Headset - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General

HI there,
Has anyone modded their headset to fit decent headphones??? IF not can anyone recommend a good sounding bluetooth headset or an adapter so you can plug your own headphones in yet retain mic functionality.
Ade

I'm getting a set of Jabra BT8010's.

Got the jabra bt8010, and is excellent with our device. The caller ID is a god send, works a treat. However the named contact are limited to only 30 names. Performance using A2DP is very good. Range and performance and reliability are excellent compared to previously tested devices. I got mine from Amazon for around £66 delivered.

Have you tried JetWare FreeHand Ext? Did it work?

we all know the Advantage doesnt have the vibrating function..how can you replace it when your phone is on silent? what are th eothe roptions? Is this Jabra BT a good enough temporary option?
thanks.

If you are looking for ultimate sound like me, then you should always use a wire headset

I have wired Sennheisers as they are fantastic quality, but I also bought the Jabra 8010 for it's caller ID, vibrate function and phonebook. The quality of the sound in stereo headset mode is not fantastic, but easily as good as the usual wired solutions you get with HTC phones. It's just if you're used to Sennheisers, you're a bit spoilt and nothing else seems as good. I am still waiting for a stereo BT headset with phone functionality but bass-enhancing Sennheiser style earpieces, though.

I am using ACS T2i for my music headset (you might not know this). And for answering the call, i have iTech Clip D which has caller ID. They work together smoothly. If you have the wired headphone plug in, you can still answer the call from your Bluetooth headset.

I notice that itech do one call the s38, its the same as the clip d but has a 3.5mm jack so you can use your own headphones. THs that this might bethe way forward. Definately worth investigating

it's not the same, there are lots of iTech headphone and they all look the same, the clip D has an external LCD so you can display caller ID. s38 don't have external LCD, but it has media control

Roll on the A2DP update. Anyone seen them cheaper?
Be aware that I owned a set of these breifly and they do not activate Voice Dialing... So cannot be used with voice command.
The highly informative comment I got from Bluetake support was
Sorry, the BT450Rx don't support voice dialing function.
Click to expand...

And it took them 2 weeks to come up with that helpful statement!
If anyone finds some nice stereo BT headphones which support A2DP and still activate voice dialing do let me know!
Otherwise I did really like the BT450Rx...
I'm looking at getting some headphones, so far I'm inclined to get either
i-Tech BlueBAND Bluetooth Stereo Headphones or Motorola HT820
Any opinions on both of these would be appreciated (positive / negative) as I'm hoping to do the purchase this weekend :?
I have the HT820's, though of course they don't quite work fully with the Universal (no A2DP), but work fine as a normal headset. I just listen to music with the cable, which is a useful intermediary option.
The sound from the headphones is not too bad, many ppl say that in A2DP mode it's rather quiet, but wired, it's more than adequate. The one bad thing about them, though, is long term comfort. After about an hour, they pinch the ears a little too much, but you can shift their position every now and then and it's not too bad.

Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 and Wizard friends or foes?

Hi
I´m thinking of buying the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 bluethooth headset for my qtek9100 (Wizard) and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this headset.
The things I want from it is:
1. play music of course, I use Mortplayer or PocketMusic for my music now but i can change if none of those work.
2. Change tracks and see the song playing in the dispaly
3. Recive calls and see who is calling in the display.
4. Watch video and get auido in headset, use TCMP here but again I can change if neccesary.
I know that the headset supports both A2DP and AVRCP but I would like to know if anyone tested this with the wizard. The headset is pretty pricey (about 900 SEK or 94 euro here in Sweden) so I want to make sure its all it says it is and that it works.
My other option is the RClip35 from itech which seems pretty sweet aswell, anyone tried that one?
Thanks

I've got one, using it with my Qtek 9100 with the "Mr Clean" ROM and it works great. Sound quality is excellent, the ear buds appear to be the same as Sony's high end ones (which I'm using with my iPod) and the head set build quality is high.
I can definitely recommend it for the 9100.

Ugh, forgot to say that it does not have caller ID. The remote control function works with WMP but not with TCPMP. Those are the only media players I've tested.

Is that so? I just checked at a reseller and saw this (translated from swedish)
Bluetooth Stereo Headset with display that has support for Caller ID and also see what song is played.
Bluetooth version 2.O with A2DP protokoll (Stream sound in Stereo) and Digital Signal Protokoll) which means improved sound quality.
So I´m pussled..true or false?
Also, looking at pictures of this one, from what I can see it has many wires, only difference to the one that comes in the package with the Qtek9100 is the wire to the phone of corse, don´t you find this a bit annoying?
Thinking of buying one myself and I have today a HBH-610 that can´t do A2DP sadly BUT it´s just one thingy on the ear and that´s it...oh well guess I have to scarifice that if I wan´t A2DP which I do...

