I've just bought my Xda2 recently. And I want to buy a bluetooth headset to go with it. Any specific model or brand you would recommend, or to avoid? :lol:
Thanks!!

I use a Bluetrek G2. That's great! It's fully compatible with XDA 2. Up to 6 hours in conversation and up to 350 hours in stand-by. Everything in only 12 grams...

i got a motorola hs810 and its working just fine
I got myself a O2 bluetooth set for only $59,- and I am soooooo happy with this one. Previously I used a Sony Ericson HBH 35.
Thanks ppl for the information. I will go check it out!!
CHEERS :lol: :lol:
Jabras are good. They are the best fitting earpiece I have tried.
The rest make you look like Madonna on Stage doing vogue!
I prefer the Sony-Ericsson HBH headsets myself. I have the HBH-30 and it has worked flawlessly both with my SE T68i and my i-mate.
Hi folks,
apparently the headset that came with my XDA II device and which I use for listening to my music is in trouble. The left earphone is not working correctly. Most of the time it's completly mute but sometimes I get it to work by playing around and bending the cable right above or beneath the mike (the little thing you use to adjust volume, take and end calls). So I figure it's a loose connection/broken cable. To check on this I'd like to open the microphone part but I don't know how. It looks rather fragile and I don't wanna make things worse.
So what I need is a hint how to safely open this device. And if all fails maybe an address where to get a new headset. There are only a few original headsets on ebay and o2 Germany doesn't sell these headsets.
Thanxs for your replies.

the headsets on ebay work perfectly well and are a real bargain. bought 5 pcs for 1€ each recently, hope those will last as long as my xda (waiting for it to return from rma).

Searched for XDA 2 headset on ebay UK. Got nothing but the official ones selling at 8 pounds each which is still a major rip off.
Anyone here know of any places to get the official headset (or even an unofficial one that has the mic/control buttons on it?) for a cheap price?
How can they not include a set of headphones?
I have my own for music pair, they have a mic but they're in-ear so they make me talk louder than I should. I was hoping to have another pair for phone usage. :/
Anyone know of a cheap pair I could get?
I got a set, heavily discounted, of the ink'd Skullcandy (ugh) when I picked up the phone this morning. Better than nothing, and dirt cheap.
Can anyone recommend some headphones with a mic?

$45, and you can use your own earbuds.
I suggest everyone checkout head-fi.org and do a search.

I figure I'll drop some dime on the LG HBS-700 headphones. I have a friend who uses those with his Evo 4g, and they are AWESOME.

So will any iPhone compatible headset / mic combo be fully functional with the g2x?
I tried a blackberry headset and the mic did not work, while the button did control music and voice dialer.

I'm guessing no headphones and sdcard is how they got the price of the phone down to $499 off contract

Nice headphones and sounds good also.

a pair of cheap headphones cost at max like what, $2-$4?
I can buy an HDMI cable myself for $5. LG can probably obtain them in bulk for $2 each.
SD cards are a little more expensive, so I can understand that because they included some internal storage. But still, a 4GB card is pretty cheap. But I don't care, I have a collection of microSDs from a 512mb to a couple 8GBs. I have my 16GB inside right now.

dont forget no hdmi / mini hdmi to connect it to the phone that they are so adamant about advertising for. (not as easy to find as a normal hdmi/hdmi cable)
Got these from newegg for my Samsung Vibrant after the headphones Samsung gave me broke. So far they've been great for the price and I love the quality of the wire. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826735014&Tpk=m9p
I bought Jlab j3m earbuds from amazon and just tested them out. Sound quality is great, and the mic also works well with the g2x. 1 click of the button will pause/play the music or answer/hang up call. A long press brings up the voice dialer but it doesn't work- it gets stuck on 'starting up'.
Has anybody experienced a similar issue of a stuck voice dialer?
Maybe this can be fixed with a different rom?
I'm using a pair of nuforce ne8 that I bought from Amazon for 50. These headphones sound great and has lasted 2 years and counting. Hope this helps

I agree. I'd rather not have to be forced to pay for cheap headphones or a dinky 2-4GB card anyway since most people like me would upgrade to something bigger and better.
The dual cores make this piece of hardware pretty pricey ..
anybody experiencing similar issue?

Go to monoprice.com and search for "micro hdmi". They have many lengths and prices are great.
I'm still unsure which headphones (with integrated mic, non-BT) to get. :/

OH PLEASE ! stop making excuses for these cheap mo fo's... no excuse for not having a sd card and or head phones! it probably costs lg 10$ to make this phone.
its the way of the future m'boy! everything is made in china with the cheapest of the cheap, and amenities are a thing of the past.
BUT...I am loving my g2x so far, even though the whole no sd card or earphones, is bs. thats like wsamsung not including a flash on the GS...whats up with that?
but so far most of the other complaints have not appeared on my g2x runs sweet. I did end up sticking a C4 16gb card inside, and that did seem to help a lot!
rooted FTW!

Can you successfully use voice dialer with it? Has anybody used voice dialer with wired headphones?
How many people actually use the cheap headphones iPods and cell phones come with? Go to the 99 cents store and those are the quality that comes with most cell phones.
You should buy some decent headphones that will last you through several cell phones. The Klipsch IMAGE S4 is very good. Pricey but you will hear sounds and bass you can't hear with cheap ones. I had Shures and other ones but the Klipsch is my favorite ones.
I'm looking for a good pair of earbuds for around $25-30. It'd be nice if it had working controls, but im mainly looking for a pair that will stay in my ear. I really liked my iBeats and apple 5th gen earbuds. If anyone could find me an amazon or ebay link to the genuine galaxy s3 earbuds, that would be greatly appreciated too

I completely disagree with the recommendation. Unless you want the controller, you are far better off with something like Vsonic GR02 for example. It's slightly above your budget but you also get a far superior sound.

I don't know about $25-30 but a while back I purchased the Monoprice 108320 Enhanced Bass Hi-Fi Noise Isolating Earphones and even though they don't have any controls, I believe them to be the best for under $15. The only problem is the that it's best to buy new tips and they tend to coil other than that I love and the sound quality is pretty fantastic.
These are amazing

I have Koss porta pro headphones that I bought on eBay years ago probably were closer to $50 but the ksc75 is cheaper and almost the same. For out and about when I don't want to wear ugly looking headphones I have some vmoda in ear I got on eBay a couple years ago for somewhere between $30 and $50 I think. They aren't too bad and they hold up well.

Amazon has a good deal for prime members on these BT headphones. I've never heard of them, but they got good reviews, and I figured for $18, what the heck.

Another day another deal on Amazon. At this rate I'll have headphones going into and coming out my ears.
