how to using the bluetooth handset listen MP3 from Atom

who can share the experience like subject mentioned.

Don't have the Atom myself but tested my BT I-Tech Clip with my mates one and it worked on first attempt.
Just pair the devices as normal and the PDA will recognise it to be a headset.

I use iTech S35 ... works great
I am using the iTech S35 STEREO Bluetooth headset to listen to STEREO MP3 music. I also use it together with TCPMP to watch movies in STEREO. It also operates as handsfree phone.
It works great !
I chose the iTech S35 because it has a 3.5mm female jack so that you can plug in ANY headphone u want to use. The headphones that come with the S35 is abit crappy but who cares - you can use your own !
Most Bluetooth headsets have the headphones built-in so you are stuck with what it comes with but not the S35
if you choose the S38, it even has built in controls for controlling the "play", "next" etc. so the Atom stays in your pocket while you control the player. I haven't tried it but don't see any reason why it should not work.
I am full of praise for the S35 !
For phones I use the Audio Technica "PEAR" necklace phones so my headphones stay tangle free. I think the two makes a good combination.
One note : You won't have radio if u use the S35 or any other bluetooth headset 'cos it needs the headset that comes with the Atom plugged in as the antenna as well. So if u want radio u gotta carry that headset with you.

i got a BlueAnt X3 headset
It can only act as a handsfree... however, it allows me to listen to music when it's connected to my other mobile phone... so the problems seems to be with Atom... can anyone help?

XDA Neo (JAMin ROM) and Plantronics 590A,perfect combination

Just bought Plantronics 590A bluetooth stereo headset, and tried it out with my prophet (XDA Neo with JAMin WWE 2.13 ROM). I would say it is really a perfect combination.
I have tried HT820, and also another one from Creative (I can not remember the name), but for those two, the sound quality is really bad!!!!! Espcially for HT820, you can clearly know that you are wearing a wireless headset, since the sound quality is way much worse than wired headset! I do not understand why so many people are still use HT820, anyway it was really terrible. So, I sold both my HT820 and Creative one on eBay, and started searching for better quality headsets. I found many reviews on Plantronics 590A, and all of them compared the 590A with HT820, and concluded that 590A is way much better than HT820 in terms of sound quality. So, I finally decided to give 590A a try.
It is really a perfect match to my Prophet. The sound quality is superb. You would never notice you are wearing a wireless headset through A2DP. The sound quality is even better than many wired headsets on the market. Anyway, the 590A is the best bluetooth stereo headset I have ever tested. All the buttons worked perfect, forward, and back button worked perfectly. Play and pause worked perfectly, too. When a call comes in, it automatically switched from stereo music mode to handfree mode (during the call, it is still stereo, but the sound quality in handfree mode is not as good as in stereo music mode. But you can hear crystal clear voice in handfree mode from both ear phones). Anyway, everything is perfect! I strongly recommend the 590A.
Also, a universal bluetooth adaptor is included (3.5mm). I used it to listen music from my laptop. It is wonderful. But you know, since I used the 3.5mm adaptor for bluetooth, the forward and back button of the headset is not working. That is normal. I can not blame it. Again, the sound quality is superb, and the signal from the bluetooth adaptor is amazingly strong. I can listen music from downstairs, upstairs, 2 or 3 rooms away without losing any signal and sound quality.
The only problem I found is that after I used the headset to listen music from laptop through the included bluetooth adaptor, if I want to switch to my prophet, I have to turn off the headset and turn it on again, otherwise, the headset will not automatically switch from one device to another device. I am not very sure it is really true, or I did not set it right.

Bluetooth Audio on Cingular 8125

Hi, i was wondering if anyone has a consisce, reliable way to eaisly enable streaming bluetooth audio on an 8125
mine is pretty much bone stock except for spb pocket pc.
Thanks for any help,
Pat

Are you looking for stereo bluetooth sound or just through a mono headset?
Stereo (A2DP) support should be built in, depending on when you purchased the phone, but if you just want to stream music over a bluetooth headset (mono, low quality), check here.

thanks

Mp3 playback thru parrot car kit

with my old n95 8gb phone i could play my mp3 files on it in the car and as it was connected to my parrott car kit i could hear it thru the cars speakers -
but i cant do it with the hero - yes the hero works perfectly with the car kit - but when you go inot the music player on it - the music only comes out fo the phone -
has anyone any ideas ?

What parrot car kit have you got? The sound from the MP3 links using A2DP BT profile (designed for highish quality stereo output) and only the latest Parrots use that (my CK3000 does not) All the others only support handsfree BT profile which is mono and poor quality. So it will not pick up the music from the Hero.

To elaborate, *some* phones will play music through the hands-free profile. iirc, I could do it on my HTC Vogue with WinMo.

You are right but I have never managed to get my Hero to. If anyone has I would be interested in hearing how. Trouble is it will be mono lo-fi quality.
At least the sat nav voices uses handsfree - on my previous WM mobile the TT voices came through A2DP and I had to get an app to change it
Correction the sat nav voices do not use handsfree profile on the Hero - I think they use A2DP and so my Parrot is unable to pick them up. However they are loud enough to hear on the phone's loudspeaker.

[Q] music through my jawbone bt earpiece?

is it possible on the vibrant to stream music to my jawbone bt earpiece ? i used to do it on my touch pro 2. but with android im not sure ? help me out guys please

Yes, it's possible (though it may depend on what model Jawbone you have). Make sure your Jawbone is updated with H2DP and your phone should be able to recognize that the headset can be headphones as well. Check out the Jawbone website for more info.

If his jawbone is like my old one ( now use a Plantronics Pro), it didn't support Stereo (H2DP)
One of things I plan on looking into the Android source for is why someone hasn't come out with a "Mixer" app to route Media out the BT Headset profile. I'm sure there's a technical reason.
I've never seen a phone send music out to a BT headset... I don't understand why that is, it does if you use a wired headphone.
Things like podcasts should be fine in a mono headset. Even music would be better than nothing.

A2DP?
The new jawbone hero has an update that supports A2DP. Music sounds terrible through it tho, I even streamed NPR's car talk through it and it was scratchy. For some reason too, the phone prefers streaming over BT rather than through the audio jack when it's plugged in. Turned off the audio profile for the headset.
