Just wondering if anyone uses this with Skype, and what their views are. How does it sound on the other end? Are the onboard mics good? Has anyone used Skype with a Bluetooth headset and if so which headset?

It works fine.
I would also go as far as to say that the picture is better than my Ipad (don't flame me )
Never tried Bluetooth sorry but my wired headset, mic works fine that was meant for phone.

Oh im not an apple fanboy trust me..lol..but..i do know the ipad works great with the headset i have while skyping..worked withou a hitch. I have an acer iconia a100 and a500..neither work with the Bluetooth while skyping. I just hate wires and plan to skype from the road. The headset i use is for truckers..a blue parrott b250 and it has exellent noise reduction. I wonder if its just an acer thing..maybe asus will be better for skype and bluetooth.

Overall it works fine. But if connection is bad quality on other side is bad and you do not see it. Quality on prime stays perfect.

yes, it works with any iphone compatible headset... i've used my Astro A30's to make video calls on the TF
Mine does not work either. Neither in Skype nor in GTalk. It acts like there isn't a mike in the headset and uses the built-in mike. Same head-set/mic works on iphone and Galaxy S phone and on Galaxy-Tab...
What ROM are you running? I can confirm it indeed works. Built my own splitter cable so that I could use a separate mic and earphones with it.
Thanks!

Update: 2011/06/21 ---------- RMA'd my transformer due to the headset connection mic not working---
Received the new unit today and the mic port works great... I guess they've been in a bit of a hurry to get these eee pads out the door... Thank you to newegg for responding quickly and no charge.
Cheers, hope this is useful to you all, if it's broken, get it replaced, a.s.a.p.

It's work great with my JLAB jbubs J3M.
http://www.amazon.com/Atomic-Earphones-Microphone-iPhone-Compatible/dp/B002RWJDB6/ref=pd_cp_e_1
..Gtalk and Skype. And the Bluetooth Motorola S10-HD works too
As I hate earpieces in general, especially when using them for prolonged time.
Do anyone have a suggestion for a good headset with normal padded ear-muffs (unsure what they are called in English)?
The alternative might be to buy 3.5mm headset/mic to 3.5mm adapter (2xTRS to TRRS) and use one of my existing PC based headsets. Found one - see http://www.amazon.co.uk/Steel-Serie...GY/ref=sr_1_50?ie=UTF8&qid=1307990319&sr=8-50

Hi everyone, I'm just curious does anyone else have problems connecting Bluetooth headphones or a Bluetooth earpiece to there photon. And when I mean connecting I mean making the connection and using it for a long period of time. I can pair and sync but after listening to music for like 15 minutes the audio stops transmitting to the headset but the song shows its still playing. And yes the phone still says the Bluetooth link is still their. Any ideas?

I do not share your issue. Bluetooth works for hours on end with my car, and my s9s.

Delete my comment. I have the Epic touch and wife has the Photon. I use the moto rokrs with my touch, that wasn't relevant since this is the Photon section. So a big "no ****, Sherlock" to your this is posted in the right section.

Back on track...............Yes I do, BUT only when listening to Pandora. If I get a call and/or message, it sometimes goes out for no reason. I have to cut it off on the headset then back on. Again this is sometimes. Other than that, works fine!

I doubt you have a bad Photon (just my opinion) as we both have the same issue. If I am doing ANYTHING else, like listening to music from my card or stock internet radio, even YouTube, works great. Pandora is like playing the lottery with the headset. And its a Motorola Bluetooth Stereo Headphones.

Thanks, nice to know I'm not alone, sprint as usual told me we have to factory reset over the phone and they Guy didn't want to wait with me while I tested the headset. He actually hung up on me. Well anyway I tested using a Motorola h500 earpiece and also my turtle beach px5 headset, and I also tested using my wife's jabra headset and they all failed. But they work on my buddy's evo flawlessly

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.

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.
I did search didnt see it addressed so figured id see if anyone else has issues with Bluetooth. Ive tried my bluetooth headphones and speakers with 2 other phones and my tablets and have no issues. With my note im lucky if i can get more than 5 ft of range before it starts breaking up. Im currently running bigfau blackstar rom. Tried stock and cm10 jb but none made any difference in bluetooth. Also tried without my case still no change. Thank you for any input

i had the same problem, once i used a customised the rom, my bluetooth has gotten MUCH better.

i used bigfau regular stock rom that is close to original....so far, excellent bluetooth and reception. When i recieved this phone 2 weeks ago with the official ics, it crashed, bluetooth wouldnt go 2 feet!

I use my bt all day, every day for both phone and music and haven't noticed any difference between rooms, and I've tried a bunch.
That's strange. I have a set of Beats Wireless BT headphones.
I can be quite far from the phone with them still working fine. I've tried on all the ROMs I've tried; mainly CM9, PA (earlier), AOKP, etc.
Just for giggles, remove a case if you're using one and see if it improves. A TPU or plastic type case shouldn't matter, but just isolate it as a problem.
I use BT Tether between my phone and tablet reliably 5+ feet away, and my BT GPS works for at least 5 feet (and that's about norm for how far it goes; small antenna on its side), so all seems about on par to what I'm personally used to.
I haven't seen a thread like this but its really annoying. When I plug my phone into certain speakers and the data arrows come on, a loud squealing noise come from the speakers. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem?

It's feedback from the 4G radios interfering with the amp I believe. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong though.

try connecting to wifi if you can. It is interfering with the speaker.
I know my gaming headset crackels whenever I get a text message without it being connected to the headset, it is just interfering with the speakers

Its actually not headphones. I use the beats that came with my Rezound. Its only with speakers it seems like
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
Sounds like it only seems to happen on low impedance speakers/inputs. You might just need to stick with headphones or use some kind of external pre-amp. This is somewhat disappointing news, although I don't listen to music from my phone much.
Noticed crackling and static when on 4G streams of Pandora. Happens with headphones or hooked up to a mixer and speakers (higher impedance). Doesn't happen with the WiFi enabled for streaming, so I'm going to say Argumentation's explanation seems spot on... Just thinking out loud here, but would there be a way to slow down to 3G speeds for streaming? Sounds counter-intuitive as far as speed is concerned, but if it's the 4G that's causing interference, then maybe that will take care of it?
