I have now tried a couple of different earphones and also a couple of earphone button apps, but I still can't skip tracks with the mic button double tap - the phone instead re-dials the last used phone number.. I am beginning to think it may be a fatal flaw in the phone.
Any help here would be appreciated.
Thanks

I got a set of urbeats bundled with the phone. They allow the skip track and other features perfectly.

With mine, I got a similar set but it was not branded as urbeats.
Did yours have more than 1 button, ie. A dedicated skip track button, or do you have to double tap the singular mic button like me?
Are you using the default music player?
Thanks

Here is a pic of the controls. Works on the default player.
Can test a few more players if you like.
Thank you very much for your help. I now know what I need to at last get the track change stuff working.

Where did you purchase these if you don't mind my asking? I've never seen beats that say they're specifically for HTC phones..
I got them free from Phones4u.

I also have the urbeats headphones and the next and previous tracks buttons work perfectly on both the stock player and the Google music player. On the pocketcasts app they skip forward or backward 20 seconds. In short these headphones seem to work perfectly with the HTC One and have great sound quality too. I also got them free from phones4u.

The urbeats headphones were only given to the first 500 people who preordered the phone. I'm sure the op is talking about the headphones that come bundled with the phone itself. The headphones that come in the box don't allow track skipping, only play, pause & accept calls

If the remote is built into the headphones it should work yes? I have the earpod from apple will they work? (or other apple headphones with remote built in)
Also have a white pair of in ear beats with remote
Will these work to change the songs??

I have tried one time a Iphone 4 headphone on a HTC Device and it works perfectly. The only issue is the volume up & down doesn't work. But play, pause, next, previous track, mic all work flawlessly.

Beats Wireless work perfectly with Poweramp ^_^

On an iPhone, you click the headset's button once and music plays/pauses. Double-squeeze and it skips to the next track.
Anyone able to get this to work on the Captivate? If so, what app?
I tried Captivate's default music player app and doubletwist but it can only play/pause when using the headphone button.
not possible
Yes.. it is possible.
The player 3 (aka cubed) does this. Click headphone button to play/pause... double click to skip to next song... and long click to bring the player up to the front. Works great.
(From my Captivate via XDA app)
Most of the 3rd party media players let you do this... I personally use MixZing!
Damn I really miss this. I guess 3rd party music player for me it is.

Got double-squeeze to work on "3" (cubed) app. The interface needs getting used to, but at least it works.
Thanks for the tips!
Saw yesterday while browsing some apps, there is an add on or whatever for the stock music player and headphones that allows skipping,search,etc. Didn't get around to downloading it so can't say how well it works.

B-tunes also does this. At least the single click to play/pause. Never tried the rest with it. I don't have much time with b-tunes.
Works with Pandora, as well as the Vanilla 2.1 music player (just installed the .apk for it, titanium uninstalled the galaxy s player.
in winamp, single click plays/pauses, double skips to the next track, and long squeeze brings up the winamp player.
The stock music player + stock headphones works like this. I am not sure if itll skip to the next song, but I know it will pause/play
Sorry to revive an old thread!
This is a different device but i have a similar question (cant start new thread yet).
I have Samsung Galaxy S3 and all im trying to do is skip back a track using the supplied earphones. I cant get it to work can someone help?!
You should try clicking three times. The clocks should be done in rapid succession of each other.

Thanks for reply. I have tried that but it just skips forward. Looking around the net it looks like its not possible! Seems crazy! Wonder if it will be a jellybean addition? Have found a program that you can use to program buttons but still seems like a crazy feature not to be integrated!
In my experience the click to go back is usually just one more than the clocks to go forward. Please try again. Also what brand headphones are you using?

Is it possible to use for example, Bose IE2 headphones, inline volume controls and/or middle button? A lot of headphones come standard with the 3 button controls on them. I find it hard to imagine that Amazon overlooked this potential feature or that it would be impossible for it to be modified to work in some way. Looking forward to feedback.

bbanghyung,
If the volume control is Passive and does not send volume control commands back to
the Kindle it will work. If it is an Active volume control and expects to communicate
to the Kindle, no go, it will not work. Either way, it does not hurt the Kindle to try.
The Kindle is even missing a MIC Input with the jack which is a real pet peeve of mine.
I can not believe they have made a Tablet without MIC input - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. So,
the certainly would not do an active interface on the Kindle. Bummer, I know.
Just got it to work in one app. It appeared a little buggy though. That's unfortunate about support for the Mic. I can't understand that. Thanks as usual!

bbanghyung,
Do you remember which application worked with the Bose Headphones? I found an application on Google Play
named Headset Icon by Dev.Android - the application appears to work with the Bose Headsets, maybe this is
your solution? Here is a link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devandroid.headseticon&hl=en
I believe it was maple mp3. Thanks for the suggestion ill check it out.

Sounds good, let me know.
I gave the program a whirl but no luck in using volume and/or control buttons. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I don't know if this is a new "feature" but I hate it. I listen to spotify all day at work and I don't like having my phone on vibrate when it's on my desk. Every other phone I have used would route notifications through the headset when it's plugged in but on the One it always plays through the speakers. I don't want my ringer on at work and now I am forced to keep it on silent so I'm missing texts unless I keep checking my phone.
Ppl have recommended soundabout from the play store and it has worked on other phones but it doesn't work for the One. Any advice?

I got a brand new HTC One delivered today and after turning it on to try the audio and check the difference with/without beats I realised I couldn't turn it on. Tried to plug the headphones, nothing changed, looked into the settings again not change. I tried without FM radio, HTC Music, Youtube app, Google Play Music app and the end result was always the same, no change.
Does anyone knows how to fix this? I search and haven't found any solution on XDA neither in the whole web.

Did you ever get this sorted?
Hey guys,
I got a factory unlocked HTC One from the official online retail store. Lately, I discovered that my phone only works with the beats earphone that bundles with the phone.
I have tried to plug in other earbuds but the phone just doesn't detect/register it -- sound still comes out from the phone speaker. Those other earbuds are working fine on my PC and MP3 player.
Currently, I am using an app called Soundabout to remedy the problem. But I don't want to rely on that app in long run. Any thoughts or solutions on this issue? Thanks!
You should send it back

Weird thing. Just tried my One using Sennheiser's and even using those extremely cheap given in trains and both work as expected.
Have you tried those other phones in several different devices? Just to be sure...
I think you shoul contact support.
