Hello everyone, Need some advice on picking up a pair of headphones that I can use to listen to music and also make calls. Apart from the Klipsch made specifically for Android, is there anything else out on the market? I really wanted the bose but read on a few sites that they dont full function correctly. I have iPhone buds that I can listen to music but the mic does not work but work fine with my Nexus S.
I use these
amazon.com/V-MODA-Noise-Isolating-Headphone-Universal-One-Button/dp/B002XYUHFY/ref=sr_1_12?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1330051591&sr=1-12
They work great with my Note.
Thanks, I am looking for standard earbuds not those noise cancellation.
I picked up the skullcandy ones from att , they were 39.99. I know they are probably not great especially for the the price but honestly I like them alot. Decent bass to treble mix and ppl say they hear me very well when I use them.

I got some Ifrogz in ear headphones that work get at Walmart the other day. They have a Mic and a button that functions like the iphone button. I believe they were $16. The sound is pretty good I think.

they are standard buds not sure why it says noise cancellation. plus noise cancellation would be way more than 30 bucks.
Sorry i am not being clear but i am talking about the non isolator ones. I am looking for something like the standard iphone style not like the in ear ones.

I have a pair of Altec Lansing muzx I believe they are called. Woot sells them from time to time for like 5 bucks. For the price and with the mic, they are solid. Its a braided and coated cable, just wish the 3.5mm was a right angle plug and not a 90° plug that I will surely break in my pocket eventually.

$7.99 apple earphones with mic on ebay from dailysteals
I just tried my Zagg headphones and the paus/play/forward/back button works. I would recommend these headphones if you can find them for cheap, especially since they replace them if they stop working. I don't think they are worth full price.
Tried my Bose AE2 and the play/pause/forward/back button works but not the volume controls.

how do you like those? they look really gimmicky to me.
I am using the one that came with the Samsung Focus (windows phone ). It works great. The mic, volume control, pick up and end call function works too. I actually had a $40 skull candy earbud... but the volume control didn't work. I use it with double twist and when i press the on and off button it plays music using double twist. press twice quickly and it goes to the next track. press 3 times and goes reverse. i <3 OEM
Ok, here's the deal. I have some power beats phones that I used with my Galaxy S2, and the mic and center play/pause button worked great. I bought a Note and the mic doesn't work. (Damnit) So I bought the Phillips SHS8105A. Well these don't stay deep enough in the ear canal when running with any of the buds to here the bass good. So then I bought the Klipsch S4A earbuds. I ran like 10 steps and the left bud fell out, SMH. So these will not be my solution either. I would love to just use my problem free power beats, so I guess I'm wondering if the problem is software or hardware based. Works on the S2 but not the Note? Could it just be a file missing that enables it? If it didn't work on a phone from the same company it wouldn't be driving me crazy, Lol. Any opinions, help is welcome
I use dell bluetooth

You can no longer find these on the dell web page.
you have to enter sales chat and tell them that you want to buy refurbished dell BH200 DPN:WR562 Refurbished: TX131 they work Great for me and i can answer the phone with them and the battery life is about 4 days.
What i really like is the Deep base that they produce. price is around $32 with shipping.

I use MEElectronics M6-CL sport from Amazon only 20 bucks. This includes many different ear pieces for a tight comfortable fit and a case to hold everything. They sound great, and they stay in your ears when your running. I run about six miles a week no problems with the head phones.

I was just wondering if anyone has ever replaced the loud speaker in their Rezound? Mine is starting to crackle and pop and I want to replace it but I'm unsure of the quality of sound I would get. So if anyone has replaced it where did you get it from and does it sound as good as the original. Thanks in advance.

Crackle and pop at loud volumes? If so i would try messing with any EQs if you set any or if you have a rom with the xLoud mod that could probably be whats wrong.

I replaced the speaker on my HTC Incredible and it was pretty easy. Here is a website that sells the speakers and has a video on how to replace the speaker. When you take out the screws, there is a small cover over the screw so it will void your warranty when you remove the screw. You might check with Verizon first and see if they will resolve it for you under your warranty.

No, unfortunately it's at all volumes, happens on every rom I try. I tried messing with eq's and all that good stuff to no avail, that's what lead me to being curious about the speaker replacement.

I've bought replacement digitizers from there before and saw the speaker replacement which led me to my question. Was the sound quality on your Dinc good? I planned on checking with Verizon about a warranty first, but if that doesn't work I need a replacement.
Thanks for the response guys.

So this has been somewhat bothering me since pretty much day one and I have told myself it's not a big deal just me being "nit picky" but I just have to mention and ask...
My DNA is "creaky" on the front glass I clean my display endlessly and it makes a creaky (for lack of a better description or recording of the actual sound..) sound.. I also notice that when I put it down there is a noise from the camera area.. (maybe auto focus lens..)
but my main concern is the creaky sound on the front and when i grip the phone on the sides...
Does anyone else notice this?
Thats too bad to hear. Mine is solid all around.

