Hi all!
I'm wondering if anyone have tried Apples earphones on the Desire? I must say that I don't really like HTC's earphones. But I've always loved my iPod's earphones
Here's a link for which earphones I mean; http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB770G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA1MA&mco=MTM3NTI1NDE.
Does the earphones in it selves work? What about the mic and the remote? The controlbuttons for music?
Thanks in advance
I'm not really a music listener on portable devices but did plug in my wife's iPhone headphones and they worked, as expected. Didnt try out the controls though.
Yes, I knew that the earphones worked. But I don't know whether or not the mic are working?
They should work.
An HTC representative have tried the HTC headphones in an iPhone 3G with a working mic and controllers, so the Apple earphones should also work in an HTC phone.

I have the in-ear ones, and the mic does work. Just not the controls, pause, volume up and down etc.
My iPhone earphones work fine. The mic works, as does the click to pause function. The only thing that doesn't work on them is the volume control, but that never worked with my iPhone 3G either (although these weren't the original headphones that came with the 3G so I think they're the 3GS version)

And you have tested it on the HTC Desire?
If I were you I'd invest in a decent set of headphones if you're looking to use them regularly. Apple headphones that come with any ipod are terrible. I used a pair for a over a year and only when I bought a replacement pair of decent Sony headphones did I realise how bad the Apple ones really are.
Combined with Meridian Player pause and play will work
Hello again,
after a year of being absent to the forum - since i got my iphone - i now choosed to buy the desire and am realy interested to use my apple earphones.
i bought the better ones with two drivers each side and have to say, that these pair are really good.
Because of the open-source character of the os, it should be possible to add some compiled sourcecode, like an threaded app, that reads the input of the headset controls and after it alter the volume, shouldn´t it?
thank you
Yep that sounds like a great idea! I just wish I could code lol

Yeah apologies, that's actually what I meant. Just to clarify the mic works fine and the click button pauses / starts music. The volume control however doesn't work.

I agree with the normal bundle ones. However the new in-ear Apple headphones are great, but you would expect they would be for £60. Had over 8 pair of other headphones in the last couple of years, and I can say for me and the music I listen they are very very good.

Just wanted to let you know that the Griffin iTalk remote works fine. Play/pause works in the standard music app, but not skip forward or backwards. If I am using Spotify however, skip forward works but not backwards. The Mic also works fine. There is no volume slide.
I'm sat here listening to Spotify on my Desire and realised that double-clicking on Apple iPhone headphones skips tracks. Pretty cool
So will ones made by 3rd parties (Skull Candy for example) which include mics work too?
etymotic hf 2 for desire??
Hi guys, u'm hoping to buy the etymotic hf2 headset with the Mic to go with my desire.. would u guys by any chance know wether it would work?? I mean de Mic and the music controls. Iv noticed when I plug in my old Nokia headset de sound is muffled. Thanks in advance.
I soldered some sony-in-ears onto the original one.
The original earphones fall out of my ear, it's bad fit. Soldering works fine, I still have remote+antenna and GOOD sound

Then the surprise comes not expect it to work the remote control that is integrated and works partially, you can call, answer and end calls, and put the pause and play the music
The only thing that does not work, which would be perfect, are the keys to raise and lower the volume, it hurts, but it will not work as thought nothing, because something good is, that almost complete functionality. even though I have to see if it works the handsfree, (micro) to hopefully work to see if you then test and confirm
Worth it because as you know these headphones are of very good quality, if you could make any application or modify the registry or something to activate the function of the volume and would be perfect.
if anyone knows anything, I would be very well the Swift.
greetings!
EDIT:
Confirm! the speakerphone(microphone) works perfect
sorry for my english guys.
Ups, sorry for double thread, as you can delete the other?
Hum...I don't know if I am the only one, but I really hate the iPhone's headset.
But it's a good thing to see it works with the Leo.

The iphone/ipod headphones are quite horrible compared to a pair of sennheiser in-ears (or most other 'real' headphone brands), why do so many people think they're so good?
I got a pair of sennheiser MM50ip headphones but they only have one button, the mic works well though.

Man!! do not compare, the iphone headphone, sounds good but not profesional quality
the sennheiser is the master of the sound, is other world, is the perfect sound.
is like comparing a street car with a ferrari jeje
greetings!
we know
there are lots of iphone compatible headphones around, that do work with the HD2 (and the HD) I have a few sets.
My favourite ones are some really cheap ones I bought for less than 15gbp, especially as they are cheap enough that I dont care if I damage them
(I've just found some mm50ip for 18gbp - 5% )!
But you lose the music control (<< and >>) by not using the included ones, so one option is to solder some earbuds onto the existing HD2 controls..
this really should be in the accessories forum.

