Anyone recommend the Motorola HS810 BT headset for XDAII ?

Hi, I am limited in the availability of bluetooth headsets. I wanted the sony erricson but cannot get this. The Motorola HS810 is available. Can anyone tell me if it works well and the talk time. Someone mentioned the bonding took 2-3 seconds which doesn't sound great at all.
:?: :?:

It works, perfect!
Tomer

Have no idea, how Tomer could get this thing to work, my xperience is the same 2-3 (sometimes 8-10) sec's of bonding time, and then refuses to bond after 3rd or 4th call.
DO NOT BUY THAT THING!!!!

I have had similar problems with the Motorola HS810 headset. It takes a few seconds to link with the XDAII when a call comes in and sometimes it does not link at all, usually when you make another call too soon after a previous one. The particularly frustrating thing is that you cannot answer a call by opening the mic boom on the headset, as it takes too long to bond with the XDAII, so you have to leave the boom open all the time (i.e. on standby).
I had hoped that this headset would enable me to redial and voice dial (with appropriate software) but I have not found any way yet of doing that. I've tried a few of the major voice recognition software programmes available on www.handango.com/o2 but no luck - they seem to require a hardware button to be pressed on the XDAII which kind of defeats the purpose of having a headset and keeping your XDAII in your bag or pocket.
I would very much like to know if:
1) Any bluetooth headsets exist that work better with the XDAII
2) Anyone has developed software which enables voice dialing from a bluetooth headset
Regards,
Rafil.

I found it was pretty good, but in the end exchanged it for HDH35 since I was told (incorrectly) that the SE headset interfaced better with the XDA2. This is wrong - they do the same.
+++
The Motorola definitely interfaces better with Nokia phones than the HDH35 - you can click twice (IIRC) to do a last number redial - the HDH35 just blithers if you do this.
The Motorola is cuter, smaller, cheaper (just), looks slightly less bizarre and less phallic (although the Jabra is the ultimate dickhead symbol)
---
The HDH35 is much more comfortable for long periods of use - I can wear it on my left ear and forget it all day. Right ear, not so good!!
For your info they are about the same price on eXpansys.com, and half the price of retail in the UK. I paid £70 for the HDH35.

V-Three BTH-8 bluetooth headset

As anyone tried the V3 BTRH-8 headset with Exec? I'm thinking buying this one but I would like to know the behaviour with XDA before aquisition:
- Caller's name (perhaps with help of JetWARE)?
- Access to phonebook (contacts Outlook)
- Sound
- Use of voice dial
- USB charging adapter

Have you found an answer concerning these issues?

I did not find any answer about this.

Hi HeartofDarkness,
Thanks for your comments and please reply some more questions if you free.
-Phone Singal Indicator is correct or not?
-Is Incoming call Ring loud enoguh to hear if you put it in your shirt pocket?(With highest volume level)
-How is sound quality for listening MP3 songs?Good,acceptable,bad?
-Can it call to speed dial numbers?
Thanks in advance

Hi there
1 - There is no phone signal indicator; only an icon indicating whether you're online or the Tekkeon's connected. If it's signal strength you're looking for, it is not displayed on the headset screen;
2 - Hummm... In a silent environment, I'd say yes, probably, although you should know that I have pretty sharp hearing. I don't think it could be heard if it where in a jeans pocket, for instance, with the earpiece on the leg-side. But with the Tekkeon, it's not really a problem, because it is *extremely* comfy, and you can keep it on your ear and (litteraly) forget it's there after a while. The downside to this is that it's nearly impossible to run with it, for instance (I mean even to catch your bus or your train), because the ear-fit is pretty loose;
3 - Music quality is on par with other good non-stereo, non-AKU2 headsets, meaning: really bad. I'm talking about the kind of quality you hear when being put on wait when you call your bank, for instance. It's not because the headset's bad, nor because of the bluetooth connecion, it simply is a bandwidth problem. Hand-free mono-aural headsets are only designed to render frequencies in the human voice range, which is clearly too narrow for correct musical rendering;
4 - No, no speed-dial, only last dialed (through a short-cut, which is a good idea), and a list of the last received calls.
Overall sound quality - and I especially mean how well people on the other side of the line heard me - was (I say was because I don't have it anymore) quite good - on par with Sony-Ericsson and Jabra, which are IMHO references in that particular area - *except* in windy locations. And I mean that even a breeze caused my interlocutors to go "what ? what did'ya say ?" over and over again. That's where, IMHO, Tekkeon should have included even a little bit of DSP-based noise suppression.
I now have Jabra BT-800, and well, I'd be hard-put saying which I prefer. The Tekkeon was 10 times prettier, that's for sure. Connection indicator was a big plus with the Tekkeon too. I'd say the Jabra is better about sound quality in noisy places, but the fit is even looser, it's bulkier and although quite pretty, not nearly as pretty as the Tekkeon. The Tekkeon felt flimsier, especially the jack-type attachement between the ear-clip and the headset. Dunno how long that would have lasted before it became too loose and rendered the headset unusuable, my money is on "really not very long". Jabra's got more autonomy, and has a vibrator so that you can keep it in your pocket and still be sure to get all calls.
Hope this helps.

