So I recently purchased a pair of Samsung earphones with the two volume controls and a third button and was wanting to control my music with it. Unfortunately I couldn't get them to work and was wondering if anyone here knew a workaround.

I wanna say that the functionality would need to be built into the kernel in order to register the button presses and have them trigger some action, but don't quote me on that...at the very least you would need to have an app running in the background for it to work since it doesn't sound like android supports it natively. Is there a list of compatible devices on the packaging?

Not sure if this has been done or not, but if there was a way we could use our android phones as a remote for our tablets to control things like the music player or set up to mimic of the tablet interface on the phone (this probably would be an ICS software trait I would think). I want to mount my flyer in my car to bluetooth my music to the headunit but would be nice to control it from my phone that sits in my lap.

I would love a app like that
The button on the headphones only seems to stop or play music. It doesn't allow call answer or activate voice.input. Am I using it wrong or are there settings I need to change?

Same for me, only worked when I used the headset button mapper app from the market (double click to skip to next track performed terribly, dis app fixed it). Updating to 2.3.5 fixed the skip track issue for me so I got rid of the headset app. Still can't answer calls with the headset
Double click for next works best if you do it slowly.
Nightmare. I have 2.3.5. Its not so much the music but the calls.

Just upgraded from vibrant and my beats solo Mic cord is not working with this phone. Anyone else get there's to work? When I plug it in its registered as a earphone device that may be the problem.
It's not compatible man bit annoying u can still answer calls with it gets but no volume control

Woow unbelievable.. there better be a fix for this soon or some 3rd party app. Not even wired headset fix worked. If I plug in the cord all the way I can hear the person on the phone, but the person can't hear me. If I don't click the cord all the way down "sometimes" they can hear me through the Mic, but I can't hear them. Can't believe a phone in 2012 is not compatible with such a huge commercial item.
Because it sucks and no one wants to use it anyway

Does that allow you to use your beats during phone calls? I could care less about using my phone as a music player, because i have another device for that, but using it as a headset for phone calls is crucial
I can answer calls with mine no problem

I tried shutting my phone off and it still doesn't work. I tried using the beats mic on my ipod touch and it works so i know the cord isn't bad. Also the headphones with the mic that came with the galaxy S 3 work as well.
I just purchased the wired version of wired version of the GameKlip to use with my HTC Droid DNA. It's not rooted, but their site said the PS3 controller works through an otg cable, which is included with the gameklip. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get it to work. I've seen conflicting reports with some people saying it works for them, orther say it doesn't.
When i connect the controller to my phone via the cable, my phone gives me a notification that says, "Unable to charge device. Please use the supported charger." On the controller, all 4 "player indicator" lights blink as if it's charging. Supposedly a white cursor box should show up and I should be able to manipulate it with the left analog stick. This does not happen.
Has anyone gotten it to work or have any suggestions for getting it to work?
-Thanks
I have a HTC DNA and just got the GameKlip also. Im having the same problem. Anyone know a solution?
Nope hoping for a custom Rom that supports sixaxis I love my phone but not being able to connect my ps3 controler is such a downer.

You can try to install DSB's Bluetooth mod from the original android development thread it might help

So you can't use sixaxis app with stock rooted rom?? Was just about to root for that reason only, but if it doesn't work, I'll wait.

Good luck the Bluetooth stack on DNA lacks a lot of support.
I have slowly been trying to figure what I need to port in order for it to work but no clear answer yet
Cyanogenmod would work if and only if who ever makes it for are rom has to use blues and a proprierty stack instead of HTC.
Its all in the kernel ask one of the kernel maker's to add this in as it would allow proper sixaxis support and Bluetooth headset too.
If it was only a Bluetooth problem, you'd think it would still work with a hardwire connection like it does on nearly every other Android. Xbox controllers would work too.

Cm 10.1 rom now supports pairing ps3 controller with six axis app!

He said he paired it so I assume it was over bluetooth. CM uses its own bluetooth implementation(I think) so try it out. CM brought life into this phone, HTC made it a joke honestly.
I have the gameklip with the included otg cable
must be on flyhalfs cm 10.1 Rom
Steps I took
Bring up the sixaxis app
plug in the cables and hit pair
Once that's done unplug the cable
You only have to pair it once
Hit start then the ps button on the controller
Change ime to sixaxis
Done
I have some touch emulation profiles I made for.some games like modern combat 4 and nova 3
Nova 3 would force close on the first level
Modern combat works fine
I switched back to nos m7 Rom tho until.camera.and battery life get fined tuned on cm 10.1

PAC uses CM as the tree so whatever works in CM will work in PAC.
I have tested it on pac and it definitely works.

Hey, I have been using the klipsch s4a for almost a year and they sound like an angel but the button sucks. I think this is because of the remote application which Klipsch tells you to get. It's lousy. I am limited to these for a selction: iBeats, powerbeats, or klipsch s4a ii. Which one has the best button responsiveness? Oh also when I use sense roms(viper4g 2.0.2) the button control is utteerly useless. But in AOSP roms(jellybam 4.0.0) its better but not the best.

Sorry to say but I don't think a pair exists that let's you use all 3 buttons on Android. I have the S4's and Beat Tours and none work. That's why I still carry around my iPod Touch 4G. It really sucks too because the controls on the headphones work perfectly for Apple products. What really is more amazing is the Beats haven't made a pair for Android seeing as How HTC and them had a partnership a couple years ago and their phones still push the Beats software.
If you guys want all the buttons to work use this
