The low quality of the DX products is just that, low quality. You can get such an adapter for the iPhone from more reputable brands, and while the volume buttons on a tri-button setup won't work, the middle one should. Alternatively you can make your own adapter by soldering a jack in place of the plugs on the mic/button cable you have. OR you can do what I used to do back in the iPhone 3GS days and open the Bose headphones and solder a new cable with mic directly to the speakers. If the IE2 are anything like the Bose IEMs I've done this to, it's not a hard thing to do.

Alternatively, there are Bluetooth adapters out there. The Jabra Clipper and the Nokia BH111 are two of the most interesting looking ones out there right now IMHO
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Flowyk:
edit: I was right - mic and gnd are changed ... your ground goes throught mic and so it have low power (cause mic works that way) ... if you press button you short mic and ground so it will work like intended

OMTP and CTIA standards are to blame

http://www.fairchildsemi.com/news/2012/1202/021312_Audio-Jack-Detection-Switch.html

you can use extension cord (for 4pin 3.5 jack) with changed mic/gnd or solder it in adapter (that is the easy way - finding cable with 4pin female is hero mission if you cant access ebay)

I have akg K350 they are for iPhone and now I have opened the control - the control is based only on the mic+gnd connector ... research in progress

you mean like the samsung hs3000? the official bluetooth stereo headset has support for custom 3.5mm headphones, an integrated microphone, play, skip forward, backward buttons, volume control, ptt, equalizer and a clip to attach it to your clothes. it has everything you guys want and has been available all along.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] D3_:
I was looking for something like this too, the only options I could find were really cheap ones for a couple of $ or ones over £15 with crappy reviews.

In the end I found this and bought it because it was a decent price and the same brand as my earphones (jays)

It comes with a single earphone you can plug into it, or you can use any other earphone.

I also installed the JAYS headset control app from the play store and you can customise the controls from there.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bbolgar:
If I understand what you are actually looking for...it's the HTC HS U350 headset. You can use plug in your own earphones to it, and has a functional control button (one). Works well with the SGS2 and pretty cheap.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] buxz777:
how is build quality though?

ive used the griffin one called ''smart talk'' but that lasts about 1-2 months everytime and costs about £15

ive tried the cheap chinese ones but the microphone quality is abysmal even if they do only cost £3

ive tried a genuine samsung one but that had the connections wrong and quality was terrible untill you pushed the function button then it become normal but you couldnt control anything with the function button

iam thinking the jays one or the htc one look pretty good

i like wired controls as they dont run out of battery like bluetooth headsets and dont drain battery like bluetooth headsets :-)

i need a solid one though because iam fed up paying griffin £15 every 1-2 months and iam a posty so use my phone all day as a music player and the mail bag can cause strain on the wire across my chest
[Galaxy S II Accessories] zliffer:
hi mate,

where you bought this? i cant find it on ebay or other local shops, how is its quality build?

Thanks ;)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] bbolgar:
I bought it in a phone shop in Hungary, but as I can see, you can buy it on amazon as well.

For me, one of these lasts for about 9-12 months, though I use them every day, phone in my pocket etc.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Fevves:
For what it's worth I had 2 Samsung extension cables lying around for older phones, where it would work miracles, but on SGS2 it simply acts up like almost any of these (blame Samsung for changing things around and making them incopmatible in a year or so). I feed up and bought me Jay a-Jays One+ and never looked back. Good build quality and good sound, mic working as it should and apk is doing the rest for my preference and usage.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] D3_:
I don't think I can comment on the durability of the jays ones yet since I've only had them for just over a month (since the end of may) but I've used them almost daily since I bought them and have had no problems yet.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Chef_Tony:
again, i can only recommend the original samsung hs3000. it offers the most features of the available stereo bluetooth headsets with phone capabilities, and at about 20 pounds, it is just as cheap as those lousy 3rd party aftermarket headsets but obviously is much better.

i have had it for about 7 or 8 months now and the battery life is still great. with 1 hour of music a day and another 1-2 hours of connected standby with the occasional call i can get through almost a week without recharging (if only the same thing were true with the phone itself :)).
[Galaxy S II Accessories] buxz777:
its a nice headset dont get me wrong ive owned two of them however the call button is huge and it always accidently calls someone for me because there is no lock on the call button and it is so easy to press by mistake , the amount of people i called by mistake was unreal

also the battery life isnt the best , about 6 hours mx music playback , bearing in mind i can work an 11 hour day , it wont even make it through a working day for me playing music all day (iam a posty and music all day is vital) so that means that iam then carrying around a bluetooth headset that has no battery and leaves me with a phone and headphones with no mic which is pretty useless for a handsfree situation :-)

