Hello, I have a Nokia 5800 which I use for listening to music. I want to buy the Samsung Galaxy i5800, but seeing as listening to music is the primary thing I will be using this phone for, I gotta ask: Does Samsung Galaxy i5800 have something like the Nokia HS-45 headset adapter? Since I'm a new user i cannot post a picture, but if you google images for Nokia HS-45 you'll see what i mean. Does Samsung Galaxy i5800 have anything similar to this device?
this?
you can use this with our phone
Can that be used on the Samsung? I mean, do the play/pause/stop/back/forward buttons work?
Hmm
I am also looking for something similar.
I still can't find a headset adapter with working play/stop/backward/forward buttons. Any help is appreciated. Tried several Nokia headsets, sound works, but controls don't.
Can the music on Samsung i5800 even be controlled with a headset?
I use this bluetooth earphones in which all the buttons works flawlessly:

But don't expect the sound quality to be good with its bundled earphones. Changing the earphones makes the sound a bit better.
i have both nokia 5800 and samsung galaxy 3.... the nokia 5800 headset cannot control the music on g3...
i use nokia bh-214 stereo bluetooth adapter... it can play/pause and fwd/back on the g3.... and the bundled earphones are quite good.... you can even plug any other earphones on it if you want...
Hi everyone,
Can we use this thread to update it with information of headphones with media controls (play/pause/mic/volume) that WORK as is with the phone? Obviously the headphones included with the phone are a given.
Thanks!

I am currently using klipsch S4i, it is special design for iDevices but they release the android one Klipsch Image S4A. I bought mine about 4 months before they released the S4A. You will not disappoint with the sound it produces. You can see review about the S4i on youtube, the sound quality is the same for S4i and S4A. They just specially design for different devices.
I have some cheap sonys. Like $30. Play/pause works and skip. Prev and volume doesn't but no biggie. Important bases are covered.

I am currently using the ibeats that came from the HTC sensation XE on my GN but I am eyeing out on this one. You can also download the app from the marketplace and customize the headset functions to your liking =)
i have the beats by dre ibeats and they work perfectly
Currently, only one button headphones work with android. Three button headphones only work with Apple devices. As i understand, this is a limitation of the Android OS, though i wonder how hard would it be for a dev to patch this functionality.
Most 3rd party players from the market (doubletwist, poweramp) have built-in controls so that you can play/pause/skip/etc via the one single button.
I am using a pair of Shure SE535 with my phone and only my center button works, the other two don't function.

I have the Bose MIE2i earbuds with 3 buttons. The pause/play button works fine but the volume up/down does nothing at all. But they sound great!

S4a has only one button, though it can be assigned multiple commands using the free Klipsch Control software from the market - you can customize the button, including double-press, etc.
I haven't used the controls much yet but they work with the Galaxy Nexus, which was not the case from my old Galaxy S. the sound is quite good from these headphones.

Not true - the iBeats that come with the Rezound work perfectly. Problem is, I can't find any Monster iBeats that have the three button control, all of the ControlTalk ones I find are single button.
Anyone have a link to the iBeats as sold with the Rezound? In Google Music (only app I tested them with), play/pause and track/forward back worked as it should.

Agree, I get mine for 50% off and I love them. They are just.. well amazing.
Got a pair of Sol Republic Amps that work. Three button remote, Play/Pause (Double tap = Next, Triple = Prev), and then volume controls.
I just picked up a pair of Etymotic Hf3's from Best Buy (on clearance for $80, reg $180) and using Klipsch control. Works great! I am pretty sure three Klipsch app works with a lot of headphones.
I think there is another similar app in the market by Jay's...haven't tried that one yet.

fyi who ever tells you to buy the ibeats by Dr. Dre are not doing you a favor. The sound quality on those headphones is terrible. I bought them and returned them within an hour. My $17 Phillips ones sound better then the ibeats. They are the worst headphones I have ever tried. Also they were not defective I had them exchanged as well before I returned them. They don't get loud at all.
I highly recommend this headset. Comfortable and high quality. Works better than expected.

