My headset was washed by my washing machine and lost bass?Any way to get a new one? - HTC Sensation

I was so careless that i forgot to take my new htc headset out of my pocket and then it was washed.I used hair drier to blow hot wind to let it dry.
When it was dry,I use it to listen to music and found that it lost bass.
This headset is from my new Sensation 4G,and i am really sad with it washed.
I just want to change another one,should i go to T-Mobile store?Is it free or how much should i pay?
Thanks.

Options, and cheap, abound. Try Wallyworld.

You mean i should go to Wallyworld.com to buy a new one?Or it called Wallyworld?

That headset isnt all that. You could possibly get another directly from HTC, but I wouldnt bother. As the above poster said, try getting a pair from walmart. Ill recommend the JVC Marshmellow line, they have great bass. ive had 4 pairs to date...
Edit: Wallyworld is a nickname for WALMART. You can also get the earphones I recommended for much cheaper at Amazon; any earphones for that matter are cheaper there.

The phone's back cover is free so i wonder if the headset is free as well.

I would try calling HTC and saying the headphones stopped working or one side goes dead...they might just send you out a free pair like they do the backcover.

I personally like the Creative EP-630i (http://amzn.com/B002EL4MY8) - though they are much cheaper over here. They are very comfortable to wear and provide good sound quality. The in-line clicker allows for easy control of podcasts and music playback as well as calls. They provide a microphone for hands-free calling as well - which I use daily.
Any iPhone-compatible headsets are generally compatible with most Android handsets (even Samsungs now, with the GS2) - if you want more control over how the clicker on these headphones (or any other earphones with buttons) functions, get Headset Button Controller from the Android Market http://goo.gl/Dv18m

HTC Nexus One accessories on HTC WEBSITE!!!!!! TRUE

when i called in to buy a new headphone, the guy told me to go online and purchase "Desire" accessories and that they will work on nexus one, and they do ship to usa (only accessories) not the actual phone. GREAT COLLECTION THERE
THERE IS A HEADPHONE THAT SUPPORTS THE FM RADIO(sweeeeeeet) time to ask paul about good luck (TONS OF STUFF ) Most will work for nexus one i bought lots of stuff $126.89
Here is the link
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_phone.aspx?i=196001
SOME WILL NOT WORK ON NEXUS, but the screen protectors obviously will work
I recently bought the stylus, works like a charm. Good for keeping finger prints off the phone
Lets hope the headphones get the FM radio working!

Peripherals won't activate inactive hardware, especially when there's no code to support those peripherals.
For FM I use the Sony Ericsson MW600. The thing comes standard with a SE X10 so it works fine with the N1. The only thing it doesn't do is list the song on the headset. The FM radio lists the song though.
Did anyone else order???????
i will report as soon as my headphone get to my house, i'm soooooo excited about fm radio.
oh by the way i ordered android sleeve like the nexus1 one. i think it will be alright.
DID ANYONE ELSE ORDER???????

so you are confirming that FM radio works on the nexus one with an FM headset?
I bought an EU Desire Charger last thursday, arrived yesterday (did import the N1 with US Charger which doesn't work in germany.. got tired of charging via USB)
But the headphones don't have the android on it :/

No the Sony Ericsson MW600 has the FM radio. It's not playing through the N1, rather, the headphone set itself.

thats good, but i found out that its expensive.
I rather get my $575 phone to run a radio,and not pay another 100 for just a radio,if my phone is capable , then it will happen
i just cant believe i paid that much money for accessories. YES CALL ME CRAZY
I even bought all android devices that are available for us t-mobile
have anyone purchase anything that actually worked
I HAVEN'T RECEIVED MY STUFF YET(probably because it coming from UK to US)
its a good thing the website I guess BUT dam those are expensive items, is that general prices in the UK ? you can get about the same thing for allot cheaper in the US or Canada,
updated
P.S. sorry got a bit confused with the exchange rate, but they still are more expensive then if buying in the USA.

Lost my OEM Epic Headset

I recently lost my Samsung Epic Headset. I was wondering where i can get replacements or actually if there are better earbuds that are compatible with our phones.
What are you guys using for your everyday listening and talking purposes?

