Motorola DC800 + TyTN = cool - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Picked up one of these at Compusa, it's a small Bluetooth streamer you can stream TO or FROM. I can now stream my TyTN to my stereo during the day, and at night I stream the TV audio to a pair of BT headphones so I don't disturb anyone.
Audio is pretty damn good.

stereo bluetooth headset

has anybody a stereo bluetooth headset for the xda mini s? if yes i am looking for a headset:
1) wireless
2) hold on my ears when i make sport etc
ht820 from motorola maybe? they are flip back.
can we listen mp3 on normal bluetooth head-set through windows media player ??
bluetooth headset
yes i could google...
but my question is:
- have anyone experience in quality
- could we hear mp3 with bluetooth
i will buy one but i want to know if the headset is good or not
I have itech Blueband stereo headset ... it holds perfectly (i'm using it at running) .... and have by my opinion very good speakes (good basses and good sound) ...
I have Motorola HT-820. I'm tested sound quality via Motorola BT-transmitter which was be connected to AV-receiver Pioneer.
Sound - bad quality, low volume level.
Headphones ergonomic - ugly...
HT-820 not work with my Wizard because last K-JAM ROM (K-JAM_RUSSIAN_2160904_21609105_20710_ship.exe) still not support BT-stereo profile

Motorola Bluetooth® Home Stereo Adapter DC800

Has anyone bought this?
I wonder if this will stream all audio from the Imate Jam through it to the headset (mono & stereo headsets), cutting audio streaming when a call comes in.
i picked one up from CompUSA for $40 it works, but has the same issues as the HT820 headphones.

Initial A2DP findings

Using the M3100 with the itech clip S35 Headset
firstly i've been using the fit4cat tweaker which has an A2DP quality improvememt tweak - unfortunately the tweak makes the quality worse so i've tuned it off and the music quality is not too bad when playing through my car stereo. However, I need to try some decent headphnes with the unit because the ones supplied sound very tinny!
Secondly, when you first pair the device, media player plays through the headset ok. If you then go out of range, when you return the headset re-pairs ok for the phone but the media player doesn't and it plays through the loudspeaker. You have to enter BT settings and recheck the stereo music option to have the sound through the headset again. Anybody getting this with the same or other headsets?
Thirdly, I have the S35 outputting through my car stereo. When people are calling me they can hear an echo (of themselves speaking as the sound comes out through the car speakers). There is some sort of delay i suppose but this is very annoying. I'm not sure why its happening because when I tried the headset using my Sony Ericsson W800i there was no such echo!
therfore, is the echo problem an A2DP thing (as the w800i does not support it and this works ok) or is it a m3100 thing? To test this I could turn off A2DP and ry the headset again - is this possible?
any suggestions appreciated
I have the Jabra BT620s headphones and I have indentical problems.
After install all works well but as soon as you disconnect media player just plays via the phone speaker
at least you guys get it to work once. WMP never plays through my iPAQ bluetooth headset. AVRCP controls work fine though. TCPMP plays fine through the bluetooth headset as long as I pair it up before I execute TCPMP. This is exactly how it worked with my 8125.
The WMP issue is very strange and is likely yet another example of the lack of QA testing in the A2DP portion of the TyTN's implementation. I would expect that these issues will all be fixed in a subsequent TyTN ROM update.
I'm getting on ok with this
quality is pretty good both using the headset with my own sony ear buds. Vast improvement over the itech supplied ear buds.
A2DP - no skipping during normal playback and it works well - quality is not an issue through the car stereo either - not bad at all . I've even been listening to music over A2DP and running sat nav using a GPS BT receiver. A slight pause in music when GPS connects but then all runs well.
My only 2 gripes are:-
1. When you disconnect or go out of range of the headset, it reconnect perfectly with the phone application. This isn't the case with the wireless stereo. I have to enter BT settings, uncheck the wireless stereo setting, save then recheck the setting before it reconnects. Slightly annoying but accesptable (for now)
2. the echo using the headset through my car stereo. People calling me can hear themselves again (about a 0.5 second delay) through the car speakers! Just to repeat my earlier post, this does not happen with my W800i. not sure if its an A2DP problem or something else.
Similarly here, I don't seem to be able to make A2DP (and the handsfree profile, for that matter) work.
Using HTC and an Itech clip, I am able to pair the "wireless stereo" and then play music for some 10 seconds on the GS Player, after which the Wireless Stereo symbol disappears from the top bar and the connection is interrupted. I actually believe that the Itech clip is 'shut off', as I have to turn it on again.
When I try to reconnect the headset, it just won't work and the whole machine is slowed down. Only a soft reset helps.
I hope this is a ROM problem (and not mine) and it'll be fixed soon...
WMP and the Itech clip work fine for me, with the current German ROM.
a2dp issues w/th Hermes
With the CHT9000 WWE rom I had the wireless stereo drop off after about 1 minute, then I would have to reconnect. I flashed to the other dopod WWE ROM (latest) and the problem is gone....sound is comparable to my prophet. Reg tweaks suggested in other forums definetely make the sound quality worse for either ROM version. I think further updated ROM's will improve A2DP reliability (or someone may find a reg hack)...as with the prophet A2DP it just takes time.
Hi guys, I've got the vario ii and the Sony Ericsson HBH-610.
I can add the headset fine and make calls through it, but I don't know how to get the music in wmp to play through it.
If anyone has a few mins spare and could explain it for me I would be really grateful
Headsets..HBH 610...
With my CHT 9000 I use an OMIZ 5660...works great for calls and wireless stereo. I don't have any other headset to compare it to (since I only have used this brand)....I believe that if your "options" do not list wireless stereo then you can't use the A2DP function on your device, at least as it is designed to be used.
I'm not aware of a one-piece headset that supports A2DP that is available (all should have either 2 headphones or two wired ear plugs)..
THE ONLY WAY, I FIND :
I have a 590A Plantronics Bluetooth HeadSet
You must refresh Services of your iTech or your Plantronics !
Go Parameters, Bluetooth, Select your Headset, Refresh.
Then reselect services and Save !
Each time you lost the link (Bluetooth turn off or ...) you will have to Refresh,reselect and Save !
I am searching for a Solve but not find another !
I forget something else !
It is the same thing with my Bluetooth GPS (GNS).
I have a spv m3100 and jabra bt620. They both work like a dream most of the time apart from having to go into bluetooth settings each time I want to connect to the stereo headset option.
I have noticed that when in my garden or at home (a quiet environment probably) that I have excellent streaming but when I am walking around, particularly in built up areas like shopping centres, high streets, tube trains, that there is some loss in the streaming which would seem to point towards some kind of interference.
Why the wireless stereo is set as mono as standard I can't understand. I'm sure its to do with improving the streaming quality, but they are supposed to be STEREO!!! Also I set the quality to 58 instead of 48 and there was a definite loss in streaming quality so I switched back to 48.
The AVRCP also works brilliantly in WMP.
The wireless connection also plays havoc with the bluetooth stereo connection with the buffering of stereo constantly dropping. Also noticed that AVRCP wont work with TCPMP, but as there seems to be some major issues with TCPMP and the Tytn I have uninstalled it for the time being until the guys at CorePacket come up with a fix

