Hi,
A couple of weeks ago, MW600 was working as expected. But at the moment, I've got connection problems. Is anyone experiencing anything similar, or do you have any tips?
I have tried restarting both the phone and the MW. The radio function works perfectly. I have tried renaming my phone.
Here's what I'm doing:
* Turn on MW
* Turn on bluetooth on phone
* Search for units -> pair the two units using code 0000 (starting from scratch, just in case)
* Phone states that MW is connected to phone and media sound
* If mediascape is playing, I hear ~1 second of media sound
* After 1-3 seconds, MW makes a sound (5 descending tones) -> the phone briefly states that MW is connected to media sound only -> the phone goes back to stating that the two units are paired (no connection)
What do you think?
Mine doesn't do that, so it's quite odd.. Do a full reset of the MW600 (manual here: turn off, press and hold down power until pairing indication appears, press power and call buttons simultaneously until headset turns off), delete it form the phone and try again. There's no reason for it to do that.
I found the battery life to be a bit short....10 minutes of streaming music and it shut off, all this after overnight charging.....I have repeat this 'issue' Friday night, Saturday and Sunday only to have MW600 dead at the office now
My runs 12-15 hours! Without any Problems.
Same, I can use mine for at least 4 days (about one and a half hours a day) before it needs recharging - are you using the right charger?

You press the buttons on the MW600 itself, not on the phone. Read the manual that I linked to, it's all in there.
hmm anyone else have problem with the ringtone playing thru the mw600? when the phone rings. i can hear it ring on the bt headset. but it's like play a bit.. then i hear a beep.. then it plays a bit more.. and beep it's like intermittent
The beep means, that the headset is changing from the mediamode to the telephonemode.
Update... The problem above came back. If seems related to using bluetooth and wifi simultaneously. Whenever I'm using BT and enable wifi, BT gets a lot of problems and usually shuts down. Does this happen to anyone else?
Also, in the past I could use the buttons on the headset to change songs etc. That doesn't work anymore, even after resetting the headset etc. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Update... Problem keeps coming back. My supplier suggested that BT and wifi might interfere. I'd be very surprised if a "smartphone" cannot play music over bluetooth and surf using wifi at the same time. My supplier promised to check it out and get back to me... That was ~2 weeks ago.
Is ANYONE else experiencing the same problem? Can you listen to music over BT, then enable wifi, connect to a network, and keep listening to music over BT?

I have wifi on 24h/day and most of the time i don't have any problems but sometime they get disconnected and i have to turn off/on BT and everything runs fine after.
I will have to try without wifi
Bluetooth and Wireless LAN (WiFi) both uses the same frequency space (~2.5 GHz)
Most of the times Bluetooth should be smart enough to adjust the frequency to co-exist with WiFi devices.
If your area are crowded with other Bluetooth devices and WiFi access-points, the Bluetooth set might having trouble settle on one quiet frequency, and might just sit there trying to switch frequency all the time, never finding a good frequency to settle on.
To help those poor Bluetooth devices along the way, try to change the WiFi access-points channels to create a free channel where the Bluetooth devices can settle on.
Also check if your WiFi access-points have a "Co-exist with Bluetooth" option, and enable it. It will however reduce the frequency-width and therefore the bandwidth slightly on the WiFi, but Bluetooth devices should work with less interruptions.
Connection problem with s60
Hello!
I have an MW600 as well - using with an s60 symbian nokia (6650 fold).
It works corectly when using in bt mode and listening music from the phone, but it alwways lost connection when turm the handsfree to radio. When listening radio, zthere is no connection, no way to get the calls or answer.
Do somebady have the same problem or somebody know how to solve it?
I did reset on mw600 and paired again, but i have the same problem.
á
i haven't had any problems with my MW. i always stream music from my pc via wifi to my X10, then to my MW via BT, witch is connected to a Reciver for party.
have you tryed restarting your MW after pairing.
My problem with this headset is that it doesn't:
1) caller name not displayed on incoming calls
2) Music/Mp3 tags not displayed on lcd (using Poweramp)
3) why does the phones itself rings not the headset just some beeps. Embarrassing when phone rings and then answer on headset.
Resetted but not solved any problems.
Wildfire running Wildpuzzle 0.8 with kernel 4.1 overclocked
Ok I m using mw600 stereo bluetooth headset with CM 6.1.3 V4.4 rom for 2 days now. The pairing is easy but the issues that I am facing are;
* phone has crashed/rebooted couple of times while pairing/ unpairing.
* besides first fact, it pairs without any problems and very easily.
* I have used it with mixzing and doubletwist media players. In both cases the music lags and sometimes the lag/pause is about 2-3 seconds long.
* incoming call shows phone number only, no contact name.
* voice dialing works.
* when I m listening to music or not listening to music on incoming call the headset converts to phone mode fine but after the call is finished, the headset doesnt reverts back to media mode that is, the music doesn't plays again and I tried connecting and disconnecting again but only way to make it work again is restart the headset.
* battery is so far ok for the headset. Infact I runned out of my phone battery while I was trapped in underground and listening to music.lol
* even the headset is connected, if I play youtube video, the sound comes from the phone speaker. In order for it to come from headset I have to play some music from using my headset controls and then play the video and then pause the track. This also happens with music app aswell sometimes. Like the headset is connected and if I play the song using my phone, it will play through phone speaker and I have to pause it and play it using my headset controls in order to listen through my headset.
So far its oki but its annoying the laggy music thing. It only occours in music playback, I spoke to my mate on phone for couple of hours using this headset and both ends could listen loud and clear.
i also paired it with my inspiron duo tablet and its working flawlessly....so anyone have any work around of the above mentioned problems? anyone facing the same problems? is it because i am using custom ROM? i am ok with the headset not showing song tags and stuff but music being laggy is not acceptable...because thats what i bought it for!
Any help would be much appreciated?
thanks
Hello all,
I have been using android on my hd2 for some time. There is 1 thing that I am unable to do which is frustrating.
Under winmo, I could listen to audio books via the Bluetooth headset, is this not possible on android?
Any help gratefully received.

