Hi all did u know older Xperia are one standard of jack plug, when newer Xperia ranges are the new iPhone standard of jack plug , ones called ompt and the ctia, I believe, jvc is the only place I've found a fix for this problem, there gummy plus range comes with a adapter so older Xperia devices can use the newer standard, great now I can use my pricey beats by dre with Mic, basically the difference between the two standards is apple swapped gnd and Mic on there devices, I just like to make people aware as I bought 18 sets on mic'd headphones and only 2 have worked, now with the adaptor that comes with jvc gummy plus I can use any of then via the adaptor, great! Shame I spend about 100 bucks lol

Lol, yea I know about this. Refer to this post it tells you everything.
I learnt it the hardway
Yeah bummer I hadnt seen it before, but I got a adaptor and gummy plus headphones which is loads better than the Sony adaptor in price , plus thos gummyplus sound great
But now at least I got about 15 spare sets of headphones with Mic , and I can use my beats by dre set ; plus this cheap fx set that sound same as beats , and also my Xperia z and sp ones work , but the reversed adaptor is hard to find only place was pc company who are building me one , just in case I need one in the furture lol

That is a waste having many headsets, I have Sony DJ Headphones, Skull Candy earphones & Sony earphones all of which work because they do not have a inbuilt microphone so there is no port problem. The stock headset from Sony Ericsson, IMO, is very good-but then again I am not the type of person who spends much money on headsets e.g. Beats by Dre.

As stupid as it sounds, I can't find any headphones that work with my xperia. I just tried my apple in-ear w/ remote and they "work" except you can tell that the sound is off because they don't go all the way in.
I'm determined to use the headphones though, so what should I do?
Have you tried anything else apart from the cRapple ones?
Every headset I have tried does work
The $100 apple headphone are quite good actually, and basically everything I've tried with the 4 pin connector doesn't work. 3 pin is hit and miss.
Yup, everything I've tried works...
Ok, I havent tried much, but they've all worked...

As far as I remember only Samsung and SE 4 Pin ones are fully interchangeable.
My friend who is an Apple fanboy thought his $100 headphones were good as well, that's until he tried my headsets. I have an Older much cheaper Creative EP -630 headset and also a newer earphone section of my SE HPM-77 (it's plug is actually fastport as it was designed for the Xperia Pureness, but you can separate the two) Anyways, those headphones coupled with the standard Xperia 3.5 Cable sound brilliant! Also much cheaper than the Apple variant. Needless to say, he was rather pissed he spent that much for his.
My advice to you, buy a new headset like the creative ones or sennheiser cx300 Which are identical. You could also use a standard 4 pin Xperia cable that has a normal 3 pin out and you wont have any problems (the kind that come with the X1 and X2). If you don't have one, they are pretty cheap on eBay (it comes complete with the OEM headphones as well).

Ironically I have had Senn CX300s and CX500s and wasn't a big fan of either. I might try the 500s again I only gave them up because they got stolen (who steals in ear headphones anyway?)
But anyway, what I'd like is a 4 pin barrel that fits the Xperia so I can make an adaptor for my apple headphones. Surprising the buttons on the headset seem to work, unfortunately it sounds like garbage due to not fitting though.

I have these too - they're great and have a low bass freq. too. (Creative EP-630)
I want to buy ultimate ears headset with built in microphone. Does anyone if they would work with x10 mini ? It says works with iPod, iPhone, MP3 players.
I'm guessing not, as the X10mini/pro headset has extra connectors on the side (hence the keyhole shaped earphone socket)
If you can try before you buy that would be your best bet. Ive tried many that wont play sound out of the headphones much less use the mics. It seems like A LOT of headphones especially ones with mics don't work with the phone.
I bought headset from mytrendyphone.co.uk. I bought Jabra BT3030 and its really a best buy.
It all depends on the wiring standard thats used on the TRRS mini jack..
I think this is how it is on the X10 (and also iPhone, HTC, Blackberry etc..)
1 Tip Left Audio Out
2 Ring 1 Right Audio Out
3 Ring 2 Ground
4 Sleeve Microphone Input\answer button
I know Nokia have pin 3 and 4 swapped around so wont work with the X10, and there may be more out there but I think most are trying to standardise to the above setup.. so you shouldn´t have too much trouble finding a headset to work with the X10 (just stay away from Nokia)
(the extra bits next to the mini plug are just for powering the SE portable speakers and other SE crap you will be able to buy.. nothing to do with headsets)

It doesn´t. The original SE headset that came with my X10 mini pro has absolutely normal connector (despite the fact that the socket on the X10 mini pro is keyhole shaped), and no functionality is lost.

