So, It works ok, no skipping issues, but the sound quality is subpar, even with the bluetooth regfixes. Hard to describe, but there is a hiss or more like a high pitched whine in the background, and it sounds tinny.
My sony ericcson ds970 worked a lot better in this respect, but does it works good as a handsfree set on the tytn? on my previous phone it did not.
Isn't that a bit of a letdown I wonder if the S35 has the same problem...
Mr
Well, it'd be interesting to know if others have the same problem, and if people are able to fix the ds970 skipping issues, because it's sound quality is good.
I got the ds970 to work handsfree I even mapped the voice command to it and works like a charm, I still do get the every 30-50 second skip in audio.
Mr
So, how bad is the skipping?
it's a one second skip every 30-50 seconds on mp3's,
doesn't skip during voice calls (at least I haven't noticed any)
Mr
Tell me when it's fixed or when another as good headset comes out
I've used the S35 with my XDA IIi (Alpine), MDA Pro (Universal) and XDA Mini S (Wizard) and on all three I can say that the audio performance is excellent. I suffer no skipping at all.
Yes, it's skip free for me aswell, the R35, but the soundquality is pooor
This must happen on the songs you are playing, or you are an especially keen audiophile.
I am listening to Vanessa Mae playing Minuet (WMP) as I am typing this on PIE with my Dopod 838 Pro... there has been no skipping so far and the music I am hearing has no hiss nor is it of poor quality as described.
In all, I think this R35 has been a good companion on my travels so far, giving hiss free and distortion free use, works as a stereo headset as well as voice headset, with my Dopod 838 Pro, and I can even replace the ear buds with ones I prefer, which is a lot more than can be said of existing competing products in the market.
But then again, I am no audiophile and my ears are old, so the lack of quality may be undiscernable to me.
It's not the songs, and I'm not that much of an audiophile, the stock miniusb headphones sound good enough, maybe you could compare with them?
The r35 sounds much much worse than those.
What rom? do you use btw, I could try yours, I don't know if there could be differences between individual R35s.
Personally I find that my R35, combined with sennheiser MX500's, gives as good as the built in headphones. I also find that I'm getting good range (circa 5 metres - less range if air isn't the only intervening material - although skipping/noise increases with increased range).
I used the bluetooth and audio mods recommended on the tytn wiki.
Also have the r35 - have to say that on my headphones and in the car (via mp3 jack) there is a bit of a tinny sound. On the stereo system in the house, however, it has a much better quality...
UPDATE
---------------------------------
Enabled joint stereo again, set quality to 58, reset and repaired the R35, and voila, rather good quality, no skipping.
It's still a little bit noisy and tinny, but it's good enough, I'm using it with the excellent Creative 630 in-ear headset, good for better bass reproduction. Maybe some tweaking in pocketmusics equalizer could do it good.
Anyways, happy for now, let me know when something that improves a2dp comes out!
Where can i purchase an R35??? (hopefully a Black one)
Ebay baby.

Do we know when the HTC S100 (almost the same thing) is going to be released?!?
I also got the itech R35. Got it working fine, no skipping etc. All buttons work fine with WMP.
But I also noticed the poor sound quality. I apply the registry tweak:
[HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings]
Add new dword, Value name=BitPool; Value data=58 (Decimal)
Add new dword, Value name=UseJointStereo; Value data=0 (Decimal)
My registry does not have the Settings folder under A2DP and I created it manually. It also does not have the UseJointStereo with the original value data=1. I added this one manually too.
Anyway, after adding those registry tweak and reset my PPC, no sound improvement at all. I also repair the PPC with the R35, and no improvement on the sound quality at all.
Any clue?
So you wouldn't advice me to buy them...Well the problem is I have ETYMOTIC 6i Earphones and I would like to use it with TyTn...I know there should be out an adapter for this...any suggestion?
anyone that has a good sound quality with the itech R35?
I only use it now in the car to connect to the car stereo AUX input for receiving phone calls.
asci, other BT adapter that also has the normal 3.5mm audio output is the Globalsat BTH-820. Never tried it, so I do not know the sound quality. But from what I read, its not the BT headset/adapter, is the MS BT Stack that cause the poor sound quality.

