Unhappy Diamond Bluetooth Audio Quality

Ever since switching to the Diamond I have discovered that the Bluetooth audio quality is horrible.

I have tried 3 headsets and all have the same issue with static/garble. It is so bad that if I take the phone and move it from left to right the audio gets so garbled that you cannot hear the other person. The headsets that I have used are Jabra BT250v, Jabra BT200, and Plantronics Explorer 220.

With my Touch I was able to go at least 15 feet before I would get such distortion.

An interesting discovery, when using a Anycom stereo headset the sound quality is much better and the garbled/distortion is minimal. The only thing that I can come up with about this that the stereo headset is using A2DP while the non-stereo ones do not.

I want to find out if I am alone with this issue and my phone has a defective bluetooth radio or if this is a widespread issue.

I would appreciate if people would chime in and let me know how their experience with Bluetooth is.

Much appreciated,
Rob.

Re: Diamond B L U E T O O T H Audio Quality

This App has some Bluetooth tweaks that may help you: (I use the motorola s9 and love it!)

This program allows you to customize many different options on the phone, with most showing which setting is Default, and which is Advised.

Many of these changes can improve overall performance, as well as battery life.

I would advise ANYONE with this phone to use this program, and take the time to read and set each option.

The program can be found HERE
