I don't know if I'm missing something.... but I miss being able to skip forward/backward using my headset buttons and I can't get it to work in the apps I use (Podcast Addict and Rocket Player Premium). Anyone know what's up? I've tried toggling the Huawei Smart Headset setting and still doesn't work either way.
I can totally do that with my Sony headset on Spotify and the default music player.

Try different music players, if it still doesn't work either its your headphones or it's a software issue
Another thing to try: on my Honor 8 using Honor headphones I skip forward by double pressing the play/pause buttons, and I go back by triple pressing. It took me a long time to figure that out, getting so used to using the volume up/down buttons to go forward/back. May not apply to you, but it popped into my head when I saw your question.
Thanks, peeps. Never thought about it being the earphones (duh...). Too bad it's so hard to find good quality earphones with a microphone and volume buttons.

Nice! That def worked in Rocket Player, too. Double clicking works in Podcast Addict, but it doesn't respond to triple-clicking. It skips forward and then pauses as it understands it as two different commands . Man, that makes music a lot better. Thanks again.

Hi everyone, does the omnia 7 headset have a controller integrated to adjust volume and fast forward or backward music?
If not are there other headsets that are compatible and can do that?
It can adjust volume but no music control unfortunately...
Thats not really true.
You have three buttons:
"-","+" (for volume) and a third one.
One click on this button will pause/unpause
Two clicks will skip 1 track forward (back is not an option)
If the music is paused you can click and hold to start a voice action to call someone.
"If the music is paused you can click and hold to start a voice action to call someone."
Thanks ! I will try this but it sounds strange... I would like to "voice action" without having first my music playing... Anyway thanks for the tips because I was wondering how to use voice action with my headset

No thats not what I meant
If there is no music on and you tap and hold then you can make a voice action to call someone.
Sorry for explaining it so unclear
that's so awesome, thanks
i will use the headset now
but i find that you don't have to pause the music..if you hold it down, it will pause for you and resume after!

three click replays the current track from the beginning. shame, i was hoping it would take me to the previous track.
normal behaviour on all player. 3 click mean previous button. do it once and it takes you to the beginning of the track. do it again and it takes you to previous track
Three clicks takes you to beginning of current track, 3 clicks again (reasonably quickly - like within the first 5 secs of a track) takes you to previous.
Dammit - this came up twice - see below

Not quite. 3 Clicks with a track like half way through takes you to beginning of that track. Three clicks within first 5 secs of a song takes to previous track (so you just 3 clicks to beginning then 3 clicks to previous.
so lets say, just like the iphone..thats awesome! will buy a new headphone then. used to listen to music on iphone with beats studio, but that thing is just ****
anyone know of a good inline remote that works with the phone apart from the on with the headpohnes that come with it? I have jabra clipper that works very well but i have to keep rembering to charge it so a inline remote would be good anyone know of one that wokrs
I'm using the Headset that was shipped with the HTC 7 Trophy as i lost my original headset and could not find any other headset with all the functions working.
"RC E160" is the HTC Part number.
Thanks im really after one that lets me use my own headphones like my jabra clipper. Problem with that is the battery in it only last 5 hours
I was so happy after I found out the RC can switch tracks, but the heaphones are so crappy on Omnia 7 that I would just use them for emergency ... no mid range frequencies at all!
these samsung headphones are a rip off! its been like 3 months and guess what? one speaker has stopped working and now the other is breaking up..jeez. I cant believe these manufacturers, they expect us to pay like £20+ on a new headphone, with its weak, flimsy thread like wire..no wonder they screw up. They need to give it a thicker double wiring.
Amy recommendations on a headphone ?
using blackbeat from alteclansing (bluetooth a2dp)

I use a Jabra BT620s, works great if you're into music (its a little bulky for just phone calls ) Works via Bluetooth (A2DP)
Edit: doh, just realized that by now the 620s is an older model, not sure if it's still for sale :-(
Hello,
When listening to music -
Does this phone support the wired headset button on newer earbud/headsets to pause and FF to the next song?
thanks in advance
Kevin
I'm using the headset from my Nexus One and it has the play, forward and back buttons and it works great. I like it because I can plug them in and hit play without ever waking the phone

I didn't know Android phones could work with headsets like that. Is it a particular headset or will an iPod compatible headset that has the track & volume controls work? If it's a particular headset, would you give me the MFR & model?

i'm interested in this as well. i have the pair from my nexus, but much prefer apple ones.
Thanks for the response.
I use these earbuds on my captivate -
JBuds J3M Micro Atomic In-Ear Earphones with Microphone (look on amazon or other places to buy...)
They sound great and allow me to stop/ff songs on my captivate with the PowerAmp music player.
Other music players work a little differently but still support pause/FF songs from the switch on the wire, which is a huge benefit and time saver.
good luck
Kevin
These are the same ones they gave me when I bought my Nexus One... they work really well for me!