Hi Evry1. I am after an average quality bluetooth stereo headset for my HD. I love music and like to listen to my favourite tracks on the go (on the way to office and uni everyday & sometimes at home from my lappy). Ideally I would love to have amazing quality sound output but can't really be bothered to wear those chunky headsets that offer the sound quality to my satisfaction, so I decided to go for an average quality bluetooth headset for everyday use.
After going through some reviews I'm thinkin of buyin a motorola s9. I know it has issues with the buttons but I don't go to gym and don't get time for even light exercise, hence I have nothing to worry about, on that part. But, unfortunately, I can't seem to find any UK based dealer where I can get it from. Ideally I would prefer a shop where I can take the thing back if anything bad happens.
I would also like your opinion on my choice and if there is any other headset that you might suggest.
Cheers...
Doesn't anybody has anything to say?!
ah, here's my 3 cents...
Firstly, the new model is S9 HD...I considered that and some others and finally bought the Plantronics V855. I didn't need very good stereo music, and so the 855 is okay for me. At best, the call sounds are great. I didn't like wires and the 855 had just one simple wire that links to the other ear, unlike those like the SE DS980 (great stereo music).
The S9 HD (to me!) looked very out of place (aka awkward, ugly) on a person when worn - at least that what's I gather from seeing 2 persons wearing them on the streets.
Additionally, some reviews pointed to poor call voice sounds (ie. soft).
...it's really your preference in the end.
I think I'm gonna go with the DS980 then...
Dint get a bluetooth headset at the end, instead got a seenheiser CX 400-II headset... Mind blowing quality. glad that i made that choice...
I'm wanting to get a Bluetooth headset that is decent and cheap. Nothing spectacular just something that doesn't echo and is ok quality. Anyone have any suggestions?

I don't know about cheap. I've always been under the impression that you really do get what you pay for. If you are looking for a good bluetooth ear piece, the Jawbones (though not cheap) are by far the best when it comes to functionality. IMHO it filters out wind and other background noise, keeps the sound and mic clear, and is a great piece of hardware. FYI, I worked witha cell phone recycling Co. for a while and was able to play with many devices, I was most impressed when comparing all products. On the other hand, if inexpensive is your goal (with good function) MOTO, good solid Product, not quite the tech advantage.
-Just an opinion
Bluetooth Headset
Hey there,
do u want a HEADSET, so that u can use it to make / recieve calls
or just bluetooth Headphone to listen to music?
I use this one
"Arctic P311"
since 1 year about 2-3- times a week for training / listening there musik / internet radio
sometimes during training i recieve calls and there it did work / no call partner said somthing about bad sound
/training is just inside - so i cannot tell u something about call quality outdoors.
Motorola S305 are pretty cheap, solid music and phone call sound as well. The other day I was biking and a friend called and was able to hear me fine even while riding at a medium pace.
I went for the LG HBS700 and am very happy with them.
Hello XDA Community.
I'm planning to buy the SBH80 Bluetooth Headset from Sony. I saw them a while ago and I decided to give it a try and buy them. The only thing that I don't know if it supports native noise cancelation, like the headphones that were included in the package.
I think it should work since Sony uses the two microphones built in the included headphones to cancel the noise, and the SBH80 does have two microphones as well.
Does anyone know if they work as desired?
Thanks!

I remember vaguely that z2's noise cancelling works only with MDR-NC13EM. But I could be wrong. You could try asking Sony directly, but customer care reps probably won't be very helpful considering the vast number of headsets and phones Sony makes. Sending an email would be a better idea. Best thing would be to borrow an SBH80 from a friend and see if NC works on your z2. If you find the answer, let us know as I was also considering SBH80.
The purpose of two microphones on SBH80 is for HD Voice (cuts out background noises and makes it easy to recognise voices) so it would not support noise cancellation.
sbh-80 is independent hardware/software so there is no possibility to make it works
...in HD voice this cancelation isn't for us -this is for those we speak to
z2 has special microphones in earphones and special processor for cancelation in phone
it will newer get works with this processor with bluetooth headsets becouse its need almost perfect 0ms latency to make rotate soundwave 180degrees
and bluetooth connection isnt so fast
if there any possibilities to make fuse the hd voice canceling thing works for music I think sony would implement that
maybe those two microphones are doesn't quality good as they should be
sorry for my poor english
Hi everyone
I'm using the headset shipped with P20 Pro, which is not too bad as listening, it is vry bad as microphone though, with very low volume, which makes it nearly useless for phone calling in an average situation; I don't call always into a totally silent room.
Is there any decent headset you could suggest me?
I would prefer a corded headset, and NO please nothing like studio headset, I am not a deejay just a freelance journalist which walks a lot.
It really depends on the budget to be honest, but I would suggest the Libratone Q, they are around 200$. HTC and JBL sell some too but not sure about the quality
