Hi,
I'm somewhat of a noob regarding Tytn/Hermes updates etc. Hopefully someone can help me with this problem.
I just bought a Jabra BT620s bluetooth headphone. Connecting works but when I play music in Windows Mediaplayer, the music sometimes stops as if it's buffering a stream.
Does anyone know if this has something to do with a bad connection or should I install some other musicplayer on my PDA? Or is it because the Jabra is just a worthless headphone?
thanks in advance
this has been noticed by several folks now. also problems such as slowing down and speeding up of the audio.
My tests have concluded that i couldnt run my bluetooth head set and bluetooth gps at the same time. on its own the headset was great.
Check you have nothing running as well as wmp also if it is an a2dp headset do a search for the way to add support somewhere on here.. sorry dont know the link.
Music skipping on me as well
I just bought the BT620 - and tried several music players - they all skip. Sometimes I can get thru an entire song and other times it skips so bad as to cal it worthless. The speed up and slow down pitch is very annoying.
Is the issue the headset or the BT stack the MDA uses.
Is there a fix/hack ?
Thanks
I just purchased the Cingular 8525 and BT620s. I can only get the headphones to work as a telephone headset. They will not work with the media player at all, the sound comes from the handset everytime. I have tried pairing them several times, but with no success. Any ideas?

Same Problem. But my BT620s does not work with AVM Blue!Fritz, MDA3 nor with a Logitech DiNovo Desktop. I'm getting angrrrry...
Actually, I got it fixed. With the headset on, and paired, goto the communications manager (second button down on the right side of the handset) and click on settings>bluetooth settings. Then go to the Devices tab. If the heaset is paired with the 'phone you will see it in the list. Click and hold the stylus on the Jabra BT620s item and a pop-up menu will appear. Select "Set as Wireless Stereo". Majically the 620s headset will start flashing both earphones (instead of just one) and it works fine. The headset will automatically switch from phone mode to A2DP mode from that point on. It's slick. I have not encountered the buffering problem reported by others.
Good luck...
Just got my bt620s's and am having the same issue. thought that reducing the quality with fit4cat would work, but nothing seems to fix it. also, for some reason the X-button functionality of spb pocketplus is gone when listening to music with my 8525. After pairing the headphones with my G5, sound quality is worse then than that of the 8525, but I experienced no pauses or skips with the computer, however massive pauses (almost a minute) with the 8525. Tried using mortplayer and wmp. I think these are getting returned unless any of you have found a fix in the meantime. Not to mention the entire phone slows to a crawl, not good.
I too use the Jabra BT620s with the 8525. I also have buffering problems. However, the Jabra also freezes (i.e., locks) the 8525. Bottom line, the Jabra BT620s is being returned.
Hi, I just posted a new thread where I explained how I got the whole thing working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293054

Mono instead of Stereo !?!?
Mind the fix of CrazyBrit above, it made the BT 620s jump to Audio mode (both earpieces flashing). The problem with interupted streams got fixed once I shut the WLAN / WIFI function of while listening to music. Remember: WLAN and BT use the same frequency band. In a "normal" data stream interferences are a side issue, but in realtime streams - fatal.
However, even that everything seemed fine with my set, I only hear MONO audio, ie. the left and the right earpiece give exactly the same audio. Now i am stuck. Any hint for me? I got a Swisscom / Vodafone v1605 OEM of the HTC TyTN plus the BT620s. Anybody aware of a firmware update, a software fix or a tricky setting?
Thanks,