Hi HeartofDarkness,
Really thanks for your detailed explanations. It helps me a lot in thinking to buy which headset. Until now, there is no new headset with Screen Display is going to come out as far as I saw.
Thanks

Yeah, picking up *the* BT headset's quite a challenge.
Personnally, and having been through quite a few of them, I'd really like to see a cross between these three:
- Sony Ericsson HBH-608 for its DSP technology;
- Nokia BH-900 for its sliding mic. that comes almost all the way to the mouth, improving by the ten-fold the way my interlocutors hear me;
- Tekkeon ezTalker 3000 (which is the same as V3 you're interested in) for its OLED screen.
Or else, I'd really love to see Motorola come out with a version of their HT-820 head-phones that includes a screen. I don't know how they did it, but the mic. in these head-phones is really, really good, people can hear me loud & clear even in windy / noisy locations, and sound quality for music listening is actually quite good. Granted it's a bit bulky, but it's extremely well designed, so....

Hi heartofdarkness,
How long it takes to display the Caller ID after the call ring on the phone for V3 BTH8. Is it too long?
I am also looking at following stereo Bluetooth headsets. Has anyone experiences? Both are with small earphones unlike big headsets of most stereo. And they are with Caller ID display.
-SonyEricsson HBH DS970
-Nokia HS 12W(Also with FM radio, Stell Cover)

Display of the name is instantaneous: instead of a number, you get a name.
The two headset you show are pretty nice although I hate the fact that you can't change the ear-buds for better ones. In that respect, I'd definitly go myself for the Sony Ericsson rather than the Nokia, because the buds seem to be derived from the fairly good Sony EX-51. The Nokia buds just look like 5 $ earphones....

Can anyone tell me if this headset has a blinking blue LED when in standby or when talking on it?

I don't remember if it was actually blinking, but there is an icon that shows it is connected to your phone, on the screen, even when in stand-by mode.

Jabra BT 800 vs V3 BTH8
I would recommend the Jabra. I own both of these units. The Jabra has a much clearer sound. Callers used to complain about the cutouts and poor sound quality of the V3. The Jabra also has an inbuilt vibrator, which means that you get the call even in noisy environments. Used with the Jetware plug in you get caller ID showing the surname of the caller. You can't get the address book however. I think that this is a WM5 limitation.
The V3 however has several advantages. The LED readout is easier to read than the LCD of the Jabra. The V3 is also rock solid on your ear, and feels like it will never come loose. The Jabra feels like it will fall off in a strong wind or when you lean your head.
The V3 uses a membrane that fits into your ear which means it cuts out background noise, which is good and bad. The Jabra uses a louder signal but doesn't seal to the ear canal.
Incidentally, I get the ring tone in the headset about 2 second before the phone makes a peep.

Hi!
I have the v3 and I've been using it for almost 10 months now with my dopod900. I eventually got used to guessing the caller since it couldnt read from dopod. but i upgraded the rom and now it could read the address book.. but still no caller id.
Does anybody of you have problems with jetware? im planning on installing it.. thanks!

