Hi there,
I can tell you that the 3.5 mm jack works well (I've got a pair of Monster Turbines (without the controls on them) and for music at least, everything works GREAT) and the sound chip is better that anything I've ever heard on a phone. I've got a I9023 Nexus S too and besides the Turbines I also tried 2 other pairs of headsets, a Motorola Rokr E8 headset and a SonyErricson Xperia Headset and the microphone and controls worked well.
If your thinking of buying the JAMZ to use them as a phone HEADSET... DON'T !!! Don't ruin a perfect pair of headphones by using them as an phone headset... Before getting my Turbines I was thinking of doing the same thing, but I decided that this type of headphones are like a good wine: you need to savor them with the sound that they were meant for: MUSIC !!! If you need to answer the phone, take the phone out of your pocket, take the headphones out and answer the phone !
Hope this helps...

Thank you!I think about what you said and decide to give up on finding another headset for my Nexus S. I've got a Ipod classic and Bose in ear. The couple is so enough for me.
Thank you 4 your advise.

yes, but it depends on the brand and model
for example Motorola HT820 sounds great but the Motorola S9 sounds like garbage
same thing with Sony, Jabra, Plantonics, etc.
google up the models you have in mind, and read their reviews.

based to the original headset, does the bluetooth headsets have the same quality or is it worst/better?
Im really fussy when it comes to sound quality..but the original headset sound is passable.

i'm a moderate sound/music enthusiast, but by no way fanatic that i must have the best sound quality any device can offer.
so, i'm comfortably happy with the bluetooth headsets, the ones that are like studio type, those are the only ones that offers decent sound quality, but overall of all the ones i've used and tested, the Motorola HT820 is the best, unfortunately that model is no longer in production.
now, if you are a little above me, and you must have near perfect sound quality, then it'll be better to stick with a studio style wired headset
i've yet to find a superbly good bluetooth that can beat a wired headset.
however the sound from the bluetooth HT820 from Motorola is comparable to a wired Sony MDR-7506 or those alikes, but nothing that can beat a SCHNEIDER

With this headset you can use your own choice of headphones with the adaptor - winner - I dont use the Samsung ones.
Just tested the headphones and I think that I either I got a faulty unit or I damaged mine beacuse the audio jack does not fit properly, so I get mono sound, buzz, stereo sound, buzz, no sound :-(

GT540 Headset compatible to P500?

I want to buy an in-ear headset for the P500 but there are only few on eBay and they are quite expensive. At the same time there are a lot of such headsets for GT540 which are really chip.
So I wanted to ask if someone happens to know, whether those headsets are compatible (especially concerning the mic)? They both have mini-jack but you never know.
It should be same. I compared accessories on t-mobile and here is same headset for both phone same.
P500 Headset (ID M130N95PHFC)
GT 540 headset (ID M130N95PHFC)
Exactly same ID and also connector seems like same.
Thanks. In the meantime I've found a better one:
LG SGEY0005576
Here is a proof that it should work with P500

I got those and they work, but audio quality is about as bad as with the stock ones. On the other hand you can disconnect the headphones from the headset part and connect better ones, so they're not such a waste of money
Doesn't every 3.5mm socket earphone work with the phone?

I would suggest just getting a bluetooth stereo headset, some of newer ones have decent audio quality, like motorola hd series, and will be lots better to ride your bike without extra cords, and they do have playback controls on them

Best in-ear headphones for Desire HD with Remote

Hi,
I started workin out and biking quite a bit recently and I want to purchase some earphones for my DHD. Can anyone recommend a nice set with a remote?
Thanks!
Just because I had some anyway I really like the Sony Ericsson headsets. Great sound, some have the music controls, most have a mic and can be picked up quite cheap.
The SE stereo bluetooth headsets work well too. The only issue is that song info may not be available if you go for a headset with display.
thanks for the reply. But do all the controls and mic work on the DHD?
Like these for example?

