one with this problem! To date the best answer anyone can give me is: "not all brands of Bluetooth Headsets work on the Transformer Prime"- what???
My Jawbone Icon didn't work & I had it a year before I bought the TP. Somehow I lost the Icon so I bought the newer Jawbone Era, and it doesn't work either. It pairs just fine & I can hear sound but when using Google Voice /Talk, I can't speak into the BT mid and be heard.
Really sucks! My 2 year old Droid 2 phone has no problem with either BT headset. Very frustrating not to know why they don't work??
