Hi,
Music/youtube/movie sounds weird listening on original headset. If i use regullar headphones it sound ok. Any ideas?

Two reasons One you do not have the headset connector pushed home and Two a faulty headset .
jje
..or even if you have plugged the headset properly and the headset is OK still it will be bad, cause the given headphone is just CRAP. I just hate it.
Anyway, just use another headphone, a good one I meant.
Regards.
Tested on new phone and still not working well.
Crappy headphones this ones.
The new headphones are working on both phones

They do if you plug them into the long cable - which is where the microphone is.
i straight plug them into the phone
This was a problem on the older firmware.. But latest version has fixed it.. .435

I haven't had any problem with phones...
I had problems with the apple headphones w/mic, but the apple ones without the mic worked perfectly... it must be something to do with the mic, cause now im using skullcandy inkd (no mic) and so far Ive had no problems.

yes
the problem is with the mic on the SE headset...i connected it to my blackberry...still same problem
connected headphones to ipod via the mic..same problem...without mic no problem
so mic is the culprit
On normal headphones there are three contacts on the jack: left right and ground.
On on headsets that also have a microphone there are four: left right ground and mic.
If you have to press the button for the audio to be normal then mic and ground need to be switched. All of the SE headsets are like this by default but they suck, so we can get an extension cable and cut it and reconnect it switching ground and mic. If such a cable exists. I cant find one and scrapped a variety of adapters to make an equivalent. If you would like to give it a shot you have to switch the two contacts farthest from the tip.
All of my normal headphones work no problem, so if anyone has problems with those it's a mystery to me.
Anyways we can all thank SE for this.
its okay
i bought a MW600 and ended all my problems
working fine
I found a fix for the Titan's but it does include soldering and possibly losing the mic function but if you're not bothered about that then give this a shot!
What I did was to open up the mic module and play around by bridging certain areas together. What I found was that on 1 side of the circuit inside there is a tiny resistor/cap which when bridged brings the sound of the headphones back to normal so what I did was simply solder over the cap/resistor which then brought my headphones back to life!
The reason that people have problems with these headphones is because they are set up for Apple devices and because of this 2 wires are switched around, mic and ground I believe! So, If you go out specifically to buy any of these type of headphones then make sure that they're not Apple specific and that they are universal otherwise you'll come across the above problem.
This quick fix may work for other Skullcandy headphones that are designed for Apple products but i can't guarantee it as I only have the Titan's!
Hope this helps some of you out and saves you a few penny's in the long run!
My wife just picked up a new Galaxy Note on AT&T. We quickly discovered that when something is plugged into the headphone jack the phone mic is automatically muted. After discussing with Samsung regarding this they in fact have confirmed that because the device comes with headphones that have an inline mic the phone auto mutes when something is in the headphone jack.
So unlike our iPhone 4s when we are plugged into her cars AUX input for the purposes of listening to music we have to UNPLUG in order to take a call. Not mention if we have headphones in that don't have an inline mic we have to unplug the headphones to talk.
This seems EXTREMELY stupid to me. Is it at all possible to disable the auto mute. Samsung says no. I was told this is the place to go for a definitive answer.
its not being muted... its just in headphone mode thats the issue and idk why samsung does this its stupid. htc's handsets dont do this ither
Is there a way to make it NOT do that???
I know exactly the feature you are referring to. You might look for an app in the market, I don't know but I think the short answer is it needs to be built into the kernel. This probably won't happen until source for ICS is released and then a dev will include it in a build. Search the market for an app and tell us if you find something.

i dont think its a software issue i think its how it is actually wired inside the device. this also happened on the nexus s but not the first nexus by htc
That's weird, I was having Bluetooth connection problems and was using my aux port to stream Pandora and my phone range and I took the call and had it still hooked to my aux port and they could here me fine.
My Bluetooth was off this last time but I have done it a.couple times that I remember.
I'll try tomorrow again

