    How come users CAN listen music then with other headsets?
    Is there a specific feature I should be looking for while buying a new new one?

    Errr... thats not how bluetooth works. I dont think you can listen to music through your headset unless its a stereo bluetooth headset.

My Jabra Halo works to play iPhone's iPod music as well as phone calls. So does Jabra Arrow, I'm told. The bluetooth must have A2DP.

I have a Bluetooth headset VMX 100. I paired it with my iPhone, I can make phones, but I cannot listen to the music from my iPhone, or the VMX100 designed to not to listen any music. Thanks

In order to have music streamed to a bluetooth headset, it must bear A2DP (Avanced Audio Distribution Profile). You see, all stereo bluetooth headsets available on the market do support that profile. Nevertheless, the VMX100 is a monaural headset, thus bearing both HFP (Hands Free Profile) and HSP (HeadSet Profile) only, which are suitable for phone calls only.
Well, depeniding on your phone platform, you might find applications around which route all audio to a monaural bluetooth headset. However, you would, most probably, find the sound quality to be pretty poor.
Please, let me know if I can help you any further.

I have a new 3gs phone and have two questions. Does the bluetooth detect other devices to enable file transfer? My phone doesnt detect anything and the salesman said its for blue tooth headset only is this...

Bluetooth

iphone doesnt detect other devices iPhone has no A2DP Bluetooth profile, and it has been a real surprise. It only offers HSP/HFP Bluetooth profile (Headset Profile/Handsfree Profile) for mono headsets, which is not enough – you can use it only for phone conversations. A2DP's first distinguisher is Stereo of high quality for music listening. White on BlackWhite on Black is used to invert the colors on the iPhone display, which may make it easier to read the screen. The screen looks like a photographic negative when White on Black is turned on.

Iphone bluetooth problems

Unfortunately, the iPhone doesn't (yet) have such capability built-in. But engaging the iPod function to listen to music/video audio while a call is taking place will allow you to hear said audio. Obviously this is not an ideal solution. If your phone is jailbroken, there is a tweak to enable music to be played through the bluetooth headphones but it is low quality.