I am using Jabra street bluetooth headset..if you like using Bluetooth then I recommend it.. good voice clarity and good backup also. Once I charge it fully I can listen to songs 8 hrs continuously

Just to let you know, it's not worthit buying any expensive set for them... DHD has *crap* audio output even from the stereo jack output...
I don't say this because I like it either

So true... One of the reason I'm very interested in the Sensation with it's "Hi-Fi audio"
I have the AH-C560R from Denon, the remote is useless (not working even on Gingerbread which was suppose to fix that...), the sound quality is really bad for me due to the DHD audio output (this thing is a joke, really !!!)
If you have experience in soldering you can do it like me:
1. take an old SonyEricsson Headset with the good inEar Phones (W810i)
2. take the stock Headset from the DHD
3. Open the 3 buttons on den DHD headset with a flat screwdriver or your fingernails
4. Desolder the old phones and remove they
5. cutt off the 3.5mm Phonejack from the SE Phones
6. solder the SE Phones to the DHD remote
7. fix all with a few drops of hot glue
8. putt the buttons back on the remote
Enjoy a new soundexperience

You seriously think it has a crappy audio output? I mean i agree on the speaker part but the headphone jack isn't bad by a long shot. Atleast not compared to my previous two phones (Xperia X1, HTC Hero).
On-Topic:
I am using the sennheiser cx 400 II, these work awesome however no headset control. It get's bothersome when riding my bike but i just cant manage to find a good pair without paying to much.
am using SONY MDR-XB40EX, good sound and bass but no remote...
What about the jabra rhythm headphones ? They tell they are compatible with dhd and they have mic, call/play/pause and skip tracks buttons ! Exactly like the stocks one. They cost 30$ on ebay !

Did exactly this but use a set of senn's, I use poweramp & headset button app to get volume control. The results are awesome.
Would show a pic but not allowed!
Bluetooth
i dont know but the corded headsets, not a fan as they tangle and get in the way.
but i got Sony MW600 bluetooth headset, and its great, got 12hr music time, volume controls, pause play skip back and forward and answer hangup controls. also its got a buit in fm radio transmitter, and they have a great in ear buds in 3 diferent sizes also u can actually connect any 3.5mm headphones into it
maybe worth checking out
I use westone 3 in ear headphones, they don't have a mic but whenever someone calls me i just bring my phone closer to my mouth lol
I don't think the sound from the Desire HD through headphones is that bad, it's probably on a par with my old Nokia N96. Still, if you're into high quality audio you shouldn't really be using a mobile phone for your music!
the westone's retail for about £250 UK
R u sure the sony m600 have fm transmitter? Cos I looked all over the net and all it says that it got fm radio receiver, not transmitter

Got myself Phonak Audeo PFE 112s recently for just under 100GBP, must say the audio output on DHD is not that bad, it's not as good as an iPod touch but still really decent, especially if you use an equaliser such as powerAMP player.
But anyway would recommend the Phonak's to everyone, really good sound quality and they come with a mic and a single button that works with my DHD.
Having gone through quite a bit of experimentation on this, this is the optimal setup for me...
Sony Ericsson MW600 the three remote buttons all work well, but don't use the heat set provided, go for the...
Klipsch Image S4, very good, comfortable in the ear, though not noise canceling they do cut out a lot of external noise.
Finally PowerAmp, you won't get a better music player for the DHD that accommodates Bluetooth Stereo. Has it's only Equaliser and if you use the headset wired direct to the phone it will also allow you to use the Dolby and SRS effects for your DHD.

Agreed, I originally had a pair of Sennie CX300 II but I snapped the cable when it got caught on a door handle and thus ruined the headphones so I've gone and replaced them with a pair of CX500. Whilst they don't have a remote I think they offer the best sound quality, and best noise cancellation, for the price you pay.

Sound Quality

Can anyone with the phone comment on the sound quality of the Sensation? Also, is the volume as low through headphones as most previous HTC phones?
I use PowerAmp with pair of senhiser, sound loud and quality is awesome.
using a good set of headphones, the sound is really good!, like Hassan said, sound quality is very good and you can change the settings to how you like it.
Without headphones in its acceptable... not great, not terrible, but acceptable

Nice to know that I won't be wasting a pair of Westone 4s by playing my media on the Sensation.
But if you replace the original headphones of HTC, you then cant use it as a hands free speaker right? so would a person have to carry 2 sets of headphones? one for music and one if he wants to talk to someone using the hands free speaker?
Yes i think thats a downside of using own headset.

