headset for xperia play - Xperia Play Accessories

My Thread in Q&A was deleted i guess because it was the wrong place to start it.
so i try here and hope its ok,
does anyone know about the compatibility of the Play to other headsets?

i'm not sure what you really mean but as long as your headphone has 3.5mm jack then it should work..

Anything with a mic other than the headphones that are made by sony ericsson and are compatible with the play (livesound etc) may bug up.

calls wired - only sony ericsson headphones work guaranteed
others have a roughly 25% chance of working most dont
bluetooth - as far as im aware all bluetooth headsets work
(note: my official xbox 360 headset works fine its the new mw3 model (got it on sale for £30 same as the old))
music (no microphone attached) - my sennhieser headphones work great with no problems but ive head people say other headphones dont work or suffer with problems my guess is a decent pair should work when pushed in correctly as it doesnt use the microphone part of the jack which i believe is using a minus voltage to make it so only SE mics work

There's a converter that will make mic'd wired headsets work with the Play. I don't know why they did that. Converter is only a few bucks.

basically the android requiremnts are that it uses a 3.5mm jack as standard for audio headphone output so it cant be any of the old propriety types where every company was different and unique. so to make it so you could only use there headphones they use a different voltage at a minus level for voice.
i believe this is what has happened from what ive read about the android requirements and the logical thinking of SE trying to make you give them more money

Best earphones for TyTN II - MP3 Playback

Hi All,
I bought HTC Tytn II recently... It's rock.....
But i am very disappointed with the earphone quality of HTC... No Bass at all.... I am not saying mp3 playing quality is bad... I tried my motorola BT stereo headset and it gave me fantastic output with heavy bass..... So the quality of my HTC earphone is bad...
I found several earphones on HTC website.... can you please help me to find out an excellent HTC earphone which can give full Bassy effects.... or any other brand which haves mini usb port...... Dont want converters please.......
Thanks.

Why not? You are unlikely to find a decent pair of USB earphones IMHO.
I'd get a small adapter and buy some sure earphones for the best possible sound.
don't mean to hijack the thread but can anybody recommend a good bluetooth stereo headset? i want one that will be good with music and also allow me to make calls.
I am particularly looking for an in ear type earphone or a unit that allows me to use my own ear buds.
I've got the i-Tech Clip Radio (http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=145553). Works well with the kaiser, got play/pause, next/prev, volume, and call buttons, bulit in FM radio, and allows you to plug your own earphones in as it has a 3.5 jack.
How is this unit for bass?
Also it looks just like the htc S100, did HTC rebrand it?
I listen to alot of dance music, and with Sony's EX-71s it does me fine!
Yeh, the S100 is HTC's rebranded version of the non FM radio version!
I also have the iTech clip (excellent unit with medium audio quality) as it can handle calls and lets you use any 3.5mm jack units you have but you have loads of cables about (use my B&O earbuds on that).
For genaral use and if I want to anser a call I use the Promate PM-2006 BT stereo headset as it is a halfway sized headphone with good audio quality and in call holding.
But for sheer audio enjoyment, I use my Creative CB2530, absolute bliss and can put most Hi-Fi's to shame.
SOZ, probably not what the thread starter asked for but WHO is gonna produce a GOOD set of headphones terminated in a mini usb? You will need the converter or BT (no converter at all!)
Every BT unit I have works seamlessly, no clicks, no splutters, no bad audio with my 'out of the box' non-carrier HTC TyTnII.
Damn, its either the beer or I should have been a salesman! Smiles.
There aren't any "best" headphones without using an adapter. If you want the best you'll need to spend you're looking at the Shure SE530 or go custom which is around $1000. It all depends on your budget.
ive got the Shure e4c's connected through an adapter and i can say you can't get better sound.. its so crystal clear, it sounds better than live people in front of you talking
ok, I've something else to add.....well asK
Is there any bluetooth stereo heaphones (with very good sound quality but aren't humongous so as to make me look like a Martian ) that can pair with two devices at once?
For example, I have two phones which support A2DP and I use one as my music phone (Nokia N93i) but also use the TYTN 2 as my business phone. What I want is to be listening to my Nokia N93i through the earphones, and If my TYTN 2 rings, the music pauses so I can speak to the caller on the TYTN 2 then revert back to listening to music back on the N93i.....
.....is this even possible?

