Any kind of headphones with a Talk Controller or microphone will not work with Sony Ericsson devices. Sony did something to the AUX port and its connections are inverted or something. I read a while back when i bought my pair of Dr.Dre beats.
I just got my LiveSound Headset and it does the same thing on my Asus Transformer like the DreBeats did on my Sony Ericsson. Great set of headphones Much better then Dr.Dre Beats and cheaper too.

I solved the problem.i sold my arc s and i bought galaxy s 2.Now i'm very happy with my phone and headphones.
Thanks for reply @rsingh612

WoW what a solution

iPhone+BlackBerry and SE+Nokia are using different standards for pin-outs on headphone jacks, so you have to change either headset, or headphones..
i hate all those companies for doing this kind of thing to us

Yeah...
I think I'm going to tosh around a few hundred bucks for a new phone, because I don't like Arc's default ringtones.

Is it so hard to use the Standard SE cable with mic/switch and plug in whatever headphones to that? For crying out loud! That's what I do and EVERY single pair of headphones that had issues does not do it if you plug them in that way! For now though, I found some nice ear buds that were for the xperia pure, I use them with the standard cable and the sound quality is fantastic.

There is a APK somewhere in SYSTEM folder that detects the unsupported headphone have someone tried to delete it and test it? Atleast we can get the headphones to work

Would this problem also occur when using my own headphones? (original iBeats, not from htc)

try to find a neutral stereo plug, they're included in marshal or urbanears headphone

make an adapter... every manufacture only invert, and change the position
(download electrodroid from market, theres many port mapping)
re-route using adapter
sorry for bad english

There is a software solution for this?
say, a modding or something?
or just selling the same S Arc? lol
thank you

u can try to modify hardware

I ordered an MH1 LiveSound Headset in white for 19.99GBP and 1.99GBP shipping off eBay yesterday and they came today. The flat anti tangle cable is way better than the iBeats cable & the mic/control unit is a better quality than the iBeats, the sound quality is way better than the stock black headset that comes in the box of the Arc S and I would say it's on a par with the Audio quality of the iBeats. I've got the LiveKey set up to launch Play Music via LiveKey Launchee that's available in the Play Store, I might set it up to control Track ID or FM Radio as the Music Control feature on the LiveView kind of makes it obsolete, as there is no propper Music Control on the MH1s other than Volume & Play/Pause using the middle button.
I chose the white MH1s only on the grounds that they go nicely with my white Arc S. I tried using the white headset that came with my X8 but the sound was really poor compared with the black headset that comes with the Arc S.

[Q]Xperia arc audio output for Headphone

Hey all.
I want to know which is the max output impedance (Ohms) supported by arc.
I want to buy a AKG headphone with a 55 Ohms impedance, someone told me that is too much for smartphone. Really ?

No.
You can use it without any problem.
I have an AKG K414p and it sounds gorgeous if you ask me
Sent from my almighty Xperia Arc S!

Thanks you, quality is like when you plug it with your PC ?
I want to buy the AKG K271 Mk II
and they're difference with your 414p, 55 Ohms vs 32 Ohms(K414p)

For me i feel it better than when use on pc but not so loud. (I don't have a proper soundboard)
Our phones can hold around 72ohms easy, based on its SOC structure.
But i think that may cause some battery drain.
I recommend to you buy an pre amp like Fiio E5, which is discrete,cheap and powerfull.
Maybe this will deliver a better audio experience with high end headphones
Cheers!

Wired Headphones with remote control

Hello,
I've bought the SGS2 a few days ago. The headphones have a quite nice sound.
Although play/pause and next track aren't OK for me. I'd need a possibility to
control the volume.
Could you pls recommend an alternative (and a wide spread one , so I could find
that also in my country) wired headset, which would support also volume control
on the SGS2.
I have been searching on this forum, but I didn't find a clear answer, rather just
workarounds or talks about workarounds...
Thank you!

Not sure myself on what you could do, but you could try using JKay's app (must be purchased through play store and have framework) to enable "Volume Buttons Toggle Sound" maybe that might fix your problem? I have wired earphones myself with the mic and volume bit and I can change volume by pressing and change track by holding in.
Hopefully maybe someone else will post something helpful but this is what I would do. Good luck!

