Which bluetooth headset with Streak for absolutely no drop out and clarity?

Thinking of getting a streak.
Been through so dang many of the bluetooth devices and have noticed that some work better with particular phones. What are you using with YOUR streak and does it drop out or give/not-give great clarity?

for MINE, I have no issues with my Jawbone ICON headset. I have a ATT Streak with the O2 2.1 update in Atlanta.

plantronics 975 - hands down the best headset for the streak or pretty much any phone.....no static....great battery life....

My Jawbone Icon is also working great with the US 1.6 version. My only gripe is that when I enable the BT I still have to set the device options to use the phone audio. Otherwise it works great.

Mine stays checked so I have no need to go there each time I pair up.

My jawbone works as soon as I turn the bluetooth on.
What I want to is direct all sounds to my Jawbone.
IE: ringtones, music, ect...how can I do that?

I use one of these:

They are awesome for music and cheap as chips! I have my phone in a pouch around my waist while I'm in the gym and the music is proper clear. I actually stuggled using these with my HD2 as whenever something gets inbetween the right ear piece and the phone, or the top part of the phone was covered at all, everything would start to brake up, but it's working wonderfully with the Streak. Not really used them for phone calls but think they were alright when I did.

+1 Jawbone Icon
in order to allow all sounds to the icon, you have to enable it through an update to the firmware. however, note that it will move ALL sounds - (GPS included)
do that on the jawbones website (never remember the manufacturer)

I've just bought one of these:

verdict?
Brilliant. Calls come in clear. There may be better ones, but it's doing the job good. Music streaming? Sometimes a quarter of a secound pause, not bothering me at all, keeps me awake
the most brilliant thing about it? It has a built in FM radio. So the dell streak has not an FM radio, but this BT headset can compromise for it, altough you can not save a channel, just tune and listen, no problem for me either. It does remember your last listened radio station, just no presets.
Few other things.
Accept calls from the BT headset, ok.
Skip, play and pause tracks, ok.
Adjust volume, ok.
Works with Rockplayer, youtube etc, ok.
downside, does not show track info on the oled screen.
it plays nicely with my bt watch. ie, my watch vibrates and can see who is calling me and I can just take the call with the headset.
So far, pretty amazing. I must confess, I am not an audiophilic, just occasionaly listen to music, but i can say that music output is ok. btw, the bluetooth module has a 3.5m audio jack, so you can plug your own earbuds into it, the mic is on the bt module as well.
I've bought mine for a mearly 45 euro's.

Hello hyellow,
Are you able to stream the FM radio using this device to the speakers of the Dell Streak? Is it possible to use the device as a FM receiver and the Streak as output of the audio?

Any one else getting drop out on 2.1? I have a jabra bluetooth dog tag that worked fine on 1.6 and the 2.1 betas but now drops out for about half a second approximately every 5-10mins

Hi all,
Like others for just voice calls i am using one of the earlier Jawbones not sure which one it is though and for Music and Voice I'm using a Nokia BH-500 Bluetooth Headset with a pair of Shure EC2g's and the sound is nothing short of stunning with no drop outs or stutters at all also all the controls on it work perfectly with the Streak.

Blueant Q2 - Phone book and Bluetooth Voice dial
Using a Blueant Q2. Loads the phone book into the headset and announces who is calling if they are in your phonebook. Also works for Bluetooth voice dialing. Press the button, say Phone commands and it activates the Nuance Voice Control through the headset. Running Streak Stock Firmware 1.6.
Sounds great and I can go close to 50-60 feet before it loses the signal.

Bluetooth headset

I tried to use my Sony Ericsson headset with my NS, it paired and connected and worked for calling but the thing is after I disconnect the headset when I don't need it I can't just connect to it again but I have to do the pairing process again. Anyone has been using a BT headset with this phone?

no problem using Jabra BT8010
plays music just fine
automatically switches from phone to music and back to music when the call is over
same working fine for car Clarion CZ509

I have paired my old Sony Ericsson HBH-DS980 and the new MW600 stereo headsets for music and calls. both worked fine during the first pairing process. however Nexus S did not recognize MW600 after couple of days, may be it got confused with my old and new bluetooth signatures. so i made a backup of my phone and did a factory reset and started using MW600 with just pairing it once. its working fine without any problem. btw which headset (model) are you using?
P.S.
the stock music player sucks big time in nexus, i use PowerAmp app for my music needs and its awesome!!

