Bluetooth Headset - Fascinate General

What bluetooth head set do you use now with Fascinate. One that doesn't muffle due to fascinate firmware issue.
How's Jawbone?

I use MW600 from Sony. Works great and can be used with music, navigation, etc even without froyo.

I just got a BlueAnt Q1 and it works great - I tried the T1 but it won't connect to my phone for some reason. Never tried a Jawbone tho.....

I have used a Blueant V1 with no problems. Only issue I have is most roms won't allow voice commands to work properly. V1 has its own speed dial but I hate remembering who speed dial 6 is ...

I suggest you remove it from the Parrot and re-pair it.
My Streak works fine with my Parrot CK3100.
Is that with 2.1 or 1.6 android ive dell direct 1.6 model

+1 with what Flavio said. Is your phone actually connecting to the Parrot system when you start the car? Try unpairing and re-pairing them. When you have bluetooth on and you start the car up, they should auto connect to each other and as soon as you make a call or receive one, audio should come from the speakers and not the phone.
Also, have a look on Parrot's website and make sure that the Parrot system is upto date with the latest firmware. I've got the MKi9200 and my Dell Streak (Direct from Dell running Android 1.6) was having connection problems before, it kept on disconnecting and reconnecting itself every couple of minutes. But after updating the firmware, it fixed everything and now works fine.
Right got my phone to work out.. I worked out as long as its got blietooth on before I start my engine it connects fine. On annoyance is when I dial from phone it go through phone first I have to press bluetooth on caller disolay for it to go through speakers. I cant find a setting to change this any ideas

Nice work mancuk29, tho I don't know why it's defaulting to your phone and not the bluetooth, like I mentioned in my previous post, my system defaults to the bluetooth device once its connected.
The only thing I can suggest is to check that the pairing options are set up correctly by entering the phone's Settings -> Wireless controls -> Bluetooth settings -> then select and hold the Parrot device -> Options... -> then make sure that the "Phone" option is ticked. If it is already ticked then no idea mate...sorry!

What ROM are you using on your Streak?

T-Mo Galaxy tab cannot pair with phone BT headsets

It seems that the BT headset function is disabled in the T-Mo Tab so even if you use Skype you cannot use BT which is very annoying for a device of this size
I have tried to pair a few of them and they are all not visible when BT scanning to pair
Is there a way to patch that with some of the EU tab files?
Thanks
Eric
Note: it is possible to pair stereo headsets but they will not work with skype or a VOIP app
My plantronics voyager pro+ works great with my tab. There is actually a thread already with tab owners talking about what all bluetooths work and which ones dont. My tab is a tmo tab.
Sent from Jt's Samsung Galaxy Tab!!
Thanks JTC442
Your plantronics voyager pro+ is supporting A2DP and all (or most of) the A2DP headsets are connecting to the Galaxy Tab
Have you been able to use this headset for a VOIP call?
Eric
No, only using actual phone. No mic with voip.
Sent from Jt's Samsung Galaxy Tab!!
That is why I am looking for a file patch in this thread to get access to these features
It is interesting to inventory the handsets that works but at the end of the day,
None works in headset mode and most of them work in headphone mode
I would bet that the EU FW has BT headsets working just fine

yeah my bt headsets were working fine with the EU firmware , i have the plantroics 975 and jabra stone, also the Motorola MOTOROKR S9-HD worked great.. only thing i did notice i was having some issues reconnecting to the my bt headsets sometimes either a bad flash or something to do with the wifi ad-hoc mod, when i get my tab again i will try with the new euro firmware and see if i have the same issues, the Motorola MOTOROKR S9-HD did work on the US firmware just fine as well as my jabra stone but did not detect my plantronics 975
I have a feeling bluetooth headsets have been blocked on u.s. Tablets to prevent phone use. I have tried 2, both work fine on othet devices, but are not found in my GT's settings-bluetooth-scan menu... However I downloaded the google bluetooth app, and it does see the headset, even though its not the proper device type for that app.

