wired headset

Is there a wired over the head headset with a 3.5mm jack that will work with the universal?

Or an adapter that will allow me to use a 2.5mm headset?

I am not sure how does this work...
But give it a try http://pc-mobile.net/pxdaa.htm

if you're looking for just stereo headphones (for music) you can try sony's sports earphones -

I think I answered my own question. Looks like the ppctechs item will convert.

Can anyone recomend a replacement for the wired headset?
(To use for music and calls)
Mine have suddenly gone all mono on me :-(

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?

Bluetooth for music and phone?

Hello, i'm new to having BT and i just got my tilt yesterday. One thing i need to do is get a BT headset, but i'm having trouble finding out if a BT headset will transfer any audio to the unit instead of phone only audio.
I want something that will let me listen to my music or video, and it will need to make some sort of indication that a call is coming in and let me take the call and then go back to the music when the call is done.
I don't want something that has some HUGE boom mike that resembles the head gear i have to wear for work.
I've heard a lot of good things about the Jawbone's noise canceling and sound quality, so i'm leaning towards that. I've looked in many places but haven't heard if the Jawbone does this.
I'm not concerned about stereo audio at all. As long as all the sound goes to the headset and plays in my ear i'm happy. Stereo is completely not necessary cause i'm deaf in my right ear and couldn't hear it even if i wanted to.
I think the Jabra BT8040 does this but is the noise canceling as good as the jawbone?
thanks in advance
Snow
edit: Maybe what i'm asking is, "Does the Jawbone play music and do calls?" I dunno, i'm confused lol

Any BT ear piece like Jawbone can have all sounds diverted to it by using a small free app called BTaudiotoggle. Do a search for BTaudio. It works great.
If you are deaf in one ear, the Jawbone is fine, the BlueAnt Z9 is smaller, cheaper, and Louder than the Jawbone. I have both and they are two of the best earpieces.

Thanks! That was just the information i was looking for.

the jabra bt 3030 is good as well,nice bright blue flashes when calls come in,and can take any ear gear with 3.5 mm plug,mono or stereo.

Audio/Music Over Bluetooth Headset - not just calls

Ok everyone...I have my handsfree bluetooth headset working great for calls and can hear call audio just fine, but I want to be able to listen to any audio that comes out of my xv8600 so is there a cab file that mods the audio to send over bluetooth? I did a forum search and found nothing on the subject.
THANKS!!
p.s. - the headset is the motorola h700 model

This is one I have used..use...Not a cab..just drop in windows\start menu\programs and it will show up in the programs folder...sure there are many newer versions that would be cab style.

thanks. that did the trick, but wow...audio quality is terrible. I didnt notice how bad it was before since it was just voice audio...
anyone know a high quality BT headset? like as good as regular earbud headphones at least?
-connor

thanks!!

BUMP - anyone? with regards to my last post - trying to find a highquality audio bt headset?
this motorola one I have sound slike 11KHz, and not the full 44KHz quality, sounds very muted and distant, like typical phone quality when I try to listen to music on it...anyone?
It's definitely a hardware issue, so since I just bought this motorola one, I'd like to take it back for a better one, so please post ASAP if you know of a full44khz quality BT headset/earbud
Thanks!!

Heard "jawbones" are nice...and expensive...for that kinda money I would just purchase bluetooth stereo headphones..some come with built-in mics

the whole point is to minimize wghile driving but still get good audio....besides wearing stereo headphones while driving is illegal since it inhibits your abaility to hear sirens, etc...had a friend who got a ticket for listening to his ipod with headphones while driving. the cop told him he could hook it up to his car stereo, but not have headphones directly in his ear. bluetooth earbuds are still legal, thats why i want a stereo quality earbud (albeit on channel) but in 44khz so i can take calls and listen to
hq music

[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.
