Hi Guys
I've been looking for a nice headphones with mic and control buttons for my Legend
Unfortunately companies make only ones for iPhone
Apple does not like us to use them
So they have put a chip which allows them to work only with idevices
When u connect them to legend mic do not work (but the phone recognize it as coneceted)
Only central button works (allows u to play and stop music only)
I've read that there is a patch for HTC magic
Which allows to use iPhone ones
I've been wondering is there a way to make them work on legend as well
If anyone have any info about how to do it please help

Hi yeah the htc headphones are terrible but you will also find that the iphone/ipod 4 headphones work too for android phones
my sister has a ipod 4 and got a set from the apple store 25 gbp logitec ones sounds very nice and bass is great too inner ear ones 3 button control
i tried these on my phone and they worked but only one button worked but that could be due to cm7 but any iphone/ipod 4 ones will work
Hope this is of help

The problem is that microphone is not working
At the end I bought sennheiser px200-lli, they have a brilliant sound quality and they can b folded to small size
I hope I'll manage to make them work somehow
Anyway thanks

Anyone with an Atrix bought the sensation yet?
Specifically, Is the sound quality ok (I have an Atrix and I think sound is the best of any device I ever owned) ...

Not a Sensation owner (yet, mine is coming soon), so I can't judge on a first-person perspective.
However, I can refer you to an extensive review done by GSMArena that tests this area as well.

That is so disappointing. The Nexus One speaker was a joke. It's not important to many people, but I listen to podcasts and satellite radio over the loudspeaker while doing work and the Nexus One couldn't be heard over even the slightest bit of noise. Maybe root and DSP will help, but this makes switching to the Sensation a much tougher decision than I thought it would be.
I dont understand what it is with HTC these cheap POS speakers...at least the ones on the G2 and the MyTouch4g had decent volume
The older buisness phones like the kaiser and the touchpro had very good speakers but thats probably because they were designed to be used on speaker phone alot more.
The speaker on the sensation is not that bad for calls but if you were planning on listening to music on it you will be disapointed, but I dont imagine anyone would want listen to music on a phone speaker

i do and most of my friends do as well. Sony and Samsung phones sound SO good that you would think a small audio system is playing not a cell phone. loud too. useful at BBQs, listen to radio before bedtime, at work etc.
HD2 and Nexus One have been very disappointing in this department. Sony Music phone and Vibrant have been very good.
I definitely think that the external speaker volume is lower than my hd2, which was really loud. Is there a software fix for that?

Player pro was the only fix I could find. But it plays the music louder than every other player I tried. It's made my loudspeaker serviceable until we can get rooted.

I'm thinking that player pro would be for music, what about general system sounds, like notifications, coming out the speaker?

Not the SGS2. It's speaker is maybe a little bit better than the DHDs, which is CRAP (imo)
The speaker is one of the only things that the iPhone 4 does better than the latest HTC flagships.

While the SGS phones are amazing compared to the N1, that doesn't say much. I come from the Motorola Droid series and those things are like boomboxes compared to any of these phones. SE seems to do a good job too. SGS is in the middle of the pack. I need my ringer on 5/7 or 6/7 to hear it outdoors for my Nexus S, but the Milestone rings like a champ at 3/7.
But here's the thing. The N1 also had a crappy earpiece. How is the earpiece on the Sensation? As important as speakerphone is, I'm sure the earpiece is even more important. If you can't make calls on the earpiece, then how is speakerphone gonna fix anything?
If where talking about ringing. I can hear the sensation with no problems. When I get a call.

I've a Klipsch Image One to listen music and it comes with iPhone micro and volume control.
For my tests I could see that the Desire doesn't recognize the micro part well
Is there an app or a tip to get the control working correctly ?
I don't like the standard earphones as they are too big, but there's no choice of good quality earphones (in ear please!) coming for htc. Most of them are unfortunely designed for iPhone so mix and controls won't work htc devices.
Is there any software that can fix that?
Does anyone have headphones with track controls (next song, previous song) or do you guys know if they work with Android?
I know that it works with iphones but I don't know about androids. I am not sure if this is a software or hardware thing??
I googled around and found out that the music controls work on some android phones so maybe it has to do with the drivers/manufacturers?
This is in the wrong section.
You should have either posted in the Q&A or Accessories.