Well guys ....
I used to have the skipping issue as well , seems to be either a a2dp hack issue , or the ROM is too slow to handle streaming and decoding siultaneously !
Not any more .......
I started using XM6 , and WOW , I can run pocket player without overclocking , and I can finally get pocketmusic to run smoothly and stream a2dp !
So give it a try , worked for me , may work for u !
I am running the bt620s with wm6, everythnig works beautifully. It also worked great with wm5, but 6 is better.
Now for me, these 2 settings made a world of difference as far as quality goes:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/Bitpool=60
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/MaxSupportedBitpool=35 (or greater)
ok, this has been plaguing me and preventing me from switching permanently to 2.2 since the camera has been fixed.
the problem:
you pair your bluetooth device and connect. media works fine. then disconnect and turn off bluetooth and the bt device. turn everything back on, and media won't play through the bluetooth device.
the cause:
well, i have been using the same jabra sp700 for a few years now. worked great on all my devices (iphone 2g, iphone 3g, dream, various nokias and my x10 up to 2.1). well, apparently 2.2+ android requires a bluetooth device that supports avrcp or the avrcp handling of 2.2+ roms require avrcp to work on the bluetooth device. however, my sp700 (and i would imagine other older bt devices) either do not have this or it doesn't work as android wants it to.
the solution (tested multiple times, works sometimes, not others):
pair and connect, go into settings and disable "phone audio" for the bluetooth device.
kind of sucks since this is my car speaker phone, but i use it for media more than i use it for phone. but i have connected/disconnected several times and media is still playing through the bt and not the phone speaker.
so those who have bt media problems with 2.2+ roms, try this, it may work for you.
will this fix the problem? http://www.foogod.com/android/ ?
it is the same with MW600 headset on Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 0.54 ROM.
what happens for me:
both devices were paired in the past and remember each other. I turn on BT on the phone and power on the headset. press play in the music player - nothing plays, it hangs and come back to paused state.
when I press play for second time music comes from headphone speaker.
what helps:
stop the playback at this point. turn the headset off and on again. press play and the music should play through it. with both music headset and phone audio profiles active.
this is how I have to do it every single time. headset works normaly afterwards until you turn the BT off on the phone again. it's just a little inconvenience.
what troubles me more are the short gaps in the playback you get about every minute and when you turn the screen off.

does not work
what about the method I wrote about? I think it is the same problem.
power off/on your headset again when the music starts playing from the headphone speaker used normally for calls. every single time this happens it fixes this for me.

that was working on and off for me. sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.
i made some modifications to the bluetooth audio.conf, will test those on my way home tonight.
no problems here with my bluetooth and i'm using wolfbreaks' 2.2 rom. i'm using a sony dr-bt50 headphones.
I've been having this problem with my headset too (hbh is800) and I'll try once I get back from home. Hopefully it works. I've tried the foogod link before and it never helped. I've been experiencing the bluetooth problem with my watch too (mbw 150) it connects and later it disconnects. and the cycle keeps repeating.
I have the same problem with dante-fu. I use Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 v0.54 ROM and MW600 headset. But turn on/off headset doesn`t help me sometimes and I have to re-pair devices.
I'm too having some problems with my mw600 head set.
Sometimes it does not play through the Bluetooth headset but through the speaker of the phone (it happens rarely)
But the most annoying thing is after a call, my headset just freezes & nothing works expect for the power button. Only solution is to turn the device of & turning on it again.
Using Wolf's 2.2 CM ROM
well, this sucks, i've tried changing all the media configs and nothing.
only solution i can think of is porting the bluetooth stack from 2.1 to 2.2.
back to 2.1 since my bt speaker is the only option for music in my car since my kid decided to deposit $.42 into my cd player.
Blutooth Media streaming problem
Hello,
Has anyone had any luck resolving this issue?
It's starting to drive me crazy. Bluetooth phone calls work perfectly but media streaming works intermittently.
Is there an easy way to replace downgrade the blutooth stack?
I am running CM 6.13
Is anyone facing issues getting sound to play from their bluetooth headset when paired with the Asus Transformer Prime? Have you been able to resolve it? I have been able to pair it without a problem but the sound doesn't stream. I'm on TW_9.4.2.15
So far, I've seen a few threads but no answers that have been confirmed. Any thoughts? Also, confirmation that this problem still exists would be helpful, thanks!
Bluetooth headset connects but can't stream audio
[Q] Bluetooth not working (not bad connection, it connects just doesnt do anything)?
Bluetooth Disappointment
Bluetooth headset and Transformer Prime (ICS)
inline mic or bt headset
I am now on Virtuous Prime, but also had this working previously on stock .15. I have Motorola S9-HD Bluetooth headphones working. I have also gotten music audio to stream to my Plantronics m155, so it does work, but can be a little fiddly.
Process that works for me is as follows (and I know there is no particular reason for any of this, but it is what works so I do it this way).
1. Start Google Music, hit play so music starts, then pause the music.
2. Turn on the headphones and let them pair to Bluetooth.
3. Settings->Bluetooth, go to the headphones and and make sure you have both the Phone Audio and Media audio profiles checked (this is where MOST times the issue is on my TFP)
4. Press play on your headphones.
Again, no rhyme or reason why, but it does work for me this way.
Cheers,
Peter
I have the Samsung HS3500 and HS3000 and both work fine for streaming audio out of the Prime.
In general I just have to turn on the Prime's bluetooth, then turn on the headset I want to use (they look for connections when turned on, so if the tablet's bluetooth isn't already on they won't connect) and it connects after a few seconds and works perfectly.
I don't know if I am just getting lucky with the Prime's bluetooth but I haven't had any problems streaming content from the internet such as Netflix and listening to it with my bluetooth headsets.
If you are looking to just listen to music and video on your Prime you could give the HS300 a try, it isn't expensive:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Stere...WK5E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330989035&sr=8-1
However if you want a bluetooth that is easy to use while driving I would suggest the:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Black..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1330989270&sr=1-2
Both can be used to listen through headphones (the 3500 requires you to use the included headphones, or listen through the included adapter). The HS3000 can also be used for calls, since there is a mic next to where the headphone plugs in, however the 3500 is easier to use while driving.
Thanks for the suggestions! pbrauer I tried your workaround, and it didn't work out, but I learned something... I have no media audio profile, only the phone profile. I have been doing more research on the matter and it looks like it could be incompatibility between mono earpiece/headsets and android in general.
My headset is an i.Tech Clip II mini 606 mono headset, and it doesn't appear to have a2dp technology. Looking at what's posted on other android forums unrelated to the Transformer Prime, some have tried software such as BTmono and SuperMonoFroyo to reroute the audio feed. Unfortunately, no dice... I'll keep researching to see if I can find any solution - if I find a solution elsewhere, I'll make sure to post back here so it can help others.
Almightywhacko, I'm going to try and struggle with this for a bit longer since I just got out of university and would prefer to stay away from getting further in debt, at least until I get a job. But once I get a job, and if this issue persists, I might go for one of those, thanks!
I have Transformer TF300T and I have problems with my two stereo bluetooth headsets (Dell and Jabra). Headphones pair with no problems, but then there is no sound. Sometimes reset (turning off/on) helps, I also tried to hard reset the tablet - this helped too, but only temporarily. After some time of listening, sound disappears. And these are my BT headsets that I use all the time with my mobile phone, without any problems.
I have also noticed, that when there is a problem with a Bluetooth headset sound, and I try to display film (using MX Player), film stops for a while every one second. It looks like there is a heavy process in the background, that makes the film perform bad. When I turn off the Bluetooth (or I have a luck, and there IS sound in my BT headset), film is displayed perfectly well.
TF300T has Bluetooth 3.0 on board, my headsets are BT 2.x. Could this be a problem? (o.k., I do know, that BT 3.0 is compatible with 2.x, but still, this is life, and who knows ?)

