Don't buy the writeright screen protectors. - Moto X Accessories

Purchased the 3 pack at Walmart for ten bucks, there is no cutout for the microphone, so you're muted. Almost didn't notice it because I had my stereo headset on all day and calls were fine. Got home, disconnected Bluetooth and nobody could hear me. Returning them tomorrow.
tl;dr - they don't work

Just got mine today and same thing. I can't find a support site for them so i can complain.

New noise canceling BT headset & proof it works.

I just got my www.jawbone.com headset. It is wonderful, works as claimed.
I have tried at least 12 others, this is the best.
That's fantastic! Where do I get one in the UK?
And the Jawbone customer service is as good as the headset itself
I also purchased the Jawbone headset. It does really work as they claim.
Unfortunately, I broke the standard ear loop. I had the headset in my front pants pocket and bent down to pick something up. I am using it with the longer ear loop right now and it doesn't hold the headset as tightly as it should.
I sent an email to [email protected] and received a response in less than an hour. They are sending me two replacement ear loops at no charge. They also wanted to know how I broke it to ensure there wasn't some kind of a defect in the design.
Excellent headset and excellent customer service.
oh man that is awesome...
i think i might have to get one...

jawbone 2 works much better than the first! i would recommend the 2nd over the first version any day!
works much better then the first, but I think my blueant z9 was better (lost it..)
I actually have a blueant z9i on order - so will be able to do a side-by-side comparison soon. I'm tired of people telling me that I sound like I'm in a tunnel when I use the jawbone 2. (and it can't handle wind..)

Heads Up!!!on SOny A2DP Headphones DR-BT20NX

(i posted this in the Wizard forums but i just wanted to inform as many peeps as possible, since the headphones that are like the ones below have gotten positive revies from alot of people
I know alot of you used the Sony DR-BT10NX but have ya seen the 20x model>? It combines the playback features along with the 11 hour play time!!! I was unable to order them form amazon uk to the USA but i remember a site called audio cubes where i used to get my sony MDR earbuds aloong time ago.. anyways...they have it and i just ordered a pair. they come in white or black. I just bought them for $117.90 USD . Check them out!! I think i am in heaven!!! I was torn between the SOny Ericsson DS970 and the DR-BT10NX which has only volume keys. Do i want playback time or audio controls? This one is both!!!!! Just a tip... buy them with an AMex card to get a 2 year warranty
Check em and tell me what ya think
http://www.audiocubes.com/product/So...Earphones.html
**update++
Just placed my order in Black
**update #2****
The headphones are sold out, but heres the link to Amazon UK if you wanna SEE them and read about it...

alright......
i finally got my headphones...only used them a few minutes but so far they are awesome. they have a very good range,
they are decently loud (about the same as the Sony Ericson Ones) and the sound is very clear and they have alot of bass!!!!!
so far i am loving these headphones.
the call quality is pretty good considering the mic is in the middle of the main unit. i wouldnt recommend walking outside and using the mic while is on your chest. the wind is going to make it sound horrible. but if you lift it up it will sound good.
as far as the incoming audio for calls.it also sounds very good!
So far i noticed though i can only get the commands on the FF or Rewind/play stop to only work with the windows media player and not with the Core Media player. Also sometimes ive gotten the thing that the audio cuts off for a bit but i think its more of an issue with the pocket pc. it cuts alot even when i use headphones, depending on what is running in the background.
The main "unit" its pretty chunky. Its like the DR-BT20NX. The cable that goes around your neck is very strong and it has a side that snaps if the cord is pulled very hard(the right) and the left side has a piece that you can twist to open the cable like a necklace.
it also comes with its own charging stand which looks cool on the desk
i am using farias wm5 rom with the 8mb pool. and the cingular leaked radio rom
I added some pictures for everyone to see..... check em out
I was missing the extra earbuds and the little plastic capsule that holds the eardbuds to protect it... but in a nut shell.. heres what this beauty looks like..............

I have the Sony-Ericsson HBH-DS970's
I think they main unit is smaller, plus it has a caller id display, which is nice, and the microphone is close to the right earpiece, and the left earpiece has a call/end button, which is also nice. Earphones seem similar on each set. Mine work fine with stereo music and with Voice Command.
£17.99 + £3.95 postage

Thanks for the posting and the photos.
It looks like this is my next headset which I'll get as soon as I get my money back for the very 'odd' Plantronics Pulsar 260 with a 43" cable lenth.
Thanks again!

I've bought from them a couple of times before. Received my order every time, although the items do take up to a week to arrive! I've ordered a Sony DR-BT30Q (also available on that site for the same price)!

Thank you for information. Are you in UK or on continent?
Do you happen to know what color of BT30Q (black or silver) they sell ?
I'm in the UK. No idea what colour either, but on Sony's site its recommended retail is £99.01! Seemed like too good a deal to pass on!!

I've bought from them a few times, I always recommend them to people at work ( i work in mobile retail ) they have near ebay prices for mem cards, i think they are on Isle of Man or something like that....
I just got a set of these for my Cingular 8125. They work better than expected! I'm really glad I picked them up. Thanks for the heads up on a nice set of bluetooth stereo earbuds. All functions work and sound quality is great for me!
I'm really glad I got a 4gb miniSD card now!

When I ordered through Amazon, it took me to mymemory.co.uk and for the black model (which was advertised on Amazon). Having said that the order is still "pending" and not yet shipped. How long does it normally take these guys to ship?