Yep I use the Klipsch Image S4i (made for iPods, which I use with my iPod) and only the play/pause works. That's because it's made for iPods/iPhones. There's an alternate android version available.
If a music app support headset control then yes those headphones should work. So it depends on the app.
For example, the headphones that come with the MT4G had rewind/play pause/forward buttons which worked on the phone with any music app but those buttons don't work at all on my G2x, unless the app supports it.

I have these and they work fine: tap to pause, hold to skip forward and double-tap to skip backward.

edit: On second thought, they don't seem to work on Arcee's CM9 (tried Google Music, Ubermusic and Playerpro). They worked fine on MIUI.
These work with android, but are a little on the pricey side. definitely some of the best in ear headphones though.
They have an app you can download on the market, so should work with any rom/phone

Funny, I was just opening this thread to suggest those. I have the original S4 buds and they are amazing. Best sound for under $300 many say. You wouldnt regret that purchase.

Power amp has its own options for headset controls.
play/pause and double tapping for skip track all work.
My beats with controltalk work very well with CM9....actually better than CM7.....
im using yurbuds inspire on weapon r > new clipped and beats mod, vol controls don't work but on stock music player middle button answers calls mic works fantastic , and middle button also pauses / plays tracks. w power amp and head set controls double click advances track and triple click restarts or skips back.
with beats and power amps eq they sound increadable
I have a Belkin stereo bluetooth receiver paired with my One X. The audio is very quiet and sounds like it's in a tunnel or a tin can.
I've tried every audio "filter" on the phone and it still sounds pretty much the same, just with more or less bass.
Plugging the phone directly into the aux port sounds great.
Any ideas?
My bluetooth audio isnt great either. Not terrible but not great. I use a Motorola T505.
However I just installed the DSP Manager app and disabled the stock music app/sound enhancer app/beats notifier thing.
The dsp app has improved the Bluetooth audio. It's not perfect and I'm still playing around but looks promising.

Welcome to HTC Sense based ROMS the default bitpool setting for NON officially supported bluetooth devices is set to 32 which is causing your sound quality issue. This has been happening since the HTC Hero ROM and I have personally reported this issue to HTC support twice now the last time I reported this problem was when I got my HTC EVO 4G 2 years ago. Here is my post from Aug 2010 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7805461&postcount=4
I also recently tried to get this looked into again last week so far the best response I have received is "we will forward this to the appropriate blah blah blah" I'm not holding my breath on this problem ever being fixed the only thing we can hope for is a CM port for our phones since AOSP ROMS are the only ones that default to 53 giving you full quality.

My bluetooth is garbage as well.
I connected it to every bluetooth enabled car stereo that I sell (electronics store) and on all of the radios, my phones bluetooth starts to cutout/drop if i move more than a couple feet away.
Emailed / Called many times, no fix or solution offered.
Mine sounds pretty good. But I have beats wireless so its probably got better sound quality because of HTC being partnered with beats or whatever

Volume+ seems to have helped quite a bit. I've removed all the other 'enhancers' and instead use this app instead. Setting it to beats emulation and +8 on the volume made a big difference. (The author also has the non free app available from his website although I personally would go ahead and pay if it works for you). Well worth the pennies.
So I just realized tha even though this phone has been advertising its "amazing" sound system with the beats logo and such, the media output throught speakers is too damn quiet. Nokia phones go louder. So I was looking for a way to increase the out put with a mod or app. I tried volume+ already and no good. My phone is rooted and I am a noob to this stuff so explain it like you are explaining it to a dumbass...thanks in advance

The speaker is crap yes, but the quality if output on the HTC One S is higher than most phones, when using the headphone jack.
+1 . i used volume+ on my hov with no problem but it dont work on hos. The volume levels are awful, even my mates galaxy ace blows it away on volume . surely there must be a way to boost the max levels for ringtones etc??

Yeah it really is awful. Do you know of any mods that push the speaker to the max?

What I have done is bump my ringtone's volume on the pc (with audacity). Not really a solution, but...
You've got to bump and try on the phone to see the limit over which it gets distorted.

On JB, the speaker sucks
