Any ideas what could be causing this or more importantly how to fix it?? Thanks! the headset is a aliph jawbone
Did you try using a different headset? From my experiences, even the same brand of headsets can have different voice quality depending on the model.
it is defiantly not the headset. This brand is the BEST ONE on the market. I just reinstalled my phone and have the same problem but i refuse to believe it is the headset. I am going to try it on a different phone tonight.
it could be the jawbone.. and no its not the BEST ONE on the market as u put it.. try another BT and see if u hear the sound.. if u dont then guess what its your BEST ONE jawbone.. but if u do hear the sound its your bluetooth so try updating the radio
i tried the jawbone with another phone and it works on that. So it IS the wizard. And yes it is the best, unless you happen to have a recommendation for another one because it looks like i might be in the market for a new one. Any idea what i could update my radio to? I just updated to molski.biz's newest rom so i have
ROM: 3.3.0.0
IPL: not included
SPL: not included
Radio: 1.19.11
AKU: AKU3.3
i really want to get this thing going this headset is immaculate.
okay i updated the radio rom to 2.69 and it is STILL happening. I have found one other report of this happening with a wizard on the web somewhere and there was no solution on there. Is it my wizard? Other bluetooth things work fine (my GPS works perfectly) And once connected This one works gine also. it is just this initial loud buzzing noise.
It doesn't even happen if i pick it up form the phone then there is noise.
it only seems to happen when i hit the "call accept" button on the side of my bluetooth headset.
i remember my jabra 250v not working w/ my samsung t809 but other ear peices would.. however, my buddies jawbone works with my 8525.. i recommend taking the ear peice to cingular store and have them try to pair it with one of thier phones.. either a 8125 or 8525 or even 3125 and see if it works without any issues..
i think i am going to do that on friday. i have like another 20days before i have to return it. Thank you for your help. This is so lame i really REALLY love the headset :-/
I use a Motorola Handsfree BT kit in my car and with my 8125 callers hear the same thing. It's not as loud if I hit the answer button on my phone vs. the Motorola remote answer button.
It was a lot worst before I flashed my phone with WM6. Seems better now.
My theory is that it's feedback from the phone's mic with my set but if you are using a headset that wouldn't be the case.
My callers will have to put up with it.
Scott
sounds like the exact same problem
so lame. i wonder if it is hardware defect.
I have an MDA with a jawbone as well and my callers say they hear the same loud buzz!
Okay so it is probably a problem with the phone it self, i bet it is how sensitive the mic is. The Jawbone and it's very sensitive mic and a bluetooth car one that also probably has a very sensitive mic both have the issue. I wonder if theres any solution to this.
Try turning off the vibrate option on the phone- that solved this exact same problem for me...
can anyone verify that? i stupidly returned my jawbone yesterday before i saw it cause i had given up hope but i'd gladly by a new one if that was true =) (headset > vibration imo) Thanks!
I have a Plantronics 640 and disabling vibrate solves the problem for me.
So. Lame. Oh well. looks like i need to rebuy my headset. Doh. Thanks all for your input. Someone should add htis to a wiki/faq as it is a very cruddy problem.

Whenever I use my bluetooth headset (Motorola HS850) I can hear the person on the other end just fine but they cannot hear me unless I literally SCREAM. Since that's obviously not a decent workaround I've taken to not using my headset. I miss it and want to use it again.
I've searched the forums and read through this thread completely. I cannot find a single answer that everyone agrees upon.
Can someone please tell me how to increase the volume of the mic of my headset?
I'm runnning Mr Clean's 2.3 ROM (non-UK version).
I have the same problem with all 3 my BT headsets, my bluetrek G2, my i-tech stereo headset and my Sony Ericson BT Car Kit.
What is worse: even when using the the wizard as a normal phone people complain they can't hear me and I also have difficulty in hearing them. I am on the same rom as you.
Without the headset everthing's fine. I hear them, they hear me, no problems at all. Add the headset and the problems begin.