While I am still waiting for my Sensation, if this handset works the same as previous HTC phones (and there is all indication that it does), any iPhone compatible headset should work just fine.
I've been using the Creative EP-630i (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Creative-EP...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1306766090&sr=8-1) with my HTC Nexus One and Samsung Galaxy S2. The clicker as well as the microphone work as expected. The clicker accepts or ends (long press) calls and performs special functions (like play/pause) in applications that support headset buttons (like the music player, BeyondPod, doubleTwist, ...). The in-line microphone on these earbuds is perfect for calling.
As I wrote previously, any other iPhone-headsets should perform well with this phone (and, as a matter of fact, most other Android phones). The Galaxy S (not 2!) is a popular exception as Samsung used a proprietary connector they have now deprecated with the S2.

You can also buy adapters that add a mic and button control to regular headphones.
Example:

Here's a thought - I've never had any Android phone before so I'm not sure whether this is possible, but on my N96 I can use regular phones as hands free while using the device's mic. That's also how I plug it into my car - I have an auxiliary 3.5 input that I simply connect my phone to and it works seamlessly.
Would this work on the Sensation as well?

this has worked for me on my hd2... so i assume it will work on sensation too
Guys,
please, leave alone headphones What is the sound quality of loudspeaker and speakerphone? Older HTC android devices were so poor in this department - is sensation any different in sound quality?
Loudspeaker is 'ok', moved on slightly from Desire HD but nothing more.
However it is nice to see that equalizer options are finally available via bluetooth, including SRS. Sounds great with a good pair of bluetooth headphones
Soundquality is good, and the audible volume is the same as the desire hd. the bass is a little less (tested the same audio track & headphone). The higher frequencies are a bit richer (this is great is you like to listen to ye olde cbm64 SID sounds on droidplayer .

Headsets for the S3.

Hi all,
I've got a pair of Bose earbuds with the mic and media controls on the headset cord, that worked beautifully as a headset for calls on my old iPhone. I realize that the media controls will not work on android, but is there a way to use these as a headset during calls? Or if there is any black magic ways to make the media controls work too, that would be amazing.
Thanks!

I've tried many headphones on the S3 that worked fine for me on the Galaxy Nexus only to find they don't work for phone calls. The only set I've found so far that works is the iBeats that come with the HTC Rezound
List for Samsung htc sony (not sony erricson) and Nokia lumia headset and headphones that work all three buttons & mic
- urbeats
- htc beats solo
- Sony smart headset
- Nocs NS200H-00
- Nokia purity
Update as I found some more
I got the Sony Ericsson mw60 Bluetooth stereo headset. Really like the led display Full music functions such as skip, rewind etc. When I'm in my car I can plug my phone in via auxiliary on head unit. I then can use the Bluetooth for voice search, music, and phone calls. It works better than the Bluetooth in the actual headset. There the hm300 by Samsung that has lossless audio but I can't complain about the quality on the Sony and the led display just sells it. Especially when I'm at work I can control the phone without having to touch it.

No because the headset was made for only apple products (hardware and not software is what's stoping the other 2 buttons from working)
Here's a few in ear headphones you could buy with android 3buttons that will work on the s3 and s4
Soul sl99s (don't forget the s in the end)
Ajay fives (android version)
Nokia purtity inear (they say windows phone but will work on android too)
Htc Urbeats (1st version also they say htc but will work on samsung s3)
APP (free) you could use with the headphone I just listed is called ajay headset control
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.jays.headsetcontrol
Hope that helps!
They also have android 3button cable
That would on few on and in ear headphones like beats solo or soul headphones

Radioshack has one for $10.

Best Buy also has some for $20. I live in the city so I don't have to travel far for a good deal.
