I need headphones wired with controls?

Any one has a wires headphone that has control on it, like pause/play, skip next, call/end, volume control, like the one that iPhone have so you don't have to get the phone in the pocket just to control it?

I had been looking for one about a month ago, i came across a couple forums saying android cant actually use (iphone like)physical buttons because there's no place for it in the OS(something similar to that). Anywho, dont quote me i'm only a noob(and this is my 1st post).
But i ended up buying
thecellguru.com/Products/28106
and
newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875979005
, both of which are pretty good. The alteclansing one is better, but if too much bass is a problem for you, i would suggest the former. Both have physical buttons, press for play/pause/answer, long press for endcall, double press for next track.
Hope this helped

Skull Candy may have some like the kind you are looking for.
A few years ago when I owned my BlackBerry, I had a pair of Skull Candy headphones that allowed me to answer calls, skip songs, and adjust the volume.
It's been a few years, but it is a possibility that they still make some like that.

I use the Klipsh S4i
And they are pretty fine. The sound's quality is fairly good for headsets that price.
You also have controls which are fully operational with an iphone. For android devices, you can use the lecture, pause, next and previous song, answer calls. But you can't control the volume.
But your device's volume can probably be changed even if the screen's locked and off I guess. from within your pocket. I do that and it's really fine
hope it helps

Are they with those flat cables? I simply love flat cables just like the Beats have

Nokia has some headsets too, IIRC the one you get with an N95 is suitable for your needs..

Klipsch S4A. Confirmed to work or not?

Has it been confirmed to be working with the Epic 4G Touch?
Ive read mixed feedback.
Want to get rid of my Bose IE2's in favor of some control over the phone via headphones.

As far as I know, the double click and triple click settings do not work for calls or music.
So to answer your question, you can still use it with limited functionally, but its missing the core features.

I can confirm that double-click, triple-click and long press don't work with the Galaxy S2, which rather limits their usefulness :0(

I have to jump in here and say something. The Klipsch computer speakers they are selling at Best Buy are bad a$$. I mean they rock. Our computer is in our kitchen and it shakes the whole house. It is hands down the best 150 you can spend for computer speakers.

White SGS2 no headphones?

Just got my white sgs2 and it has no headphones wtf? From what the box says they don't come with it anyone else not get any and really pissed, that it doesn't come with any. That's one of the best things about this phone i really enjoyed there headphones last time when I had the vibrant. Makes me want to return it almost I have some Bose headphones and they are great but still wanted the galaxy s ones for straight bass, got some jvc extreme explosives on the way meanwhile.

I just got the titanium few days ago and I noticed no head phones as well. I got a G2x back in April and noticed no head phones as well. My G1 back on launch day day had came with a nice neoprene sleeve and some nice ear buds with little Android robot on them. It seems less and less comes with the phones these days.
Wonder when they will stop shipping our phones with-out a battery (sold separately or included with purchase x phone/data plan)

For reals i work for tmo and if someone was pissed about this id give them every right this is stupid to take these away from customers.

For real?? Damn that sucks because i think the headphones that came with sgs2 are pretty sick.
Cant believe that they wouldn't include them on the white one,
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk

Yea it sucks I'm going to try to get them to send me some because this is horse****. On the bright side my Bose IE2s really come alive with lots of volume compared to my amaze and sensation just wish they had the beats mod for the sgs2 it tuned music real well without use of an equalizer.

They stopped adding the headphones after November. Only the ones the got the phone at launch or up to November got them.
Sorry, if you call T-Mobile they will probably tell you they can't do anything and that its Samsung fault.
They are really nice though, lol.

Callers say phone sounds like im in a tunnel

I just got two:
Samsung Galaxy S II - Titanium from T-mobile (SGH-T989)
Not rooted, etc...But stock, as they come from t-mobile.
Voice quality is pretty bad on those two units. I can hear the other party muffed. I thought they are on speakerphone or talking thru a headset. Then the person with the other S G II noticed the same issue. I am having hard time understanding the other party in every call. I really got to focus on the conversation
Low voice volume when rocker is on max. It is hard to hear people in street noisy environment.
I talked to T-mo rep and they said that probably the phone is like this, and suggested to go to t-mo store and try one of their units. I wonder if it's the entire batch or the phones are like this.
I am coming from Google Nexus One. I wonder if Ice Cream will solve this issue or cyanogen mod 9. Is it hardware or software issue? Anyone else with similar thoughts?

Honestly, coming from a Sensation, this phone has incredible sound quality and speaker volume.
I think you should warranty both handsets.

