Got mine today! So - bought 4th May from the US, arrived 8th May signed-for delivery. That's pretty impressive. According to the receipt their actual postage costs are $24.80 for that service, so $20 - £10 - for eBay fees, time to pick and post the item (US Postal Service, if they use post offices then these usually involve a drive out and a wait, during business hours, even if they are using online payment/postage label printing facilities from eBay).

I don't think their postage charges are entirely unreasonable.

The device itself seems great - does exactly what I hoped it would do. Admittedly it's Yet Another Gadget to keep charged and try not to lose (I lost my original HBH-35 headset, and I was annoyed because it was really comfortable and reliable). I'll still use my BSH-100 headphones (or get better ones) for music and so forth, but this makes the Ameo totally useful as a phone - and given the rates T-Mobile give you for minutes, NOT using the Ameo as a phone is a bit of a waste!

Well, I really would get the Style-I £40 isnt so bad, but I want stereo. I dont want to have two headsets. (style-I + stereo headset)

I ordered the iTech R35 clip headset. It has Media controls for volume/track skip/play pause as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack. This means I can use standard headphones as well as still get all the BT calling benefits. Im looking for a nice pair of minidisk headphones now (they have extra short leads) to use with it. Ill let you know how I get on with it when it arrives.

I have the Plantronics Pulsar 590A headset, this is amazing. It has to be the best headset solution ive come across so far. The sound is great and it works for calls so well. Swapping between calls and music is easy and the buttons work without having to fiddle for ages. I would be using this every day if it wasnt for the fact that the charger socket has broken and I cant get them to charge :( The addition of a Bluetooth transmitter for my iPod makes it so usefull. I can even plug the transmitter into my PSP/DS etc and game while still able to take calls.

I bought a cheap I-Wing stereo headset from Maplin UK for £30. This works well, is very compact and apart from reasonably poor bass (not unexpected) its an ok solution. Easily pocketable and not too obtrusive when left around the neck.

I rate the Plantronics as the best ive used, but not entirely practicle for all day at work due to the size and the fact you look like a DJ with them round your neck.

Jabra BT8010 sounds very good to my ears for music listening. it's surprisingly quite Euphonic and unexpected.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] cayotte:
One of the most important feature of BT8010 is that it can vibrate. Really a perfect match when used with Athena.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wu5262:
it all depends on how much degree of music listening you want to go, personally, i care very much for the music listening experience, anything wireless sounds bad in my ear, and yes i can notice the different easily. This all depends on different people.

However i do agree that Jabra BT8010 is a good BT headset, btw, have you guys manage to show Name ID on the screen now?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] jlingo:
Haha of course you can't compare with your ACS earphones. I paired them with supermacro and resulting in astounding sound quality ever.

No I haven't managed to show Name ID on the screen.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wu5262:
wow, another thing we have in common, i pair my ACS with Super Macro LE :)

nice little amp.

btw, since you are using your amp on Athena, do you mind telling me what cable you use to connect them? I am having problems with my old cable, it doesn't lock inside the Athena jack that well
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] di2307:
I got Style I handset today. The black one! I am very impressed. Nice and works great. I belive it is the best headset I ever had.

Looks like it has some problems though:

1. screen is not bright enough for outside

2. easy to miss call - short and quiet ring

3. external wired headsets (I tried 4 of them) sound bad with it

This accessory turns x7500 into a real phone! :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Deiota:
Hello!

I also bought the black version of it! Is it really from LG? Or just fake?

The sound doesnt seem good at all! People talk a lot about noise on conversations and it keeps unpairing and saying out of range!

Is this normal??

Best regards

Did you get your Plantronics 590A to work via BT connection to your Athena? I'd really appreciate your reply. Thanks.

