No Info with

- PowerAmp

- PlayerPro Music Player

- 7dontknowfurther player

- WinAmp

tried others, too, but can't remember the name...

Samsung Player works (I don't know exactly if it was the stock player from S2 or from DarkyROM), but I cannot install... I took .apk from a friend's phone, but while installing it displays "app not installed" :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lacour:
Thanks for the info.

I think I'll replace my MW600 with this wireless handset anyway because the clip is broken after I used it too much in the last years.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
I did this... and regret it at the moment...

1. No track info with 3rd party players

2. sony stock player sucks

3. SD card problem (firmware update will come somewhen - I hope)

4. cheap buttons, cheaper than on MW600

5. clip is too wide

6. expensive

7. no chance to read display in sunlight

If the first 3 things could be fixed I would be happy.... got some hope in this! :angel: Or at least find another player who supports the track info over bluetooth (there are some threads about this in PowerAmp forums, so maybe the guys there listen to it). I have no hopes for the Sony player, they love there stupid "SenseME" :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lacour:
Hmm, I think I should wait until they release an update and let's see how it will evolve in the future :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] belek1979:
annoying! have 2 sell it cause i cant running or biking with it ;(

2gb card problem isnt hardware limitation? i remember technology up to 2gb then sdhc up to 32gb...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Well the tech is there, (proof would be the site boasting the 32gig storage as someone mentioned earlier) but it appears the firmware isn't. Hence the previous posts about needing firmware updates :P.

You don't really have to sell it, the headphones come out of the device, so you could just use another pair on them. I am torn between using the provided ones or my Sennheiser headphones at the moment :/.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shahkam:
What is the price and also is it only compatible whit xperia phones ? Id like to use it whit my htc sensation..

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cryonic90:
Got the headset here and thought I would try an older 8 Gb card I had laying around...

And guess what? It works! Copied a few albums over and plays them all...

Don't know what the difference is between my card and the other cards that other people are using? Maybe it's smart to make a comparison?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
Good for you! :-)

But could you please test and copy more than 2 GB or 3 GB to the card?

With a workaround I can see my 32 GB card, too. But when I copy files to it it takes maximum 2 GB and then stops....

---------- Post added at 10:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 PM ----------

Please refer to your local dealer and Sony website ;)

I got mine from a german webshop for about 80 Euro, but official price of most stores in Switzerland is about 120 to 140 Euro... but it's not officially released in Switzerland, that's the reason why I bought it in Germany...

Should work with every bluetooth device, but to get caller info, track info and other stuff you have to ask Sony... their website sometimes is a pain so I do not know exactly what they state at the moment about compatability....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shahkam:
Thanks i dont really need caller info or track info as i dont receive calls that much i just like the design + its almost wire free :)

Sent From My Sexy Sensation.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cryonic90:
I have around 3 GB of data on it right now. Didn't use the headset to copy files over. I used the cardreader that came with it to copy the music to the card.

Only thing I did with the card was a complete format with the SDFormatter tool.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
Aha, then next test: copy 5 GB (or if you don't want to, take the 3 GB you have ;) ) and insert the card in the MW1. On my side it then gives the message "Card Full" and I can't do anything with it...

What Firmware is on your MW1? Mine is on 0.0.A.4.9

Really appreaciate, many thanks! :highfive:

---------- Post added at 08:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 AM ----------

You get a really good headset on this side :good: I love the included FM Radio, and if they fix the SD issue you have a standalone MP3 player as well...

But if you do not need the SD card and the info display, why not taking a MW600? The design is not very good, but it sounds great and is really cheap with about 30 Euro... The included headphones are great...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Hmmm...

So an update on this space issue...I formatted my microSD again (this time only a 4gig(class2), and used SD formatter) and I currently have 3.07 gigs on it. It is seeing the card and playing it....*confused* so it's definitely not a FAT issue...

I am going to slowly bump it up this time, to see how much space it will actually see/want to see...this will be awhile...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
That for sure ;) If I format the card in a card reader, then put it in the MW1 I can see the whole 32 GB... But I cannot copy more than 2 GB to the card :( Whil test again with a 4 GB card, I guess I have one - somewhere *g*
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Well, I'm up to 4 gigs now! and it appears to still be going okay on my 16GB card. What I am noticing though, is that it is progressively doing a sort of hit-and-miss, with actually reading all my tracks.

I will try and explain it:

Card in > power on > pick SD card as music player....then it starts on the "please wait" screen....

Now it sometimes just stops there, and I have nothing, but on the 2nd-3rd search, it picks it all up. It reminds me of my X10, when it sometimes would consider my card corrupt and would have to take it out a few times because it seems like it has a problem reading the overall storage?

