Sorry if this has been asked before - I searched and could not find an answer.
I am thinking of buying the ZaggBuds which plug into the 3.5mm jack and have an integrated microphone to make and answer calls.
I am hoping that the Sprint Hero allows me to answer calls using the 3.5mm jack?
Thanks!
yes. In fact it even works for just speakers plugged into the jack. Just have to use the phones microphone in that case.

If I recall correctly, and IPhones headset lets us control volume and music threw it - I assume calls would be answered in the same manner.
I have a pair of $50 Scosche Headphones that have a built in mic and volume control but i can't get them to work properly with my phone. When i plug them in, its shows the headset with the mic, but when i use them within a call no one can hear me. I can hear them but thats it.
There isn't a setting within the phone is there? is it just that my heaphones aren't compatible?
I plug the 3.5mm into my car speakers and phone calls play over the system...just have to speak into the phone microphone. I would assume it would work the same with headphones.
It has to be a regular headset with a single plug for it to work. The iPhone earbuds work great for example, the mic on those is way better than the internal mic on the Hero.
As far as using a button on the headset to answer calls, I'd also like to know how to program that button. I'd like to be able to press it and have it pull up voice search.

The way it's programmed on the iPod Shuffle is to pause (in our case, also answer calls) and long-press for voice options. The middle button of course. I don't think the volume buttons on the iPhone headset work on the Hero.
To be honest it all depends on the headphones like I have the Epic 4g headphones and it doesnt work well. You might have to buy HTC headphones for compatibility.

I have the Epic 4g head phones and they work perfectly for me. I am able to answer calls as well as navigate my music with them. <3 those headphones.
If your headphones arent working Google this:

I got a noisehush headset and works great for voice and stereo. My old HTC headset I got with the tmo wing is on its dying day.

I have a pair of headphones with a button and mic in the head set. I press the button to start/stop music as well as answer/hangup calls
I have the Zagg buds and they work great with the hero. I can press the answer button the button on the volume adjuster that are on the buds and it works like a champ.
Great headphones!

I bought a pair of Sony head phones for the Iphone to use on my HTC Hero thinking that they would work because it had volume control and built in microphone but all their good for is listening to music...
I use Thermaltake eSports Isurus headphones. They're in-ear buds with a mic on the line. The use a single 3.5mm TRRS plug to connect to phones, and have a TRRS to TRS headphones + microphone splitter for plugging into a computer. They work great with my HTC Hero.
They have an on-mic button, but I haven't played with that to see if it'll auto-answer if I push it. I'm more the 'plug the headset in after i get a call' kinda guy.
yes
Hello, I'd like to ask you what do you think about using Creative HS-930i with HTC HD2. This headset is for iPhone but it has 3,5 jack so I think it could be able to work with HTC HD2.
Would you recommend me another headset?
I need a headset with microphone and some buttons (play music, pause).
Thanks.
i think it won't work
i once tried the original apple headset with controls, but they remote didnt work.
so i guess this is the same here.

I've been looking for a stereo remote to use with my 2x but surpringsly hard to find. LG has the LG PHF 110M but it only receives calls, i also need it to control spotify/mp3 player. Either micro usb or 3.5 connection is fine by me.. Any tip on a decent remote that works?
I am using a Sennheiser MM400 BT headset for MP3 and phone calls. You can control play/pause (end call), prev/next title and Vol +/-.
All without annoying cable!
Only “contra“ is the price starting at 130€

Hey
I have both a mono bt headset and a stereo a2dp one with built in mic. I'd like to record audio using either one. I currently use tapeatalk but it is only picking up the phone mic. I tried using an app called bt Mono but had no luck with it, any suggestions?

I am also interested in this as I want to use a headset for note-to-self tasks.
Is there a possibility to use the headset micro as audio source?
Thanks!
I have bought a new bluetooth headset, and having problem with it. There is no audio in bsplayer and in vlc. The headset is paired, and no sound is played through the phone speaker. The song skip functions do work. What prevents me from throwing away the headset is the fact that when I play music in the native Music Player, the headset works.
The old headset works in all the programs.
Both sets are just generic (probably) Chinese made junk. I can't post links, but if you go to ebay and look for "Adjustable Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Headset Headphone Earphone + Mic+ FM Radio", you'll see it. The old one is seven years old and I have no idea what model it is.
The phone runs Android 2.3.7, CyanogenMod-7.2.0-olympus.
I did try to uninstall and reinstall bsplayer.
Any ideas?

Yes, head back to our device forum. You jumped up to the AHD forum instead of the A4G
