I notice with skype (running OMAP at 240) when i make calls it is on speaker phone....any way to have sound come out of the earpiece, or toggle between it and speaker phone when i dont have headset in?
thanks...
stumped..
anybody aware of it?
I also want to know this as well..
Regardless of which entity is responsible for this not being implemented, the absence of small yet important features such as this are what make the entire Pocket PC platform seem juvenile at times
I downloaded skype v2 for wm5 yesterday, and it actually works on the wizard... HOORAY!!! download the version for the universal
and YES... it works with the headphones, otherwise sound goes to the external speaker
The new imate rom comes with skype 1.1 and it worked....but more as a technology demo... completely unusable unless you wanted to reset every other minute to get your contacts back... memory hog yadayadayada.
ref: http://forum.skype.com/viewtopic.php?t=51781
so its an issue....
that skype forum proves no help, no responses! hah
it is not an issue. it is how things work. there is not way to fix it. The normal phone speaker is hardwired to the gsm radio. there is no way to get any audio that does not come off of a GSM phone call to go to that speaker.
u ever used speakerphone with gsm?
So even though your GSM calls can be routed to the external speakers, the audio port or even a bluetooth device which uses the handsfree profile, you're telling me there's no possible way to route audio into the internal handset speaker. Do you know this for a fact or are you just making assumptions based on limited knowledge of these devices?
this isn't about speakerphones and such, as you're telling the audio signal to go to different places. what eguess is saying is that the little speaker we hear from isn't connected to a simple audio solder, but straight to the radio. and that radio doesn't get input audio from anywhere else but the radio itself. get it now?

So i was just wondering with skype work with a bluetooth headset? Thanks
not true. i could listen music in the built in earpeice once before while on the phone. it doesn't seem to work now. idk weird.
i could also listen to music on the included headset before while on the phone but it doesn't seem to work anymore.
so i don't think its hardwired. it must be in the registry somewhere enabling/disabling internal earpeice.

Well, not everything is in the registry either. Ok, why does Opera for PPC leave extra spaces? Absolutely ridiculous.

Hi
I´m thinking of buying the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 bluethooth headset for my qtek9100 (Wizard) and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this headset.
The things I want from it is:
1. play music of course, I use Mortplayer or PocketMusic for my music now but i can change if none of those work.
2. Change tracks and see the song playing in the dispaly
3. Recive calls and see who is calling in the display.
4. Watch video and get auido in headset, use TCMP here but again I can change if neccesary.
I know that the headset supports both A2DP and AVRCP but I would like to know if anyone tested this with the wizard. The headset is pretty pricey (about 900 SEK or 94 euro here in Sweden) so I want to make sure its all it says it is and that it works.
My other option is the RClip35 from itech which seems pretty sweet aswell, anyone tried that one?
Thanks

I've got one, using it with my Qtek 9100 with the "Mr Clean" ROM and it works great. Sound quality is excellent, the ear buds appear to be the same as Sony's high end ones (which I'm using with my iPod) and the head set build quality is high.
I can definitely recommend it for the 9100.

Is that so? I just checked at a reseller and saw this (translated from swedish)
Bluetooth Stereo Headset with display that has support for Caller ID and also see what song is played.
Bluetooth version 2.O with A2DP protokoll (Stream sound in Stereo) and Digital Signal Protokoll) which means improved sound quality.
So I´m pussled..true or false?
Also, looking at pictures of this one, from what I can see it has many wires, only difference to the one that comes in the package with the Qtek9100 is the wire to the phone of corse, don´t you find this a bit annoying?
Thinking of buying one myself and I have today a HBH-610 that can´t do A2DP sadly BUT it´s just one thingy on the ear and that´s it...oh well guess I have to scarifice that if I wan´t A2DP which I do...

Argh. It DOES do Caller ID. The display is so tiny that I guess I assumed it would not display the caller ID.
Makes this headset even better!

Thanks for the replys guys, I think now I will go ahead and buy one when I get enough cash.
One additional question: Does it have a ring speaker och vibrate function?
I'm thinking of a scenario when you have the phone in a pocket or bag and have the clip on your shirt but the earbuds not in your ears and the phone rings, is it possible to hear it or do you have to have the buds pluged in?
Here's a link to the headset and the lowest prices (for Sweden)

It does not vibrate but it plays the ring tone - and it's audible when just hanging around the neck unless the environment is really noisy.
The phone rings too, of course.
I´ll buy this one also soon, thx for the recommendations/explanations.