I have experienced no problems with the Jetware extension. Please post your findings if you do install it. Thanks

i cant seem to get jetware to work on caller ID on my dopod900 ...
its the latest firmware ..

whenever i answer yes to the " extension is not loaded... ?" My Plantronics 510 stop working with my jasjar . I have to answer no, so it works, but I must say that even this " no" improved a bit the qyuality of my speech , as most of the people claim that there is a lot of interruption while am talking .
Can some body tell me how I can defeat this interruptions ? would sonyericsin HBH 810a helps ?
Thanks

Bluetooth headsets range with universal

I notice there is alot of disussion over BT headsets, and several threads adressing range/crackling/'static' noise .
However, none of them clearly identifies several BT headsets which won't have problems with using range with Universal - as our pet gadget definetly have it's own issues performing considerably worster then other BT phones / PDA-s with headsets.
So I would kindly ask you all to identify me few models of BT headsets you are using and which can normally communicate with universal in most common situations without crackling/static/disconnections.
I have used old Nokia HDW-3 - and it performed excellent, I could walk all arround the room, turn my head in any direction, stand in between phone and headset (even with universal) and it would sound flawlesly. However, I got the new headset X-sport - very tiny (less then 8g) and fitting me comfortably, but alas, when I charged it and tried to use it - it crackles even if my Uni is on the desk infront of me and I turn my head away.
Please advice on models I could mail order without fear of showing this flaw.

I am using Sony ericsson Stereo Bluetooth Headset HBH-DS970. The coverage and sound quality are excellent. It offers full A2DP funtionality with Windows media Player as well as pocketmusic. The hardware controls on this headset include Forward and previous track button (which really work with my universal with Darkforce Rom), volume control and an OLED display which displays the caller ID (number only). Voice dialing works perfectly. The earpiece looke like normal earphone (no buldging contraption on the ear like most bluetooth headsets.

Bottom Line:
Any radio freq. is line of sight. So if you turn your head and the two radios (Receiving & Transmitting) are not in LOS, it means that the signal needs to bounce off something else, or go through something, (in this case probably your Head ) which causes the signal to fade, hence the interference.

bluetooth range is also sometimes ROM specific

I'm quite aware that line of sight provides optimal radio connectivity. But in theory as well as in my experience, good bluetooth connection should be able to cope with such an obstacle as my head providing that distance is about 50 - 70 cm.
However, I guess that most of Universal users are well aware that our devices have inferior performance to most 'regular' mobiles on the market. Is it location of the BT module or ROM - I don't know - it would be great if it's ROM as it would make it relatively fixable. I'm using QTEK latest shipped ROM 1.30.77 WWE together with R.13.00 radio ROM - but willing to change if it helps.
However, by what I red in other threads on this forum, inferior performance is more likely caused by location of BT module in the device.
Thus some headsets which have better BT transmission and reception (more radiated power and better reception) due to their construction should provide us with better BT performance). Thus the 'field test' is only good pointer which headset to buy or not to buy. For me, BT headset which can't communicate from my belt to my ear when I break line of sight by my hand swinging while I walk - is unusable - I'll much rather wear a wire
I tried my old Nokia HDW-3 and it performed great. On the other hand I tried that X-sport tiny one - it was disaster. Now I'm waiting new examplar of good old Nokia as well as Jabra BT800 - I'll report about the field tests

I've tried two options with my QTEC 9000 and using Windows Media. I bought Motoroka S9: really nice concept with the BT unit embedded in the back of the headband, and the sound quality is excellent, and switched between music and calls easily, the track forward (but not backward) control worked, buttons easy to manipulate. Several drawbacks however: it becomes uncomfortable on your ears after an hour or so due to the the design and the hard plastic used (may depend on the shape of your head) and the phone mic only works through one earpiece not in stereo (this is stated in the documentation, it was not a problem with my setup). The fatal flaw however was the BT range. It worked fine when I hold the phone behind my head, inches away from the headset BT unit, but this was impractical for extended periods of time When I put the phone in my jacket pocket or shoulder bag, the continual breakup of the signal made it unuseable. The phone signal performed better but for music this has very limited success and certainly doesn't work as a mobile device, which is sort of the point.
I then bought a Sony Ericsson HBH DS200. The range problem is resolved, music streams fine with my device in my pocket, shoulder bag or briefcase. I can walk around a room and listen to music and make calls no problem, although the music signal drops out when blocked by my body and the distance is about 2m or more. The swithching back to music after taking or making a call is a bit flaky, sometimes i need to reset the devise again to reestablish the connection, but sometimes it works OK. No caller ID on the headset, no volume control, no track back/forward, so it's a bit basic, but after the previous experience, I'm just happy it works. The supplied earbuds are good, and you can unplug them and use anything else you want with a 3.5 jack.
Hope this helps.