Works fine on Euro Tab, but not with Skype because Skype does not even try to use the phone BT profile.

Can you be a bit more specific? What Google Bluetooth app??
Its called "bluetooth talk" by google market inc on applanet. Not in the normal market, not sure why or if its really a google thing now. But "bluetooth chat" in the market sees my headset just fine also.
Sent from my SGH-T849 using Tapatalk
Not fond of Applanet, I rather pay for shareware when I need it and support the developers. What does this Bluetooth Talk does? Does it help in anyway?
E
The apps wont pair with the device but will show that the device is actually viewable to the tab. Just search "bluetooth chat" in market. Hit search and it will discover the headset. You still cant pair, but it shows there is no problem with the bluetooth protocol stack, but the pairing program settings compromised.

Thanks, this confirms that we are facing a fw issue. The hw is just fine

Bluetooth Audio Problem

Hello.
I have just bought a Dell Streak in Dubai. It was android 2.1 and I was able to immediately update it to 2.2. It works beautifully, is fast and does everything I throw at it and more.
Problem:
Bluetooth audio simply does not work. I have tried pairing it with my car kit, a nokia headset, a jabra headset and a generic bluetooth headset. It pairs fine with the headsets and phone calls seem to go to the headset but there is no audio in the headset. The person on the other side also cannot hear anything. And after i press the bluetooth button during the call to bring the call back to the phone, the headset(or car kit) seems "locked" and only gets free when I switch off bluetooth on the streak.
Bluetooth file transfer works fine and I have tested it with a samsung galaxy s. But it doesnt work for phone calls. It is a major problem as it is difficult to use the device without the bluetooth on a regular basis and especially in the car.
I would appreciate any help in this matter as I love the device but as I spend considerable amount of my time driving, it is getting very annoying.
I had originally posted this on the Dell support forum and I was recommended to post it in the XDA forum.
Thanks
Babar Malik
I use my dell streak with my motorola s10 bt headset and my car bt handsfree system and have no issues at all.
Maybe try un-pairing all devices and repairing them and testing then one at a time and see is that helps. Askari when a device is connected go to settings, wireless, bluetooth and see if you can tap and hold on the connected bt item and see if you can adjust its settings.

Thanks for the assist but i tried unpairing and pairing but it did not work. Not too many options in the menus to change so I am pretty much stuck here.
As I have updated to android 2.2 from 2.1 which came with the phone, would a factory reset send the system back to 2.1 and then i can check whether bluetooth works or not? I mean, I cant think of anything else to do.
Is it possible that something i have downloaded or installed on the sd card is causing audio conflict with the bluetooth audio?
Thanks

[Q] Bluetooth Voice dialing help

Newly updated to EB13 and it running great except for my voice dialing over bluetooth doesn't seem to work. I connected everything alright and I even made a call over it with no problem, but when I hold the button down and release, I hear the "Say a command" (or w/e it is) and then a tone and get an error on the phone.
I have a plantronics headset that didn't have any problems doing BT voice dialing on previous phones I've owned. Is this an issue I may be able to fix with a reflash or is this a problem seen by anyone else?
Ditto!
Tried even a stock flash and can't get it to work. I have a Motorola Roadster and can't find a way to get it to work. Tried Choice Dial on mine, but it force closes. Frustrating!
same here!!!
yeah i also have had the same problem with not being able to use voice command over my bluetooth ..but i still can talk/hear pp while on the bluetooth device...i think its a bug in the eb13 update..i didnt have any problem when i was using the dk28 with bonsai or the new viper rom trinity 2.0 ...so again i say , its probley the eb13 update..i am sure the devs. will fix this soon in the future...just be patient and enjoy what you do have because some ppl are having even more problem then you are!!!! good luck and have fun!!
Me Too
Add me to the growing list of EB13 users having issues. My Motorola HF850 car kit will work once with voice command. After that it switches to phones speaker and mic which is not hands free. Pressing the talk button in the car brings up the voice command screen but it never switches. If I pick up the phone and talk to it, everything works fine.
The weird thing is my Jabra BT8010 works every time.
If anyone has ideas, I would be eternally thankful.
Same Here
No problem with BT using Stock (Samsung Installer)
All of the Deodexed Roms - VoiceDialer and BT don't play well together.
When I use it, it never understands what I say. I gave up on it. It is faster to just find the numbers in contacts. I use blueant t1.