I did factory reset because of the restart issue during an active calls and now the BT headset working fine. I use HBH-PV720 , not stereo so I don't use it to listen to music anyway

I've been using a BlueAnt T1 and encountered no pairing issues. Very good headset so far. I really like the fact it has A2DP support so I can listen to podcasts, radio stations, etc. while still retaining a professional look than wearing one of those stereo headsets.

I'll get one of these when my Jabra BT8010 dies
and the BlueAnt T1 comes with an Android app to configure it
... that's very thoughtful of the accessories maker

Sonorix C3
I am currently having problems with a new Sonorix C3. Doesn't seem to hold the connection to the phone consistently, and when the connection drops it just turns off after a few seconds unless you connect to it from the phone. I emailed the manufacturer, but it looks like it will be a while before they can debug the issue.

Great BT Device for Calls / Music

Sony Ericsson Hi-Fi Bluetooth Stereo Headset with FM Radio
I've had this Bluetooth Device for a few days now, and it's perfect for my Tab. Caller ID, Stream Music from Tab.

Call quality is above average, no echo, no background noise. Music controls right on the headset, large caller ID / info screen.

Looks interesting. Does it work with video calls on the Tab?

Not sure, I'll test it out and get back to ya.

I have owned this particular Bluetooth device for about 6months, and its audio quality and range are unbelievable! Only cons I can think of are... it doesn't display the name of the caller on the caller id, only the #, and it is really hard to find a set of replacement OEM headphones (hpm-70)(my cat destroyed the set that came with it), on the plus side any normal (3.5mm connection) headphones will work, you just have to deal with a long cord (the set it comes with are VERY short on purpose). Never been happier with a bluetooth device of any kind.

Iv been using this with the gt for four months now, Im really satisfied. After some small changes in Bluetooth audio config file it works well with both music and in call..

well since i use the bt headset for calls so i dont hold bulky tab in my hands. I use the cheapo 15$ nokia bh105. Works on any device even ps3. Music media and video. I still stick to a strong sturdy wired headphones.

I don't have the BT device mentioned, but I can attest to the audio quality of Sony BT headsets. I had a BT20NX previously, the build-quality wasn't too great; the cable came loose after about a year or two of use but the audio was pretty astounding being bluetooth and all. My key liking of it was the level of bass it provided, and that it worked with all my devices from mobile phone to PC without a hitch.
Now using a Jabra BT3030, bass is weak similar to the Plantronics I had previously. Quite disappointing since my main use of a BT headset is for music.

I have the mw600 and have paired them with my galaxy s and work fantastically. Though I have tried to connect to the galaxy tab but keep having issues like it wont show up in the scanning area.

Hi,
Is it possible to use the BT Headset (paired with the Tab) as Mic and the Line-Out of the Tab as Out?
Thanks,
Sam

No, it isn't.

Anybody can confirm me that I can use the Tab stock earpiece and this? I kindof don't like the thing to be clipped at my shirt or something. I don't mind the loss is quality if using the stock earpiece tho'.

You can use any 3.5" jack connector ear piece with the MW600, only thing is that the mic is on the tiny device, right next to the answer button. means you need to clip it on your shirt while talking.

So the stock earpiece mic won't work?

Not the mic, but ear pieces will.

love this bluetooth
Im also using a mw600 for almost a month now with my Tab, dell streak and HD2, its quality and performance is truely great! I didnt use the stock earphones that came with it, instead I use my Beats Studio by Dr Dre. And wow! Sound quality is still awesome! No difference when I was using my Dre's in a cable, I am really amaze.
Best range ever on bluetooth devices. Goes through walls and sound quality is still great.
what else can I say, its a worth purchase.

Does the mw600 display caller names or only phone numbers?

This might be what I was looking for.
T-Mobile tab running latest Overcome

yeah. i am using the MW600 too. great BT headset. Can even connect 2 devices at one time. I use it for listening mp3 on my GT and the other connection for answering call from my iphone.