Best Stereo headset

i think the best stereo head set is the motorola motorokr. its stereo very good quality headset. the sound quality is better than some of my regular headsets. also the battery life is unbeliveably good. its water resistant and its ahead of the bluetooth market game. u can control volume up/down. next track/prev track. answer calls , redial, and u can pause and play music. it retails for 100usd, but if u go on ebay you can buy on auction easily for 30usd. the fact is, this bluetooth headset is a must for music.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] ollli3d:
mmh, well this is all about the LG ... how about

after reading all this and me being a fan of man toys, I must find it and check it out, but, has anyone tried the HAMA stereo BT set, superb sound, never ever lock ups or connection issues, long battery life and a quick button menu to make, switch and receive calls, best of all, the sound quality and wmplayer navigation, the auto switch back to phone on incoming etc ...

though, I found it in only 1 store, tried many other incl jabra, which I gave to my woman, she enjoyed it more :)

:D indeed so
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Rick76:
I am using the Tritton TRI-BH102, which is similar to the iTech clip. It has a good "blue on black" OLED display which is readable in any light and minimizes battery drain. The whole "body" of the unit is black and in the form of the letter 'U', which slides over your pocket, jacket or inbetween the buttons on a shirt.

There is an "ON-OFF" slider on the back and one "CONTROL" button on the front along with a "VOLUME" rocker switch. The display is completely dark unless you are activating something or a call comes in (no blinking lights at all). The mic is on the top or rounded part of the 'U' beside the 3.5mm plug.

It comes with one mono earbud on a 16" wire and a stereo ear bud set, one bud is 16" and the other is about 28". It sounds best with my Sony MDXL71's though and the only drawbacks are no vibration and only number display (no name).

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murerlars:
Hi

I've got a problem with the screen on my OPO. As you can see on the pictures, all icons and text is double. It's almost like a shadow on everything.

I've tried to install new firmware(CM11s, CM12, ColorOS) and new Recovery and resetting the phone but nothing helps.

The phone is working fine and I have no problems pressing the icons or typing a text.

I'm already in contact with my dealer and they say it's a hardware problem and I have to sent it back(Warranty).

But I'm not quite sure that it's a hardware problem, that's why I'm asking here.

Anybody experienced something similar???

Hi, I just bought a second hand sensation XE (I had a sensation but I bought this one for my mom), and now when I want to turn it on it doesn't boot, and even when I hold the power button and the volume down button the same thing happens (maybe the volume buttons are defective?):

your device boots in ruu mode

you need to flash a ruu.exe for the device

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
thanks a lot, do you mean that I can just connect the phone to the usb port and then run commands via fastboot? the phone doesn't get to the fastboot, and when I connect it to the USB port it does the same thing and fastboot and adb don't find any phones.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
in ruu mode if you type fastboot devices what does it show you?

AFAIK in any case if you double click the ruu.exe while in ruu mode it will work
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
thanks again for replying, it shows an empty line, and the windows says that it was not able to recognize the last usb device attached.

which ruu.exe do I have to use? I don't have the CID and device version and etc.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
instal adb and fastboot from here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1152148

after that try from ruu mode fastboot reboot bootloader
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
I have them installed, but now I found out that the fastboot utility doesn't work, can you help it here? because it doesn't work on my old sensation which is functional currently too .
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
here is what I get in device manager when I power up the phone:

Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
Man I don't know what is that:(
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
okay, that was windows 8.1's problem, now I'm using win7, it recognizes the phone, but when I send the fastboot reboot-bootloader command it restartes to the same RUU mode, and not bootloader mode, but when I disconnect the USB then the bootloader comes and it has only one option, and that is RUU.

what should I do to get to the bootloader mode when the USB cable is attached?

also when I run the RUU exe file I got from androidruu.com, it doesn't open, there just opens a window asking for admin privileges and when I confirm nothing happens.

thanks.

