updates on BT issues on 4.04 stock???

[samkatz]

are other people still having bad BT earpiece connections?? I have tried multiple earpieces as well as my BT enabled home phone (DECT 6.0) system. All give me garbled conversations. Can't live w/it any more as I need to use BT headsets . it works clearly w/a2dp

Is there any solution recommended other than returning the phone? If I exchange phone will I still have this issue?(eg, is this a general problem w/this ICS release?)

I'm having the same issues. There are posts here that address the issue along with instructions on how to fix it.

I searched and didn't find any how to fix it posts. Thanks for the non-answer.

It's the radios. They are independent of the rom. I had to drop back to FA02. You have to be rooted to do this though.

I use bluetooth all the time and this resolved it for me totally.

You do not need to root... just an unlocked bootloader:

Here's my post on how to do it:
