Okay, I'm not trying to reinvent the will. I'm curious thought, what are some good compatible bluetooth headsets for HTC TC? What are the bad ones? ....using Murato Radio and Original Rom!!!! Or any other radio/Rom combo!
I have seen a post on headsets/stereo music/phone thread. But not one with a specific list of compatible headsets.
I'm asking because I'm trying to figure out if my brand new (one week old) device have a bad bluetooth problem or do I need another headset. Currently using Plantronics Voyager 510, and I cant go 3 feet without it getting choppy and static, sound quality is f**k*d up!!!!
So I will post first: Plantronics Voyager 510 ....NOPE!!
Just be sure and purchase from a place that allows returns if you're not happy with them. Find some you like on your own.

Jabra JX10 Series II: Works well
I love my Jabra BT620S
well i have a Plantronics Voyager 510 and have been using it first with Artemis and now with Polaris and i have to say its THE BEST heatset i have ever used (and there have been many!)
good up to 15m and sound perfect.... you have something wrong either with the headset you have or your Polaris
I'm currently using Philips SHB9000. At first signt, it pairs but no headset icons on the top bar (which means all the sound goes through the speakerphone).
Using BTAudio, sound gets redirected to the headset (still no headset icon) but quality is awful, using HomeScreen PlusPlus UI A2DP option the icon appears and sound is incredibly good.
I was using Murata radio/udK R8 when I bought it one week ago. Changing radio or ROM did not change anything so either it is OS or headset related.
Regarding your choppy sound, try this method (especially for Plantronics Voyager 510) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2533699&postcount=13, this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2533699&postcount=14 and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1317007&postcount=18

Thanks for the resource everyone. I appreciate the response and the help.
I purchased the Plantronics Discovery 655, and guess what? The exact same thing is happening. I still get choppy reception at times.
though I have noticed it is slightly better then the previous headset. And people who I'm tallking to say that I sound alot more clearer.
My conclusion, now, my phone has a bad radio. Either the bluetooth hardware is jacked...or my radio is horrible.
What do you guys think?
BTW i purchased it from a website and I didnt get any warranty on it.
So I called HTC and complained about my bluetooth connection. The lady (valerie) told me that as long as it works, they are not interested in the quality of the connection. After complaining a little more, I ended with the conclusion that I have to test alot of headsets until I find the right one. So to add to this thread:
Good connection will be defined as, "clear crispy hearing on both ends, no static and choppy sounds, and the ability to walk away at most 6 feet (maybe 3 meters) from the phone and still maintain sound quality connection with the phone: Good connection".
So those who have post already with their headset, can you repost to determine if you have "Good connection". My only purpose for this is to purchase this time the "right" headset instead of numerous returns to the store to find the perfect one.
Jabra JX10 series II
Jabra BT6210S
Phillip SHB9000
Do all of these fit the Good Connection definition?
Thanks for all who have post. I truly appreciate your help. You are helping me save money and time!!!!
Yes, JX10 series II: Good connection (FYI, not sure about the series I, as there are some firmware changes that happened.)
I think I can say that Phillip SHB9000 has out-of-the-box a fairly good connection (did not test the 3 meters test yet and had natively choppy sound before the registry modification) with my TC.
After the reg modification it has a good connection (still did not checked the 3 meters connection but I never get disconnected), but it can't be compared to the 2 Jabras at it is really dedicated to listening to music (covers almost all your ears). It is the first time I'm buying that type of headset and it is really a different world than usual headsets (intra auricular or in-ear). The sound is clear and all details are present.
The only drawback compared to the other is obviously the size...
BTW, disconnection problem with Jabra headsets could be solved by HTC official Bluetooth fixes (as one has been especially made for them) and BT disconnection is also relying to the ROM version.

Jabra BT8040
I use the Jabra BT8040. It has as major advantage that it not only supports the handsfree profile, but also wireless 'stereo' (A2DP), so I'm able to listen to music on the headset too.
thanks muyz
after applying the patches from HTC's website, my Jabra BT500 works pretty good. the issues before were addressed and it works fine now as a hands free in the car headset.
i have tested it while walking and talking and something strange i've never encountered: crackling noise. it's as if i was on a wired set with bad wires. as soon as i stop moving, the connection is back to normal. strange. this is why i said it's great for in car connection since the phone and your head will stay relatively static.
looking for a new headset myself actually.
Hi,
I'm using the Jabra BT3030 which also support A2DP for my music listening. After I applied the bluetooth fix from the htc website it's working flawlessly, with no loss of connection as it did before the patch. Very happy with it.
what does the Jabra BT3030 look like? Is it jus the dog tag thing...or is it also wired or wireless plugins? Can you take a quick pic and upload?
Thanks
I tried looking online and I only see the tag piece...is that it?
i'm using Jabra BT620s - work's perfect
i had just some break's in stereo while running in traffic (maybe caused by other BT devices from cars?) - so I changed A2DP setting in SKTools and now it's perfect
strongly recomend
slightly off topic, but what are the registry hacks people keep mentioning
I have 8 cruises for my company's engineers and all of them are moaning about the carkit connections. We have applied the hot fixes and they are still generally rubbish
a selection of the carkits ;
nokia ck 7w
motorola HF 850
focus c-max bluetooth in car
Auidi bluetooth in car
various jabra headsets
motorola HS 800
Keeps cutting out. poor/ tinny sounding, mine (Moto hf 850) makes outgoing calls ok (sometimes) but takes about 15 seconds to hear voice of othter caller on incoming
???????????