try to increase value of HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME registry key. it worked for me.
Thanks, that was the key that looked most promising in the thread I refered to in the OP.
I have in fact already tried changing that from 13 to DD but to no avail. What did you change it to?

i have the same problem.. i jsut bought a Jabra JX10 after having a Moto BT850 and there's no volume for the BT headset.. highly annoying becuase noone can hear me.. i'm going to try the registry setting for the headset, but instead of DD i'm trying CC which worked wonders for using the regular mic.. we'll see
Hi guys
Did either of you get anywhere with this? My O2 Xda Mini S also has this issue. Geesh you'd think they'd test these things before releasing products!
I've tried setting the following to FF & CC under *all* 4 of the AUDIOGAIN folders:
EARPHONE_UPLINK_VOLUME
HEADSET_UPLINK_VOLUME
RECEIVE_UPLINK_VOLUME
I then rebooted, and things are no different. It's weird though because if you take off the Bluetooth (I use the Jabra BT500) and talk directly into the Mic, it sounds perfect - just not when worn on the ear! I thought my old BT200 was faulty due to this, which is why I wrongly bought a new one :roll: Thanks O2/HTC!
Come on guys, let's get this sorted for everyone. Who knows something and isn't telling?

I wish I did. Sadly I've given up and no longer use my BT headset. I miss it like crazy but like you, reached a dead end. If someone has a solution please, please share.
Looks like nobody is able to help us with this.
Is yours an O2 Xda Mini S?
If so have you reported it to O2 technical as I have?
What Bluetooth(s) have you tried?
I started this thread to identify working Bluetooth headsets, but so far only one reply. Maybe it's a brand-by-brand issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=330649#330649
O2 suggested replacing the phone against my wishes (as others have reported the volume issues and reg hacks). I will report back if I still have the problem with the replacement.
have you guys compared roms? I noticed two people were using the same rom? If everyone with this issue is using the same rom, then maybe that could be the underlying issue...? I'm using the Cingular 2.25 rom and never had this problem.
I was using O2 v2.21.4.101
ROM
I'm using Mr. Clean's 2.24a ROM and love it. I downloaded the ROM on the advice of a friend who uses the same ROM and successfully uses a BlueTooth headset so I'm reasonably confident that it's not the ROM.
re help
well I'm using a wizard with the cingular cf2 multi installer. the wizard is an imate kjam and hs850. after reading this thread u might want to try the settings for the mic agc. enable it and see. my problem is when ppl talk its low. I have to press the headset against my ear so I can hear them. as well as them hearing me. so we all in the boat. I will try the enable mic agc and report back.
cheerz
agc?
again
AGC? Anyone? Bueller?
AGC = Microphone Auto Gain Control.
It should be in the Settings under the System tab if your rom has it. Basically this only works with the built-in mic though and not wireless headsets.
No AGC doesn't help, but I suspect this is some issue to do with the level at which the Wizard uses echo cancellation. I think it is expecting a louder voice through the Bluetooth and as it doesn't hear a voice above the correct level, it barely transmits the audio.
I use the Jabra BT500 and if I take it off my ear and talk normally into the mic hole, callers can hear me really really well. It's just in the 'on-ear' position that it doesn't work.
*Update* I have received a replaced Xda Mini S, and tried it with its original v1.x ROM and the new v2.x ROM. Both have the same problem. So, I have tried:
Different Jabra headset
Different Xda Mini S
Different ROM
Changing all the registry settings as per the other thread
...all in different combinations
I therefore suspect it may simply be that the Wizard is incompatible with Jabra bluetooth headsets.