I would be very carefull when buying good heaphones for such a cheap price, I originally cancelled my order with amazon twice after I found this great website http://fakeheadphones.com and made sure I was getting them from amazon directly!! As I didnt want to end up with a pair of duds
After showing that site to one of my mates, he worked out he'd been sold fakes from ebay a while ago... he wondered why they broke so quickly!
If it's too good to be true...walk away
Hello fellas!
just buy an adaptor with remote and plug your favorite inears toy!
check 4 it on ebay.
XD
Ipod earbuds are really bad. Not clear, bad lows, bad highs. Just look at headfi.org and watch for a good headset like nuforce ne-7m (only a a bit more expansive then Senheisser) or some RE0. Senheisser is really popular but just as bose, you pay for the name. But they aren't bad. Once you hear the difference between some apple earbuds and some high quality one's you never go back.

I guess perhaps all headphones with remotes for the 3Gs would work then???
funny thing is iPhone is so annoyed of Google...they are considering to makeBING their default search engine...
Microsoft and Apple cooperation would be pure comedy. lol
The apple headphones aren't the best, i agree. But the remote function is bloody excellent and there are some quality headphones from top companies that support apple but not htc. If this could be developed it would be great but it's not likely. At this rate, ill be heading back to the iphone, the phones just too convenient.
i have the headphones that work fine. they are good in quality and reasionable at price.
how much cost this headphones?
i wonder how is this relevant to HD2 themes and apps?
this should be in the accessories section!!!
hey guys, does the soundmagic mp21 mic works with samsung galaxy s? if not, any earphone with mic for recommendation?
thanks.
I hear that the klipsch s2m works for the sgs, but can't confirm it. You can always consider a transformer with mic, that you can use normal 3.5 plug instead of pin

I have Klipsch S2m and it works with my Vibrant so it must work with i9000.
Ow, great. Can you tell your experiens with them. What kind of sound works best for them and build quility?
Honestly, I am a wannabe audiophile. I am just starting to get into the world of audiophile. An audiophile friend of mine suggested it to me cuz it was on sale.
I would say the sound is pretty good. It is a direct sound and definitely not soft or anything. As far as calls go, I have good experience with these so I am pretty happy.
I don't have any problems with these so far so I think they are good.
good to hear cause I am also browsing around looking for a replacement ear/mic headset.
I do really hope this works for our SGS because this model Klipsch S2m is also listed in the apple store as iphone compatible. and to my knowledge iphone heatsets do not work with SGS.
so I'm a little confused ...
It is advertised as iPhone compatible but it does work with my vibrant... idk what is happening...
Actually, my friend said my phone would work before I bought it so...
Nokia AD-54 / HS-45 adaptor’s inline mic works on my international i9000GT, and many others have reported it working on other variants of Galaxy S.
IMO this is the best option right now because it lets you connect your own headphone .

Does anyone know of any good headset adapters that actually work?
I would use the Samsung stock headset but they HAD to be in-ear, I can't use in-ear because my ears block up easily.
I want something simple like the post above but I want one that has a functional media key.
Also, how do you guys SKIP SONGS?! D:

you can use any phones with nokia adaptors, but not iphone compatible phones.

works fine and sound is definitely awesome
For those who are interested the Sennheiser MM50 for Nokia v2 work perfectly fine! Exactly like the MM50 for iPhones that I had before then.
I would post a link to what they look like but unfortunately I'm not allowed to!

They will work as intended. Pick up/drop a call, pause/play music and mic works as well, a mic really!
Only issue I have come across is with Froyo JP1/JP3/JPC, where if you keep pulling and plugging the earphones in, the buttons will not work as intended, but after you reset the phone it works as normal.
JPK seems to be working fine and Eclair on the other hand works perfectly fine!
Also there is only one button on this earphone.
Hi..

Ultimate ears has very expensive in ear headphones, dont be shocked by the prices. scroll down and get a vi model, they vary from 19 dollar to 400 dollar, mine where 39 dollar (vi version) and you can call with it, regulate sound and skip through numbers, best in ear phones imho
Any links for over head headphones ( if that's what their called lol) not beats by see though.

