Hey guys,
so i just bought the P20 lite and was quite amazed how it feels even tho that I loved my OnePlus One.
But soon i was dissapointed...
My old headphones (HyperX Cloud 2) are not working on the P20, even tho they still work on my one, pc and whatsoever.
So I called in at Huawei and they told me that I should check other headphones speakers etc.
I headed over to my pc and put in my speakers and what should I say... they worked :/
Now the question: why are my headphones not working on my p20
because old headphones use omtp, while new standart is ctia, i have same problem with oneplus 5t too, 3.5mm without microphone is not affected by this. if your phone's own headphones works, then nothing wrong with your phone. just a technological incompatibility

So, ive got this Headset from the X10 Mini Pro, which worked wonders on that device, right now ive switched from the X10 to the P500 and kept the headset, thinking it would work wonders too, little did i know, it acts quite weirdly...
The audio in them kind of works, but its not 100%, its similar to when you have your headphones not plugged all the way down, weird thing is, when you press the ansewer button, the sound gets 100% clear...
Anyone has any idea why this happens?
this happens to my sony ericsson headset too.. i guess its just how theyre built. im guessing its a mono and stereo compatibility issue. you can read it from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRS_connector
I was wondering how standard is "standard" 3.5 jack. Does "standard" means I can use any stereo headphones but still have to find compatible headset (stereo headphones + mic + one button).
From these posts I can assume that LG is not compatible with Sony. What about Nokia or iPhone? How many different implementation are there?
iphone 3G will work, 3Gs will not. there's various adapters that are available, i'v ordered one that's supposed to work for all iphone headsets, and it's got a little plastic android on it, lol! cute, but i'll see how it works. if you want to find one, just google android headset adapter. i just ordered the adapter today, i'll post later and let you know how it works. so as of right now, most headsets with just a mic and answer button should work. skullcandy ink'd is one pair that i recommend. they run about $30 CND, and they have good sound.
My friend has an iPhone and he uses V-Moda headphones and when I bought this phone, he wanted to see the output and connected the headphones to XPS and it doesn't recognize the headphones even though its 3.5mm and on the top the music plays through the speaker in the back.
I have checked the headphones with several other phones like HTC and Nokia they are working fine.
Does anyone know why and how to use these on XPS?
If there are any good headphones for XPS, please suggest.
The ones provided are cheap and sound is poor.
Well i have some kind of 'issue' with this too.
When i connect any headphones other than the stock ones that came with it, it doesn't show up in the notification bar (no headphone icon is appearing).
However, the headphones are working perfectly fine.
The problem i have isn't such a big deal, because they are working anyway.
I reckon any 3.5mm headphones should work, i have no idea what could possibly cause your problem.
I use skullcandy's on it btw, but they are just cheap headphones with bad sound quality
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.
Hey guys!
So i just bought a P20 lite, switched from Iphone 6 to this new phone and I love it.
But i figured out the headphones volume (with the same headphones) is just really really really low, i tought something is wrong with my Phone, but i've tried out a few in the Retail Store, and they are the same low volume as mine. Is there any way to make it louder without Rooting? I saw a few videos on YouTube that you can go into an EngineeringMode, but it only works with the MediaTek phones.
Any ideas?

Don't call me names, but have you tried the obvious of choosing "Yes" when a prompt saying "Raise volume above..." When increasing the sound via volume buttons?

Yeah of course, it seems to be a software limitation i think. But its kinda stupid.
Where did you buy the phone?
I've been using mine and the sound outputs perfectly, even with the headphones provided. I'm able to listen to music while commuting and hearing properly while driving with my windows down

Let's hope for the best .
Hi,
I have the same "issue" with mine. Also switched from i6 and I've used OnePlus 3T as well and both of them were louder and the quality was much better than P20 lite.
Do you have any solution? (bought it from Vodafone Hungary)
You are comparing a mid-range phone with an apple flagship phone definitely the p20 lite will be a bit lower than the iphone even with high end earphones its not gonna sound like a flagship one
it has software limitation...i can increase sound by 200 and maybe 300% (did it in P8) but my phone not rooted, and i listing music through bt headsets

Iphone 6 is not even close to a flagship phone, really old, so the comparison is i think not one sided.
I to was not happy with the volume on the P20 lite, but as pointed out, it is at a Perfect Pitch to enable you to Still listen to what is going on around you(well done Huawei), which is a very good safety precaution. The quality of the sound is very good, I can only put it down to the type and make of headphones you are using, travelling on the London tube where there is a lot of noise I prefer the Denon exercise freak in-ear (wireless), these headphones also have their own volume that block out everything, including the tube, perfect for the surroundings. But for normal everyday use I prefer wired overhead B&O h6 headphones for the quality, and being able to hear surrounding sounds is for me a must(safety is a hi feature in my life). Try Currys PC World they have a good range of headphones that are set up for testing and I'm sure you will find a set that meet your needs.
Hey all!
I have a Huawei P20 lite and when I plug in my Logitech G231 Prodigy it doesn't recognise it and just uses the speakers. If I use a different headphone it works fine, but I really don't like these cheap things. I've heard about some app called SoundAbout, but it's not compatible with android 8. Also, the headphone works fine in my laptop + old phone & used to work on my P20 lite (which is a month old) but since today it's just not detected. Can anyone please help me out on this?
