I ordered a headset and a charger to my Wallaby from Hungarian T-mobile webshop.
http://webshop.t-mobile.hu/webapp/w...goryId=1744&langId=-11&parent_category_rn=102
They ships it, but this is not an original accessories, both of them made by Hama. The charger does not matter, but the headset's sound quality is not good to listening music.
Is the original Qtek1010 headset good quality for listening music? (Good bass, and clear treble sounds)
If it is, I will send back the Hama headset, and search an original one...
And it not was cheap. I bought it for 5000 HUF. A poor quality headset I can buy about half price, and then cut it out and replace the headphones with a good quality walkman headphones...
I've bought my XDA with no accessories, so I cant comapre the Hama with the original headset...
Thanks,

I purchased a Seidio mini-usb to audio cable and I cannot get output in both ears no matter what headset or combination of stereo adapters I use. If I hold a stereo adapter half way in the audio cable I can hear in both ears, but that hardly suffices.
Does anybody else own one of these? Do I just have a defective one or is there some secret I don't know?
Thanks

I know that my room mate has a pair and they work fine. I would assume that it is just a defective pair, or your port is messed up.
I have 2 pair. One worked fine, but the cable is so cheap it started to break after 1 week, and only an hour or so of use. I bought another, and only get sound out of one ear. I think you might need to by one of the HTC remotes if you actually want something with quality.

I bought this one, and it works great. Problem is that it's a bit bulky, but the cable quality is great. I bought one that just outputted audio only and it was small and skinny. broke in 20 minutes of use...
Look for one with a REALLY thick cable. The one above probably has one. The ones with "normal" looking cables on ebay actually have thread-thin wires that will snap in a week.
i have Seidio's 2-in-1 isolators, and they work fine for me, but it does take some doing to make sure the jack is fully pushed in. it goes in farther than the usual sync/charger cables. the main problem is the way it bends out at the jack, which prevents me from taking out my stylus easily.
I do not like the headphones that came with the HD2.
I have had sony and LG phones that had a 3.5mm jack right where the mic/answer/pause/etc clip. So I could use any set of headphones I wanted.
I know I can plug directly into the HD2. But I would like to have the control to answer the phone and talk with the mic using my earbuds.
Anyone know of a universal 3.5mm cable with the mic clip etc. that works with the HD2?
Thanks

How would it be, if you would use the "search" function?!
There are quite a lot threads around talking about this subject, I can't see any need for a new one!
Picked up the HTC Vivid yesterday, came from the Galaxy SII(gave to fiance) has anyone else noticed a problem with the headphone jack in that you have the really PRESS the headphone jack in, then if you just slightly twist the connector it will tell the device you've disconnected the head phones and disables the music?
This has happened with multiple headphones and is a major downer for me as I am very active when I have my headphones in, mostly this will become a problem while riding my motorcycle to work.
How are your headphone jacks????
Mine works fine. I'd say get a replacement...

I've had my Vivid since launch and haven't noticed any issues with the headphone jack yet. You might take it back to the store, compare against the floor model, and if yours definitely has an issue then show the AT&T employee and they should swap you out for a new one.
I have a specific pair of headphones that goes in the jack very easily until the last bit, then I have to push pretty hard.
I have not experienced any disconnect when twisting the connector so far. That would seem to be a hardware problem worthy of a return.
ok, I'm slightly relieved by this, I will drop by a store on the way home to check it out. Thanks all!
yea.. mine also seems very tight when i was testing the FM radio.. luckily i never use headphones so i dont really care.
my headphone jack has problem, gonna see about a replacement
otherwise, its an awesome phone, very similar to evo3d/4g with the obvious differences.
My headphone jack is very tight. Love that factor. I use standard iPhone headsets. It seems to hold the headset in tight so as to not lose connect unless it is wanted.
Tightness with HTC earphones
I'm using the earphones that came with my HTC HD2. While testing the Vivid FM radio, I realized I was getting sound in only one earphone. I pushed on the plug and suddenly got sound in the other. I removed the earphones and re-inserted them. I could definitely tell an initial stop and then a second audible click when it went all the way in.
checked 4 different display models in 2 different stores, and had a guy go through a half dozen new phones in the box and all of them had headphone jack problems.
For what it's worth, I've discovered different headphones make the difference.
My Sennheiser canal earbuds disconnect easily if I'm not careful. My Phillips wrap-arounds are rock solid on the same phone.
Tested with my wife's Vivid and had the same results.

