I want to buy a cheap headset for my XDA - is there a specific one I should buy or can I get a generic one somewhere?
BT-headset
The best one is called Bluespoon AX!
Check it out at www.nextlink.to
It beats the most BT-headsets on:
*Size
*Weight
*Price
*Stand-by time
*Sound quality

Hi everyone,
Is there an in-ear earbud replacement for the wired stereo headset that come as a standard accessory with the Diamond?
I do not have small ears by any means, but the standard headset has always been uncomfortable and I much prefer the in-ear variety.
Thanks!
bump ?
hi ive seen some for sale on ebay different to the standard Diamond jobbies ive got to say after moving from sony ericsson plug in headset the htc is very poor
i hate the button that doesnt actually disconnect the call just place it on hold
scan the bay there are headsets available
good luck

Another thing would be to get an audio extension cable for Diamond and use any of 2.5 or 3.5mm headsets...that Sennheiser MM50 for iPhone is good for sure and it should work with that setup.
I'm looking for a music headphones, the one i have from the htc is good, but i want one with for music.
So im wondering if i should buy the HTC Touch Diamond Stereo Headset HS S200 (ExtUSB) found here or should i get HTC Touch Diamond Wired Remote Control RC E100 or HS U110 and just get a normal headphones to use with the 3.5mm adapater such as the as norm 3.5mm headset like the SENNHEISER MM50 but with the 3.5mm plugin.
I have used RC E100 with myold Cruise and it is a good choice. The fact that you could use own headphones made the quality perfect and as a bonus you have full playback and call control. I am not sure if it is still compatible with Diamond though. Also I have broken 2 of those in short time, but I was using them quite rough.
Can anyone recommend which bluetooth headset is good? I want something that is able to listen to music and receive call. I just hate those cable when listening to music. Thank you in advance.
i have a Jabra BT530 (one of the few that support A2DP = music streaming) only con is that you cant skip track using the headset volume button. otherwise its a good one !

the problem is with the music player your using. use a different one and give it a whirl.... should work a peach. i use tunewiki or simply music (both free apps).
Just for test I bought this from ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.nl/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...163711&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_4192wt_911
It's a pretty cheap one from Hong Kong and it works perfectly (both calls and audio)! So I can imagine some other cheap BT headsets (with A2DP profile) will work as well.
Why that one you might ask. Well, in combination with € 3,- helmet speakers I have a complete working BT audio setup nicely tucked away in my helmet. For navigation etc on the motorcycle! All together for like € 10,-. A bit different than the € 200-300 they ask for BT sets built into a helmet!
There are BT headsets from $ 4,40 (around € 3,50), but I'm not sure they support audio over bluetooth. So you might want to look out for that!
But my estimation is that it can be done for around 10 euro's! Search on ebay for 'a2dp -dongle' and you might get some interesting hits!
i got the jabra street BT3030 today, bought from amazon.de
i am impressed, because it looks stylish, it worked from the beginning without any adjustments (using latest nightly of CyanogenMod, just start you bt-headset, open BT settings in your phone, add JABRABT3030 pin 0000), the headphones are really good (of course no comparison to expensive sennheiser) and the microphone is very good (i am phoning during this post ). And i like the fact, that you can buy some other headphones with 3,5mm pin and use it.

Depending on the use of the bluetooth headset, another suggestion could be something from Jaybirdgear.com, like the Sportsband 2. It's a lot more pricy than the others, but if you don't like the in-ear style, and even wants to listen to music while in the shower, yes I can confirm that they are able to do this without getting broken, these might do the job for you
But ofc, if running, sweating and getting wet while listening to music ain't your thing - don't buy em, as they are rather pricy.
I use a pair of Sennheiser MM400 headphones. Absolutely brilliant sound quality, plus it has a mic and next/back/play/pause buttons. I can confirm that the controls work with the Desire, cause it has AVRCP.

