Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a replacement headset for the SGS (the bundled one's sound doesn't cut it for me), but after having tried a couple (Ety HF2, etc) I noticed that, while they work fine for media playback, none of them work as a handsfree solution, ie the sound of a phonecall doesn't pass through when they're connected.
Anyone tried a good pair of handsfree earphones that work?
Thanks.
headsets that work for Nokia N97 ( and similar ) would work.

I bought a nameless one off ebay, advertised for Nokia 3.5mm jacks.
yeah, the iPhone and HTC ones do not work, which surprised and annoyed me because I have 4 or 5 iPhone headsets and adaptors which I was using with my HTC BlackStone/HD.
Then I found out that the 2 sections of the pin nearest the sleeve are wired in reversed ( iPhone/HTC earphones are wired left, right, ground, mic, whereas Nokia/Samsung earphones are wired left, right, mic, ground). The ground and mic are reversed. Very annoying.
could it be this?

This sounds like a good solution, but doesn't it make the cable incredibly long so you can't use it while walking?

yup the cables are a problem. Im in the process of making a diy cable for my triplefi10. planning of making it only up to the y-junction and terminate there with a 3.5 plug so its short. Good thing about the triplefi10 is you can replace the cable. I havent received the plug connectors i ordered yet so im still waiting. I used the cable of the nokia headset that came with the adaptor for the 5310xpressmusic. I cracked the earpieces and desoldered the cable. now all i have to do is attach the plug connectors once they arrive
Could someone clarify whether this Nokia AD57 does work WITHOUT any modifactions? I assume the modifactions you made were for the earphones?
http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_...13&_nkw=nokia+ad57+&_sacat=See-All-Categories
So AD57 with standard earphones work fine?
though I did come across this whistl on eBay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GENUINE-SAMSU...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item4aa27f72c5
Sony Ericsson Headsets do work with this phone
I do have an old headset from my previous Xperia X10 which was stolen...
the headset works perfectly with samsung Galaxy S, even the mic can be used for communicating...
its a perfect match

yes i can confirm the remote adaptor works (ad57)
the nokia remote adaptors with multiple buttons for music remote doesnt work (ad54 and others with forward reverse buttons) which is a pity i think, considering that the player on the SGS is one o the best players on any device anywhere, i think. I aredy mailed samsung development about remote control support for the player and they acknowledged the suggestion
using a good A2DP capable Bluetooth Headset will give you that ability out of the box right now as i'm using it.
Yes and kill your battery twice as fast... Bluetooth sucks up power. Especially when cold like skiing.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
wired headsets doesn't work for me, it always end up dead, broken, the worst is when it breaks at the phone side,
i can care less if the headset itself breaks.
is horrible to use wired headsets in a busy subway/bus
when -skiing- skateboarding i always use my motorola HT820 it's warm, doesn't fall off, and is extremely convenient
it goes perfectly with the goggles and headband/hat
I've just ordered this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350335571399&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
I'll feedback my results once its arrived.

NOOOOO that's an absolute must have for me.
Can u send me the samsung dev info i'll do the same (do they tend to acknowledge everything or can we reasonably assume they'll think about it?)
Is it possible to develop a driver for the remotes to work?

AFAIK, the remote support is software dependent, it might be correct to state that its really a matter of adding some more lines of code to the player application to recognize double and triple presses on the mic button as it aredy recognizes single presses. Also, for those nokia music adaptors with remotes, i think they have batteries inside and if you press the forward button, they send signal pulses akin to double or triple press. As far as the volume buttons tho, i dont have any idea how it is implemented, but it may be anchored on the pulse frequency too but it must be on a system wide implementetion.
this is the samsung rep reply i got from the email below

re: Samsun Galaxy S Music Player
Hi, I just got the samsung galaxy s.
I would like to know if the player supports remote commands from the inline mic button of the headset other than play and pause.
I would like to have the usual press twice to go to next track and press thrice to go back but it seems the player does not recognize this.
Also, it would be nice to support those headsets with integrated music controller like dedicated fast forward, reverse buttons.
Thank you
I have been facing a very weird problem with my galaxy s. I had bought sennheiser cx180 earphones. They worked perfectly well for a couple of months. And then, suddenly, the sound output from one side reduced. When I connected it to my PC and other devices, the output low. I got the earphones replaced from sennheiser. But again the same problem! I thought this might be a compatibility problem between samsung and sennheiser. So, I bought a pair of creative earphones. The same problem happened with those.
Is this happening due to my phone's hardware or ROM?
Currently my phone is running android 2.3.3 XWJVB ROM and 2.6.35.7-I9000XWJVB-CL118186root-DELL102 # 2 kernel. But this problem has occured on the stock 2.2.1 ROM as well.
Please help me...
Well it could either be rom or hardware. My advice to you is just stick with the Sammy OEM headphones.
The samsung OEM earphones have a 3 ringed 3.5mm connector, while the other earphones have 2 ringed 3.5mm connectors. After a bit of googling, I have come to know that 2 ringed ones can send a surge of sound signals. Can that be the reason why the other earphones get spoilt? Will using a 2 ring to 3 ring adapter help?
I believe the extra ring is needed for the built in microphone @ samsung OEM earphones.
I don't think your i9000 damages them either why should it?
I have been using my CX300 with my galaxy s since i have it, no problems so far.
Yeah thats what... Can this be ROM problem? Is there any other possible reason for the problem?
Faulty headphone jack, but it is highly unlikely.
Possibly just unlucky with your headphones.
Is it a really noticeable difference or only slightly off?
Yes... The difference is quite noticable... At times it feels like only one side is working. In fact the sennheiser service centre guy had written on the replacement job sheet saying "right side not working"
Will shifting to a better ROM help? I am also thinking of buying a 2 ring to 3 ring adapter and trying it out, keeping my fingers crossed... i really want the sennheiser to work without getting spoilt on my phone. The earphones are amazing. The samsung OEM earphones are nowhere near those.
Hi. I have a very cool telephone handset that worked great with my iphone, but doesnt work with my galaxy s. I understand this is because the galaxy has a tv out function on the headphone socket, and that therefore the pin configuration is different. I can easily resolder the wires inside the handset to match another configuration to the pin, but cant seem to find out which segment of the (4 segment) 3.5mm pin is earth, speaker, mic.
Can anyone help?
Cheers
Peter
Hey guys.
I'm getting t699 and i know that it does not come with any headphones.
I'd like to get a pair, however i dont know which will work 100% with the t699.
What im looking for is:
- a straight jack (not 90degrees one)
- pilot with volume play/pause
- they have to be in ear headphones
- cable 1,2-1,5m
- 70$ max
- Can be wireless
I'm thinking about some stock samsung headphones since there are many compatibility issues.
Those maybe -> Samsung HS130 ?
I wanted soundmagic e10m, but those dont work with samsung ;/
Yeah I would definitely go with some from Samsung if you want everything to work properly.
The Sennheiser CX 275s works quite well. Unfortunately, I managed to lose my set and need to get a replacement...
