I just purchased the 260 Plantronics Stereo Bluetooth Headset and I works great with my 8125 when it comes to making and receiving phone calls. I just can't get to play music. How can it make it work?

I have the same issue. I saw a note about adding an A2DP patch, which I tried without luck so far. (I would hate to let the iPhones win.)

Okay, I'm not trying to reinvent the will. I'm curious thought, what are some good compatible bluetooth headsets for HTC TC? What are the bad ones? ....using Murato Radio and Original Rom!!!! Or any other radio/Rom combo!
I have seen a post on headsets/stereo music/phone thread. But not one with a specific list of compatible headsets.
I'm asking because I'm trying to figure out if my brand new (one week old) device have a bad bluetooth problem or do I need another headset. Currently using Plantronics Voyager 510, and I cant go 3 feet without it getting choppy and static, sound quality is f**k*d up!!!!
So I will post first: Plantronics Voyager 510 ....NOPE!!
Just be sure and purchase from a place that allows returns if you're not happy with them. Find some you like on your own.

Jabra JX10 Series II: Works well
I love my Jabra BT620S
well i have a Plantronics Voyager 510 and have been using it first with Artemis and now with Polaris and i have to say its THE BEST heatset i have ever used (and there have been many!)
good up to 15m and sound perfect.... you have something wrong either with the headset you have or your Polaris
I'm currently using Philips SHB9000. At first signt, it pairs but no headset icons on the top bar (which means all the sound goes through the speakerphone).
Using BTAudio, sound gets redirected to the headset (still no headset icon) but quality is awful, using HomeScreen PlusPlus UI A2DP option the icon appears and sound is incredibly good.
I was using Murata radio/udK R8 when I bought it one week ago. Changing radio or ROM did not change anything so either it is OS or headset related.
Regarding your choppy sound, try this method (especially for Plantronics Voyager 510) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2533699&postcount=13, this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2533699&postcount=14 and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1317007&postcount=18

Thanks for the resource everyone. I appreciate the response and the help.
I purchased the Plantronics Discovery 655, and guess what? The exact same thing is happening. I still get choppy reception at times.
though I have noticed it is slightly better then the previous headset. And people who I'm tallking to say that I sound alot more clearer.
My conclusion, now, my phone has a bad radio. Either the bluetooth hardware is jacked...or my radio is horrible.
What do you guys think?
BTW i purchased it from a website and I didnt get any warranty on it.
So I called HTC and complained about my bluetooth connection. The lady (valerie) told me that as long as it works, they are not interested in the quality of the connection. After complaining a little more, I ended with the conclusion that I have to test alot of headsets until I find the right one. So to add to this thread:
Good connection will be defined as, "clear crispy hearing on both ends, no static and choppy sounds, and the ability to walk away at most 6 feet (maybe 3 meters) from the phone and still maintain sound quality connection with the phone: Good connection".
So those who have post already with their headset, can you repost to determine if you have "Good connection". My only purpose for this is to purchase this time the "right" headset instead of numerous returns to the store to find the perfect one.
Jabra JX10 series II
Jabra BT6210S
Phillip SHB9000
Do all of these fit the Good Connection definition?
Thanks for all who have post. I truly appreciate your help. You are helping me save money and time!!!!
Yes, JX10 series II: Good connection (FYI, not sure about the series I, as there are some firmware changes that happened.)
I think I can say that Phillip SHB9000 has out-of-the-box a fairly good connection (did not test the 3 meters test yet and had natively choppy sound before the registry modification) with my TC.
After the reg modification it has a good connection (still did not checked the 3 meters connection but I never get disconnected), but it can't be compared to the 2 Jabras at it is really dedicated to listening to music (covers almost all your ears). It is the first time I'm buying that type of headset and it is really a different world than usual headsets (intra auricular or in-ear). The sound is clear and all details are present.
The only drawback compared to the other is obviously the size...
BTW, disconnection problem with Jabra headsets could be solved by HTC official Bluetooth fixes (as one has been especially made for them) and BT disconnection is also relying to the ROM version.

