Bluetooth Headset problem - G1 Accessories

Hi guys,
i have a SE HBH-DS970 stereo bluetooth headset and i can't pair it with my G1. the phone can't see the headset. is there another way to pair it? i need it only for calls till A2DP will be supported.
any ideas?

Are you sure the headset is in pairing mode and has the handset profile?

the headset doesn't have to many options so yeah it's in pairing mode. i took out the manual to see if i'm doing something wrong but still no luck, the phone doesn't find the headset. i had a diamond before i switched for G1 and it worked perfect.

no ideas? (

List of compatible devices. If yours isnt on there then im guessing it needs A2DP or one of the other not yet supported profiles.

well Motorola HT820 is listed there, but my friends and mine won't play music from our g1s .. i hoped at least for mono xD but nothing.. just pairs^^

For music you will probably need to wait for A2DP support.

BT Headphones Finally Working!

I've spent many a frustrated hour trying to find a way to use my Bluetake I-Phono bluetooth headphones without that damn dongle and at long last, I've found a solution!
"Simply" install the WM2003SE upgrade by toenailed/xda2jojo (which is pretty bloomin impressive, BTW) and then install the HP iPAQ Bluetooth Stereo Headphones Driver Update.
This adds a "High Quality Audio setup" option to the Broadcom bluetooth implementation within the WM2003SE upgrade. Not quite A2DP but pretty damn close. Fidelity, volume, bass are pretty good, particularly considering its a wireless connection, but there are occasional "pops" and "squeaks" to contend with. The connection is so sensitive that I'm having to maintain line-of-sight between my XDAII and the right-hand (BT connected) side of the headphones. I can move several yards away but only as long as I keep the LOS, otherwise the connection degrades significantly.
It's far from perfect but its not a bad compromise until someone cracks A2DP on the XDA (something which I would happily pay £50 to achieve, if any interested party is listening).
Cheers,
Ged.
Headset Update
I've been playing around with bluetooth headset settings and I can't make it work under either BT stack.
BLUETOOTH HEADSET
Hi there mate I have V3 BTHS I tried using broadcom plus the upgrade but its not working...not sure though if I configure it correctly ...When i checked the connection on the bluetooth MAnager/Active Connection it shows an Icon in the Outgoing Connection and it is connected but i dont hear any sounds on my bt headset. What could be the problem? BTW my BT works on the orig bluetooth progy but only on the calls not in music players and sound notification. Hope you can help me. Thanks
As I understand it, you can use a BT headset for calls or BT headphones for music, but not both. My headphones are supposed to work in headset mode but they don't... for the moment at least.
Sorry I can't help further mate.
I understand "High Quality Audio setup" is A2DP. There is nothing more to achieve.

Okay I have the Bluetake i-PHONO on order. Can someone please tell me if it's possible to use them as stereo headphones and a headset at the same time? When you add the Bluetake to your BT setup as high-quality audio, can you add it at the same time as a BT headset? Does it show up as two icons in the BT manager? The Bluetake is supposed to automatically switch between A2DP and headset/handsfree profile... What I want is to be listening to music using media player over A2DP, then hit the button on the Bluetake and pick up a call. Isn't this the way it's supposed to work?
BLUETOOTH HEADSET
oh ok now it makes sense hehe. thanks PinkySlayer. Iphono is bit expensive though its almost a price of a mini ipod...
Expensive they may be, MTX, but I HATE cables, and what's the point in carrying around an MP3 player when you already have one in the form of an XDA (albeit with a few 1GB SD cards in tow)!? I'm working towards a personal nirvana of "single music source, multiple outputs"; I have an FM transmitter wired up to my GPS enabled car cradle so both my WMA and TomTom audio come out of my car speakers; I have wireless Sennheiser headphones for the house and now and now I have wireless BT headphones for mobile use.
I didn't think that was the case, surur. It certainly isn't in practican terms in that the Bluetake phones work great with their own BT dongle (which truly supports A2DP) but with the "High Quality Audio setup", things arn't so rosy.
That's what the Bluetake phones are designed to do, trhuseby, but I think the only way to achieve that at the moment is to use the BT dongle for music playback and then connect your XDA direct to the phones in headset mode. I believe that the phones would then automatically swap from music playback to headset mode when a call comes in, but you have to use that bloody dongle.
The settings for "High Quality Audio setup" do allow the (de)selection of both audio and headset connections but alas, this does not make it work.
BT HEADPHONE
yeah i hear you Pinkyslayer...I really like to have a bt headphone i'm just looking for a cheaper headphone. i was thinking on buying a HP or Toshiba headphones

Can't see why not.

Any suggestions for a good stereo bluetooth headset?

I am looking for a stereo bluetooth headset and was wondering if members of this forum have any suggestions of what to buy.
I'm going to go with an iTech r35 clip. It seems to have the best support for a range of profiles, and also allows connection of your own preferred headphones.
It seems reports of it working with tytn are mixed, but this appears to be because the tytn BT stack is not the best.
I'll give it a go, but I don't hold out 100% confidence in any BT stereo headsets unless something is done to address the weaknesses of the underlying device.
good price for the itech clip at the orange shop £29.99 (includes a free dongle to allow you to use the headset with other stereo equipment via a 3.5mm jack.)
let us know how you get on as I think it's ok.
pros
1 quality acceptable for me using my own ear buds
2 A2DP works well so far
cons
1 no car charger included
2 hands free reconnects fine when coming back into range but the stereo wireless does not and you have to reconnect manually
3. I'm using the headset through my car stereo aux line. works great for playing music and taking calls except people ringing in hear an echo (themselves through the car speakers about .5seconds after they speak). I thought it was one of those things but it doesn't do it using my w800i. - I really need to resolve this one :?:
I havent heard any complaints about the S38 I think that from what comments I have heard would be the better choice
Im using the s38 it works geat!
Hey,
I've been looking at buying the r35 and was wondering whether or not the clip has a built in microphon on it or not? Becuase I want to be able to use my own headphones and still answer an incoming call. Thanks
I have chosen to go with the Jabra BT500v so far so good quite comfy, only problem is that it won't let me use it to do voice commands on the Vario 2 so some hacks are needed I think.

+1 ?
I use the i-Clip R35 and it works great with the Hermes, using my own headphones and the clip picks up my voice really well even if it's in my shirt pocket. The forward/backwards button works with WM but not the play/pause button, still trying to get these to work with TCPMP.
My R35 clip arrived today. I bought from here and paid circa £64 for two delivered to the UK.
So far it's working well (I made the registry alterations to improve the stereo - as suggested in the wiki). In WM the pause/play button doesn't seem to work (but the volume up/down and track back/forward do). It flawlessly switches to headset whenever a call comes in.
The only thing I don't like is a device issue - having to keep the device on (ie all buttons and the screen active) when playing mp3's.
I'll keep track of how I get on, and report back on a long term test.
so pressing the down button on the joypad in media player to switch the screen off (but keep the music playing) stops the iTech from working ?

If you are having problems with accidentally hitting the buttons etc.. when the phone is in your pocket, have you tried enabling the "Lock" in the settings menu to activate after 0 minutes.
This is what I used to do when I was listening to Tomtom voice commands on my motorbike (used to have the phone in my pocket and didn't want to accidentally phone someone, activate other programs etc..)
Solved the problem for me

I wasn't aware that you could do that. Does it also disable the buttons? I find I get all sorts of presses as I slide it in and out of my bag. I'll have a play, and see what happens.

Bluetooth Wireless heartset pairing

i got a I-tech r35 headset, i have no problem pairing the headset with the phone for the first time, however, after i turn off the headset and try to pair it again at a later point, i can't....
the phone only recognize a headset for the phone, and no stereo music from the headset...
is there any specify setting i need to change?
thanks
anyone have the same problem??
I have the same one, and it works fine for me.
If you recieve only the phone on your stereo bt.
try to go BT config, then on devices list, tap and hold on i.R35 or whatever name you've got on it, a list will appear, then select "set as stereo.."
That should works, at least it does for me.
What rom are you using? I'm on Schaps 3.54c right now.
Hope this help.

X7500 WM6 and A2DP problem

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!!
Sounds like your sampling rates are off. Check this thread for info:

Search on Priority256_fix. That seems to be the final piece of the puzzle to fix the blue tooth problem.

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?

AD2P on Nike

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.
