Hi
Are every function that is supposed to work (Like next track, skip track etc) works fine in S III.
Specially with PowerAmp?
I'm not using the klipch app (seems like unnecessary functions/running processes), but still without it, it runs fine on poweramp.
Play, pause, double press for next song, triple press for previous song, all works.
With the klipch app there is a volume function by certain key presses, and it's supposed to work, but I cannot comment on that.
Edit: also auto play when inserted headset, pause song when removed headset works.
Very comfortable ear buds, nice sound, doesn't stick that well when running, can fall out, ok seal, ok noise suppression, I'd place them in the average/a bit above category

Hi,
Klipsch recently released a new Version (II) of the S4A in-ears:
http://www.klipsch.com/product/7576.../Image_S4A_(II)_Headphones_for_Android™
Unfortunately, availability in Europe seems to be rather bad. Still waiting for them to appear in Germany.
Best regards,

you can buy some sol republic headphones and use klipsch app to control everything, that's what I do
I have the S4a, the only thing that doesn't work without the app is the volume function. It works with the app(or it did when I tried it on ICS, not sure about JB) but I don't use the app

Hi, I have this earphones set with mic built in do not work with the Tab? They do work with the iphone so i know the mic works, the earphones work great with music, I can hear the callers voice but they cant hear me? Is there something I need to do? Like download the voice app for navigation??
Gracias amigos!!!
You probably didn't push the plug all the way in. It happened to me. -_-;
I have Sony headphones too and the Mic and button don't work either. I guess they're just incompatible.

dang, ok, I'm trying to convince my ex to switch with me her iPhone's earphones lol.
they work
so turns out after i bought a cheap hands free set and saw they did work, i was wondering why a cheap set do work and the nice Sony ones don't. So after sawing some of the plastic above the plug didn't make the difference, instead pushing the plug all the way in, I just pulled it our quite a bit and they do work that way, weird after everybody saying to push it very deep. LOL
Does it work on another phone? iPhone, perhaps?
I wonder if the contacts are not positioned the same way as the ones that came with the Tab.
PS: I've verified that the iPhone stereo mic headset works on the Tab just fine - and vice versa. The middle button works, but the volume button doesn't. Appearently, the volume buttons is an iPhone-specific feature.
Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has used iphone 4s headphones or the new earpods with microphone with Nexus 4. If so, can you provide some feedback in terms of whether or not the buttons and the microphone work to make calls/ use with skype, and/or use with music apps?
Thanks,
I'm also interested if they work on Nexus 4 or not as I want to buy new headphones and my favourite ones seem only to work on iDevices because of the pin assignment and are not recognized by my current phone. Would be nice if someone could check this by plugging in the original Apple headphones and check if you can listen to music with them.
I can confirm that both the middle button and the mic work just fine with the ear pods. Volume buttons don't work, as I expected.
Borrowed a pair off a friend with an iDevice.

I had have quite some problems while talking over the ear phones of earlier Galaxy Nexus and Apple Ear pods as the other person doesn't seem to hear my voice properly, whereas I have seen everything else working properly while listening the music except Volume Controls.
So if you want to buy these for calls and Voice Chatting over VOIP, I suggest to do some enough research on OMTP and CTIA for nexus 4.
for all android and blackberry devices, you can use the pause/mute and mic but volume buttons wont work as they are designed to only work on iDevices

Hello
I am looking for in-ear headphones which support play/pause, microphone and volume control. Preferably this should be accomplished by 3 buttons: middle button for play/pause and left/right buttons for volume control (just like on iOS).
I do not look for one-button or bluetooth solutions.
As I already searched on xda, I found those headphones:
thelastred said:
Here are a few that all three buttons work on one s
- urbeats (htc version )
- Sony smart headset
- Nocs NS200H-00
- Nokia purity inear ( it say one only Nokia but will work on htc one s)
I tested all of them on htc Sony Nokia lumia and Samsung galaxy phones

However, I do not know if they work with the Nexus 4 or if there are more headphones available.
Could somebody help me out here please?
I gave up looking for headphones with buttons like those because the main reason you have headphones/earbuds is because of the music or podcasts, with an occasionally call here and there...well for me anyways.
And IMO, the one button is good enough which can be found on most headphones. This "universal" button usually just plays, pauses, answers calls, and now a long press will launch google now.
However, you can add an app called Jays headset app or remotecontrol for earphones app. This will enable the number or clicks to determine certain functions like volume control. GL
the 3 button headphones dont work with this phone. It is my understanding that the devices that support the 3 button controllers have a special circuit that is not present on this phone. I have a samsung 3 button and htc 3 button headset that do not work on this phone. I have tried several of the apps that allow you to program the buttons but they did not help.
Just get a nice single button headset and be happy.
Could you recommend a good single button one? My HTC earphones are screwed and I'm looking for new ones for my nexus.

If you are looking for in ear headphones, you cannot go wrong with Kipsche or Shure's with the integrated mics. If you are on a budget, Jays One + for android is an alternative you can look at for decent in ears.
For over ears, there are so many to look at. You can look at any ones that function for "i" devices and they will work for our phones. It's that ONE button or middle button that is the only thing that you are looking for it to work with your phone.

