I am using a Plantronics Backbeat. The one I bought came with a dongle that plugs into a non-bluetooth device. So I use the headset with my phone, via bluetooth. And also can hook up to my TV using the dongle. Under $100.

Picked it up last year at Fry's.

I use a Motorola S305 set. They are cheap in price (under $40 at Amazon) but sound pretty decent. Owned them for almost a year with no problems.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
i got a huge list

however of the ones that performed the best

Motorola HT820 the best sound and beat, full feature, easy to use, extra long battery life

as of today i've not found anything that can compare, i've pretty much purchased every sony, jabra, motorola, platonic, all other names i forgot, etc, etc

all the rest were like meh.. 3rd place or worse rating

platonics are the worse

in 2nd place best i'll name Jabra BT8010 super convenient, it kinda sucks in the sound quality for audiophile but gets the job done if you want elegance

What about the LG HBS700: http://www.amazon.com/LG-HBS-700-Wi..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1319749852&sr=1-1 inexpensive, comfortable. great sounding.

Has anyone used one that works with the voice recognition software on the phone? I used to have an old wm5.0 phone that worked great with ms voice command.

I was looking at the Voyager 975. Not sure if it supports the voice though.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] tiguy99:
I'm using the Jawbone Icon with no issues. Acutally it works very well with this headset.

If you use any Jawbone, try using the Platronics 975 ear gels.

They're a perfect match and make the sound volume louder, fuller and more clear over the stock eargel

I use the motorola S9-HD and they work great. Are very comfortable. They have S10 out now. I know the original S9 had battery issues and sweat problems but I suspect most of those issues were caused by the metric ton of counterfeits outs there. Buy from a reputable shop even if it costs $20 more.

I've been using various A2DP headsets for years. Recently though I've been using cheapo rocketfish RF-MAB2 and they're decent... they work well. Good battery, fairly cheap price, rather ugly though and can become uncomfortable after more than an hour or two use.

However recently I read about Jaybird JF3 and they seem to be getting great reviews. I'm hesitant to get them though because they have to be shipped from the USA, there doesn't appear to be a local Canadian source for them. Anyone have any experience with them?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] :
Be cautious as those jbirds look different in person. I was really interested in them until I went and looked at them at best buy. They seem to big for the type of style that they are.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ronin4740:
One of my relatives gave me a Best Buy gift card so I thought I'd get a set of Jaybirds and see if they're any good.

Honestly, I have to say that I like them better than the Motorola S10-HD's I have. They produce more volume and seem to cancel out outside noise better. I think I'll like them even more once the weather warms up and I'm outside working out again.

I can't compare them to the exhaustive list that everyone else has provided but I think they're a keeper at the price.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bkrill:
Haven't tried the earbud style Jbirds but i do have the JayBirds Sportsband and they worked great with my g2x and nexus 1. Haven't tried them with my SGS2 which i just got yesterday but the quality on my older phones were good. I'm not an audiofile by any means but hey served there purpose well. The only thing bad about them is if you wear them for more than about an hour your ears might start to hurt due to them being manufactured to fit snuggly on your ears. If they were like this they would probably fall off your head. Otherwise great product and not to pricey either i think i got mine for lik 85 on amazon six months ago.

Hello

I installed FXP043 on my Arc S with unlocked bootloader. All looked fine but i could not connect with my ant+ sensors :(

I downloaded Ant+ Demo and with the first start I got a message to install "Ant Radio Service". No problems so far and no errors.

I rebooted my phone (ARS says so in the description) but Ant+ Demo tried for 15 min to "enabling ANT ...". With stockROM there is no problem.

Is it, because my lt18i is recognized as lt15i?

Do I have to wait for a new release or is there anything I can do now to get this working?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captainstarbucs:
I've tried EVERYTHING under the sun to get this working.

Here's the deal, my current custom rom, Tesla coil GB is the only thing that lets me add a google account AND connect to Market. Actually, Vicious' MIUI rom works too, but that isn't useable for a phone.

I really want to use BAMF Forever or Cyanogen mod, but every custom rom I throw at my thunderbolt will not connect to the server.

I tried pulling the sim card out and using wifi to connect, I've tried turning on airplane mode and trying to connect, I've tried a factory reset... nothing works.

Getting an account added to the phone isn't the problem here, I can actually do that with the youtube workaround very easily, but even after I do that, every time I try and open the market app, I get an error that flashes up that says "server error" and nothing else, and then crashes when you hit "OK".

I've been sticking with my current rom for a long while because of this infuriating problem. I could really use any help possible. I'm starting to think my phone is defective.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustisLewis:
I think you might be out of luck :(, clockwork doesn't support ADB, and with no hard buttons you have no way to control it. You might just have to stick with SD booting. What kind of card do you have? Get a class 6 sandisk and you should be fine

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nightebreed:
Now, I have been reading and watching videos (qbking77 made some great ones) trying to understand everything before trying to change my phone. Now from what I understand, you need to root your phone, install a kernel, install CWM (preferred method of installing items), install a ROM, and then you can install a theme.

Qbking77 posted a video on "How to root and clockworkmod the Samsung Epic Touch 4G" but in this video it has links for a combined zip that will also install the eg30plus kernel. I have read that this kernel can have a LOS, so people have recommended the LoStKernel. So I take it I need to do individual steps? First root the phone? Then install the LoStKernel? Then install CWM? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Next question is regarding ROMs. There are so many of them, I get confused. Which is good? Is it a matter of which fits best with how people enjoy their phone? If so, I like having as pure of an Android experience as possible (I think that is called AOSP?) with great battery life. I hate bloatware, and want to install the stuff I want on my phone rather than what Sprint puts on it. I also dislike the layout, email, MMS, etc. that Samsung has put on the phone. Suggestions?