I bought one of these last week and agree that the sound quality is excellent. I expected some background Bluetooth-style hiss but I can't hear any.
£70 may be a bit steep, but I think they are worth it.
For me, I always dock my Wizard in a cradle at work, which blocks the phono jack. So these fix that problem. Now I can also carry my Wizard wherever on my person I choose and not have to worry about wires.
And the real benefit is, when docked, I use Raspberry Software's True Connect, so I can control my Wizard with my mouse (excellent software), so even without A2DRP (something like that) I can still change my music at my desk.
The actual bluetooth part is really light and you don't knotice it round your next, most people probably think it's just an MP3 player, albeit a small one.
Highly recommended by me.
Hi Guys,
got this tiny little toy too, sound is good, but some questions are still unanswered:
Songs aren´t display in the sceen of the Sony remote control, any chance to get this thing to work?
I would love it to use an other Player than this f*cking MediaPlayer, but with other Player the Buttons won´t work.....
Any idea?
What about the range?
Hi all,
What are your experiences with respect to the range of this headset, when used in combination with the Wizard? I'm fairly disappointed in that area: As soon as I move the wizard from the 'line of sight' of the headset, the audio feed breaks up. This means that I won't be able to stash my phone in my backpack for example.
regards,
dafit
@Dafit:
I only keep it in my jeans front pocket, or my Suit Jacket inner pocket, so no problems there. However I have noticed it doesn't seem to cope well if it's not in line of sight. I held my Qizard behind my back and it cut out.
So that's one downside. Quite big if you want to keep it in your bag...
@Whumpscut:
Agreed with the songs suggestion, would be nice. As for other Media Players. Have heard mention that TCPMP might allow control via the Bluetooth, but I've tried it and it wouldn't work.
There's also an update coming out sometime soon from Conduit the makers of Pocket Player that will do this. See their forum for details.
Hi Nooner,
I just got my headset this morning and been testing it for a while. I notice that music playback after a call doesn't work even though the music is still playing but just no sound is coming from the headset. Just wonder whether have you experience this problem b4. I am having a O2 wizard with the lastest rom. Thanks

I don't have that problem, as nobody ever rings me :lol:
I have heard this as a problem. But joking aside, I've only had my headphones for about 5 days and usually only listen at work or to and from work (via the tube/underground), which is when I don't really receive calls.
But I've heard this reported. Don't know if it's the headphones or a problem with A2DP.
Thanks for the reply. I will try and search the forum and see. Will report back if I found anything.
In this user review he mentions the same problem http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=7463154#post7463154 Maybe its because of the A2DP patch but I dont have the problem with a Nokia HS-12W or Itech Clip S.
Yes is exactly the same problem. But seems like no one has a solution for it so far.
Hi efjay,
Just wonder what do you think about the nokia hs12w. Do you have any problem with it at all or it just works fine with the phone. Cause I am thinking of returning the sony n get something else.
I just ordered mine. Will be here on Monday :lol:
Can't wait.
[edit]
Damn it. They just called and said it's on "national backorder"
Must find one....

Have a look in this thread for opinions on the Nokia http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=48290
I myself think its good, solid build, large display, clear sound and the radio is an added bonus.
All,
I thought I would start a thread where people can post what headsets they have and/or are using with the Kaiser. That way, if people want to buy a headset to use with the Kaiser they can know ahead of time whether or not it will work. I love this device, but right now I am not very pleased with my headset. Respond and I will try to keep it up to date!!
1. (Me) Plantronics 665 - Previously a very good headset. Now with Kaiser, not very good quality. Barely functional with lots of static.
2. Moto H700 - Seems to be good. (x2)
3. Moto HT820 - Stereo Headphones, but good.
4. Plantronics 310 - No report.
I'm using the Motorola H700 and it works fine.

I am using the HT700 for standard driving. But I also use the Motorola HT820, BT stereo headphones, and they work as well. Music plays from the phone, and if a phone call comes in, Microsoft Voice Command annouces the caller. I can then press the call phone, the music pauses, I take the call. When the call is over, the music resumes where it left off.
i have a set of the ht820 but I feel like a retard with em on cause they are huge, anyone tried those new slim ones they sell at the ATT store?

