Try 3 quick clicks to answer....where is the documented?
1 clicks pauses/resumes music
2 clicks seems to call last caller?
Long press allows Voice Dial, but then it makes it confirm on the LCD (wtf)?
I've been playing with my Defy for a while, and I've not found any Mp3Player that can do play/pause/next with the included headset AND ALSO answer calls when they come in with the same button.
I used to have a Nokia 5800 which had an awesome headset with play|pause|next|previous|stop|answercall buttons.
I've been unable to find something like that for Defy (android really), is this an "issue" or does it have a solution?
Thanks in advance to whoever helps
Can't say for sure they work as mine haven't arrived yet but Zagg Smartbuds are suppose to be able to do that using multiple presses and long presses & an analog volume control

Thanks for the answer, can you post your results when you receive them?
It's funny cause MY headset on a Galaxy S with Winamp configured exactly the same, actually goes to the next song with double press, but not in my defy.
Hope yours work fine =) I want to be able to at least skip songs and also answer/hang up from the headset=)
Got my ZaggSmartBuds today and had a chance to play with them. At 1st I wasn't real happy with them as all I could do was pause the misic and if I did anything else like long press or double press it would open up the other players I had installed. So I started gettting rid of them one my one, I had Mixing, Songbird, & Tunewiki, plus the stock music app.
I don't remember which one I think it was Tunewiki with nothing else installed when you douple clicked or long clicked it would bring up the voice command app. Didn't try answering the phone as it didn't work the music apps well. Un-install all of those and installed PowerAmp and now I can answer the phone, music pauses when the call come in, answered it by pressing the button on the headset. Music returns at the end of the call when the party hangs up or you press the button again.
Long press and it will skip the playing song and go to the next one. There are some options in PowerAmp to set the button to Double/Triple click, so you can go forward or reverse didn't try that option.
The SmartBuds came with 2 sizes for foam ear pieces and 3 sizes or silcone ear pieces with a nice little hard shell zipper case to carry them in. I liked the volume control inline even though it was analog I didn't have to adjust the volume on the phone from it's normal setting yet I could still adjust the volume or mute it. I didn't have to turn the volume down for the call as it was to loud but was able to do that with the inline control. The buds have amazing sound. It takes a little practice to inset the buds in my ears as they are angled once I got the hang of it they slipped right in.
Hope that answered your question
Hi,
As gramps50 wrote above, with PowerAmp you can set up in the option to : play or stop the music with the handset button, when a call is coming, the music stops and you can answer with the same button. When you finish your call, the music restarts automatically.

Thanks both for the input.
I'll give that a try. It still amazes me that a BASIC functionality like the Nokia headsets include, does not seem to be available on this phone! it's really weird!
App called Handset Button Controller maybe help you.

thanks! i've used poweramp and it worked fine=)
Hello,
I used to hold the button on my mic for a time when cycling to launch "google voice dialer" but now that I've uploade my software it doesnt work anymore. the common functions as play/pause/skip track are still working so i guess It is not the headphone. I could double tap the home key button to lauch the google voice dialer but still doesnt work.
Could anyonee help me out?
Thanks
Just moved to a OnePlus X from a Nexus 5. I was disappointed to find that my existing 3-button headphones from Sennheiser work different on the OnePlus X.
On the N5, pressing the middle button muted the mic during any calls. This was useful as I often had to take calls in a very noisy and busy office.
On the OPX, pressing the middle button ends the call.
Anyone know of any headphones that will mute instead of end the call on the OPX? Or is there an app or setting that I can toggle?
You can try that :

There is a paid version.
There are others on Playstore.

thats actually how it should behave
I tried some. No great app found.
The best should be to have a music player who support it.
On last android, some "shortcuts" are reserved for google now, that's why that seems more complicated than before..
Hello everyone
I've been struggling for a few hours now... to get my voice button on the headset to activate Google assistance.
At first it opened Svoice then i tried all sort of programs like Bluetooth launcher and Hint2Search, also checked out every possible options on the phone/google/plt hub (the plantronic app).
And the best result I've gotten so far is the launch of Google now (which is different from assistant)
So as you may have guessed, my question is how do I get google assistant on (same as when i hold my home button) when i hold my headset button.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 edge // Android 8.0.0]
Any help is very appreciated,
Have a good day

red button on boom
the way to activate Google Voice is by pressing the red button on the mic boom. Its not the button you use to answer calls. It is also the mute button.
