Motorola Droid :: What Bluetooth Headset Do You Use?

Jan 26, 2010

Haven't seen a recent thread on this lately so I'm curious what Bluetooth headsets you guys use out there? Rate 'em 1-5, link 'em too if you can! I currently use:

-Plantronics Discovery 975 5/5
-Plantronics Discovery 925 4/5
-Aliph Jawbone2 4/5
-Plantronics Voyager 520 3/5

1. Plantronics Discovery 975. I've got 2 of these actually one for my PlayStation 3 and one for my Droid. It's the main Bluetooth headset I use these days. Sound quality is excellent. It sticks in your ear with no hoop, is comfortable to wear for long periods of time. It comes with a little leather case with a battery built in so that you can recharge the headset up to 3x when away from AC power. Has a little LCD panel to show you charge of both devices. (Infinitely easier than deciphering how many blinks equals what battery charge!) Best voice. You may see them on this seasons "24" as it's the headphone of choice at CTU

2. Plantronics Discovery 925. Earlier version of the 975. Great for call quality, battery life etc. Comes with same little case. Design is a little different but it gets the job done. No LCD screen on the case. Mainly used with my work Blackberry. Uses MicroSD charger, so you get an extra for your Droid!

3. Aliph Jawbone2. Much smaller than the original. Very tiny and chic. Great sound quality (it uses a little nub to detect vibration in your jaw to know when to isolate outside noise (using it's patented NoiseAssassin) so you could be on a crowded street and still be pretty clear. Only downsides are the battery life isn't amazing and the proprietary charger plus it only comes with a USB. (Becoming less of an issue these days as I'm starting to acquire a ton of AC USB chargers)

4. Plantronics Discovery 520. My original work Bluetooth headset. Does a decent job but is a little bulky. The ear hook makes it a bit uncomfortable to wear for long periods and not quick to get on. Has a proprietary weird shaped charging port. Battery life was average if that.

Motorola Droid X :: How To Get DX To Ring Through Bluetooth Headset?

Sep 13, 2010

I have my DX paired to a motorcycle helmet bluetooth headset (Cardo Scala G4). It's setup on the A2DP profile. It plays music just fine, as well as makes and receives calls. The problem is that when I have an incoming call, my headset does not ring at all. The only thing that happens is, if I'm playing music, the music stops.

I've scoured the internet and cannot find any resolution. I know that it's the phone (and not the headset) because when I pair the headset to my wife's LG Dare, it rings through the headset speakers perfectly. This is a major problem, and I'm hoping that there IS a way to overcome this.

Motorola Droid :: Music On Bluetooth Headset VZW

Dec 9, 2009

So when I bought my Droid, the offered me a "Bluetooth Package" which included the LG HBM-210 headset, a case, and a car charger (I can't remember if the screen covers were included or seperate). Is it possible to play music on that headset? Right now, after I pair it with my Droid, it only starts receiving sound when I receive or place a call. When I play music on the build-in player or with Pandora/Last.fm/Imeem nothing happens. It just plays from the speaker. If I can't listen to music through it at all I think I'll probably return it along with the case/cover I got.

Motorola Droid X :: Bluetooth Stereo Headset

Sep 10, 2010

I have a problem with audio through my bluetooth stereo headset. I have an old Logitech FreePulse Wireless that I use and have tested it with my old samsung p2 mp3 player, no problems there. I also dont have a problem using a bluetooth earpiece for calls. However, I can't get any sound through the headset. It connects fine, shows "media playing through bluetooth" or whatever it says when I change the volume, yet nothing but silence comes out. Also I am on leaked 2.2, dont know if it worked on 2.1 because I never tried.

Motorola Droid : Best Bluetooth Headset For Working Out?

Jan 21, 2010

I did a quick search and found a couple headsets mentioned but i was wondering if anyone could tell me the best ones for working out. I want Bluetooth cause i hate wires hanging in the way all the time.

correct me if i am wrong but you can use the skip song feature if the headphones have it right? I know the iphone doesn't allow you to use the skip track because it doesn't support it.