It is quite difficult to do it in Android at the moment. There are a few builds where this is possible, like forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740963 (shubcraft) and forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=736545. However, these builds are not 'perfect' IMHO.
There are builds where you can listen to audio via bluetooth but if you get a call, it may reboot, like forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769026.
There is no build I have found yet, that has Hotmail ActiveSync support, complete Bluetooth audio (to sync with Ford a2dp), no SOD and good battery life!
I can listen thru my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS headset just fine on following builds and phone calls also :
HyperDroid
Bangster's
mdeejay
...rest I do not run regularly but I suspect will work fine
Is the media-routing Problem similar to my Problem ?
I dont know if this issue is known, so i post it here in hope, that it will be fixed =)
I have in all Android apps wich had something to do with the sound-input/output problems. I had no sound there.
I tested FritzApp! ( a App wich allows you to use your Androidphone as an normal DECT/IP Phone with the Fritzbox!)
Either my communicationpartner hears my voice nor I hear him. Dialing works perfectly just the sound doesnt
And with MicDroid ( Something like LaDiDa for Iphone). ( Records just "Rauschen")
Can you confirm this kind of issue or am I the only Person, plz post your problems.
Or is this problem known ?
kind regards

I would say that it is similar because even my BT system (on some builds) recognizes the phone, connects, plays music, dials calls, but there is no audio (in/out) once the call is connected. This is confusing because there is no issue in connecting as an audio device, the problem is in the phone device.

Anyone ever have connectivity/inconsistent connectivity with Bluetooth on the Vibrant?
I never use it, but another XDA user mentioned they were having issues.
If you have had issues, what suggestions can you make?
The only connection problem I have ever experienced is sometimes with my phone, it will connect --- disconnect ---then connect when I first turn on my car (Infiniti m35) but it does that all in a matter of 5-7 seconds then it never has issues after that. Bluetooth is remarkable on this phone....... wish the GPS was as good. Running latest Bi-winning now
Me and my wife have both had the same issue with a paired device not connecting and you have to turn Bluetooth off and then back on and all is well. Doesn't happen often but can be a little annoying when it does. By the way my wife's vibrant is completely stock and I'm on cm7.