Anyone ? this phone is pants, great pda tho
…and for the HBH-DS980 ?
I have a Jabra X10 Serie II, but I want a HBH-DS980.
Is there someone who know if it works with Polaris ?
I mean, every function of the headset [playlist, list contacts, etc…].
Thanks for your feedback.
It doesn't work fully with anything, its pants !
and even when it does work fully ... it stops working when it feels like it !
bloody irrational. must be female
I got a new aptX Avantree Saturn Bluetooth receiver for car music ('12 Scion XB) and am having a problem with it conflicting with phone BT in car. Music skips constantly. Previously used Samsung HS3000, and they worked together fine. Anyone know of how to tweak devices so they won't bump into each other?
Thanks!
p.s. Saturn seems excellent, much better than HS3000 IMHO.

Hopefully someone can help me here -- I haven't been able to find an answer to my problem even with several google and forum searches.
A few days ago, my AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy S3 stopped working with wired headsets, but headphones still work. When I plug in a pair of headphones (2 stripes on the miniplug), I get balanced, stereo sound.
However, when I plug in a headset with mic (3 bands on the plug), I get no sound even though the phone acts like it is playing sound. I've tried different audio apps, headphones, and headsets, and the problem stays constant. Each headphone / headset also works on other audio sources.
I am AT&T's version of 4.1.1, kernel version 3.0.31-274808, and do not think any updates have been downloaded recently.
Any ideas what could be causing this issue? I used to have a headset plugged in for most of the day, and miss the remote and phone mic features a lot.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
TLDR: Wired headphones work on GSIII, but wired headsets give no sound. Help!

Did you try using the headset with another phone?

i bought the Phaiser BHS-730 because they seemed to have good reviews on amazon. i've been trying the at the gym a few times now. set up normally with the inline remote and i'm guessing bluetooh on the right music was so choppy. i swapped the tips which swapped the sides for the remote. this helped and works fine while running and normal arm position, but walking with my arm down it gets choppy again. i've searched out and seen lots of discussions that some people have this issue and others have headphones that are fine, but not a lot of details on the headphones that are fine. I've also tried pairing the watch to my jbl charge 3 speaker and within a 10 foot range i haven't had any choppy issues. does anyone know a pair of headphones that don't have the choppy issue?
tried a co-workers samsung circle gear and at work didn't notice any choppy playback. these do not seem ideal for working out and running however.
I had the same issue... I called Moto at apparently with something to do with certain Bluetooth chips on certain headphones... I did some research and read a lot of forums and settled on JBL reflect mini,
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B015...ct+mini+bt&dpPl=1&dpID=41YsKaRWUDL&ref=plSrch
I've had no issues whatsoever running or walking with these headphones paired to my Moto 360 sport.
i tried another co-workers beats powerbeats 2's and they seemed ok. i ended up going with the new powerbeats 3's and they've worked well so far. hopefully this will help others that have the same issue.

Do you have any more detail on what to look for when buying BT headphones? Which BT chips to avoid?
Thanks.

Hello,
I bump this old thread to check if someone has other headphone names less expensive than the names suggested above.
I break headphone often so I don't want spend more than 100 euro for them.
Any name for headphones not disconnecting continuosly during a run session?
HI guys
Hope you all are well. Need some help and or guidence, this clipping is driving me crazy LOL
When paired up to my S21, the headset produces massive clipping and static, it only happens sometimes, but not always. I have also identified, if the headset is powered on while my XBOX controller is on and connected aswell, i cannot use the headset at all (Makes loud crackeling noises) Apart from that, i still have it happening at strange intervals, and cannot pinpoint the issue.
I at a time thought it might be my Galaxy watch 3, which i unpaired for a day or 2 to test. It went well for a few hours and started again?? I also uise a BT keyboard, BT Mouse at different intervals. Tried process of elimination, still there
I also had this with my S10e. So im not sure if its BT devices clashing with each other, or is it the BT versions clashing.
Did anyone else experience this? (I searched the web, but most of the articles are basic things like check Reception, range etc etc)
Thanks for the advice!

Hi! I know only 1 case with this problem: your bluetooth headphones are connected to several devices and do not have the Multipoint function. The conflict may be with Galaxy Watch 3, because Watch 3 has an audio profile in S21, but you wrote that you turned off Watch 3.
Thanks alot. I found the cuplrit. It was my logitec BT Keyboard. It was always on, on the background. And caused interference. Since i switched it off (When not using) I dont have the clipping anymore hehe
