Kinivo BTH220 Bluetooth Headphones NOT Compatible? - Nexus 10 Accessories

Weird, my Nexus 10 can't find the Kinivo BTH220. These are very popular, inexpensive bluetooth cans. From Amazon reviews they are reported to work with Nexus 7. Anyone else have problems? I'm stock for now on the Nexus 10.

Tried to pair my Kinivo BTH220's as well - same issue. Doesn't find them. I'm too much of a noob to offer a solution but wanted you to know you're not alone with this question. Wonder what's going on with the N10, they work perfectly with my phone...

Don't know enough about Bluetooth. Possible the N10 doesn't have the right frequency or radio to support these headphones?

Incompatible bluetooth stack?

Oh No...this is not compatible with Google Nexus 1.
OMG. Is this headphone not compatible with Android devices?
My google nexus one (rooted) is not able to discover the headphone at all.
Is this headphone only working for Apple products and Windows 7?
On the manual, it should work with Android devices though.

I'm hijacking this thread since I searched the forum for bth220, but my kinovo's aren't working on my HTC One X+. Can pair with my car.

Hmm, not sure what's going on, but I have those headphones and they work great on my nexus 10.

I found this from a review on Amazon: ... I contacted Kinivo when I had some difficulty pairing the headphones with my Nexus 10. It turns out the pairing difficulty was my fault (I was making the Nexus 10 bluetooth visible to devices but forgot to also have it search for devices). Kinivo responded almost immediately and walked me through the correct setup. Bottom line, buy the Kinivo product, you won't be disappointed!
Update: I tried again with Nexus 10 and paired ok. I'm not sure what the problem was.

I used it with my GS3 just this morning. Try this. Turn off the headphones. Enable bluetooth on the phone. Hold down the power button on headphones for 10 seconds or so until the lights flash. On the phone scan for new bluetooth devices. It should pair.

How is the sound quality with the s3 ?

I have these headphones and they work fine on my Nexus 10. I also have the newer model the 240 and they also work fine...

It just ok. Cuts out occasionally when not fully charged. I still use with an S3.

These headphones are great. I have 2 sets, one at work and one at home. The company is awesome too. A friend of mine had a pair crap out on him and Kinivo sent him a replacement free of charge and didn't even ask for the old ones back.

I just ordered one of these.It has endless possibilities for use with Bluetooth devices like my Nexus 7.
I think you should have mentioned that this is a speaker in the thread name. Just a suggestion.

It's not a speaker. It's an adapter for a speaker.

It is NOT a speaker, it is a Bluetooth adapter that allows you to connect any powered speakers. Great to wirelessly connected your stereo system to your N7 or other Bluetooth device to play music.
Oh, yeah you are right but still it should have mentioned "speaker adapter".

Monster clarity HD - paired but no sound

I had this happen when I first tried to pair it. I had to pair it then unpair it. It will eventually pair properly. Sorry for the not so technical advice, but it's what I did to get it to work.
Will try it again now.
Edit: I have found that turning on the speakers before turning on Bluetooth to be key.

I totally forgot i got one from that bestbuy buy a zte android phone and get the speaker free 50 dollar bundle
so it works with nexus 7?
can i pair with more than one bluetooth device at a time?
I've got the Monster Clarity HD, and had no trouble whatsoever pairing it with my Nexus 7 16GB. (I do also run an audio booster - SpeakerBoost - at +35%.)
I just picked up the Clarity HD and it paired the first time with my Nexus 7. But one thing I noticed was that there is a noticeable delay when playing games (about 1 second) but not when I am playing videos. Is this a JB issue? Or something else?

[Q] Plantronic Backbeat Go

For those having difficulty, make sure your other devices have BT switched off just to be sure there's no confusion as to what it's connecting to, might help.

This is what I was going to say. If the headset is connected to your phone, you won't be able to pair it with your tablet. Also make sure your tablet isn't connected to anything else.
Other than that, I've been using my Plantronics Backbeat 903+ Stereo Headset with my N7, and it's working well. I was actually looking at the Backbeat Go as an "upgrade" (with half the battery life)... how do you like the headset in general?
good luck,
Billy
Thanks all the replies. I have my Backbeat Go works with my N7 now. It was connected to my Galaxy Note and thats why failed.
The Backbeat Go is nice while i can watching movies on my N7 without a toublesome wire connecting. The sound quality is good as a bluetooth headset and its better then MW600 to me.

