Headset mic and controls - Legend Accessories

Hi,
I have a set of Sony earphones/headset that I used on my iPhone. It has a button and mic like the stock iPhone ones.
I have a couple of questions:
1) I have tried a 'droid' app that enable music controls from the headset button, it didn't work.
Is there anyway to disable the default option that 'doubleclick' redials the last number? (Some other music apps include this feature, but I have found them all to have problems. bTunes was close, but it crashes with 12g of music.)
2) The iPhone heaset mic works on my HTC, the Sony one doesn't. The Sony one is fine on the iPone, but the mic doesn't work on the HTC. (Although the headset icon appears)
Any help much appreciated.

BlueTooth A2DP and switching the screen off

Anyone got it to work? the BT headphones work fine as long as the device is 'switched on', if I switch the screen off it pauses playback, but only with BT headphones, works fine through wired headphones.
Any ideas?
I haven't had that problem at least when listening to music, but I only have headphones at the moment so thats all i use them for.
I am using the Plantronics 590A, and I am able to switch the power on and off from the phone during music playback just fine. The music keeps playing over bluetooth.
Odd then, got some sony BT headphones, and if I turn off the screen, then it stops.
Hmmm, have to have a dig around and see if I can work out what the problem is, what ROM's are you guys running, oh and remember this only effects the BT A2DP headphones, works fine with wired.
What player are you using?
The work around that works for BOTH WMP and AudioManager is to also install Advanced Configuration. Advanced Configuration includes some helpful shortcuts. ONe of these short cuts is callled "Turn off screen." This shortcut will be available in Settings/Buttons, so just assign it to one of your less important buttons (I use PTT Hold). Viola, when you want to shut off the screen, just use the hardware button and both players will continue to play AND over BT.

Just FYI, using a prophet and I have the opposite behaviour, ie it stops if A2DP is disabled.

Help using bluetooth headset with xperia x1

Hi, i have spent some time searching now and since i couldn't find this anywhere i decided to post here, hope someone can help me.
Recently, i bought the official sony playstation 3 bluetooth headset (http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Accessories/SCPH-98095) and i have connected it to my xperia x1 through bluetooth (running with itje's touch-it xperience v13.2), the problem is, it only outputs sound for the voice calls, i can't listen to music on it or the normal phone sounds. I know it would be mono sound and not high quality, but i would like to listen to the sound anyway sometimes because its better then leaving it silent.
i have tried in the bluetooth configuration window, clicking in advanced, editing the wireless device profile, thre it was marked hands-free, i clicked refresh and headset appeared, i marked it, then the headset disconnects. when i reconnect it, it auto demarks headset, or it doesnt connect.
I have looked around to see if it was the bluetooth headset problem, but i have not seen anyone else complaining about this or even mentioning it can't play the phone sounds (just some complains about the ps3 sounds not outputing but thats the ps3 fault), and i have also searched to see if it is x1s fault but haven't managed to find an answer as well, so if anyone can plz help i would really appreciate it. Thanks.
thats pretty much because its no BUG.
what u want is a a2dp headset. something tells me that the ps3 headset doesn has this feature. normal headset just route voice calls while a2dp headset route everything.
actually, i didnt use the word bug because i though that might be the case
it has the headset and handsfree profile, not a2dp, but what i wasnt sure if it really needed to have de a2dp profile to output normal sounds, from what i've read it seems it is needed to output stereo high quality sounds, but just sounds with low quality would work for me, thats why im asking, i though the headset profile would be enough for that.
so if i get your message right, unless it has specifically the a2dp profile, there is no other way of making the sound output on the headset, low or high quality?
now i know there might be a way to make it work.
i was listening to some music today using the music player that comes with touchflo 3d, then i pressed the talk button of my bluetooth headset to issue a voice command (with the microsoft voice command program), then the music started playing in my headset while it was waiting for the voice command, once it got the command the music went back to the phone.
Does anyone know any way to make my headset keep playing the sounds, or could at least explain what happens when i press the talk button so i have an idea of where to look to see if find a way?
no one can help me with this? not any tip or a way to select a different output for audio or anything like that?
Also an issue with Audio Gateway
I have tested this issue on two seperate headsets, and so far can get the Xperia to work ONLY as hands free. Seperate phones sperate headsets. The other phone pushed audio thru to the headset whereas the X1 only routes calls.
I also cant find much of this on XDA or anywhere else?
Help?
Regards
i used an ad2p software downloaded from here when i had this issue with my lg ks20. But i havent the gut or im just lazy to try this app on the x1. Maybe u should give that ad2p software a try.