I came from the MyTouch 4G... And the SGS2 has such better sound quality than I had with my MyTouch, and I liked the MyTouch... I think you got a bad phone... Two bad phones, if that's possible... Haha

I have the same problem. Sounds like crap. I returned my first one after about 2 days. Got another one and it worked fine for a month or so, yhen the same thing happened. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do now. I can't Stand it.

Yeah i have notice as well

i've been using it for 2+ month now, it's loud and clear
you guys must have got some duds
the other day another user asked me about the Mic, and after using compressed air to clear it out, is fine now
if you put the phone in your pants or jacket pockets often it might be stuffed

Thank you for your input.
I have no problem with my mic. The other party has no problem either, since I talk to different people, and I still have the same result. I have problem with the speaker, or the sound chip. The phones are brand new so no lint/dust in the speaker, or the mic.
I think Samsung does some changes with every different batch. This one is probably just like this. Nothing can be done. The series I am talking is: Samsung Galaxy S II – Titanium for T-Mobile, manufactured in December 2011 (no headphones in the box).
I am sure a lot of other SG2 s are fine.
The volume is on max, when I call someone (before the other party answers) ringing in the speaker is not clear or crisp, since the volume is on max.
I talked to Samsung today 12/21 and they have not hear of the issue. I talked to t-mobile on 12/20 and they have no solution either.
I guess it’s going on craigslist. Probably this will be normal voice quality for other users, and I will downgrade to Nexus S (hardware wise) until some other nexus appears at the end of the next year.

That's what it is. Talk on my phone you'll clearly see the difference. My old Sensation had horrible call quality until I ran the volume + app but then my battery started dying quickly
So I got rid of it & haven't looked back since.
This is someone coming from an unlocked iphone 4 in white (best call quality besides the Galaxy S2)
My GS2 is so clear and loud I never have to worry about hearing other callers no matter where I am. Take both phones back and have the reps at the store exchange them for you.
If they give you grief, have them make calls from your 2 handsets. Make sure they grab a demo phone to compare yours to

same
I have the same exact issue. Just got my phone a few days ago, enjoying Pandora in the car with the AUX input jack...
A call comes in, I answer, and I can't heard a damn thing! I make sure the In Call volume is set to max, still can barely hear the caller. I turn up my stereo...finish the call...then BAM! Pandora is blasting my ears off!
Incredibly frustrating!
sharko, wondering if you were able to get this resolved via exchange...?

Galaxy Player as bluetooth headset. Personal experience?

Have any of you tried using a Galaxy player as a bluetooth headset for the tablet to make phone calls? If so, how did you fare?
I'm thinking of picking up a used Galaxy player 3.6 to use as a headset paired to the 3g GN 10.1 I just ordered. I've never been a fan of bluetooth earpiece which have to remain in-ear constantly, I like the idea of answering a pocketable, phonelike alternative that I could also use to spot check emails while I leave the note in my backpack while commuting. I dont care about the performance of the player for gaming and the display size, obviously if I have the time to care about what im looking at I'd be whipping out the tablet. Just looking to see if anyone has done this and enjoyed it, or if I should just bite the bullet and buy a traditional BT headset.
Any suggestions on viable, handset-like alternative from other companies is welcome, too.

While looking into whether the GN 10.1 can be used for voice cell phone calls in the US, I stumbled across this handy - if weird - little bluetooth device.
I'll let the article on this "stylus-phone" speak for itself.

Holy crap thats cool. I might get one of those just for the sake of having all the available accessories. I'd propbably use something like that sparingly, because I'd need to A) Really keep track of that thing, and B) need to have the Tablet open in front of my to see who's calling. I'm proabably still leaning towards the Galaxy Player to to get the caller function. The 3.6 im watching on ebay is actually cheaper than the Bluetooth S Pen
I guess I go really go old school and get one of the OLD samsung Yepp mp3 players.. they had this functionality to, but with them I need a proprietary charger and I'd lose email checking. Dammit this is complicated. lol.

This would be really great to see come to fruition. I wonder if an app would need to be developed to properly pair the phone to the tablet.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

From my understanding, Its lees about an app than it is about the Bluetooth Profile. The Galaxy Players give you the proper Profile (plus earpiece and built in Mic) to do this affectively. You get caller ID, and headset functionality. You can pair phones to other phones but never have the option to set what type of profile youd like the pairing to utilize. Would/Could an app do this type of thing, or would it have to be a tweak/add to the bluetooth profile?
Lol, I never get too deep in this. When in doubt - throw money at the problem
