[Q] music through my jawbone bt earpiece? - Vibrant General

is it possible on the vibrant to stream music to my jawbone bt earpiece ? i used to do it on my touch pro 2. but with android im not sure ? help me out guys please

Yes, it's possible (though it may depend on what model Jawbone you have). Make sure your Jawbone is updated with H2DP and your phone should be able to recognize that the headset can be headphones as well. Check out the Jawbone website for more info.

If his jawbone is like my old one ( now use a Plantronics Pro), it didn't support Stereo (H2DP)
One of things I plan on looking into the Android source for is why someone hasn't come out with a "Mixer" app to route Media out the BT Headset profile. I'm sure there's a technical reason.
I've never seen a phone send music out to a BT headset... I don't understand why that is, it does if you use a wired headphone.
Things like podcasts should be fine in a mono headset. Even music would be better than nothing.

A2DP?
The new jawbone hero has an update that supports A2DP. Music sounds terrible through it tho, I even streamed NPR's car talk through it and it was scratchy. For some reason too, the phone prefers streaming over BT rather than through the audio jack when it's plugged in. Turned off the audio profile for the headset.

Navigation Software Audio over BT

How do you guys listen to your voice navigation software? I have the supertooth II BT handsfree set, and make and receive my phone calls through it. Now when I go into my nav software, the audio goes throught the loudspeaker, or I have to use the cable earphones (supplied with phone).
Using the earphones is a bit stupid, then I might as well not have the handsfree in the car. I would like to get all audio & sound to go to my Supertooth.
There was a site I found where a guy posted software that sends all audio to a bluetooth headset. Now this was a Samsung i730 post, now I wonder if it is not written for the i730, as I tried it out, and it switches my Supertooth on, but still nou audio can be heard.
Will something like a BT audio transmitter that is normally used to trasmit audio from a MP3 player to a hifi work?

how to using the bluetooth handset listen MP3 from Atom

who can share the experience like subject mentioned.
Don't have the Atom myself but tested my BT I-Tech Clip with my mates one and it worked on first attempt.
Just pair the devices as normal and the PDA will recognise it to be a headset.
I use iTech S35 ... works great
I am using the iTech S35 STEREO Bluetooth headset to listen to STEREO MP3 music. I also use it together with TCPMP to watch movies in STEREO. It also operates as handsfree phone.
It works great !
I chose the iTech S35 because it has a 3.5mm female jack so that you can plug in ANY headphone u want to use. The headphones that come with the S35 is abit crappy but who cares - you can use your own !
Most Bluetooth headsets have the headphones built-in so you are stuck with what it comes with but not the S35
if you choose the S38, it even has built in controls for controlling the "play", "next" etc. so the Atom stays in your pocket while you control the player. I haven't tried it but don't see any reason why it should not work.
I am full of praise for the S35 !
For phones I use the Audio Technica "PEAR" necklace phones so my headphones stay tangle free. I think the two makes a good combination.
One note : You won't have radio if u use the S35 or any other bluetooth headset 'cos it needs the headset that comes with the Atom plugged in as the antenna as well. So if u want radio u gotta carry that headset with you.
i got a BlueAnt X3 headset
It can only act as a handsfree... however, it allows me to listen to music when it's connected to my other mobile phone... so the problems seems to be with Atom... can anyone help?

Mono Bluetooth for music

I am currently running Dudes 1.1 cupcake right now and loving every
part of it except that I can't seem to listen to my music via mono bluetooth. I have a few regular bluetooths for talking and would like to listen to my music thru them also. I read about stereo bluetooth working and all, but does it not work on mono bluetooth.
Please help..
Also, if I must get a stereo bluetooth, can you suggest were to go to get a cheap good one that will work. Thanks
bluetooth music help
someone really needs to help please.. Stuck using a standard MP3 player with CORDED headphones. .. Please guide me to getting bluetooth mono/stereo on my DUDE'S CUPCAKE ...
i wish i could get this to work as well, i have a phenominal bluetooth headset (mono) and am allowed to wear it around at work all day (but no stereo headphones) since its a product we sell, and would love to be able to listen to my mp3's aswell
Previously used a blackberry pearl with crackberry software to run MONO BLUETOOTH for my music. Now I lost that with G1. I LOVE my G1, so don't get me wrong. I just wish they had something to offer mono bluetooth music. If they did, I swear it would be perfect thanks to DUDES Cupcake.
Yep, i would like to know this to. I know it can be done because you can force the sound after the call for like 10 to 20 seconds then it goes out.

I could but I like my Motorola H690
more HELP
I am caving in.. I will buy a Stereo Bluetooth headset, if i am guarenteed it will work on DUDE's CUPCAKE 1.1a .. I see on the comparision chart that it doesn't support stereo bluetooth for music.. Can someone please confirm or deny this..
If confirmed, what is the cheapest bluetooth i can buy that will play my music.
If DUDE's doesnt support, what can you recommend to install to work Stereo/Mono bluetooth. I was leaning towards jf 1.51, but i would love to keep DUDE's
Thanks again
Dudes build will work with stereo bluetooth because my car's head unit will accept it and works great just not with my mono motorola headset.
Hate to bring up a older thread but I am wondering if anyone has found a way to do this. I dont want to buy a a new bluetooth because i have no use for them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
^Bump. I would like to know as well.
When I pair my phone with the Bluetooth (Plantronics 925) and select options - I see it connected to phone audio and media audio. But when I play music (stock player), it plays through the speakers. I did try a Google search on this, but not seeing a solution to it

[Q] Bluetooth Headset Audio?

Hi All,
I have a 16GB TF .. and it's been very good so far. However, I'm having an issue that I think is probably simple .. but google & xda searches don't find anyone else with the same issue.
I want to use Skype over the tablet, but with a bluetooth headset. Using the TF with just the internal mic & speakers is pretty speakerphon-ish .. and I'd like to use a headset.
I have a couple of BT headsets (one of them 2.1 w/ EDR), and I can pair any / all of them to the TF. Problem is, the audio doesn't come through over the head set, and I don't know how to force it to.
The TF (now running 3.1) acknowledges that the headset is connected (to phone audio it says) .. but the only options in the configuration is to remove it.
What am I missing? I see reviews all over the place where folks are using the tablet to play movies in the car, and piping the audio out via BT? I think I must be missing a config step .. but can't find it.
Thanks for your help.
Im kind of in the same boat but I dont think honeycomb has a "phone audio" functionality. Only "media audio," which is what you would use when piping audio to external speakers.
its the same on the phone, those headsets only connect to mono phone audio so if I was playing a movie or music its silent. So for right now I think you are stuck until they figure out how to make specific apps recognize the phone audio device.
Makes some sense .. so it knows there's a "phone audio" aspect to things out there, but we don't have any way to force the Skype audio to be phone audio and not media.
So if I had a stereo headset, would the system work with it and pipe the audio out since it would recognize it as a media audio system?
Where does the mic fit in all of this?
I have a BT combination headset/headphones which I paired with the Transformer, and from testing it I can say the following:
1. The transformer paris with the device and recognizes both the "handsfree" and "media" profiles that the headphones support.
2. The "media" profile (also called A2DP, stereo bluetooth, etc) works fine. I have listened to music in stereo though them and all of the controls like play/pause and previous/next work properly. If you want to listen to movies, music, or whatever else you should be fine.
3. I can hear Skype through the headphones, but testing revealed that Skype is using the Transformer's build in microphone rather than the one in my headphoens. It also doesn't respond to the call button. Thus, it seems to be using the "media" profile to deliver sound.
So, even though the Transformer can clearly recognize handsfree profile, it either isn't passing it to apps or Skype isn't asking for it.
It looks like as long as you plan to be Skyping with the tablet infront of you, you can get almost the same functionality of a handsfree/headset by using a BT headphones instead. As long as you don't plan to leave the tablet in one room and talk in another you should be fine.
hey so i tried Super BT Mono Free Trial and it actually worked. thought it was Froyo only and reportedly broken with gingerbread.
using Samsung WEP450 paired "handsfree" profile, turned on Super BT Mono and to my surprise audio from music player routed to the BT headset. sound is crappy, and so far can't get audio from BeyondPod to the BT headset.
rooted 8.4.4.11 with netformer 1.5 OC 1.6 ghz and juwe11 ram profile.

[Q] Bluetooth headphones without A2DP

Hi, I just bought a couple of headphones for my flashed HTC HD2.
The problem is that it does not play music. After googling it is probably due to the fact that the headset does not support A2DP. (which is stereo playback)
Now my question is if there is any fix to play music anyway, without the A2DP feature in the headset)
I mean, I can hear calls etc. in the headphones.
Thanks!
Hi!
Unfortunatly A2DP is the only way to stream music from your phone to a bluetooth headset. I Google'd a bit and maybe it's good to check the Automatic Bluetooth Toggle Pro app, because it is possible of connecting to a2dp. I think (not sure) A2DP is standard available on the HD2 because it's an older technology.