Argh. It DOES do Caller ID. The display is so tiny that I guess I assumed it would not display the caller ID.
Makes this headset even better!

Thanks for the replys guys, I think now I will go ahead and buy one when I get enough cash.
One additional question: Does it have a ring speaker och vibrate function?
I'm thinking of a scenario when you have the phone in a pocket or bag and have the clip on your shirt but the earbuds not in your ears and the phone rings, is it possible to hear it or do you have to have the buds pluged in?
Here's a link to the headset and the lowest prices (for Sweden)

It does not vibrate but it plays the ring tone - and it's audible when just hanging around the neck unless the environment is really noisy.
The phone rings too, of course.
I´ll buy this one also soon, thx for the recommendations/explanations.
/fahlis
I bought one of these last week and agree that the sound quality is excellent. I expected some background Bluetooth-style hiss but I can't hear any.
£70 may be a bit steep, but I think they are worth it.
For me, I always dock my Wizard in a cradle at work, which blocks the phono jack. So these fix that problem. Now I can also carry my Wizard wherever on my person I choose and not have to worry about wires.
And the real benefit is, when docked, I use Raspberry Software's True Connect, so I can control my Wizard with my mouse (excellent software), so even without A2DRP (something like that) I can still change my music at my desk.
The actual bluetooth part is really light and you don't knotice it round your next, most people probably think it's just an MP3 player, albeit a small one.
Highly recommended by me.
Hi Guys,
got this tiny little toy too, sound is good, but some questions are still unanswered:
Songs aren´t display in the sceen of the Sony remote control, any chance to get this thing to work?
I would love it to use an other Player than this f*cking MediaPlayer, but with other Player the Buttons won´t work.....
Any idea?
What about the range?
Hi all,
What are your experiences with respect to the range of this headset, when used in combination with the Wizard? I'm fairly disappointed in that area: As soon as I move the wizard from the 'line of sight' of the headset, the audio feed breaks up. This means that I won't be able to stash my phone in my backpack for example.
regards,
dafit
@Dafit:
I only keep it in my jeans front pocket, or my Suit Jacket inner pocket, so no problems there. However I have noticed it doesn't seem to cope well if it's not in line of sight. I held my Qizard behind my back and it cut out.
So that's one downside. Quite big if you want to keep it in your bag...
@Whumpscut:
Agreed with the songs suggestion, would be nice. As for other Media Players. Have heard mention that TCPMP might allow control via the Bluetooth, but I've tried it and it wouldn't work.
There's also an update coming out sometime soon from Conduit the makers of Pocket Player that will do this. See their forum for details.
Hi Nooner,
I just got my headset this morning and been testing it for a while. I notice that music playback after a call doesn't work even though the music is still playing but just no sound is coming from the headset. Just wonder whether have you experience this problem b4. I am having a O2 wizard with the lastest rom. Thanks

I don't have that problem, as nobody ever rings me :lol:
I have heard this as a problem. But joking aside, I've only had my headphones for about 5 days and usually only listen at work or to and from work (via the tube/underground), which is when I don't really receive calls.
But I've heard this reported. Don't know if it's the headphones or a problem with A2DP.
Thanks for the reply. I will try and search the forum and see. Will report back if I found anything.
In this user review he mentions the same problem http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=7463154#post7463154 Maybe its because of the A2DP patch but I dont have the problem with a Nokia HS-12W or Itech Clip S.
Yes is exactly the same problem. But seems like no one has a solution for it so far.
Hi efjay,
Just wonder what do you think about the nokia hs12w. Do you have any problem with it at all or it just works fine with the phone. Cause I am thinking of returning the sony n get something else.
I just ordered mine. Will be here on Monday :lol:
Can't wait.
[edit]
Damn it. They just called and said it's on "national backorder"
Must find one....

Have a look in this thread for opinions on the Nokia http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=48290
I myself think its good, solid build, large display, clear sound and the radio is an added bonus.