Well yes to the pairing to two sperate devices, and no to the 'very good sound quality but aren't humongous'. The Promate PM-2006 headset is a 'medium' sized' 'medium to good quality' folding headset with mike. Pair it to both units then disable the function you don't want it to do on whichever phone (under BT settings). It will halt audio and answer the call from the other unit. These headphones were primarily developed to use with a BT mp3 players with capability to connect to your mobile phone but WM phones do both!

Look at the Jabra BT8010. They're a little large, but have the advantage of using it in mono or stereo mode, as well as connecting to 2 devices simultaneously.
Incidentally, Seidio makes earphones that end in the proprietary htc mini-usb format. Haven't tested them out, but they're the only other ones i know of that don't need a converter.
Another vote for iTech Clip Radio. Works awesome with my Ultimate Ears Super fi 5 Extended Bass buds.
I bought Kyocera from here: http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=204239053&loc=111&pageFormat=20&rs=1&#cReviews
The best headphones I ever bought and have the most functionality. The only problem that some people might have is the look and size of the headphones. I have not charged the headphones for a month now and still running on standby.

has anyone tried any Sony bluetooth stereo headset?

I think it might be possible using the Sony Erickson BT Earphone Stereo set. Check FleaBay... They got them cheaper than anywhere else. ( BT phone would have to be close to you, just disable the bluetooth on N93i, however The Sony Er unit has a 3.5 jack that can be plugged into the N93i, just marry the TytnII to the bluetooth)
If you marry to phones BT to the headset, and if you get a call from one while listening to music from the other, you will hear both the caller voice and the music at the same time. Jabra is one headset that I know of that can accept two devices, however when tried, I heard the device playing music however the music volume was very low while I talked on the phone. Not a great setup but might do the trick.

Headphones with 750

What headphones do you guys use with your Treo 750?
At first, I just bought a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter and used any set of headphones but then became to cumbersome having to always unplug it to answer phone calls (especially in the cold).
So then I bought the Body Glove headphones with the 2.5mm jack but found out that only the right headphone works because the other signal is used for the mic! BUMMER!!!
So now, I'm to looking for another set of headphones that will work on the Treo 750. I want both right and left headphones to work and also have a working mic on it!
I might just get a bluetooth stereo headset and never have to worry about anything! But I just wanted to know what everyone else was using...
Thanks!
i bought a headset that had a 2.5 - 3.5 mm adapter and on the adapter itself was a button for switching b/w phone calls.
the other end was basically a jack for using any standard headphnes. so im some some sick in-ear ones taht have amazing bass (most of the regular phone headsets have sh!tty bass)
i would go w/ bluetooth but i dont know how much of a drain on battery they'd be. plus $$$.

I use an adapter from 2.5 to 3.5 and use a Creative headphones in order to listen music, sound is very good, but have no microphone, I'm thinking to buy a 2.5 headphone w/ mic, in my opinion a good brand should be the correct option, maybe somebody could tell us their experience.

Bluetooth Receiver for Headphones/Stereo

Curious if anyone has tried one of these or something like it.
http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-F8Z492TTP-Bluetooth-Music-Receiver
It is a Bluetooth receiver which allows you to plug into it, a stereo or in my case a pair of nice existing (non-bluetooth) headphones.
I've had bluetooth headphones before, but they were expensive and not all that comfortable. I am not a fan of ear plug type headphones and much prefer a good, well fitting headphone.
I already have a good set at work, were I can completely drown out the noises in the office and concentrate on coding. With the N7 having Bluetooth (the Kindle Fire didn't), this becomes an option for me instead of using my phone.
Note that the picture is a little deceiving since it doesn't have an internal battery and the cable for power which is NOT shown is actually needed.
I'd rather buy a real bluetooth headset with controls, mic, etc. but replacable headphones.
http://www.amazon.com/Ericsson-Hi-F...&ie=UTF8&qid=1343307680&sr=1-1&keywords=MW600
You can put any 3,5mm Headphones in this one, mic is buildin.

