Is there any bluetooh headset on the market that can support A2DP (or work as a speaker), but is look like a normal headset, I do not mind it's mono.

CAn any one help please?

I am not entirely sure if this is possible but I want to make my bluetooth headset my headphone as well (instead of plugging in the wired handsfree which I got with my unit). The purpose? mostly to use SKYPE for LD calls - skype does not seem to have an option to send to BT headset. (I also want to listen to music on my BT handsfree but that it another issue - less important)
Any ideas?
You cannot listen sound over BT. Only phone calls can be routed to headset.
this isnt actually true, i managed to get all sound to run over my BT headset on my alpine the other day and was able to listen to mp3s over my jabra 250v but as of yet i cant work out how i did it, thats how i stumbled accross this thread
Hi guys,
Basically i want to have a handsfree bluetooth to talk on the phone that also works as a Wireless Stereo.
Do they exist?
Little help would be appreciated.
yes they do; i'm not sure about other brands but i use an i-tech clip stereo headset that acts as handsfree and wireless headphones. it has 2 earphones; the other can be unplugged when you want to use it simply as handsfree.

May sound like a strange request but i want to use an fm transmitter so i can listen to stuff through my car stereo but also want to be able to use my bluetooth car kit, question is if i plug in the headset and adaptor which i plan to make will this then be seen as a handsfree kit and stop the bluetooth kit working
Anyone know before i buy the bits
Thanks
Chris
Just tried it out, bluetooth car kit works for all telephone calls and all music and device sounds come through the headphones, when the phone rings the music mutes and the call comes through the car kit, very clever until you hang up the call, then the music does not come back through the head phones, you have to unplug them and plug them back in again, very strange

I just bought a headset for my Atom Exec and I can't work it all out, I want to listen to music from the memory card so I have set the bluetooth to Hands Free, Wireless Stereo and headset, all three are ticked. All is working fine but the only problem I have is when the phone rings you can only here it through the stereo headphones which makes sence but I can see this causing problems if I put the headphones down, I will miss calls as I want hear the phone ringing. Is there a way to make the phone ring also threw the speaker on the phone as well while using the headphones?
Unfortunately I don't think so. If you turn the Stereo Headset profile on all sound is routed to the headset. If someone knows how it would be great.
What you can do instead is set the phone to vibra + ring mode so that if you don't have the headset on, at least the phone will still shake.
hi Seal,
which bluetooth headset did you get? i'm asking because i just got the atom (not exec) and can't get the BT to work as a wireless headset - it only works when making calls.
also, you mentioned 'wireless stereo' checkbox, i don't see this option in the atom but it could be an exec feature.
thanks.
Hi, I bought the Plantronics, I use them every day and love them, it is such a great thing to not have wires hanging around.

"I has an Atom", and I also have a mono, ordinary Bluetooth headset (Planex BT-03HS).
Seal: try turning off the Wireless Stereo profile, then getting this program called BlueMusic by Teksoft - it has an option you can uncheck that will allow the ringtone to come through its original source instead, while still routing music through your BT.
Yes, the program can do this even in unlimited trial mode - however, it only puts your music back on the BT band after a call in full-mode. I have no idea if this will work on stereo headphones like yours, but it's worth a shot.
Slamming_Sammy: With BlueMusic I can pipe stuff from TCPMP to bluetooth headset - which supports only handsfree - just fine, whilst still not missing a call. BlueMusic emulates the A2DP protocol so your phone doesn't have to. There's actually a free binary out there called BTAudio (which Bluemusic is based on), but its less stable than Bluemusic when it comes to disconnects and receiving calls.
Oh, and by the way, the Atom does support Wireless Stereo (A2DP). However, you can ONLY see it if your bluetooth headset has the profile as well (mine doesn't by the way). AFAIK only stereo headsets have this; even the newest BT2.0 mono headsets don't.
thanks a lot Ultimate. I was just about to try btaudio which by the way, works great, so I won't try bluemusic yet. so you're saying if my BT headphone is A2DP capable then I wouldn't need to run btaudio to route audio to my headset?
thanks.
Yes, that's what I'm saying.
Bluetooth stereo headsets are expensive, tho, AND the Atom is known to have dodgy A2DP support (except with BT2.0 devices), so you might want to hold out on the purchase.
Hey guys
I know this will sound as a silly question, but is there a way for me to enjoy listening to my music through my bluetooth headset?
Thanks
What do u mean?! HD supports A2DP, so yes technically u should be able to...
how do I do that then ?
thanks for your help
Turn on bluetooth and pair it with your headset. Also, make sure you have beam activated
You have to have a Stereo Bluetooth Headset. Google it if you don't know what one is.
Search for "BT Audio". works on the HD.
use acbtoogglebt
use ACBtoogleBT

works great even if u do not have stereo bluetooth. It sends all speaker sounds to headphone.
Be aware tough that this mode switches off once call is received and BT headset becomes normal so U have to toggle it again. If you are in the middle of watching movie you have to restart the movie programme to get the sound over headset.
But works great. I use it to watch TV serial and podcast while walking my DOG everynight
Blutooth Sterio Headphone
There are many Blutooth head sets which are large. If you want a regular sleek Blutooth handsfree you may try Plantronics Voyager 855. It is a small Blutooth handsfree with an ear stud which can be converted into a blutooth sterio head set by attaching a small chord with ear stud to the other ear. It works well. Steri quality is good.