--------------------------------

EDIT:

The downloaded RUU was faulty, downloaded another one it's working. sorry about the mistake.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
run the ruu.exe as administrator

otherwise download the ruu from here

Now I'm using another RUU:

the problem is that it sticks at 37% and it doesn't go further, I've let it for 1 hour and no change. :crying: :(
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
if you can contact to the previous owner and ask him what did he do to the device

probably some partitions are malfunctional

also what the bootloader details are
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
thanks again, I emailed the seller and I'm currently waiting for his response. Now how can I check if the partitions are right and functional? then if one of them is corrupted is there any way to fix it using software?

also I have tried another RUU and it's stuck at 39%.

p.s: I guess the system partition is faulty because in 39% it keeps saying Updating System..............., and the dots after it change rather slowly than before.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
i can't tell you what exactly is going on with the partitions(probably with the /system is the issue)

that's why i told you to ask the seller
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
The seller says that he was charging the phone, then the phone asked for a code (I have no idea what sort of code, maybe some pattern?), then he brought it to somewhere to flash the phone, then the phone is stuck in this screen and the person who flashed the phone said that you have to bring it to the htc service center and the seller had no time to bring it to there so he sold it. :eek:

btw I have teamviewer if you have the time.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
didn't you ask him what kind of code?

was the device locked to a network carrier?

did he root it?

S-ON or S-OFF?

and the other guy what did he do to flash the phone?

unfortunately that period i am very busy with my work
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
well, in my country carriers don't lock phones so I don't think that it was locked by the carrier. btw he's a complete noob so he doesn't know anything, but the phone is s-off and I guess the guy was trying to flash a rooted rom to it and he failed, hboot 1.27.000, firmware 3.33.401.106, radio 11.24a.3504.31, openADSP-v05.60.2226.00.0418

and in the top of the hboot screen it writes **RELOCKED** so I guess he s-on-ed the phone again.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
no

relocked and S-ON or S-OFF are different

probably it is still on S-OFF

the other thing you can do is this

http://xdaforums.com/htc-sensation/help/recovering-data-mount-issues-t2859588

but you have to flash a custom recovery first
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
sorry, my bad, yes it's still s-off.

to install a recovery I have to flash a PG58IMG.zip file in the bootloader, but the only thing I get in the bootloader is this and it doesn't search for flash files in the sd card:

View attachment 3226566

p.s: the hboot seems to be upgraded due to flashing RUUs! it's now 1.29.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
did you try to flash the ruu manually?(via pg58img.zip)
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
yeah, I've put it into my sdcard and then went to this screen but as I said it doesn't check for pg58img files in this mode. :(

I'm gonna try fastboot flash pg58img.zip in a second.

EDIT:

okay, now I have tried fastboot flash recovery PG58IMG.zip command where pg58img file is the clockwork recovery mod. then I get this error:

sending 'recovery' (4716 KB)...

OKAY [ 1.106s]

writing 'recovery'...

FAILED (remote: not allowed)

finished. total time: 1.425s
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
also I tried unlocking the bootloader via HTCdev's unlock token, when I send the fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin command I get this:

sending 'unlocktoken' (0 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.153s]

writing 'unlocktoken'...

(bootloader) unlock token check successfully

OKAY [ 0.011s]

finished. total time: 0.166s

writing 'unlocktoken' ...

C:\adb>

and then on the phone there has to appear some options to choose unlock the phone, but it doesn't show up anything but that RUU screen, and still says relocked.

And the reason for my last post error was that the bootloader is locked, so I have to figure this out first.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
go to Juopunutbear site and search for the patched hboot 1.27.1111

Flash it via fastboot command

Then try again with flashing the rom or recovery via fastboot

Edit: also the command for PG58Img.zip is wrong

The command is fastboot flash zip pg58img.zip
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
thanks man, after flashing the modified hboot now it's working and it doesn't show up the ruu mode anymore! It worked like a charm!
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
Do you have a rom installed?
[HTC Sensation] m.m.m:
actually I was amazed, when I flashed the modified bootloader and then restarted the phone an ICS rom started! I guess the failed RUUs did this. :D

anyway thanks, now it's fully functional!
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
what:eek:

happy for you my friend:good:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJD:
I have never done an OTA update as when I first got into Android I was flashing ROMs nearly every week and never waited for updates just flashed a new ROM, however when I got my Nexus 6 I decided to just root and stick with stock.

I woke this morning and the 5.1 update was available but when I download it and select install and reboot it boots into recovery (TWRP) and I can't see where the download is - I presume I am having to flash it myself? So I have to reboot and it says I am up-to-date with 5.0.1 and then an hour later the download is available again and I go through the same process.

