I've been trying to find a way to listen to music through my BT headset. It's mono so that's the problem. I found alot of forums where people gave ideas but no one knew how to do this. We know it's possible because after you make a call, you can hear music for about 5 sec then it cuts to the phones speakers. I know there is a quality issue but i'm mainly listening to Howard Stern and Dan Patrick so it doesn't really matter. I know you can do this on WinMo, BB, and Iphone. Does anyone know how to do this or trick the phone into thinking I'm making a call (w/o using minutes lol) so that I can hear it? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Really, no one?
Might help if you tell people what phone and headset you're trying to use.

And they suck. my clock radio has better sound, i installed the A2DP cab file i can listen to music but its awful! Am i just missing something? Is there something im overlooking that can fix this? I hear people love these headphones. I actully read one post saying its the chipset in these headphones that doesnt work well with the 8125? Music sounds distorted and i keep hearing noise. Any truth to that? please help! Surely this isnt as good as it gets. thanks!
Same prob here. The sound is terrible.
But how is your sound when you connect it with the audio cable, is it still crap? Because mine is a bit better then.
I went back to the store with this problem and they said it wasn't normal and it must be my phone, but i douped that.
Has anybody have a clou?
I read thread somewhere and have tried to search many times over and can't seem to find it again.
Here's the issue. When I have a bluetooth device or even a corded headset -- people complain that I sound tinny. I know it's not the corded headset because I use it with my landline and it sounds perfect (it's a nice plantronics headset).
I saw someone mentioning a 'fix' before. I know there is the audopara fix but as I understand it that's just for volume. I'm not sure my volume sounds bad. I also don't even know if I need audiopara fix with DCD 2.3.2.
Anyone have any suggestions?
P.S. Is there any way to get a battery life icon on the desktop or today screen?
Alright, don't know when this started but I currently have Duttys HGR1.
The problem is that when I have the standard headset (that came with the TD2) the ringtone is played in the headset, so if I have the phone on my desk I can barely hear when there's an incoming call. Worse is, that if the phone is in another room I can't hear it at all.
I have tried different headsets but all with the same problem. When I unplug the headset it's all working as it should.
Can you please post your experience on this, how's it working for you?
I haven't experience it with my TD2, but for me it's OK like that. It was just like that on my previous phones, Nokia, SE...
Logicaly is if you have attached headset that headset should be on head and listening, not disturbing anyone arround.
This is my thinking, I would like to read others also.
uhm...just unplug your headset while sitting on your desk? or any time you AREN'T using it...seriously, the effort of plugging in a mini USB jack is...minimal...to say the least.
I use bluetooth stereo headphones that have such good ear buds, that if my phone WERE to ring loud and not via the headphones, i wouldn't hear it!
Thank's for you input guys.
Might sound like a non-issue but to me it is since I have to connect and disconnect the headset maybe 20 times a day and eventually the usb-port will give up.
I could understand that this is the way it's supposed to work, but before upgrading the ROM (I think that was when this changed) it worked just like I wanted it to.
So my hope is that there is a registry setting for this. If it is, please share! That would really help me out!
Leban,
I can sympathise with you. I have a similar problem. In my car, my car cradle is an FM transmitter and charger. Therefore, my TD2 thinks it is a headset, so all sound is sent through the transmitter. This is great if I am listening to music through the car radio, but often I am not. Therefore, the only way I can tell if there is an incoming call or email or SMS is by looking at the screen. I would like the sound for these notifications to come through the external speaker even if it is connected to the transmitter.....
We all use our phones differently don't we, so Drag-on, don't assume we are all like you.

i completely agree, i just couldn't think of a practical, real-life example where one would need to change where the ring came out of. You did that for me
I am quite sure it IS do-able...i'll ask around.

Nothing new here? Would be really great if this was possible to change!
This "feature" drives me crazy
Another example is when I'm in my car, if I have the phone enxt to me I can't hear the ringing. And NO, I don't want to sit for hours in my car with the headset in my ears
Not sure if any one else has had this issue, but previously I had a Palm Pre that I would connect to my Eclipse cd5030. People always said it was hard to hear me, so i found a better mic. Swapped it out and all was well.
Move now to my EVO. Everyone I talk to says it sounds like the mic is way to sensitive. I also know people have complained about crappy audio when recording video and think the 2 problems maybe related. I tried swapping the mic back to the OEM one and people said they could barely hear me again.
Does anyone have any pointers or know of any settings i can try to change etc? Another example of how it sounds is when i use fring with my wife (on her evo as well) and there is alot of noise in the background but there is nothing going on.
Any help, pointers, or comments would be appreciated
Thanks
p.s. Wife and I also have S9HDs but we have not tried them yet. I will try those soon and get back to this thread
No doubt I'll get flamed for asking a question that must of been asked before. So I apologise beforehand, but I searched and couldn't find the answer.
I know it's known the Android volume is lower than WinMo, does anyone know of a way to increase it? I don't have issues with in-call volume. Just media volume like YouTube player and the Music Player.
Thanks in advance for any helpful replies.
I am also encountering this volume problem. Also when I recorded a video, the quality was great, but the video volume is extremely low. Hope someone out there has a fix. Thanks in advance.
i would also be interested in finding out about this, at least someone reffer to us to a link and help us find the answer please
Looks like the problem is common to Android in general. The most promising info i found that somewhat made sense to me was this thread.

But I can find the files... make one of the cooks can make sense of it.
Bangsters lastest has the best volume I've heard yet.. haven't tried the other CM based Roms though I'm kinda hooked on this one.. just need to update my sig
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
i think it is a general android issue , my x10 also has the same issue
What's wierd is that I know it has the potential to be ear-splitting, but android just limits it for some reason. Sometimes when I first start playing music, The sound will absolutely BLAST for like half a second, and then 'corrects itself' down to a much lower volume.
I'm hoping they crack this nut soon too. The volume on Shubcraft is *okay*, but I still find myself turning it up as loud as it'll go. I have a pair of Hello Kitty headphones with a volume dial built in to them & they're really good for boosting music volume. For anyone who's having a problem with media volume, I suggest getting some headphones like this(not necessarily HK-branded lol).
Thank you all for the replies, at least I'm not the only one who was wondering. If it's just a general Android issue then I'll live with it, use headphones perhaps like someone suggested (not Hello Kitty though)
I have noticed though, with the game Paper Toss, the volume is loud. However when I use the YouTube player or Music Player and I find it difficult to hear at times. Unless I'm in a completely silent room. Doesn't make sense if It can go loud, why it doesn't. Or there's no App to boost the volume, that I can find anyway.
