Okay I've got an interesting idea. The title was kind of a spoiler, but I was wondering if I could use my phone as an Xbox 360 live mic. I have a cord that can connect to my phone and then to the controller. I'm just not sure how I would then use my phone as the microphone. Whether it be an app or something please tell me your ideas!
Oh and I've also purchased a headset off of eBay that will be here in a week or two though I would like a temporary fix.
Thanks!
There is a wireless mic for the Xbox, ours broke within days but I do believe it connected via Bluetooth, so see if your Xbox pairs with your phone

Hi guys,
i am thinking of buying a new bluetooth headset for my touch hd. I also got a ps3 and was wondering if i buy the official ps3 bluetooth headset will it work with the HD. Any Help in that issue will be greatly appreciated.
Yes, I bought one for my PS3 and whilst never had the need for bluetooth headset for the HD, gave it a go and it works fine. So now use it on the odd occassion, but otherwise it stays docked next to PS3.
Can't give a particular reason since i'm not an experienced headset user, but if primary use was for phone over PS3, perhaps not the best choice.
I just figured I'd chime in and let everyone know that this Bluetooth audio receiver works with the GTablet running VegaN 5.1.1.

I don't know if anyone had chimed in about this one, so I thought I'd share.
PS: I love deal extreme.
Do the track control buttons work? This might be what I'm looking for to use as a remote with my tablet plugged into my car stereo.

Track and Volume buttons do indeed work.
Thanks! Actually just ordered one mainly for my X though when I am on the motorcycle
Does it record sound as well? I know that the G Tablet has trouble receiving sound from other bluetooth receivers.

It's capable of sending audio back to the gtablet, as it has a mic, but I haven't tested it. I wanted a means of playing music from my GTab to my receiver, without using the subpar audio jack.
I just picked up a dock and HDMI is my new favorite method for audio output.
Bought one of these a while ago when I got my Nexus One and loved it but I wanted no wires and switched to Moto S9's. Just upgraded to S10's and I'm loving them

Was also using this originally with my nexus one. The idea for me, is to embed this receiver into the dash of my car, as the optional bluetooth is a $800 module.

I picked up two. I have a similar unit that I use to listen to podcasts while in my work van. I've never tried it with my G-Tablet, but the headphone jack has been bad since I got it. I figured at that price, they are nearly disposable.

I haven't used the headphone jack in any portable electronics I've bought in years. They just aren't high enough quality to survive being plugged into. Odd, isn't it?
This is why I got the dock, so I could do music at home with HDMI, and Bluetooth is for "on the road".
I have searched without any luck for a stereo dock that doesnt use the headphone jack. I have a logitech for my old iphone that u just set the phone in it and use the remote. Has anyone come across one for the galaxy s2 yet?
I believe there's one made by Philips which is available at Best Buy.

thanks,
I found this one too AS851 (Cant link yet). Comes with a remote and is 30 watts. They say you cant stream music thru the micro usb, but then how does the unit send audio and video to a HDMI cable, so I would think its possible. shrug

All of those docks use Bluetooth to stream the audio. From what I know the USB port on the bottom doesn't have the ability to natively send audio out of the pins. I would love to have a simple dock too for this phone that would let audio out without having to jack in on the top of the phone, but it's just not designed that way.
I used to have an ATT "Fuze" (touch pro) - used to have to carry a dongle everywhere with me to plug in headphones. I'm much happier that I don't need a dongle, but it does suck to have to plug in 2 things in the car to get audio and charge at the same time.

So I tested my prime when i got it for bluetooth/wifi issues by using a2dp on my jawbone icon and watching netflix. There was no problems as far as I could tell. I got a ps3 controller and got on onlive to play a game and realized a major wifi fall out. So I turned off bt and went into netflix, started up some Archer, turned on bt and connected ps3 controller, wifi degraded instantly and became unusable. Don't know if this has been reported as I have done a ton of reading and haven't come across this particular issue. Maybe its a bt profile issue.
I also just realized another strange issue. Does anyone elses dock act like you pressed "enter" when you actually presses "shift+b"? Here is it goes:
BBBBB
BBB
BBB
BB
after the first press it makes a capital b just fine but take your fingers off and do it again and it goes to the next line and no "B". weird.
I have the same problem with ps3 controller. So far its the only problem I have withmy prime. I love it and use it everday but it sucks because I also use oblige and hate having to plug the controller through usb. Hopefully there is a fix soon.