Jabra BT800 Jabra BT250V Plantronics A510
The Jabra BT800 (or 810, whatever it was with the LCD) would not get very loud with my Universal. It also wasn't very secure. The LCD would have been cool though...
The Jabra BT250v was very secure, could get plenty loud (most times), but had crappy reception, and worse reception when/if an SD card was inserted. When I say crappy reception, i mean bad. At arms length the headset started having static. As far as I could tell it was only I who heard it, but when I started hearing static, the person on the other side couldn't really hear me.
Plantronics A510 is the bomb!! (in a good way). I have only had it for a few days, but it is super lightweight, gets plaenty loud enough, and I can walk almost 30 feet form the Universal and keep a connection. AND thats while I have an SD card in! It's less than $50 on amazon and is their #1 selling product! It has 1700+ reviews on the site, which I found impressive.

I can confirm the issues with the volume for noisy conditions. In that case I have to manually raise the volume on the headset.
In my silent office the volume's just fine, but yes, it could be higher by default.
I never experienced problems with the range or any disturbances.
With the Universal on my desk I can even wander around on my balcony, which means being about 4 meters away and having no direct line of sight.
With a direct line of sight static gets noticable at about 8 meters, which is living room couch to kitchen sink
I got the BT800 from a good friend who felt uncomfortable wearing it and he told me, that he experienced range problems if the phone was in his left pocket and HS on his right ear. He was using a, mmh, i believe a wizard at that time and the behaviour didn't change after switching to a btv 500 or 250.
This brought me to the theory that range problems in case of small distances are closely related to the belly size of the user.

HBH-DS220?

Anyone here tried this new Sony-Ericsson Bluetooth Stereo Headset? Comments? Reviews? Reviews on the web?

yeah I tried it and still am!!!!
I bought the hbh-ds220 about a week ago and have had nothing but trouble.
Is a little temperamental connecting to my TYTN II and it not really clear how the buttons are supposed to work with things like voice dial, redial etc. If you just want it to play and pause music then its just about acceptable. The volume control is a bit naff... you press and hold the play button and it cycles through loud, louder, loudest, quiet, quieter, quitest. There's no visible way to tell what volume level you are on though so its a bit guess work.
The headphones are really poor by Sony standards. They are supposed to be mega bass but have barely any bass response at all.
The worst thing though is the in-call sound quality. It sounds like the person on the other end is talking underwater.
I have looked round the net to find a fix but found none. I can't be the only person having this trouble.
I love Sony products and only buy Sony. I wish I'd never laid ears on this though.
If anyone has any suggestons to improve the sound quality then I'd be grateful.

I bought a DS220 the other day and love it! It paired great with my HTC Touch Dual and I listen to music and take calls etc.
I dumped the SE earphones though and use my own ones.

I am having problems with the phone dropping the connection the the headset after calls. I have to turn the headset off and then on again to reestablish the connection after every call.

it's been a while, but hey, what the heck:
http://justanothermobilemonday.com/...-ericsson-hbh-ds220-stereo-bluetooth-headset/

you should try a new one like Nokia original, Jabra etc. I think these are better.
or you will have to take to care center.

I recently bought a Jabra 3030 for my Diamond. And it STINKS. I even went through two of them, thinking that the first was faulty/broken. Nope. They both had a loud background noise that ruined any type of sound quality, not to mention the electronic turn on/off of the bluetooth itself that poked a hole in your ear.
I replaced it with a DS-200 (similar to the DS-220, presumably) and its much, much better. The noise is far less and the turn on/off is barely noticable.
This is just my personal experience though, everyone else seem to praise the 3030 for its quality...

[Q] The best bluetooth headset for MT4G?

How is SE MW600? I would like to know if anyone could see the song title in the set and whether all the volume up, down, next etc are working fine.

you could always google search "SE MW600 review" and see what people say. And if you want end users try punching in "amazon SE MW600 review" and see what they are saying.
Personally i use an older Motorola ear bud that serves the purpose.

I Work At best buy and I'm using the Plantronics 975 its a great device very comfortable with great noise cancellation

plantronics 855 is a great headset. a2dp stereo bluetooth and a removable earpiece.

I've been using mine with a Jawbone Icon (Rogue) and I haven't had any issues. It's light, stylish and very functional.

