Anyone know of a retractable headset for the HTC P3300? The tangled wires are really annoying me - I had a retractable set with my K-JAM but can't find one for this... Thanks!
Why don't you try a converter and use your k-jam headphones with it,I find the k-jam headsets far better than the orbit.
Already sold the K-Jam headset. Would the microphone and answer button still work? I thought the adapters were audio-only...
Try these?

I have a similar problem... I use some retractable headphones with an adapter, but no hands-free!
Have just ordered some Smartwraps on ebay (ebay for 'smartwrap') - only a couple of quid, may be a workaround?
........I bought one of these:

and one of these:

I can listen to Pocket player or the FM radio and I don't have to untangle cables. You also get the splitter so next holiday by the pool the Missus can listen too. It doesn't work with the phone but I can live with unplugging to take a call.

Can anyone recomend a replacement for the standard stero handsfree kit that comes with the MDA Pro.
I've seen these http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/10098.htm, but was wondering if anyone knew of any better ones?
I'm also looking for such a headset. The one on your links looks nice, but is there a volume control on it? I can't see that.
The one in mobilefun.co.uk is just the same as the one came from the box.
There is no other alternative so far I could find....
Though I found one (and I ordered already) from
http://pc-mobile.net/pqtaa.htm
that is for a 3.5mm headphone/mic jack.
So, I will post again if this really fits the Universal....GOOD LUCK!!!
Cheers,
Yeah, the headset fits without any problem.
That is the same as the HP Ipaq 54xx/55xx/63xx/65xx, Toshiba e75x/80x.
Although its a bit expensive, USD33 including postage....
Cheers,
Just out of curiousity, what happened to your hands free kit that came with the unit, guys?
The original one comes with the package is excellent except that it is too lengthy and the pair of earphones always messes with others.
I would like to have a single lead earphone that I can change to stereo when I want.
So, the one that I just got is perfect but it is quite easily to be damage....
Cheers,
:twisted: :twisted: My over excited dog snagged them with a paw when I got home from work and I think she snapped the cable inside the sheathing.
Wired headset with headband with wires
Can anyone recommend a headset for the Universal that
IS NOT BLUETOOTH
Has a headband with good sized speakers, not earbuds and dangly wires
IS NOT BLUETOOTH
Microphone, PTT switch, volume
and isn't bluetooth? i.e. it's wired to the 4 pole jack?
Thanks
Nick
Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info!
I have one of this headset that I bought few years ago for my XDA/Wallaby (with the 2.5mm plug). Yes, its very easy to be damaged (very delicate) but yet mine is still functional until now. Some part of the wire is already torn and I have to put some tape on it.
I use it mainly to connect my XDA/Wallaby to my car stereo system.
Thanks that you share this info, now I know that there is a suitable version for the Universal as well.
Do you mind to confirm back that the headset indeed works perfectly with the Universal:
1. The call answer button
2. The microphone
3. Volume control
4. The stereo jack
I will definately get one if you can help clarify that every point is working fine. Thanks in advance.
Yeah. Everything is fine altough the answer key need more practices.
Good to hear that the info is usefual.
Cheers,
Thanks Chris!
The answer button, you just press it once to pick up a call right?
What special practice do you need?
I sticked my old one (for the XDA) in my car dashboard near the stereo system. So when the phone rings, I just press it once and the call then will be in the car speakers. The microphone is not that great, ppl usually complaint me that my voice is so low, but guess what, they indeed can hear me.

This is exactly what I'm trying to set up in my car,how do I do it? I tried using a splitter (one 3.5 mm male plug with two female 3.5mm openings) and running one end to my car stereo, and the audio from the call comes through the car speakers nicely but I can't use either the mic from the included (in the box) headset for voice nor will the device's mic work...
Anyone know of a replacement wired heasdet that can still use the radio? I hate the earbuds on the bundled one...they dont fit into my ears and fall off very easily.

Be careful. The link listed here is for 3.5m plug but you will need a 2.5 version for the Atom.

what brand/kind of headset can give deep penetrating bass to atom exec?
which brand of wired headphones can work with XDA atom. i have tried nokia 6600 but that does not work can any1 tell me which brand headphones will work.
in my city there is no outlet for O2 original headphones and i do want to indulge in to online shopping.
please help me
make your own, buy a pair of sony earphones and solder them with your original ones...this is what i have done in the past, but now im using audiophiles...so i bought a 2.5mm to a 3.5mm jack...
Hello,
I’m new to this phone and forum, just getting my head round it. First problem I’m trying to tackle is the frankly awful headphones that come with the device.
Trying to find decent 2.5 mm headphones is not easy, I bought a 2.5 to 3.5 adapter but it’s a bit rubbish and loose and I’m sure it is changing it from stereo to mono. So after hours of research I’ve found some Sennheiser MM50’s. These have an integrated mic and also a 2.5mm 4 pole jack.
Now are these likely to work on my phone as I understand there are different ways that 2.5mm jacks can be wired up?
Thanks in advance.
I guess you will have to try it.
I use some Siedo headphones I got off eBay. They are not brilliant but are better than the supplied ones.
I can't find it right now but I came across this: http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=127646
It's an adpator - that is wired correctly for a HTC 2.5mm sockect and it has a built-in mic. You can plug any 3.5mm headphone jack into it. - Heck - I might get one myself!
Cheers, that doesnt look to bad. I notice that was compatible with the P900 which I think is compatible the Sennheiser MM50’s. So maybe they will be ok.
Do you know if the prophet has a standard 2.5mm 4 pole connector?
Yes, it's the usual 2.5mm 4 pole connector. There doesn't seem to be a "standard" way of wiring them though but the link I gave you should be fine.
It is NOT recommendable, for the Sennheiser MM50 headphones are made for Motorola devices/phones. HTC Prophet appears to have different wiring schema compared to Motorola and the headphones will play only from one channel - unfortunately.
I bought them recently (in spite of warnings on this forum) and was very disappointed to experience this effect. Fortunately however, I was able to give them back to the shop.
I use my old Sony Ericsson P800's headphones and the quality is waaay better. In fact the best non-professional headphones I've had till now were all Sonys.
It has to be Sony.
Have a look at Ebay. Search for SPV M600 and you may find a whole host of accessories. Or search specifically for:
Handsfree Remote/Adaptor for Orange SPV M600/M3000 PDA or
Oasis music adapter for qtek S200, SPV M600, Dopod 830
I have a similar item and it allows me to use any headphones or even connect it to my HiFi. It even has a PTT button and microphone to answer calls - imagine having a phone call routed through your home HiFi!
Hi!!!
Do you know if this one can work with prophet?
http://shop.brando.com.hk/htcstereoconverterwithmicrophone.php
I'm not sure...
i just soldered sony-Groove earpices to it, sounds way better!, modification was pretty easy
Can you post some pics of it?