I quit reading when I saw m35. Love that car. Oka, want to hire a NC boy for cheaps? ha.
I use Jawbone Era and it randomly disconnects even when phone is in my pocket and bluetooth in ear. It reconnects a few times but mostly I have to turn the headset off/on to reconnect. Froyo 2.2.1 is better with Bluetooth than 2.2.0
It might be the headset though, our phonen is one of the FEW devices that has Bluetooth 3.0
Even the new LG G2X has 2.1 and not 3.0
I use bluetooth headset regularly on bionix 1.3.1. No disconnections, but the signal strength seems week as there is lot of distortion if the phone is in my pocket. So I have to always hold phone in my hand.

The issues I have (no matter what ROM I use) are Connect - Disconnect - Connect and then the stack is hosed. Have to reboot the machine to get Bluetooth to reconnect (Using Motorola H117). Also, can't figure out the exact pattern, but if I get a notification while bluetooth is on I turn it off and no more notification sounds... or ringing... or anything. I have to reboot to get sounds back.
I connect to my car stereo and sometimes I hear skipping. With my plantronics headset sometimes the signal gets weak if the phone is in my pocket
Sent from Glensta's phone
It is a weak signal in the phone. I have had several phone over the years and my old nokia flip phone was the only one that could do more then 3 feet without issues. My HTC kieser, HTC Shadow, N1 and my current SGS all have issues with my BT headset if the phone is in my pocket on the opposite side of my body from the headset. My old Nokia would let me use the same headset a room away so go figure.
One thing I have noticed is I if I try and transfere a file to any phone(other then the nokia) the file transfere always fails. It works to and from a PC but not to another phone of any kind(except the nokia).... very odd.
my bluetooth has been inconsistantly connecting since I started using 2.2.1 ROMs. it always worked fine previous to that on all the 2.2 ROMs I used.

After turning bluetooth off on my phone or turning off my headset once or twice I frequently lose all sounds as well. Glad i'm not the only one.
I have the problem of sound not switching back to the speaker if I turn off either the headset or Bluetooth on the device.
How does Samsung screw something as simple as this up and it not be fixed after 4 official updates?
Nothing about Samsung's top notch screen is worth dealing with the headaches that come with their software. I'm trying to wait for the second generation dual core devices but, if I see good reviews on the Sensation, I am jumping off the Samsung emotional rollercoaster.

I have been back and forth with Samsung over the past 6 days attempting to troubleshoot this.
I have used a Motorola H117 and a Rocket Fish Stereo Headset that I have used with the phone. The following *almost* replicates the sound system crash every time.
1. Turn on Bluetooth headset
2. Press button
3. Voice Dial a contact
4. Phone conversation for 25 - 30 minutes
5. Disconnect phone conversation
6. Bluetooth remains connected for another 20 - 30 minutes
7. Turn off Bluetooth headset... no more sounds from phone.
Nothing fixes it short of a reboot of the phone.
I am running STOCK 2.2 KB5 right now. Factory Reset, No root, on the 5th Phone replacement from T-Mobile. I have an open case with 2nd Level support with Samsung however they have given me every excuse from "It's your headset" to "We don't replace phones". I have not asked for a phone replacement and I am earnestly trying to troubleshoot this problem with them.
If anyone has any additional information, please add it to this thread. I have passed the URL for this thread on to Samsung (I do not know if they will bother with hitting it) but I am cross posting at the T-Mobile forums as well as publishing on Twitter.
My only issue is that I have to manually connect bluetooth every time I get in the car. I don't know if this is a problem with my phone or with the bt-fm transmitter our both. otherwise, once I'm connected, music plays great.

I have the same problem. I found an alternative to rebooting your phone to hear your sound again. Just play a visual voice mail message and hit the speakerphone button in the UI. Your sound will return. You can also play a google voicemail message and hit the speakerphone. It's not a fix but it will keep you rom rebooting your phone several times a day.
I use 2 Bluetooth devices on my phone.
Sony bluetooth headset:
Skips a lot, depending on what I have running. It's worse the more apps I have. To get the best performance, I usually need to end task everything that's running, clear all RAM, then run the music app again. I use the stock music app. I have had better performance out of several ROM's. I think it might be tied to the kernal used, depending on how much space is left (i.e. Bullet's 339mb kernal that I'm using with Simply Honey). Almost like there's a buffer issue.
Kenwood headunit:
I only use the bluetooth connection for handsfree while I'm driving. The only issue I've encountered is that the bluetooth connection is not always automatically restored everytime I get in my truck. If I go into Wireless and Network>Bluetooth, I can get the connection working again. It seems to always be a phone issue, not the headunit.
If you want a beta tester for something, let me know. I use both the headphones and headunit quite frequently.
We just got a '12 Honda Odyssey.
My Sensation works perfectly with the car's bluetooth but the wife's Vibrant is crap for connecting. Very disappointing. Came here hoping rooting her phone and installing CM7 would fix the problem, but that appears to not be the case.
Shame.
No more Samsung phones for us....
I use trigger 8/22 and the Bluetooth works better than ever. Stock gave me head aches

