Volume Control on Original Earphones - Touch HD General

Hi,
Are you supposed to be able to control the volume from the earphones on the HTC Touch HD? I have my headphones plugged in and when playing music every time I press the button on the earphones it does nothing, or if I press and hold the button it tries to voice dial. Although the button seems to toggle I cant see anyway of adjusting the volume.

You cant. You can use a bluetooth A2DP headset which usually has its own volume control (not remote control for the winmo "mixer") but then you'll sadly get worse sound quality

Low volume when using phone problem

Hi
I have an odd problem with my XDA2s.
If I play a media file the speaker and wired headset volume is fine.
If i make or receive a call the volume is very low (even when set at maximum on both the XDA and the wired headset).
Has anyone seen this problem before or is aware of a fix?
Cheers,
The in call volume level isn't controlled by the sliders at the top of the screen but by the volume hardware slider on the side of the phone during a call. Try just pushing it up during a call.

iPhone headset volume control

I have a pair of Sony headphones that have a controller designed to work with an iPhone/iPod. The middle (play/pause/forward/backward/end call button) work just like the original Nexus one headset, but the volume controls don't work. Is there a possibility of making an app, modified Music.apk or driver that would enable this volume control, or does one already exist? I've searched these forums, Google's forums and some other forums and found nothing.
There's an app called RemoteVol that allows you to adjust volume by long pressing on the previous track and next track buttons. It was designed for the default N1 headset, though I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work with third party headsets.
I'm guessing that HTC didn't think to include volume controls in the headset design, perhaps because there's already the volume rocker on the side of the phone.

I tried that, the download link was dead and it wasn't on the market.

works well with my htc headset
I'd like to point out that the Nexus One headphones don't control volume.
Continuing on, as you said, the volume buttons do nothing (on other pair remotes I have)
Remote Vol doesn't work in this case- I'm using Sony headphones using the Apple button control design.
I guess your only option then is to use the stock headset that came with the phone, or just use the volume rocker.
If you or someone you know is handy with a soldering iron, you can perform a simple mod to the stock headset so that you can plug in third party headphones. You just have to cut off the stock ear buds above the remote, then solder the wires into a 3.5mm audio jack.

Stock headset works ok playing music while headset button is pressed

As the topic says it plays normally with bass and all while I hold the headset button down due to swapped mic/ground placement (hardware).
That's what I've been mentioning multiple times now and I don't know when they will fix it. There must be a way, I want to use my V-moda Remix Remote.

Lg headset

Hi is there any way to set buttons on headset for example long pres to change track, i tried set up this in poweramp, but is not working, I can still only control volume via buttons

Problem with Bluetooth devices controlling phone's volume?

This is a unique problem I've never seen on any other device. When I connect to a Bluetooth speaker (like the Aukey SK-S1), pushing the volume buttons changes the Bluetooth volume of the phone. This means that the speaker jumps volume steps two at a time.
For the earphones I use (Tronsmart S5), they also do double steps when controlling volume with the phone (they don't have their own volume control IIRC) this means either they're quiet or they're a bit too loud for office work, no intermittent step. Very annoying. Is this an Essential Phone problem or one with stock Android? My old Huawei devices do not do this with either Bluetooth accessory.