This one is not compatible with the Prophet. Prophet uses a 2.5mm jack while the newer HTC devices use the mini-USB connection for the headphones. The product in the link that you provided is meant for these newer devices. What you want is a 2.5mm (male) to 3.5mm (female) converter. You can find them at www.expansys.com.
i have a ****ty headset.. ears hurt, head hurts, n everything else juss seems annoying.. i love smaller more comfortable, stereo headsets.. any recommendations.. please give me links from ebay if the item is available over there.. all feedback is highly appreciated..
Try the motorola s9 stereo blue tooth headsets. I know they are expensive and all, but they are pretty decent looking for a stereo bluetooth headset, most of which are have been pretty ugly so far. Here are the reviews. I am planning to buy one myself.
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-MOTO...6208?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1182306778&sr=8-1
I know you might not be looking for wireless headset but I think they will become very popular in near future, given that most mp3 phones now support that a2dp functionality. Anyway thats my 2 c.
I don't know, but what do you people think of this one?
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4301
The site also has many other OEM bluetooth, if you're looking, but I wonder about this headset.
Edit: yea, i stupidly bought it, tell u it doesn't work, cause of 11 pin usb.

Hello. Unfortunately this type of headset (with mini usb) does not work with Prophet. I tried with a RAZR adapter and no sound... The link also does not included Dopod 818 (aka Prophet).
My recomendation is Jabra BT620s http://cgi.ebay.com/New-OEM-Jabra-Handsfree-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset-BT620s_W0QQitemZ140151107677QQihZ004QQcategoryZ133228QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
This is a BT Headset, the sound is very good and work fine with Propert.
I've this one and recomended.
See you.
Anyone know good ones that i can buy online, with wire.
Stereo headset
I did a lot of looking around before I bought my headset, and in the end chose the Plantronics Pulsar 590a. It kicks ass! It comes with a REALLY nice case, a headphone jack bluetooth transmitter (for your cassette walkman), an extra microphone extention arm, an inflight cable for use without Bluetooth, a wall and USB charger and a nice desktop stand.
Performance with the Prophet is great. If I'm listening to music and a call comes in, it switches over to Hands-free mode and I can touch the phone button on the earpiece to answer. After the call is over, the music comes back automatically. The earpiece remote also allows for voice-dail, switching tracks and mute/volume adjustment.
I did manage to fry mine by trying to charge it with the USB charger cable plugged into a car cigarette lighter style USB adapter. After that they would no longer charge. I didn't want to deal with the company I bought them from, so I called Plantronics direct. They wanted a scanned copy of the recipt, and when I sent it, I recieved an answer which said that a new unit has been shipped, and to please dispose of the old one. 2 days later I had my new headphones! Now that's service!
The only other complaint that I have with the product is the blue light on the earpiece. It kind of draws a lot of attention, but I love them! Best headset I ever owned!
Mine is a Dell BH200.. works fine..
expansys.com have tons of converters so one can use any 3.5mm minijack headsets
though not with mic i think
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Motorola-MO...8?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1194653052&sr=8-1
this one seems insanely cheap not sure if it's good or even works with htc pdas but cheap
i use a coverter so i can use ordanery headphones for music, not to bothered about using it for calls
pairing bt headset for music
hi. I need help. Have bought a cheepo BSH01 BT stereo headset. Looks fine and works perfectly with calls. Can't get it to work with music though. Any clues? I have a O2 converted to PM300 WM5 (ROM 2.13.9.21 ITA radio 02.07.20). Something to do with a2dp? any player that I might use instead of wmp?
Thanks
i have buyied this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350027412931
what you think?
Hi folks,
I'm looking for a comfy headset (or two) for a TyTn II & Athena 100.
I love the remote here:
http://i.expansys.com/i/b/b150195.jpg
...but hate these type of ear pieces.
Is there anything similar with a headset or that will allow a PC (stereo) headset to be used?
Cheers!
..
ill think you'll find that headset allows you to use different headsets (3.5mm) however i just ordered the htc u110 adaptor ... check that out ?

Yep, you're right, it does!
Seems to be an HC E100 which i just ordered on Fleabay for under 14 quid.
I looked at the u110 but there's not enough buttons on it lol.
Cheers for the info!