Motorola HS850. I used to have a Motorola phone and a Pa1m0ne Tungsten T3 but decided that I'd rather carry a single device. The HS850 worked wonderfully with the Motorola phone and I really miss having a BT headset.
I know this has been covered a bit but I have a quick question. MS is saying you need to have AKU 3.2 to get VC to announce caller's over your BT Headset. Has anyone found a simple way to make this work on an earlier ROM. Lately I've been running mostly Molski's ROM, but I dabbled in Faria's 3.2. I swore I had BT working totally with a 2.26 ROM, but am I on crack?
I liked Faria's 3.2 but I was missing too many calls. Is there any way to upgrade just teh BT in an older ROM to make this work. (I'm sure my inexperience shows in this question. If its impossible to do, just say the word and I'll patiently wait for a new 3.2 or 3.5 ROM or just forget about this)
I have two answers to your question.
The first is use the A2DP hack found in this forum and get a stereo bluetooth headset. The iTech Clip R35 or S35 both come with the two headphones; one with only one earbud, so you aren't covering both your ears. When you have a stereo bluetooth headset, all sound, including the calls from MS Voice Command are redirected to your headset.
The second is use the program found here:
http://www.pdaphonehome.com/forums/...luetooth-headset.html?perpage=20&pagenumber=1
It basically redirects all sound to bluetooth (probably a cheaper and easier fix); I haven't tried it yet, but it seems like it might be the solution you are looking for.
I also liked having the feature of calls announced through bluetooth, but it never did seem to work. I have been meaning to download the program from the site, but just haven't gotten chance. If you try it, let me know if it works.
Thanks.
I wonder how hard it would be to get that little program to run automatically when connected to a head set
yeah theres nothign cooler than wearing a stereo headset while driving. Thanks but no thanks.
I've used BT audio with v1.5, and it wasnt for me. i still use it to listen to podcasts via my headset on occasion though.
The nice thing about 1.6 when it was working (mist have been with Faria's ROM) was that I didn't hear my normal phone ringtone through the headset. It rang like normal through my headset, but it would announce the callers name. Its a cool feature.
edit: I must have been wrong. It does divert the ringtone through your headset as well. This gives me hope that I can work somethign out using BTAudio.
Yeah it is a cool feature. You can go to the notification settings in voice command (Settings -> Personal -> Voice Command) and change it so that notifications are done when bluetooth is available (the second radio button). If the notifications cannot sound through your headset, they will come from the phone speaker so you will still be able to hear who is calling without looking at your phone. Doesn't really help if your phone is in your pocket or if you can't hear it, but I guess its the next best alternative.
I have a cooked T-mobile 2.26 ROM and use MS VC 1.6 over my BT205 no problems. I was previously using the original O2 rom and has it working on that too so both an AKU2.0 and an AKU2.3 work fine. To install try this:
remove VC if installed
remove headset pairing
soft reset
create headset pair and leave it switched on
install vc1.6
soft reset
add path string to HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\
i.e. \Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe
soft reset
then try the button on the headset a few times
Riptos
I'm not having trouble using BT with VC. I want the Incoming call announcements to come over BT.
I installed Farias 3.2 and it worked, but I decided its not a huge deal. I'll try playing around looking at some of teh links here and see if I can't work somethign out. Thanks everyone.
I would also love for voice command 1.6 to announce incoming calls to my bluetooth headset. Interestingly, low battery announcements come through the bluetooth headset, but not incoming calls. Hmmm. Any suggestions/luck getting this to work?

