Beats?

Hi,
I have beats by dre and the buttons that came with the wired are similar to the Samsung headphones. What I mean by that is that they both feature volume up and down and the button for switching tracks and answering calls.
However, my problem is that the button in the middle for switching tracks etc works but the volume up and down don't?
Is there a solution for this?

Yeah.... Just burst it open and switch the small cables until it works then screw it back together again. OR you could cut the wire on both samsung earpiece and beats, just switch them around so you got samsung buttons with beats headphones attached, simple!

It's not a problem exclusive to beats though, i think many 3 button headphones have trouble working with android devices. Maybe if you'd care to share a pair that work without problems, the OP would consider them if the issue is bugging him that much, telling him to 'buy proper headphones' doesnt really help him.
I have beats also and the volume up and down buttons dont work, but it's not a major issue for me. I downloaded
Headset Button Controller from the google play store, it allows you to control everything using just the single button (double tap skips to next track, triple tap goes to previous track etc) works well..
Buy Samsung Hs6000 Headphones. There are awesome!

My cousin bought those, the sound quality is extremely poor.
Flat and tinny, bass is non existent.
For that kind of money you could get high quality headphones.
I got sennheiser HD 202's for around 30 euro.

Yeah I have sennheiser cx300 ear buds. £14:100%. Mate compared them to similar beats earbuds. Suffice to say the beats owner wasn't happy with the results

I have those too! I use them for when I'm out and about and the hd202's for around the house.
I think they are great quality and very reasonably priced!
When you buy beats 99% of the price is for the logo.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I've got the Pro's and they're really good! Not saying that for the same price you don't get way better one's, but they are really good for trance music. I would have got something else instead, but they were a gift.
Got the same problem with the 3 button cable. Also the mic is not working properly, making funny issues.
I just use the simple cable with no button.
I have been looking for a adaptor from iphone made headphones to others, but none that work for the s3...

Yeah they're good for the price. Its pretty hard to distort them. I think if you Mix poweramp, full bass and any Hybrid track though, you're in trouble. But they do me.
Bit gutted, got up on the bus, caught the chord on the seat and ripped the left out of my ear. Must have strained the connection as the left is only 75% volume compared to the right
Beats is a marketing gimmick
thanks

sixaxis controller help

Anybody get. Sixaxis. App to work on there DNA? I have searched all over from what I understand HTC phone due to the required bluetooth protocol will not work. But I also read. That a custom rom could fix this problem anybody know if any of the newly released DNA roms help this apply work. Thank you for any help
I believe its not compatible with sense. They're probably talking about AOSP roms. That's what I understand from my time in the Rezound forum

The app won't work with sense but the controller should work with a wired connection with games that have native support.....at least it better cuz I just ordered a gameklip

Help! Bluetooth Devices Don't Show Up!

Every time I try to pair my Galaxy Note 2 with my bluetooth speaker, it fails. The speaker never even shows up on the scanned devices list even though it works fine on my PC and Nexus 7. How do I fix this?
Have you tried to pair your nexus with note? What is the result?
Try to unpair your nexus from speaker and then try your note.

I can pair my Nexus with my Note but I'm not sure what that does. I've made sure nothing else is paired with the speaker but the Note 2 is the only device that can't recognize it.

Note 2 USB Audio with External DAC

I'm trying to use a Fiio E17 USB DAC/Headphone Amp with my Note 2. It does not work with the stock ROM or CM10.2. It does work using USB Recorder Pro but I'd love to have it work natively. Do any of the Note 2 ROMs have native USB audio working?
Did you enable it in settings?
Settings> Accessories check box to use external speakers.
USB audio works great with my car dock on Jellybeans ROM v22 and on stock.
Still not working on any of the 4.3 ROMs yet though.

I'm getting closer Got the dock to be recognized and it tries to route audio. Now instead of playing through phone speaker it just doesn't play at all. Baby steps.

I'm running a 10.2 nightly (4.3) and I don't have a Settings>Accessories check box.
Unfortunately it does not work yet on 4.3, but akellar is working on it for AOKP.

No dock audio on kitkat roms

Does anyone have any experience using the iBolt Xprodock with their Note 2? I've tried with two different KitKat roms but I can't get audio to come through the car when my phone is docked. I've seen some similar complaints about other galaxy phones on 4.4, I just can't imaging that dock audio isn't supported?

As I already told you, dock audio hasn't worked on any aosp rom on this (or any other smdk4412) device that I am aware of.
Yes I remember, I thought perhaps someone had found a workaround. There is an old app in the play store that rerouted audio thru the dock on Samsung devices a little over a year ago, wasn't sure if something like that was around or being worked on.