SO GLAD to hear I'm not the only one with this problem! To date the best answer anyone can give me is: "not all brands of Bluetooth Headsets work on the Transformer Prime"- what???
My Jawbone Icon didn't work & I had it a year before I bought the TP. Somehow I lost the Icon so I bought the newer Jawbone Era, and it doesn't work either. It pairs just fine & I can hear sound but when using Google Voice /Talk, I can't speak into the BT mid and be heard.
Really sucks! My 2 year old Droid 2 phone has no problem with either BT headset. Very frustrating not to know why they don't work??
Anyone experience this? connected to the car bluetooth, but when i off the infotaintment and stop the car, the music continue playing using the phone speaker. H'mmm not a bit issue but very troublesome to stop what is playing every time
I read in a review that there's a setting you can change which lets you have music continue playing after removing headphones or have it automatically pause, I believe this setting will also affect bluetooth audio as well, perhaps this will help? I can't say if it is this though, I haven't got mine yet but it will be good for me to know too as I connect my phone to my car's stereo via bluetooth and will do the same with the Z2.
Hello everyone. Has a Plantronics Voyager Legend BT-headset and Android 8 on SGS7.
Sometimes (1-2 times in a week) I experienced a problem with BT audio-sound: audio, that might route to BT-headset, comes to a phone speaker. After phone restart this problem gone for 3-4 days, then it repeats again. There is no reasons for this issue, just in one moment after pairing BT-headset audio-sound (like music or notifications readers) goes to a speaker (maybe before pairing, I don't know, in some moment that I can't catch).
BUT phone GSM voice call sound doesn't route to a speaker, only BT Audio does.
Who can explain, what is going on with this? I had the same issue on Android 6.0.1 and believed that after Android Oreo upgrade I get rid of this, but I was wrong, it pursues me.
Thanks to all help.
