I have a set of Scosche iPhone mic/earbuds. The mic and earbud parts work, but no controls. (well one button works out of the three...the pause, call/hangup button)
Are there any wired/mic earbuds that will control the 3D?
Or are there any apps that will give these earbuds control?
I don't know, I haven't looked into it too much, but u do know that beats by dre headphones have the same controls, and HTC and Monster Cables have paired up to include Beats Integration.
Headset Button Control will let you map actions like skip to a double and triple tap of the play/pause button, I believe Tasker will as well... I doubt you'll find anything that will allow you to use the volume buttons.

I use the iPhone headset a lot when out and about, because I don't like the being insulated from the surrondings. The iPhone headset has volume controls as opposed to the SGS2's, that only has the play/pause button. Now, I would like to know, if it's technically possible to enable support for volume control on the iPhone headset?
I understand that one would have to alter the sec_jack.kl, which is found in system/usr/keylayout/. Something like this:
key 163 MEDIA_NEXT WAKE
key 165 MEDIA_PREVIOUS WAKE
key 226 HEADSETHOOK WAKE
key ??? VOLUME_UP WAKE
key ??? VOLUME_DOWN WAKE
However I have no clue how to find out the key mapping for the volume buttons on the remote control.
Help is much appreciated.
play/pause? take a look a the manual, i can switch tracks with my original headset.
I would HIGHLY appreciate it if this was solved. I have the Klipsch X10i headphone..amazing stuff..and the center button works, but obviously the volume buttons dont. It would be nice if it did!

You missunderstood, I know one can change tracks with the original headset. And even on the iPhone headset the middle button works. However, what does not work are the volume control buttons. And that's what I'd love to add sec_jack.kl file.
Changing the file won't work. Use logcat to check what keys are fired - no keys are fired in the Android system by the volume buttons. At all. So unlikely to get a fix using this method...

The only solutions are the apps which allow you to use the middle button for volume. Volume buttons don't work.
Still no way to make it works ?
I'll really loved to...

Still no way. Even the new Klipsch Android earbuds have only a single button...
FYI, the Klipsch app in market which is designed to be used with their headphones to allow multi tap of dingle button to add volume and other functionality works on non klipsch headphones also, and is free!!!!!!!
As I know there are some possibilities with re-soldering some resistor inside HF remote control.
For now there are no any messages in kernel log for Iphone's volume keys.
I know this is a resurrection of an old thread, but this is relevant current information...... The stock S4 earphones have a volume control, and I have tested them working on my S2.......

Is there any headphones that have volume control on them and work on our i9100. i found some klipsch headphones that are supposed to be for android but in the description on the app in the market it says that the volume control does not work for some samsung phones including the gs2.
Look in the market for headset droid. Very customizable
yeah i have that installed. i was hoping for something that has dedicated volume controls on it that work.
Hello, i have beats headphone and motorola razr
I want to know if it's possible to run the 3 buttons on my headphones with my smartphone or other mobile android?
it's a hardware or software problem?
What are the 3 buttons functions? In your title you say " 3-Buttons iphone" so I'm assuming it meant to work your I-Phone? I have Ipod headphones with a 3 button thing on it and the only thing that works is the pause/play button. The two volume buttons don't work but double pressing the play/pause will skip current song (Tested that on winamp android app).
sorry i have very bad english
i want to know if can use the 3-button of my headset ( beats by dre )with my android smartphone ( motorola razr ) ?
vol + for next track/up volume
vol - for back track/down volume
and middle button for play/pause
I believe it should work but I can check it out for you tomorrow, I don't have beats but I have a pair of 3rd party headphones with the in-line controls
I think that the buttons on the headset will not work.
Has anyone bought a pair of headphone with volume control that works on the HTC one. If it does work what is the brand and the model.
I read over in androidcentral that the HTC RC E240 volume buttons work.
i love that the phones have beats audio, but the controls for beats headphones dont work other than play pause. the volume doesnt do anything
The Samsung Galaxy S21 got rid of the phone jack from previous models and now has only a USB-C connection. I bought a USB-C-to-phonejack converter so I could use the headphones I had from my S7 phone. It works when I am using the headphones to listen to music or watch videos. By "works" I mean not only do I hear sound through them, but I can control the volume either using the phones controls or the built-in controls on the headphones. EXCEPT! Except when on a phone call. When I use the headphones when using the phone, the volume control does nothing. Neither the controls on the phone itself, or the controls on the headphones. I end up deafened because the volume is at max and can't be turned down. Again, this is only while speaking on the phone; other apps let me use the volume controls.
Any ideas on ways to fix this?
Thank you,
S.

I can't guarantee that this will work. But often what seems obvious to me is something other people miss completely. (And the other way around too.)
When you press the volume down or up rocker on the phone, have you noticed the three horizontal dots at the top of the onscreen volume indicator? If you tap on that 3-dot menu, multiple vertical volume indicators appear. I haven't tested with a USB-C audio jack dongle but I am betting that if you have the dongle plugged in (regardless of whether the earphones are plugged into the dongle), one of those vertical volume sliders will be specifically for the dongle/USB-C output.
Give this a try and let us know if this works. If it does, I realize this might be annoying to do every time. But maybe then you can find a utility in the Play store that allows you to set individual volume levels.
Good luck.
P.S. I fully understand if you prefer the wired earphones. But I can tell you that when I use bluetooth earphones of various kinds, simply pressing the volume rocker does reduce/increase phone call volume.

Thank you. I never really noticed those dots in the volume control; just ignored them all this time! I pressed them and see the extra options. I haven't tried the USB-C dongle yet... I just packed it away for a trip this week. I'll keep it in mind though and try it as soon as I unpack.
