Has anyone with 3.0 have music streaming over bluetooth? I have paired my phone with my headset but I can't seem to get it to stream music only the phone. I thought that 3.0 was supposed to support music over bluetooth? If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Thanks!
 
Pretty sure....

I am pretty sure your headset or headphone or whatever have to specifically support it. You can't use it with just any headset....
 
It shows on the site that it works on the iPhone....I think. But as long as it supports A2DP it doesnt ned to specifically work with 3.0....As far as I know

Edit: Sorry it has music control too....ok. I would think they would need to make an app to support control like that...and apps made by developers cant run in the background so we might be sol

I'm contacting them. I want to make sure that I can full iPod controls as well as phone. When I get an answer I'll post it here.

Your right. I looked up my headset and it does not support it.

Thanks!

Has anyone got this working yet? Just curious to see how it sounds.

I'm listening to my playlists wirelessly over my Jaybird headphones right now. Now I'm not an audiophile, but it sounds pretty good to me.

I'm checking the site now. It says its compatible. Can you receive calls with it? Volume controls for both phone and iPod?

Yes, Yes, and Yes. My only issue is that people sometimes have an issue hearing me anywhere there is background noise.
 
Can you control the volume from the iPhone when using the Sony Ericsson Bluetooth Wireless Stereo Headphones HBH-IS800?

You sure? I contacted the company and they said that in order to have iPod functionality I need to buy the adaptor for it. Despite the fact that iPhone 3.0 OS has the support built in.

So you saying the headset works for phone calls, and has iPod controls that works?
 
it works great with my motorolla s9-hds i wish that it would work with my ipod touch (1st gen) o well i guess i will just use my ipod adapter
 
it works on my Kenwood DNX9140 headunit perfectly. Cant control song selection, but the audio is near perfect.

My Cerulleans button does pause song with one click but does NOT advance with dble click. The volume does not control the ipod but it does control the headphones. Incoming/Outgoing calls do fade out the music and then it returns once finished. Sound is as good as can be expected for a bluetooth headset/headphone.

Downside is when driving you have one piece hanging around your neck and it has tendancy to want to pull the other side out of your ear. Other that no problems.