You sure it's not the glass on the camera? If I tap above it, it sounds like a creak. I checked brand new ones and they all do it

If your phone is less than 14 days old, you may easily get it replaced at Verizon store.
I had this issue, and got a new replacement without any hassle.
You just got a phone like that. Either get it replaced or get used to it. Sorry...
I wouldn't be happy either. Doubt Verizon will swap it for that. I'd try to tell them it gets hot or doesn't hold the charge or something. They swapped my husband's Rezound cause it was hot and dying in a matter of hour when plugged in and used as GPS in the car. Tell them you have a problem like that.

well, crap... all this time I should have gone by the VZW store to check the demo units or ask here like I thought about originally... I got my phone at Best Buy and out of the return policy I could probably get the my friend at VZW to replace my phone under warranty.. it's just that in the past I have had issues CLNA phones..

My DNA its a CLN that I got as a alternate replacement and was literally flawless.

Mines been solid since I got it. And I'm very particular when it comes to creaky phones. I'd try to get a replacement.
Mine creaked bottom right, replaced it and its better though I can briefly recreate the noise if the battery flap isn't seated properly.

Same here.
Mine is solid as a rock.
This set is "the nuts"! (poker term).
Except for the fact that you can't even look at it without somehow touching the rocker volume and changing the setting.
I don't want a case on it so I just remember to handle it without actually touching it.
Or get Volume Locker app.
With case off, no creaks on mine. Then again, the instant I pulled it out of the box, I babied it in a screen protector and ballistic sg case. My Nexus 7 though, creaks like no other.
Sometimes phones can begin to show creaking after having a case on it that was too small for it. Have you recently had problems removing a case?
I have two DNA's and had to replace one due to this creaking sound. Verizon did not think it was a problem, but exchanged it anyway after I insisted the sound was bothering me.

I think ill wing it and buy another models vibrator off ebay. Thanks though.
You might get lucky and actually find an entire Rezound for parts for cheap if you look around. People get rid of these things all the time for broken screens or whatever else.

+1. Same here. Popped it out to fix screen issues one too many times and red wire is now loose.
Just found this and ordered one. Will report back whether it works. Willing to take a $7.75 (incl. shipping) chance, since most of the "as is" and/or "for parts" rezounds are desparately overpriced you-know-where. Note also, Repairs Universe does *not* carry this vibrate motor.

Nope, not yet. I did, however, secure an Evo 3D motor elsewhere and installed it today. Works just fine.
There are others still there. Here's what my search results revealed just today.
I think the units with the white connectors that match the Rezound connectors are probably fairly stock. I'm getting ready to sell the Rezound I replaced it in (bad proximity sensor; already have a replacement unit), but if I still have it when this other one arrives from overseas, I'll give it a whirl (unless I can tell from looking at it that it's the same thing), and report back.
Anything on this could help me too. It seems mine has malfunctioning vibrator too. I haven't noticed this until weekend, I had stock and not having so much calls so I can't say if it vibrates good, I flashed Cyanogenmod and notice the bug, in stock it doesn't vibrate and I'm thinking this is hardware related so your info will be valuable

Thanks for your answer hgoldner, a friend and I must buy some motors for a couple of Rezound that need one, in the link of ebay you provide in your post of May 7th seems like HD 2 vibrator fits too. We'll try and get back to this thread to let you guys know which one works for us
Sorry for the super late reply. Ended up getting a s3 and put the rezound in the draw. Just went and revived it and fixed the screen and got a vibrator motor for it from ebay. It seems like almost all htc motors work. I got an EVO 3d one and it works like a charm.

May take you up on that - my motor is almost completely dead. I see where it is when the back cover is off - is it just a matter of removing the four small screws on the red shield to get to the motor?

It's 6 screws, but yes, that's it. It's easily visible once you remove that plastic plate. Using a small flathead screw-driver you can pull the connector from the port, and the motor itself lifts easily out of the mount. Then all you do is plug in the replacement motor and slip it into position and you should be good to go.
We finally bought the replacement from etradesupply. This part seems to get easy damaged so I recommend every Rezound owner to get one replacement if he/she wants to have the Rezound for a couple of years
I gotta get a replacement also. I order one from Totobay also.
Stupid question from not a very handy guy, what screw driver do I need to open the back from the rezound?
thanks

I was able to successfully install the vibrator I got from Tatabay (took about a month to arrive from china). It fit fine but the attached cable is longer than the Rezound one which you must have to loop around. The main difference is tough that the weighted metal part that spins is actually smaller than the original and therefore the vibration it produces is more high pitched than the original. Not a huge deal but just thought I'll let you guys know that it's not exactly the same.
