The mic/remote button on my Dell Streak headphones doesn't do anything with the Note . Does anyone have a set that works with it? And what does the mic/remote button do during calls (the Streak used to mute the microphone).
havent tried calling with the dell headsets.. but the button does pause and unpause the music player.
Klipsch s4a are made for android devices. Feel kinda flimsy but are really good

Really? which player were you using? I can't get the button to work on either Google Music or the "Music Player App."
Oddly enough the iphone ones work

I'm an idiot, the case was preventing the phones from plugging all the way.
The single-button headphones that came with my iPhone 3G work great. The 3Gs ones with the three buttons don't mic.
Tested these at the store and they seem to work well: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003OE30KQ (tested using mortplayer, the only player i use)
I use the Sony Ericsson Hi-Fi Bluetooth Stereo Headset with FM Radio. I'm not able to post links yet but I got it on Amazon.
I don't like regular bluetooth head sets that hang on your ear but its a pain for me when the headphones are attached to the phone. This is the best of both worlds for me. You clip it on your shirt, collar, or where ever and put the ear-buds in.
I got my husband the black one first then I got the white one for myself.
You can sync it with 3 different devices at a time. It's really great if you like to sleep and listen to music as your phone is in a safe spot.
thanks for posting this, i am wondering the same thing.

They work well in calls and even better with music, I've paused from the button and answered a call or 2 already using the button.
They have very good bass and if you put the correct tips on and pump up your volume you can feel the bass INSIDE YOU HEAD! Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but I like em, even with their funky shape and $30 tag price I'd probably buy em again.
Oh and I'm only exaggerating a little, install an EQ app and change it to rock and rock out!

Hi there,
Can someone recommend my a good BT stereo headset to use with my TP2?
Ideally I'd like one where I can use my own headphones and have control over the media player.
Nice to haves would be Caller ID and /or track information display.
Thanks,
Richard

It works great! But again... Audio-Booster is not working with this bluetooth headset...
And "volume control" is not working op the TP2... you can however control on the headset... [email protected] gives a notification of this also when connecting to the backbeat.
Oh! and by the way! you can multi-pair this headset to more than one device. What I have done: pair the stereo part to my TP2 and the phone part to my Ipaq914c for calling (business). When a cal comes in the music pauses and you can call and when he call is ended the music starts playing... NICE!

Hi GillBostonian,
Thanks for the link.
The product is actually really good. I dont get the "it's hurting my ears" , "it's matt black" etc.
The JB-200 is an awsome product and is geared towards extreme sports people and at the gym.
Love it, however my taste in music requires BASS, and this is something it does not have, therefore I gave them away .
There was bass but not enough for my likeing.
I will be getting the Jabra Halo and see how they work and will report back
hi all,
i've just paired a sony DR-BT20NX wireless headset to my tp2 and i must say i'm quite please with the results.
When paired, the device does say that it will not support volume control, which it doesn't but it has it's own volume control which you can easily use to adjust the volume to your needs.
Also, when music is playing and you receive a call, it mutes the music and rings! you can then pick up, talk and hang up; the music resume as soon as the call is disconnected.
You also get the remote control features to fully work with it e.g play stop ff rev etc.
The quality of sound, especially bass, is pretty impressive i must say.
Anybody else who'se used it?
So far, I must say I'm quite happy with it - though only down side, it's slightly pricey? it's around for £55-70
Comments/suggestions welcome.

Yes, +1. I have the original S9 and the the new S9-HD and they are great, I use them all the time.
Look on Ebay and you can find the original S9's for $35 new delivered!! The only big difference between the the new and old version is while in a call, the old S9 only plays the call in to the left ear. The HD plays it back in both. Pretty much the same other than that.

