All,
Just wanted to make you all aware of this product by Sony:
http://www.mobilewhack.com/reviews/sony_dr-bt10cx_wireless_stereo_headset.html
I purchased mine from Hong Kong from here:
http://www.accessoryjack.com/servlet/the-361/The-Sony-DR-dsh-BT10CX-Bluetooth/Detail
This is by far the best Stereo Bluetooth headset I've owned! I can listen to music on my 8525 (in stereo!),the earbuds are extremely comfortable, and phone calls are easy to make and recieve with the built-in microphone.
Check it out!
Hey how did you get this to work. I own another sony bluetooth headset and all i hear trough it are the beeps from the screen, not the music from media player.

Hi,
Has anyone tried the OMIZ headphones
http://www.blueunplugged.com/Products/OMIZ_Stereo_Bluetooth_MP3_Headset.aspx
Googling gave me the above solution for bluetooth headphones which can stream music from my XDA mini to the bluetooth headphones.
However I dont have any idea about what to look for when buying bluetooth headphones.
My requirements are
-- Head phones must recieve songs played by Windows media player on my XDA mini.
-- Head phones must have FM radio functionality
-- Head phones must have handsfree features to receive calls and stop music play during the call
Can any one suggest me a product. Can someone also tell the the technology features that I need to look for when buying product with the above requirements.
The head phones I got with my XDA mini are broken already. [/b]
I've tried the Zonet ZUB8100, which is basically the same as the OMIZ. Couldn't get them to pair with the Wizard in A2DP mode; they'd only show up as a handsfree device.
I've used the Zonet with the SX66 (Blue Angel); they were OK as stereo handphones (the Moto HS820 works much better, IMHO). The Zonet is the crappiest handsfree unit I've ever used; the noise cancellation is non-existent and the mic barely functions.
Does anyone know of a adapter I can use to connect my 8525 to my car cassette player to play some mp3s?
Casette adapter
I'm using regular (wired) casete adapter which I got from RadioShack and connect it to R35 which in its turn is paired with TyTN. By this I can listen mp3 stored in mн PDA as well as on-line radio through car speakers. I should note that quality is much better than I expected, better tha regular radio (not HD )
Wonderful news thanks..
I installed the Sony MEX-BT5000. Its able to stream audio from the tytn via BT. Very nice, it connects automatically when I start the engine. I also use it as my handsfree for calls. At first, callers said they couldnt hear me loudly, so I flipped down the faceplate during calls and now calls are good. This is because the mic is behind the faceplate.
Just thought I'd throw it out there...another option to connect the tytn wirelessly.

This is wonderful news because I was just looking into some bt radios..
Do you have a BT headset? I'm curious if I can still use my headset while in the car and just do the audio part..
I do have a BT headset, but I found that the combination doesnt work well. I tried to split the audio streaming to the headunit, and then the handsfree to the headset, but the results were unreliable at best.
I've found that the headunit mic is good enough quality to speak through, as long as you flip down the faceplate. If you dont want to use the handsfree, you can use the audio only and regular Tytn phone. The BT connections are separated by Sony.
Interestingly enough, I was able to internet radio stream via BT to the headunit, and run Tomtom navigator 5 BT GPS unit at the same time. The music volume was decreased and the directions came over the music.
I guess I could just turn off my headset while in the car. I assume it will mute the radio when calls come through..
So you don't get any skipping or anything while playing mp3s?
Do you store your mp3s on a storage card?
Mp3s stored on storage card and internet radio streaming doesnt skip connected via bluetooth.
What is a R35? Is it a BT radio reciever of some sort?
hi
I walk to work and back everyday and I listen to my DAB radio all the time.
Problem is (and I realise its not the biggest problem in the world) I can't hear my phone so always miss calls.
Can anyone think of a solution so I can get audio from my DAB into the Hermes so I can listen to the radio and when I get a call, it interupts the audio? I thought about using the mini usb but that only has a mic in and if I use that, if the phone rings all they'll hear is my radio
Its a big of an expensive solution but would this work?:

So I bluetooth audio to my Hermes then use the wired headphones/mic to listen to it and if I get a call, the audio stops?!
Would that work?
thanks in advance

You could just have your phone on ring AND vibrate and keep it in your pocket so you feel it.
Just an idea
Try these instead. http://www.plantronics.com/north_america/en_US/products/cat1150057/cat5420035/prod29780013
I have had a pair for about a year and the sound is great. You can connect the included dongle your DAB or any other non blue tooth audio device and set up a link between your phone and the dongle with the headset. While you are listening to your music from the DAB if you receive a call the headset silences the music and you can answer the call directly from the headset. When the call ends your music resumes automatically. I may be a little pricier than device you listed but works like a charm.
Note make sure you look at the 590a not the 590e. The 590e does not include the dongle.
Also don't purchase it directly from Plantronics site. You can get it for about $100 if you search the web for it.
Hi ppl,
Just got an s3, and I'm having a problem with BT performance. I have 2 old headsets, a proplantronics, and a jabra bt350. When paired with my old TP2, ALL audio came through the headset; handset didn't ring, custom ringtones came through the headset, and navigation directions came through the headset. With the s3, handset rings (get a generic ringtone on headset), and navigation directions are on the handset. S-voice works on the headset. What I want this thing to do is output audio the same way the headphones do, but I don't like dealing with wires! That's the POINT of BT. Any suggestions?
Thnx

Are you talking about playing mp3's? And if so, what program are you using? Just the stock audio player?
no, don't really care to listen to music through these BT headsets. I do not want the handset to ring when BT is connected, and I want navigation instructions over the headset as well. Old TP2, with same headsets had no problem doing either.
I am preparing my phone as the ultimate in car utility. I have uploaded all my music to Google Music and recently got on a sim only contract that gives me truly unlimited data.
Now my issue is which car stereo should I get. I have never bought a bluetooth stereo before so am fairly ignorant as to the various bluetooth standards and what to look out for. I would like the following features to be available;
Bluetooth streaming music from my phone to the stereo.
Controlling the music via my car stereo
Having the track name and other ID3 tags display on the stereo display
Being able to answer calls through my stereo and have the audio play through the car speakers and the steros microphone
Access to my contact list via the stereo interface and make calls from here
Are these all possible and are there any other nice features that would be possible?
I've been considering either of these Clarion Stereos, stereo 1, stereo 2. How would either of these match up to my requirements?
Also of note is that I'm running CM10, and also I will likely upgrade to a Nexus4 in a few months incase this makes any difference to which stereo I should buy.