Hello D3_ and thanks for your reply...
Your link points to a different topic - it is about people who want to keep the microphone of S2 and want to attach another headphones
(which don't have a microphone). I just accidentally found a semi-solution for me - I just looked at the S3 headphones of a friend and I
was very surprised to find out, that there are 3 buttons - one long button for volume + / - and another button for accepting phone calls.
I have immediately tested it and everything works under AstroPlayer, which is the player I'm currently using.
But unfortunately not everything is that simple as it sounds. It seems that Samsung makes these headphones only in white, as my
friend's one are white, despite of the fact that his phone is pebble blue. And my SGS2 is noble black, so you can imagine that I
wouldn't want white headphones :-/
I'll try to check Nokia headphones these days...

I have the white ones, as they came with my Galaxy Tab 7 +.
Apart from being white (and I'm not snobbish enough to really care), they're perfect.
Great sound quality, volume controls & on/off/skip track functionality...

Get a HTC RC E160 wired headset, all buttons work (though the left and right buttons changed function when I upgraded from GB 2.3.5 to ICS 4.0.3; they were skip in GB, but they became volume with ICS). I cut the earpieces off one set and soldered a 3.5mm stereo inline jack socket in their place so I could use nicer headphones with Mic and headset controls.

I personally LOVE Jay's headsets. I've got a pair of the A-JAYS earbuds with remote and in line mic, awesome sound quality, but my model has a one button remote. No big deal, their companion Android application provides additional functionality that let's you click&hold and do other patterns for different functions like volume and seeking. I do know they make a 3-button version too, but typically it costs $20 more. Available online in North America and most of Europe.

It looks like a black version is available: http://www.ebay.it/itm/160843796626#ht_1366wt_1165. These are Samsung part number GH-59-11721A / EHS64AVFBE. The white ones are GH-59-11720A / EHS64AVFBE.

I got V-Moda M80 from amazon few weeks ago and couldn't be happier with my purchase. They are very well built and sound quality is even more impressive. But the feature that helped me make my decision was the build in mic for receiving/making calls.
If you have the money go for them you wont be disappointed

Yes ,but you need the htc solo version
(they only make one color white). Htc version works on samsung Nokia lumia
Sony as volume.
Nokia purity hd also works on Samsung too
(make sure your box does not say made for iPhone or iPod)

darkstar wrote just few posts above yours he has a pair.
I have a-JAYS One+ and I can not say anyhting bad about them. Great sound clarity and good basses, can be tweaked as to press/doublepress timing etc with their free apk which provides multiple options for controlling them better. Simply great piece of earphones. Mic is working great too. and above all, tangle free cable and great chinch is giving great user experience for me too.
Either these or more expensive versions will do, though Klispch S2 are great (tried them out, but settled with a-JAYS) etc... I tossed original earphones in the trash, seeing total failure Samsung is exercising when they include such POS with so high end phone. Same goes for S3, even though you see people posting how great those are. It is not so for me, and I tried them just to be sure I'm right. 3 of my friends has these with their SGS3 and I tried them - shallow sound with no good fidelity for me (phone calls are ok, but calling party is sounding like cheap radio for me). Well, guess what? They tried my a-JAYS One+, Creative Aurvana buds too, my Sony MDR-Z700 (original) headphones and even my old SE in_ear HPM70 short corded buds - all far better then POS Samsung is including with their top gamma phones.

Seems to me they are exactly the same. Take a look at the packaging here.

If it's Sony you must have, then you can't go wrong with the MDR-1R.

Not sure if i tested the same pair of sony headphones but they look the same and to be honest they didnt sound that great but then since it was a demo they could have been dodgy.
I bought a pair of AKG headphones in a local shop near my university and they sounded as good as the monster ntune headphones (which i also tested) and for less than half the price.

I tried both but i personally prefer sbh20 as its very costly and looks good.

I bought long time ago the Motorola S305 (Bluetooth), in a WT19a that i have and in my PC it have lag of about half a second, i tried it in the Moto G, the lag is imperceptible...

I just tried out my old Defy Mini headset, the button works
1 press - music starts
2 press - next song