Sigh. Thanks for the information. After no USB on-to-go and a crappy battery life now this. I wonder what will come next.
I guess I will have to look for good one button headphones and an app which supports altering the function of this button. Any recommendations for such an app?
During my time googling on this very issue i came across these:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007IPKBA4/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=AEUMIRKFWF0IJ
supposedly made by philips precisely for android. philips says: "Personalise your sound and buttons via the Philips Headset App" so..
however, and if i 'm not mistaken, they 're 1 button headphones - but as another person before me 's said, you apparently can determine what a certain number of clicks will do, so you probably can work around the issue.
i 'm probably getting a pair (not sure if i 'm going with these cause i 'm feeling like investing seeing as i 'm out and about a good chunk of my every day and am always listening to music - being a musician and an audiophile) next month - kinda tight financially atm , so when I do i 'll get back to you guys.
currently stuck w/ the apple headphones (not the earpods). mic works, middle button answers/ends calls and plays/pauses music - volume controls just won't work.
'nyways, hope it helped!

Does anyone else have a problem getting even a 1-button headset to work? It seems I can't even plug it in properly (sound is mono and without bass), and I tried really hard. I tested both an OEM headset that came with my ZTE Blade and a Sony MH650. Both used to work fine on the Blade but on the N4 - no way. Headsets without microphone (and one line less on the headphone jack) work fine.

I thought I was so smart researching this (in a non nexus 4 specific way) ahead of time, found some a 3 button headset 'made for android' by htc, and alas, only one button works. I have to go out of my way to find an apple compatible 3 button headset to work with my google branded phone? Geez.
But thanks guys for letting me know why this one won't work. :good:

No the three button headsets are far and between. I haven't seen any that work. I mean even my old N1 headsets don't work. Well the middle button works. The iPhone 3 buttons will not work either.
Just use the one button, which I actually prefer and use an app to map button presses to forward or back up. Tedious? I guess so, but I have no issues with one button headphones. I own a slew of them lol.
I can see where I misread those posts now. No 3 buttons work at all. That sucks.
But what about the people that claim that there are headphones that actually work with the three button?

up to the phonemaker..
The support for 3 buttons or not on an Android phone is up to each phonemaker. Samsung Nexus 3 works fine with 3-button headsets for Android, so does the S3, S4, and many more.. while Nexus 4 does not But the Nexus 5 does (!)
I have a Nexus 3 and 4 and I also actually think music sounds better through the Samsung made Nexus but perphaps that is just mental or the sounchip has something to do with it.
3-Button Headset for Android
I use a 3-button headset from Degauss Labs Sweden and it works and sound great (made for Android).
http://degausslabs.com
They also have a really well working headset app (works with any headset by the way) that makes buttoncontrol programmable, so you can choose what 2,3 or more clicks will do for U.

Headset App doin it for u.
No matter what headset you might want to make that react more intelligently or atleast the way you personally would like it
aka 'tailored button actions'. I recommend using any 'headset button controller app' via Google Play. The one I use - free+adfree..

I've taken a look around for info on why my headset doesn't work properly with my phone but haven't found an explanation. I've seen there are two standards for 3.5mm connectors: CTIA and OMTP. Apple and a bunch of other manufacturers use CTIA and that's what the N4 is. In theory, 'made for iPhone' headsets should work, right?
I have a pair of Urbanears with a single button and that works. The phone always uses its mic and not the headset. Any ideas why this might be?
Thanks!

Yes, if you are talking about the mic, it should work for all CTIA compatible ones. But not so for the other additional buttons such as volume up/down which might be there for the headset.
Did you get an opportunity to try any other headset with nexus 4? For me , with my Galaxy S2 , all the CTIA headsets have worked without any issues. Would be really curious if it doesn't work with N4 , when it arrives.

I got some RHA MA450s for Christmas and the microphone works and I can pause with a single click, skip with a double click and if I hold the button down I can use Google Now voice search. The volume buttons don't work though.

Well that's weird. Apple earpods work with the Nexus 4, so any headphone that says compatible with iPhone should also work.
I have a pair of Bowers and Wilkins C5's (built for iphone)
The centre button works
The mic works for calls and search.
The volume buttons do not work, but I think we all know this already right ???
I know a lot of people are reporting that their mic on some headphones doesnt work, which is weird.
Thanks for your replies.
This doesn't make much sense to me since I thought that the button controls were passed thru the mic contact so if my buttons work so should my mic. Does anyone think it could be the size of the plug? Maybe because of the shape of the phone the contacts aren't connecting properly?
Off the record,
could someone explain why the volume buttons don't work? Because I never understood this.
Is it a sw or a hw thing?

It shouldn't. SGS1 had tv-out functionality from the 3.5 mm jack due to which Samsung had made some modifications which made it incompatible with other handsets. [ I was using SGS1 before switching to SGS2, but not having the handset now. From what I know, the SGS1 handset wouldn't work with S2 as well ]
So I'm guessing no one else is experiencing the same issue as me? I'm thinking I should try to use one of the set that people have confirmed to be working to see if my socket is faulty.
I am just using the default Samsung music app, so maybe a simple player switch will suffice...
I am coming from a iPhone 5. One thing the iPhone does very well is play music. There are a copy of issues with my S4 in this regard that are driving me crazy, I am hoping you guys can help me resolve them:
1. Volume rocker on headphones does not control music volume. As far as I can tell the volume rocker just doesnt do anything at all. Is there a way to make this control music / voice levels? Very annoying having to fish for the phone to actually move the volume rocker.
2. Previous doesnt work. On the iPhone you can triple click the button on the headset to either restart the current song or go back to the previous song that was playing before. I used this quite often as i sometimes like to Binge on a particular soundtrack. This does not seem to work currently, triple pressing the button simply goes to the next song (double tap) and then pauses (single tap).
Loving the S4 so far, I definitely hope the above is something that is possible to fix though. Thanks a lot guys!
Try google play music? The volume thing worked on my s3 however I've yet to test ion s4... Also i use poweramp
sgh-i747(d2att)(sgs3) on latest cm10.1 or ultimatum