I got my DR-BT30QB today and they've worked pretty well so far. The only wierd thing is I've had a little popping problem that occurs once in a while. I'm using an XDA Mini S with Xplore 1.1 ROM. I also have a Dell notebook using the Toshiba stack. I got the popping earlier when I was playing games on my notebook and also had the phone paired to the headphones as well.
Maybe I paired using the wrong profile? But so far, these headphones are nice and I think I can get by with wearing them for long periods of time.
[copy from wizard accessories forum]
Nice to heard useful info like this.
But I dunno whether it will works with my ETEN M600 ROM WWE230. I've tried Sony Ericsson HBH DS970 but the music will not resume after incoming call, then losing the pair, and I have to re-pair everytime.
The only working and good Stereo BT for my ETEN is iTech S35. But it does not have AVRCP. Besides, i'd prefer that pendant necklace design of BT20NX (and SE HBH DS970, has anyone realize they both share some design principle? )than clip-on-shirt approach from iTech.
Anyone can give suggestion?
Ok, forgot my question about ETEN compatibility.
Has anyone also tried Philips SHB7100/27 (Stereo A2DP with AVRCP)? It's quite new i guess.

3.5mm Headphone Jack

Anyone notice that the Headphone input is super awkward? Most of my headphones won't even fit into it properly.
Posted from my Droid Incredible 2
I've noticed mine dont stay in real well.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA Premium App
My headphones don't like to stay in especially with the silicon case on. It drives me nuts when I have my car stereo hooked into jack and it gets bumped a little and all I hear is a pop and loud static. Had a similar problem with my Incredible 1.

Noticed that also. It's a flat jack on a rounded edge... Seems odd to me.

I'm hoping that one of those 3.5mm input extenders might do the trick.

I stil have the issue even when taking off the case.
I guess im one of the very few with no issues at all.
I actually bought a set of those "beats by dre" headphone sets and it fits perfectly. Also works just fine with my subwoofer at work

Bought this and it's been working great. http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10218&cs_id=1021802&p_id=5577&seq=1&format=2
Fit's snuggly in the jack, even with my Otterbox case on.
I also have iBeats by Dr Dre and it fits quite well into my DInc 2.
My brother and I have similar problems with the audio jack. My headphones will fit in but if the cable wiggles I loose connection. The audio stops and I have to unplug and replug the them back in. It makes it so I can't have the phone in my pocket when listening to headphones. I have called Verizon and they said they were not aware of any known issues like this. They sent me a new phone to see if that resolved the problem. I am hoping we got some out of a bad batch...
This issue combined with the lack of root makes me want to sell the phone and get a X2.
No issues with mine either, I have been using it in the gym for the past two weeks and plug into the tape deck adapter in the work truck with no problems
So I called Verizon the other day to explain my problem with the headphones disconnecting after the cord wiggles a little. Their answer was to send me a replacement phone. I agreed and the next day the replacement arrived at my doorstep. Tested the headphone jack on the replacement device and got the same results. After calling Verizon back I waited on hold for an hour while they attempted to duplicate the problem on their end. Their solution was to use headphones without a "L" shapped bend in the connector. They offered to buy me a new pair of headphones so I agreed. I placed my order Amazon today and the Verizon tier 2 level tech will be calling me back Monday to take the charge off my bill. Figured this information may be handy to someone. Good luck!
I understand this is not a fix for a design flaw in the phone but its still a free pair of headphones.
I had the same problem with the lead in my car. I realized the jack was longer than the one on my headphones so I filed the tip off of it w/ a metal file. It seems to work better now.

I tested with a set of Blackberry "L" shaped headphones+mic and they were fine. I wiggled them and spun them and they never lost connection.

Headphones (preferably in-ear) with remote and mic

Hello
Can someone suggest any headphone (preferably in-ear) with remote (for hanging up calls, could include volume controls) and mic for daily use while driving?
Thanks

I'm not sure about how well they work specifically with the Moto g but the Xiaomi Pistons 2 are supposed to sound amazing for the price
The default headset does that.

They really are a very nice and affordable pair of headphones, which indeed sound _really_ nice.
Although only one of the three remote control button works, so you cannot change volume with it, you can pause/play, answer calls and skip to next track though (using the working button). The mic works flawlessly.
I would still recommend these headphones to anyone, but you really have to make sure, you do not buy a knockoff product (I bought mine from ibuygoo.com and they're legit)

Hi,
How does the microphone performs on Pistons 2? I picked up Samsung EHS64 based on good review on head-fi.org, directly from amazon (not some cheap-fake marketplace seller), sound is amazing, mic is also clear, but buttons don't work even with the headset controller app.

wirelless bluetooth headphones for SWR-50 (cheap...)

hello
i just purchased a SWR-50 smartwatch and i want to pair it with wirelless bluetooth headphones for listening music direct to the watch without the need of the phone ,when jogging
Im looking for a cheap one from amazon uk that works properly with the smartwatch sony 3
Do you have any suggestions ?
Thank you all very much

I bought the cheapest ones I could find on amazon, and the only limitation I have is that I have to switch my watch to my right hand otherwise the audio skips.

Yes they do, I have them and the sound is quite loud and clear, satisfied with them.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NZTHGN2?redirect=true&ref_=s9_simh_gw_p107_d0_i1
Use code R5I87BLP to take $10 off. Most are $20 before coupon. Sounds as good as my bluebuds X. Well worth the $10 and then some.
I use the Avantree Sacool Pro paired with the watch for running and they work and sound pretty good (a bit bassy but soundstage is nice and wide) for the price point. Claims to be sweatproof and I haven't had issues in that area yet. Battery life could be better though (3~4 hrs).
I use the Sony SBH-20 with a pair of Yurbuds when running and they are great. £20 ish for the SBH-20 and you supply your own earbuds.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=sony+sbh+20
Is anyone having problems wearing the watch on the left? I've tried 2 different headsets and they only work when my watch is on the right.