I'm about to pick up a pair of the S4i's (thank goodness for friends who work at Future Shop). Awesome sound, and the centre button works with the GNex (and I'm pretty sure you can customize it with the Klipsch app, or another, just like the S4a).
Bonus of the S4i is that it'll still work to use with my iPod shuffle (relax, I only use it for working out)

I just picked up a pair today from BB an hour away from my location. They were only available there. So far, loving the crispness of these, and just wondering what you did to get the volume control to work?
Btw I bought these because I went through all these headphones and these were the only ones that looked really good at a great price. And you said they worked with all the buttons. If not it's no big deal, I'll just return them and find something else. Plus the bass is really lacking, I read it in the reviews but didn't think it would be this flat
BeatsTours with control talk

Hello,
the ControlTalk (the volume buttons) from my Beats Tour earphones don't work on my galaxy nexus.
I know thats a familiar issues, but that resent me.
Is there any way that the ControlTalk work? I also have root and cwm.
Please excuse my poor english.
No, the control talk is for iPad/iPhone/touch. There are third party apps that will allow you to use the single button mic to control playback functions. I use headset button controller but there are others.
I hear sol republic will soon becoming out with a very Android friendly headset. Klipsch makes a pair as well.

Thank you!
Sol Republic In Ears sounds very interesting!
Do you know if the amps HD work on the Galaxy Nexus?
Because here is written:
There are too many to count but our headphones should be compatible with most Android devices that have 3.5mm jacks

Does anyone know of a headphone adapter with control buttons on it that works with the galaxy note?
I want to be able to skip tracks and change volume while jogging.
I am looking for an adapter that will work with any headphones rather than headphones with built-in controls.
I have seen plenty advertised as working with iphones, but nothing specifically for android.

After a bit more research i have gone for the jabra bt3030. It seems bluetooth is the better option as the controls are standardised.

In general, the headphone with mic and controllers branded "for iphone" work also for android. Of course, it is a bit risky.

Senr from my device using my finger
you can try the Sony Ericsson MW 600 bluetooth, it does what you are asking for and can work with any headphones.
Unfortunately reliability is a little suspect, after a few months of use mine quite simply... died
SE MW600 works great. Been using it since my Galaxy S days 2 years ago.

Really sucks that samsung don't use the iPhone standard for headsets as almost none are available where the volume works.

QFT. Having previously wired custom iphone headsets (and seen other posts regarding it), they will not work on android.
Buy a single-button iphone headset and Headphone Control (or jays headphone app) from the market.
Seriously though, the DAC on the GNote is bad enough that the Bluetooth audio was really not much worse than the headphone out. And I'm an audiophile
Finally please be aware that even though headsets will be marketed as compatible with both only the center button will work. You need Android specific volume controls
Maybe this is not answer you looking for,
But i'm using Poweramp apps and i can use gnote included headset's buttons to control volume, skip track or stop player.
any of the bluetooth solutions work well. I have the sony MW600 and also a pair of sennheiser BT headphones and both have headphone based volume, as well as buttons for pause, fwd, rewind.
just keep the device on max vol and adjust your headphone volume with the buttons.
there is also the new apt-x samsung dongle (hs3000? 300?) but unfortunately the note doesnt support apt-x (yet?)
Jabra BT3030
I use the above mentioned Jabra and it works like a charm...
Thanks everyone for your advice. The jabra bt3030 arrived today (25 euros delivered on ebay in Spain). Just went out for my first jog with it and it worked perfectly. The great thing about this solution is I can use the headphones of my choice.

I was using the Klipsch S4A's (the Android version of S4i's) just fine with my S3 but realized when I switched to Shure 315s (I bought the phone adapter cable by Shure), the mic would not work, and also the phone call would still go to my phone, even with the ear set plugged in. I have quite a few ear sets lying around, so here's a results round up:
OK:
Tjays Four
Klipsch S4A
NOT OK:
Ajays Four
Shure 315 (well, the adapter cable anyways)
Kplisch S4i
ALL of these headsets worked with my S2.
Does my phone have a problem?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this.
Thanks.
Ken
I just realized my Klipsch S5i don't work with this phone, I'm bummed. So the S4a works properly, mic and everything?
coming from galaxy S , i find that samsung jacks is not universal , even some top end brands like grado , bose headphone doesnt work well
be sure to check compatibility issue before you get any headset , not all work perfectly on samsung jacks

Yes, S4A's work bit not s4i's.

I have the same problem with my Klipsch S4i and Sennheiser mm30i, how annoying! All work fine on my HTC desire, S2 just not S3.
Thanks

Ugh, same here. My UE 600vi's worked great on my Galaxy Nexus, but now my mic doesn't work on the GS3. However, the center button still works.
I can confirm most i-Phone centric mic'd headphones (especially the ones with 3 buttons) aren't working. Myself I have a TDK EB950 that exhibits the same characteristics - works for music (the middle button only), fails at calls.
Now using a Belkin Universal mic adapter (single button) with it. Works swell no issues.
I suspect the impedence difference is messing with the part that reads the button signals.
my 600vi is a little bit different
my UE600vi works fine with galaxyS2 but not with S3.
funny thing is both earphone & mic works fine when I'm call someone.
but when i RECEIVE a call (when 600vi plugged in) , suddenly my GS3 works as if there's no earphone. (sounds and mic works from the phone, not my 600vi)
i really can't understand why,, i'm using Korean galaxyS3 though. Asked samsung about this, but the reply was "go ask logitech!!!" lol
Since the S4A earphones work, I would assume that the S4A (II)'s will work. If anyone has purchased this new revised set, I'd like to know if this is the case, I might be purchasing some soon.
I have a pair of Audiofly AF45M's that work great. However they do not have a three button remote in-line, only one button for answering calls/pausing/skipping tracks. The mic seems to work well, none of my calls have complained and the few friends I asked said my voice was clear even in noisy environments. I must say that they are the best in ear headphones that I've owned (well should say that they're the nicest pair that I've bought compared to freebies). I know this isn't a thread for IEM reviews but I only mention it because from what I read on head-fi they are a brand new company out of Australia and are making some great products.
I had a pair of Ultimate Ears 350vm's from Costco but I didn't even make any calls with them because I didn't like the sound quality compared to my Audiofly's. So I returned them, the volume slider and the push button seemed to work, but cannot comment on the microphone functionality.
Right now I'm using a pair of Brainwavz M5 (also have the M4) with mic and one button and they work perfectly fine. Also tried the Shure 215 with mic cable (again the one button version, not the iPhone one) a few weeks ago and those also worked without any problems.
There seems to be a hardware thing in the S3 which cause "Made For iPhone" headsets (most notably those with volume buttons) to not function properly...
True!
I've just tested with my Klipsch Image One and S4i. When I call someone, everything works just fine, mic and end call by the center button.
So it must be a Software issue.
Thanks,
Adler
I have the Shure E215 with the phone cable (single button), and it's worked fine, both with stock and CM10. The triple button cable is wired differently.
You're right. I also have a Beats Studio with single button and it also works fine. But since my headphones with triple buttons also work when I initiate a call it must be a software problem.

Hey curious, can you say which belkin universal mic adapter you're using? My powerbeats mic doesn't work and I'm desperate to find an adapter that will restore that functionality to them on my s3. Thx!

More Headset tests
First off, Thank You all, for all the helpful info! I have a set of (awesome) Skullcandy Heavy Medals, and a set of Skullcandy 50/50's, and also a set of some type of Logitech earbuds, all have 3 button mic's, None work as mic's on My Galaxy S3, They all work as headphones, but if trying to answer a call, they need to be unplugged, and plugged back in, to hear a voice, but still no mic, and they all worked on My Galaxy S2, and another S2 HD Lte, (All on Bell mobility Canada), and also worked well on My Nexus 4. The Oem samsung headset works great, including mic and volume up/down, and answer button. Also I have a set of Skullcandy Ink'd, with a single button on mic, and they work fine on S3 as well. My S3 is an Unlocked SGH-i747M originally a Rogers wireless Canada phone.
Thanks again, and I hope this helps someone! :cyclops:
