I have my Hero's original handsfree and since 3 days ago only 1 earpiece is working, same thing happens with my mp3's ear headphones and other handsfree from my friend, all of them work on 1 "speaker" on my phone. I mention that all the above work flawlessly on my friend's phone. First I thought it's the rom, so I changed the rom (Android 2.1, 2.2, 2.3) but with no success. Yesterday I tried plugging in my regular headphones (those that cover the whole ears) that I use on my computer and both of the "speakers" work. What can I do ? Small headphones suddenly aren't fully working but my normal headphones work great.
Everything was working great until 3 days ago. Tried on calls, Rom's music player, video player, youtube, some online radio player, different music players, video players, no results. Please someone help me with an idea of what's going on and how to fix this.
"Hardware" problem. Try removing upper button from the volume control, usualy there is the place where wires are soldered to the circuit. - and usualy there they broke
Hint - to be shure try another working handfree before blaming phone/soft/firmware - HF must be for Hero for everything to work, and you may just put ordinary headphones to test left/right channel sounds.
I'm not blaming the soft or my handsfree or headphones or the firmware but I dunno why is it reacting this way ! But leaving the handsfree beside for a moment I dunno why the ordinary headphones work on both on L and R "speakers"... but the ones that go in the ears work only on L or R "speaker" and this ones work great on my mp3 player. They also worked on my phone until 3 days ago.
I've disassembled my phone and there's no wire on the jack slot .. it's directly connected to the main board and doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the bond. It's not possible if you think of it. Gonna call an exorcist for my phone or something gonna take it to the shop in the morning maybe they can take the evil from it thanks anyway
Edit : The guys over the phone shop fixed my problem ... there was something f**ked up in my Jack slot or something. Now I can use my handsfree again
maybe i was not correct, but in my case it was in teh "control box" of handsfree, i never opened the phone.
Hello all NOTE 3 users!
I would like to ask You about Your Bluetooth headsets experience with NOTE 3.
I started to use BT headsets more than 5 years ago (several types, Nokia, Motorola, SE, recently SonyEricsson MW600 and Sony MW1) and used it without any problems with Note1 and Note2, however with N9005 (stock rom XXUBMJ1) and currently Sony MW1 headset I am completely disappointed:
1. Headset disconnects by itself few times per week, does not want to restart the link by pressing "Answer" button until BT goes through ON/OFF
2. With BT headset connected - a few times per day - incoming calls, and outgoing calls starts without BT headset voice link active (even if BT headset is "connected"- in some cases during the call to start the voice link call bottom-right button on the note3 must be touched 3 times to in fact "activate" the headset voice link... => this should be ALLWAYS working!
3. SONY suggests Smart Connect (LiveWare) + Smart Wireless Headset Pro - problem exists with the software installed, I am testing it now without this software but with similar bad results so far...
Please post Your opinions and BT headsets types paired with NOTE3...

I'm using a LG HBS-700 with my N3, and have had no issues what-so-ever.
SONY MW1 does not perform well!
Hello, I am continuing tests - NOTE3 + SONY MW1 (most current firmware 0.1.E.1.6) with all software installed is not stable, but without Smart Connect (LiveWare) + Smart Wireless Headset Pro software....it is a Total Disappointment! SONY "Premium" headset stays connected with NOTE3, however almost each phone call - incoming or outgoing
does not activate the voice-over-BT audio (phone bottom-right software button on the call screen remains gray, so the phone speaker is active, even if You answer the phone call by pressing ANSWER button on the MW1 headset) - it seems that BT connection between NOTE3 and MW1 becomes "lazy" few minutes after the phone call end, and then does not start again until phone soft key is pressed, or phone call is dropped and another call attempt is made.
If any SONY development guys are reading- please test it.
I have used MW1 with Note2 - it was not very bad, however much less stable than MW600 which was truly PERFECT.
With NOTE3 this is much less stable with software, and without Smart Connect (LiveWare) + Smart Wireless Headset Pro it does not work at all.
I will write to SONY support soon
i tested my MW1 with Note3 at a Samsung retail shop and indeed I am very unhappy with the audio quality. the audii cracking a lot
Motorola Boom
Using this now after testing the Motorola Sliver II. The Boom is about half the price and the sound is the best I have heard in quite some time.
I use it all day for work and have had about 20 different models but for the price, the sound clarity and loudness make this a great choice.
The Sliver had issues where everyone talking to me said I sounded as if I was in a tunnel.
Try the Boom. You'll see!
I haven't had any problems with my Motorola HX550, in fact it has been a great BT headset for $40 dollars. No one has a problem with how I sound.
I have been using my Plantronics voyager legend with great results. For stereo music, I've had decent luck with the Plantronics backbeat 2. decent audio. I'm glad I checked this before getting and mw1 as I as about to pull the trigger on this to use with my klipsch headphones. Has anyone heard about the sbh52 from Sony yet or the mw600 with the GN3?
Heres the ones i use.. http://www.jaybirdgear.com/bluebuds-x-bluetooth-headphones/
been using a motorola Elite flip, no problems whatsoever.
No problems here with Sony hbh-52 and offcourse I have installed Sony software.

The best choice is to take the headphones with APT-x codec:
exemple Denon AH-W200

I use the Samsung HS3000 and get good results given the low price of this headset.