Edit: over 5GB now, still working...just off and on not picking up the tracks and saying "no tracks" when initially putting the card in...it appears it gets more random with the size increase.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cryonic90:
And did you also try and copy the music to the card with the cardreader?

That's what I did. I find that copying music to the card whilst in the headset, it's copying very slow....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AnubisNefer:
My thoughts exactly, do you also have the so called lag while searching for an album within the SD card?

If i find an album i want to play, it takes about 5 to 7 seconds to open!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Well now I'm sitting at a little over 7GB and its freaking out on me. I don't think I'm getting the lag, but I sometimes only get one track per album to play. But it is changing per category...for example (don't laugh):

Artists > Abba = everything plays

Album > Abba > Greatest Hits (only album I got on the card) = Only one track plays.

Also, shuffle is playing all tracks....including the ones it refuses to see when sorting through :/...and yes my ID3 tags are correct.

I am also sometimes getting a skip here and there...and a scratching noise when sometimes changing tracks :eek: but that is only temporary..

Yea....so I guess that ends my testing. I will just keep using my phone as my main storage until they figure out what they broke :/.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AnubisNefer:
Why would i laugh at your music taste? :cool:

I'll just be sticking to streaming through bluetooth then, at least until they come up with a firmware update or 2..... These in-ears, volume wise, can go louder than the ''in-the-box'' in-ears which we all got, if i switch to the wired ones, i feel as if the volume is pretty low, compared to the wireless pro.

They certainly pack more ''punch'' if you know what i mean..... A well, let's just wait for the firmware update and hope that resolves all the know issues.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
Did you format it in NTFS or FAT32? I am formatting right now (full format in FAT32) and try again...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
Okay, after full format in FAT32 in the Sony card reader which came with the MW1 and then directly copying about 15 Gigs MP3 to it the headset now plays them :)

And now I have the same (other) problem: in most cases it only displays one song per album or per artist :confused: And it makes no sense that the songs are listed in alphabetical order without the possibility to chose the album when played by Artist... At least it read my playlists correct :) But miss a shuffle play for album, artist and playlist, it's only possible when choosing all songs...

They REALLY have to bring out a FW update asap!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Well I'm glad we are all having the same issue and its not just my device being weird...

So now we wait I guess, hopefully they fix it in the near future :-)

Sony MW1 Save Radio Station

Hello,

My question is irrelevant with formatting the sdcard, but it has to do with the wireless handset pro functionality.

Do you know if we can save the favorite radio stations in the mw1, instead of searching all the time when we enable the radio mode?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
not possible now
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zem2000:
New software out for the Headset Pro, via SUS. Version 0.1.B.0.6
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] belek1979:
any changelog?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
Did not really help:

+ It seems that I now could format the SD with 32 GB directyl in the MW1 (did not try it, but shows correct in Windows dialog)

- In most of Artist or Album folders I cannot change to next song. With last firmware it did not react, in new firmware it PAUSES now

Can't do other tests at the moment... did not even try to pair with XPS, device sucks a little...

- Do other have the same issues?

- Did someone try to use 3rd party players? Does it now show track info?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
Does the new firmware allow the copying of more than 2 gb of files across?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] johnston21:
Resolved my SD card issues, now running 32GB. Haven't checked anything else otherwise...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shmoejoe:
Updated yesterday and it did that whole "card full" error...meh.

So now I am doing it with the card in the device via MediaGo, and it's going good soo far!

It sees and is transferring to my 16GB card with no issues (not even asking for a format! woo!) ...it's just slow, but I think it's also optimizing them for the device. I think my issue is fixed, as soon as it's all done transferring, I will see if it works okay now.

Also, I am noticing its now throwing everything into a 'music' folder, and added a _index and MEDIAGO folder to my card. Before I just had everything sitting in per album on the card with no further organization.

Maybe the 'one track' issue was caused because it wasn't indexing the files properly? Anyways, I'm curious if it works okay now :).

Edit: It appears the album problems are solved now...and it is actually reading all of my songs :) yay!...I will do the space test again, to see if it screws up again at some point, but I think they fixed it? I had to do a factory reset and even a reflash :/...for some reason with my first update it was still a bit screwy...

I will try it out a bit more tomorrow, and report my findings, but it's certainly working better than the firmware before it :P.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
As of an entry in the sony support forum they are working on the issue and will bring out another update asap... we'll see :fingers-crossed:

But great news: the latest build 508 of PowerAmp (only available on their website at the moment) displays track info on the MW1! :good: really cool!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lacour:
That would be great. Another reason to buy this headset to replace my old one.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AnubisNefer:
Okay, so i formatted the 2 gb microsd card (fat32) and copied 1 album straight to the root.