So far A2DP has worked fine for me with my Nokia HS-12W. I have applied some registry settings and optimised my SD card and so far it has played with hardly a skip. Definitely better than my previous BA with WM5.

This is the biggest problem for me with my M3100 at the moment. I'm guessing it will only be fixed by an updated\alternative ROM(?!), any ROM's out there I could try that might get round this problem??
Thanks

This is probably headset dependent because with my Nokia HS-12W if i need to reconnect i just press the Audio button and it re-establishes the A2DP connection. No going to BT settings at all.
Interesting, can you just confirm what you mean by the Audio button. Is that just hitting 'Play' in WMP?
Thanks
No, the Nokia has a Music key (not Audio, my mistake) which switches from A2DP to the built-in radio. So if i have lost the BT connection pushing the Music key to select the Audio player will re-establish the connection and music is streamed to the headset. You will see the A2DP icon on the today screen when it has connected and get the chime in the headset.
Ok, thanks for that.
Just one last point, if the connection is lost while music is streaming, does the audio switch to the phone speaker instead??
My problem is I'll be listening to music on the subway then or some reason I'll loose the connection (interferance, low battery...whatever) and immediately music starts coming out the speaker, much to my embarrassment!
Thanks again!

Question about BT headset

Hi,
I have never owned a BT headset before, so I have some questions if you are willing to help me.
If I read some specifications (for example from Jabra BT8010), a BT headset could have 2 modes :
- Phone mode (mono)
- Music mode (stereo)
What is exactly the music mode? Does it mean that it controls Windows Media Player?
Or it has its own media player?
How if I want to play VIDEO (using Tcpmp for example), can I use the Music mode?
Mostly I will use the BT to watch movie and play games ....
PS: Do you use Jabra BT8010 with Kaiser? How is it?
Thanks,
since i know how frustrating it can be not to get an answer..maybe you prefer a soso answer to no answer...;-):
i used to have a stereo headset nokia hs-12 or so...but this is already some time ago...
so the way it basically works: upon pairing it will say that it supports music and phone.
depending on the layout of the headset (and the achieved compatibility with the handheld device) you will be able to control some to most features of the media players in the device. like play, pause vol up vol down, FF, RWD.. my headset worked well with windows media player, also with resco radio..tcpmp i did not have at that time yet.
hope this gives you an idea.
Andy
I think the difference is that the Phone Mode or Mono mode means that there is only ONE audio channel... suitable for making and receiving calls while the Music mode or Stereo mode means that it has TWO channels which is suitable for headphones because they have to channels.
Phone Mode BT devices can play your music but only out of one channel and in all cases Phone Mode BT devices only have one ear plug.
Music Mode BT devices can play your music or any sound for that matter out of both channels which is why they are in headphone form with two ear plugs.
MONO=1
STEREO=2
This is my take on this but please correct me if I am wrong as I would too like to get to the bottom of this.
actually that is not correct.
the so called A2DP profile is AFAIK only supported by stereo BT headsets/headphones. a mono headset will NOT get any audio sound under normal circumstances. However one can tweak the registry -and there is also software that does it - in order to direct the audio output to the headset.the price for this being, that as long as this function is active, voice dialling from the headset will not work, since this is the function that is being used to switch the audio gate.
Now, in the case of the 8010 this should be different, since it is basically a stereo headset with a detachable 2nd earpice. this one should therefore always work in A2DP mode and therefore enable audio throughput without any further tweaks.
I just picked up a BT8010 yesterday -- my local Fry's had them half-price. Stereo performance is pretty good, but there's a bit of skipping (i.e. momentary dropouts of the audio). There's a firmware update available from Jabra -- that may help.
Haven't had the chance to use the BT8010 as a phone headset yet, so I can't address that.

[Q] Bluetooth Stereo and Video

I have paired my Motorola Stereo Bluetooth headset to my HTC Surround. Music plays fine but when I play a video the sound comes from the phones speakers. I have not found a way to fix this and get video sound to come through my Bluetooth headset.
One note is that when I plug in a wired headset, both video and music play through the wired headset. This issue only seems to be with Bluetooth Stereo.
Anyone else seen this or have a fix?
I've had the same issue with my bluetooth headset.