Then call the Olympics, cause I feel special
For me it’s a Plantronics 310 right now, but I'm looking to upgrade. I will likely stick with one of their products too, as I’ve processed around a quarter million inbound via their wired sets at work.
There was mention of a pretty cool Jawbone modification by AVERYSOUND in an earlier thread. It’s pricy however but worth looking at. It appears to address complaints I’ve heard about the earpiece not being a factor.
Update: I found Discovery 510 (Plantronics) that I had misplaced some time back. Well I charged it up and paired to the Kaiser earlier today. What a bummer. The sound quality is ok, but the volume is just too low, even at the max setting. It’s also bit more cumbersome to slip on in a pinch (like while driving). Bottom line is the 310 sounds much better to me from a volume standpoint.
Fwiw…

me too, doesn't stop me from wearing them
the new ones do look a whole lot cooler, I didn't care so much but with as sleek as the tilt looks my headphones should match
The Blueant Z9 works very well. I like how voice command is announced through the headset.
Jabra JX10
I have the JX10. It was a dream with my 8525 it sounded and worked great.
caveat: in general it is a very delicate and breakable headset -- I have had two of them and done numerous repairs to keep them from falling apart - I have cannibalized the first to keep the second one going - but what the hell, I love that little head set with my 8525.
BUT
It is an unusable pig connected to the Tilt.
It pairs ok, but when you activate voice command or try to answer a call it activates the phone but will not transfer sound (or mic) to the ear piece. Sometimes after a short time the JX10 beeps and then you can hit the connect button again and it will transfer the sound. If you place a call it will not play the ring signal into the ear piece or the handset and it will only allow you to connect sound (signaling you with a couple of beeps) to hear the call until after the called party has answered.
Maddening!
I've actually struggle to answer or make a call using it and finally got the sound through only to hear my friends on the other side yelling "HELLO?! - HELLO! - YOUR PHONE SUCKS!"
it's embarrassing.
Don't even get me started about how bad it sounds on the Tilt.
I'm tempted to go back to the Hermes, but I love my new Tilt...
I need a high quality compatible headset...
The Samsung WEP200 works very well with the Tilt.
im using the plantronics 590 and it works LIKE A CHARM!
there's a thread on this over in accessories btw. I'm moving this thread there as well. Let me know if you want me to merge the two.
Motorola S9 works very well. Much better than with WM6 on Hermes.
I still need to verify my Sony Erickson DS970 Lanyard Wireless Stereo Headset..
Jawbone
I purcahsed the jawbone with military sound dampening....its pretty cool. I use it alot and it sounds GREAT!
Now I am alos looking at the Mototola s9, as I want to be able to listen to music. Let me know if anyone has robb with the S9. for the reviews on the Motorola S9 seem 50/50.

I have been using mine for about 2 months and so FAR really good with the ATT Stock ROM. On the Hermes with WM6 cooked ROM's I experienced strange issues like music resuming after a call (even though the music was paused BEFORE the call came in). Since getting away from the cooked Hermes ROM's (no offense to anyone at all), the performance has been SOLID. I am very Happy...

Jabra BT8010 Convertible (single/stereo) headset
Well, since I figured I was going to be really stepping into the 21st century by getting my Tilt, I determined to jump into it with both feet ! Hence this headset.
I did alot of research on the BT headset (like I did on the Kaiser/Tilt itself), and I knew pretty much what I wanted to do -- and this Jabra BT8010 convertible (mono/stereo) headset totally fit the bill. I planned on answering calls as normal, but I listen to alot of music, too, and wanted just one thing to carry around. If you haven't seen one of these headsets online, it's about the only one I'm aware of that "converts" -- that is, it has a main unit, and the "second half", or "satellite" that makes the stereo part of the equation optionally plugs into and tethers to the main part when you want to listen to music, too. The whole thing is quite small and svelte -- though ever so slightly "cyborg" (you'd have to see it worn).
The function of this headset has been flawless so far, and the sound quality is just mind-blowing (yeah, it's that good). Volume won't get quite as head-bangingly loud as I might like, but the overall fidelity and usable flexibility of this combo just puts it head over shoulders above anything else I've tested out.
A little pricey, but they are just really good.
I use the stereo headset Jabra BT620s with the Kaiser. It works very well both for music and for the phone, even in noisy environments
The old school Motorola HS850 works fine from my experience. I also own a Jawbone, which sounds tinny when compared to the HS850.

