My headphone adapter for my MT3G recently stopped working, so I'm going to buy a new one soon, but I figured I might as well get a new set of headphones as well.
Would you guys know of any good quality headphones?
I'm interested in in-ear bud headphones with a built in mic.
Also, would you guys know where I can buy the MT3G 3.5mm adapter?
I found one on Amazon, but it's requiring me to buy the headphones with it.
Also a white pair of headphones and adapter is what I'm looking for, since I want it to match my MT3G color.
I know this is in the wrong forum, but I figured that whatever worked with the G1 should work with the MT3G, correct me if I'm wrong though.
Thanks in advance.
I'm using this original adapter with the Ai-M6 headphone.

You should check out the link below from head-fi. Those guys over there are pure audiophiles so they'll know whats the best. Thanks to them I found the perfect headphones for me.

Thanks for the quick post, the headphone you got looks very promising, but it seems like it doesn't have a microphone built in. I'll wait for some more posts and see, but thanks again I'll be sure to keep those headphones in mind.

What sort of budget are you looking at? More and more highend in ear monitors (IEMs) are coming out with inline mic versions.
I don't really have a limit on price as of now, but if you know of one of equal quality, as the ones that came with the MyTouch 3G, or better. Send a link my way
http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Ears-Isolating-Earphones-Microphone/dp/B000X26UTU/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1268359468&sr=8-16
Alittle pricey but companies tend to charge a premium for models with inline mics. You know, because of iPhone users...:-/
There are cheaper from Ultimate Ears too. Shure also offers a couple of models with inline mics.
Lol, that's a "little pricey"? I guess I can set my budget at about $40 then. If I can't find another I'll probably have to buy the ones that come with the MT3G.
Heh... Thats why I asked if you had a budget.
http://www.amazon.com/V-MODA-Earbuds-Headset-iPhone-Compatible/dp/B000WN00FK/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_2_2
These aren't half bad, their actual price are $39.90 (you have to add to cart to see the real price). These are on the way out as a new model just came out which is why they are fairly cheap.
Lol I didn't think headphones would cast that much, except for ones built for reasons other than usage on the bus. I might get that last one you showed me, it looks promising for sound and all that, but I don't know if I want something that will break in a few months thanks for the help though

Motorola S9HD. Had a pair (until my daughter broke them). Used everyday for work/gym/home. Music and phone calls. $99 @ Best Buy.
Hi all! I had an iphone for 6 months now and i have some great headphones with mic (zagg smartbuds). Now I'm a SGS owner. The problem, as we all know, is the 3.5 jack different connections. So I'm trying to find a 3.5mm, 4 conduct, iphone female to SGS male afaptor.
My first find is that http://www.kvconnection.com/product-p/km-354r3m-r2f.htm works but costs way too much.
Many great headphones out there are iphone compatible (so no SGS) and i think we need a solution for that. If anyone here is an android developer...maybe he can create a software solution too.
Unfortunately most apple products use non standard wiring for the headphones, so you are more likely to find normal-to-iphone adapters and not the other way around
I think even that will work because iphone jack output is TRRS and samsungs TRSR
So the cable you are talking about is a
(female universal) TRSR<--->TRRS (male iphone)
Only the last 2 conducts change. So if you put an iphone compatible headset in the female input you will get a normal output.
Do you know where can I find adapters like the ones you mention?
Or hack it?
Has anyone tried instead of buying an adapter, stripping the cables and switching the ground and the mic on an "iPhone-type" headphones?
Would be great to learn your experiences on this, I have a great pair of Bose headphones that I love, and would really enjoy using this on the Galaxy S....

can anyone confirm if the smartbuds are working with this adapter ?
that says its FOR the iphone, not for iphone earphones in other devices so that may not work.
this one does work for sure as ive bought it.
http://www.meelec.com/MEE_TRRS_Adapter_for_P_Version_Headphones_p/adptr-trrs-35.htm
Good find, indeed that one says specifically that it swaps the connections: "Adapter Pinout: T-T, R1-R1, R2-S, S-R2"
$10 isn't great but isn't too bad, the one I saw months was something like $20-30.
can anyone confirm if the smartbuds are working with this adapter ?
Looking to get some Klipsch Image S4 Headphones to compliment my HTC HD7.
The only problem with buying generic 3.5mm earbuds, is of course I lose the call and volume controls which come with the stock earbuds.
So: I want to get a externsion cable with the volume/call contrl buttons, so I can plug my headphones into that cable, and then that cable into the phone.
Anyone seen a product like this?

Their called Mic Adapter's, so go research, google, or ebay "mic adapter" and pick one you like, hope this helps.
To keep the stock feel of my headset, I just bought a small 3.5mm female connector. Then I opened the headsets remote (it is very easy: just pull the buttons up).
There is a little board inside. I removed the cables of the original earbuds and soldered the female connector with fine cable to it. But before trying this, one needs to make sure, that the soldering equipment you have is fine enough because the soldering points are VERY small.
Now I can use any earbud I want, without losing any of the look or functionality the original equipment offered.
The price was approximately 1 Euro + the new headphones.
Replacement headphones
Hi all,
I think my question is simpler. I can't get along with the HTC headphones when I am out running - my ears are a funny shape I guess, so I want to get some earphones with ear hooks. BUT, I really want to keep the microphone and volume controls. Can anyone explain what I should look for. I tried some Philips ones, for iPhone, and they did not adjust volume.
Thanks in advance if anyone could shed some light on this!

