Wireless Headset Pro - Unable to set application settings

Just got my Wireless Headset Pro. Paired it to my Xperia Arc S (running ICS, all bog standard, not rooted). Prompted to Install Smart Wireless Headset Pro plugin for LiveWare Manager, installed OK. Click on Smart Wireless Headset Pro from LiveWare Manage, click 'Applications and Settings', click 'Applications.' I then choose each application in turn and click to install - Calendar Remider, Messaging etc (go to Google Play Store and click the 'Install' button). All Applications installed correctly. Click again on any application (e.g. Messaging - Smart Extras) to change settings and get taken back to the Google Play Store to install the app again! The only option in the Google Play Store is the 'Uninstall' button.
Even through I've installed all the smart extra applications, they are not being recognised as installed by the LiveWare Manager plugin. The status of each Application in the Wireless Headset Pro LiveWare Manager says 'Download and Install'. They are showing as installed to the phone memory under the phone Settings>>Apps.
I have tried restarted the phone and the Wireless Headset Pro several times. Also tried resetting the WHP and re-pairing. No difference.
Anyone else found this?

You could try to clear data for the LiveWare app. If that doesn't help I think that you will to try to repair your phone software via PC Companion.

  • Smart Wireless Headset Pro connection to laptop

    Good afternoon all,
    I'm trying to connect my wireless headset to my business laptop...
    But when connecting, windows (vista) wants to have drivers for the headset.
    Now my question is: Where to get these drivers? Or is this even possible what I want?
    Thanks!

    There are no special drivers for Smart Wireless Headset pro, it uses standard Bluetooth drivers. Check that your Bluetooth stack is using the latest firmware version.

  • Sony MW1 Wireless Headset Pro is NOT working -- YOUTUBE

    I have big problem with the MW1. I can't use a 32GB class 10 micro sd card. If more than 4GB, the device is lost.
    Even if i use the 2GB micro sd, i can't read all song, if i try to play via artist or album, it shows maximum 2 songs and it does RESET Itself from time to time.
    I can't stand this product anymore. I ve bought it 110 euros in France and 35 euros for the micro sd 32GB.
    The MW1 is useless. It seems we all have the problem.
    I confirm my firmware is the last 0.1.B.0.6
    I do not use the radio...
    It's now few days i'm reading this thread... Sony doesn't care, that's why i suggest we give SONY a deadline to allow us to use the Wireless Headset Pro as it should, otherwise i'll post Videos on youtube showing how this great product is working.
    Reset, difference between your ad and the reality. Impossible to use Micro SD 32GB,, non stop reset, , player.album problem..
    If like me, you feel really disappointed, you're welcome to do the same thing.
    Sony, you have now 2 choices : Give us a full refund or make it work as advertised !!!

    See my latest reply here.
    http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/268808#268808
    I also suggest that we keep the discussion in that thread.

  • Problems with Smart Wireless Headset Pro after upgrading my Xperia Sola to ICS

    Just want to let the community, and Sony, know that since I "upgraded" my Xperia Sola to ICS, the Text to Speech on my Smart Wireless Headset Pro is not functioning. It used to work just fine when I had Gingerbread on my phone, but when I upgraded to ICS, the Text to Speech voice is not output on the headset, but on the phone, on the call speaker... Hope this bug gets fixed soon.
    Maybe someone already knows of a solution?
    Thanks in advance.

    There is a new update available for the Smart Wireless headset pro, MW1 (0.1.C.0.3).
    Which software version are you running your MW1 on?
    If you don't have the latest I suggest that you use SUS to update your software.

  • Unable to open Application Settings from C6

    I am using my Nokia C6 since October 2010 and all of a sudden for over a month now, I am not able to open my application settings manager. Also, the download option in Nokia store from my phone is also grayed out.
    Any idea why am I facing this issue.
    My free phone memory is 141 MB and free external memory is 8 GB.
    Also to add that I alwyas keep updating my phone software and applications whenever a higher version is found.
    My current Software version is:41.0.010
    Latest Update:5-1-2012

    Hi Ziyaul Islam,
    Thanks for your post and welcome to the Nokia forum.
    In order to fix this issue, I would advise you to perform a hard reset. First of all, back up your data using Nokia Suite (Tools > Back up). Once your data is fully backed up,  type *#7370# on the keypad.  Default lock code is 12345.
    The hard reset will dellete all your personal information, that's why a back up is very important.
    Alternatively, you may also check for updates on Nokia Suite (by going to Tools > Updates).
    If the problem persists, I would suggest you to contact your local Nokia care.
    Hope this helps and feel free to post any other questions you may have.
    Regards,
    Pfrancoise

  • Macbook Pro unable to reinstall factory settings

    My macbook pro started running slow so I decided to restart it.  When restarted it I could get it to go past the apple screen and the load bar.  I didnt have my files backed up so I decided that I would just try to restore it back to the factory settings.  Everytime that I try to do this I am getting an error message.  I have verified the drives and apparently theres an issue with my hard drives.  Please advise as to how I can reset the hard drive back to the factory settings and avoid the error messages that I have been getting.  My mac book has always performed well.  The only thing that I can think of that may be causing this issue is the fact that I installed a game from the app store called Capitalism 2.  Please advise.