I have exactly the same result, have 3 headphones and one of them getting pulled out a bit easily, while other 2 works perfectly fine.
Gotta say, this is getting a little frustrating. Who's got a decent pair of canal earbuds that they like AND that don't disconnect and stop my music every time I put my phone back in my jacket pocket.
This is a little stupid really. I'm not using cheap headphones, and I don't have any problems with any other phone, my nook tablet, etc. A crap headphone jack on a phone like this is highly disappointing.
I have some house of Marley jammin buds and some Skullcandy FMJs that work fine. Only ones I have had trouble with are the blackberry ones.

Mine has the same issue. I do remember that my son's HTS came with headphones but they were the kind with the microphone and had 4 contacts on the connector instead of 3 that a regular set of headphones have. I will come home and will try my son's headphones to see if that is the reason.
Headphone jacks should be a known technology. I've used my Sennheiser headphones in a ton of devices, and never had an issue till my brand new phone.
That being said, yes, the phone has the ability to take an extended jack for microphone compatibility, so I ordered a well reviewed cheap pair of phones that happened to be on sale today for half off and include the in-line microphone. ($10 bucks, yes indeed!)

Just be sure to order today and use the promo code. I'll post once I have them how they stack up and if I still see the disconnect issue.
What I've noticed is that when you twist the headphone jack, it'll come out a little bit. The headphones with shorter jacks that are almost completely concealed in the phone will stay connected still, because it won't pop out far enough. The headphones with jacks that are slightly larger disconnect more easily, since more of it sticks out. Not really sure if that's just coincidence or not, but it's just what I've been seeing.
Have some problem here with my Shure headphones. The quick and easy fix that seem to work well for me is to use a different (short) extension cable that snaps in well to the jack...
...having said that, still sux to have paid $200 for a high-end phone and get such a crappy jack.
Count me in as someone with headset jack problems on their Vivid too...
My Sennheiser HD280's slip in and out of the jack, causing it to think it has a microphone connected (and pausing playback)
My car's aux-in cable just won't stay connected-- there's plenty of friction, but just rotating the cable alone causes it to think the headphones have vanished.
My cheapo headphones work, so long as I keep the cable perfectly still and allow no rotation/pull on the cable.
This is rather frustrating, I must admit.
I'm going to go to the ATT store tomorrow and see if their demo unit has this same issue also.
(Side note: MHL doesn't work on my phone either, but I'm not sure if that's a side effect of the way I rooted my phone)
i noticed this problem with my 3.5mm in my car. I was stumped because my sony canal earbuds were working perfectly and my gaming headset (turtle beach hpx) was working perfectly as well (the jack on this is pretty big). I went to radioshack and tried a different 3.5mm and it fit perfectly. Im guessing certain plug-ins dont work for some reason.
Finally a speaker dock for our tabs http://www.amazon.com/Philips-AS851-37-Fidelio-Docking/dp/B005HY4UH8/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_2
While it is a great idea, the price is in no way feasible. This speaker cost more than I paid for my Tab, the problem lies with Samsung and their product releases. They push too many tabs into the market at a time. I would sell my current Tab, the OG, and save 200 and buy the 10.1 inch Tab, but that's just me.
I just tried this dock on Sunday at Best Buy with my Nexus S... the plug is rather flimsy and made me nervous about leaving my phone on it. But the worst thing is that connecting it via dock connector doesn't automatically play music through the speakers (like iPod dock connector speakers do). You have to connect via Bluetooth. Apparently Philips has an app that goes along with this speaker, but I don't know whether it gives you that functionality.
Are you certain that speaker dock will accommodate the samsung connector? It's pictured with a micro usb connector.

No it has nothing to do with the samsung connector. This is a Bluetooth connection and streams the audio over A2DP profile.
This is pretty expensive for the price. You're better off finding another Bluetooth streaming speaker. I think Jawbone just came out with a wireless speaker for like $99.