I guess I'm going to get a wireless xbox 360 controller, the one for pc that comes w a usb dongle or the universal onlive controller. The ps3 works fine with emulators, but I want one that works w onlive (xbox controller does). Just started checking out the onlive service and its actually pretty cool on a fast connection.
I don't use Bluetooth that much I’ve really never used it for anything except for trying my PS3 controller. I can use it wired though or use a wireless controller. I was just asking because I finally got a Prime that will run 18mb/s down in same large room as my router, consistent. So what can I do with Bluetooth that I can’t do wireless. Not a real big gamer I got a 360 and PS3 that mainly just sit there over 30 games for each. I do like racing games though. The only problem is that my Prime is mismatched which I don't really mind most of the time it isn’t docked anyways. I got it in an Acase.
My mismatched prime I like it really though, that's what matters. After 6 Prime duds, I love this thing!!!

Bluetooth is mainly used for connecting device to devices, which is something you may or may not be able to do over WiFi depending on what devices you are using and what kind of router you use.
I personally mainly use Bluetooth on my Prime to connect it to a couple fo different sets of wireless headphones while listening to music or watching Netflix. I have also used it to transfer files back and forth between my phone and tablet when I was away from WiFi. I have also used it to set up internet tethering between my phone and tablet (before I found FoxFi).
Sometimes I use bluetooth in my car to connect my tablet to my car stereo so that I can stream music from my tablet to my car, but usually I do this with my phone since my phone can use Pandora or TuneIn with its constant data connection.
I use BT mainly for either tethering internet connection, connecting to my Atrix and transferring files, photos, and movies, connecting to Atrix to use it as a BT controller.
24 hours bluetooth for tablet talk
Don't forget that you can also use bluetooth to connect to an external GPS device.

yeah, I do that also. forgot to add that in there. works great!
I used to use it for BT speaker when streaming netflix or pandora but when I'm connected to my home router my wifi degrades by a lot so it became useless. I noticed the same when I use ps3 controller and I'm playing online. But those 2 were the only reason I used it.
I use B/T to connect to Jawbone Jambox to listen to music when outside or I used it today to watch a movie w/o earbuds. Cool speaker & works well.

very nice BT drivers on the prime imho. Its been horrible on my phone^^ Had to use a few workarounds and install a custum rom to get it working with all my devices...
On the prime though, everything just works and connects instantly.
I use it for my ps3 sixaxis controller. Mostly gta3 and zen pinball. Everything works great. BTW if you want to try it, just plug the controller in with a usb cable then goto bluetooth and pair it then unplug the cable and done.

Does anybody know how to pair TF to phone and to use TF as handset to answer calls and maybe to dial via phone?
I use my logitech bluetooth mouse and keyboard with my tablet. I know I know, why not buy the dock but I had bought this combo way back in the day so it works.
I use the Wii mote with a classic controller for N64oid.
And the wii mote for gameboid.
Works great for me.

bluetooth audio and 3.5mm out
slightly OT question
I don't have a prime yet but would like to get one. Have one question about the bluetooth. Can one use the bluetooth headset and the 3.5mm audio out at the same time?
thanks,
I use the bluetooth to connect it to an apple keyboard when my dock runs out of battery.

How did you get it to work with the apple wireless keyboard, because I can get it connected but it doesn't do anything.

How exactly do you transfer files? I did this once before a while ago and remember it worked perfectly, but I simply can't figure it out now. I have the devices paired, now what?
I use my Bluetooth for file transfers from my come PC to the TF and same from my phone to the TF, also I use it for tethering for Tablet Talk
