I bought the LG tone Bluetooth headset today, and so far it's cutting out while using pandora, when bluetooth is turned on i'm unable to make voice calls from my contacts.

I unfroze the app 3.0(whatever) program in TB and still doing the same thing. Yes i did reboot my phone.
 
I unfroze everything and it worked just fine. Went back through the list again and froze apps again and the problem started again. Here is what i've got frozen

You can go through the tedious process of unfreezing them one by one and see which one fixes the issue. I would start with the music lilac as people in the past have reported issues with freezing it.
 
music lilac seems to fix it, but now i've got the issue of losing the bluetooth if i answer a call while listening to pandora. I'm going to have to play with it and see what happens.

Thanks Hollywood.
 
I'm having issues as well. I can get 33 of range except when my phone is in Pocket. Any ideas. As for your issue, may seem obvious but have you checked compatibility with your phone

seems to be working now, unfroze music lilac, rebooted a couple of times and played with it, calling myself from my home phone.

Is that supposed to say 33 feet of range?

I've never gotten more than 8 feet from any blue tooth device, since Windows phone 4.5 when I could get about 18-20 feet

(This being the reason why I removed all the Bluetooth related apps from my Rom before I installed it, Bluetooth sucks and is worthless. If i even just set my phone on the left side of my desk while using a Bluetooth headset in my right ear, i have so much static that people cannot understand me. I do use it on my work phone for conference calls when i am at home watching my 7 month old daughter)
 
Yes that's supposed ot say 33' or feet of range. Sorry my typing english is really poor sometimes. I am running a Casio Commando and I can get about 30' of range on this unit with music and some calls. When My phone is in my pocket it won't get a good signal the 2.5' from my pocet to my head. Have you had any issues like this with any other bluetooth, This is my first bluetooth anything
 
My Bluetooth devices don't like pockets for the microphone, but usually there is minimal issues of I am listening to music. Also, putting the phone on one side of my body (left) with the Bluetooth on the other side (right) causes static that can get really bad. The occasional static when listening to audio is give for me, but the static over the microphone that other people hear during calls makes people tell me to stop using my headsets. I've tried buying a $150 Bluetooth headset and I've tried a $10 headset, and 4 or 5 in between.

Maybe if I get something that uses Bluetooth 3.0 it will work better, but I've never seen anything supporting over 2.1

I think the spectrum supports Bluetooth 3.0
 
The hand full of phone calls i've made since i got the LG tone my clients that have talked to me before hand commented on how much better the call sounded. Partly because i stopped putting my finger over the mic(where i used to put my finger on my Ally) I like way it rests around my neck, and the left side vibrates so i can now tell i've got a call coming in without having to keep the radio in my car turned down. The sound quality for listening to music is pretty good, a little tinny depending on the song, it's got a bass boost in it, but that doesn't always help.

I haven't tested distance yet though.
 
Guys,

I have the LG tone, there seems to some issue, the music works fine, it is playing but none of the buttons are working? :(

tried with my Transformer Tab, Samsung focus, but to no avail. the buttons just dont work,

any idea how can this be repaired?
