2.5 headset
I have an o2 XDA Atom Exec and got an o2 in-ear stereo headset with it.
That headset is now faulty, one side no longer works and i cant determine where the problem is.
Anyways, i want an in-ear headphones to use with the pda mainly to listen to audio rather than to make calls.
I tried connecting it with 3.5mm headphones with an adapter but with any movement of the adapter, the pda would automatically stop the audio and load dial the first number on the dialed list. Its very annoying.
I tried both the small stick type adapter and the wire adapter with the same result.
So now i'm after an in-ear stereo 2.5mm headset or a solution to stop it from going to the phone mode.
Any help ?
Thanks
is it work fine be4?
perhaps There is some short circuit in your headphone itself or maybe in jack port. trying use another headphone to identify the problem
oftenly headphone for mobile has 4 intersection in its jack. and common music headphone only have 3 intersection, I think use the 3 intersection jack should be fine
you can use the nokia 2.5mm headsets. they are like the OEM ones but they sound better. they both use the 3 ring jack, instead of the more standard 2 ring jack.
I brought the AT&T version of the Glide and it didn't come with a wired headset. I've tried a headset for a Galaxy S, but the buttons didn't work. Could anyone with the Rogers headset ( I think it comes with one) share the model number, or if anyone else has a working let me know where I can source one?
Thanks!
I have the headset in my hand that you are mentioning but I do not see any model number anywhere to help you out. All I see is a Samsung logo on each ear piece as well as a Large L or R. On the Wire where it splits from 1 to 2 wires (1 for each ear) there is a small Made in China written on it. No other writing can be seen.
Damn, thanks anyway

Good idea except it is slightly more expensive....Depends on the person's budget.
i think you can get a sony one for under 50 dollars torugh ebay. and its prety good. and the model that i have i can exgane the ear plug it self to other earphones.

Interesting I did not know that the PLAY and Forward/Revers works from a Wired headset. That is good to know.
Thanks.
I bought these Samsung earbuds and use them along with Jays Headset Control from the Play store. Thanks to the app the one answer button can handle all music controls and even initiate voice actions.
Here are some from Samsung:

Didn't tried them, but since they're said to be made for the Captivate Glide, they should work.
Finally got around to grabbing the HTC ones and they're working fine. Audio quality is half decent too.
Desire headset isn't working on calls for me. I hear fine but the other side says the sound is terrible.
Hope this helps
Samsung galaxy one and newer Samsung phones use two different 3.5 mm jack
The newer jack like on gs2&3 are more standards. The remote doesn't work because on gs1 it's wired different.
As of today
Samsung
Htc
Sony (not Sony Ericsson)
Use the same Standards 3.5mm jack
So of buy a htc ear headphone it work on all 3 companies
( i don't know about other companies)
The model no of the headset that comes with captivate glide rogers is GH59-10419E.
Any mention of headset in the glide manual talks about micro USB.
(Drowning in google search results, most of which don't apply [Why do they assume if you want an adapter you want a crappy / cheap earbud headset too?]. So posting here to start from a list of those who have a glide and specific experience!)
Messages here seem to indicate that standard 3 connector, 2.5mm cordless phone headsets work. Can anyone confirm?
(I tried a friend's 3.5mm headset, got audio, but only for media not for anything else, per playing with settings / audio. It also has an additional doohickey / adapter where the headphones plug into a mic adapter, which in turn plugs into the 3.5mm jack instead of the headphones, directly - when using that not even media came through.)
(And even when audio came through, the navigator voice didn't come through, as it did not on a bluetooth headset. I can't hear the navigator across the car - how to get it to play to a headset?)
Source of a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter known to work?
Or 2.5mm to micro usb adapter?
Let alone, pc headset, 2 x 3.5mm, to micro usb adapter?
Thanks for any pointers / good search terms to known good working beasties, drowning in search results.
I need yet another crappy headset like I need ... druther just use one I already know and like and adapt it to the glide.
I'm guessing an adapter would need buttons on it for talk (and / or volume?).
I see on amazon there's a straight micro usb to 3.5mm adapter however I suspect it would be audio only (yes?), and worried that since it's a solid doohickey, not two ends separated by wire, that some end would get easily broken.
Advice, thoughts, experiences?
A110q, Have tried many headphones like Nokia CoLoud Pop, digi flip, etc. The catch is that, you will have to press the button on the headphone to get proper sound.
Any headphone without mic and/or remote works fine but one thing that I have noticed that the in box headphone has mic and button and it works fine, just that it sucks.
Micromax is well known through out the country so I believe I am not the only one with this issue?
So is there any fix for it?
currently using 4.2.1
Never heard of Micromax before, it's probably popular outside of US?
But either way, some older phones use TRS jack (tip-ring-sleeve), while headphones with in-line remote/mic have TRRS connector (tip-ring-ring-sleeve) - they have an extra contact ring on the connector for in-line remote signal. Your phone has that TRS type of jack which doesn't work with TRRS style headphones. You need to buy TRRS to TRS 3.5mm adapter to solve your problem
Is it possible to use a headset that I use on my PC with the Nexus 5x? I can't seem to find anything definitive on this subject. Most forums talk about inline mics with controls, not a pc headset.
I've tried connecting a couple headsets to my phone (4pole 3.5mm) but the mic does not work during phone calls (only mic based app that I've tried). I can hear the other person just fine though.
Am I just SOL? Any work arounds?
I'd like to use a pc headset since the quality is far better than an inline mic, especially with a proper mic boom.

Most desktop headsets use two plugs - one for mic and one for stereo headphone. I have an adapter that is the opposite: it allows me to use a phone headset that works with the 5X, etc, with a desktop. It has a single female headphone jack that has 4 connections: Left, Right, Mic, and ground. What you need is most likely the opposite: two female jacks (one for mic, one for headphones) and a single standard cell phone plug with the 4 connections. For example, something http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00ENFA3GO.
But now, some PCs have the same combination mic/headphone jack as cell phones. Those should work, I believe, as I've used the phone headsets with some PCs.
One thing to keep in mind. When you press the button on the headset while talking, it will mute your voice; you need to hold the button down a second or two to hang up. Still, it should work until you press the button.
.......My pc headsets are 4pole on a single 3.5mm plug. There are no buttons on these headsets like phone headsets have.

I bought a Y cable that split the connector into two connectors one for Microphone

I notice it's not using that when I tested it out with a recorder that suppose to use microphone jack to record audio. All it does is use the built-in microphone. The phone is not doing this automatically.

I have the Huawei Mate 10 Pro with external DAC and it can do this without any issue. So I decided to test the and found out audio work but again external microphone is not being use. It continues to use the built-in Microphone. I'm guess its there but not set.