Does anyone know of a headphone adapter with audio controls and and a mic? I'm think of something similar to the mini-USB to 3.5mm adapter than came with the G1, but obviously with a 3.5mm connector for the phone.
I like the controls on the bundled headphones but the audio quality and noise isolation is terrible. I want to be able to use my Sennheisers but still pause and skip songs. I'm sure I could splice the bundled control module into my headphones but I'd rather not hack up an expensive set.
Alternately, does anyone know of a software solution to map one of the buttons to perform pause/skip functions? Having to unlock the phone to pause and skip or use a fugly lock screen replacement is not ideal.
i would like to know this as well
I've got two sets that I really like. Skull Candy FMJ are my favorite. Great sound isolation. Kinda spendy, but well worth it. A lower cost and nearly as good option is a Best Buy brand vmoda headset. Sound isolation with inline mic witha button which is basically a start/pause button for the audio. It works great for what I use it for.
Hmm. I'd prefer just a simple adapter so I can keep using my Sennheiser CX 300-II's (especially since I just replaced them this summer after leaving my old set on an airplane). Do you have the v-modas? I don't want them, but I want to make sure that iPod controls also work on the G2. If so I may check out the Etymotic mc3 or hf3.
Look at radio shack for what you are looking for. I'm pretty sure I saw something to what you are looking for. Here it is...

I have the v-moda vibe duo, the jaybird freedom, and zagg smartbuds. All three work great. Zagg has the coolest feature of any headphones I've had with the way they designed them and are my go to. V-moda has the best bass of the three and jaybirds are perfect for working out it. All three mic and controls work.

Ouch! $40 for a simple mic and control button adapter? I may just start cutting and splicing cheap headsets to see if that works.

i have sony ericsson mw-600 stereo bluetooth adapter/headset if you want a more wireless option. it has OLED display and controls on the mic clip, and stereo adapter to plug in your own headphones/ear buds if you dont like the stock ones.
My stock HTC headset stopped working, and now i'm looking for a replacement. I like the sennheiser mm 30i, but i'm not sure the remote works correctly, can anyone confirm this? Could you also suggest something else with similar characteristics?
All HTC headphones maybe same like this, now I'm using I Phone4 headphone its working good and with small remote. Try it if u wnat...

I just bought a set of Dre Beats that comes with the new HTC Sensations off eBay, many people who have bought the phone and don't want to listen to their music on it are selling the earphones for upto £50.
I use a set of Beyer Dynamic MMX100 In-ear phones/headset- excellent set of headphones, I find Sennheisers to be slightly too transparent/tinny and all Beyers seem to be slightly warmer- good enough for the majority of the music industry/music studios etc then good enough for me
They are usually £120 RRP, but if you look on Amazon.co.uk, one seller has them in stock and selling them for £79.99 with free delivery (Amazon currently selling them for £102.11).
I use Dr Dre Beats Tour headphones, they're very good sound quality and the mic works, a little on the expensive side though.

I thin you must try Smartphone Experts Stereo Headsets (3.5mm).
It has good sound quality.
It combines integrated headset technology with a stereo sound isolating design to deliver rich, detailed sound while blocking outside noises.

I have a pair of Skullcandy Full Metal Jacket with mic and they work great. They are not expensive and they remote works with call and music. Not a bad choise if you want something cheaper
Stay away from Iphone compatible gear with analog volume control, i.e. trim pot, they be mono on HTC Desire. My own experience...
considering the Dr. Dre Beats!
Dr.Dree beats headphones, i tried Monster Beat headphones and they are fantastic I will try my best to get them here it is 50 euros, because a lot of people didn't wanted headphones
Sony Ericsson MW600 - my choice. comfortable and good quality.
Suggest you check out the HTC RC-E190 flat cabled in-ear headset. It is HTC branded from Expansys and has remote controls for calls and music which work well with Desire. It is available on Amazon for £10.28 with free shipping too. Decent quality too.
Ultimate Ears 400vi are also decent In-Ear headphones and they work well with the desire.
Sony Ericsson MW600 +1
Can't believe no one mentioned Jays?
Their value is amazing. Not the best In-Ear headphones at all, but considering their price they're amazing. Most audiophile forums I've checked find them to be better than Beats by Dre's in-ear series. I'm not a big fan of Beats (you don't get alot for your money, unlike Grado).
Check out a-JAYS One+ (the plus makes the difference). They come with a mic + remote (control button) and an app so you can decide what the button does. Standard settings are:
1 click: Music; pause/play - Call; answer/hang up
2 clicks: Music; next track - Call; reject call
1 click+hold, 2 clicks+hold and so on.
Got 'em myself. Works like a charm. And the sound is amazing.
Is there any remote control for Desire, which allows me to plug in my own headphones? I want something like the Nokia music controller. I don't need any mic, only volume controls (of the phone, not only of headphones!) suffy. Thanks
