hi, i just bought the galaxy note and i'm looking for an earphone with a mic(i don't like in ear monitors)
if there's no such thing, is there a mic extension where i can connect my sennheiser mx471 earphone (something like this one )

Yes, there are such adaptors. You'll find tons of them on ebay. The great thing about the Note is that both Samsung/Nokia and iPhone/HTC adaptors ( and handsfree earphones ) will work on it.
It's pretty cool how they managed to achieve the ultimate earpiece compatibility for the Note.
The compatibility is not 100 % for iphone model cables.
I have not succeeded in making the volume button work on the galaxy not, the mic is okay though.
the point is i don't want to waste money on adapters just to find out they will not work
after some reading i stumbled upon the sony ericsson mw-600, which is compatible with the note

Here's the deal, I have a small collection of gaming/pc headsets(razers/steelseries/trittons all sponsored in my pro gaming period) and only two pair of normal headphones. I use my SteelSeries neckband and headphones sometimes because they have an awesome bass and look cool. There is a microphone hidden in these headphones as well, and I would say there should be some kind of cable that has a 3.5 mic in and audio in and a 4pin 3.5 out for the galaxy S2. So I can use both the audio and the mic.
I used my friend google and I found the following:

Any idea if these work? Somebody has experience with one of these cables? Also, is this really the cheapest solution? 15 buck for a cable on ebay/amazon seems expensive (although its not really an issue, since I can use 500 euros worth of headphones.)

I brought the AT&T version of the Glide and it didn't come with a wired headset. I've tried a headset for a Galaxy S, but the buttons didn't work. Could anyone with the Rogers headset ( I think it comes with one) share the model number, or if anyone else has a working let me know where I can source one?
Thanks!
I have the headset in my hand that you are mentioning but I do not see any model number anywhere to help you out. All I see is a Samsung logo on each ear piece as well as a Large L or R. On the Wire where it splits from 1 to 2 wires (1 for each ear) there is a small Made in China written on it. No other writing can be seen.
Damn, thanks anyway

Good idea except it is slightly more expensive....Depends on the person's budget.
i think you can get a sony one for under 50 dollars torugh ebay. and its prety good. and the model that i have i can exgane the ear plug it self to other earphones.

Interesting I did not know that the PLAY and Forward/Revers works from a Wired headset. That is good to know.
Thanks.
I bought these Samsung earbuds and use them along with Jays Headset Control from the Play store. Thanks to the app the one answer button can handle all music controls and even initiate voice actions.
Here are some from Samsung:
http://www.shopandroid.com/samsung-ehs60-35mm-stereo-headset/11A29A9345.htm
Didn't tried them, but since they're said to be made for the Captivate Glide, they should work.
Finally got around to grabbing the HTC ones and they're working fine. Audio quality is half decent too.
Desire headset isn't working on calls for me. I hear fine but the other side says the sound is terrible.
Hope this helps
Samsung galaxy one and newer Samsung phones use two different 3.5 mm jack
The newer jack like on gs2&3 are more standards. The remote doesn't work because on gs1 it's wired different.
As of today
Samsung
Htc
Sony (not Sony Ericsson)
Use the same Standards 3.5mm jack
So of buy a htc ear headphone it work on all 3 companies
( i don't know about other companies)
The model no of the headset that comes with captivate glide rogers is GH59-10419E.
Any mention of headset in the glide manual talks about micro USB.
(Drowning in google search results, most of which don't apply [Why do they assume if you want an adapter you want a crappy / cheap earbud headset too?]. So posting here to start from a list of those who have a glide and specific experience!)
Messages here seem to indicate that standard 3 connector, 2.5mm cordless phone headsets work. Can anyone confirm?
(I tried a friend's 3.5mm headset, got audio, but only for media not for anything else, per playing with settings / audio. It also has an additional doohickey / adapter where the headphones plug into a mic adapter, which in turn plugs into the 3.5mm jack instead of the headphones, directly - when using that not even media came through.)
(And even when audio came through, the navigator voice didn't come through, as it did not on a bluetooth headset. I can't hear the navigator across the car - how to get it to play to a headset?)
Source of a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter known to work?
Or 2.5mm to micro usb adapter?
Let alone, pc headset, 2 x 3.5mm, to micro usb adapter?
Thanks for any pointers / good search terms to known good working beasties, drowning in search results.
I need yet another crappy headset like I need ... druther just use one I already know and like and adapt it to the glide.
I'm guessing an adapter would need buttons on it for talk (and / or volume?).
I see on amazon there's a straight micro usb to 3.5mm adapter however I suspect it would be audio only (yes?), and worried that since it's a solid doohickey, not two ends separated by wire, that some end would get easily broken.
Advice, thoughts, experiences?
A few days ago I broke my stock earphones, now looking for a cheap replacement, please help me to choose the ones with good quality sound and build.
how to find if a earphone is not compatible with my G3, since I read that most of earphones with 3.5mm jack are not supported.

Except apples one. They don't work for me on my old g3.... But I'm satisfied with my beats studio

I'd recommend just getting another pair of Samsung headphones (others with the same jack will not work )
I've used BT headphones successfully - I had a Jabra stereo headset but I much prefer the simplicity of wires at the end of the day - no need to worry about running out of charge etc.
Does anybody know why other brands (and even other Samsung headsets) will not work with the Apollo?
Now that I've give this phone to my mum, I've warned her not to lose the OEM headphones!!! :cyclops:
Edit:
I should have said if you want a working headset w mic others will not work - I think that you can use headphones only...but then if you get a call the mic on the phone is cut out and they can't hear you speak. It's a bloody nuisance!
Thank you all for suggestions, I bought sound magic es18... they have really hifi output... Really happy with them... I forgot to update here sorry.

You can buy any company blue tooth headset- Samsung phone s supports for all headsets
Hi folks,
My mobile operator has started offering a comprehensive package for international calls, so I'm looking for a decent handsfree that would be comfortable to wear for longer periods of time.
On the PC I use a Plantronics USB headset with a microphone, and I'm wondering if there is something similar that I can plug into the phone via 3.5mm jack?
I have in-ear headphones with mic from Sony that came with Z2, but that is ok for short calls, not for wearing the full day.
I'm not a big fan of bluetooth headsets, they need to be charged and cost more, so my ideal solution would be a wired on-ear headset with microphone, as I'll be sitting at my desk, but instead of using Skype and USB, I'd be using my phone for the voice calls.
Is there such a thing and can you recommend a model?
I see there are a lot of 2.5mm kits like that for DECT phones, but the smartphone has a 3.5mm socket.
Thanks!
Just got a Xiaomi Hybrid IEM. For that price they are a steal!
I am very happy with them, like many others.

Do these have a microphone? It's not clear from the text, but it looks like just headphones.
I'm looking for something similar to Plantronic Supraplus but with 3.5mm instead of USB
Yes, they have a microphone (I don't think there's a version without mic). They also have 3 buttons (multifunctional + volume).
So I have a Samsung Galaxy Note II and it doesn't seem to work with my unbranded headphones (which do work). Is it because the headphones have to be Samsung to be compatible with their phones? Why is this, and is there a way around this?
I was thinking of getting some high quality over-ear headphones, however I'd obviously like them to work with my phone too! Any help appreciated!!
It doesn't have to be.

I've been using Apple EarPods for weeks (just got the Note 2) and it doesn't have any problem. Does the original Samsung earphones the only thing works on your device?
I regularly use Beyerdynamic DT250 headphones which have a 3 pole minijack, and recently purchased a pair of soundmagic e10c which has a 4 pole minijack, both work flawlessly, before that I was using xiaomi piston.
Do you have the original Samsung Note II Cover Protection Shell? It allows only for very slim headphone minijacks. Most headphone plugs are to wide behind the threepole, thus they do not enter the headphone jacket far enough. Try Your headphones without the Samsung Cover Case. If they work, then widen the entry of the Cover Case with a pair of Scissors or something similar.
