Hi all,
I have a prblm with my whi 200.
I have my BT headset that's working great when I call, or when I need to use voice_command features.
The problem is when someone calls me.
I can't answer with the headset button, because this hang down the incoming phone call.
If I answer by pressing the green button directly on the PDA, I can answer and hear only using the PDA (the headset does not work).
The only thing to do, is answer by the pushbutton on the PDA, switch on the BT headset, and after a while, I can talk and listen trough the headset.
Is there anything to solve this problem ?
Thanks

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.

thx for that. I'll give it a go.
My first pda phone, so these tips - even the most simple - are extremely useful.
Hi
OK this is not strictly a bluetooth headset its actually analogue pluged into my laptop.
I have got music playing via Bluetooth
It also receives calls from the phone via BT and the headset can hear the caller and I can speak via the headset mic
so all is quite good.
Question is can you enable a delay to answer, so the phone rings at least once. Currently it just answers and is quite seamless if it was not for the music player die down I would not know someone is calling me.
Perhaps I should be using some application on the phone or PC to configure this. Perhaps someone can suggest a good PC dialer for bluetooth that has these options.
Any other tips on using BT via a laptop and headset would be great.
cheers.

Hi.
I just bought Klipsch x7i headphones to use with my galaxy s3. I am aware the volume buttons do not work for android devices which is fine but I assumed everything else would work fine. This is not the case.
The headset (and mic) work perfectly when MAKING calls to others, but the headphones become disconnected when RECEIVING calls (headphone logo no longer shows), and I can no longer hear the other person or speak to them through the mic.
What's the deal? Are there any apps I can download to help or do I have to return these headphones? After searching for an answer I have found out that third party mics do not work for the s3 but what I don't understand is the fact that the headset/mic DOES work when MAKING calls but not RECEIVING them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OK. I've narrowed down the problem. The headset stops working when I press the middle button to receive calls. In other words, if I answer a call using the actual phone, the headset works fine. If I do press the middle button to receive a call, I can no longer hear the other person nor can they hear me through the headset.
I noticed the iphone 5 headset works exactly like the klipsch x7i and has the same problem for me. Does anyone use the iphone 5 headset with the galaxy s3? Does the headset work for you?
I recently bought the Nocs NS400 (iPhone version) and have exactly the same problem. Google Now is also not listening to my headset when I press and hold the middle button. Receiving a call via the middle button somehow mutes my mic for good (and for all eternity until you re-plug the headset). When I am in a call and connect the headset later on, it's not transferred to the headset mic.
I re-soldered the volume keys (added some resistors) to make them work with the S3 (woks fine now) and figured that the original headset is doing something different with the middle button: while the iPhone headset is just doing a short between mic and ground, the original headset is having 50 Ohms here. (maybe that's [part of] the problem)
Could you find out more about this odd behavior?
Hi guys, i've been searching the internet with no avail, so now i hope the collective wisdom of XDAdevs can help me out.
I frequently need to do presentation on various places, and i fond thatO holding a microphone gets old really quick. I also believe in using my devices to the limit and beyond. I currently own a Plantronics edge bluetooth headset and a G3 phone.
so what I need is a way to use my bluetooth headset as a wireless microphone. In essence, what i need is to use the voice input on my bluetooth, transmit it to the phone, process it (if i want to) and output the result on real time to the 3.5 microphone jack, which i will connect to whatever sound system the room provides. Some apps I tried does the first part well enough, but unfortunately it transmits the output back to the bluetooth headset, and has no option to redirect it to the microphone jack. Can anyone help please? Much obliged.
Ps: my work frequently requires me to make phone calls without touching my phone or my headset. Can anyone recommend a good way to make the bluetooth headset phone 'listen' for keywords and voice dial my contacts selected numbers without me (or others) ever touching the phone or headset? Many thanks!
