can i use mw600 with laptops bluetoooth?
i.e all the music i play on my laptop..is streamed to mw600..which outputs it to connected headset.
so i can walk around and listen to music from my laptop in my room
Yes, all you have to do is pair it, and Windows should automatically connect and send audio through it. If it doesn't, just right click on the Bluetooth Devic and select "Control" - you should get a dialogue window where you can click "Connect." I use it all the time at work... fantastic!

Notice you won't get track names in the MW600 when playing songs from Windows, as it happens with X10.

It does that at all?
It doesn't for me, yet I'm using mediascape and this headset.
It never showed me anything else than the SE logo and volume level.
EDIT:
After googling around on this, I've found out that the ID3 tags via Bluetooth are not supported by Android OS at the time being.
Quote from SE Team's Facebook:
Sony Ericsson Hi All,
Here is the update:
1. ID3 information requires the AVRCP 1.4 in order to be displayed on the MW600. Therefore the ID3 tags will not appear on the MW600 when paired with an X10.
2. X10 doesn’t support FF/RW function.
All other functions should be as normal. The "start playback" issue experienced by Stefan shouldn't occur, this may be specific with your headset, can you test with another X10 at a store location?
As for you Tord, are you pressing and holding the power button until the pairing indicator appears? You should then be able to search for the headset via your phone. Let me know.

I am using ubuntu to connect to mw600. It connects without hitch.
but is giving mono output.
can someone using windows please tell me if they can hear stereo sound?
I use my MW600 with multiple computers (my work laptop HP 8540W and my home computer) and stereo bluetooth works just fine. As does using it as a headset for skype.
For ubuntu you may have to find a different driver for bluetooth or make sure your device/drivers support AD2P.
I have it is nicee
Unable to play songs on MW600 from my laptop
Hello Folks,
I have been trying to stream music from my laptop onto MW600 headset, but for some reason the music always escapes through the laptop speakers..!
I think I am already in love with this device, only that I am not able to use it to its fullest.
Also, if anyone can guide if this may work with Skype ? what is it differently that I may have to do to configure my MW600 to it ?
OS Platform : Windows XP Pro.
PS : I am not being able to figure out where the control option on the Bluetooth in the PC comes on.
Appreciating your help.
Regards

Hey guys I did some research already and it appears that the Xperia S can't connect to the USB on my car stereo and play music because it does not come with an MSC mode? I saw that there is a mod in the development section that allows you to mount your phone to USB devices and I'm wondering if that is a solution to connecting my phone to the car, or if there are any other alternatives.
Normally i connect my phone with bluetooth to an sony carstereo. It worked really fine..
I dont know if thats an option for you..
Some people say .76 fixed that problem.. Cant really confirm that. You can give it a try...

On my cheap kenwood mobile stereo there are no problem connecting and playing music from the phone...
I had a problem, but discovered that if i turned USB-errorcorrection or was it unknown sources off, the problem was gone...
Try to play a little with those settings...

Well the USB is my only option because I want to be able to control it through my car controls
I updated to .75 and I got the same error, also enabled unknown apps and usb debugging. Anyone know what else I can do to fix this problem?

I don't think you can control the phone through USB, but you might be able to via Bluetooth, if you have that.
(I have Bluetooth headphones and can change tracks from the headphones)

Have you got an auxiliary out socket on your car stereo?
Can you connect to that from the headphone socket on your phone?

OP you need to root so you can mod it to use the internal as mass storage. That'll fix it.
Ok then...
Maybe my cheap kenwood is just better at this then, but i doubt...
I have no rooted firmware just stock...
My carradio don't actually controll the phone, it just play the music foldere on my phone, and i am able to controll that...