Sennheiser has the MM series. Most of iPhone capable MMs are compatible with android 3,5 mm audio/mic jack
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb...ords=sennheiser+mm&x=0&y=0&sprefix=sennheiser
Hmm, that's cool
So, the Sennheiser MM70i should do be compatible right??
http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheiser/home_en.nsf/root/private_headsets_mobile_music_504161
I have ones Sennheiser, don't recall the model, but it only has call control and it works with my Touch HD. I hope that the MM70i works full with android phones...
Liking the look of the Sennheisers
Liking the look of the Sennheisers - found some for under £50 at lambdatek.
Can anyone confirm they can make/receive calls on the desire HD suing these phones and that they will operate android MP3 players that are not built by HTC (e.g spotify etc.)

That would be great if anyone could confirm this...
I've tried various headsets from Nokia and Samsung, but the microphones don't even work with the Desire or DHD, let alone the play/pause/skip buttons. Not a fan of the in ear headsets myself, but would be interested in a slightly longer set than the ones that come with these handsets.

Same here with some Bose earbuds slapped on to them, only problem is the volume isn't that great plus I use the A2DP Volume app and that doesn't do much in the way of boosting the volume.
If the MM70i's work then I'll get them until someone can confirm it I'll stick with the jabra.

Iv not seen anything that could let you use that type of earphone sorry...
I have tried two different earphones that have inline controls and found that the play/hold to skip etc button will work but the others such as volume wont. So not sure if skip buttons would work anyway, just to let you know.
The hardware case wouldn't match the stick, I'm afraid, so i won't think it will ever work.
I have a headset that came with my desire that has music controls similar to the one posted above. I'll try attaching a pic of it now. Its an official HTC product.
EDIT: Pictures attached

HTC provides us by the good headphones, i have this one
Lookin for an In-ear headset with remote for my Desire S
Sure we got a headset from HTC which came with the phone, and while the remote controller on the headset is great, the earphones themself are unconfortable and their sound quality is just not well enough.
Thats why im hunting on the internet for some propper headset with a remote, which can controll the music player on my Desire S.
Sadly, I didn't find it so far...
I'd really appreciate if someone could suggest me a Brand, who makes compatible In-Ear style earphones for HTC phones.
think this will give you what you want
Have been using these with a set of senheiser headphones, Works great.

you can buy the apple in ear phones if you dont mind wearing this trendy piece of sh**! I dont think it'll work with the stock player, but works with powerAMP and PlayerPro. I use the 'stock-apple-headphones' with the controll (with playerPRO) and I dont see why it shouldnt work with the in ear phones.
Im not allowed to post external links, just google for 'apple in ear headphones'

If you want to get a little creative with a pair of in ear buds. Going to try this this week.
Try some skullcandies. They are excellent sound quality, warranty is awesome (mechanical failure- free replacement, you break them- 50% off next skullcandies)
Some variants of the in ear headphones have in line controls, but they are about the size of the iPod ones, not sure if that's big enough for you...
Or, if you want to risk it... Try splicing the cable =)
I'm not sure if you've sorted this problem, but I just tried looking for the same thing.. HTC here sells in-ear headphones with limited controls (it plays/pauses and double clicks for next, but it is supposed to triple click to reverse.. as if) anyway, they aren't that good, but they do work with HTC gear..
BUT - today I went to a Sony Ericsson store and they had bluetooth headphones with FULL controls.. large like the ones you posted and they worked perfectly on my Desire.. they were expensive though... and I've never road tested them, but in the store, they were amazing.
if you google Sony Ericsson Bluetooth headphones, they come up right away.. there are a couple different models and you can switch the buds as well, which I hadn't realised.. (I never thought to check, but the SE ones sounded good anyway)
Well your headphone has a 3.5mm port but they appear to have an extra part that fits into something. It's hard to explain... erm in the pic to the bottom left so I wouldn't be too sure if they'd work or not. HTC give you free headphones with their phones but frankly They're not very well shaped for inside the ear as they're a complete round shape and are uncomfortable and awkward. I want to find better ones with all the music controls...
I use a pair of these:
klipsch. com/ na-en/ products/ image-s4i-overview
They're designed for the iPhone but they give pretty awesome quality and can be had pretty cheap now they're a bit older.
Pretty much any third party music player app can manipulate the middle button and you can answer calls/use the mic with them too.
I use PowerAmp and a single click on the middle button plays/pauses music, double click goes to the next track and triple click the previous. Unfortunately the volume up/down buttons don't work, but doesn't bother me as I can press the side volume keys on the phone through my jeans

Has anyone tried a set of headphones designed for the iPhone? I am partial to Sennheiser headphones myself and they do a set for that phone that has some similar controls.
Otherwise I will just hack a solution out of the set of headphones supplied with my soon to be purchased Desire S and my current pair of Sennheiser in ears. I am also tempted to make a setup for my HD 465 over the head headphones.

