Does your headset work OK for making and receiving calls?

This may be because this headset is not compatible with the Vivaz for audio streaming: check to see whether your phone has Audio streaming listed in the BT Services available for this headset.

Which headset is it and is it a stereo bluetooth headset, or just an ordinary BT headset? Which was your old phone?

Not applicable

i have 2 bluetooth normal headsets: Motorola H375 and Motorola H555

my old phones were LG Xenon and Sony Ericsson T715A

These headsets are mono headsets and although they work OK for calls on the Vivaz, they are most probably not compatible with the Vivaz for audio streaming, in order to listen to music/video.You would need a compatible Bluetooth stereo headset for this.

Does the Vivaz give you information on the types of BT Services available with these headsets?

Not applicable

no it doesnt

An example of the type of BT stereo headset that allows Audio streaming and is compatible with the Vivaz is the HBH-DS205, details of which you will find on the SE website and if you want to buy it, I would suggest Amazon.co.uk
