Q anyone carrying a good 3 button headset alternative to stock? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If so do all buttons work on g2. Would you recommend it or a different headset?
my stock ones gotten wet and sound tincanny, otherwise I would not be looking for a replacement.
Speaking of which, anyone has compared with stock ones?
edit Q was originally for klipsch, I misread it has one button.

I have the klipsch s4a ii. There is only one button on the headphones... One click play/pause. Two: skip. Three: back.
I would recommend them highly. I've used the s4 ii, s4a, and the s4a ii, and they are all good.
I really don't think you can go wrong with any similar headsets in the same price range. There is a huge selection of very good headsets on the market.

anyone know of a good three button alternative?

I still use the UR beats that came with my HTC One X a while back.
The remote works like this:
- fwd/bwd buttons >>> volume up/down
- Center button in combination with Head Set button controller > start/stop, next/previous title

ROMs With Working Headset Buttons

I've flashed pretty much every ROM in the development thread and only CM7 w/ the included kernel allows me to use my Skullcandy 50/50's headset buttons. I've used a headset button app from the market that allows you to see the incoming button presses and it only shows them using CM7. Every other ROM doesn't recognize any presses. I've also flashed Tiamat and some other kernels on CM7 and that causes the buttons not to work. Looking for any ideas about why this happens. I like CM7 but other ROMs are prettier but headset buttons are a must. Any help is appreciated.

My advice is to use a stock HTC headset I love mine and it works for every ROM I use, them skull candy headphones are nice, but they tore my boys g2 up because of the size difference in the headphone jack

Where'd you get your set? I looked online for HTC branded headsets with controls and could only find one with a micro usb plug, which I don't want to mess with.

I actually use the optional headphones that were offered for my HTC TP2. Very nice, it has rubber ear inserts, auto answer/hang up on the cord, and a very long cord. You can get them on Ebay pretty cheap now.

Do they have track control? My main concern is not having to pull my phone out of my pocket when biking to skip songs. Thanks for the suggestion.

Earphone volume

Seems very low on movies ,even tried dice player and it's the same.
Is there any way to boost it on non rooted devices running 4.2.1

Also I notice when I plug earphones in although they work I don't get an earphone symbol in status bar,same on both our N7
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Try the app earpiece in GPLAY once installed go into the apps settings and put it on 100% also if you would like you can also go into G music and then settings and then EQ and adjust your EQ to the flat setting and try that GOD BLESS YOU

Thanks for that,so should I be getting a headphone logo in the top tray when earphones in use,we have 2 n7 and it doesn't appear on either when using earphones
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
What I do to activate the app is I go to the apps and find earpiece and touch it and then it will show you volume boost and it will put five lines up in the top left corner I hope all this works for you guys GOD BLESS YOU GUYS and sorry almost forgot no it does not show any head phones just the lines also when you get the volume boost on your screen just hit your go back arrow at the bottom of your screen and that's it Bro take care and GOD BLESS YOU

Compatable headphones

The original samsung headphones have no issues whatsoever. Its just my expensive ones like klipsch and monster that seem to pop and crack at high volune when they work flawlessly on other devices... does anyone know which headphones with the 3 buttons are compatable with the gs4. So far volume controls refuse to work on monster dna earbuds and klipsch s4i headphones. Is there a certain ohm or impedance the gs4 uses. Never had this problem with my atrix... a compatable list of 3 button headphones would be greatly appreciated.

Count me in too. My cheap $10 headphones which work flawlessly on every other device crackle and pop on my S4. When I use my auxiliary cable in my car, I do not experience this. I'm going to try the Samsung headphones.
Appreciated. Ill post a compatable list after I find the correct impedance number. Also what about the volume up and down anyone know? I the only ones I know that work are the beats ear buds with the remote. They work flawlessly. Unfortunately I do not own a pair....

any units with impedance of under 15ohm will have issues; look up the specs on your buds or cans.

[Q] LG G2 3 button Headphone compatible?

Just Switched over from an iphone, which has its own 3 button "ear pods", had a nexus 4 before that. My issue with the nexus was that it wasn't 3 button compatible. And today i tried the iphones ear pods and another brand 3 button headset, only thing that worked was ability to pause/play and skip forward. is the lg g2 have the same issue as the nexus 4 where its only single button compatible?
Hi the g2 comes with a three button headset it also has a mic.

my question is though are the U.S versions 3 button compatible cause so far ive tried two 3 button headsets and the volume keys dont work
Get the QuadBeat 2. Just got mine in the mail yesterday and it has the three buttons. HSS-F530 ordered on Ebay.
Again im asking if the "U.S Version" is compatible with a 3 button headset so far ive tried 3 different headsets and they havent worked, only the pause/play option...I am NOT asking if the international version is!
just bought these and they work, headset has its in built in voice command JayBird BlueBuds X Sport Bluetooth Headphones http://www.amazon.com/JayBird-BlueB...dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

I have the t-mobile's version and the earphones that come with the Note 2 and Galaxy 4 work correctly. If you're having issues you could try to edit the generic.kl file. You can remap the earphones controls. Here's a link to a thread I came across http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34249536.

Maybe mess around with headset droid or other apps that allow customizing buttons. Might work.

Don't you have problems with controls and mic with those headphones when connected to LG G2? I get the feeling that not every time I am heard through mic in headset and also controls actually works very rarely...
Mine came with headphones that have three button remote. ...they are the LG headphones that came with the phone

So, which wired aftermarket ones work with G2? With or without an app..
I just want to pick up one because it sucks that pressing and holding volume button up/down does not skip tracks on the phone. I can't believe AT&T cheated us all out of the headphones.
Did you receive the quadBeat2's yet?
They are available both on Amazon and on ebay and on Amazon they are labeled as "LG Electronics HSS-F420B" which shows as QuadBeat, not 2.

I guess single button ones should also be OK since double tap can also add functionality as well as 3 tap, etc..
What about this:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Headset-Microphone-Controls-Packaging/dp/B00DNK9WR6/ref=pd_cp_cps_1
This is Samsung headset and it is only $7.
As I search, they keep getting cheaper:
