Hi.
I'm having a problem with my galaxy nexus. When I'm listening music with the samsung headphones (the ones that came included with gnex) sound is OK.
But, if i use any other headphones (tried with 2 different model of sony headphones) i get a terrible sound, I don't ever hear the singer's voice.
When i press the answer button of my sony headset, sound is perfect.
Does anyone know how to fix it (without hold press answer button obviously )
This happened to me in 4.1.1 bigxie rom and aokp milestone 6. Franco kernel
Thank you.

An isolated issue as far as I can see , I currently run Paranoid and Lean kernel . Use a sony headphone(not a headset) , but its crystal clear sound that comes , Can you check with any other headset/headphone apart from Sony ?

+1 here. Ok with hearphone that comes with the phone. Terrible with a Philips sport headset that works great with ipod.
4.1.1 with franco kernel and BEATS audio
Could it be that it's not plugged in properly? Other headphones work fine for me...
Your headset is wired differently and shorting the speakers which is why you don't hear the singers voice.

Could it be because my philips headsets are "made for iphone"?

Confirmed. I didn't think about it because I tried with tow different models from Sony.
But I just tried with the headphones that came with a Blackberry ... It works great.
Thanks for your replies.
Try plugging it completely, then take out the earphone slightly. You may get it to work this way. I used to do this to get earphones to work on my Nokia dumb music phone.

They do work on the Vibrant. As will any of the four pin headphones for the iPhone.
Ya I just bought the Klipsch Image S4i and they do not work on the vibrant... Im pretty sure a software workaround can work... I wouldn't know how to do it though... Any chance someone can write up some quick code for this?

The G1 had the same problem when it came out. It turned out to be software related.
The Vibrant is designed to work with any four pin headset. Alternatively you can get an adapter from Samsung that goes from the four pin plug on the phone to an in-line volume control/microphone with a three pin port on it.http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EMC40AONMEBSTD
Is there a link available for this software fix?
The volume controls and the fast forward and rewind would only be able to work with a software workaround. As far as listening to music goes, it tuns out Samsung switched the ground and microphone pins AND the laft and right pins. And because of that I have to hold down the mic button to be able to listen to music and still it would be backwards. Im going to either make a 4pin female-4 pin male adaptor or open up the S4i remote (really easy) and switch them around in there.

The software fix is the android 2.2 (Froyo) update. It hasn't been released yet but should be available in the next couple weeks.
Zaggs Smartbuds, they work with mixzing and the new powerAmp.

Sorry if this is an old post, but I just wanted to know if the controls on the V moda Remix Remote really work with the vibrant or is it just one of the buttons for answering calls? I am planning on buying the headphones. I would also like to know if the mic is compatible as well. Thanks in advance
Blackberry headphones work great on vibrant, nice audio

I'm also looking for a set of wired ear buds with an inline microphone. I'm running Macnut R12 and was at yodabashi camera this weekend, none of the iphone headphones with microphones would work (Sony, Sennheiser, etc). :-(
Meridian is the answer.
What I've found is that any headphones with an answer call button works but I prefer using Meridian with my earbuds because if you go into the options and select "use headset buttons" you can get play/pause, skip and previous functions all from that one button by quickly double pressing for skip, pressing once then waiting a second before pressing again for previous and one press for play/pause. Works flawlessly with me and you don't have to worry about getting headphones with all 3 buttons since 1 button gets the job done.
Hey do you know if there is a way of backing up a playlist and saving it on the SD card or computer? I hate going through and making a new playlist everytime I flash a new rom or something. Thanks man......and I use Meridian because of you. I ride a motorcycle everyday to work listening to music now. It's so easy to move between tracks with the Mic button. Thanks again.

Hi - I just got my Roc Nation headphones a bit back, and the mic on them doesn't work, nor the volume buttons. I'm running CM 7 RC 4 right now on my T-Mobile G2. No one can hear me when I answer the phone, but I can hear them. Anyone have this issue before?
I have the same problem Droid X - Apex ROM. I didn't expect the controls to work because it was made for an iphone, but it recognizes a mic is plugged it because it turns off the main mics. I'll have to find someone with an Iphone to check to see if the mic is just broke.
checked other apps that record audio, sound works through the mic on those, just not on phone calls
none of the samsung made headset adapters work in the sgs ii to pause skip etc.
i just got my first iphone headset adapter from ebay and it does work to pause etc. on the sgs ii..
so apparently samsung change the pinout/wiring to iphone standard vs the different samsung std as too many people complained about it on the sgs i

Can anyone else confirm this? I can't get it to work. They will allow me to pause/play only in Fedes Music app alpha v4 however, so clearly the headphones can't be broken. Is there some setting I need to switch on that I am missing?
My SG2 is brand new and unrooted.

Holding will not skip track for me, however if you got villainrom and tweaks, a doubleklick will do it.

The double clicking works for me every now and then. I'm trying to understand the error myself, it's as if you have to get the timing right, but that sucks if that's the case.
I hope more people experiment and reply back to this thread, double clicking only works occasionally but not when I most need it (jogging) grrr.
Double and triple click also works with poweramp. The headset adapter that I bought for NS SGS doesn't works with my SGS2. Looks like they've changed the connectors for mic and stereo oder something like that. I only get a good sound when I push the play/pause Button in the headset adapter.

Its true, I found the headset supplied with the SGS2 to function like this - somewhat. The recognition of your various clicks is not very reliable though... There's a high chance it'll do something other than what you wanted.
And any other Samsung headsets from older models will not work at all.
my i8910 headset doesn't work at all...
Hi
Are there any headphones / earphones which have a remote control for music control. There are loads of them for the iPhone, but any of them that is compatible with the SGS2?

I'm using "Headset Button Controller" to control a pair of iPhone headphones.
It only works with the center button, but it supports single/double/triple key presses. So it controls: start/stop, and advance to the next song, as well and answer/disconnect incoming calls.
If u r looking for bluetooth ones, just make sure they support AVRCP.
If u r looking for wired ones, most of those vol+/- buttons won't work, but yes, still are compatible.

Posted this on the other thread. Might be of interest to you:
I have a pair of Beats by Dre with Control Talk (for iphone/ipod) and the functionality is the same. The play/pause button works but the vol up/down buttons don't.
Also, I have a pair of Shure 215. They are more bass-prominent than "signature Shure" sound but they don't muffle mids and highs like the Beats do. Anyway, I found these from Earphonesolutions after I got a SGS2.
SHURE SE215A ANDROID & BLACKBERRY COMPATIBLE EARPHONES
(not letting me post a link due to my low post count)
The description says works with "most Android phones" so I guess they're not guaranteeing anything. Too bad I got a pair of those without the buttons before I got the phone. But I thought it might interest some people.
HTC headphone are working great (with all buttons).You can find them anywhere on the internet..
STIL...if i remember well,they are fully working with certain kernels.
Ițm using Nimphetaminețs kernels
I use the Zagg Smartbuds witch works great.
I have a set of the bose ear bud headphones that worked unbelievably on my HTC HD2's and the answer button worked too. with the sII, nothing buttons work and the volume is pretty low.
could an app fix that?
Hey, found this piece of gadgetry - Etynomic MC2. Looks promising, any ideas from anyone about how these are. Apparently they have an Android remote.

I've had the old school Etymotics back in the past, they were great sounding, especially in the high end and mids. However, Etymotics are known to skim on the low end, so if you are a bass thumper, I would avoid unless you can tune the EQ like in Poweramp.
Not sure about the remote working with Android, I've had good customer experience with them, so I think what is listed on their site is true. Though I would email them beforehand to make sure.
Sorry double posting
I am using SE MW600, it can skip to the previous or next track, play and pause, show you the song title, and also show you the phone no of the incoming or outgoing call. The sound quality is good. you should try it out.
I heard Klipsch S4i works well .. I dont have so I cant confirm just browse through the forum you will get it
Hey Guys,
After I updated my phone to official JB, the sound quality got really bad. When I play a music you can't hear the bass properly and I can hear a cracking/hissing sound in between. This happens when my earphones are connected to the phone, I have tried many earphones (including iphone ones) but the problem still remains. Although the problem is not there when I am connecting my Bose mie2i earphones or Beats studio headphones.
Any suggestions?

Try with factory reset if you are not rooted or even rooted but not in recovery...be sure to save all your important things from the phone to your pc ...if it wouldn't help then download zero infinitys soundmod if you are rooted an flash this...you have to search it in Google or just flash renovate Rom it has the latest sound mod update...