Just wanted to let everyone know I tried it out today and it works as expected. Phone audio gets redirected to BT headset on incoming calls.
but does the ringer get re-directed also? cuz if so thats DAMN ANNOYING!
Well I dont mean to sound condescending to a "senior member" cuz im just a junior but did it cross your mind to select "none" as your ringer? Oh, Btw everyone, your welcome for my fantastic little file
What exactly does the file do???
I had troubles with VC 1.6 at first, but now it seems to work OK. Maybe I accidentally followed Riptos's instructions. Don't know.
Also BTAudio is working to redirect audio when I want that to happen, since VC now closes the audio after it finishes.
The only remaining minor glitch is that after giving a dial command, the little simulated dialing noise comes over the phone speaker not the headphone. So if the phone isn't right by, I don't always know whether it has dialed or not.
Any suggestions?
I tried the CallerID program. It works just as described. The only thing is that is takes up ~443.48 KB at startup. I just installed it so I don't know if it increases after a while.
I have a question. If I understand everything correctly, with a AKU 3.2 ROM this CallerID program isn't necessary if I want to get Incoming Call Announcements over Bluetooth. Right??
Has anyone gotten VC 1.6 to announce incoming calls over a STEREO Bluetooth headset? Seems like the discussions have only been for a hands free device. Anyone?
I don't have a 3.XX ROM and Voice Command notifications work on my stereo bluetooth headset without the program because I think wtih stereo bluetooth, all sound is redirected to the headset. I didn't do anything or change any settings, it just worked. I obviously have the A2DP hack installed, but that's it.
Greetings,
I have reviewed the Bluetooth vs. AT&T Tilt vs. Microsoft Voice threads, and cannot find a specific answer, so I am going to try to ask a narrow question here ...
... does anyone who has (i) AT&T Tilt with (ii) the AT&T ROMs, (iii) Microsoft Voice, and (iv) a Bluetooth Headset have all 4 working perfectly together? I need to buy a bluetooth headset, and the forums are littered with problems with Voice announcing, or problems answering the phone thru the headset, etc.
That's why I am just hoping to hear from someone who has all 4 of these things ... that work together. Any recommendations for the bluetooth headset are appreciated.
Thanks
My Tilt worked great with the stock ROM, MSVC 1.6.17913 and my BlueAnt Z9 worked flawlessly including announcing calls over BT.
Thank you!
I will look into the BlueAnt Z9. Thank you so very much for responding.
Of course ... if anyone else has the combination of stock tilt/voice/bluetooth, please let me/us know what other adapters might also work.
I did not have any issues with the Motorola H700 and MSVC 1.6.17913 on my Tilt.
H700
Andre - I recall seeing some mention of the H700 on other threads. Can you (please) confirm that you can answer the phone thru the bluetooth, and that call announce works?

I keep my unit on vibrate and ring and this is the way I tested it. I first placed a call using my office phone to my mobile handset in the "vibrate only" and "vibrate and ring" modes. When my mobile handset was on vibrate the notification came through to my headset with audible tones and my mobile vibrated, but no voice announce from MSVC was heard. When I switched the handset to normal vibrate and ring mode (assume this works on ring w/o vibrate as well) MSVC announced the caller through the headset and nothing audible was heard through the handset. I would say this headset is 100% compatible with the Tilt and MSVC.
Bought the Z9
My Z9 arrived today, and it does answer the phone, engage in voice command, etc.
Pretty nifty (but expensive) bluetooth.
Thanks!
Glad you like it. I hope you give us a nice reveiw after you play with it for a while. I am contemplating moving up because I have had this same type of headset for years now HS810, HS820, HS850, and the H700.
I've got AT&T Tilt, Stock ROM, MS Voice Command 1.6.17913 and Samsung WEP200 all working together.
Also, in MS Voice Command, there are options to select the source the phone calls are made from.
Go to "Start" > "Settings" > "Voice Command"
Click. "Notifications" button and the options that come up are...
-Announce notifications using Bluetooth hands free only
-Announce notifications using Bluetooth hands free if available
-Announce notifications through device speaker or wired headset only.

i still cant get it all to work on my tilt like my 8125...8126 was the bomb with vc. tilt is so nice but not with vc
I tried out a plantronics 665 the seemed to work well, but I didn't care that much for the headset. Returned it and got a nxZen nx9000, and it doesn't seem to work with voice command. Not sure why one works and not the other. Anyone care to speculate, or state with authority, why the 2nd headset doesn't work? Thanks.
Anybody knows how Logitech Mobile Pro Headset works with this combo?
Thanks