After putting the headset on, i checked and it made an index map, but now when i want to play the album it says, NO SONGS AVAILABLE?

I have updated to the latest software, am i doing something wrong?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
Wait for the next update, the SD mp3 player is very very buggy...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] fyrestrtr:
Has anyone figured out why the device beeps when listening to the radio? No alerts from the phone but every few minutes it will beep.

It also does this same annoying beeping when streaming audio from the phone.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mikereidis:
Been meaning to get an MW600 one of these days, but saw this, which appears to be a successor and grabbed it instead.

I'm hoping I may be able to enable FM over Bluetooth in some phones, so I bought this for testing.

I'm happy to see the firmware update doesn't need some silly Windows program. I've been peeking at the 0.1.B.0.6 file and I can glean some info:

- ST-Ericsson STLC2690 Bluetooth and FM chip: www.stericsson.com/products/stlc2690-bluetooth.jsp

- STMicroelectronics STM32F2xx MCU: http://www.emcu.it/STM32/STM32F2xx/STM32F2xx.html

- MicroC/OS-II RTOS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroC/OS-II

- Wolfson WM8904 CODEC: http://www.wolfsonmicro.com/products/codecs/WM8904/

Would be fun to hack this thing, but I keep too busy with my "normal" FM app.

Sony released the source code for the 2011 SE phones FM apps, but I don't imagine they'd release the source code for this device, especially since it probably has code from other companies.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
Ok so I have transferred 5 gb to a 32 gb card and dont have any problems yet. I transfered through mediago and then tested it out. Seems to be working fine. I really like this thing alot. It should have come with a lanyard too, though I had an old iriver one that worked good.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
I have had the Xperia MH1C Smart Wireless headset pro for about a week now, so I will do a mini review.

Pros

Wireless- Works pretty well, bluetooth can skip every once in a while, but it is so rare it doesn't bother me at all. It connects really easily and auto pairs great.

Micro SD slot- I love this feature as I bike alot and would rather take a small device then lug around my phone.

Package Contents- You get a charger, microsd reader, headphones, micro usb cord, 2gb card, and the device itself for 100 bucks. Considering a decent microsd reader costs 15-20 dollars it is a pretty good deal.

Headphones- I have always liked Sony's headphones and have used them for years. These are no exception, the bass is clear and the treble is not too loud. You can't even begin to compare cheap headphones like the Skull Candys to these. I don't believe in spending a ton on earbud headphones and these fell right in the price range for what I want. They fit great even with my smaller ear canals. People have complained about the cord being stiff, but I think it's a great step forward. My problem has always been tearing the cord or getting it really tangled. This cord will be hard as hell to tear as it is really tough. Also it feels really good. My trick for wearing them is to use the supplied clip on the longer right earbud cord and attach the clip to the rear collar of my shirt. This makes it impossible to pull the right earbud out when turning your head. I have played golf and ridden my bike with them and had no issues whatsoever.

Looks- Some people might think it is ugly but I think it looks great. Similar to the Xperia S.

Battery Life- The device easily lasts a week for me

Software works good- no problem with the additional features

Cons

SD Card playback sucks. Sometimes it will recognize the whole album and sometimes it won't. It is also kind of slow when going through songs, but not too bad. Also sometimes it won't return to the previous track when using the button, the left button does play/pause instead.

Gmail App for it will destroy your battery, it really eats battery life.

Size- The device could be a bit smaller, but for the sound quality and features it is acceptable

Needs a carrying case, Sony should have included one for the price

The clip is sturdy but it would be nice if it rotated as well.

Should have come with a lanyard but I was able to find an old one I had laying around and use that with it. It is an iRiver lanyard and works really good.

Spotify?

I just got the Acro S, to KEEP it waterproof I'm getting this so the headphone port can be kept closed...

Will this work with Spotify, ie. play stream from the app (perhaps Sony made this "diffucult", u never kniw...) and will the play/pause/skip buttons work? Regarding the display, will it show track info as well?

I'm keen to find out if this BT headset will save som phone battery. Not turning on screen to use buttons and not driving the speakers...

Sony Smart Wireless Headset Pro - Review

WOW!

Pro:

- Light

- Sleek

- Esthetically design (ie. it looks expensive)

- Great headphones

- Flat cable (tangle free) headphones

- It has a wide clip, strurdy

- Nice, unobtrusive display. Would a color LCD make it better? No, IMO it would look less for it)

- Long battery life

- Bundled accessories: microSD adapter, short micro USB cable, Micro USB charger

- Smart Apps; SMS, Mail, Call Log, Calender on device display

- Update device via phone

- Price, it's really not that bad when proper headphones are equal in price and you get FM/MP3 bundles as well

- Keeps my Acro S waterproof since I don't have to open the headphone flap.

