[XPERIA X8 Accessories] DrMokusatsu:
I just got my X8 today and tried using it with my aftermarket iPhone ones and found they didn't work at all.

It works with the included headphones of course, but they're not very good (they don't even hold in my ears very well, which is a worry when I'm hoping to use them while running or cycling) and it works with ordinary (no microphone) 3.5mm headphones.

The plug of the iPhone headphones looks similar to the one of the Sony headphones but for some reason the X8 completely ignores them, it doesn't even send sound to the earphones let alone take microphone input.

Meanwhile, the Sony ones work on my iPod but they're extremely quiet.

Can someone confirm that this is in fact true generally, not just for my (two pairs of) iPhone headphones which I tried?

Is there any way I can get iPhone headphones to work with it (desirable because these earphones are easy to find and buy, relatively cheap and with wide choice) or do I have to stick with special Sony ones?

A major reason behind me getting my new phone was that I was sick of the crap Nokia pulled with my old phone requiring proprietary headphones with their connector. It's nice that the X8 works with standard non-microphone 3.5mm earphones, but what's the deal with microphone ones?

I use this nokia headphones for my xperia. Mic works as well as call button. All other nokia headphones with volume control won't work!

Xperia has unique jack for headphones with music controls...and I hate them for that! Original ones for music player are too expensive :(

Stock X8 headphones are sh%t.

Previously, I had a SE W810i Walkman and I must say, that hearing to the music (with stock headphones) was a real pleasure - very close to iPhone IMO.

So, when I bought X8, I was truly unsatisfied.

Then I decided to buy OEM SE MH810 stereo - AFAIK it comes with Xperia X10 mini Pro. That was a good choice - quite goood sound quality and I can control music player app (volume up/down, next/previous, play/pause).
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] ceanth:
I bought the mh810 and i use them while cycling.

The headphones are excellent. Its a shame they don't work on the big x10 :(

I got mine for £12 off ebay

Has anyone tried something like this - bluetooth stereo headphones?
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] tegzie:
i used to use blue-tooth stereo headphones on my mobile previously but a different model from those. i found there was quite high battery drain, but that might have been just my phone..
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] UAL4588:
Confirmed. SE stock does not work with IPods, well you could make it work by pulling the connector out a little. It's due to the speaker part of the connector is differently recognized by SE and Apple. My apple headphones broke down a long time ago so can't test.
[XPERIA X8 Accessories] sanefirst:
OEM SE headphones that come out of the box with W810i work pretty well, but the wire is short.

Skullcandy In-Line Mic FMJ and Titan

Hello everyone, I've bought a X8 recently and have enjoyed alot. I have rooted it and installed CyanogenMOD 6.

Since I listen to alot of music I'm researching a headphone with in-line mic that has superior music quality then the stock options. And skullcandy looks like a cool and good quality product, so I started researching alot but without success about the compatibility issues on X8 and 11mm drivers on both Titan and FMJ from SC earbuds.

Anyone knows if it works properly? I'm afraid of buying and having same issues as X1 and X10 users with stock firmware that have to clip they're in-line mic buttons to use it properly.

Thanks for the time,

And great forum!

[XPERIA X8 Accessories] neo_na:
If you are looking for great music experience, just get a 3.5mm earphone like the white one in the picture, make sure to buy a good quality one or the music quality will be compromised. Actually these are called earphones or earbuds or canal phones.

You can also buy stereo headphones (the ones with a head band). When it comes to good music quality, I think these are really good. But make sure to check the impedance level when you are buying these types. For a mobile phone or any portable music player usually, you should purchase a headphone with a maximum impedance of 64 ohms.

I need to retire my old Moto S305 set soon. What should I get? Or if there is a compelling reason to get a wired set with inline mic let me know. Whatever it may be it will need to handle sweat- I wear mine while working out. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
None of the stereo bluetooth headsets are going to be sweat proof. Some are sweat resistant though. If you're worried about sweat, you can get a 3.5mm bluetooth adapter for $25 to work with a 3.5mm headset designed for working out.
[EVO 4G Accessories] sdc177:
Yeah, perhaps I should have worded that differently. I doubt my S305s are rated as sweat proof or even sweat resistant but they have lasted a couple years. They still work but the plastic is starting to warp and I'm sick of the foam ear padding detaching as it's a pain to repack it in there.

So I want something that is as durable as they were. I don't mind buying a new set every couple years.

Do you have a link for that adapter? I'd like to take a look.
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
Jabra A120s: http://www.amazon.com/Jabra-A120s-Bluetooth-audio-adapter/dp/B000KVWNR2/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

The foam padding occasionally pops off. Not too hard to repack. Just use a nail file or something similar to pop the ring just outside one of the speakers. The foam padding just wraps around it. Then snap the ring back into place. Takes like 5 mins or less.
[EVO 4G Accessories] sdc177:
Thanks for the advice on my headset. Works much better than repacking without removing the ring like I was attempting!

But your link....I don't think thats the correct adapter for the job. But I'm sure I can find the appropriate item if I decide to go that route.
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
If the padding comes off often, just superglue the padding to the ring. That's what I did to my Motorola S305 headphones.
[EVO 4G Accessories] lacrossev:
are you guys running aosp or sense with your S305s? I've used a pair with my BT audio devices for awhile but i get skips when i'm not in line of sight (phone behind me in my cycling jersey) and i'm trying to see if anyone else has similar issues.

For the sweat resistant headset question, what about the moto S9HD? they're marketed as being sweat resistant i believe. Having used S305's i think you're already used to having the wraparound band behind your head. Only difference between the two is that one is a headphone and of course the S9HD are earphones.
[EVO 4G Accessories] linhpham2:
I'm using Sense. When I'm working out I use cheap $10 headphones with a headphone jack.
[EVO 4G Accessories] SilverStone641:
I don't get this. Why would you buy a bluetooth adapter for a device that already has bluetooth built in??

Regardless, i have one of those adapters for my ipod and it works perfectly
[EVO 4G Accessories] sdc177:
I think he meant a Bluetooth receiver/adapter for regular headphones to plug into. That's why I questioned his link.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jtemple42000:
I use these at work. I haven't had any problems with them. The headset that comes with it is a little short, but it has a 3.5mm headset jack so any pair of wired headphones would work. It also has a built in FM tuner so you can listen to the radio too.

What is the best radio for the dinc. And what real does the radio help with. Sorry but I'm not too familiar with the radio. :-)

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
The best radio is the one that gives you the best overall combination of signal strength and battery life. No one but you can answer which one will work best for your individual circumstances. If you want a definitive answer, there is no substitute for giving each version a test drive and seeing which one suits your needs.

That being said, I'd emphatically advise against messing with the NAND until you're more familiar and comfortable with what it entails.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Epicardium:
For starters, you might want to tell us what radio you currently have. (Settings > About Phone)

Speaking as someone who also has poor reception most of the time (at home, I stick around -103dB signal), I had upgraded to the supposedly latest and greatest EVO radio. BUT, I kept dropping calls. Dropped back to the Incredible baseband ...09.01 and haven't had a dropped call since. It was very repeatable. Many people swear by the EVO radio though, so as others have said...try them out for yourself. It's not hard to do, and I believe the chance of bricking your phone is pretty minimal. Read up on it though.

Just to make it really clear, make sure your phone is fully charged. During the flash

DO NOT

pull your battery for anything!!! Even if you think your phone is frozen or shut off. If you do your phone will be instantly bricked.