Look here: http://us.creative.com/products/wel...437&WT.cg_n=Campaigns&WT.mc_id=8863#subcat866
I believe the HS-930i or HS-730i are what you're looking for, they don't have any hooks, though.
Thanks Dorian, this is very helpful. I note that the ones you have picked out are specifically for iPhone - am I right in thinking that headphones that provide all functionality for iPhone will also provide all functionality for HTC HD7 as well?

No, I bought Seinheisser Headphones with Mic, it was compatible with the iphone therefore thought the same, paid £65 for these, found out on my return from holiday that they did not work with the HTC Trophy! Everything works bar the Mic! It works very well with my sister in laws iphone!
Hence why I am now trawling the xda forum looking for something that is gauranteed to work! Not willing to spend anymore money on anything else!
I hope this helps,
Will
Thanks Will - that was exactly my concern... you spend a lot of money and they still don't work! And of course shops aren't keen on you putting the earphones in your ear to check! The lack of responses to this suggests to me that, at the moment, there isn't a solution.
Unless someone knows differently...
Solution found?
I contacted HTC directly today (perhaps should have done this first!) and had a very helpful conversation with Mohammed in their support centre.
He pointed me at the Dixons site, which shows lots of accessories, together with product compatibility. This was very helpful.
I have just ordered some Nokia WH-800 earphones from Amazon for 18 GBP plus postage. I think they will do what I require.
I also loved the look of "PowerBeats Sport Headphones red with Control Talk" and I may ultimately go for those, although the price of 120 GBP is a little steep for me.
Anyway, I think I have found a solution!
Was hoping for a replacement set also - I must have odd ears as the htc standards (although sounding good) just don't stay put. I need those inner ear bud things or a full on over head set.
Andyspr - can you let us know if they work for you? Those over ear clips would sort me out!!
Okay, so i was out the other day and relised i had lost my original headphones while i was out. I use headphones daily and couldn't live without them.
Question is does anyone stock the original Samsung Headset with the PTT(push to talk) button on it? or maybe another manufacturer that works with the Ace.
Preferably I'm looking for standard rather than the in-ear pair.
Thanks in advance!
I've tested it with an original headset from LG (LG optimus one). And worked!
Maybe you should try buy a new one and test it before you actually buy it.
the pinout of samsung's stock headset is universal, you may use it on iPod, HP 4-pole audio+mic jack and in others, but not on nokia. nokia headsets follow a different pinout pattern, swapping ground to mic+shield. well, I did successfully converted a nokia headset to a universal one.
wait, I was lost there, but still, samsung's 3.5mm jack is universal. only nokia is an exception. hehehe. you may use any headset except for old iPod headsets and nokia headsets. iPod 4, iPhone 4 and newest ipods have the universal jack pinout configuration that shares with almost all of handsets.
Thanks for the replies guys. Done a bit of digging around and found a user on eBay selling original headsets for £3
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
I tried my old Sony Ericsson headset and the sound was so distorted. It was like the speakers were rattleing although the sound was so quiet...
anyways, as mentioned before, i've found a set on ebay and a reasonably good price of £2.20
Not sure if i'm allowed to link to ebay pages but here goes...
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280795430244?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619
If I had a pound for every time i saw something sold as genuine on Ebay
We'll see what happens when they come, if they function properly ect... then at the end of the day i'm not fussed
Just got the set through this morning... Seems like stock, build quality is as good as my original, sounds is ok. and the button functions. So £2.20 well spent...
Thanks for your help guys

Defy has the same pinout as Iphone, It's 3.5 mm jack of course . You need to give more details if you expect any help like the most important how much are you willing to pay, with or w/o microphone.

you can try SoundMagic ES18 i have used it for over a year and it is really really good, GREAT BASS!!!
It doesnt have microphone & I dont know how much it will cost in your country. I bought it for USD7 approx.
iI would recommend philips shb 9000 headphones.
The feature is you can connect it with bluetooth OR with cabel (for example when battery is zero)
Cable connection give better sound every time, but BT connection let's use it as handsfree
Are there headphones where the jack has three connectors, the third one for FM reception, like the original?

There is nothing special with Defy's headphone plug, if you're going to use a headphone withour microphone.
Any headphone with a stereo 3,5mm jack will work. So, if you have a favorite headphones which you used before with your music players it'll work on Defy.

As I said above, any standard headphones will work. The FM radio doesn't use a seperate part of the headphones as antenna. It uses the same signal cable of the headphones as antenna.
If you can do away with microphone(not suitable if you intend to use for calling), as pointed you can use any headphone with the standard 3.5mm jack. I use Sennheiser HD 202 II.
