I would really be interested in getting one......

Or post?
Why does every body oohing and ahhing about this piece of junk? IT DOES NOT VIBRATE!!!!.... Let me repeat. IT DOES NOT VIBRATE!!!! So the only way for you to get call notification is to either wear the ear pieces all the time or turn on your Athena default ear shattering notification sound. Now, I understand that a lot of you think that no one will ever call you or the line of work that you're in will never ever require you to attend any meeting at work so the default loud Athena notification is not a problem. But think again!!!! On that rare occasion when the hooker you paid to go out on a date with you calls, you will find yourself looking like an IDIOT emitting that horrible stupid default call notification sound that came with the Athena. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY BUYING THIS PIECE OF SH*T.
The only stereo BT headset that also vibrates up until now is the Jabra BT8010.

We all got your point dude. Perhaps a bit nicer way could be a better way of informing and putting your point across. This is a forum to share information, where manners would be nice (other than info).

Manner would be spending a minute searching for more info (problems, etc...) about the item one is thinking of posting that have been reported time after time after time after time... up here before starting another thread tricking people into buying junks....
I'm with you Red_Toyol.
I bought this headset and the Jaba but took the Jaba back after a few days in favour of this one for two main reasons. First, the sound quality on the Sony-Ericsson is definitely better, both on Music and both ways on calls. Secondly, the wires for the earpieces act as the necklace so you wear it round your neck (and inside your shirt) and it only comes out when needed.
Now, since using it for some 4 months now, I can give you a couple of other pointers.
The DS970 has caller display so I can see who's calling before I answer. OK, it's number only (there's probebly a fix for names) but I'm good with that.
Also, I charge mine once every two weeks or so. That's as I use it only now and then for music but for phone calls all the time. However, I leave the BT on the Ameo ALL the time but switch off the headset when not using it. That's because, when the phone rings (and I only have 20seconds before switching to answer machine), I have time to power up the headset (about 5 secs including logon to Ameo) and answer. When call finished, I hang up and switch off.
If you do this, you get sooo much battery life for no convenience loss AND it means vibrate would be useless anyway.
Each to their own I suppose but I am so pleased with this bit of kit. IF you need vibrate, look elsewhere. If not, this is the best IMHO.
Oh, and as for the ringing, why would you use the default ringer anyway? I have my own ringtones for various purposes and when I get a call, my Ameo rings as if I didn't have a headset. The only difference is I can choose at that point which method to answer by.
Hope this is helpful to those searching. Cheers.
DS970 indeed looks like quite an ideal BT headset.
Vibration is completely unnecessary for me also. Even if I have such a function, I won't use it. The reason is this. If I'm outdoor, I want normal ringtone to come through from the phone's speaker. If I'm in the meeting, I would just switch via profile into one of those "special ringtone". Special ringtone could be mosquitoe ringtone (ultrasonic frequency ringtone which I can hear but some others can't), sound of coughing, or even sound of a vibrating phone, etc. Something that sounds acceptable from etiqeutte standpoint. In addition, my profile would have set the ringing to go from soft to progressively loud. There is no need to actually vibrate.
I like the style of the phone where you can hide it in your shirt with only two wires hanging out. It is much better than hanging it on the ear, which looks really wierd in my own opinion.
Thanks for the recommendation.
Beware of fake HBH DS970 from ebay sellers.
I did a quick research on this, and noted that many have bought from Hong Kong sellers mainly, but some are out of US too.
If you have it very cheap, it's likely to be a fake.
Attached are some articles related to these fake items.

Tritton - Another Option
Here is another option I came across while looking for a BT solution. The Tritton relies on the housing to clip on your pocket, shirt or coat but I have also used it with a lanyard when wearing a t-shirt. It also allows you the option of using any stereo headset with a 3.5 mm plug.
It is a very clean, mimimalist design (no blinking blue light) with an OLED display and Caller ID (number only) to conserve battery and relies on only 3 buttons for all the functions. So far it has worked very well with the Advantage and the range for both headset and stereo functions has been excellent with no static or popping at all. You can actually keep your device in your pocket, bag or briefcase without any degradation to audio quality. The only con is that there is not vibration feature.
I purchased mine at Tiger Direct for less than $100.
While trying to source for DS980, I came across DS220, which seems to be similar to DS980 except you're free to plug in your 3.5mm earphone of your choice if you wish.
Has anyone used this before? If so, how is the sound quality?
Anyone knows if there are other differences between DS980 and DS220?
bizarre this thread should appear as i bought some of these this very day for 40 quid from Cex, though they are brand new and CERTAINLY not fake. certainly if they are available for twenty quid il be gutted!! they seem to work fine. sound quality is great and i dont feel like a **** wearing them. all good then. the only thing i havent figured is whether i can get it to automatically open up media player when i press play. i also cant get it to work with my n95 - after pairing it just says 'unable to connect'. stupid n95.