[Q] Bluetooh Controls

I have a Jabra BT3030 and paired it with my Galaxy S.
Stereo sound works fine, but my gripe is that none of the bluetooth controls work (back, pause/play, forward). I tried this with another headset (altec), but is still doesn't work. The volume controls work fine though.
Has anyone experienced this?
Is this an android limitation or is it just with the Galaxy?
btw, my firmware is JM7 in case it might be with the firware...

The buttons work fine on my platronics bt. Wait for froyo official as its said to have improved bt headset features
working fine with
Jabra BT8010
Motorola HT820
my car CZ509
and a few other older BT stereo headsets from Sony, Plantonic, etc
I'll suggest to pair it again.
the controls are usually 1 touch for pause/play, double tap for skip next, unless it has its own buttons for that, and... well lots of other combos depending on the buttons setup on the headsets
@allgamer
paired it again and still a no go. it has its own buttons for play/pause, forward, back, volume, answer. basically, its a bluetooth module where i can plug my own earphones.
it's working flawlessy with my omnia hd.
do you know what bluetooth profiles our galaxy s supports?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
not exactly, but i do know it supports all the standard stereo, a2dp, avrcp, file transfer, contacts, GPS, phone calls, the only things not supported are HID mouse and keyboard
hmm... something doesnt add up... maybe the rom since i havent tried it with prev firmwares. i'll try pairing again.

I have the same issue. Use SBH650 bt. But it appears only in standart player. I also use Ambling Player for audio books and it works fine with it. My firmware is JM2. Re-pairing doesn't solve this issue.
I'm using Sony Ericsson MW600 & DS980.. both seems fine..
still no go for me... seems the answer/end key does work, as well as the volume keys. so only my playback, fw/rew key don't work. but when i press them, the screen lights up and the touch buttons light up too. i'll try experimenting with a diff player and see if it's just with the samsung misuc player.
OT: DaRkMyk, where'd you get the SE MW600? I've been looking for that for a while now.
MW600 and Galaxy S
I see that a few people use the MW600 with the Galaxy S. I recently bought a MW600, the device is paired to the phone, plays music fine with all the controls working. It is also the default calling device. And this is where I have a problem, when I make or receive a call the called/calling party can hear me clearly but I can't hear anything. I have turned up the volume to max, I have also reset the MW600 and repaired it with the device, turned off the wi-fi on the Galaxy S,. Basically tried most of the solutions that are available. Has anyone else had this problem. I tried the MW600 with some other phones (Nokia X6) and had the exact same problem.
@aridoasis I bought mine here in singapore for S$118. I don't know if it is available there in the Philippines, but you can always buy from eBay & it's also cheaper.
@sandsri I never experienced that problem, have you tried your MW600 on other mobile phones?

Bluetooth Audio output

Does anyone know of a reliable Bluetooth Audio App? i tried (what seems to be the only one on the market) Bluetooth Audio widget app and it does the trick... it transfers all the sound like music, gps directions and phone call to my jawbone. The application itself crashes all the time and the widget it self is non responsive sometimes and you have to remove it and add it again.
I'm not sure what you mean. I have a stereo bluetooth headset for running and such and all I do is enable bluetooth on my phone and turn on the headset (it was one I got on new egg by motorola and will take calls as well). Anyways it automatically transfers audio after that to the headset only. I assume this is the way out normally is for any headset.

[Q] Headset hardware wiring config

Hi,
When playing video or music, the original headset that came with this phone works without any problem.
The only button on the headset is able to pause/resume the movie.
When i tried another headset (meant for Sony Ericsson phone), the sound seems partially muted.
The only button on the headset somehow can un-mute the headset, but only when i press and hold the button.
The headset was tested working fine on Sony Ericsson phone.
Both headsets seems to be wired differently. Is there anyway to config the Sony Ericsson headset to work properly?
The apps i found inside google play does not seem to be able to solve the partial mute problem.
Please advice or point me in the right direction. Thanks.
