Best Bluetooth

I know this is more of an opinion question, but..
What is the best blue tooth ear piece or head set to be used with the Titan. Please also post with any particular one that was noticeably bad.
thanks

VERY good results with the Plantronics Voyager 885. Mono and stereo in one. Good streaming and working controls (AVCRP and Handsfree).

Moto H700, Blueant Z9, Plantronics 510 are good. I've tried about 10 and those worked best, many seem to pick up static, others seem to sound very muffled.
For headphones, the Moto S9's work great for me. Amazing sound, better than some expensive wired heaphones I have.

another vote for motorola s9, stereo sound is great, call quality is good (i still cant figure out where the microphone is on this thing but people can hear me just fine)
just wish i could get custom ringtones to play in the earpeice

What ROM are you running. I want to make sure Moto S9 is compatible with 3.16.

I have bee using the Samsung WEP500 and love it.
It replaced my Plantronics 665.

The BlueAnt Z9 rocks. Works perfectly with my Sprint Mogul

I love my Sony DS980 works great except the phone book feature
I hope when Sony WM6 phone hits the market this will be possible
to have the drive and get it working.

Really? I bought it at bestbuy and was told my voice sounded horrible compared to my 510. I figured it just didn't play well with the Mogul

jabra bt8010
I have tried about 10 different ear pieces with my phone. I like the Jabra BT8010 the best. It serves two purposes. It can answer calls and with the extra adaptor piece it serves as bluetooth stereo. when u have it on the music setting you can hear all sounds (ringtones, warnings, voicecommand) thru the earpiece without the adaptor connected. That way you dont have to use that funky dongle to listen to music, etc. only bad thing is it picks up outside noise very easy.

another vote for bt8010

Aliph jawbone baby. Works like charm, never any static. By far the best bluetooth headset out there.

Music Lovers Upgrade you may have sitting around.

Hi there, I dont know if this will be no news to most people out there, but ppl, I just realised if you get the iphone ear phones with the mic, You can use it on the Hero for the following
- Receive Calls
- As Expected Listen to Music
- But You can actually squeeze the mic once to pause the song,
- Squeeze it 2 quick times and it will change the track
If you know of any other ways to use the earphone pls drop me a line but right now Illd go back to enjoying this two lil piece of hardware I have that make my life far much better.

As much as I hate apple, thanks for this! I'll be putting this tip to good use
I wonder what other brands are similarly compatible

I've been using my old iPhone earphones since I switched to the Pre last summer
Love them... great quality on the audio, too.

I think the factory iPod/iPhone head phones are garbage. The sound quality is horrible. I guess thats why they can afford to give them away at the moron bar.
My guess is though, if you have a set of good sony's that are iPhone compatible they would be Hero compatible as well.

actually if you double click it makes a call

Is this while playing a song, cos the whole discovery happened in less than 40 mins ago, so i didnt get to dig into how guarranteed it works.
Well I run a ic3rom 2.1 Rom(That just got release last night and is super sweet.)and mine is the Sprint Version so idk if you are on the same boat.

Maybe I'm just a music snob, but does anyone else think the Hero sounds like crap? If you don't you probably have never tried to listen to it over amplified speakers (like in the aux jack in a car). Total crappola Damn shame too, there was great potential for awesomeness.

Yeah I noticed that it doesn't sound all that great as well. espically with car speakers

I hook mine to the deck over USB. Deck handles all the decoding. Phone is just a hard drive to it.
Sounds awesome all the time.

This is great. i own the apple headphones w/ mic. Who knew?

What!?
I sold my iPhone 3Gs to get the money to buy this phone, and thought "I'll just sell the headphones because that button is useless."
Dammit...

yeah my hero sounds like sh*t in the car.
i have a pair of samsung earphones that work as playback and mic during calls, the mute button even works.
is it wierd my g1 soubded better over my car speakers, and that i had to get the usb to headphone jack adapter. ha!

I know the ones that come with the pre and the moment work as well. And yes the Hero seems to be eq'd very strange. Way to much mids and bass in the car makes things a tad muddy.

@everyonelse..thats true, sadly the quality does tend to deteriorate once you connect it to heavier sound systems,

make sure you do not have the volume on the hero all the way up try turning it way down and adjusting mainly through the car stereo this should help and sound fine......
hope it helps

My wife connects hers through a cassette adapter to the car stereo and sound is great!

I have a 1000 watt amp and I'm blasting my hero as I ride. Sounds great to me.

Hero sounds great over blue tooth

are you streaming music to a HU with a DAC, or playing on some BT headphones? Seems like if you stick to the smaller speakers it sounds acceptable. That may explain the weird EQ settings, trying to overcome the poor quality earbuds most people like to use.

