(Sprint) Does anyone own Ibeats with mic? - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

I recently bought this phone and was listening to music, until someone called and I picked up the phone using the headset. However the other person didn't hear me and when the person hung up the music started playing through the speaker and I had to reinsert it. Is this headset comparable with the phone or is my headset messed up? Thank you.

Sorry I'm viewing this through the app and can't tell which phone you have. When I had my I beats and a HTC thunderbolt I had to go into the voice and input settings and turn on tty vco mode to get them to work correctly..
Also if you search the play store for headset controller there is some apps there that let you program the action button. You can set different responses such as one click answer call double click start music long press pause etc..

I have a gs3, but with my evo 3d I didn't have to do anything.

i have not test it with beats on the sIII, but it did do it with others ( as in other headphones on the sIII)! but i had the sII with beats and it did that exact thing!

That's just how it worked the one time I owned I beats .. thought it might be worth a shot..

I'm using the stock Beats headphones that came with my Rezound, with no issues. Buttons work and everything. I'm on Verizon though.

Did some research and apperatly the Ibeat's mic isn't compatible with gs3. That's just great

Atrix headsets

I have searched and found all kinds of conflicting information.
What is the story with the headset buttons and the atrix?
I have a headset that worked perfectly with my nexus one even with the stock player. With the atrix the phone takes over and the buttons only work to initiate a voice command.
Some third party apps such as winamp can get the play/pause to work.
So how do you get full music control on the atrix? If the answer is a new headset then why did mine work perfectly on the nexus one.
For full music control (not to mention audio quality) it would be best to use Stereo BT headphones, not a headset. http://goo.gl/ZiTpN
Hopefully there is a better way than BT. I really don't want to charge my headset.
worst part is that you can not received call with button on headsets.
as for music control...
do a market search for 'Headset Button Controller'
I know the button worked on my Atrix using the headphones that came with my Captivate for skipping songs and pausing. I don't know if I ever used it to recieve a call though.
I use Motorola SD9 HD's and all buttons on headset work. Auto switch for calls.
May have BT headset model wrong cos I'm in bar getting drunk!

Just downloaded the app. Looks great, hope it can do half of what it looks like. Looking forward to getting home and getting my headset out of my gym bag.
Thanks!!
I like my S9s though I use my T1 blue ant BT to stream netcasts/music and haven't wore them in a while. Running with my dog, at work, etc, I rather have an ear open and beautiful part is @ work no one knows I'm listing to the 404 or Android guys netcast ^_^ I'm just productive and waiting for a call.

Bluetooth Voice Dialing on SG2?

Hi all,
i picked up a skyrocket about 2 weeks ago (coming from iphone 3gs) and was really disappointed to find out that the skyrocket does not support bluetooth initiated voice dialing.
what i mean is that i have a plantronics voyager pro (awesome headset) where i long press the button on the headset and it then beeps to prompt me to say "call so-and-so" this way while driving i don't have to look down at the phone at all.
this does not work with the skyrocket. i chatted with samsung tech support and they confirmed this is not a feature they included on a 250 dollar flagship phone and have no plans in the future to include it.
does the sgs2 allow for headset initiated voice dialing? specifically with the voyager pro or more generally any headset that you have tried? thanks!
I have a Galaxy S2 and I use a Motorola Finity bluetooth headset and voice dial works fine.

You might get more play on this in the Skyrocket forums rather than the i777 forums. The i777 has a samsung version of vlingo installed from the factory that works quite well for headset button initiated voice dialling (talks back to over the headset). I'm surprised that skyrocket doesn't have this, but there are a couple other options.
First is Google voice actions - should be available in the market I believe
second (probably better) is vlingo in the market - free app does what you want...

Sorry about the confusion guys- to clarify I meant that I currently have the skyrocket and am thinking about switching to the sgs2 if the battery life is better and it supports bluetooth headset initiated voice dialing.
Thanks for the replies so far! Anyone else used any other BT headset other than the moto others have already mentioned?
I currently use a Sony HBH-DS980 and don't have any issues with Bluetooth Voice Dialing.

I use the Jabra Cruzer2 handsfree speaker phone and it works well - I did jettison the Vlingo app as I found it annoying to use and always kept my screen on (older market version, may have fixed in recent updates). I use ChoiceDialer as all I need it is for voice calling - I have no need for the other features that vlingo brings to the table.

I have no problems initiating a voicedial from my bluetooth headset, so long as the phone isn't in standby (black screen). That makes it pretty useless though, because if I'm driving with my phone in my pocket, I can't pull it out and enter my password to make the voice dialing work.
Does your voice dial work, even when the phone is in standby with a black screen?
There was another thread on this issue. I have the same problem. If the screen is locked with say the pattern lock the bluetooth headset will not initiate by pressing the button on the bluetooth headset.
Hmmm, am I doing anything wrong or what?
Anytime I tap Voice Command or Voice Talk then give it a command, it shows Processing with a cycling circle then hung.
It happens with or w/o bluetooth.
If it's hanging, then that doesn't sound like something you've done wrong. It should never hang.

