I was using a Samsung Galaxy S2 (SGS2) before moving to Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML - 4GB/64GB). On SGS2, I had an earphone with a remote button on it that would mute/unmute the calls. It could also disconnect the call on long press. This is a very useful feature that I'm missing on my Asus Z2.
Is there any way to enable this feature without rooting the phone? Maybe by using another dialer application? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Works for me !!! call mutes on pressing earphone button.

Sounds good. Are you using any 3rd party dialer or stock dialer? I'm using the Samsung headset with stock dialer and it does not seem to work for me
nopes, everything stock.

Tweak request-
-Enabling the mute button on the back of the phone when you are on a BT headset or just using the handset so you don't have to mess with the screen.
-A step further: Allow you to remap the button during different situations.
Example-
While not on a call you could remap it to something like voice command or live search (or anything else you wanted)
I accidentally hit that button alot when talking with the phone held to my ear. Launching programs would be weird too as its on the back. I'm sure it can and will be done though.

I'm assuming that no one has come up with anything considering how old this thread is. I'm looking for the same exact thing. This would be great when using my hands-free car stereo that doesn't provide a mute button. Bump!
Either you guys haven't tried Rhodium Keyboard Controller yet, or that's not what you're looking for.
It lets you remap all hardware keys, including the mute button.
I have been using the headset from my iphone and they did work fine / picking up calls with the button and hanging call too but after 2.2 the button is not longer working , The mic works i can answer the call from the phone and use the mic but i will have to go back to the phone to end the call. weird... im wondering if i should do a fresh wipe and reflash

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)?
Hi. I want to know how to get the iphone 5 headset to work on my galaxy s3? I'm aware the volume control will never work but assumed everything else does. Some have said they have managed to get it working on their galaxy s3 either through specific software or ROM changes?
Right now I can make calls to other with the headset working perfectly, but when I receive calls from others I cannot hear them nor can they hear me. So the problem only occurs when I RECEIVE calls. The mic is really important to me.
Any help would be really appreciated.
OK. I've narrowed down the problem. The headset stops working when I press the middle button to receive calls. In other words, if I answer a call using the actual phone, the headset works fine. If I do press the middle button to receive a call, I can no longer hear the other person nor can they hear me through the headset.
Does anyone use the iphone 5 headset with the galaxy s3? Does the headset work for you?

The workaround I'm using now is to have auto-answering enabled while a headset is connected. Now i'm trying to find away to reject calls with a single click but after trying various apps I've not been able to do so.

How to set the auto-answer when using the headset ?
thanks
I have a pair of handsfree headphones from my old galaxy s2 and I am wondering if there is any way I can make the button work for answering calls or skip tracks. The microphone works on calls, but I need to answer manually. Any help is good. Thanks!
Try this app, it's trial but there's a full version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kober.headset

and please report back if you found a solution (probably include the information in the first post for people looking for the same)
No extra apk needed for me
I have tested with a headphone from my LG gw620 and works fine (I am on stock unrooted jellybean Moto G).
I can answer calls by pressing button on earphone's mic. During a call if I press it silences my mic and if i press it reactivates mic. (I can't end call, so)
In stand by mode a short press triggers my last multimedia apk used (radio, music, etc..) and while playing them if i press button I get pause.
Long press always ends in same end: google Voice search.
Greetings
I installed the paid apk but it does not work.
Had you any joy with this? Having same issue.
I would love to control the ability to mute and unmute my phone from my watch. I couldn't find any app that would allow me to do it. Has anyone found one?
Simple. ..wear mini launcher

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I want to mute/unmute my phone during a phone call. I generally use a bluetooth headset to take my calls so it would be great if I can mute/unmute the call from my watch instead of getting my phone out.

Why not get a headset with that capability? I can mute/unmute calls with my Plantronics Voyager Pro.
Unfortunately, my BT headsets don't have the mute functionality.