Earphones compatibility discussion

Making a list of headphones with remote button working on OB
(the remote button functions 100%, or the sound from the earbuds are as they should)
Some earphones are incompatible, or partially with our phone (remote button not working or sound is really messed up or no sound at all) probably due to the type of connector used on the headphone 3.5 jack (2-pin to 4-pin)
a-JAYS One+ - working
Philips Citiscape Underground - unknown
Philips SHE9005A - working
Samsung Stock Earphones - working
VIBE BlackAir - unknown
Beats Solo HD - working (partially)
Apple Headset - working (partially)
you tell us if yours work fine
So no reply? (
Maybe someone can share if they use a headphone (from sennheiser, philips, any brand) with 1 remote button for answering call/pause/resume music and confirm if their earphones work alright..

Thanks for your answer! Also I was wondering if headphones with more than a remote control actually uses 4-pin, 1 remote button uses 3-pin and no button uses 2-pins...
Do you think it is true?

Well, the sound is an individual thing.Someone likes more bass, someone more clarity, someone a flat sound and so on.But I agree that you cannot trust some other's ears.Especially old people as your dad is and I am.

But the big question for me is is there any headset with media buttons that works on the OB ?

Pioneer AppRadio2 and ARLiberator. Any Experience?

I recently ordered a Pioneer AppRadio2 and have ARLiberator installed on my Note II. Waiting for the radio to come in from Amazon.
Does anyone have experience with the AppRadio with the ARLiberator on the Note II?
How does it run? Is it smooth? Is it worth it?
Thanks!:good:
I have this combo and it is excellent. Pioneer should be paying the dev of arliberator as it is way better than the garbage that pioneer offers!

I installed the brake bypass... worth the 15-20 dollars.. otherwise you have to toggle the ebrake for video. Simple 3 wire connection

For some reason, I left my brake wire unconnected and it works just fine without any warnings when I hook up my phone either immediately before or after the Head Unit turns on. However, if i were to hook up my phone some time after the AppRadio has been turned on, then it will show me the warning screen. So I left it unconnected and just hook up my phone immediately. My AppRadio 2 is a US version too.

Oh, one other thing is I have to have ARLiberator and Bluetooth ready for a connection as well.
Have a new gs3 and i rooted it. I will download ARLIberator once the head unit see the phone. Bought the android pieoner cable, had cable installed by BestBuy (which is where i bought the head unit and had it install by them) and then went and bout gs3 cause of all the reviews. Only thing that works is my phone charging, unit do see phone. Any help would be great..

Go to samsung site or newegg and buy the 5 to 11 pin mhl adapter. Don't buy from ebay as you may get a fake unit and end up with snow issues.
S3 and note 2 needs 11 pin and the pioneer android kit uses 5 pin mhl.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Or just return that pioneer cable which costs way too much and just buy the Samsung 11 pin mhl adapter and any hdmi cable. It's way cheaper and you can get the official Samsung adapter from the Samsung site with the 50% coupon.
the pioneer kit doesn't work with the s3 is cause its a 5 pin when the s3 needs an 11 pin.
Thank u for reply. My pioneer cord is already install and i got it for $35 off Amazon. Do u have a link for the adaptor? With that adaptor my phone will work and charge at same time? Also wondering what a tasker app does and which one do i download? I heard that the tasker will do everything once phone is plugged in and turn off screen too. I plan on plugging in and putting phone in compartment out of site. Again thank you for taking time to answer the other questions and now these if u can..

Its currently out of stock though.. try checking samsung site for the same item.
As for tasker, im using it but it didn't work too well with turning the screen off. Once in a while the screen turns on. Other tasks work ok tho.
You can try downloading tasker and screen off apps and search around how to use tasker to toggle screen off.

Boo, my bh-8400bt doesn't have a hdmi port in the back I believe, but it does support app radio capabilities on iOS.
30 more then I planned but if it really works. Wish i had known about it, could have saved me 30 by not ordering pioneer android cable...