Im using my Samsung headphones from my Windows phone I traded,
and I all I am able to use is the headphone button underneath the volume control which allows me to make a call to the last entry when I double click it, and when i hold it, it brings up the voice dialer. I swear the other day, I was able to go to the next and previous songs when i hit the volume controls up or down. But now that doesn't seem to be working. The volume buttons never seemed to work with the phone, so I guess its just depends what headphones you have.
So I have the Beats tour w/ Control talk. Whenever I plug it in my skyrocket it always lowers the volume to 0 gradually. Does anyone with beats headphones experiencing the same thing?
One more thing, on all my iPhones, I was able to skip songs by double tapping the mic key on the headphones. This doesn't work with the included headset & my beats. Only plays/pauses. Is that normal?
Control talk only works with iOS products. It will play/pause on android, but that's it. I have beats solo HD and have not experienced the volume issue. The audio output from our phone isn't great to begin with, so I have the Equalizer app, which does a nice job of making the audio sound better.

That sucks. What headphones have the same functionality as the iPhone headphones on android devices?
If you use the music playerpro music player it had the ability to change settings to allow play/pause skip forward/skip back with the control talk controller (I use the solo hd's), also is has a downloadable dsp pack that makes the eq function in the player superb there is a 5 or 7 day trial in the app store give it a shot set it up. I personally don't see using another music player since finding it,I delete all the players now in roms. Hope it works for you

Playerpro is pretty darn good. Thanks a lot man!
I was looking all over for this info for my beats...thanks!
Such a shame that you cant use the control on the mic to skip, rewind songs. Having to take out the phone after every other song is a HUGE hassle especially when you're on the move. Glad I kept my regular iPod, I definitely miss this feature on my iPhone 4.

You can skip, play, go back, pause all from the mic if you use player pro you just set it up within the player options, also has option to use volume buttons to skip forward and backwards

There's an app called "headset Button Controller" out there that you could try, see if that helps. Not sure the volume up/down can be considered as "buttons" with this app though, if so then it should work. You should be able to configure the app so a long press on button 1 for example increases the volume (if button 1 can = volume up or down button on the control talk clicker...).
You can try it for free - I would post a link but I'm new so I'm not allowed...
And Im gathering as much info as I can into one centralized area. If you have experienced something that isn't already on the list, please feel fee to chime in here or on reddit . I'll be copying and pasting links from here to the report as well. I was gonna submit tomorrow but since I'm late to the party here, I'll send it Thursday evening. Thanks a lot everyone!

I find the keyboard misses a few vibrations on tapping letters, around 2 out of 10 taps.
Casting a movie to my TV stalls and stutters after about 10 minutes every time I try to watch a movie.

That shouldn't matter with the phone. I find that odd. Casting is nothing more than a web browser, more or less. The phone sends a URL to the Chromecast, then the Chromecast plays that URL and the phone is completely disconnected from what happens next other than the playback controls. Phone isn't playing anything, isn't transmitting data, etc. unless you're mirroring your screen or the app is actually streaming from the phone. I'd try a different app, use a speed test app on the chromecast, and do some other troubleshooting there.
Okay thanks. Will try a different app.

My Bose QC25 headphones seem to be incompatible with the USB-C/3.5mm adapter.
It seems like the volume down button is constantly being held down. As soon as I plug it in, ringer volume goes to vibrate.
In-line mic does not work.
Any in-line button press seems to reduce ringer volume and occasionally calls up google assistant.

I am using the Android cable. They work fine on other phones with 3.5mm jack.
However, on my previous Zenfone3 with USB-C, I used the Essential adapter and get the same results. It has to do with the adapter.
This will be going out to essential today at around 7pm pst so if there's anything I missed or anything you all wanna add, do yo thang
I have a problem with Bluetooth audio streaming to my car. I cannot rewind or fast forward. If I try to switch to the next/prior track the sound goes away, but it looks like my Google play music app is still playing. If I re-pair or switch inputs and go back to streaming, the audio plays again.
I can't replicate this problem with either my Google pixel or my wife's iPhone.

I have this issue as well, Also, what you said about the changing tracks, that happens to me as soon as a song ends, and not just with google play music, but with amazon music as well. And while my LG V10 and Moto G4 will send track names and album art to my radio, the PH-1 does not.
Sorry for the late response but everything has been added to the bug report and sent off to Essential. They got back to me with a response, "The whole Essential team monitors /r/Essential pretty religiously, and I know the SW team is looking at the thread.

Fingerprint reader gone to sleep

Hi guys. I exchanged my Essential Phone yesterday (hardware defect) and now on my second device I still get this random fingerprint reader bug. Once in a while I take my phone out of my pocket and the fingerprint reader doesn't work. I have to press the power button to wake it up.

Fingerprint sensor
I have used all 5 instances of the fingerprint scanner for the same finger in multiple positions while holding the phone. Works fine once or twice but then all of a sudden won't recognize my fingerprint, have to use the pattern to unlock and even then I usually have to reboot the phone in order for the sensor to recognize my fingerprint and after a few times it goes back to not recognizing the fingerprint again. Essential phone ph-1
And yes I have cleaned my hands and fingers and cleaned the sensor multiple times with no change to effectiveness.

This isn't an Essential issue, this a Google dialer issue.
I know it's a long shot, but has anyone figured out how to stop the Note 10 volume from jumping to full volume every time a video starts play when you have Airpods connected? It happens with any video YouTube, Netflix Etc.
It's seems to only happen with Airpods as I don't see it happening with the any plug in headphones or ear buds.
I'm open to suggestions on things to try to solve it. Thx

Maybe your handset is punishing you for using Apple product?!
When you connect AirPods to your phone. Go to Bluetooth settings page, then tap advanced. There options such as media volume sync...see if it will do anything