Jabra BT8040
I use the Jabra BT8040. It has as major advantage that it not only supports the handsfree profile, but also wireless 'stereo' (A2DP), so I'm able to listen to music on the headset too.
thanks muyz
after applying the patches from HTC's website, my Jabra BT500 works pretty good. the issues before were addressed and it works fine now as a hands free in the car headset.
i have tested it while walking and talking and something strange i've never encountered: crackling noise. it's as if i was on a wired set with bad wires. as soon as i stop moving, the connection is back to normal. strange. this is why i said it's great for in car connection since the phone and your head will stay relatively static.
looking for a new headset myself actually.
Hi,
I'm using the Jabra BT3030 which also support A2DP for my music listening. After I applied the bluetooth fix from the htc website it's working flawlessly, with no loss of connection as it did before the patch. Very happy with it.
what does the Jabra BT3030 look like? Is it jus the dog tag thing...or is it also wired or wireless plugins? Can you take a quick pic and upload?
Thanks
I tried looking online and I only see the tag piece...is that it?
i'm using Jabra BT620s - work's perfect
i had just some break's in stereo while running in traffic (maybe caused by other BT devices from cars?) - so I changed A2DP setting in SKTools and now it's perfect
strongly recomend
slightly off topic, but what are the registry hacks people keep mentioning
I have 8 cruises for my company's engineers and all of them are moaning about the carkit connections. We have applied the hot fixes and they are still generally rubbish
a selection of the carkits ;
nokia ck 7w
motorola HF 850
focus c-max bluetooth in car
Auidi bluetooth in car
various jabra headsets
motorola HS 800
Keeps cutting out. poor/ tinny sounding, mine (Moto hf 850) makes outgoing calls ok (sometimes) but takes about 15 seconds to hear voice of othter caller on incoming
???????????
Cheers

Anyone ? this phone is pants, great pda tho
…and for the HBH-DS980 ?
I have a Jabra X10 Serie II, but I want a HBH-DS980.
Is there someone who know if it works with Polaris ?
I mean, every function of the headset [playlist, list contacts, etc…].
Thanks for your feedback.
It doesn't work fully with anything, its pants !
and even when it does work fully ... it stops working when it feels like it !
bloody irrational. must be female
Hi all,
Just got a BT earpiece for making handsfree calls. No problems and it paired well.
I was wondering if there was any way to get my music to pay on it.
cheers
If your earpiece supports the A2DP profile then yes. Otherwise just the normal headset profile will not.
Just curious if anyone else knows why this is or how it worked... I have a Jabra BT150, that I am in love with and cant let go and yes I also have a plantronics voyager 975 and an lg hbm 520 but the jabra just fits me better I guess, anyways when I had the nokia e71x if the jabra was paired with the phone all audio would go through the headset. I looked up all the information I could and nothing said the BT150 supported A2DP and Im sure it didnt because its an older mono headset. I also checked some nokia forums and the people that actually believed me, most said I was lying, couldnt answer my questions. This has not worked on any other phone just the Unlocked e71x that I had. Just my .02, wouldnt it be great to get something like that to work with the hero?
Hi,
Today gone my A2DP Stereo Headset and now I need to buy something instead. I prefer something like my old Jabra bt8010 which was hanged on my ears without any clips (as is in new jabra models).
Could someone suggest me something what will be working with HTC HD2
TIA
I have the Plantronics BackBeat 903 headset, which works very well with the HD2, and will use the same micro-USB charger.