Motorola Droid :: Bluetooth Headset / Say A Command Feature

Nov 19, 2009

I have a motorola bluetooth headset and with my old Storm I could push the button on the headset and it would say "Say a command" from here I could say "Call John Doe mobile" and it would call him up. Haven't figured out how to make this work on the Droid in the same manner natively. Is it possible or is there an application. Purpose of bluetooth is to be hands free. Its not very hands free if I have to pull my phone out my pocket to dial the number first to be able to use the headset.

Motorola Droid 2 :: Change Announcement On Bluetooth Headset?

Nov 10, 2010

I have a BlueAnt T1 headset that I use with my Droid 2. When you turn on the headset it says "Powering Up" then "your phone is connected" followed by a child's voice that says "Droid 2." For some reason, that kid's voice is getting on my nerves. Is there a way to change (or remove) it?

Motorola Droid :: Visual Voicemail Through Bluetooth Headset?

Nov 13, 2009

I was very excited to finally get visual voice mail, but unfortunately it does not work though the bluetooth headset. This really stinks and looks to be a software limitation. Is there a way to play visual voice mail through a headset? It's fairly useless and a waste of 3$ per month if not! I'd really like to try Google voice, but I am patiently waiting for my invitation.

Motorola Droid :: Bluetooth Headset Voice Quality

Nov 15, 2009

I currently have a Jawbone II headset and just got my Droid a couple days ago. My wife keeps on saying that when she calls me that my voice is very echoy. is this a common issue w/ the Droid, or is there something I need to try to do to possibly fix this issue. Other then this, the phone is great, but because I live off my bluetooth headset this is a big issue for me.

Motorola Droid 2 : Voice To Text Through Bluetooth Headset?

Nov 17, 2010

I have a new Droid 2 running 2.3 and a Bluetooth headset (Samsung HM3500). Speech-to-text (of the sort activated by pushing the microphone button in any text-input field) does not work through the Bluetooth headset.

Oddly, after initially booting up the phone, it works through the built-in microphone. I then activate and pair my headset. Voice recognition doesn't work through the headset (or through the built-in mic). I then disable Bluetooth, turn off the headset. Voice recognition continues not to work!

I know the headset works. And when I press the headset button, it enters "voice command" mode where it asks me to "say a command." This mode works over the Bluetooth headset! Also, I tested this behavior in the Voice Recognizer of ApiDemos, and its also broken in the way described above.

Motorola Droid :: Bluetooth Headset Connected But Sound Coming From Phone Speakers

Jan 9, 2010

When I had my Voyager, I could use my bluetooth earpiece to talk on the phone, and also get the audio from the Navigation to come through the earpiece. I was surprised tonight that when I was using my GPS on the Droid it didn't come through my earpiece which resulted in me turning my radio down significantly so I could hear the phone.

I also have a stereo bluetooth headphones that I already paired and see the icon on the screen, but when I play a video or some music, it doesn't come through the headphones. Its still coming out of the Droid's phone speakers. Its showing that it is connected in my notifications bar too.

Samsung I7500 :: Bluetooth Headset (Motorola H350) Audio Not Transferred

Jun 22, 2010

I Just got galaxy a few days ago, that's my first android and I'm really happy with it (especially after flashing to drakaz's ROM). But, there's one issue though: Since I'm using a motorcycle as my main vehicle, I'd like to mount the phone above the gauges and use my H350 For voice navigation when using GPS/phone calls/music.

(GPS navigation is the main reason for doing this). I've managed to pair the headset with my phone, under settings. I see my H350 with the following status: "Connected to phone audio". But still, except making phone calls, I can't hear music/any other audio with my bluetooth headset, it comes out of the phone's speaker instead. Is there any workaround/hidden setting I didn't see? I'm using "waze" for GPS btw.

HTC Droid Eris :: Stereo Bluetooth Headset And Other Phone Sounds

Feb 22, 2010

1. Will a stereo Bluetooth headset work for listening to Pandora on the Eris? I ask because I saw one thread in which somebody said "No Bluetooth for anything other than telephone sound" on the Eris.

2. If it will work, any recommendations such a headset? I'm no audiophile, so my main issues would be comfort and battery life.