yu may love the samsung bluetooth adapter and thats great but for me it wasnt what i want/need and was pretty much useless for me if it cant even make it through the working day and that call button is huge and right on the front where it can easily be pressed

so yep its a nice bluetooth headset if thats what you need but i think the o/p and people like me no it exsists , dont like it or it doesnt fit our needs and we want a wired adapter so we can use our own headphones yet control our music and speak through them as well :-) iam sure if we wanted a bluetooth headset then the thread title would be different dude :-)

have nice evening and thanks for the suggestion again but its just not what we are after :-)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Chef_Tony:
ah, ok. i didn't know you already had it. i thought my previous post was overread and i thought to suggest it again ;)

you are right, the big call button and some other minor things might not be for everyone. although, if battery life was that bad for you, i would suggest plugging the original headset with microphone in the hs3000, so you'd have bluetooth as long as it lasts and still having a 2nd option. without carrying 2 separate sets of earphones.

however, it is too late now apparently.

I want to unlock my boot loader but can't manage to connect my phone in fastboot mode.

I am using flashtool and following the instructions on what to do, when it asks me to connect phone via usb holding the menu key nothing happens! i have held the button down for ages and tried a few times!

I have tried some other methods but still no luck, flashtool is the only program that seems to respond to what i am doing but i get stuck halfway.

Any advice would be great.

Some Android Jelly Bean boot animations can already be found in the forums, so I thought: let's resize it for our Nexus One (HDPI) and share it.

These sample GIFs are smaller and in lower quality than the actual boot animations.

V1:

Download V1

Download flashable V1

V2:

Push with ADB, or move manually e.g. with Root Explorer. Permissions should be set to rw-r--r--.

N.B. Animated GIFs play smoothly in Google Chrome, not smoothly in Internet Explorer 9. Don't know about other browsers.

And what are the diferences between the 2 versions ?

Good job too
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] tommert38:
The difference between the two is that V1 goes from black, 1 animation, to black, 1 animation, to black etc.

V2 is from black to infinite animation. Never return to black again.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuno Oliveira:
This is a new one for me...

My wife Desire is on a weird bootloop. I can get to bootloader, but don't have access to recovery. Tried to flash a new one, no effect.

Last time something like this happened, nothing worked, so as adviced here, I switched to stock hboot, downgraded, and ran a RUU to full stock.

This time, tried to change hboot to stock, but as soon as I send fastboot reboot-bootloader it goes to an endless boot loop on white HTC screen.

Tryed running RUU with CM/ r2 hboot, but on first reboot to bootloader, it got also stuck on boot loop.

Sorry, my phone is HD, Wife's just Desire.

I know it should be stock, but just cant change hboot... I was trying to return to stock, then downgrade hboot, but when rebooting bootloader is goes to a bootloop, wont go back to bootloader, and hboot stays the same.

Trying the RUU com CM7 was a desperate measure...

Yes, I can access bootloader by pressing volume down+power, or directly to fastboot by back+power.

In fastboot, I can run every command, flash hboot, flash recovery, etc, but when I choose reboot bootloader, it enters a bootlopp in White screen with green HTC logo.

Is i choose power-off, same result.

I tried changing hboot:

fastboot flash hboot file.zip

fastboot erase cache (tryed it before and after rebooting bootloader)

fastboot-reboot bootloader

Instead of rebooting to bootloader, I get thr bootloop...

The RUU process don't even start, because in the process it trys to reboot the phone into bootloader...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuno Oliveira:
Done that before posting this topic, tryed every solution available on the topic, no result.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
just to check, you should be flashing an hboot.img, not a .zip file.

instructions on alpharev:

- fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img (where 'bravo_alphaspl' is the name of your file)

- fastboot reboot-bootloader

- fastboot erase cache

you should see a 'success!' message or something like that in the command window if you manage to flash it

also make sure you verify the md5 sums of any hboot before flashing them (look for md5check online)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:

before flashing ruu do this:

Reboot into fastboot via vol dn+power

Then...

Flash an RUU that wipes every bits in your phone then return to shop.(If it's still in warranty or else buy a One X:cool::cool::cool::cool: )

OR...

Download a flashable RUU ZIP, place it onto ur sdcard and reboot into bootloader. It should work if you've got the correct file. If u don't know how there's thousands of guides on Google.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muellersmattes:
You should be able to run a RUU on a custom hboot if you flash the downgrader before. Maybe that works? It should just change the hboot version number.

When charging direct from sunlight it charges the same as your standard 1amp plug would sometimes a little faster, so from 0=100% in a couple of hours if there's good sunlight.