I got last summer zagg smartbuds and since then I have no problem at all.
I use PlayerPro.
The good thing about smartbuds over the other ones is that they have their own volume control (a sliding button) so 1 click for pause, 2 clicks for next, and 3 for previous and also volume control without touching the phone.

Hi guys,
Got my SGS last week and imediately go tinto Darky's 9.5 and Oh Boy! what a fun device it has become!
But I am not able to use the poswer of VOODOO because of pathetic stock earphones.
I wanted to know what all you guys are using. I have tried Sennheiser c300 from a friend it was amazing. I have been going through forums but getting diverse views on compatibility for earphones like 'Kilpsch Image S4', 'Etymotic MC-3' about compatibility.
Can we build a database of compatible headphones/earphones to unleash the beast called Voodoo. Please name only those earphones/headphones that you can guarantee works for SGS:
< $50
$50-$100
$100-$200
>$200

Hi guys,
Got my SGS last week and imediately go tinto Darky's 9.5 and Oh Boy! what a fun device it has become!
But I am not able to use the poswer of VOODOO because of pathetic stock earphones.
I wanted to know what all you guys are using. I have tried Sennheiser c300 from a friend it was amazing. I have been going through forums but getting diverse views on compatibility for earphones like 'Kilpsch Image S4', 'Etymotic MC-3' about compatibility.
Can we build a database of compatible headphones/earphones to unleash the beast called Voodoo. Please name only those earphones/headphones that you can guarantee works for SGS:
< $50
$50-$100
$100-$200
>$200
It will help all users wanting to get a new earphone.

is this the white one with the microphone? does it work for you? it doesnt for me
I would recommend Klipsch Image S4 if they work...few around on eBay for like $60...good deal...when I say 'if they work' its because I own the S4i which do not work..but I believe that's because of the control/remote...

To use a headset designed for the iPod on your SGS you need an adapter that swaps the connections from the second ring and the sleeve in the TRRS (tip, ring1, ring2, sleeve) plug configuration. I got one from kvconnection called the "iPhone headset to other cellphone headset jack adapter." It's a bit pricey, but well made. I'm sure you can find cheaper ones.
With this adapter, I don't have to hold down the remote button to hear the music properly on my Klipsch Image One and the play/pause button works, unfortunately the volume buttons still don't work.

These are some quality headphones that are working fine on SGS (including the microphone) and the best advantage is that you can use your favorite set of headphones with them because of that 3.5mm standard stereo jack they have in the microphone housing.

Works with Iphone, not Nokia/Galaxy S plug. Also buttons will never work. Read supercurio's thread for this.
if you want high bass headphones with a better soundbase, get the MDR-XB700's instead. No batteries needed and very deep and clear bass. MDR-XB500 are good alternative under 50E. Note that these headphones dont have support for mic so might be a bit off topic...
If you want something really cheap with good bass and clarity, JVC Marshmallow can be found under 10$.
Of course they are lacking in the medium range as almost every earbuds under 50$ do, but they are a definite improvement over the stock ones.
I'm using them with this to add mic, radio and the button (which is working as intended, 2 clicks = next track).
Hey dude i am from mumbai ..i am using Sony MDR-XB20 ITS THE BEST.. comes for 1800Rs
Awesome Headphone

Klipsch Image S4 works great and I haven't had any problems at all, but if you have tv-out turned on you will hear a low swooshing sound.
Are there any headphones out there with controls on ??
when im out walking my dogs, i dont have a hand free to get into my pocket unlock the screen and skip track.
its kinda difficult. and controls around my neck would make life so much easier
I bought a pair of fischer audio dba-02 iem's. The best sounding headphones i have ever had. Clear, precise and combined with voodoo sound make every song new again.

Yes it fixed the 'muffled' sound ! The headphones sound just like they should, unfortunately the remote does not work.

Work with Cyanogen Mod 7 in Galaxy S ??
sony ericsson mw600 is good (bluetooth) with display
I have the Bose MIE2. They don't work well with the SGS. The volume is soft, the mic doesn't work and neither does the button.
I bought a cable from KV connection ($20). The volume is OK and the sound is excelent (good bass) now and the mic works, but the button doesn't work. Auto answer sloves that partially, but you can't skip songs.