Just find your closest service and repair Sprint store and ask them for a pair, I'm sure they will have extras.

i'm using SGS in car (as second phone) with data SIM for listening Internet Radio and for Waze or Google Maps and it's perfect with CM 4.3.1 (MacKay Rom). But you can buy some cheap dual or quadcore phone - its better in our reality.

For that cheap I dont know...In the past I had a knock off sony ericsson bt headset. Even though it looked like the OEM product, the unit itself was a copy and was not up to par. It worked, but not to specs.
Looking at the headset itself it looks legit. But being from China, it's a crapshoot.
I have the black ones, but I bought it stateside. I guess you can try and report back if you are brave enough

HD2,HD3,HD7
I didn't know there was an HD3
They do look very much like the ones that came with my XE (except the XE ones are black. Apparently the XL ones are white).
However, there's no small ziplock bag of ear tips/clothing clip in the photo.
Also take a look at their negative/neutral feedback. Lots of complaints that the seller has fake stock of various items.
My guess is that they're using a photo of genuine headphones but you'll receive something different...
I'd avoid. In fact, i'd always avoid buying 'genuine' items from China/Hong Kong/Thailand etc.
I ordered these ones:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/20068164169...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_5063wt_1185
Don't even know why I waste so much money especially when I'm in school. This is going to bite me in the ass one day.
These seem real enough, they even have the "urBeats" on them. I don't think "iBeats" with the XE headset controls exist.. so I trusted this seller enough and if I find out it's fake or something then I'll deal with that then!
i ordered today one of these:

Cool deal! Too bad I paid almost double for it lol...but it was someone here in the US, so I was cool paying for the peace of mind I guess
EDIT:
Just a fyi for people who use the ibeats. This app may work for other headphones with button/mic combos like the beats headsets.
I use this free app called jays headset app. This can be found in the market and can make your earbuds/headphones have volume control with a long press/two press combo to increase and decrease the volume.

to be honest I compared them to rezound beats that my friend has and they are 1000% the same

Android device as a PMP?

Anyone got a suggestion on some good android phones I could look up ebay/craigslist to use as a PMP?
My budget is $100 or so, and I realize I won't get top of the line, but used is fine.
A used Optimus One on various prepaids seems to go for $40-$50, so I'm hoping for something that has a tad better spec.
Pick up a used vibrant and enjoy awesome sound quality with a voodoo sound kernel.. Can be bought for like 125 if you catch a deal.

There's a Samsung Galaxy media player...but it's a bit pricier.
Does it have to be a phone?
Why not just buy a PMP? Where's the necessity that it be Android?
If you looked hard enough, you could probably find a Philips for that price, especially if you're willing to buy used.
But my thoughts are, well, if it doesn't need phoning capabilities, you could probably get more GB for your buck.

You would think, but it's not true. Most MP3 players in the $50 dollar range suck.
Also the galaxy players are, as you saw - pricey. I'm looking for something cheap.
And I want it to be an android because I have a galaxy nexus, so I own paid apps that I could use on it as well.
I found a galaxy S for $65 on craigslist, seems like a pretty good deal as long the phone isn't in terrible condition.

Sounds like you could just use your Nex, but instead you'll then be carrying around a lot of extra functionality (carrying a Nexus around to be used as a phone/surfer and another Andy as a PMP), but I'm not one to judge. To each his own. If it were me, I'd buy another battery for the Nex and use the sh*t out of that! The PPI-count on that thing is sensational!!
An HTC HD2 may be just the device for you, but scoring one for a C-note will be a challange, I'd bet. Hack Android onto it, and BAAAAMMM!!
don't get htc, the audio sucks, even on beats models
(sucks in a comparative sense, not subjective)

I'm looking for a cheap alternative mostly because I will be abusing it more and I want to keep my expensive phone pristine.

The sound on the HD2 sucks. Even with decent headphones. It's not bad over BT stereo, though, considering how bad BT stereo is to begin with. I'm not really an Apple fan, but the iPod Classics have a tremendous sound and enormous capacity. I use a 160GB iPod to tote around a chunk of my collection. The built in EQ is pretty handy as well. You can pick them up used for less than $100 also.
Well I picked up a bootlooping galaxy S for $40. Hopefully I can get it working
The stock recovery was corrupted so the volume keys weren't working.
Oh yeh, got me a working galaxy S! Sure beats any $40 PMP out there!
