Best stereo Bluetooth headset? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

The Motorola s10- hd was nice but wife count hear me. Anyone else have any luck with something else?

Have always used jawbone prime or icon, never had any issues with hearing or be heard in either loud or quiet environments. Abit pricey but worth the investment. Both my wife and I are currently using the Icon and now she's on the S2 also. Lol

I have the Jawbone Era and love it, but not stereo. I used the Icon which was great too, amazing noise cancellation with both.
I tested them while on a motorcycle with open headers, the person on the other line had no idea. That good.

Jabra
I've tried quite a few different Bluetooth setups but i keep going back to the Jabra BT3030. You can get it on eBay for about $20. Its loud andbhas good distance and best of all you can use any headphones you want with it. I have had mine a little over a year and use it at the gym atleast five days a week and the battery still doesn't have any fade to it.

Headphone Jack issues

Hey everyone just wanted to know if anyone else is having issues with their headphone Jack on the Vibrant? I plug in my headphones but I always have to fiddle with it to get them to work. I have tried multiple headphones to see if this was the problem yet every one I tried the same issue came up.

LMAO same thing happened to me when I first got it
My problem is a little different. I have skull candy headphones with a MIC and sometimes the music will turn on by itself and I'll have to turn it off via the button on the MIC. This happens quite often when it is loud around me or windy(while I am driving). Anyone have a clue why this happens?

Vibrant vibrating nicely now,Kthx!

Such a kick ass phone but

I can't get over how poor the incall voice quality is on any Rom including stock. Thought about returning but hoping for a fix. Increases volume with crazyag fix but calls still sound poor often. Its not all the time so that makes it more baffling. Anyone else notice and have any solutions.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
I never have issues. More often than not I use a stereo Bluetooth headset. But, the caller sounds crisp and clear to me on stock, S8, UnNamed, MIUI, and ICScreweD.
What exactly do you mean by poor? Low volume? Static? Etc.
Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777)
It could be a problem with your hardware or your phone's signal. I don't have any problems with call quality.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777
If the problem is echoes heard by the person on the other end - use a case that doesn't suck.
A lot of cases make the echo canceller/noise reduction go nuts.
Its not a case as it happens occasionaly with or without a case. Its hit or miss.

No issue with stock, unnamed and miui.

It's not as good as my old iphone 4 but its better than most other phones ive used. The skyrocket had better in call quality to. But this phone is better and i dont talk enough to care. I say try the skyrocket if you dont care about the speed of the device. Or exchange it and see if the new one is any better
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA App
Talking isn't a big priority for me either but very frustrating when i do. Maybe ics will help. Strangely task's Rom seems to be the best so far. Just installed iscrewd so maybe that will be the ticket.

I've had people complain to me that the audio quality has been irregular on speaker phone and bluetooth. Some people have even told me it is echo-ish.
Mine sounds fine to callers, i just can't understand people sometimes due to low quality/clarity

Is it just as hard to understand various people from various phones? Or do some people from different phones sound better than other people/phones?

My wifes iphone sounds horrible but my bothers iphone sounds great. Weird.

i've been told that sometimes i suddenly start to sound like i'm a million miles away even though i didn't move the phone away from my ear.
kind of annoying because it doesn't go away until i hang up and re-dial the number. had the same problem with my skyrocket but never with iphone....
and this is with no case. still waiting for my otterbox commuter in the mail.
No issues here either, clear call quality. I came from a 3GS and 4 where my gf would tell me it would sound like an echo (no cases) or distance sometimes like mentioned above. Said that hasn't happened with this new phone and i sound clearer when calling her.
Not to confuse the op, but this issue in regards to what im hearing not what the other end hears and its sporadic too. I never get complaints from callers, i just can't understand them sometimes.

Beats?

Hi,
I have beats by dre and the buttons that came with the wired are similar to the Samsung headphones. What I mean by that is that they both feature volume up and down and the button for switching tracks and answering calls.
However, my problem is that the button in the middle for switching tracks etc works but the volume up and down don't?
Is there a solution for this?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yeah.... Just burst it open and switch the small cables until it works then screw it back together again. OR you could cut the wire on both samsung earpiece and beats, just switch them around so you got samsung buttons with beats headphones attached, simple!

It's not a problem exclusive to beats though, i think many 3 button headphones have trouble working with android devices. Maybe if you'd care to share a pair that work without problems, the OP would consider them if the issue is bugging him that much, telling him to 'buy proper headphones' doesnt really help him.
I have beats also and the volume up and down buttons dont work, but it's not a major issue for me. I downloaded
Headset Button Controller from the google play store, it allows you to control everything using just the single button (double tap skips to next track, triple tap goes to previous track etc) works well..

My cousin bought those, the sound quality is extremely poor.
Flat and tinny, bass is non existent.
For that kind of money you could get high quality headphones.
I got sennheiser HD 202's for around 30 euro.

Yeah I have sennheiser cx300 ear buds. £14:100%. Mate compared them to similar beats earbuds. Suffice to say the beats owner wasn't happy with the results

I have those too! I use them for when I'm out and about and the hd202's for around the house.
I think they are great quality and very reasonably priced!
When you buy beats 99% of the price is for the logo.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I've got the Pro's and they're really good! Not saying that for the same price you don't get way better one's, but they are really good for trance music. I would have got something else instead, but they were a gift.
Got the same problem with the 3 button cable. Also the mic is not working properly, making funny issues.
I just use the simple cable with no button.
I have been looking for a adaptor from iphone made headphones to others, but none that work for the s3...

Yeah they're good for the price. Its pretty hard to distort them. I think if you Mix poweramp, full bass and any Hybrid track though, you're in trouble. But they do me.
Bit gutted, got up on the bus, caught the chord on the seat and ripped the left out of my ear. Must have strained the connection as the left is only 75% volume compared to the right
Beats is a marketing gimmick
thanks

Better call quality

Hi guys,
I've been having some issues with audio, people could not hear me. So I stared looking for a solution.
This is what I did:
Phone, menu, call settings, un tick noise reduction, in call-sound EQ set to clear sound.
Let me know if this worked for you guise, definitely worked for me

Since I got my SGS3 everyone I speak to over the phone tell me that the microphone quality is so good that it sounds like I'm right next to them speaking directly into their ear. It sounds the same for me too.

Headphone Squeal

Does anyone have a rez WITHOUT the headphone/aux jack squeal? I have it and it's extremely annoying.
Sent from my Infectious Rezound using xda app-developers app
I have never noticed a squeal on my rezound when using headphones.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
You don't hear any popping, or a noise of any kind when you use the aux port but don't have audio playing?
Never had any squealing or popping, and I've had 4 different Rezounds.
Edit: unless you're taking about the staticy or hissing sound that you get with no sound coming out, that's been that way on every Android phone I've ever had.

Just spoke to vzw, they're sending me a replacement. On a side note, I've spoken to vzw regarding replacements a billion times (ranging from eris, to fascinate, to inc 2, eris, centro, etc.) and this was the single coolest rep I've spoken to
Get over it. Every Rezound does it.
I don't usually plug in my headphones and listen to nothing, so I've never heard the squealing or hissing of android silence.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
I only get it when using it as an aux out. To me, it sounds like the ground floats when it's not outputting audio, so anything powered gets it while anything unpowered wouldn't be effected.

rezound replacement number 2 had this. sent it back and havent had this problem yet.
3 different Rezounds and they all have it, it's annoying when I'm listening to music at work where the volume is very low. At low volumes it does diminish the audio fidelity. I also here it if on a call using the wired headset.