Motorola S9 for me too
though I could never paired it to a 2nd device SIMULTANEOUSLY though ... any advice ??
I followed the instructions to a T ... yet, it always paired to the last one ... I thought this is capable of upto 9 devices in list ... and they said it's capabled of simultaneous pairing ???
summary:
/ paired to phone.
/ turn off phone and attempt to paired to 2nd device ( desktop stereo ... desktop PC ..etc..etc
/ even went as far as "unticked" the "use as stereo headset" withing the bluetooth setting on phone !! only ticked as " use as handsfree " ... tried both ways too.
it always connect only the the last paired device.
now ... if I'd only paired to the phone ... it works as advertised in terms of listening to music and calls come in get interupted to answer the call & back to music when call ended.
but I can't use it as just handsfree on the phone and listen to music from another device ( bluetooth home entertainment ... desktop bluetooth PC...etc )
pairing to any device(s) individually works fine ... just not simultaneously though
any advice ???
So, after stumbling around I managed to get JF's build on my G1. Cool! I'm insanely impressed with the snappiness of the UI and the multitude of new features. I connected my bluetooth headset (Motorola H710), which totally works, pairs, etc. just as it did before the update. I don't see an option for stereo bluetooth, though. I have 'connected to phone audio' checked under 'connect' and I have the same checked under 'phone'. I presume this is all I need to do. Here's the issue:
I get no audio through the bluetooth headset. All audio (system sounds, music, and calls) is routed through the earpiece on the handset. The bluetooth's mouthpiece works fine, and the other person hears me loud and clear when I speak through it.
Help?
I'm very sorry if this is an obvious answer. I browsed the first page and didn't see anything.
Well, I upgraded to the Cupcake radio and now I can hear through bluetooth. I definitely still don't get my miscellaneous audio through it, though- button presses, music, etc. So... I guess AD2P is what I'm having a problem with. Does my headset just not accept an AD2P profile?
yes you need to have AD2P headsets in order for you to hear music thru it
Thanks. Looks like this one can be chalked up to me being an idiot.
Is there a popularly recommended set that people here like?
i got these and love it http://www.cellphoneshop.net/855.html. But i see alot of ppl using these http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-MOTO...CO5Q/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1241926911&sr=8-5. i like mine cause iy can look like a reg bt and still have music play thru it. i use it at work all day but they dont know im listening to music.
Sorry for the quircky title.
I want to get myself the HD2, since I just love the screen and it's pretty tweakible . However, I can't hold a phone at my ear for a long time, so I want to use a Bluetooth Stereo headset. But, I will not be wearing the plugs in my ear during the entire day, so I need the following feature:
1. When connected to the Bluetooth Stereo Headset, I want the sound of incoming calls, sms, mms, email, whatever... via the speaker on the phone.
2. When I answer a call, I want the audio to go over the Bluetooth Stereo Headset.
3. When I play music, watch video, etc, I want all the audio from 1. and 2. to go over the Bluetooth Stereo Headset.
4. When the Bluetooth Stereo Headset is not connected I want all the audio to go via the speaker on the phone.
Can this be done by a default solution, or do I need to download free / buy commercial software for this or is it just not possible?
I can't find the answer anywhere, so that's why I'm asking.
Thank you for any and all answers.
hi,
you should get a headset that supports both bt audio protocols 1. hands-free for phonecalls and 2. stereo audio for music and systemsounds. i have 2 of these devices, when they connected all music and systemsounds are redirected to the headset, also phonecalls. the only thing that the speaker of the phone plays are the ringtones for incomming calls. the only thing not working of your list is the notification for sms, mms etc. because the hd2 is playing them as normal audio, so you hear them on the headset and not at the speaker. but that may depend on the rom you use.

Thanx madbird. All I needed to know. I can live with this idea. For the other notifications there might be a led feature, so that solves yet another question. Sill doubting between X10 and HD2 though...
I remember I saw a registry modification here on XDA to force the sound of ringing through the main speaker and not through the headset, I just don't remember where.... google it.

I found some posts. However, I can't test anything, since I don't have the HD2. Yet. After watching another gazillion youtubes regarding the HD2 I will get it. I just can't get myself to part from outlook yet and keep all my contacts/calendar/tasks etc in 'the cloud'...
Why part from outlook? No need to, I do everything with outlook like the past 6 years and don't use the myphone thing...

Sorry, I'm mixing posts again . I was in doubt between the X10 and the HD2. After watching and reading quite some (p)reviews and youtube movies, I do see the power of Android, but integration with Outlook is slim to none. Yes, I can use Moxier, but that would give me 2 contact databases (from what I understoord anyways), missing the integration fun. And I don't want to use Google calendar/mail/taks etc, since they lack integration. It will come, but I need that stuff today, not tomorrow.
Short version: I do not want to part from Outlook , it's one of the main reasons for me not switching to Android...