I still use this to this day! The only other BT headset, also made by Sony Ericsson is the hbh-is800 http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Ericsson...-2&keywords=sony+ericsson+bluetooth+hbh-is800
The Mw600 is great because you can use any set of wired headphones in it to create a bluetooth experience! And the MW600 doubles as a FM receiver. The clip on unit is a bit touchy because it uses touch tech to control the volume, but the play and media controls have dedicated buttons which works.
And dependant on your device you connect it to, you can also see track info on the clip. I use it on my Sensation and it works. The track info didn't work on my old Nexus One but I lived without it.

HBH-IS800 is too pricey, in that category I'd go with an Sony Smart Wireless Pro, also from Sony, but with integrated FM and MP3 Player (you can insert a msdhc card).
But my point was that the MW600 is about ~20 Bucks more and has all the advantaged a real headset brings. Controls (Play/Pause/Track Control/Volume), a Microphone, a Display that shows you caller ID and Playing Track, ..
Picked these up for $20 on Newegg the other day and work great despite having a huge head
Could I put my bog-standard wired headphones into these? The image examples show it being connected externally to a speaker, so I don't know if it has a headphone jack on the receiver.
Would be good if it does, would like to avoid plugging my headphones into the Nexus 7 directly because moving my finger around the screen makes a buzzing noise (interference in the 3.5mm jack from the screen I guess), bluetooth could probably eliminate this.

If you are referring to the SE MW600 then yes! You can put any standard 3.5mm headphones into the MW600. I use my Shure se215's and they are great!
Funny thing is I have the Amaze beats headphones and the Sol Republic Tracks HD, both have controls on the wires. And I plugged both of them in. While the music came through, neither of the headphone's buttons work. The Amaze headphones do not control the volume or anything and neither do the SOL Republic cans-which I kind of knew anyway because they are for "i" devices.
HOWEVER, using the MW600 I can use the bluetooth unit to stop/pause and volume control on it and it doesn't matter what headphones you plug in. Major win there again by the MW600!! :highfive:

Was actually talking about the Belkin receiver, but scratch that, the MW600 makes more sense! The fact it's portable and doesn't need mains power is a bonus too. Will be ordering that, thanks!
edit: I assume it outputs through bluetooth sound from games, video players, etc., and not just music, right?

Just to report back. The answer is YES, bt streaming is for games and movies as well, in the MW600 case anyways .
I have also successfully paired the MW600 with my PS Vita, just as an FYI.
FYI - MW600 will not play while charging, if that matters to you...I have the Creative WP-450 which can play while charging...

I love these, call and music control and comfortable to wear. I usually tether them to my nexus 7 and gnexus to receive calls and listen to music at the same time.

Also, a wireless receiver like the airport express works great . Especially if you are networked. I have an airport express attached to 3 home receivers . 2 with optical and one aux. I can stream to all of them synchronized and even use my computer to control each separately and use the nexus as a remote. Only issue with Bluetooth is you need to be fairly close or in line of sight to make it work reliably.

Got my MW600 today, quite impressed with it, and no buzzing from screen now! Only downside is the audio in MX Player is out of sync by a second, the lip-synch doesn't match with the video, is this easily fixed?

Did you try playing with the different settings? Like software acceleration or HW acceleration?
I honestly haven't watched the transformers movie with dialog to see if the vids and audio synch. I'll have to report back on Monday.

Just tried the Transformers movie, lip-synch is spot on. Guess it's just an isolated issue with MX Player, was worried for a moment it could have been because of wireless latency.
Only got S/W decoding available, probably because I'm playing an SD video? Going to try some alternative players.
Edit: working fine in Dice Player
I bought one of these for use in the car
Bluetooth Audio Receiver
works flawlessly and under $10
I've been using the Jumbl - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GJW1HDM/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Much cheaper than the Sony, much smaller, and streams for 10-12 hours per charge. The only drawback is that it doesn't have built-in FM radio. However I gladly trade that for the miniature size and weight (about the size of a quarter, and the weight of 2-3 quarters) ... Clip slides over the seem at the bottom of a tshirt and is plenty to hold it's tiny weight in place. Can hook it anywhere.