Does anyone know of an inline headphone adapter that has remote controls and I can plug my own earphones into? I'm talking about something like this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-Headphone-Adaptor-Control-Shuffle/dp/B002J1SCRQ
I heard iphone adapters like above kinda works for Mortplayer and Mixzing (one click pause, two click skip forward but not volume etc.) Anyone tried these or a better solution? I don't want to use the stock ones nor cut and solder a female jack. Thanks
I have one of those, I use it with my old 2nd gen iPod touch when I run... To be honest I've never tried it with my phone but I can test it tonight if you want, just lemme know what app you'd like me to test with. Personally I'm partial to Headset Button Controller since you can pair it up with any music app or even Tasker for other tasks... I still use HTC's stock player most of the time (unless I'm playing Pandora or stuff from my Amazon cloud), the lock screen controls are the most seamlessly integrated imo.
I can almost guarantee the volume buttons won't work for any function tho. I also have a Philips adapter that they used to sell at Target, it's like 3 ft long with the single button, microphone and 3.5mm jack both at the end of the cable... Used to be like $10, haven't seen it in a while tho.
Rather than spend $10+ on a cable tho, I'd recommend just gettin a solid set of IEMs from someone like Meelectronics with the mic/button integrated and positioned at a proper height in the cable. I bought my M9P for like $20 with a discount and according to many on Head-Fi they rival some of the $50 IEMs... They definitely sound better than my old Senheisser CX300 (paid like $60 for those but that was years ago when there were next to no budget IEMs).
You know, unless you have a very specific need for the adapter or you already have a high end pair of headphones.

I wonder how the Android version of the S4 will handle volume control in conjunction with their app... Could make it worth the price, generally they're nice but not quite worth $100 from what I've read (again, Head Fi's a great place for headphone comparison etc).
I have a Acoustic Research Bluetooth adaptor that turns any headphones/speakers into wireless Bluetooth headphone/speakers. It has controls on it for skipping tracks and volume. It works perfect and I love it!!

i got the klipsch promedias which are basically the same, and the control definitely works but both the music and the phone app try to handle the events. so double-clicking it skips to the next song and at the same time redials the last number. it works well for pause/resume though.

Pretty sure that is your rom you're using.. they haven't properly switched the remote to only work when in a call state or some such. Remote shouldn't do anything but control the music app unless the phone is ringing or you're already using it.

Would you be able to test it with stock Sense music player? I'm wondering if it would make pause and skip next tracks.
My M9P's button didn't work with the stock player on the EVO 4G, which is why I started using Headset Button Controller (which solves the issue and allows me to keep using the stock player), I've yet to try it on the 3D tho. I'll try it tonight with the headphones and both the adapters I mentioned. It might surprise me, I noticed the 3D cuts volume to 50% automatically when you plug in headphones, that's something the 4G definitely didn't do!
Alright, sorry about that, I fell asleep last night prior to testing this. I tested the short 2-3" Belkin iPod adapter that was linked before, as well as the longer Philips adapter with a mic that I mentioned, and my own Meelectronics headphones with in-line mic/button. They all worked exactly the same despite the fact that the first one doesn't have a microphone, the electric signal they all send thru the third marking on the 3.5mm jack is the same after all.
On a stock EVO 3D, one press of the button on any of them will start the music player (with the phone locked or oherwise), and a second press will obviously pause it. A double click or press will dial your last dialed number, and pressing and holding will invoke voice search just like long pressing the search button. Pressing the button while the phone rings answers the call as expected and pressing it again hangs up. There's no triple press functionality and the volume buttons on the Belkin thing did nothing at all.
With Headset Button Controller installed you can change any of that behavior, and assign functions to triple press, amongst a lot of other things... And it integrates just fine with the stock player, so if you want more control over your button functions, it's probably worth the $2.60-ish. If anyone wants it tested with any other app just lemme know, tho HBC probably covers the expanded needs of most even if your particular player doesn't.
HBC also has support for what it calls left and right buttons but these definitely don't correspond with the volume buttons on a standard iPod adapter, not sure what headsets have 3 buttons which HBC might recognize... That Kplisch set mentioned before might be one.
I have the Klipsch S5i & only the play & pause works, double tap radials the last call & the volume buttons are unsupported.

Dont discount the Bluetooth stereo headsets,
Did anyone ever answer the OP's actual question? I need an adapter for my own headphones with a pause/play button that will work on an LG Optimus. I do NOT want a Bluetooth option and I do NOT want recommendations for headphones. I have a set of headphones that I love, but they don't have a pause/play button. I'm also not willing to cut and splice/solder. I don't need volume or skip track buttons. I just need to be able to quickly pause the audiobook I'm listening to without unlocking my phone.
All I can find is adapters for iphones and ipods, but I need one for my android phone.
Anyone know of a good place to pick up a good Stereo bluetooth headset?

