Inline headphone audio control/mic adapter?

Does anyone know of a headphone adapter with audio controls and and a mic? I'm think of something similar to the mini-USB to 3.5mm adapter than came with the G1, but obviously with a 3.5mm connector for the phone.
I like the controls on the bundled headphones but the audio quality and noise isolation is terrible. I want to be able to use my Sennheisers but still pause and skip songs. I'm sure I could splice the bundled control module into my headphones but I'd rather not hack up an expensive set.
Alternately, does anyone know of a software solution to map one of the buttons to perform pause/skip functions? Having to unlock the phone to pause and skip or use a fugly lock screen replacement is not ideal.
i would like to know this as well
I've got two sets that I really like. Skull Candy FMJ are my favorite. Great sound isolation. Kinda spendy, but well worth it. A lower cost and nearly as good option is a Best Buy brand vmoda headset. Sound isolation with inline mic witha button which is basically a start/pause button for the audio. It works great for what I use it for.
Hmm. I'd prefer just a simple adapter so I can keep using my Sennheiser CX 300-II's (especially since I just replaced them this summer after leaving my old set on an airplane). Do you have the v-modas? I don't want them, but I want to make sure that iPod controls also work on the G2. If so I may check out the Etymotic mc3 or hf3.
Look at radio shack for what you are looking for. I'm pretty sure I saw something to what you are looking for. Here it is...

I have the v-moda vibe duo, the jaybird freedom, and zagg smartbuds. All three work great. Zagg has the coolest feature of any headphones I've had with the way they designed them and are my go to. V-moda has the best bass of the three and jaybirds are perfect for working out it. All three mic and controls work.

Ouch! $40 for a simple mic and control button adapter? I may just start cutting and splicing cheap headsets to see if that works.

i have sony ericsson mw-600 stereo bluetooth adapter/headset if you want a more wireless option. it has OLED display and controls on the mic clip, and stereo adapter to plug in your own headphones/ear buds if you dont like the stock ones.

Mic on earphones that does not work with Triumph

Hello,
I am currently using Scosche idr655m earphones. It has microphones built-in. I used it with my Intercept before and it worked great. Recently, I just bought the Triumph and found that while a mic other pair of generic earphones works, this one does not. it will work as a normal earphone but the mic wont pick up anything. If there is a fix, please let me know. Otherwise, let me warn you that it wont work so you dont have to waste quite a bit of money on it.
Cheers,

Just picked up the V-Moda Bass Freq Metal Vocal Earbuds from radioshack!
$50 bucks. Frequency Response 8-22,000hz Noise Isolating. microphone inline with mute button. They sound better than most of the popular $150+ headphones. GREAT DEAL
my skull candies work flawlessly on my triumph. call volume is great and the mic picks up very well.
Just grab an inline mic for 3 bucks on ebay and use whatever earpiece you want

Headset

I have noticed for iPhones that if you have a pair of apple earbuds you can use that to hear the caller and move the phone to your mouth as a microphone.
I was wondering if something like that can be done with the SGS4G. I want to be able to use any pair of headphones to listen to the caller, and use the phones mic.
I have seen headsets on ebay/dealextreme, but they are just fixed earbuds and I am not too confident that they have good sound quality. I have had previous phones where you plug your own headphones into a headset jack which then goes to the phone, but I haven't seen anything like that for the SGS4G.
The headphones that came with the phone have the mic

Yeah you can use any pair of headphones(without a Mic) and the phone will automatically use the internal microphone. I do that all the time with the auxiliary input in the car or with my phiaton ms400 headphones

Try Skullcandy Ink'd Mic'd. Not the best looking, but it's great for <$20. Not to mention you get warranty for it once you register it. I'm getting them soon as a backup for my OEM Samsung headset.

I prefer to use my own pair since:
1) I get ear infections with in-ear earphones. So I must use clip/over-the-ear headphones.
2) My headphones have active noise-cancellation and I would prefer to use those with my phone especially on loud bus rides.
3) I bought my phone used, so all I got as accessories were 2x batteries and a charger.

Oh ok. Then yes any headphone that fits in your phones headphone jack should work and you can use the phones mic.
But if you wanted to have the mic on the wire you can try the Sennheiser PX 200-IIi. It has the outer headphones that you like.
Or you can go with ones without the mic like Beats by Dre or Skullcandy.

I9505 Volume control and mic compatible Headphones?

Hi All,
The mic appears to have blown on the standard Sammy headphones and was just wondering if there are any half decent headphones that are compatible? Looking to spend around £50
Thanks.

Don't go cheap on headphones for the V10 it won't like it. It wants to show you its full potential with quality headphones.
