[Q] Music/Video sound via bluetooth on Vibrant (froyo 2.2) - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I saw several post re: listen music/video via bluetooth...but didn't find one for samsung vibrant specifically. I have 2 bluetooth headset - Motorola H505 and Samsung WEP405, both of which pairs and connects to my vibrant easily (I haven't root my phone), and i can get phone call sound but I can't listen to music or get sounds while watching video via bluetooth, sound just comes out from speaker. I checked bluetooth setting --> option --> shows check mark next to "connect" and "phone audio" but as I read several places, I don't see option for "Media audio".
Can someone help to resolve this issue...if I can get around this with my exisiting two bluetooth headset or i need to get any specific bluetooth which is compatible with this function ?
Thank you.

Motorola H505 and Samsung WEP405
are not bluetooth stereo headphones, you can not use this stream media audio, you can only use these for phone audio
The phone knows it is not a BT stereo headphone, this is the reason why it is not giving you the media audio option.

Thanks for your input, though would you please tell me what are my other option (bluetooth models) that would work for above mentioned function.

You need a bluetooth headset that has the a2dp profile on it in order to stream media.
I've read somewhere that the motorokr s9 headset is really good.
I'm also out shopping for a BT earpiece that I can listen to music omw to work.
Here's the list I currently have in mind:
Plantronics Voyager 855 Stereo Bluetooth Headset
Polaroid Pbt325Blk Bt325 Stereo Bluetooth® Headset
Samsung Modus 3500 Mono & Stereo Bluetooth Headset
Jabra BT8010
BlueAnt Q2
BlueAnt T1
Jawbone ERA
I'm kinda leaning towards the BlueAnt Q2 or the Jawbone ERA that just came out.

I did go ahead and looked at those bluetooth headsets.
Neither of them seem to support the profile that you need in order to stream media. Make sure that when you are looking for bluetooth products the profile description says "A2DP".

I have the original Motorola S9's, and they are pretty good. The S9 HD's (just the newer version) are supposedly a bit easier on the ears than the originals. They're worth up to ~$60 imo. So if you can get them for around that or less, that's a good buy.

I have a Sony MW600. You can get it for about $50 and rather than a clip-on, it's just a little module that you can plug regular headphones into. It has a decent microphone and the sound quality is excellent.

Try this application from market....called "super bluetooth mono froyo"....you will find it in first 10-20 search results. Then follow the instruction...very easy....which enabled my existing bluetooth samsung wep450...which works fine with all audio (including media and video) - haven't tried my motorola bluetooth yet.

Official HTC bluetooth stereo headphones?!

Hey people anyone had a look at a set of these for thier Hermes?? (look at bottom of the page)
I was walking through town today using the standard wired headphones and found it a bit of a hassle with the wire in ma pocket cluttering up space. On expansys they say soon to be released anyone been thinking of buying a set??
Alternate BT 2.0 A2DP Plantronics Pulsar 260 cans
These are also interesting dangly headphones:
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=139855 @ £47
The Pulsar 260 is a "pod" that connects to your musicphone over Bluetooth A2DP to provide stereo audio. A set of wired earbuds, with an inline mic, connect to the Pulsar 260 itself, where you'll find controls for track skipping and volume (which operate on the Audio/Video Remote Control Profile).
When a call comes in, the music stream is put on pause automatically - the user can take the call by pressing the button on the mic.
This control unit sporting Bluetooth 2.0 is for more discerning users with MP3-playing phones demanding high quality stereo earbuds and remote facilities for volume control and track selection.

@mrvanx: That headset looks just like the Itech S35 Clip available now in the UK I believe. Interestingly, the Itech is one of two stereo headsets known to work well with the TyTN.
That would be great, people wouldn't need a headphone Mini USB Adapter, althogh i know bluetooth stereo would be draining your battery more than usual, you can use this device and even use your own headphones (it looks like you can plug in any headphones), so if you have a dedicated pair of Shure e3c...... awesome.
Consider the R35, also from i-tech. Adds control buttons (although pause/play) don't seem to work with tytn - forward, backwards, and volume up and down do though).
I *really* like it.

Hi!
Any recommendations regarding the Plantronics Pulsar 260?
Thanx!
i have Jabra 620s (Bluetooth, stereo), working good on 1.34 Rom.
I am about to take delivery of a pair of Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 Bluetooth 2.0 stereo headphones with multipoint that should allow me to switch easily from Media Player to the phone, and hopefully also from my PC (eg Skype) to my Hermes. Question: I have been reading your posts on A2DP hacks, etc., with interest, but I was wondering if the latest HTC ROM had solved most of the problems or whether I still needed to do some tweaks to get good stereo performance.
performance is good (not great) you will still get a one second skip every 30-40 seconds.
SE HBH DS970 vs Nokia H-12W
Has anybody tried both SE and Nokia A2DP headphones? How would you compare the?
Thanks

The skip is a real drag. Any word when there will be a fix for this, if ever?
WOW didnt notice this thread had taken off!
Im really wanting something like the HTC bluetooth stereo clip, as i can use decent headphones with the TyTN untethered.
Is there anything out yet that can do the Audio/video remote functions with A2DP??? if so where cos im out of ideas and effort tonight

hopefully in the next update, a month or less could be any day now
.. or not
Have you guys eventually found a fix with the skipping issue?
I'm having this issue since I upgraded to 6.1. It was fine with previous Shap's 6.0 ROM.
Thanks.

Blueant Bluetooth

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?

[Q] Bluetooth Headset compatible with HTC HD2

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.

[Q] Bluetooth headsets for htc flyer

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

I got the newer jaybird's and they are amazing, and have an 8hr battery life.
I've tried a lot of headsets, Blueant, Plantronics, etc. The best I have and the best sound for voice conversation is my Motorola H17txt Bluetooth Headset . You can also list to audio like radio, music and video with that one, (mono only)