Ahh, ok then. The headset that came with my X10mini (MH810) has the extra connectors, but also has an inline control (play/pause, next, prev, vol +/-), so perhaps the extra connectors drive those
Does anyone know a good headset like the MH810 that has music control and mic but also with removable headphones (normal mini jack)? would be nice to use over ear headphones in winter.. (was thinking of going for the MW600 BT, but would be happy with wired if anyone knows a good one?) needs to be able to change headphones.
I wanted to give these a shot :

They seem good quality, though a bit expensive, but don't know if they would work with the mini. I sent a mail to them asking if it would but didn't get any answer.

Looks like they come with a bunch of adaptors (to cater for all devices, even Nokia who went with a weird TRRS setup) so they should work on the mini.
I'm also pretty sure anything that will work for the iphone will work on the mini (same TRRS configuration) .. but I haven't tested this (it would certainly make it easier for us to find headsets) someone must have an iphone headset available to try out? so many sheep out there with those devices... (I'm living on the other side of the world at the moment to all my iphone junky friends so I can't test it myself )
Well, just got a mail from UrbanEars customer service :
Hi,
Thanks foru your mail. I´m sorry to say but Sony Ericsson Xperis X10 Mini is not compatible with Urbanears Medis.
Urbanears Medis is microphone and remote compatible with most devices from Nokia, Blackberry, HTC and iPhones.
So I won't buy them, don't want to take the risk even if there seems to be adapters.
Also, I bought UltimatEars headset with built in microphone (it says on the box it works with iPhone and most phones) and ... tada !! they don't work with the mini :-(
when I hook them up, the sound still just goes out the phone speakers, sound doesn't even come out of the headset.
So folks, I guess we're just stuck buying sony ericsson products when it comes to headsets.

weird.. I was pretty sure the pin outs were the same as iPhone (according to various sites I looked at) shows you can't believe everything you read on the intertubes! bloody sony! I guess the best thing would be to find a SE headset with mic/control and stereo headphone socket.. then you can use any headphones.. the only SE ones I have seen are for the old style (hot port?) plug like the K850/W800 etc.. I haven't seen one with a normal TRRS plug yet I just got a MW600 BT set so I can use some decent headphones over BT but would be nice to find a wired option too.
BTW apart from the song titles and caller id not showing up on the MW600 the sound quality is pretty amazing, and it auto switches from listening to music from the X10mini to Skype calls from the laptop, and visa versa.. and on Ubuntu too! sweeeeeet!
I am thinking of getting one of those, but in reality I hate having to charge the headset. how much autonomy do you get with a full charge ? how long is a complete charge ?

SE marketing claims about 10 hours Playtime/talk time and 520hrs standby! ... I only just unboxed mine yesterday so time will tell what the real world figures are.. (I mostly use it for music and not much for calls.. I hate looking like a **** talking to myself in public, but if I am driving, on the bike or skiing then headsets are o.k
I think full charge is a couple of hours.. and it comes with a wall charger (550mA) so thats my new phone charger next to the bed (as the Amperage delivered is better for the phone than the 850mA stock one) and it means the USB cable can stay with the laptop for charging both phone and headset when I'm traveling.
I'm pretty happy with the headset so far.. and if I eventually replace the X10 with something that supports track id and caller id over bluetooth.. then woot!
I have a set of these
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/hbh-ds205?lc=en&cc=au
they are the BOMB on x10mini
I have tried two iphone headsets they DO NOT work with mini. A lot of headsets don't in my experience. I wish the iphone headset worked because I like it more than the headset that came with the mini.
It actually doesnt even recognize them at all when you plug them in it continues to play sounds/music from the speaker.
I got HPM-60/J on ebay and they work(including mic).
Does anyone know earbud style (not noise cancellation) with mic that are Y shaped not around the back style(i dont know what its actually called but Se loves that kind)?
Basically I want iphone headset style that works on the mini.
The problem with iphone headsets in the X10mini is the Ground and Mic wire on the plug is opposite... so there is no ground wire for the headphones or mic, this means no sound can come out.
to make an adapter all you would have to do is chop the end off an old headset (either Sony or Iphone) with a few inches of cable to play with..
work out with a multimeter which pins are which cables T(tip)-R(ring)-R(ring)-S(sleeve) and solder on a TRRS socket (available from most good electronics shops) with the last Ring and the Sleeve reversed. (remember its tricky to solder this type of cable.. you need to scrape off some of the coloured insulation with a sharp knife or razor blade so the solder sticks to the bare copper)
if this is too difficult then buy a TRRS socket and TRRS plug from you electronics store and a piece of 4 core cable and join them (swapping the last Ring and Sleeve around)
I have seen the finished adaptors for sale online for about $15-$20 USD (might be worth the investment if you are not good with a soldering iron)