Shoot, I was thinking about rooting it, apparently it will work if I access MSC mode? I just don't know exactly how to root it, is there like a new root method for .75 update or do you downgrade first? I'll probably find the answer if i dig through the forums but since this is my first time owning an android phone I didn't want to risk bricking it only weeks after buying it!
My car doesn't support bluetooth stereo unfortunately so only the USB cable is an option, and yes AUX works but that is besides the point.
I am in the same boat as you, I have an Alpine 105i, and the Xperia doesn't even know it's plugged in, so won't even charge, never mind be used as a MSD...
Let me know how you get round this if you do.
Hi there,
I've got really strange problem with my XPERIA MINI PRO - when I plug in the headphones, the phone wouldn't recognize them.
Only if I've had them plugged before BOOT of my phone.
So, when Iam turning on / rebooting my phone with plugged phones, they're working and recognized, but when I disconnect them, same problem -> phone ignores it.
So, my xperia mini pro can't recognize the action of plugging in phones in general. Have tried official kernel, custom kernel, few roms and its deffinitely a hardware problem.
Does anyone knows how does this phone recognize that? And what might be my problem?
Thanx for any ideas.

i have a similar problem on mine, but mine thinks it has headphones plugged it all the time! i downloaded an app called "headset toggle" it gives you a widget on your home screen to show if headphones are connected or not, and clicking on the icon forces a connect or disconnect of them regardless of wether they are connected or not, should fix your problem:

edit: just to add i have 4.0.4 and it works perfect on my phone
Headset not recognising
i am facing the similar problem...... my headset is also not detecting when i plug in, detecting only when i reset my phone and when i unplug again it's not detecting. i face this problem since i update my mobile to latest version (ICS 4.0.4)

Hello,
I had the exact same problem. It was a hardware problem. The only way is to take it in for service as I did. was repaired at electronics level.
Is it possible to solve this problem with headphones? Any app? Toggleheadset does not work for me. Thanks

i got similar problem. If jack isnt plugged in, there are some electronical noises in microphone, so i cant use, if i remove jack, the phone doesnt recognize. i ToggleHeadset, now microphone works good, and recognized that i removed the jack
what hardware causes this problem? i ask it because i bring my mini pro friday to the service, and maybe i'll ask about it there for repair.

This is a halfway software solution to make the phone work, for a complete repair i believe taking the phone to service is necessary.
I have a hardware problem where xperia mini pro (Stock Rom ICS 4.0.4) is constantly detecting headphones connecting and disconnecting. This stops all the multimedia with sound, so it was impossible to start a music file or video because it was automaticly paused).
Disabling the Live ware app (connect now app) did not help,
This may not work for people who can not make phone play music or videos after headphones are inserted,
I managed to solve problem with software and by inserting headphones in the jack once every boot.
You need 2 apps; soundabout and toggleheadset2 (widget),
soundabout does not need to be registered), you will just need to set soundabout service to run on every boot, and set the 'media audio' output to speaker by default.
Every time phone is booted or rebooted insert the headphones, then play a song, remove the headphones and toggle headset to off, every time you wish to use the headphones you will need to toggle the headset widget to on manually,
i recommend to have phone calls and messages also set to vibrate in case you forget to toggle after unplugging the headphones.
I have not yet managed to get working the headset microphone,
If the headphones work in iPhone they wont work in Xperia mini pro or arcs or 2011 device , u need JVC gummy plus , they come with adaptor to sort the problem

hey friends.
My wife is using the tablet (5.1) to learn how to play the piano using an app.
everything is going well other than the fact the tablet mic doesn't seem to pick up some notes correctly, and when she practices it either says she didn't hit the right note or didn't hit any at all.
i wanted to know if i can somehow connect an external mic (simply connecting one didn't work) that will be more... receptive?
on the bonus side, id prefer if i can hook up a mic AND a headphones or use an app to have the speakers work while the mic is plugged in (because the piano apps gives directions and uses a metronome)
please assist?
thank you!
Please help?
I suppose connecting only external mic is not possible, but you can try to connect wired headset or bluetooth ones should work for you.
I have a Sony Bravia Kdl 43w800c, which runs on Android 7.0
I recently bought Philips Bluetooth speakers.
I tried connecting my TV via Bluetooth
It didnt show Philips speaker in list.
I contacted Sony customer care.. they said my tv's Bluetooth can only be connected to 3d glasses and remote...
I was disappointed... My TV has Bluetooth , my Philips speakers have Bluetooth..
Is there any way to connect both?
I checked the installed apps list only Bluetooth share app is installed...
I tried installing Bluetooth app from my smartphone
It says APK is corrupted..
Did anyone else face the problem/
Developers please help me..
Thanks