    We cannot help you without knowing what the error message was and what version of OS X is installed. If it said the drive cannot be repaired or that you must backup all your files and reinstall, then here's what you would usually do:
    Install or Reinstall Mavericks or Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
    If you are using Snow Leopard then do this instead:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Wireless logitech keyboard - unable to set keyboard map in X.

    Hi,
    i have a wireless usb keyboard - logitech k360. When I restart X i always have to manually set keyboard layout using "setxkbmap pl" which is little annoying.
    My laptop keyboard has polish layout set correctly. I tried to modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/keyboard.conf, but cannot find the right options. Here's how it looks now:
    Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Keyboard Defaults"
    MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
    Option "XkbModel" "logii350"
    Option "XkbLayout" "pl"
    Option "XkbOptions" "terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"
    EndSection
    I've tried to remove option XkbModel, tried to set it to pc105 and now it is set to logii350 (I've searched through the /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/ to find my exact keyboard model but it isn't there).
    Funny thing is, that when I type some polish character at my laptop keyboard, suddenly wireless keyboard gets good layout.
    Any thoughts?

    Is this one with the Logitech Unifying Device receiver?
    There are a few threads on this forum about it defaulting to the default QWERTY layout (hell, I have an AZERTY layout - not just as a locale, the key prints are AZERTY). It seems to be some udev bug.

  • Any solutions for MW1 (not so)Smart Wireless Headset Pro errors?

    These are the problems I have experienced so far and have not had any feedback from Sony as to how to fix them. Anyone got any suggestions apart from demanding a refund?
    *This device doesn't work at all as an MP3 player as it is advertised to do. Adding music directly through USB and copying to the SD card does not work, even though the manual says this is possible. I tried adding albums to it using Sony's (almost useless) Media Go program and it shows all the songs and albums as being on the SD card (filling up about half of a 16GB SD card) but it takes a VERY LONG TIME to load into the music select menu.
    *Once the device does finally get to the music select screen, you can only play the first song of any artist or album and then it stops dead. The skip next button just pauses that one song when you try pressing it. The only way to see the other songs is to scroll through the entire list of unsorted songs, which is of course a ridiculous way to play or categorise music, and then once it reaches the first song listed and you try to scroll backwards, the device resets itself!
    *You are unable to create any playlists for the device, so it's a bit pointless even listing it in the menu.
    *In addition, the Android Bluetooth (BT) call features hardly ever work. Even if it's paired with my Samsung Galaxy Note phone through BT and a call comes in, I can hear the call ringing and despite pressing the black button as the instructions say, nothing happens at all and I need to take the call on the phone instead. Using it with Viber to try to call, it cuts in and out in the middle of the call, switching between the phone's speaker and no sound at all. I had the MW600 before this product and at least that was able to do basic music playback with correct artist/song information (which this device does not do at all) and the bluetooth functions of the MW600 worked (which they don't on this piece of junk).
    *If that wasn't enough, the text to speech function is sporadic in its operation at best, mostly non-functioning the majority of the time, for both gmail and text messages, even after installing the required apps from the Play market.
    *The FM radio function is really a joke. You can't store any preset stations and then each time you start it up it always begins from 00.0mhz every time, not even remembering which frequency you used last time.
    *How can this be called a "premium" device when it doesn't even support basic .mp3 playback, let alone common lossless filetypes like .flac?
    *When I first turned the product on and paired it with my phone it said it was updating. Then when I looked up the Sony support website it shows a .bin update file with instructions to update. Is this the same update? I tried installing it exactly as the instructions said and there was absolutely no response from the device as to whether it updated or not. It is ridiculous to assume that posting an update file without a date or version number on a website will be of any use to users because how can we possibly determine which file is required? Regardless, no updates or firmware revisions have fixed any of the issues I have mentioned so far in this review.
    I paid a lot of money for this device (especially compared to cheaper but similar products from other brands) because of the advertised premium features it should have come with and because I thought Sony was a reputable brand and I expect it at least to do the basic functions that it is claimed to. I assumed that perhaps it was just me that had a faulty device but after reading reviews on this and other sites as well as this I have found that it is the device itself which is seriously flawed.
    For a brand that supposedly prides itself on high quality products, this is totally unacceptable from Sony.

    I saw all your problems listed and quickly read it through looking for "I've tried to update". I clearly read it to fast. Sorry about that, my bad.
    As for the "assumed answered" check the 2nd announcement on the main page on this forum for a detailed explanation to this.
    The software version name/number isn't listed anywhere on the website but you can check this in the device itself. Back button > Settings > System info. The latest one is called 0.1.B.0.6.
    Since you've already done the update and still are having problems I suggest you download Update Service. http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/
    With this program you can redo the installation which hopefully solves your issues. If not, I'd suggest you take it back to the store.

