before i buy jabra 250 . is it work well with pda2k now after the new rom????
also do you have something better than jabra?
jabra 250
no good 4 a xda2
jabra also confirm this if asked
so which bluetooth headset is best ?
Sony Ericsson Akono HBH-300 ok ?
Mine works faultlessly with my XDAII.
Mine works, but there is no actual handsfree. i.e. you cannot do a last number redial, as with the wired headphones, so I presume it is not legal to use in UK when driving?
When you ring someone there is a second delay then the XDA transfers the call to the headset. When you recieve a call you have to press the answer but on the headset then it is transfered. You don't get it ringing in your ear. Well mine doesn't.:-(
Regards
I get ringing in my ear with mine and no dely when transferring.
I can confirm that only answering and ending calls work. There is no dialing on LNR.

I have a blue angel ( SX-66) and neither my BT200 or 250 work with it....
The Stack is too old as well so my BT keyboard will not work either !
Stay away from Jabra 250 on these phones. Jabra 200 *might* be ok.
HBH-300, HBH-660, Plantronics M3000, Logitech Freedom are few that work well.
HS820 will work but audio is poor compared to above head sets.
You can patch that SX66 with i-mate patches.
Hard Reset and apply these in this order.

Here is some commentary from Tech Support. Does this make any sense?
Dear Sir.
Thank you for writing in and for your query. Regarding your issue, I would like to tell you that you should install the Bluetooth patches after upgrading your device in order to fix the device Bluetooth issues. On the other hand, regarding Bluetooth headsets, Sony Ericsson HBH-65, Cellink, Jabra and Motorola headsets work perfectly with i-mate devices. Most of these headsets have been tested by i-mate technical team. There have not been any reported complaints regarding these headsets as they are quite compatible and error free with the i-mate™ devices.
Regarding Plantronics M3000 Bluetooth headset have not been tested yet from i-mate technical team.
On the other hand, make sure that your headset has the following specifications: Bluetooth Ser. Version 1.1 and supports the headset profile.
I brought a jabra 250 and didn't know it had problems with this device 100$ later I reallized that it doesn't work it pairs and I can hear people but if I am more than 2 feet from the phone the audio become muffled.
my coworker has a nokia headset. and the same thing happened.
I am not sure what my bluetooth version is but I I do have the latest roms.
Hi,
I have the Jabra BT200 with the non bluetooth adapter and I get more crackle in my ear that I get out of my bowl of Rice Krispies! And there is no point in using the adapter with it when the headset is bluetooth and is supposed to work with my MDA III. Oh! and for the record... I also have the SX56 and the bluetooth adapter and it didn't work with that device either. When I plugged it in the jack and turn on the set , no sound. Jabra is a decent product. But lets face it, Any company that is going to make anything or install anything Bluetooth need to stick with one set of Bluetooh frequency protocols instead of trying to make it customized to work with just certain devices. Because everybody is not going to stick with the same headset or the same phone and people upgrade all the time and others just stick with what works. In my research I did fine that any of the Plantronics headsets (M2500 best pick) works well. Which I will pick up this weekend. I hope this helps. Cheers everyone.

using a bt200
I'm using a blue angel (XDA2s) with a Jabra BT200 headset, I have installed the recently released patch from o2 to fix the bluetooth problems, and now I find it works ok, audio is reasonable withing a couple metres, gets a bit flaky further away but I'm never sure if that's the bluetooth or network signal in my house!
It IS slightly annoying that you can't do dialing, not even last number redial from your headset, but mostly if I'm driving I'm not making calls, merely expecting them, so I can answer on my headset OK and talk to the caller. I DO get a short ring tone in my ear (series of short beeps).
I got my headset free with my phone so I'm happy to live with it's limitations til I've finished paying for Xmas, then I might ebay it and buy an officially supported one which I can do LNR with.
I have heard (dont know if anyone can confirm) that the blue angel doesnt support voice dialling via your headset (for any bt headset) as the bluetooth headset doesnt take over the microsoft for all applications on the blueangel.
Jabra FS-258 (Jabra 250 + car charger)
No problems here (crackle) after upgrading to the 3500 stack. Making voice commands isn't the fault of the gadget -- blame the stack on the XDA. Originally bought mine for the SE T68i and it worked perfect. Moving to the SE K700i the call button didn't work anymore. So, this is a software driver implementation problem definitely. The best thing about the Jabra is its linked to all the previous devices and I just have to turn off the bluetooth on one so the connection hops to the other. Seamless integration with the XDA IIs.
My Jabra 250 works perfectly on my the XDA II and my XDA IIs. On the IIs i do get some crackle/static related to the bad stack especially so after the 3500 update but hopefully that will be fixed soon, anyway that is no fault of the headset.
Also on the IIs it is extremely loud and i had to turn it down. I always had it on full on the II.
On both II and IIs there is a ringing in the headset aswell as the devices ringing.
It is a shame that handsfree is not fully supported still in the new IIs.
o2 don't like making it easy to find out about compatability, do they?
There's the list on the my-xda website, but that's not very exhaustive.
Muggins here phoned up customer services trying to find out whether the Logitech stuff worked. After taking me through security, I got another number...
...which was engaged for 20 minutes.
So, eventually I got thru, and was told to phone customer services (on a different number) and ask for data support.
I got through there. "Nick", a helpful chap, then passed me onto tech support.
Tech support insist that the only things that work are the:
SonyEricsson HBH200 and 65, and the Nokia HS 4W, 3W, HD W3 and W2.
I suspect they are talking what is known technically as "balls".
This site seems much more helpful...
I just got the x3 blueant bluetooth headset. It was very easy to setup, but it's also not my first headset. The sound quality is ok coming in but everyone complains of interference. Has anyone had experience with blueant and their products? I may return it since I have a 15 day policy. I really need to find a headset and am having no luck. Can anyone suggest a good BT headset?
thats strange - cause its worked GREAT for me ..
as I said in one of my other posts the x3 blueant even goes thru walls and I have not had any problems with it and my Tytn; for a while I even used the 3.5mm transmitter dongle that comes with it to listen to my OLD SCHOOL mp3 player in the gym
I have done the A2Dp hack and the sound quality is awesome before and after the hack ...
i am debating between the blueant, jabra 500v, and the plantronics 645. any opinions?
Hi, i'm new in here.. i use dopod 838Pro.. And i'm intend to buy a stereo bluetooth headset that can be paired to 2 phone.. So it can be used with my CDMA phone also.. Is there any suggestion?? I heard that there's one with i-tech brand.. Need review pls.. Thx..
You can check out the Jabra 620s or the plantronics 350
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, I'm looking for a good bluetooth headset. I thought these headphones but do not know if they are good:
