Can someone confirm that for sgs2 it would be compatible with the many iphone compatible ones out there?
For the first gen sgs it is only compatible with the nokia ones, which is very limited.
My Griffin iTalk adaptor has worked and samsung bundle some headphones with only one button so I can only presume most iPhone compatible buds will also work.

Seems to work fine with a set of ipod head phones I just got of ebay. Microphone works and the click button pauses.

@jenkinson6a:
does your headphone have only one button or are there some more (volume control or something like this)? If there are some: do they also work?

Just tried my old HTC headphones with three buttons. Forward, back and play/pause/call answer. Worked just as they should so some with a volume control should work perfectly too.
that sounds great! thanks!

I'd say it depends on your price range but I love the Klipsch s4i [http://www.amazon.co.uk/Klipsch-S4i...?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1304553404&sr=8-1]. They're a good range with a nice bass to them.
If you want something a little cheaper you could go for some Sennheisers but they can get a little muddy and the bass is a little overpowering at times meaning you miss some of the highs.
Failing that just get something like a Griffin SmartTalk [http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/smarttalk] that will allow you to plug whatever headphones/earphones you want and still have the audio control/hands free. It's what I'm using!
I have a pair of dr dre beats with inline controls. The volume buttons do nothing while the middle button will pause only.
There is no way of changing track.
Hope that helps. Thanks.

Anyone know a cable converter that will work for the Galaxy S3 (like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-5mm-iPhon...e-Samsung-HTC-LG-/140574981373#ht_3686wt_1163)
I have Klipsch S4i headphones that have volume control for the iPhone only. I want to use these headphones with FUNCTIONAL volume control with the Galaxy S3.
If you find one, let me know. This is one of my major gripes with Samsung. I managed to get headphones working with my Samsung Galaxy S using a Nokia headphone remote control, but this doesn't work on the SIII.
Why can't they just use the same standard as everyone else.
Or possibly sell an adaptor, and educate their store staff - went to the popup Samsung store in Spitalfields Market (London) today and they had no idea what I was talking about. The sales assistant finally admitted that his headphones don't work with his S2 either. But was clueless as to how to help.
?!?!
this i would really like!
i`ve got a pair of beats headphones and they did not work at all with my first sgs
but now with the s3, the centre button works, answering calls, pausing and skipping tracks, and the mic also works, but the volume doesn`t...
Yeah the S4i also has a working center button but no functioning volume control (which is what I mostly use...don't really care about a mic)
The other adapter I looked at is called Fiio LU2 but I have not seen anyone specifically use it for the SG3.
http://www.fiio.com.cn/product/index.aspx?ID=38&MenuID=020303
still nothing?
Hey,
I have just brought the Fiio adapter,
ill let you know about the results

LU2 doesn't work
Hi there, I just bougth the fioo lu2 cable and it doesn't work with the s3. I'm sending it back to amazon. I have sony headphones and even for me everything works except the volume controls. With the lu2 connected, nothing works and the audio is all "push-pull" (I hope that is how you say that in english).
So don't buy it!

Yeah it's nice, but for 30$ I think I can buy a pair of headset as good as my Sony.
Btw,yesterday I try using them again and another thing I noticed is that even if the sound quality is waaaaay better with my Sony, the volume is much more lower than the included Samsing's. So it's not only a matter of the voulme button not working. And today I'm back with the Samsung's...

Yeah, I wont mind paying $30 to get my Pro's working properly with my sweet phone..
Hmm...the ones that come with the S3 have volume control. I hope some headphone manufacturers can reverse-engineer it. I think it has to do with how the parts of the jack are arranged. Because I know on the iPhone the ground part is switched.
Klipsch S4i Reference w/ Mic
I just tried using my Klipsch S4i Reference w/ Mic headphones and the center button + ear buds work but the volume and microphone do not work. I'd appreciate it if anyone discovers an adapter that converts iPhone headphones to work with the Samsung Galaxy S III. Anybody know why it is this way? I've compared the Samsung headphone jack to the Kilpsch ones and I don't see much of a difference...

well, I can change tracks in power amp with that button click option,not in the normal player. In that, the centre button plays/pauses the track.
How did you manage to change the volume on the s3?
10.00 adapter
For 10.00 you can buy the Meelec ADPTR-TRRS-35. I would post the link, but I cant because I'm a new user. If you just type it in to Google, it'll show up. Also, if you're good with soldering, you can buy the tips and solder them yourself. I bought gold plated and its lasted me years with my original galaxy.

Why does it say on the site ``This adapter will not enable the mic/volume buttons of a 3-button Apple compatible headset to work with non-Apple devices``?
I am toying with taking the buds off my iphone headphones ( i like the buds not the in ear stuff) and soldering them to the samsung cable... i know it might be sacrlidge to do so with more expensive headphones but... dangerous times... drastic measures and such.....
I have a rogers s3 rooted running CM 10 and the headphones NOW work. Function keys all working correctly So this was clearly a software limitation.

While I was in Samsung country last month (Seoul), I went to a few headphone/audio retail shops which let you test out almost ANY brand of headphones you'd like--and apparent this has been a big issue for Samsung users (since most volume control + mic headphones out there are built to work for and certified for use with Apple). One method they taught me (aside from rooting and hacking ROMs), was to download this app called "JAYS". This app will somehow allow the microphones to work on many brands (I use Sennheisers personally) whereas it would not work before due to the different in impedance. The app also creates shortcuts using the working center button, allowing short/long keypresses to do quite a lot (i.e. short press + long press will lower volume, double short press will skip tracks, etc) by turning the center button (which works on MOST headphoens) into a morse code-like button.
I have yet to find a ROM out there that allows my Sennheisers (MM80i, MM70i) to work with the volume buttons, but I've been happy with the JAYS app.
Hello,
My brother gave me his old BOSE OE2i's and they're nice but the volume up and down buttons do not work because they're originally designed for the iphone and from my understanding apple uses a different pin layout of their 3.5mm connectors. I would love to be able to use the volume up and down buttons, as well as the microphone. The only working button is the middle play/pause/skip button.
FiiO LU2 Cable is the only thing I've found so far but apparently it doesn't make the volume up and down buttons work so that's a pass.... I know you can solder the cable but I don't want to really risk damaging the cable. If anyone knows of any iphone to galaxy s3 headset converters please let me know!
Thanks,
Zealex.
If the headset was originally made for iphone then you can forget it, the volume up/down signal from a certificated/original headset are different as from for example the i9300 original headset. the original headset from the S3 is not even working on a lg smartphone.
and for this no adapters exist

I am using too a Bose AE2I with my S3. You can work around this issue with a software as Headset Button .
When you push the central button of the Bose 4 times, the sound starts from low level and increase progressively. You select the volume by pushing the button once again.
This is not perfect by its ok for my usage as sometime I also simply use the s3 volume up and down button.
Bummer that such a converter exists, thanks for the replies guys! Blows that there aren't any headphones that can use the volume controls on the s3... :/

Can you suggest a wired headphone (NO bluetooth) with mic & volume buttons that works with OnePlus One? I am in US.
A little background
I am coming from Galaxy S4. I used Bose wired headphone with three buttons & mic. On Galaxy S4 the mic, pause/play buttons worked. The volume up and down buttons did not work.
On OnePlus One, the pause/play button works. However, the mic does not work. I can hear the other party but they cannot hear me. I was not expecting the volume buttons to work and they do not - which is fine.
Thanks in advance.

They really are a very nice and affordable pair of headphones, which indeed sound _really_ nice.
Although only one of the three remote control button works, so you cannot change volume with it, you can pause/play, answer calls and skip to next track though (using the working button). The mic works flawlessly.
I would still recommend these headphones to anyone, but you really have to make sure, you do not buy a knockoff product (I bought mine from ibuygoo.com and they're legit)

Hi,
How does the microphone performs on Pistons 2? I picked up Samsung EHS64 based on good review on head-fi.org, directly from amazon (not some cheap-fake marketplace seller), sound is amazing, mic is also clear, but buttons don't work even with the headset controller app.