my main gripe with the sony units is that they have their own propriety charger connection, a kinda bastardised Sony phone charger.
IMHO the tritton unit is much better, recently upgraded to one from a hbh-ds970
i guess it all depends on each other's preferences. some like the headset to vibrate, some like it hanging via neckstrap, etc.
this is what i've been using for 2 years now:
http://www.itechdynamic.com/en/products_spec.asp?cid=2&pid=02030
it's an r35 itech unit. i use the white one and i like it for the following:
- no need to hang it in your ear all the time
- minimalistic and you can hide it in your shirt collar...or clip it
- has a built in buzzer that i can hear even when outdoors. when a call comes there are 2 beeps that go off. they won't stop until i answer or the caller hangs up
- my x7500 is either in my laptop bag, the diaper bag or in a backpack. so this saves me the trouble of carrying it all the time
- during meetings, i can disable the buzzer and change the notification to rapid light mode. basically, i leave it on the table so when a call comes through the normal flashing light turns to 2 rapid flashes
- i can change the single earphone to dual for a2dp stereo use. the headset also allows me to skip to the next track or go back to the previous, etc
- and i can plug my nifty bose noise cancelers on it as well
cheers
I really cant understand why no one does the following:
a2dp
usb chrging
option for using your own headphones
vibrate
full caller id- not just number
sms viewing
full music controls
mp3 id tag display
lanyard or clip on option
equaliser controls
oled
wm and symbian compatitibilty
Surely it can't be that difficult- I just wanna be able to leave my Ameo in my pocket until I choose to take it out
Has anyone managed to find a set of headphones with an inline mic (like iphone ones) that actually work with android?
They both have the same 4 band pin config. so assuming it can be possible. From the research I've been doing on here, and like forums, it doesn't seem like this gets properly answered which I think might be down to the kernel (newbie so posso totally worng here) not been able to register the additional vol. buttons? Has anyone managed to sort this problem out so you can use which ever sets you like with functionality?
I think this is a two part question with one part going towards the Q&A section but anyway.
Cheers,
search on ebay for galaxy s earphone i9000
I haven't found a pair of headphones that I can control volume with, but all the "iPhone-compatible" headphones I've used with my phone have had the mic and play/pause/answer/endcall button working.
Just for reference, I've tested this with AKG Q350 earbuds (volume doesn't work, everything else does), iPhone headphones (same deal), and JBuds J3M (this is my own pair, it doesn't have volume controls but does have a play/pause button, which works). The mics on all three work with the Nexus S.
Finally, it may be of note that the earbuds included with the Nexus S do not have volume controls on them, which may indicate that it isn't possible.
yea may be it isnt possible

Hi guys,
Can you reccomend some other earphones ??
I'm interested in one that can skip songs and control the volume.
Go with meelectronics best earbuds ever. Awesome sound than my 300$ shure earbuds and very cheap also

I have tried the HTC stock headset, the headset has the volume up/down and answer button, the answer/end and mic works, but the volume will be replaced by previous track and next track, the + will be previous and - will be next track switch around, but can be rectified easily, the design of the + and - buttons can be switch around by using your finger nail and praying off with little force.

I'm looking for a headset with control-keys on the wire. The AKG Q350 are more expensive but offer quite impressive sound.
So you wrote that the volume-keys doesnt work. Can I do something else with the volume-keys? Maybe changing prev/next track?
Thanks for your answer.
I haven't been able to get the volume buttons to do anything. I can control forward and back with double/triple press of the normal button. Maybe there are settings that I'm doing wrong or something, but initial poking around doesn't seem to reveal anything to me.
The best solution I've been able to come up with is Zagg Smartbuds (http://www.zagg.com/audio/smart-buds.php). Instead of volume buttons, there is a physical slider mechanism to control volume.
Not ideal, but definitely way better than nothing.
Also worth noting is that while the button controls (single-, double-, and triple-clicks) worked flawlessly on my Nexus One, they were super screwy on the Nexus S. The same set of headphones only registered single clicks-- a double click counted as two single clicks (pause--> resume play) and a triple as three single clicks (pause --> resume play --> pause again).
I'm currently using an app called Headset Button Controller (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.kober.headsetbutton&feature=search_result but there's also a free trial version) and it's working alright.
Sorry for the long-winded reply, but I had the same question for a long time and this is the best solution I've been able to come up with on my Nexus S.
Just bought the (Logitech) Ultimate Ears 600 vi, the volume up/down button doesn't work, but the play buttons work as expected, single press to pause, double press to next.

