Hey guys. Recently the right side of my stock HOX earphones stopped working. It just randomly stopped working and it's a bit of a pain.
My question is whether I can claim it back on warranty. And if so, can I get a replacement direct by calling HTC Support or do I have to go to a service centre?
To be honest I don't think it's worth the hassle going to a service centre and rather just have it posted to me.
Thanks in advance!

I dont think that the headphones are under warranty, but you can try ... i didnt use them at all ... i buyed a SensationXE for my girlfriend and pic the urBeats and they are great ... maybe you should buy some Beats earphones too. I know they arent cheap, but they worth every penny

I have my urbeats from my XE. HTC probably skived giving them out with one x to keep price down.
This is a great opportunity to get some new headphones and the best value headphones I have found are the Sennheiser PX 100 - II, in the UK they retail for about £30. I use the flat eq setting and use Volume+ app which gives far better listening levels, through headphones and the speaker.
Great earphones
Hi
I picked up a pair of beyerdynamic MMX 101 Ie today and so far there are great.
I had the soundmagic mp21 and I thought there were good till the jack plug decided to break, so I decided to get a new pair but spend a little more money and after checking loads of reviews I found the Beyerdynamic mxx101 ie and Wow what a treat these one are....
Cheap ass lol just invest abit more $$$ and buy better headphones

OP I know this not what you asked but I'd just recommend buying a good pair of aftermarket headphones, as most headphones that ship with a phone are crap. If you really want to appreciate music a good aftermarket set will be a good idea. Check out the Monster Turbines or the Klipsch Image S4s for your entry into this territory.
Has anyone tried these headphones? I wanna known how they sound and if they're worth the purchase.

I placed an order for the eartones this am.......I will let you know when they arrive whether they work or not. I emailed iskin and asked if they worked and the rep said they work 100% for mic, volume, everything......same as headset we get with phone.......so heres hoping he wasn't wrong!!
UPDATE..........
So I got the eartones today and they do work great for an apple earbud replacement! HOWEVER, there is NO volume control........they are not even capable of it so not sure why the rep at iskin told me on two occasions that volume control works???? They sound far better than apple earbuds and the mic works great on the S3 as well as answering and declining calls, playing and pausing music. That was my beef with the apple ones as the mic didn't work on the GS3.
If its made for iPhone then most likely no

Yeah thats exactly what I thought too, but then it said it supports the S3 on the site and so I decided to inquire about it working and they claim it does......at any rate I should know is I just wasted my money in a few days.
Do u have a link or model number for the earphones
Yeah so I went to the home page then clicked on shop. Then clicked on vibe under Samsung on the left side. This brought up a page that has the GS3 cases (vibe and aura) as well as it stating the eartones are compatible with the phone too. So yeah the weird thing is there is only one type......not a model for the iPhone and galaxy........so don't worry, I, like u are quite skeptical. But I guess we will see. I still have the email from them stating they work exactly like the Samsung set we get with the phone so I guess I should have no problem returning them if they don't work.

Here is his response to me asking if they in fact work for every function.......if they don't, mark will be getting a call! Lol
I am really crossing my fingers cause I hate in ear headsets......they never fit me no matter how many tips I try.
"Hello Garret,
Thank you for your question.
The eartones absolutely work with the samsung galaxy s3 in regards to the functionality you require.
Playing music...answering and ending calls and the volume buttons are all fully functional.
Hope to see your order soon!
Thanks!

It's a one button remote most likely why it works on both
Bah!!! Brutal you are right! So obviously there will be no volume control.......lame. well Mark definitely got his info messed up that he gave me.......said there is volume control. Yeah maybe with an app!!! Hmmmmmm need to decide quickly if I should cancel my order.
Hey thanks for pointing that out tho!!!

My goodness is it too much to ask for a decent set of ear buds with working mic, volume control!?!?! I just need something that doesn't block out all noise around me.......since I use them for work. As much as the apple buds sucked, they suited my needs exactly! I was very disappointed that they didn't work in the GS3. Any other bud style suggestions?
Thanks xda members!!

My point exactly. Not everyone likes or can use the in ear headphones, so it would be nice if companies did develop some nice headphones for the rest of us!

Try http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=261030664855&index=5&nav=SEARCH&nid=36939919832
Do those have volume control? Probably not as it seems that is always the kicker. Thanks for the suggestion......they are less than $10 so I will likely buy a pair just to try out.
The link I give for black earphone have volume control for asking galaxy s3
Guys, I thought I would post this here as well so you can get my review for the eartones........
Hey fellow xda members I just wanted to share my take on the iSkin Eartones that I just received today. These are great for anyone who doesn't like in-ear headsets. The fit in your ear is very similar to the apple earbuds which for me was a huge plus because I use my headset mostly for business calls etc while I drive (which in-ear were too unsafe as they block out all outside sound). The sound quality is actually very good for an earbud. There is good lows and highs and there is an included set of foam covers to put over the tips which would give you better sealing of the ear to further enhance the sound for the music junkies out there.
They have some flex in the earbud part which allows it to fit very well in different ear shapes.
The sound quality on the other end of a phone conversation is extremely good according to my business partners.
The only downside for me is that there is no volume control. This is a letdown since the rep I spoke with at iSkin prior to ordering these said to me on two occasions that they had volume control and that it worked flawlessly with the GS3.......not sure where he was pulling that info from but he is wrong.
They are $39.99 for www.iSkin.com
Also, the shipping was super fast. I am in Calgary AB and they shipped form Toronto to me in less than a day!
Feel free to ask me any questions you may have!

Yep........I ordered a pair of those........so we will see how they work and sound. The guys at iSkin said they would fully refund my shipping and price for the Eartones if I didn't like them since they misinformed me about the volume control. I will likely keep them though as they do sound pretty good. But I have my fingers crossed the HTC ones will work for everything and not sound like crap.
Hey guys, I just noticed in THIS thread that Best Buy has an offer going on where if you buy an AT&T or Sprint LGOG you should get a free headset with it.
From what it sounds like, it is a good headset.
I don't know when they started this or how long it will last, but it was confirmed still going on as of yesterday (1/5/2013).
If you bought an OG from Best Buy and didn't get a headset, you should be able to go in with your receipt and ask for the headset (others in the thread have been able to).
I have not been able to get mine yet, but my fingers are crossed.
Got mine today.
It didn't seem like well known information so I wanted to post it here, sorry if this is frowned upon.
HERE is the link to the offer from Best Buy.
Edit..............
You have to be within the 30 days that you purchased your phone.
Also, it is an online promotion, but they can match it in the store.
Just show them the link, the will pull it up.
Have them Google "best buy free headset with optimus g".
Do not know when they started this but I just hit my 30 days with this phone so I doubt I can take advantage of this deal

Another user said they called BB and they said the purchase does have to be within the last 30 days.
Just went to BB and got my free headset (was within the 30-day window). Had to wait over 45min because they couldn't bring this deal up on their own internal website and showing them the site on my phone wasn't good enough. I used their own computer to go to XDA, hit the link provided by bleached45, and showed them the deal was legit.
Well worth the wait. Thanks for posting this deal bleached45! :good:
I got the free headset with my OG when I picked it up for $99 at BB. They miss labeled the price, as it was supposed to be $199 with free headset, but since I caught it they gave me the deal anyways.
The headset I got was a wrap around neck style with ear buds. It was a neat concept, but the audio quality was only good for phone calls. It was horrible for music, which I was hoping to use it for since it was more like Bluetooth ear buds than a normal headset.

Very cool, glad it worked.
Quick question, I got my OG as a gift and have the receipt but it has a family member's name and card number on it, did you need to show them ID or have your card (assuming you got it on a card).
Nope... Just needed my original receipt. They scanned it and it had all the info they needed. Didn't need to show a license or credit card.
Then again, after 45min they may have passed on all that info just to get me out of the store... Lol

Haha, well thanks for letting me know.
If I wasn't out of thanks for the day I would hit it.
i constantly read xda forum for whatever device i have but rarely post. But I had to post a reply to this. I purchased a LGOG about a week ago from BB and no one mentioned headset. i ran out during my lunch break to BB and picked it up. No questions asked...in/out in about 10min. Thanks XDA
i bought my phone on january 2nd and just called them about this, they thought i was crazy and had no recollection of it even when i told them how to find the link offer and they were looking at it they said i was SOL

^^This^^
I used BB's own company computer to click the link provided by bleached45 in the first post to show them the deal was legit. So definitely go to the store.
Also, make sure you go back to the store where you purchased the LGOG. I figured all BBs are the same, but apparently not when it comes to purchasing phones. I went to one store and they told me too bad, I have to go to the store where I purchased the phone.
Not a good deal when you consider their phone price
Wow! $699 unactivated? That's pretty darn expensive, and makes the free $69 headset not worth it.
I got my OG for $579 direct from Ting, and I didn't think there was anything special about that price.
Swooby

I ordered my phone online and unfortunately there is no best buy and the closest one is over an hour away, dont feel like spending 3 hours driving to have the chance of them not giving it to me.
I got mine for the $99 promotion the day after christmas at a best buy about 30 minutes away. I have the receipt. Any chance they can mail it to me? If not I will get it next time im in that part of the valley.
Ah! Y'all are $99 carrier contract buyers. That make more sense.
I bought my OG without a contract through ting.com and pay $25/mo, saving me $65/mo...the price of that free BT headset!
Peace

I don't know, as far as I know, nobody has tried to get them to mail it.
I think your best bet is to go in, most people have reported that when they call about it bb said they couldn't match it, but in store they were able to get it.

okay, I got my parents to say I can go tomorrow or friday so is the music quality any good, or should I stick with my $100 wired headphones, and just sell it for other stuff I want to get?
Just stopped into my local BB they are out but there are some on the truck. Holding one for me when they put out the stock. Manager knew about the offer. Was way cool about it. Love best buy!

Bought my LGOG on 12/22, went in today and asked about the headset, the BB guy couldn't find the ad online, so I brought it up on my phone from the link here in the forums. He said OK no problem. Got me some new earbuds! They sound alright, not great. Actually they seem a little too small in my ears even with the bigger rubber cones. But I'm not going to b***** when they were free! :good:
Are the Beats by dre executives compatible with the GS3? Meaning if the incline mic works with the phone to answer calls control volume and play music?
you should at least do a little search.
it is on the first or second page, a list of compatible headsets.
good luck on finding it. it won't be hard.

I looked at all of them but there is nothing on beats by dre. I read that the powerbeats and Studios don't work. But I was thinking since the executives are fairly new that they might work. I just want conformation on that.

Actually I believe the issue lies in the control talk cable itself. I bought a pair of mixr and had the same issues as everyone else with an Android phone. Apple devices the wiring is done backwards inside the cable. So I got to thinking about reversing but my soldering skills aren't the same. So I thought maybe a new cable, so I found one on ebay, obviously a 3rd party beats knockoff, where it has 2 black rings on the plug and 3 rings where it gets plugged into the phone. And viola they work perfect all features Inc volume.. See the picture I uploaded and u see what I mean

I personally wouldn't buy any beats by dres unless u get a large discount. Like almost half. Otherwise you're being ripped off. But I don't believe any control talk headphones work fully