Is the Jawbone working with all this? I broke my last Jawbone, but would definatele get another, assuming it would work.
My Jawbone works with my Tilt with the stock ROM. Make sure you install VC before you pair your phone with the headset. If you already paired, delete the pairing and re-pair after the install.
Thank you much.
Now I've got another issue, somebody said "BLUEant" and I saw went looking... I like Blue
Trying to decide between the Z9 or another Jawbone. Comparitively they're about the same with the Z9 being the smaller and more "attractive" of the two, and it also costs alot less. Not to mention it's firmware can be update.
But the big plus for me is that it's BT 2.0 BT 2.0 + Firmware upgradeability make it a serious contender in my book. The Jawbone is in it's prime... whereas the Z9 could get better.
Can't decide at the moment...
I also have the Tilt and Jawbone working together but does anyone know if it is possible to issue the voice commands via the headset. I can only talk into the phone to make it dial a name and then the call is directed to the bluetooth headset.
has anyone got this to work all through the headset.
I couldn't imagine it not being possible... I managed to use the Jawbone with the RAZR V3 in or to use voice dialing and it worked decently.
Jawbone and voice dial
Have had a Jawbone paired with my tilt since I bought it. Works perfectly except calls are not announced through the bluetooth, but important e-mail subjects are read through the headset when they arrive.
The Jawbone is sometimes awkward because it gets loose on your ear/cheek if you move your head alot and then sounds like your talking through a long tube.
Thinking about trying blueant, but haven't heard any glowing reports yet.

There are plenty of fantastic reviews for the BlueAnt Z9. It seems to me to be just the same as when I was researching the Jawbone. You'll either love it, or you'll hate it.
The big plus to me with the BlueAnt is that it's warranty is fantastic (2 years compared to the Jawbone's very specific 1 year warranty), it's BlueTooth 2.0 Stereo (should result in better sound quality as I plan to use my Kaiser as my MP3 player as well), and the big plus for me is that its firmware can be updated. Thanks to the firmware, the Z9's limitations are moreso a limit of it's firmware than it's hardware, whereas the Jawbone is fixed.
With that said, I loved my Jawbone... and I'll still be using my current one while it's still functioning (it's falling apart... Jawbones aren't very well built I'll say that) and comparing it to my Z9 when it gets here.

Hi URPREY - I have the same setup (with the official ATT ROM update 1.62.502.0) working, but instead of announcing the callerid info, I'm hearing "please answer or not at home" through my Blueant Z9 via my Tilt. Any ideas?
I am fairly new to the using the X7500.
Does anyone have any suggestions on which BT headset works best with this unit?
I would really like vibrate and caller ID type of feature since I would like to just leave my X7500 in it's case while I take the phone calls.
I also use Bluetooth headset for listening to music pretty extensively which would be different than a phone BT headset. I would hope that I could use both bluetooth devices with the x7500 at the same time.
Ok...what are your favorite BT phone headsets with vibrate?
Thankyou!
Most people around here have gone with the Jabra BT8010.
thomasz said:
It really depends on how much you want to spend on your bluetooth headset. Also how easy are you to be satisfied?
I would recommend the Aliph Jawbone 2 bluetooth headset. It has this "noise assasin" technology where it eliminates outside noise during your calls. So your voice and incoming calls are extra crispy. But this bluetooth ranges from $100+.
Here's a youtube video on it:

Jawbone 2 does not have vibrate. Plus I spent all that money on it and found: (a) not comfortable to wear, (b) poor performance in staying connected, (c) people complained about quality. I'm not sure what it is about me, since others seem to love it. But for me, it was a tremendous waste of money. I moved on to the Sony-Ericsson which has been much better.
Jabra BT8010 did work well for me. But it's just so huge...
Another vibrating option is the BlueAnt V12. Which is a good value for the money. Mine broke and I wish I had just bought a replacement for it.
Final comment -- if you got the dough, look into the Sony-Ericsoon MBW-150 watch which vibrates and displays messages of all kinds. Then you don't need your headset to vibrate.
there is nothing smaller and more confortable than the Jabra BT8010
it's simply the best headset for any device
I appreciate the suggestions...sounds like Jabra BT8010 would be one to check out. I currently have a Motorola HS850 but people are telling me they hear an echo and it is driving them crazy.
Another question.....I am having issue with music playing thru BT headset receiver which is separate from my phone headset when my phone headset is also active with the HTC 7500 (waiting for a call). The music starts dropping some and becomes inconsistent. Thus, 2 bluetooth devices are active at the same time even though really...it is only the music BT player that is being used. Seems like my best bet is to leave BT phone headset off until I get a call and then turn it on. Anyone have any advice for me if 2 BT headsets active is a problem for music or other recommendations on how to handle this situation. Thanks!
Have you tried upgrading your radio ROM? I had awful bluetooth issues (crackling on my end and the other end) until I upgraded from 1.47 to 1.57. I'm now on 1.58 because it has a major data speed boost but I'm getting occasional blips on my end again. People on the other end don't hear anything, so with the speed improvement I'm sticking with it. You might try upgrading - maybe first to 1.57.
How can I tell what version my Radio ROM is? Then what is the best way to get the software to upgrade? I would like to learn how to do this.
Also, do I need to upgrade A2DP on my device?
When you first boot its one of the numbers on the lower right. I think its the middle number.
Or you can go into Start>Settings>System>Device Information
First you need to fully unlock your Athena. There are several threads on this here, one of them has the software. Then you need to find the thread with either the 1.57 or 1.58 radio. If you are often in a 3G area I recommend the 1.58 radio, you will get much faster Internet connections. Otherwise I feel 1.57 is more stable for bluetooth. Note that when you unlock and again when you upgrade the radio it will do a hard reset, so copy down any settings and back up any files before you do it, and wait to restore everything after you upgrade the radio ROM.
It would be a good time to try one of the many OS ROMS around here, if you are interested.
Hey, is anyone using the bluetooth headset Jabra BT8040, When I first bought the headset, I had no problems using it. But I've noticed a few months ago, that whenever I use the device, the person I'm calling wont be able to hear me but I can hear them. Anyone have any ideas to solve this problem?
Similar problems
I've got the same earpiece and I've had some problems with it, including: unable to pair (or saying it's paired when it really isn't), unable to connect the BT on a call, and sometimes the earpiece will just disconnect from the phone (but the call will still remain active).
That last one is the closest I've come to your issue. I usually have to put the phone in discovery mode (and the earpiece) and try repairing them from scratch.
I've heard from others with this earpiece that they haven't had problems, but I don't know anyone who has this earpiece and the Raphael. Also, I've got the Motorola S9 bt headphones and I haven't had any problems with them. So, I'm not 100% it's the earpiece but then again it could be.
i have this jabra for about 6 months and had no problem at all with Raphael!
Changed ROM
I've just changed the ROM on my phone (as in signature line) so that may change things for me with the Jabra BT.

I'm using the updated ROM and radio in my signature line with the Jabra BT8060 (wasn't it? whatever the one we were talking about in this post is) as well as a Motorola S9 and I pair it with my laptop for internet access that way. So far I have not had the same troubles with the Jabra BT as I used to. It could be due to updated drivers for the BT or the fact that I'm not using TF3D (just the new WM6.5 interface).
Either way, I'm having good results so far.
I spoke too soon on BT...
I've spoken too soon on BT. I was trying to get my Motorola S9 working so I could listen to music from my phone. No luck at all - it shows the S9 connected for both the calls and the the music, but it only works on calls and the music plays on the device with the speaker. And it was working just fine this morning. Bluetooth in general is so frustrating to me that I would literally remove it from every costom ROM I use EXCEPT for "Internet Sharing" (on an Acer laptop and netbook) over bluetooth and activesync with a PC. Not just with this phone, but seriously, with BT 2.0 it should work A LOT BETTER than it does.
I have similar issues with several different Moto H700's. I can hear them but they can not hear me. Possibly the BT drivers from HTC need a fix????