- GREAT SOUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cons

- Glossy is as glossy does, fingerprint hell!

- Short headphone cable means you can't use it on other devices and that you can't keep the BT dongle in you pocket if you wanted to

- 2GB microSD card? Come on, it goes straight in the trash and it's 2012. Skip it, or ship larger.

- Won't display song info from Spotify.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
I'm thinking of buying this headphone, as my Jays One+ right earphone is with poor contact. Someone could tell me how long is both cables (right and left ear ones)?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
42 cm

22 cm

+ 30 cm cable to device
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
Thanks. This is enough for me :P

Now I'm going to ask my grandma to give me this... (Early Christmas present)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sebastian768:
Connecting the device with USB cable, it won't be recognized by the computer (Vista) or in Mediamonkey.

Using the usb adapter, I can easily move songs over to the Transcent 8GB microSDHC I have.

Songs play, everything works. Artist, Songs, Albums, Shuffle....except for the one thing I need to work...Playlists. It only showns "No Info" and I can't play any songs. It does show up under the "Playlist" folder, but nothing happens....any solutions?

The card shows up as "Android Device" in my mediasoftware. Are there any special settings needed for this to work?

Cheers

new software

Hi all just thought id drop by and say there's a new software release, though to caveat that SUS hasn't worked fro me and the standalone bin file isnt available to DL yet :)

http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/306121#306121

A new update (0.1.C.0.3) for Smart Wireless Headset pro is now being rolled out. I suggest that you use SUS to update.

http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/

Software improvement:

- improved micro SD card compatibility and handling

- improved mp3 player functionality and playlist handling

- progress bar added for indexing of music

- Japanese caller-ID improved on non-Android phones
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Yezariael:
wondering what that should be.... didn't notice anything changed... but the album-play now seems to work, just tested some minutes so no final statement...

not true. just a "please wait" or nothing mentioned while indexing my music!

and worst of all: still no improvement of other functions:

- still just random play for all music, not for albums or artists :(

- still no radio station memory :(

- radio still starts scanning every time you start the device. it does not remember the last used station :(

I will test further and report if anything significant changes. To see that Sony needed nearly 3 months for this "update" it's a shame to see that nearly nothing changed!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
Thank god! This update is a big improvement. Device is more responsive and my 32gb stick seems to work so far. I filled it with 5gb and it seems to work great. Ill update this post as I find more out.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ofiaich:
hi!

Yes, glad to see the update is here, and I have applied it.

Time to check it out. I sent a friend in Japan my 16gb card with photo's of our travels on China and Italy... and she has sent it back..

:laugh: Point being I should have a 16 gb card to try soon!

Ofiaich ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
Nice sounds fun, I would love to go to Japan, China, and Italy. I've got a 32gb card with 10 gb transferred and it is working well so far.

Hi everybody! I've just bought the handset and I've to say I'm satisfied with this product. The only problem I've is concerning the playlists: I've tried with Media Go but I wasn't able to obtain playlists on the handset.

Works great :good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] eirh:
Well, first of all its HEADset, not handset, since you wear it on your head and not your hand.

bluetooth connectivity : no problems with Sola GB, I had issues when pairing this and the SmartWatch on ICS

standalone mp3 player: yes, and quite cool, due to the size. it has it's own SD card.

notifications: not only missed calls, but it can read your emails and received sms into your ear :victory: (provided that you are using GB and not ICS)

battery time: decent. i haven't measured, but i think it gets me through 2-3 days.

downsides: I don't like the headphones. I don't get the idea of this rubber things you're supposed to plug DEEP into your ears to hear the sound normally (otherwise the bass is missing).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
It's an in ear headphone. That's why? And it is much better. The sound doesn't scape (hate people listening to music on a high volume and I can hear the song), and also isolate you from the rest of the world (not annoyed by environmental sounds)

"What really matters in this world, anyway?"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] eirh:
I'm tempted to say it's because of your music choice :cyclops:

But it's actually the meta data stored in the mp3 file. That's the key. Check it again.

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 PM ----------

Well, glad you like it. I don't get it since in order to hear the music properly I need to stick them really DEEP in my ears, and that does NOT feel comfortable. Also, they don't stay there too long, they are falling off quite easily.

The only way I can get the isolation effect you mention is that I press them with my hands.:eek: Which you (obviously) cannot do for a long time.

If I'm doing something wrong, please correct me, I'm a redneck, maybe I don't know how to use this technology. :cowboy:

P.S. My ears are properly cleaned. I don't know if that's an advantage or disadvantage in this case. :o