I love this BT as well. Best BT sound quality I've ever heard. I didn't like the cable on the included headset, although the sound was great and the earpieces are really confortable. I bought a pair of $20 earbuds and cut and resoldered the cables myself, now I've got a pair of earbuds with a 1' cord, and it clips to my shirt collar. No more tangles, or excess cable! Perfect!

Bluetooth earpiece + caller id

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can recommend a Bluetooth earpiece with a small LCD that would enable me to see the caller's name when receiving a call and to scroll through my contacts' list for making a call.
Thanks!!

bluetooth stereo calerID for hd2
Hi I use SonyEricsson MW600. it is bluetooth, it have led display calerID which works, also it have radio and minijack port so you can use your own headphones (mic is in device). Only thing is issue with bad quality sound but it can be done by corecting registry walue responsible for coding data. it is a HD2 issue. this device is not supported with hd2. but the best i think. and quite cheap.

Thanks for the advice. The MW600 seems to have 2 headphones connected into it - can it be put directly in the ear without the headphones?
I am looking for something smaller similar to the LG 210 :

Small and easy to put into the ear because I really don't want to carry a pair of headphones with me when using the bluetooth earpiece. Do you have any other recommendation?

I have an old Jabra BT8010, which was really nice cause you could attach the 2nd earpiece to use as stereo headphones, too. It also would vibrate when calls came in, which was cool.
Recently I've been looking for an new headset with caller ID that can also be used as stereo headphones, and I'm planning on buying a Sonorix C3... great reviews on amazon, and you can use your own headphones with it, or even hook a speaker up to it. It's very nice looking, too. http://www.amazon.com/Sonorix-Bluetooth-Headset-Removable-Earphones/dp/B000V1UGZ2/ref=cm_cr_pr_pb_t

It seems the Jabra uses headphones also...I am looking for one that does not need a headphone. Does such type of bluetooth caller id device exist? I've made some search but without any luck since I have stumbled on many that need a pair of headphone to function.

The BT8010 doesn't need the other headphone attached to work. You can use just the one earpiece with caller id. It even has vibrate function when recieving call and you can make calls from it without touching your phone.
I think they have another headset with caller ID with the option of adding another earpiece for music... I think its the Jabra BT800 or something like that.
Also, the sonorix clip I had a link to can be used with just one earpiece plugged in if you wanted.

I know this is an old thread... but it asks for exactly what I am looking for.
IE a bluetooth headset that has caller ID - but plugs straight into the ear as opposed to via headphone link.
It should be able to scroll through recent calls to dial through.
Has anybody comeacross anything like this?

No media audio out after incoming phone call

I'm running regular Android 12 (SP2A.220405.003). Since the April 2022 security update I've noticed that when media is play and I receive an incoming phone call (whether I answer or not) the media will continue playing after the call but will have no audio out on Bluetooth or USB. The phone speaker still will play audio through. Additional calls in/out with BT or USB have no issues. With troubleshooting it seems to be the handoff between the phone and media is not occuring, and only a device restart will correct the issue. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Really not enough information here to hazard a guess. Is this across multiple devices or just one? Is this your car or a bt speaker? Is it the car's head unit or a bt device connected to the car via aux cord. What type of bt device? What make/model bt speaker/headset? In my case I use three different bt speakers and in my car a cheap TP Link bt 4.1 receiver. Handoff on all of them seems to work ok.
Have you tried resetting your network settings (reset wifi, mobile & bt)? Also try the "reset app preferences" option right below it. If you have been jacking around with bt settings in dev options you may have to try a dirty flash to straighten things out. If not BL unlocked, flash a full OTA image from recovery via adb.

I have the same exact issue Philo. Just started, super annoying. As described above, I'll have my phone connected via Bluetooth to my car or headset listening to a podcast, music, etc., and a call with come in. The call audio switches over just fine, but after I'm done with the call the phone won't switch back to the music or podcast audio. Disconnects and reconnects won't solve it. I have to reboot the phone or re-pare Super annoying. I actually get a second volume bar now too. (screenshot)