MW1 still does not work - no support from SONY
Hello, I tried to obtain answer regarding firmware upgrade through SONY Xperia care support forum - outcome is ZERO reaction from SONY so users - beware of MW1 - for those interested - link below.

I came back to MW600 and those headphones work with NOTE3 well.
Sony smart watch 2 seems to have some problems too - a lot of post regarding problems on the same support forum.
Plantronics Voyager Pro HD
Plantronics Voyager Pro HD:
Supposedly 6 Hours of talk time, I would say I've experienced less.
It knows when it's on your ear, but I don't quite know what this function really does because it still works even when off my ear.. sooo
Ear buds don't really suit me, it seems to mount alright on my ear but could seal on my ear better.
This really worked great for me at first on my Note 2.
I don't know if it's the headset because I didn't have issues with my LG G2 or Note 3 however, it seemed to pick up the mic very poorly. People weren't able to hear me well and I need to practically shout for them to hear me.
When I use my car's Bluetooth it doesn't seem to have any issues. It sorta cut in & out on my G2 though now that I remember.
Anyways anyone else happen to have the same headset?

Yep, best out there. Little expensive, but the sound is amazing, not to mention there lightweight, small size and long playtime. Grab some, you won't regret it!

My jaybird freedoms work good.
I use several bluetooth headset currently.
Jaybird Bluebuds X as my main bluetooth headset for music and vidoes and it's working flawlessly. Fantastic audio quality and loudness more than I can handle.
Jabra BT620s when I am home since it's more comfortable than bluebuds.
Jabra BT8040 most of the time and it is connected with my galaxy gear. This combo works really well. Clear call quality, good connection and perfect set up for me with my daily routine when I don't need to listen to music or watch videos.
Hi there!
I just bought my new Xiaomi Redmi NOTE 2 TDD 4G.
It worked grate 2 weeks. But now i have a problem whit the headphone jack.
When i connect small headphones to the phone there is no clicking sound from headphones.
But, when i connect larger speakers something like car stereo or home theater speakers there is the annoying unstopping clicking sound.
I have google it, some smartphones have the same problem. But on the Redmi Note 2 it seems to be hardware problem, because if i am in recovery mode its still makes the clicking sound.
May by somebody have the same problem or know something more about it, please leave a comment.
Thank you!

Same problem 1+
Same here
The strange thing is that if you remove and reinsert the jack from the stereo side, the noise will turn off
Does that by any chance happen while you're charging your phone?

Nothing like that on mine so far, been listening to music via my car's AUX input and headphones.
not have this problem (prime version)
hi, have u solved this problem? becouse i cant fix it.. :/
Some cables produce this sound, try another cable It worked for me.
I get this, but only if the plug is not fully inserted. I can even make this same noise using my Xiaomi Piston 3 earphones, again if not fully inserted.
Trying to find out of anyone else is having problems with their Vivo 5 Bluetooth connection to Sony MEX-XB100BT Car stereo or Sony stereos in general. I have tested my phone on a couple of neighbor cars (a 2013 Prius, and a 2015 Chevy Traverse with stock head units) and it the Bluetooth works fine. I went to Best Buy where I bought my care stereo and they were kind enough to let me swap out my head unit for a brand new one to see if that would work. Still same problem. Problem is....it pairs up just fine, but as soon as the music starts playing, it's sporadic and the music keeps doing this on and off thing like a bad signal to an FM station. I will look for a Sony Forum and post this same question. Just hoping someone has had the same problem and found a solution.
Mine does the same thing. I have a BLU vivo 5 connected to a JVC double din head unit and it acts like it has a bad connection or something because the music keeps skipping in and oit.
blu vivo 5 bluetooth fix
go to the app store and type (find myheadset) or bluetooth spp tools pro
Bluetooth connection to Toyota's interface is sporadic, at best

It's hit and miss as to whether the pairing from my Vivo 5R to the MediaCenter of my Toyota Aygo lasts 15 seconds or 2,3,4,5 minutes.
Useless!
Also, no texts will download, and incoming texts don't register on the screen.
There's a message "Would you like to add messaging?" which - when answering 'Yes' - returns the useless message :
"You may need to operate your device to allow messaging access."
Thank goodness I kept my trusty Motorola G [1st Gen] !
I've had my Buds Live for some time now and used them with a Pixel 5 and work iPhone. They don't appear in the Pixel 6 bluetooth pairing menu. The Galaxy Wear app sees them, but gives a "can't communicate" error when I select to pair with them. I made sure the buds weren't paired with any other device and tried rebooting my phone and reinstalling the Galaxy Wear app.
I've successfully paired another bluetooth headphone with the Pixel 6, so it should be working.
Any thoughts?
FIXED....I had to unpair them from my Pixel 5 first. Even though the Pixel 5 was turned off they wouldn't pair with the Pixel 6. I don't understand, but they're paired with the Pixel 6 now.
Just ran into this when I finally got my P6Pro... If anyone from the future finds this thread and like me you already factory reset your old phone prior to trying to pair your earbuds and can no longer go back and unpair them from your previous device.
Instead you can just put the ear buds in your ears and long press on both ear buds at the same time for 3 seconds until you hear a single loud beep from both earbuds simultaneously. That seems to put them into pairing mode. At that point your phone should be able to connect to them from the Galaxy Wear app.

I couldn't figure out why my Buds+ wouldn't pair with my Pixel 7 after factory reset and this solved the problem. Thanks for sharing.