Cool, never knew the VM series existed, if it supports Galaxy S, I think it should support our NS just fine.

The stock headphones that come with the galaxy s3 have 3 buttons and work on the nexus s out of the box.
Play pause, next track, previous track.
Now I just need to convince my wife to let me have hers...

How can you make it work?
Got the app but it doesn't feel volume buttons...
Nexus s and galaxy s earphones are diffrent I have both of them and galaxy s earphones cannot play music properly
i think there is no solution for the nexus s where volume control is possible. i looked for the same thing some time ago. finally i ended up using a bt dongle, sony-ericsson mw600. i use klipsch image s4 headphones where i shortened the cable at the connector and made them longer near the earbuds. now i can wear the headphones around the neck. in the back the cables are held together by the movable clip which was on the headphones originally. the dongle then hangs on my chest and i can but it under the t-shirt if i like. the controns offered by the dongle are back, play/pause, forward, bt-volume, accept calls and it has a microphone. i have to say that the volume control does not affect the nexus s, it is just the volume of the dongle and additionally, the volume control is annoying. it is not made of two buttons but rather a touch surface on the side of the unit which works less than brilliant most of the time. that said, i can leave my phone in my pocket and control all the functions i need for listening to music during the day. battery life of the dongle is about the same as my nexus when listening to music, around 8 hours.
This is the kind of thing that makes me want to go back to Samsung, I mean they are the leaders in sound yet can't get music controls correct and keep a freaken standard. Last HTC I had came with a 3 buttons headset and through all Android did. With the One they give you good headphones but a single button headset and no way to skip tracks.:crying: I tried 3rd party apps like headset droid to make use of the single button headset but it seems like some clicks go unregistered, single click (pause) works, but when you double click all presses after that go unregistered and you have to click (pause) click (unpause) and then you can change the track.
I confirmed using the button monitor that clicks after a track change go unregistered which seems odd and I'm surprised no one else has this issue? This is with the stock music player.
When using Play Music and setting Headset Droid to specifically control it it starts to work like i want but weird the stock player canot be controlled the same way.
Complaints like this are stupid. It's just headset controls and if it is really annoying you buy a different phone.
I know it may seem a bit harsh but a complaint like this is a bit redundant.

Why is it stupid? The controls have nothing to do with the phone. The phone (stock music player) has the capability its just the supplied headset are lacking. If they supplied a 3 button headset like most newer phones then this would not be an issue (brothers Note 2 three button headset can skip tacks when plugged into the HTC One). Last HTC came bundled with a 3 button headset and if the One did I would not have to resort to 3rd party music apps and apps to control a single button headset. If they wanted to supply it with a single button headset then the music player should have been modified to support it.
Sure I can go buy Beats but the supplied headset should be able to complete a simple task such as changing a track.
I wish there was a MOD that fixed this! Drives me CRAZY. And I don't want to switch music players - I actually think everything else considered, HTC's music app is one of the best I've used on Android

Pffff drives me crazy, so ridiculous.
I wish there was a mod to bypass the damn default settings of the headset button. This way we could use Jays Headset Control app....
I gave up on it and use Google Music now, I really liked the stock player but can't complain with the recent updates Google added. I froze the stock player so it never kicks in
So it does not work with a 3 button headset, or you are just obsessed with the fact that it it not COME with one?
Because it would seem like a simple fix to just buy one, if the phone supports it.
I just used the 3-button control headset that came with my Desire HD (they're still available on the internet) and it worked perfectly as before. I can answer calls, skip tracks, change radio stations etc...
Anyone have luck controlling volume with headphones? Which ones are you using?