I just hit the button on the back of Bluetooth and then say hello galaxy and it wakes up. it even turns on the voice talk for me. i don't touch the phone. Yes when screen is black. I use it in my backpack while riding my mountain bike.

It doesn't do that on miui.
I use a Motorola s305 and voice dial works fine. I didn't install any extra programs. Just hit the button on my headset and it worked. IIRC stock was that way to, but its been so long since I've run stock ...

Ford Sync and BT Audio Streaming?

Hi,
I have a 2012 Ford Focus with Sync and not able to get the audio to stream over Bluetooth on my Verizon GSIII. I've looked in the Bluetooth menu on the phone and it says phone and audio sync. However when I go into Phone mode in my vehicle, only phone call audio will come through the speakers but If I try streaming music, no audio comes through the speakers (or the phone). Does anyone have Ford Sync and has successfully streamed audio through bluetooth? If so, are there settings I'm missing somewhere?
I have no issue with my GS3 and Ford Sync. But I encountered it before using my older Android phone. I resolved it by doing a master reset and pairing them again. Hope this helps.
I don't personally own sync... My Mustang and F150 are too old but I drove my Dads Fusion yesterday. I didn't have a ton of time to play here is what I found worked....
First Sync the 2,
Then go in my phone into the Bluetooth menu and click on sync and make sure they are paired & connected.
(Generally in the past it just automatically did that like on my Tbolt.)
I'll let you know as I play with it more. It was very clear bluetooth audio at that!!
I have a 2011 Ford Flex and have no issue. Make sure you're saying. "Bluetooth Audio" when prompt by the voice command from the car. If you're still are having issues try pulling the fuse in the vehicle for your SYNC system (look in your owner's manual for location) for about 60 seconds, allow it to sit for 10 minutes, resync your phone and try again.

It worked with my DX2 so I can only assume it would work with the SGIII. It's not a very forgiving or likable feature though.

I have a 2009 Focus and have used several brands of phones all with Sprint and have been able to use bt audio. In some occasions I have to go to the bt screen and press and hold your bt connection and you will get a submenu that let you select the audio or media connection.

I did make sure the volume was turned up on my phone. The Sync in my vehicle has a button to press to go into phone mode and that is what i was in... i cycled through settings there but couldn't find anything for media. I also pressed the Aux button in the car to be sure it didn't want that mode, but that was actually looking for an auxiliary connection and not bluetooth.... I'll have to experiment some more with what some people talked about in this thread, but so far no dice.

turn you bt on, on the right side of Sync there is a (*) for setup, press it you will see the call-media audio settings. select the media setting and you should be ok. you MUST be Paired to do this with bt on.

[Q] Headset control button

Hi there,
Has any else had the problem with last number or missed call being dialed when you use the control button with the one x+
Only when listening to music with headphones
Still change even with The update..
Yes, wanted to ask the same
Using PowerAmp: one click start/stops, double click dials last call, long click open Google Now... Could not figure out how to change track until now :crying:

I'm using power amp pro but still no change, if I click next track on headphones I dial the last number in my call history,
I'm using Tiny call confirm App, this blocks the call and won't dial the number until you press yes on phone.
When I asked HTC they said it was a faulty phone but this is my second phone and still same problem,
Try using your headphones after you have received or missed a call and let' me know if your having the same problem.

So it seems the phone does not recognize a stereo headset is connected to it? It thinks it is a bluetooth device instead so when listening to music and you double tap your headset it places a call just as it would on a bluetooth device when connected? Sounds like a dumb phone, lol! Hope this isn't the case, i use jaybird bluetooth headset 5 days a week in the gym listening to music from my phone and always change tracks with double tap, answer calls, etc. Would i be effected by this when listening to music?
Never heard of this problem in a cell phone before?

Ya I'm having the problem too I tried two of my friends hox and it worked fine on one and the other called out my fix for this as I use Google voice is have me ask each time I make a call to confirm and has worked fine like that I can't figure out what setting is on though to make one work fine and the other not
Damn this sucks. So i guess in the gym i have to pull this lunk out of my pocket whenever i want to change a track VS. the shortcut keys on my headset for which they were built for. Thanks HTC, you're always the best!!!
Do your wired headset volume rocker adjust the volume on the phone? I'm using a good pair of Bose wired headsets to listen to music and watch videos on my device and it has the controller on the headset for volume and change tracks/answer calls/ etc. When watching a Netflix video though in the Netflix App the Volume Rocker on my Bose headset does nothing, i have to manually press the volume rocker on the actual device, Wow another Fail HTC and these headphones are fully compatible with Android and Apple devices.
I hope once we can get our phones Rooted a developer can make a tool/tweak to make our headsets work they work on every other device under the sun the way they should and stupid HTC prevents for whatever reason. Really a waste to have zero control with a headset for this device.
