[Q] stock samsung headset controls not working

Hi,
My samsung provided headphone controls are not working. But I can use it as a headphone, thats about it. Is there a way I can debug if its s/w or h/w problem.
I tried an N8 headset and that didnt work either, but I was not sure if it supposed to or not.

i had same probs with bt headsets and the problem was the stock music apk. installed winamp and everything works. try

It is not just with music. Mic does not work as well, so can't use the headset for voice calls

I had the same problem with the Mic on my Samsung headset. Earphones worked fine, but the Mic sounded like there was a short in the wire. I know it sucks, but just bite the bullet and buy a new pair.

I guess I have to buy another set. disappointing to see such low quality standards from Samsung.
Any recommendations for headsets which work well with Android?

Adapt Sound Working With Wired Headset??

I have tried to make the Adapt Sound work with phone calls on my wired headset and it just doesn't seem to be an option. Anyone know how to make this work??

Curious if it would be possible to get adapt sound to work with Bluetooth headphones?

Didn't check the date on this, but no it won't work on bluetooth and to start the program I had to make a widget. Hope there is an update because they made my wired headphones sound a lot better.

What makes wired headphones and even blue tooth sound the best is Viper4android imo.. It literally turns your headphones into magic :sly::thumbup:
I'm on 4.3 And using this from the Play store

Bluetooth music sound.

Is it me or does anyone notice that when connecting to Bluetooth the sound of music is really degraded. Does anyone know if there is some sort of fix for this. It kind of bugs me.

I've noticed this too. It sounds screechy at points in some songs.

Anyone else have any input on what to do. My stupid aux port is wonky now and I would really love to get crisper Bluetooth

You could try viper4android, it helped out my bluetooth quality. It won't probably sound as good because BT compresses the music a second time vs the jack.

Different Bluetooth devices I think sound different.
For example, streaming to a pair of Plantronics BackBeat Bluetooth headsets sound not as good or as crisp as streaming to a Bose Mini Soundock.
OK, fine, one's a headset versus a speaker. But then I also have a WiRevo Bluetooth headset and the Plantronics sounds much better.
Having said all that, my $10 pair of wired Samsung headsets sound better than my Bluetooth headsets.

I would have to disagree. It seems no matter what I connect to I get the same sound. I find it weird cause my droid RAZR HD sounds so crisp but the g2 is so bad

Can Essential phone stream audio to two Bluetooth devices at once?

Hi all! When I had Galaxy S8, I was able to stream audio to 2 Bluetooth speakers at once. What about the essential, is it able to do it?

There is no setting for it like it was on S8(Dual audio toggle). Basically on Essential, when I connect one speaker, then try to connect the second one, the 1st speaker disconnects.

Hopefully Essential adds this feature with Oreo