Newegg. I got the Motorola ##9 in the ear for like 45.00 regularly 100.00. I also got one at Best Buy, it is made by Rocketfish for about 50.00. The Rocketfish is an on top of the ear, and I like it as well as the Motorola. These both have a hidden mic, and have great sound quality(I am not an audiophile)so that is my opinion. Motorola's are not as comfortable as the RF's, but they they are more concealed.

It makes it much easier to control your phone while you're excercising for example without the cord connected to it.
At the same time the module itself also has buttons to control music and access voice commands.
Another thing is that the module also has a mic built in to work with headphones that don't.
Another +1 on the Sony MW600!

BH-503 Designer's Bluetooth Stereo Handsfree Headset (13-Hour Talk/240-Hour Standby)
Works like a charm with my S2.
I picked up one of the Sony WM600 headsets this weekend. It was on sale at the local AT&T store and with my FAN discount and taxes, the price came to less than $42.
Today is the first full day of use, but I've been using it to stream music and podcasts and one 15 minute phone call all morning long. About 4 hours on it so far and the battery meter hasn't budged. Range is decent - I've wondered off about 20 feet with no loss of audio. Radio works better than I thought at pulling in relatively weak signals.
One complaint - the call/hangup button is positioned in such a way that when you grab it to release the clip (like you would to re-position it) you end up pressing the button.
One oddity - when you press the call/hangup button, it seems to sometimes loose it's connection to the music stream and can take a few on/off bluetooth toggles to get it to reconnect.
So far I really like it. The display is nice and passes on caller ID information. It's very small and from what I can tell so far, the battery life will be decent.
has anyone got one of these? I was looking into getting a headset or headphones that operate like the apple headphones with the mic whilst someone calls or acting a means of listening to music. See this, looks cold, but not sure you can use it to speak to someone whilst the phone is in your pocket.

That's how all headsets with a mic work, ever since they first came out in the old days. "that operate like the apple headphones" makes it sound like Apple invented this, which they did not. They were about 10 years late to the party.
I find the bluetooth headsets are great, like the MW600. Great sound, no wire dangling into your pocket, works great for calls.
I got these with my phone for free, Its not he livesound ones though its just smart headset and the first time i used it compared to my 30 quid soundmagics it was ok, but once you let it burn in like all other headphones it improves dramatically, and the sound quality and bass improved and found its nearly as good as my 30 quid soundmagics.
Just discovered that my Bose MIE2i headset microphone doesn't work with LGOG.
Works with Nokia WinPhone, and Samsung buds work with LGOG (but not well).
The Bose MIE2 works.
In-store testing shows Bowers & Wilkins products won't.
Share what you find about various wired headsets.
Since the LGOG ships without one, and LG doesn't seem to offer any,
it's something most folks will be looking for I suspect.

When using the earbuds that come with the iPhone 4 (which I used with one of the iPod shuffles and an iPhone 4S with no problems) on the LGOG, the volume doesn't work at all. The play/pause button is funky. I was listening to a podcast using the Onecast app on my LGOG, hit the play/pause button on my iPhone 4 earbuds, and it started playing a different podcast. When I try to pause that podcast, it then goes back to the podcast I was listening to before. So yeah...totally unusable.
Controls aside, the iPhone 4 earbuds are compatible with the LGOG.

except that the mic doesnt work either.
Yeah the Apple earpods mic doesn't work. Also, volume controls on Apple headphones won't work an any android device. It needs hardware support that I'm guessing Apple has patented. I think the issue is with the audio jack because if I push the earpods down enough before the click in the mic works. I bet the contact point inside the jack are smaller or misplaced so some headphone will work, while others won't.
I was just given the skullcandy titans with mic, and they work with the phone.
One tap answers the phone, and the mic works correctly.
The media control also works. One button tap will play/pause, 2 taps next track, and 3 taps previous track.
I thought I'd let everyone know that the ZAGG Audio ZR-Six Earbuds with Mic Black/Silver work with the LGOG. I just received them today and confirmed the Mic works. The headphones have great sound too! Needless to say I'm very happy to have headphones with a Mic that work.