AT&T Model = has EARPHONES with in-line pic ????
I got mine 3 weeks ago - new one , and the BOX was opened in frount of me @ ATT STORE ............... didnt have ANY EARPHONE!!!
So when I called the 800 Number > got told the same thing ( as whats on Website) .......... NO EARPHONE !!!
So I am using the earphone from my older INFUSE < works fine with inlinemic and NOPE dont get mute thingie) I have also tested with ZAGG BUDS; DR ONES - msot expensive ones - NONE OF THEM DO that 'mute' thingie - atlreast not on my NOTE (( rooted , unlocked and back to stock att though at the moment - ready for trade to s3))
So I suspect that the Earpiece here is not the correct one for phone
Mine came with beats earphones

Mine doesn't mute the mic when headphones or my car's aux cable is plugged in either. And headphones were removed from the AT&T release.
I talk on my phone in my car while aux cable plugged in all the time. I don't have mute problem at all. Not only aux cable but I use my Bose headphones without inline Mic and they work fine too.

Hello all,
I have the following issue on a GT-I9300, stock rom, not rooted on Orange Romania carrier:
listening to music on wired headphones Sennheiser ie8i, everything is ok, then when receiving a call I hear the caller for one second then the headphone icon disappears and the conversation is switched to phone and all I can do is to get the headphones out and put them back to have the conversation in my heaphones & headphones microphone.
Should I mention this heaphones have the standard iphone remote on wire and work flawlessly on my other phone (HTC One X).
I've tried to search the forum but didn't found anything similar, so bear with me please. Thank you!
Did you make sure the headphone is fully inserted into the headphone jack? Mine works perfectly after I pushrd it still the way in
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Yep, pushed all the way it goes... Needless to say that music I listen to its clean and powerful stereo. When call starts, I hear a second of the conversation, then headphone icon disappears form status bar and conversation is switched to phone. Even after that, if I push play again, the music starts in the phone speakers. I have to pull the headphones and insert again in order to work.
Its kind of disappointing, because I am more like a HTC guy and switched to S3 for the very reason of superior audio quality.

Hello,
I have the same problem (not evern hear the caller for sec) with my Sennheiser mm30i and Klipsch s4i, which both work fine on HTC desire and S2.
Kind regards,
Ron
it seems that for what it worth HTC android phones are more compatible with iphone type headphones than Samsung. I still hope that this is merely a software problem and some developer will look into it. I use now latest Omega (34).
Hey,
So I got a new pair of headphones today (Shure Se215's) and I have a major issue with them connecting to my Galaxy sII.
The headphones work perfectly in other devices and I have never had any trouble with other headphones in my own phone.
However with these new headphones the jack seems dodgy. It only gives full sound (not switching between mono and stereo, just tinny as ****) when on the right angle. So right now I cant use them together without constantly holding the cable in the right position.
One similar thing which I have noticed is that connecting an AUX cable has always been dodgy too. The phone will not pick up that it is plugged into an aux cable (Car or home stereos) until I wiggle and jam it in and even then it takes a few seconds if it works at all.
Any help would be great! I have done a lot of searching on here and around the web and haven't found any issues quite the same as mine.
I'm not scared to open up the phone and play with hardware if people think it is necessary.
Cheers
Dodgy audio jack, what more is there to say?
Fix under warranty or take to phone shop.

Buy a new part online and do it yourself. I did it for mine when the vibrating module died, it was ridiculously easy and I'd never done anything like that before.

Anyone else noticing how poor the max volume level is on this phone? I like my music loud in my eyes with headphones and I just can't push it with this phone. Anyone have any fixes to this or use any apps?
Here's a great solution if you like loud music.
FIIO E06 Portable Amplifier
About $25 from Amazon

Or use PowerAmp with custom eq preset.

PowerAmp provides a small boost, which makes the puny LG headset just loud enough. Sennheiser speakers generally seem to be louder, though most of them have 32ohms impedance, 16ohms should be louder, theoretically. I like oldskool headphones without silicone plugs, i don´t think the new ones will last one decade like my Sennheiser MX550. I just bough MX400 MS for less than 10 Euros, looking cheaper than the MX550s, they provide the same sound quality and volume.
The LGs headset plug is Apple compatible, without an adapter to switch mic & GND connectors, Samsung and Sony stuff won´t work. Nokia´s needs the adapter to play music w/o distortion, but control buttons will never work.
