I dont see why they wouldn't, I've been looking at these:
http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheise...ivate_headsets_mobile_music_502841?Open&row=2
But ouch at the price, same with those Klipsch ones, wow!
Just done a bit more research and I dont think the Klipsch ones will work with anything not Apple.
Image S4i FAQs
Will the Image S4i work with any cell phone?
The Image S4i is designed to work seamlessly with the iPhone 3GS. It will work with the iPhone 3G and first generation iPhone, but with limited functionality. The S4i’s volume up and down feature will not work on these older products. Because the S4i features an Apple chip, we cannot guarantee what level of functionality it will have with other cell phone brands.
dam thats a real shame, any how those headphones had top reviews and customer ratings. I know its a bit steep but worth a bit more i think.
I'll let you know how I get on with the Sennheiser's on this thread in good time.. anything you find out post here too please... I'm not happy at all with the set that are included so eager to upgrade asap.
guys dont waste money on them,.
Get the NuForce NE-7M
they are awesome headphones and the it has a mic built in
for half of the price, people say best IEMs for under $50 along with the Imetal 590s which you should also look at. as they both sound as good as more expensive headphones
Thankyooooo!
Most important accessory be the handsfree and you've just solved it for me
hope the button to answer calls works.. I dont mind not having volume control
They are good for Bass music so everything apart from classical
for something less bassy get the Maximo IP-HS2.
Another vote for the nuforce - they sound better than the klipsch - well worth it and the button works as does the Mic...

It will ba a pair of NuForce NE-7M for me too!!!

i am looking at headphones also.. where's the best place to order the nuforce-ne-7m from? how would they compare to say the sennheiser cx-500's?
nevermind.. ordered them from the nuforce amazon.com site... be interesting to see what they are like..

SKs are really quite bad, if your used to cheap headphones then they will be ok sounding but if u heard NE7/NE6 or soundmagic pl50 or maximo im590/hs2 then you would never go back.
I got the (Logitech) Ultimate Ears MetroFi 220vi
They work perfectly as they only have 1 single button:
- Press: Accept/End call or Play/Pause music while playing.
Great bass and an acceptable (sealed) in-ear fit (there are 3 sizes, I needed the largest)

Can anyone confirm a set who still are able to change number and answer calls for the Desire?

Regards the Nuforce, just to check, they provide identical controls to the original ones that come with the handset?
I figured I let my loss be to the benefit of the forum. I bought the dre ibeats can confirm that they do not work with the Atrix at all. i also have the first generation beats by dre that don't work as well. I know there are newer models of the large ones so I don't know if it would be the same for all of them. I am getting the bose MiE2 later tomorrow, and i will tell you guys if they work. If any one else has tried getting high quality sounding headphones to work with the Atrix please chime in.

Lol I'm not trying to be a troll or anything but Bose and Beats By Dre are NOT high quality sounding headphones. Try some Klipsch or Shure.
Best way to no troll is simply to say what headphones you think are better. maybe say why and provide a model number for people to look it up. Thanks in advance if you take the time to provide the information. I think it would prove very constructive to the thread.
P.S. After some preliminary searching the shure's that would work are the 100 series and are of lower quality. I used to have 200 series. The Klipsch are pretty much the same. All the best ones only control apple products. I'm hoping to be proven wrong so i can buy great headphones.
Hmm.... i don't recall the headphone jack actually supporting a microphone input as well. Mind if i ask why you're searching for such headphones?
Not sure if they have any headphones with a microphone.... but i'm quite fond of Sennheiser's offerings. I have the CX 300 noise cancelling earbuds, and while i don't use them very often for listening to music (Unlike the odd people i see driving down the highway with the telltale white earbuds in their ears.... idiots... both for the obvious reasons, and because Apple's earbuds blow), the times i do i really enjoy them. They sound great.

I'll take a look. To answer your question. I take public transit to and from college. I hate hearing people on the train. I also hate the interruption of a call where I have to take off my studio headset. I would rather have a small pair that allow to answer the call, and then get back to what I was doing quickly.
Guys seems that this headset works with Atrix..
http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/U...s/ci.Motorola-OH20-US-EN.productCompatibility
considering on buying one of this? did someone tried?
I can confirm that the RF3 ENVi Natural Wood Stereo Earbuds microphone works with the Atrix. Very good sound quality as well, better than some Klipsch s2s I had!
I can confirm that the bose mie2 doesn't work either.
whoo hoo!

His app seems to work for me. Using Altec Lansing uhp336 (rebadged Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3) with the cable for the Ultimate Ears Triplefi 10vi and the button and mic appear to work.
They aren't the top of the line, but the mic on these skullcandy Full Metal Jacket headphones work well for me. w ww.skullcandy.com/shop/fmj-shoe-blue.html
And they sound great for the price.
I'll probably use them very rarely and would like something cheap (<$15). Any suggestions?

I'm about to buy the motorola OH20 model. On ebay we can find it for 10 bucks.

Just so you know, on the skullcandy headphones, you'll need the headphone button control app for the in-line headphone button to control your music.
FYI, tested BOSE MIE2i headset - mic works, the buttons do not. I tried the above mentioned Headset app, but no luck with buttons either. This sucks a bit :/
meelectronics m11p work fine on my atrix
any comment on how some of the known functioning (mic and buttons) headphones/earbuds are for running and working out? I'd like to put my atrix in place of my ipod sometimes while running but I hate the earbuds coming loose and having to constantly adjust them.
For reasons that don't matter here, I got a set of Klipsch s4i earphones/mic.
Klipsch said up front the control buttons will only work with the iPhone line, says there's a magic ichip actually in the control stick.
So while none of the buttons (NONE AT ALL) work on the Atrix, the sound quality, clarity and definition, is astounding, better than a lot of expensive audio gear I've heard over the years, and the mic functions 100% on calls as well.

How's the bass on the RF3's? Thanks.
I recently got Philips SHH4507 handsfree. I got it as a present. But this doesnt work with my Samsung Galaxy I9100G I mean, I am able to hear through the earphones but the mic doesn't work nor does the volume controls work!! I am so disappointed. Actually this headset seems to be optimised for iphone, ipad & ipod. Please help me..............
What could I do??
Also please suggest me a good headset OEM or IEM optimised for very good music listening experience on I9100G. Reasonably priced!!
Dude you just wrote it there that it's for iPod/iPhone/apple stuffs

check out these not bad klipsch s4i and sound quality just perfect for price range otherwise i would always use Sennheiser can be pricey but well worth every penny spent £295 for ones i use in nightclub while dj`ing and never looked back but to be honest i woudnt spend so much for my phone and i think the samsung ones good enuff for everyday use (just my opinion)
This one works fine with GT-I9100:

What about Klipsch Image S3 Headphone? Do you think they are equally good? S3 is priced lower. My budget seems to be in that range (of Kilpsch S3)
I used Philips Tapster Bluetooth Headphones with my S2, it's perfect!!
Mine's got a Philips SHE8005. These are in-ear type with a volume slider, mic and a button which acts as either to answer/end an incoming call and a pause/forward button for your music app. The wire's also rubber-coated to give you a firm grip on it.
Looks like a good buy!!

Sorry mate, I got this last year from a local music store here... no idea where to get it in your area though
to the op, i think the mic and ground cables are switched on iphone connectors you should try switching them if you want, just google
Hey. Recently got a new job and while working I can listen to music. So I've been looking for some decent headphones (on/over the ear only, no earbuds or behind the head types). Looking to spend around $80-100
I'd like them to be comfortable for at least a few hours. I'd like a mic, too. Volume controls don't have to work, but I'd like a play/pause button. Isn't there an app that can make buttons on your headphones work with the phone?
I've been looking at the Klipsch Image ONE's. Look pretty nice, look comfortable, but no idea if the mic works with the GSM, or the controls.
Saw the Sennheiser PX 200-II i, which look a little flimsy, but I'm still considering them.
And these Marshall Majors I can't link. ;p
I also saw the Hesh 2, and Sol Republic's On Ear Tracks.
If anyone has any input on these, or wants to throw some new ones out there, that would help a lot. Just want to make sure I get something with decent sound, a working mic and at least a play/pause button. I'll consider Wireless/Bluetooth ones too.
Thanks, guys.
Just from browsing forums people seem to like the Klipsch S4A ear buds. They come with an android app for the button on the ear buds.

Yeah, I know. I did lots of browsing. But I said I'm not looking for earbuds. Mentioned that in the title. Thanks, though. I'll edit my original post to clarify more.

My mistake then, I was thinking about android controls and the Klipsch S4 was the first thought that popped into my head.
Ive just bought the RAZER electra headset in black, and i can say they are the best on ear headphones ive ever owned! over here they were about £50 so im not sure how much that is in dollars!
Really good trebble, nice middle tones and the bass is brilliant when turned up! it comes with two 3.5mm jack to jacks (the headphones have a 3.5mm out on them that you can lock the jack to jack in) one is just a straight cable, the other is one with a built in mic.
Unfortunately there is no Play/Pause function. But im sure you could program the volume buttons to pause and play when you held them down for 3+ seconds? like the good old sony's walk-man phones!
Let me know if you need any help!
Cheers!
Skullcandy's Roc Nation Aviators are really awesome, don't let the skullcandy brand scare u away, some of the most crisp sound out there. Remote works with android too, I think its like you have to hold the buttons instead of pressing but either way, it works and is awesome...and you can get them on ebay used for like $60 or new for $100 rather than the $150 in the store
??
I don't think you need to be worried about that, any pair should work.

Trust me.. I would LOVE to use in-ear headphones, but non are fitting my ears (also my left auditory canal is smaller than my right) and a custom-built model is too expensive I think.

also i cant stand in ear although I do like that Apple/S6 ones which are a bit of both
Sennheiser make excellent earphones. I've found their MX series to be quite good and have used two pairs of MX270s over the past seven years.
I've also heard that the Xiaomi earphones are good

If you can use earbuds (technically not an in-ear driver and they are claimed to fit very well in many ears) definitely check out Sonys sbh70.