For those using the Athena as a primary phone

I am not. But, in the event I want to, I just bought this, the LG Style-i bluetooth 'mini-handset"(see link below), and, it works very nicely with the Athena. It has good sound, and the dialpad works well, and is extremely convenient. As is the incoming caller ID. And it is light, thin, and clips to a pocket nicely. It pairs easily, and stayed paired even when the Athena went into hibernation mode. It's perfect for use with the Athena.
I suggest it, for the potential $50 one can find it for on E-Bay (like I did).
It really is a pretty useless device, for anything else except the Athena! For any other phone, it's, well, like getting your dog a dog.
http://reviews.cnet.com/LG_Style_i/4505-1_7-31826853.html?tag=viddet
Yes, I was very tempted to get this, but I may as well carry a second phone...
Also, its like $45 post to UK, and i refuse to pay that. Its not really that expensive. I posted a repaired Universal back to the USA once for less than $20 in its box with all accessories!
I just ordered clip style bt headset with Stereo 3.5mm headphone jack. I listen to music a lot on the Athena and the style-i is no use for that.
I may still end up getting a Style-I if i can find one for a sensible price, it looks quite cool. Recently ive been answering the Athena on speakerphone with no BT headset. If you turn the volume down you can hold it to your ear like the older HTC phones. Only real problem is the giggles you get from surrounding people.
Well, the big advantage of the Style-i is the dial pad and caller ID. Makes for use like a real phone. And, it's tiny. Only con is there's no "+". You need to use 00 or 011, depending where you are to dial internaitonally.
I like it..r u using it now...can u inform how easy is the dial function?
Also does the contact list can be accessed?If u can throw more light,it will b nice..

Which headset have you gone for. I'm thinking of ordering something similar for convenience. I'd appreciate hearing how you get on with yours.
I'm using the Jabra BT8010 and it has really made my Ameo work like a real phone in that I can leave it in my bag/briefcase and just have the headset in my pocket which vibrates and tells me who's calling. I know loads of headsets do this, but it also has an extra earphone so you can listen to music as well. Genius!

Mee too using Jabra BT8010. Overall it's a good headset, the best perhaps. Only one minor thing is that it can't show contacts from my Dopod U1000. Just very annoying about that.

The good thing about Jabra BT8010 is it has external screen and also you listen to music with it. My suggestion is if you only want one headset to do all this and don't really mind the sound quality, then Jabra is your best choose.
For other people who care about sound quality and want to use their own headset to listen music, then iTech clip D is not a bad choice too, I am using it at the moment, it also has external LCD screen and it display contact name correctly, so when someone call, you actually see their name on the screen.
No doubt these are the two best option out there for Athena.
But,none of these others have a dial pad, for making a call,correct?

The way I figured it was: Start price on most seems to be $34. BIN is $60-something.
$-£ is so good right now, I'll swallow the $45 shipping if I get it for the start price.
And that's exactly what happened, because so many are listed people think the same way.
So - £40. Shipped.
Find me a Bluetooth headset in the UK for £40 delivered to your door that does what the Style-i appears to do (I don't have mine yet, probably next week I'll get it or later this week!).
I have one to!
I have one of the Style i handsets, it is a good little device. Makes whipping your phone out of your pocket a thing of the past!
Ive found that 99% of the time it pairs instantly. Also the voice commands work well too, for the lazy people out there!
The Style i works really well as a phone, you can either dial using the handset, or call a contact via the phone and it diverts through the handset.
I would say that the only annoying thing is remembering to take it everywhere along with my phone! (left it in my jacket pocket which i dont wear for work!) Oh well, not a major issue, just another piece of hardware to take with me.
Overall i'd say its a very good alternative for people wanting to use the phone side of the Ameo.
Got mine today! So - bought 4th May from the US, arrived 8th May signed-for delivery. That's pretty impressive. According to the receipt their actual postage costs are $24.80 for that service, so $20 - £10 - for eBay fees, time to pick and post the item (US Postal Service, if they use post offices then these usually involve a drive out and a wait, during business hours, even if they are using online payment/postage label printing facilities from eBay).
I don't think their postage charges are entirely unreasonable.
The device itself seems great - does exactly what I hoped it would do. Admittedly it's Yet Another Gadget to keep charged and try not to lose (I lost my original HBH-35 headset, and I was annoyed because it was really comfortable and reliable). I'll still use my BSH-100 headphones (or get better ones) for music and so forth, but this makes the Ameo totally useful as a phone - and given the rates T-Mobile give you for minutes, NOT using the Ameo as a phone is a bit of a waste!
Well, I really would get the Style-I £40 isnt so bad, but I want stereo. I dont want to have two headsets. (style-I + stereo headset)
I ordered the iTech R35 clip headset. It has Media controls for volume/track skip/play pause as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack. This means I can use standard headphones as well as still get all the BT calling benefits. Im looking for a nice pair of minidisk headphones now (they have extra short leads) to use with it. Ill let you know how I get on with it when it arrives.
I have the Plantronics Pulsar 590A headset, this is amazing. It has to be the best headset solution ive come across so far. The sound is great and it works for calls so well. Swapping between calls and music is easy and the buttons work without having to fiddle for ages. I would be using this every day if it wasnt for the fact that the charger socket has broken and I cant get them to charge The addition of a Bluetooth transmitter for my iPod makes it so usefull. I can even plug the transmitter into my PSP/DS etc and game while still able to take calls.
I bought a cheap I-Wing stereo headset from Maplin UK for £30. This works well, is very compact and apart from reasonably poor bass (not unexpected) its an ok solution. Easily pocketable and not too obtrusive when left around the neck.
I rate the Plantronics as the best ive used, but not entirely practicle for all day at work due to the size and the fact you look like a DJ with them round your neck.

One of the most important feature of BT8010 is that it can vibrate. Really a perfect match when used with Athena.

it all depends on how much degree of music listening you want to go, personally, i care very much for the music listening experience, anything wireless sounds bad in my ear, and yes i can notice the different easily. This all depends on different people.
However i do agree that Jabra BT8010 is a good BT headset, btw, have you guys manage to show Name ID on the screen now?

No I haven't managed to show Name ID on the screen.

wow, another thing we have in common, i pair my ACS with Super Macro LE
nice little amp.
btw, since you are using your amp on Athena, do you mind telling me what cable you use to connect them? I am having problems with my old cable, it doesn't lock inside the Athena jack that well

One question before buying

Yes -- I have used the Motorola S9 (now broken) and the Jabra BT8010. Sounds good with both. Go for it.
hi there
i use it with my sony hbh ds970.
the only issues are:
would love it to be louder
and it doesnt display the caller name or song on the headset led.
over all the quality is good though.
hope this helps.

Any louder and mine would burst my eardrums! Are you sure yours is the genuine item? I've heard there are fakes arround which aren't as loud.
Or do you just like your music VERY loud?
ive tryed 3 bluetooth stereo headphones now, none of them where loud enough. my last set plantronics are ok, but you just cant beat the quality of a wired set. IMHO
And AMEO/ATHENA could use a plain wired bose headset : 99 euro the in-ear, but you can use also the noise cancelling ones ....
I assume that my hbh's are real given that i purchased them from an orange store (at 40% more than expansis- my fault for being impatient I guess).
the supplied headset is akin to something you would find in a cracker. my b&o A8 headphones sound great but i want auto switching between calls and music hence the sony option..
can any one suggest a bluetooth tranceiver with caller id (that works with wm6), built in mike and media player controls that allow me to use my own headphones?
oh... and by the way i do like loud music but my bt headset is significantly quieter.
cheers

You might consider the Jabra BT8010 which can function either way.

Hi IN,
does your HBH-DS970 vibrate at all? Mine doesn't and I can't find info on how to set it to vibrate mode. If it doesn't vibrate then this headset and its retarded sister (HBH-DS980, which I bought) are the dumbest headsets that have ever been built. They don't VIBRATE!!! So the only way to get call notification is to wear the ear pieces all the time. If you're thinking of buying it for your Athena, save yourself the trouble. DON'T!!!!!!! I'm returning it to Fry's Electronics after work today. Too bad as they are soo stylish. But then it's common for hot looking guys/girls to have no brains..... and hot looking electronics to have important functions missing!!!
hi there
nope mine doesn't vibrate but then to be fair I purchased in knowing that it doesn't.
there is a bluetooth watch (thingy) that will eventually be compatible with wm phones that will vibrate (not the sony/fosil ones). I will post back once it reaches market.
In an ideal world I would love a remote bluetooth device with vibrate, led/lcd (compatible with wm), built in mike, allows me to use my B&O head phones, complete control of media player (fm radio would also be nice).
surely not too much to ask for???
I think the closest is the NOKIA-HS-12W (not sure if it still marketed though)
Cool... Thanks for the info.

[REQ] Phone Call: Route internal speaker sound to headphone jack when plugged in

Hi all,
When i'm driving, my phone is always connected to the headphone jack, so i can listen to spotify over my car's radio ^^
But when i receive a call, the phone always routes the audio output to the internal speaker, which is rather useless in this situation
Is it somehow possible to route the sound to the headphone jack, when receiving a phone call? Maybe some kind of a kernel patch?
Would make a good replacement for a hands-free kit

Yes, this is something I should implement soon in Voodoo sound.
In skype, I could make voice calls using a headphone without microphone. Skype all automatically uses the built in microphone.
Now, how do we make dialer the same?

What I do to fix this problem is to use a Nokia headset adapter since Nokia uses the same 4 pin configuration as Samsung and it works.
I don't really think this can be fixed software wise... I would be pleasantly surprised if it was

Thanks for your fast response . I would also donate for such a feature. Maybe you can pm me, when it's available.
Btw, thanks for your great work. Love the Voodoo Kernel

Sounds interesting! Can you provide the model name of the adapter or maybe provide a link?
Take a look at this
It works as well