Can anyone help, tell me where i am going wrong.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] md1008:
I had same issue after relocking bootloader and this worked for me and hopefully it may work for you. Put phone in fastboot mode.(hold power + volume down) then use fastboot command fastboot -w

Same issue here. Let us know how you make out.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philip:
Hate to do a "me too" post, but I've had the exact same experience.

I'll wait to see whether the fastboot -w method works before I do anything else.

I did try to find the (410.4Mb) download on my N6, but I suspect that the failed update must have deleted it, as it's asking me to download it again.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJD:
fastboot -w just wiped userdata so needed to do a fresh install and was still at 5.0.1. So just had to install my backup again to get back to where I was this morning.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philip:
Ouch! Sorry to hear it (though glad that you had a backup) - thanks for saving the rest of us from trying that particular route.

I'm still looking for a way to get to 5.1.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idtheftvictim:
You can't do an OTA update with a NON-STOCK recovery.

You can however, if your bootloader is unlocked, download the factory image, extract it, and flash the system.img, bootloader.img, radio.img, cache.img etc...use fastboot to flash those.

Or you can fastboot flash the stock recovery, and take the OTA again.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philip:
Thanks.

I assume that I can also use Nexus Root Toolkit to "Flash Stock + Unroot" (without wiping the device), then take the OTA update to 5.1, and then use NRT to Root again?

Just doing a full backup at the moment before I start playing!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philip:
UPDATE: The above worked fine.

I started with 5.0.1, rooted, unlocked Bootloader

Then, in Nexus Root Toolkit, I used:

1) Backup (using Create Nandroid Backup w/Custom Recovery option)

2) Flash Stock + Unroot (using No Wipe Mode. I also had to enable Force Flash Mode)

Then, on the phone, accept the OTA 5.1 update, which downloaded and installed first time.

Back to NRT, and:

3) Root and also flash Custom Recovery

I ended up with 5.1, rooted, unlocked Bootloader (and all my apps and data were untouched).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJD:
Since doing the method recommended in the second post the OTA update hasn't been available on my device?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philip:
Have you tried rebooting the phone?

Or going into Settings > About Phone > System Updates > Check for Updates

It's always possible (if unlikely) that Google have stopped the roll-out to fix some of the issues that people have been reporting with SmartLock, etc?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJD:
yes and yes done that too
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Why did you take the scenic route? This is by far the longest method to do that.

Instead of flashing stock with nrt, why not just flash stock normally? That way you could have just flashed 5.1 without having to take any OTA...

And further, if you wanted to keep recovery, why not just flash the system and boot image keeping everything else as it is? Then just flash SuperSU from twrp?

2 commands

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

Boot into recovery and flash root.

Much quicker than the method you used.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philip:
Well, my fist step was a backup, which you conveniently left out - you may be happy to update your phone without backing it up first, but I chose not to take that chance.

Apart from that, it's about the same number of steps - I was happy to take 5.1 OTA (which meant that I was certain that it was the correct version for my phone), and Nexus Root Toolkit is a much nicer piece of software to use than fastboot. I know that some people don't like NRT because they feel that it demystifies the black arts of updating and it threatens their voodoo status, but I find it an excellent piece of software and recommend it to you.

In the meantime, while you had to go and find the appropriate system.img and the appropriate boot.img and download them before fastbooting them, these were steps that I was able to avoid whilst enjoying my "scenic" journey.

So you take the high road and I'll take the low road - but I reckon that it took me no longer to update my phone than it took you to update yours!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It took you loads longer haha.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Philip:
And that bothered you so much that you had to tell the whole world about it? Wow!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
To be honest no. The route you took was so long that I thought you just didn't have a clue about what you were doing so I thought I'd help out and let you know the quicker version... And if anyone reads your post and thinks its the best way to do it, well now they have some contrast.

What bothers me is your attitude however. But I don't care enough to get into an argument with people who would rather waste their time and the people they try to help than listen to constructive criticism.

But yeah, your way is needlessly long so I hope people don't take your lead.