VoiceDial with Bluetooth EB13
I can confirm that I had BT voicedial issues when using either deodexed flash version. As soon as I pushed the .tar file with Odin, my issues stopped.
The issue was BT would connect, ask me to start speaking and then error out with "goodbye" and Headset disconnected message.
Again...with odin method, all seems OK.
Epic Stock EB13 (unrooted for now)
Motorola H790 BT
This appears to be entirely related to deodexed roms not eb13 itself. I believe there is a tool that will re-odex a rom, anyone tried to see if that fixes this?

BT voice dialing
Like others, I have NO BT voice dial with a deoxed version of EB13 and EXT4 as the file system. I can get it to pair just fine and reconnect, just no BT voice dialing (hum noise and disconnect). A fix would be greatly appreciated!
FYI - If I use the Samsung .exe updater for a stock (clean) install of EB13 with RFS all my headsets (3 of em) work just fine with BT dialing and pairing. No issues...
bluetooth
i have flashed the eb13 froyo onto my epic with the eb13 supernova,genocide .3a kernal and everything seems to be almost perfect except i still can not give voice commands over my bluetooth ....it will activate, say speak now and then it will disconnect before i can even give a command...if there is a fix for this please let me know...thanks

My voice dial works to dial phones, but other voice commands such as "Play" to play music do not--reverts to dialer. Plantronics backbeat 903
Someone else try this too?
I re-flashed to stock and decided to give it a try again. Re-paired my phone with the car. Still not working. I manually pressed the voice dial on the phone (i don't know why) from the menu and it played thru the car speakers??? From that point on, it worked until I disconnected it from the car. Got back into the car, phone connected to car, not working. Manually pressed voice dial again...it started working and worked again until I left the car.
Someone want to give this a try too...I could be imagining it.

What is a good bluetooth headset to use for phone calling?

Edit:
What is a good bluetooth earpiece (not headset, sorry about that) to use for phone calling. I want to use the tab as a cell phone.
I use the BlueAnt T1. About $80 at Bestbuy. Excellent headset except that the T-mobile Tab isn't set up with voice dialing.The BlueAnt headset has voice dialing capabilities but the tab doesn't...as far as I can tell anyway.
Other than that the BlueAnt does everything that I need.
Bugman do a search for voice dial, or bluetooth dial.
There is a thread with an .apk that makes the tab work on BT voice dial

I'm using the Motorola SD9-HD. This is a stereo headset that works well for music, as well as phone calls. Bought it online for around $45. I've used it with my Sprint SGT to make Skype calls and listen to Slacker online radio.
It will accept voice commands for dialing out on my Moto Droid but I don't think the Tab is set up for it.
I think that you guys misunderstood me.
I am looking for a bluetooth earpiece (not headset, sorry) that I can use to make and take phone calls from the Galaxy tab.
I need it small enough to put it in my pants pocket.
Thanks.
Oops! I think there are any number to choose from, although I never had much luck with Bluetooth headsets for longer than a few months. Not really sure why. For reliability I've pretty much standardized on cheap, corded headsets for everyday use.
I think the last BT headset I had was a Jawbone because it was supposed to use DARPA technology to cancel out background noise. After a couple of months it quit pairing, but I never determined if it was the headset, the phone or just a ghost in the machine.

I use multipurpose universal BH105 nokia headset. Works with tab nokia phone ps3 and costs around $15.