Bluetooth audio transmitter recommendations?

Hi,
I have a rather old Sony hifi at home and I'd like to transmit music wireless to it. My gf has an old iPod (no BT) which I'd like to connect as well.
The thing is I don't know how to achieve that. There are audio transmitters that use 3.5mm stereo jacks like this:
h t t p : / / w w w .e b a y . c o m /itm/Universal-HiFi-Audio-Music-Bluetooth-A2DP-3-5mmStereo-Dongle-Adapter-Transmitter-/261137567697?pt=US_USB_Bluetooth_Adapters_Dongles&hash=item3ccd030fd1"]
I plan to buy 2 of these. Connect one to my audio receiver and the other to the iPod. I then plan to pair my N7100 and the iPod with the transmitter connected to the audio receiver. Would that work? Do these kind of devices work both ways (receive/transmit)? Can I pair such devices with multiple devices to be used at different times?
Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

This is what I have. I would recommend it for your Note II in particular because it supports Apt-X as well as AD2P. Apt-X is a much higher quality codec for Bluetooth audio, and seeing as how you plan to use this with a decent stereo system, I wouldn't skimp out by using a cheapo $10 AD2P adapter...
Thank you for your answer. The one you have seems to be RX only. I know that there are a lot of alternatives for that. I've never heard how apt-x compressed music sounds but I heard of it. I bet the difference would be much greater when listening thru a decent hifi system but I doubt that I'll be able to distinguish it from standard BT compression given the age of the audio receiver I am using.
So my question still remains to be answered. A universal(3.5mm all around) and preferably cheap solution that I can use between 2 audio devices that don't have BT.. a receiving unit which preferably can handle multiple paired devices in different times.. and if possible.. a solution that one has implemented successfully
p.s.: Belkin and Logitech have audio receivers that I can get but for the sending unit I don't know what I should go with since these units are RX only. I see that Ebay carries some RX/TX units which can change transmission mode though I don't know how that is possible...

The HM3000 which I recommended to you is not just RX only. The one you listed is. The HM3000 has a mic for standard phone use TX/RX use.
The product you listed, only receives BT audio from one device, and outputs that audio to a 3.5mm jack. Nothing else.
The HM3000 can pair with multiple devices (but only playback from one at a time).
Even though the 3.5mm jack on the HM3000 is a female connector, you can change that really easily with one of these, or something similar.
If I've got Bluetooth audio in my car, but no a2dp (voice calls only), would one of those work? U guys seem to know what you're talking about in here.

hi
can the hm3000 skip tracks with music?
AptX is the only way to go. Don't bother with any cheaper ones that don't have this codec. You can tell the difference EVEN through really bad ear buds, nevermind speakers.
Avantree Saturn supports both tx and rx. Or above mentioned are fine also

I have a QED uPlay Puck plugged into my Hi-Fi (I'm too new to post URLs here, sorry).
It's mains powered and Rx only, so would be no good for a car, but might fit the OP's needs. It supports multiple devices - I've paired it with my desktop and laptop (both using plain old SBC compression) and my Note II (apt-X), and I can switch between the three seamlessly (disconnect Bluetooth on one device and connect it on another).
Sound quality is great, especially from the Note II (I use with with Spotify's "Extreme Quality" streaming setting).
If you wanted to connect an iPod, you can get apt-X adapters for those too. Sennheiser make a fairly decent one called the BTD 300i.
Hope that helps

[Q] Help | Use old earphones on Xperia Z1

Hi. I heard that any kind of old earphones don`t work on Xperia Z1, Unfortunately. So, I`m looking for advice about using my Xperia Arc`s earphone.
The wiring swapped to be the same as on the iPhone I believe, perhaps back with the Xperia S onwards.
You might be able to get an adapter, but I'd suggest just getting new earphones unless you're really attached to the ones on the Arc!
All normal "3 pin" earphones work just fine (except for a little bit of static noise for a few seconds after plugging in). There will be problems with old headsets though.
Headsets must comply to the new CTIA headset standard!

I should have added that normal headphones are okay, it's anything with a mic or control buttons (e.g. call/end).
