I do sympathise with you here and i can for sure throw some light on this because like you i have tried many useless devices to be rewarded with no success hardly at all.
You might like to try one of the hearing aid centres that do have a good range of devices because there is always something that will suit you somewhere along the line.
I dont know what kind of deafness you have if it is middle or inner ear probs
but i can tell you that if you have any success with in the ear headphones it will be possible to get one of the very cheap in the ear headsets with a mic to work for you,
the problem of course being if you are totally deaf in one ear it would have to be mono output to the working ear.
People just dont realise that hearing aid users especially those that only hear or use one aid can only get the sound in that hole and one ear does not give you directional sound but everything in one mixed up noise from all around you lol.
Loops are useless by the way as the rf output from the mobile only makes the damm thing buzz like mad as you will very know !.

That is quite a mouthful to digest ha and the biggest problem is everyone is different so my suggestions are not going to mean they will work for you.
the in the ear headphones are the ones that actually go into the outer ear canal as opposed to covering the earhole but if you have tone problems even that will give you problems as you would have to have converted sounds in frequencie to be able to actually hear them.
I know you say your completely deaf in one ear but have you ever tried an in the ear headphones to see if you can actually hear anything even by sounds being transmitted via the bone to the inner ear ?.
I personally can reccomend anything that actually goes into the ear canal as that will get the sound closer to the ear drum.

I cannot advice you personally because you have a personal hearing loss specific to youself so only trial and effort will gain results.
Quite simply, I want to stick my earphones in my ears[1] and plug them into my N900, place it in the middle of the table in front of me and for an app to amplify the sound picked up from the N900's microphone and play it through the headphones.
Even better is if I can use my bluetooth headphones, so I can be further away from the device than is convenient with wired headphones.
Mono only, please - I don't know if the mic on the N900 is stereo or not, but if it is, the sounds should be mixed to mono for obvious reasons (I suppose this could be optional).
Regards,
Max.
[1] in my case, just one since only one of my ears works