Dr.Dre Beats and xperia x10

I bought some ibeats from best buy all excited of course, came home and unbox'd them. Apparently the headphones with the talk control in them sound like there's is a major Flanger effect in them unless you press the talk button.
and i tried it with the AT&T xperia's which were at best buy tried different pair and they sound exactly the same.
Anyone else out there using dre. beats with there xperia without any problems

I can only use the ones from x10 to get good sound others dont work on x10

My Solos never worked with my Xperia. Infact neither did regular iPod headphones. Quite annoying.

i tried 2 different android phones now they work perfectly fine its just the freaking Xperia , im just tired of this phone. No more SE brand's for me. квартиры посуточно Тюмень

If you get the ones without the mic they should work fine.. tried it with a whole bunch of headphones so that I could choose the right one (ended up with Denon D1001 - great set, esp with X10)

Yeah, Sony switched the contacts around on the plug compared to how everyone else does it.
Should work ok if you plug the headphones into the clicker instead of directly into the phone. Well, the headphone part will anyways.

if your headphone has a mic, ie with 3 bands on your jack, it won't work. apparently , sony has its own thing concerning mic, but the regular 3.5 mm jack, with just 2 bands, it should work just fine.

[Q] What headphones do you use?

As using third-party headphones is random with Android mobiles, I decided to create this thread and ask what others use. Please post the type you use with the Huawei U8800 and maybe a short note saying what buttons work and if the mic also works, thank you

Bluetooth headset SonyEricsson MW600, works like a charm. And when no mic is needed, KOSS's SparkPlug.

I only use the U8800 heaphones/mic and I must not change because the pinout is different (begining by the point):
Sound.L/Sound.R/Mic/Ground.
The others like Samsung, Lg, etc. the pinout is:
Sound.L/Sound.R/Ground/Mic.
If we chage it the sound is bad because it return by Mic, not by ground.

I use cheap 1.3$ costed ones.

Jawbone ERA Bluetooth - Works Great. Jawbone app doesn't work on the X5 yet though.
Nokia BH 505 Bluetooth - Does not work well. Connection drops out when listening to music.
Jabra Sport Corded Stereo Headphones - I have just ordered from Ebay to use in gym.

Skullcandy INK'd Earbuds.
And the sound is very good.

I use the Ideos x5 headphones/mic.Anyone know how I can increase microphone power?Because most of ppl who talk they complain that they cant hear me well.
Thanks!!

Jabra bt3030 here with a nice pair of sony earplugs replace jabra ones.Works fine with u8800 as with any phone i used them,very rich sound with music and clear sound with calls.
I have only one thing with them...when a call is ringing, bt3030 has its own ringtone to headphones and not the one that phone has.The think is ,i use it riding my motocycle and if a call comes i wanna listen from my call announcer whos calling me.

Just got myself some Sennheiser IE7's and god.. the difference between my mp3 player and phone is astounding.
The sound in u8800 is just muddy with uneven bass and ****ty highs

Sennheiser PX-100II is excellent for me, but Ideos mic is turn off

Got the Sony MW600 recently on the back of some of the reports here and the Sound quality is much better than I thought it would be all things considered.
Happy with my MW600 but it doesn't work well with the Poweramp app...works much better with the stock music app.

What probs do you get? Play/Pause/Next/previous works ok as well as in call music pause and resume etc. Make sure you are on a gingerbread rom, as the bluetooth stack used in froyo roms is not really good compatibility wise.
If poweramp gives you problems on the BT Buttons, check its settings and disable bt support in other music apps. (i had experienced that problem while using poweramp and XiiaLive, with the latter taking over the bt buttons.)

I'm on the froyo stock....
The problem I was having was that on the BT set when I clicked next track, sure it changed to different track but on a different album. when I inspect the phone on pweramp it's still displaying on the previsous track. The PowerAmp will then freeze after a few seconds then FC.
I will try again using the BT settings for each music app I have as the Stock music app works perfectly...

I have found a possible fix for using third-party headphones, the Sony Ericsson Xperia 2011 range of phones have the same connector and are compatible with our Huawei U8800, so when buying just make sure it works on something like Ark, Play, Neo, Pro and others and it should be okay

I also use these ... work as they should

By now I Just use the huawei (that comes with the cellphone).
And sometimes I use the Headphones of my old GW620, and it's ok (i haven't tried calling with those, but I guess they work, because have the same things).
I'm trying to get some new, but i don't know. xD

[Q] beats solo hd -i dont listen good

Hello people!
I bought BEATS recently but I do not hear well in the Galaxy!
I do not hear the words to the songs ...
And I hear only the melody.
But the IPOD-MP4-LEPTOP or anything else hear good ..
I do not understand what the problem is - I downloaded draivers of BEATS but still can not hear properly
Need to press the talk button control and then hear properly - like Apple's headphones.
So there is a way to hear right through the BEATS???
Thank you helpers!

You need to use headphones without a mic. Don't know too much about it technically but its basically because the 2nd and 3rd bands on the headset port is inverted or something like that. That's why it'll work with Sony headphones with mic but not iPhone with mic. Sony do the same thing btw.