+1 for Vibrant bluetooth problems. I have a garmin nuvi in my car and sometimes it works, sometimes I get the connect-disconnect-connect, and sometimes it doesn't even try to connect.
I've tried stock, bionix 1.2, 1.3.1, and NextGen 2 and only bionix 1.2 seemed to work reliably.
When it works it is fine.
When it does the connect-disconnect-connect thing it sometimes works for phone calls be most often the audio is going through my handset even though the phone claims a BT connection has been made.
Finally in the case where the BT stack is so f'ed up that it doesn't even try to connect it seems like there's some serious battery drain that doesn't show up on the battery stats screen. I suspect the BT is stuck in some kind of loop that causes it to fail and burn lots of power.
The inconsistency is probably the most aggravating part of the whole thing...
I have a strange problem with Xperia Go phone and bluetooth headset. My voice is distorted in the direction to person whom I'm speking and I can not use the headset as daily use.
It seems like the microphone gain is set full-time maximum. If I talk quietly the sound is clear, but if I raise my voice it get distorted.
And this is not just me, some of Xperia (Go/U/P) phone owners report same problem in Sony Xperia™ support forum. For some strange reason, some users do not seem to have any problems?
I've tried three different Xperia phone and five different bluetooth headset device, all have the same problem. Other brand phones with headsets working as it should.
The same problem occurs with a stock ICS / JB and CM9.
How the headset microphone gain is adjusted, is there some mechanism for feedback from the phone? Does anyone here have the same problem?
I had this problem a while ago, Xperia U with Jabra CLIPPER, after using the "repair my phone" functionality in PCC, so contacted the customer support in Jabra and they told me to wait until the battery dies, then recharge, also to use it with Wi-Fi disabled, does not really make sense to me but noticed some improvements, finally sold it, and used a wired headset instead... sad but true...
I have also tried everything to fix the problem: wlan off, charging, screen off, repair phone and hf software, isolated phone to another room (to see if internal mic is active same time with bluetooth mic), tried every settings in audio.conf etc.
I have noticed that the "distortion threshold" depends on bluetooth device - the more expensive device (more sensitive microphone?) - more distortion.
Also, Jelly Bean brought little improvement in the situation, but it does not fix it completely.
Does anyone have an interest / skills to investigate the problem more? Is it possible to monitor messages on phone and the bluetooth device to see if the phone tells bluetooth device to set mic gain at maximum?
seems like my xperia go also having the same problem.. when using bluetooth headset, people cant hear my voice clearly, the mic too sensitive causing my voice distorted, and this problem only happen when using bluettooth headset. tried with a few different bluetooth headset and the problem still there.. any solution for so far? can this problem solve by sending phone to sony service center?
hi all,
after updating to official ROM 4.2.2 on my samsung Tab2.7.0 i'm facing problem with connecting my BT headset (plantronics m55). BT connects but i hear strange static or distorted sounds on the both ends (ie. caller and receiver) this issue is only for phone calls.
But headset works fine for VOIP calls, Skype and listening to music and voice guided navigation.
I tried unpairing and and resetting a number of times but nothing has changed, i tried to connect another Plantronics M55 to my tab still the issue existed.
both M55 BT headset worked fine on my iPhone.
Please help to fix this.. I have made exhaustive search but couldn't find a solution.

Seems more like a problem with your carrier. Can you hear this sound without the BT also? even faintly.

Are you only using skype and VIOP on wifi?
Could be the way your device handles carrier signals, in such a way it interferes with the bluetooth signals.

thanks for the reply... i had been using the stock based rom and was working fine... now again i switched to it(sungsonic hd anniversary edition)...
it is working fine with it.. but out of eagerness i am expecting some solution for it in kitkat custom roms, because they are slimmer and faster... anyhow thanks
looks like this problem started with the official jb update and continues with the M builds for tab 2 series.
