I just got these really cool new headphones. The sound quality is great. The volume is nice and loud and they dont look like Mickey Mouse ears (ala the HT820), The one very BIG issue I have with them is that when I am making a phone calls only the left ear works!
Is there some way to get this thing to play in both ears. This is such a great device but the fact that it only plays in one ear makes it unusable for me as I work in a very loud environment and need it to play in both ears!
Any Ideas?
I just got off of the phone with Motorola. Apparently when the device receives a mono sound like a phone call it only plays the sound in one ear.
What we need is a way to trick the device into thinking that it is getting a stereo sound when making voice calls. Is there a way to do this?
Same problem here (left earphone only telephone calls). I hope that one of the gurus of the forum will come up with a solution. Are you using any of the registry tweaks or patches, and if so which ones? Thanks a lot.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
I am using a stereo bluetooth headset from Sony Ericsson, and It doesn't have your problem, when I click "turn hands-free on", both ear pieces works although it's mono sound.
But I have a question to ask, which media/MP3 player do you use to listen stereo bluetooth? I checked around Windows Media Player menu and it doesn't have a function like "switch to headset". I don't know how to link the audio to my bluetooth stereo headset for listening MP3.
Can anyone help me??
You need to enable Joint Stereo audio instead of Mono. I think you can do this in the most recent LVSW release (in the HTCtweakUI), and it can be done on any phone with a simple registry hack. Just search the forums and wiki for "joint stereo" and you should come up with something.
1. Navigate to "LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings" in the registry.
2. Use Joint Stereo to 0.
This change did not fix the problem. When I try and make a call its makes a LOUD beep in both ears then starts to play from just the left ear.
There has to be a way to make the headset think that it is getting stereo sound during voice calls.
RTFM the manual clearly states that during headset use the left ear is mono
that would because the right ear is the mic.

This makes sense. Even if the mic embedded in the right earphone is a separate unit, sound coming from an adjascent earphone would have sent some feed-back to the mike. If it is the situation then there is no hope for us I guess. In any case, instead of a microphone extending towards my mouth or dangling on a cord I much prefer this configuration. Especially when riding my motorcycle it works great in the helmet.
Hi all,
well Im also a user of the S9 und must say the music sound is fantastic, but the mono call audio is just not good enough... Did anyone come a cross a way to make that stereo too or is there a way to increase the volume ?
Otherwise: does anyone now a better in ear round the neck device that does stereo on calls ?
Generally I very much like the fit of the S9 and that its slim an not bulky round the neck
Greetings

I am currently using Sony Ericsson HBH610 at the moment and not happy with the sound quality.
Whenever I was in the car or moving around, people whom I was calling said that they were hearing my voice choppy.
thanks
Jabra BT8010, I was a bit nervous about the BT headsets but these were recommended to me by the forum. THey sound great and are very versatile with built in phone book and OLED screen.

Oh I have a question though with A2DP, Could you possibly answer the phone in stereo mode using Jabra BT8010? or it would switch automatically into one side mono mode whenever there is a phone call? I prefer Stereo mode for phone calls if possible since it enables me to hear more clearly and comfortably with 2 ears.
I don't think that I would be using BT8010 for music listening since I think my sensaphonics 2X-S aka ACS-T2 much better.
it runs calls through both ear pieces if both are connected

Hi Ade,
I have been reading the manual for BT8010 and it says that it will automatically convert into mono mode when we answer the phone. Are you sure we can enforce the stereo mode for phone calls?
I cna confirm on mine audio is played through both headphones
Have you try JetWare? Did it work to you?

From my perspective:
Ok I bought Jabra BT8010 today. The earphones' sound quality are exceptional compared to my Sony HBH-610. It sounds more open, flat/neutral, bigger soundstage, ..., so it's a lot more comfortable to carry out a conversation for a long period of time. And in Stereo mode. IT'S EXCEPTIONAL. I love the stereo mode, the sound is very open very clear and very relaxing.
Sony Ericsson HBH-610 on the other hand sounds very forward, It's like a slap in your face kinda sound, it's got peak in the treble area. Some people preceive this as better for conversation since you can hear sibilance more but then it could also mean that your ears may easily go fatigue a lot faster, and most likely damaging/bad for your ears as well.
From the person who received my phone calls:
Sony Ericsson sounds much cleaner, clearer, definitely better than the Jabra BT8010. The sound is more refined and fuller. The Jabra sounds boxy, lacking high, and also more digital sounding as if, you can hear cheap compression effects
As any one tray this SE Bluetooth Headset HBH-DS970 A2DP:http://cgi.ebay.com/Sony-Ericsson-S...yZ133233QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
i order one today and i wait to test them with my ADVANTAGE.
HBH-DS970
This is a excellent headset. I have been using it now for 2 weeks and it workd perfectly!! In fact a friend of mine has asked me to order 3 for him and his family.
well i'm glad to read your opinion.
How is the sound quality whan you listen to MP3 files with A2DP?
whan you recive call phone do you get the voice through both headphones in stereo mode or in mono mode?
Thanks.
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.
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

is there hack or any way to make the audio from skype go through front speaker on vogue
Front speaker??Am I missing something,what front speaker?
i think he means the ear piece, i guess right now its going through the speaker phone
headset works
Not sure if this has been covered here or not but here it is on another forum on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3153030&postcount=61
Start tivi, then run skype. All sound comes from the front speaker, not the back. Make sure to turn off tivi when you're done with skype, as ALL sounds will be rerouted to the front speaker, not just voice calls.

Not for me it doesn't it will only go through the speaker and I cannot find anyway to get it to go to my bluetooth headset. Is your headset bluetooth or is it wired?
I've been able to use my Jabra 8040 (mono earpiece, but A2DP-compliant) headset with Skype just fine . . . whenever my connection's decent enough anyway.
hey guys,
I would love to setup a profile for when I am driving my fiancee's car so that when I make or answer a call it automatically makes/answers the call in loud speaker. I have an in-car dvd/gps with bluetooth, so I don't need it for my car.
I have spb phone suite set up for home, my car and work,but there is no option to have it answer with the loud speaker.
ive not tried it but this might be what your looking for

I've used the Oldsap programme and it works OK.
Although I have found that the speaker from the phone is not loud enough to overcome traffic noise.
My current solution works brilliantly.
My car stereo has a tape deck in it, and so i've been able to use an MP3 to cassette adapater( http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-F8V366-APL-Mobile-Cassette-Adapter/dp/B0000AOWVC )
The advantage of this is, the call comes through your cars speakers, but since the phone recognises that a headset without a microphone is plugged in it automatically boosts the microphone to hands free mode.
Hence great volume and you don't have to shout