I tried the Samsung branded headphones from the S4 with no luck. I tried another pair of headphones that only have a pause / play / answer button. They didn't work to control pausing or answering the phone.
The wife may have a set of Apple headphones somewhere. I'll need to find where she put them and try them out.
I just ordered some Motorola ear buds online. Should be here next week I'll let you know how they work.
UPDATE: I just tried the Motorola earbuds. They work the same as the apple ones. However they don't have volume control on the headphones themselves so not much of a solution.

I just bought and tried out the Jays a-Jays five for android and only the middle button works.
Based on this and what other people said it looks like the only way to get 3 button functionality is via Bluetooth
I haven't really encountered anything like this. Not that I really try too hard to do so.
I've had the Motorola S11-Flex HD headphones for a while.
The good:
5-ish hours of battery life & very quick charging.
Pause; forward; back; vol up; and vol down all seem to work well. Forward and back require double and triple taps on the pause button... a little awkward while running.
I've heard no complaints taking calls on them either.
I find them pretty comfortable, with your ears holding the weight... might not combine with glasses/sunglasses/hat.
Seem reasonably durable, being chucked in a gym bag with shoes, lock, weight belt, etc.
The bad:
Not very loud. The out-of-the-box "ear cushions" are very thin, letting a lot of outside noise in. In a way, I like this. Running in the city, and I can still catch ambient noise like cars trying to run me over. Also, it's easy to have a conversation with someone without removing some heavy isolation buds first. Still, during podcasts or movie dialog in loud environments, they can be frustratingly quiet.
First set died after a month, but Moto customer service fixed me up with a warranty replacement.
Not the cheapest... amazon is slinging them for $65 at the moment. I paid $90.
I am using BOSE bt headphones and they were great
After searching the webs and finally even talking to some developers at Motorola I have come to this conclusion.

Nop, don't work....Hardware incompatibility
I've had my phone since January 2005 and I've been using the Bose in-ear earbuds since they came out.
My current ones are starting to show signs of wear (cable starting breaking down near one of the buds) and thus I was seeing on replacing them and keeping with Bose, since I really like the sound and the design of these earbuds. So I passed by the Bose shop and bought the Bose Soundtrue earbuds, designed for Samsung and Android phones, that come with a line in remote.
However, when I tested them out, the remote was not working. Pressing vol+ was restarting the song that was playing, and the same when the play/pause button was being pushed. The vol- did nothing. I tried using a third-party app to make it work (Headset Control Center from Degauss Lab) but to no avail, it did not. And to make it worse, the Bose Rep tried to call me on my phone and I could not even pick up the call with the button (middle one). In the end I returned my purchase.
So I'm bummed out. I have no clue what to do. I really like Bose and would like to stay with them. But if I really cannot get their earbuds to work... not sure if I will.
Anyone have any idea what I could do to make it work?
Or alternatively, are there similar earbuds (sound and design-wise) that would actually work with the Motorola G from 2014? I really abhor full in-ear earbuds for the closed out feeling I get when wearing them and the fact I'm less aware of my surroundings. I bike a lot in Brussels and I want to be able to hear what goes on around me (to do anything else is suicidal).
thanks in advance for your replies.
Bump. Is there really no-one around who can help?
Hey there,
I was using the same headphones from Bose since a year or so now on both Xperia Z and Z1C.
In mid August, the remote - which was working perfectly - stopped working.
I called the after sale services, thinking the something was wrong with the headphones...
They changed them to brand new ones that I received today. They don't work anymore.
Something happened between nov. 2014 and aug. 2015 ( my guess is lollipop - but I'm not even sure), and I can't use the earplugs the way thety were properly working before (play, pause, vol up / down - double click for skip...
This is a bummer.
I have a similar problem with Lollipop on my HTC One E8, with a single button wired headset: after the upgrade to Lollipop, the single-button control via my wired headset no longer works.
It never worked right without using the Degauss Headset Control Center, but before lollipop, using Degauss I could control it.
But since Lollipop, a single click results in multiple clicks - one, two, three, four even five clicks!
Even though I setup the Degauss app to map all those to play/pause, it sometimes it still skips to the next or previous track, and sometime it won't pause or resume.
I've been looking high and low for a solution, or others hitting the same problem(s).
I did not find a solution yet.
I gone and bought the Bose Sountrue anyways as I really like the sound and the way the earbuds fit in my ear. The mic works fine when I call and receive a call (I have to accept it from the phone as the buttons do not work). I do think it is a hardware problem of the Moto G so most likely will change to a compatible phone in the future.