Lastly, themes. There are a bunch out there. I have seen some great ones such as brkear1967 ICS one. Though I am unsure. On my HP Touchpad I am using the Honeycomb 3D - SB theme (Awesome Theme) using Theme Chooser since CM7 was ported to it, but I know CM has not done a CM7 for this phone yet, which will probably come after they start rolling out ICS. Anyway, any suggestions when it comes to Themes would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks so much for any and all information people may give. it's really appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nightebreed:
I guess, I am supposed to do Odin with the eg30plus kernel, then I can Odin to the LoStKernel?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] walkaway:
I was not rooted and all I did was odin the lostkernel and I gained root with cwm. From there you can flash whatever you want through cwm. Hope that helps.

Thanks so much!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Akradroid:
I would follow that video you watched.It comes with CWM. Then install this rom:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1304600

It comes with the Lostkernel and is AOSP kinda. Then you can theme to what ever you please.

I recommend to start with this theme:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1315232

great ICS theme.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nightebreed:
That is exactly the theme I wanted to install, but when I went to go install the ROM I kept getting Force Closes of everything. I couldn't even see my screen, only the force closes of the status bar, MMS, etc.

So, I had to take the battery out, and boot into CWM to restore my backup of just the LoStkernel.

Steps I took:

1. Copied zip to my phone.

2. Booted into CWM.

3. Factory Reset / Wipe.

4. Clear Cache.

5. Clear Davik Cache.

6. Install.

After I restored, I applied the SB Rom then put on the Nothin But Honey Theme. A very nice Theme and Rom, but really wanted to try that Theme you had suggested. I think my problem was, since I did these steps for applying the Starburst Rom, that I did a Factory Reset / Wipe instead of:

1. Format System under Mounts and Storage.

2. Wipe Data.

3. Clear Cache.

4. Clear Davik Cache.

5. Install.

I am not sure though. I think I could always, boot into CWM and restore back to just the LoStKernel, then do the steps above for the AOSP Rom then the ICS Theme. But again, not entirely sure.

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nightebreed:
Also, another thing...since installing the above SB Rom and Nothin But Honey Theme, I went from 94% Battery down to 66% Battery in a matter of an hour. That does not seem normal to me.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nykwil:
I'll tell the whole story so you can see how I got to where I was. jump to the end:

-Running bionix 1.3.1 used rom manager to get the new cm7.1.01. Backed up my rom.

-Google apps didn't install (even though I clicked it in rom manager) so I installed gapps through rom manager.

-Gapps installed but couldn't download anything from the appstore Error. I tried many things for a day and decided to restore my old rom with rom manager.

-Vibrant screen for over an hour. Rebooted into download mode and tried to go back to stock (T959UVJI6) with odin.

-Odin had been stuck at "File analysis.." for about 30 minutes so I decided to reboot my phone (this may have been a mistake?).

-When I rebooted it, it was in softbricked mode (phone ! computer).

-I've spent the better part of the day trying different hold and vol+power release power second black screen. (Exhausted forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/6998-howto-recover-from-a-soft-brick-on-your-vibrant/)

-adb can't find the device (although it does show up in odin when I plug it in). Droid explorer can't find the device either.

Am I out of options? I live in canada so I can't just go to a t-mobile store and play stupid.

Thanks, hopefully something comes up that searching hasn't uncovered.

Mine are as follows...

all info in my sig. I use 500-1400 conservative with a 500-500 power save profile set for when the screen is off.

My battery lasts between 28-42 hrs pending my usage level from high - low. YMMV.

200-1400 On demand

nothing else changed in setcpu

using red drop them for theme changer

So, I'm heavily themed, but not much in widgets.

Seems good on battery, can last ~14 hours with moderate to high use.

Stable as well, no major crashes other than the usual browser and market.

I use Voltage Control myself and I've UV'd all across the board by -50. I've also dropped max speed to 1000Mhz. The rest should be pretty self explanatory...

Oh and I can't really list battery life because my usage really varies day to day, by quite a bit. I will say that I definitely get through an entire day with very high usage with no problems at all. Much... MUCH better than when I was running stock.

Day to day performance, there really is no difference than stock, but to compare quadrant, I got ~3300 stock, but at this OC I get ~4400. It's gonna be smooth as butter either way, I just like numbers :D

Display time, I'm not too sure, but my settings are at its 1/3 highest (so not too bright, but not too dim either for me). If I were to approximate, I would say a good 2 hours of the display being on, give or take an hour or too (not the best estimate, but Ill try and keep track next time and report back).

Here's my settings

Main Profile: 200Mhz Min 1Ghz Max running conservative governor. During the day. Conservative is performing better than ondemand for me.

I've also been toying with the up and down thresholds on the conservative governor to find a difference. Haven't really experienced any lag unless I set the up threshold to 90 or over.

Screen Off: 200 Min 500 Max also conservative

Charging: 200 Min 1400 Max ondemand

Battery <25% 200Min 800Max conservative

I've been finding the phone is just as good running at 800mhz max on the main profile. It's amazing how much faster this thing is then my captivate.

As far as voltages

1600: 1450

1400: 1325

1200: 1225

1000: 1100

800: 1000

Not sure what to tell ya. I just installed SetCPU and this is the default settings showing - the same as Voltage Control and what I was referring to. I deleted the boot and profile settings first from Voltage Control and then rebooted, then installed SetCPU.

The only thing I can think of is that since I'm running UnNamed with Entropy's daily driver, maybe the voltage was tweaked from him? I'm only assuming because reading through his thread doesn't seem to indicate that he upped the default voltage on all levels. Unless I missed it somewhere.