I don't know if these are the "best" but I have the Motorola behind the neck ROKRs, and like them.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875982253

imho
Plantronics Voyager Pro +
Willing to bet you one dollar paypal that it's the best bluetooth you've ever owned.
Reasons:
Gel air filled custom ear fittings *these actually screw on too , very impressive
long mic boom (so people can actually hear you)
not one person to date has said I sound like sh*t (FINALLY)
a2dp support
status updates by pressing power button (announces battery time remaining)
press and hold outer button, it calls a toll free number that you can configure on a website to hookup with your e-mail, it reads rss feeds, news.
I also work for t-mobile and I've used bluetooth headsets ranging from 29.99 to 199.99, some of them I thought were amazing (motorola backbeats) but the problem always came down to whoever I was talking on the phone saying
"dude are you on bluetoooth?"
me: yes
"you sound like sh*t"
me: YARGGGGG HOW MUCH MONEY DO I HAVE TO SPEND TO SOUND DECENT

Many beg to differ, but I've owned the same pair of rocketfish headsets for almost two years now...very good to me with many sweaty head days at the gym.

I know this is a late reply but I thought I would throw in my 2 cents on the topic.
I was looking for something to listen to music while at work (desk job), working out, etc.
I ended up buying the Motorola S305 from Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002BH3I9U)
I have had these now since February and I am extremely happy with them.
PROS
Comfortable to wear
Decent sound quality
Easy to use controls
Phone headset is has good call quality. Others can hear me as if i'm on the handset
Micro USB charger, same as phone
low cost
CONS
Foam earpieces soak up sweat
no noise cancellation
Overall, for $35.00, you can't go wrong!

Plantronics seems to be the winner. I have both 925 and 975. Both are optimal and work fantastically.
Now my 925 is paired with my HD2, and the 975 with MT4G.

Are any of these recommended for both phone calls and for working out (sweat resistant)? I'm just mainly looking for headphones for working out minus the dang cord. Also if I get a phone call when I'm working out or shooting basketball, I wanna be able to answer without stopping.

bump... anyone have an opinion? Just waitin to buy one for some input from people who I actually trust lol

I've owned the Plantronics BackBeat 906 for almost a year and have had mixed results with both a G1 and a MT4G.
It can be so comfortable that I forget I'm wearing it. But sometimes the earbuds are loose, mostly when worn under bicycle helmet straps. Because it's loose, I can't hear music very well.
Audio sounds great. Convenient controls. Haven't figured out how to skip a song on Pandora or a podcast on Listen though. Clicking play sometimes starts a saved voicemail rather than Google Listen or Pandora. I'm not sure how to define the "default" media app in Android.
Paring is hit-or-miss. Often it pairs with just the phone audio and not the media audio. This happened more on the T-Mobile ROM than it does on Cyanogenmod 7, but still happens. The solution is a cumbersome opening of the BT settings, long-press the device, un-check and then re-check Media Audio.
Reception is good if the phone is within 20-30 feet (the advertised range.) Reception is horrible if the phone is in a pocket. I have a backpack with a very high pocket and that usually works, unless I turn my head to the left. It is VERY annoying.
Here's what I sent to Panasonic:
I own a G1 Android-powered phone and about 50% of the time when I turn on my BackBeat 906 it syncs with the phone audio, but not the media. Is there some trick to get it to sync with both?
Also, the reception is so poor that when the phone is in my pocket the audio drops out completely. I am tall, but much less than 30' tall.

Their response:
Please try a reset...press and hold the power button on the headphones....and while you are doing that, please connect the charger to the Backbeats until you see a blue or red solid light and then release the button.....let it charge for an extra 30 seconds and then try to use them
Also, delete the headset from your cell phone's list of paired devices. Once deleted, make sure to power your phone completely off. Then power it back on. (This will reset the Bluetooth stack in the BT software on the phone). Then re-pair the headset with your phone.
If this does not fix your issue, my suggestion is to try pairing the headset to another cell phone, if possible. If the issue continues with the second phone, you will need to replace the headset. If your headset connects properly to the second phone, then the problem may be with the first phone rather than the headset.

...did not help. I still struggle with piss-poor reception when the phone is in a pocket.

well what frickin good is a bluetooth headphone set if you can't have the phone in your pocket lol

Yes Rosebud1, it is extremely frustrating! It's fine sitting on a desk, but for cycling, running, or walking I would not recommend this headset.

Thanks for the reply. What horrible customer service too!!

Yeah, it was a pretty useless response. I suspect it's just a horrid design flaw that they know they can't fix, so sending the customer on a wild goose-chase delays the inevitable.

U should check out the jabra clipper. I use it when I work out n its awesome