  • CS5 Pro unable to set stage color

    I am new at the flash game, and currently trying to set the stage with a color from the classic window and properties. However when I select a stage color it remains white, and will not change.  I have tried everything I know how to do like uninstalling and re-installing, going through the endless help files and forums.
    Flash Player is 10.1.102.64
    Flash Pro CS5 is up to date.
    Thanks

  • In the program screen unable to set playback settings

    I want to record to my DV recorder but I can't do the neccessary settings | have to do in the Program screen menu (top right).
    Does anyone knows the solution?

    I'm still not clear on what you mean. Where is there "only video output and no audio"? In your timeline? In encoded output? On tape after going File>Export>Tape?
    As for the Sequence Settings being grayed out, are you referring to the New Sequence dialog, or the Sequence Settings dialog for an existing sequence? If it's the latter, then that's simply because Premiere CS6 does not allow sequence settings to be edited. That capability was added in CC7.1.

  • Feature Request: MW1 Wireless Headset Pro - Make Button configuarable

    Hi Sony Support,
    I'm using the MW1 in combination with my Xperia V and I'm pretty happy with it besides one thing which is actually really annoying. The round button next to the display diconnects the current call on short press or puts it on hold on a long button press.
    I would rather like to use that button for mute/unmute as I'm stuck in a lot of conference calls and it would save me a lot of trouble when I could mute or unmute myself from the headset. Without this option I'm force to take out my my phone and do it there which is pretty inconvinient especially if you use the phone "on the go" running over an airport or to a train.
    With my cabled headset the button on the mike just toggles mute/unmute, so switching between both when the battery is out I'm disconnecting a lot by accident :smileywink:
    I looked for some mail to send a feature request but didn't find any so I'll try my luck here.
    I would love to see an option to reconfigure the buttons behavior, like a software on the phone where I could select one of the following options for
    - short press: Disconnect, Re-dial last inbound/outbound number, toggle Mute/Unmute
    - double short press: Disconnect, Re-dial last inbound/outbound number, toggle Mute/Unmute
    - long press: Disconnect, Re-dial last inbound/outbound number, toggle Mute/Unmute
    Thanks,
    fassy

    Hi, can I also ask for old very nice feature to be returned to the current version of the software (0.1.E and above). Back in version 0.1.D.. and below you do not need to select media source (SD Card selection) when you need to listen or view media from the phone. I am using Xperia Arc S. Before when you press play in the phone it automatically switches the MW1 and you can hear the audio from the phone without manual intervention. When there is music currently playing from MW1's sd card, it automatically pause the playback then you can hear the audio from the phone then when you are through with the media on the phone, MW1 automatically resume playing from the SD Card. The feature is very convinient it do not need for me to install SMS notification apps. You can even hear the keyboard clicks if its not configured to be silent.
    Many of us are looking for this feature when it is taken out during the introduction of the update.

  • Smart Wireless Headset Pro 0.1.C.0.3 malfunctioning

    The headset upgraded correctly to 0.1.C.0.3 last month. It worked fine.
    yesterday, while idle, I noticed the headset showing the animation on its screen that it was downloading new firmware (no prompts on phone or headset).
    It did not turn on for a few hours after that. Eventually when it powered back on, I noticed the following:
    - FM tuner seeks in increments of 0.1MHz, instead of auto tuning. Holding down the seek button no longer does anything. Only single press advances the frequency.
    - The display never turns off (consequently the battery life is very poor now)
    - Upon power on, the unit shows the rotating arrow animation and then offers "Factory Reset Yes/No"
    If I say Yes, it reboots but the same thing happens.
    - If I select Factory Reset from the System menu, the same thing happens
    - The reset procedure (holding down power for 5-15 seconds) does not improve anything
    - The unit is still showing 0.1.C.0.3 as the firmware version and the handset says I'm already on the latest version.
    Is there anyway I can reflash 0.1.C.0.3?
    Is there anyway I can perform a deeper reset?
    The headset is unusable now because of the 2 hour battery life with the screen constantly on.
    Thanks for any help.

    You should be able to reinstall the headset firmware using SUS.

  • Smart Wireless Headset Pro MW1 - Software 0.1.E.1.5 Playbackproblem

    The softwareversion 0.1.D.0.6 is the last where audio from my S3 is functional.
    0.1.E.1.5 is the same like 0.1.E.1.4, sound stop from milliseconds up to seconds.
    Luckywise it was possible to downgrade with the Sony Updateservice to 0.1.D.0.6 and not like it written somewhere in the forum that it is not possible.
    I hope Sony provide for all user a file to download and downgrade to the old software up to the moment they have a working update out.
    After downgrade playback is ok, really really rare a short break which is not really disturb.
    With the MW600 no problems.
    I have to say that I'm totally unlucky with this product because it is not cheap.
    The first doesn't work and the second is, with the latest software, unusable.
    Someone out with a S3 which work?
    Any suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    We are working on this problem and it will be fixed in the next update.