I had some hp headphones that used a seperate jack for the mike and they work perfectly with my mini pro as do all of the headphones I've tried it with.
But they might be different as the pro's headset that comes with no media controls except a button that will pause it.

Hi, guys!
I'm new in the Mini section. I've been using X10 Mini for almost an year, but now I'm with a Xperia Mini 2011.
In the past I was using MH810 handsfree and it was having a pretty nice sound, sound remote control on the wire, but it is incompatible with the Mini.
So which handsfree with sound remote control is compatible with the Mini? Only SE Live Sound or there are others?
Thanks in advance for the info!
The 2011 xperia line uses a diferent type of protocol for the 3,5mm connector that's why other headsets are incompatible. I think that your only choices are the models released by Sony Ericsson i.e. Livesound.
Sent from my mango using xda premium
I currently have Sony MW600, Hi-Fi Wireless Headset, works via Bluetooth, quality is good enough, costs also less than LiveSound, also has remote control buttons Play/Pause, Next/Previous and volume.
But what you mean, that is incompatible with Mini? Just give it a try, according to me, you have nothing to lose...
The 3.5 mm jacks of the X10 Mini and the Xperia Mini are different - that's why they're incompatible and the wonderful MH810 handsfree cannot work on the Xperia Mini.
What about putting a 3.5 mm jack on to a HPM 82 handsfree instead of the fast-connector - will it work?
I'm asking because MH1 Livesound is not being sold in Bulgaria, so I should order it from amazon.uk maybe.
What do you mean, that does not work? No sound or controls don't work or what?
Take a look in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1229622
summary: buy the gadget linked there and get any iphone compatible headset you want.
Someguyfromhell, I mean the jacks are DIFFERENT!!! Why don't you look at them in Google? Why should you ask that questions, as I have already explained that twice?!

It's not directly the phone, that has different jack. Both have 3.5mm jacks, it doesn't make any difference at all.
The headset has additional part, which is...I have no idea, what for. Probably additional functions from the remote control.
One way would be to try getting rid of this additional chip thing, if you are willing to take that risk.

Why do u continue with that stupid... suggestions?! Getting rid of the additional contact-strips will make the remote control of the handsfree completely useless and I will not be able to recieve calls, or sell the handsfree to some X10 Mini owner.