I picked one of these up when it was called the "Altec Lansing Backbeat 903."
Regardless - I can recommend it but I've found that the bluetooth connection isn't as stable/strong as with my previous phone (HTC Touch Pro) when the phone is in my pocket.
yea the signal isnt strong doesnt give me the 10m it should without breaking up. I use the senheiser px210 not cheep but sound is amaizing aptx ready bought the apt x dongle but dont need it as they sound very good work very well with audio and video no sync issues while whatching video

OI have tested many and they are all different. My favorite is the LG HBM-570. It is not A2DP, but has the best sound, and accesses the contacts to announce the caller. Since MS Voice Command doesn't seem to work --- Anybody get VC to announce the caller in the bluetooth??? ---- BlueAnt Q-1 will announce, but you have to update the headset manually, and you have to listen to an annoying phrase every time you want to voice dial.
And at last I have bought another one Jabra BT8010.
Hi,
Since Flyer can be rooted already and that phone call can finally be made, I have some questions with regards to bluetooth headsets for those who have used it already
1. How long can the Flyer last with bluetooth on always so that it can be ready to be paired with the headset?
2. Is there any app that can be downloaded such that it can automatically on the bluetooth on the flyer when a call is received?
3. Has anyone tried any a2dp bluetooth headsets that are compatible with HTC flyer?
I saw a samsung hm3700 bluetooth headset which allows interchange of mono and stereo earpiece and wondering if it is supported by htc flyer.
Thanks!!
3. I use a pair of Sony DR-bt101 headphones. A2dp with a built in mic. Works with Skype, so should work with whatever other dialer you are using.
Battery life will vary from device to device based on what apps are in the background and overall use. In my case, listening to Pandora over the aforementioned headphones with screen off and bt and wifi on, I get on average 5-6 hours continuous streaming before I need to recharge. Not the best example, but closest I have.
My Samsung hm3500 works with it. I haven't used them in phone call yet, but I would assume they will be just fine. They are a2dp with the stereo ear buds. I used them the other day listening to music while I built a bed. The headset ran out of juice at about five hours and my view had around half it's battery still left. I plugged in a regular set of ear phones and finished out the day with my battery still in the green.
wow cool that seems promising thanks alot!!
Just wanna share
I found this app called automatic Bluetooth toggle it can be configured to on the Bluetooth when a call is made and off the Bluetooth when the call end, tried and tested it and it works!
Sent from my HTC Flyer P510e
recently just bought the sony MW600 headset.. It work great with my HTC flyer and iphone. I can pair the 2 devices and can switch between them . cool...
Thought to share it here.

I can confirm that the HM3700 works fine with the Flyer.
I've not been successful using it as a mic but it can be used to listen to media at this point in time.
I just received a pair of Motorola S805 Headphones. The Flyer paired fine and works well for making and receiving calls, but for some reason the A2DP profile doesn't seem to be working. I'm not sure if it's an issue with the Flyer or the headphones, but I use A2DP from my Flyer with my Xcarlink to play audio through my car stereo no problem. I'll let you know if I manage to resolve this.
I had a bit of progress with a wired headset. I loaded the voipcheap application was able to make a call with both channels working.
Next step will be to try that with BT

Does that not suggest that there is an issue with A2DP on your headset?
I have these JayBird Freedoms and they are pretty dope. I've used them on Skpe , on my SpeakToIt Assistant app, the built in Android speech commands as well as listen to music and watch videos.
They sound great; plenty loud and definitely clear and the mic works awesome given that the mic is on the ear bud itself
I , personally, don't like carrying around bulky headphones. I walk around the office with these blasting music and dont feel weird LOL

Well I tried a Voip call today with BT.
Call rings but as soon as the call is answered sound drops.
BT works perfectly watching movies or listening to music.
I'm not sure how some people say it works in a call because even HTC confirm this is a known problem?
Can anybody explain?
plz suggest me low priced working stereo Bluetooth headset for htc flyer
the headsets mentioned above are very pricey suggest me some low cost stereo headsets for htc flyer for receiving calls, i installed cool honey 3d
Everytime i use a bt headset when the other part talk to me and i try to speak at the same time they can' t hear me. Today i made a test: i asked my wife to count from one to ten and i did the same together. Althought i was able to hear her, she wasn't able to hear me! I tried four different headsets and the problem is common. Sorry for my bad english.
Are you using cheap BT headsets? I have my Jawbone and its works fine with no issues. If you have the money for 4 different headsets, i would get rid of them and buy the jaw bone or another higher end BT headset. also in my car, i have a pioneer BT120. full nav, BT music streaming and phone calls. no issues with that either.
