HBH-DS970 Bluetooth problem / HT820 review

[superman101]

I'm having problems with this stereo bluetooth headset. I can pair with it fine from a few meters away but I can't play music from it unless my phone is almost touching the reciever phones:eek:

I think i've tried everything, been through a hard reset and installed the bluetooth hotfix but no luck.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks superman101

EDIT: I couldn't fix the connection problem so i returned them and just ordered a pair of ht820 i'll let you guys know how that turns out

I got my ht820s today and all i can say is that they are AWESOME:D

The range is incredible i can get the advertised 10 meters (33 feet) with ease, and indoors the signal rips through walls:eek:

Most of the buttons work answer/reject, call hold, answer 2 calls + switch between or merge them, redial numbers, dial a number using voice command

(not sure is msvc will work as i don't have it, if someone does and has these headhones i would appreciate it if you could fill me in as i would definately be interested in msvc if it works with these)

The battery is great too with 17 hours call time, 12 hours music playback and 500 hours standby, I'll update what these actually are when i have tested them fully.

The soud quality is also ace and all music buttons work with audio manager and windows media player (probably most others aswell) The problem that some people have that the music will play through speakers doesn't happen either. Loud as most people will probably want but the base is not the best i've ever heard but great for wireless headphones.

Very comfortable with ear hooks and no pain whatsoever after 5 hours, they will not fall off when jogging or in the gym as they are very secure ( Ijust couldn't shake them off:D)

I got mine for £17 from ebay deliverd and new (amazing value in my opinion:D) i recomend these to anyone who wants great quality headphones that won't break the bank, worth much much more

Do these headsets have USB charging or some proprietary charger is required.

[superman101]

They use a standard mini usb charger so the tytn II charger will work along with the usb connection and any motorolla mini usb chargers you have:D

I have got a HBH-DS970 and have paired it well with my kaiser. I have checked both the Wireless Stereo and Hands Free options. However, only the stereo is working when I play music, but when I answer a phone call, the bluetooth headset icon is gone, and the sound comes out from the handset itself.

Can anyone help me please? :confused::confused:

You need to edit the registry to this setting
\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings: BitPool: 512 (Decimal), SampleRate: 96000 (Decimal), UseJointStereo: 1 (Decimal).
I have been using this setting after experience disruption and range issues, and this setting fix all the problem i know. except display song play and name of caller.

[amrkk]

what kind of software to edid the registry
thanks

[luanminhle]

google PHM Registry editor, best tool, can be install into external memory card and in the event of hard reset your phone you can go to storage card directory under program folder and run the registry editor without reinstall. Good luck.

I use the DS970's as well. To answer calls through the headset, its best to hit the play/answer button on the lanyard instead of hitting the answer button on the phone. Not sure if its supposed to be like this, but honestly I prefer it. That way i have the easy choice of using the headset or not when the phone rings.

I have tried this but it doesn't work because when the phone ring, the bluetooth icon on the phone disappeared immediately and the voice came out from the phone not the headset.

I have tried this setting, however, I can only set the Bitpool value and UseJointStereo value. And it doesn't work for me.

Anyone help please?

Installed advanced config tool by Schap (attached).

Under 'bluetooth' select use joint stereo:no; bitpool:64; maximum supported bitpool:80; minimum supported bitpool:14.


These settings work perfectly on my Ds970s with no stuttering or performance issues whatsoever.