I've tried Nokia headphones a few days ago, they did have remote control for the music player on the wire, but... they didn't worked with the mini. Or at least the remote control didn't. There was sound, but no control over it. Maybe because they were a cheap Chinese copy.
I found my old X1 lead, it has a socket on the mic for use with any headphones
Also old SE HPM-80 in ear headphones are good
Sent from my Xperia Mini using Tapatalk
Yep, they're like HPM 82 with display on the remote control, but with a fastport again. I'll try to solder a 3.5mm jack to a HPM 82 handsfree (to replace the fastport), but I may not succeed because there are 8 or 9 cables out of the wire and only 4 holes to solder them on the 3.5mm jack...
using easy sennheiser headphones, awesome for less money
I've got second hand Sony Ericsson MH1 for half price. Not so special, good sound, not better than the old HPM-82 or MH810 for example. And the lack of a clip for hanging on the neck piece is obviously a disadvantage! The free is constantly slipping down and pulling the ears - very annoying!
The lack of separate buttons for changing the music tracks is also a disadvantage - music tracks are changed with continuous pressing the volume buttons of the handsfree's remote control, not with separate buttons like on the HPM-82 or MH810. But it seems that this is due to the 3.5mm jack cable-number connectivity limitation. The MH810 has some additional ports on the side of the 3.5mm jack, which allow it to have more buttons on the remote control, while MH1 doesn't have them on the jack.
guys i've been looking for budget headphones that would fit in xperia mini's jack
i don't know if it would help but i tried couple of nokia headphones that worked with the device along with the samsung corby pro's stock stock headphones and they all worked currently im considering buying
MEElectronics M9-SL
or the
iLuv iEP322BLK citylights
but i don't know if any of those is compatible with the xperia mini anyway so advice would be appreciated
Note:I just want music to my ears
Xperia Mini has regular 3.5 mm jack, so you can use any headphones(with 3.5mm jack) with the phone.

i think you can use any headphones you want... i've tried like 5-6 headphones on LWW, and every single one of them worked, and i dont see a reason why wouldnt they... The only difference is with those headphones that have microphone, and they have 4pin instead of 3pin connector, but that doesnt really matter, audio connector is designed to work with both connectors.

Yeah, sometimes it doesnt work the other way around, i.e. the ones with 4pins (original headphones for my LWW for example) wont work in devices that do not support 4pin headphones (audio output on my pc), and it'll either sound mono or even crappier than that But you can buy 4 to 3 pin 3.5mm audio adapter for like a buck on ebay.

They actually suck big time... I had SE W580i (also Walkman series) before LWW, and it had MUCH much better headphones...
whats the cheapest headset with good sound quality and sound cancellation?
You're going to need to buy an adapter like the Fiio Lu1 which can make iPhone headsets work with the Xperia Mini Pro.
I really, really hope you're making a clear distinction between headsets and headphones.
Headphones will work 90% of the time, our problem are these proprietary sony headset connectors. Most of the "good" headsets out there (Beats and the like) are designed for the iPhone and similar devices, and our phones don't play ball with them.

I bouht a Ultimate Ears 200vi. It works great with My Nexus 7 but not with my Xperia Mini pro.
Is there any difference in the connector?
Yes there is. Your Nexus (and pretty much everything else) uses a CTIA connector. while older Xperia devices use the OMTP spec.
You could just go ahead and buy a CTIA-to-OMTP adapter, or crack your mic open and reverse the GND and Vmic wires.
Ok, so I got G3 from a contract and gave it to little sis and she still uses her Beats earbuds so I was all happy with new pair of earbuds for free - but I tried it on 2 phones and cant get the sound right.
My Xperia Z2 - wont work, only left is working
Old ZTE Blade 3 phone - distorted sound, could barely get both buds to work if I wiggle the jack a bit
As I have seen these earbuds are sold separately and as a stand-alone product, Im wondering is there a difference in audio jack for a bundled version and stand-alone version .. ?
pleaste if you have them, try them on a non-LG device and tell me. Cause Im planing on replacing the 3.5mm jack if that is the case.
I wanna know that too...
And also
I bought some stand alone Quadbeats 2 for me and it sounded very bad compared to the ones a friend of mine had which came with his G3...
I wonder do they (LG) put the same work and dedication for both, or they are not caring for their stand alone products? Or the ones that I bought was fake?
Thank You
LG's approach to headphone audio is different from universal. Wanted to give my sister Quadbeats on her S4 because I got much better earbuds but Quadbeats just dont work for her. I experience the issue only on other phones than LG's.
Since I use third-party earbuds (Sony ones which are much better and more expensive) I have to plug and unplug them (5-10 times) until the phone recognizes them as standard headphones. Otherwise it would go wild launching google voice search, changing tracks, changing volume and stopping music every 3 seconds.
Get a pair of Sennheiser CX3.00 or CX5.00. Get the G version. They work excellent with the LG G3 and the sound is so much better then the Quadbeat headphones.
So, even though no one answered exactly my question I get the point - Im slicing them up. Putting regular 3.5mm jack while connecting only ground and L/R and dont care for the rest of the wires/buttons. Ah man, I love soldering.
