[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] 2mal16:
Im am running around with the over ear MDR 1 RBT, if you dont mind the size and the price they are perfect.

They run for 2 weeks without charging, sound quality is superb (for BT) and calling , music controls and microphone all work perfectly with android and any other OS i used until now (Linux, Windows).

If you press the call button it goes directly into voice activation so you can call somebody this way without having to take out your phone.

And the feature that finally made me buy them (used though since they are quite expensive) is the incredible comfort. They are light (plasticky, but well made) and the earcups are like soft cushions.

you can wear them for hours and still not feel uncomfortable.

They also include an NFC module, which lets you connect to your headphones by close proximity with your phone. The nice thing is here , it will also turn bluetooth on and connect directly to the headphones when you use NFC and when you hold it close again it will disconnect them and turn bluetooth off.

If you need more portable headphones I would recommend the on ear headphones AKG 451 (i think there is a newer model that works with android called 452). They are a lot cheaper , have great sound for the price, music controls and i think theres also a mic. They also won lots of awards and have generally good reviews.

As regards Sound the MDR 1 RBT have great mids , the AKG are more on the brighter side with a very clear sound.

However with Viper4android in the pack you are going to get the sound you like anyway but the base/headphone has to be a good one.

Which is why I would recommend these, always choose sound quality above noise cancelling! opinions may vary.

Thanks man. I already have a bluetooth modified ATH-M50 from soundprofessionals.com as a bulkier high quality set. I'm more in the market for wired portable earplugs for on the go use. Need simplicity, lightweight, comfortable earbuds, and most importantly, a decent inline mic with android controls - which is apparently hard to come by. Cheers though.

Edit: considering a wireless option too like these.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] 2mal16:
I understand, you are right if you really need the portability and low weight , eg. for doing exercise, then this is the way to go.

I wish you the best in your search, you will find some for sure.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Eason85:
I used to buy really expensive headphones to use with the Z3C, but since a lot of units have defective headphone jacks (including mine) that cut the music anytime the plug is jostled, I don't bother anymore.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Gabewithkungfugrip:
If anyone is looking for a headset with inline controls that actually work for the z3c, I can confirm that the "Amazon Premium Headphones" have a working 3 button controller (volume up, volume down, and play/pause/voice command). These are not for audiophiles; they are for someone looking for a daily on-the-go listening to music and taking calls set. The earbuds are comfortable enough and didn't cause me any discomfort after a couple hours of wearing. Sound quality is pretty damn good for the price point. They don't form a seal on your ear canal like soft tip buds, so you can actually hear enough of whats going on around you, and you can talk to people without having to take them out. You might consider that a con, but for being on the go in public, it is nice to be able to listen to music and be aware of your surroundings. The only annoyance for me with these is the tangle free flat wire below the inline controller. A lot of people seem to love flat wired headphones for the tangle resistance, but for me, it adds weight and bulk making it more uncomfortable to actually wear. I would opt for 15 seconds of untangling over the hours of wearing a bulkier cable any day. All in all, if you want a step up from the OEM headset with more controls these are a great choice.

i'm using bose qc25. i used the qc15's for a bit but they were defective so for 35$ extra i had them replaced by the new qc25's they are amazing. improved noise canceling much better wire (still doesn't raise or lower androids volume >: O), better bass, and over all better audio quality (slightly).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Michealtbh:
I got a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-M20X last week and can't praise them enough. They're pretty cheap (£31 delivered), they look good imo and most importantly the sound quality is fantastic. They're comfortable enough to wear for long periods too.

http://amzn.to/1IIHOUx
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] :
I've got a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50x that I use together with my Z3C, and they're great. Isolates sound from the headphones and surroundings very well, and the sound quality is decent.

As for in-ears I'm using a pair of Sony Ericsson LiveSound HiFi that I've resoldered to work on regular 3,5mm jacks. The sound is great, and you can get these for like 8 GBP on Amazon (but you need some solder and a solder iron too).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] clouds5:
I second that, have the same. They are some very good earpieces for the price.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] ray_J13:
Sony XBA A2 is good all rounder,crisp treble and thumping bass, with mic and one button for music control.

Controls

I just got the Z3C and really happy with everything so far. I am, however, disappointed that my Samsung headphones with controls don't work correctly. The volume buttons work fine and the microphone seems to as well, but the Play/Pause/Action button acts as the Volume + button. Has anyone experience this?

What would your recommendations be for portable headphones with controls and microphone?

Thank you in advance.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Sadman Khan:
I would recommended you to go for MH1c. Pure value for money.

AptX Sound Quality

I bought a Sennheiser Urbanite XL Wireless and the sound quality and the battery life is really good since its AptX and Bluetooth 4.0 compatible.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] yacloo:
I bought sony sbh80 as wireless counterpart of MH1 and sound quality is great with aptx
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] vasiulla:
Hi, I'm using my apple earpods with my Z3c, its really awesome and sounds good in all tracks,

I use this bcoz it perfectly fits in ears, mic and play/pause button works good.

However, Volume up and down buttons are not working..
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] cyphomatic:
I'm using the brass Sony MDR-EX650AP

Followed the buying advice from HI-Fi: http://www.whathifi.com/awards/2014/in-ear-headphones

Very very great sound and overall experience in combination with the z3c. Also very pleasant to have a mic and controller to answer phone.

Had only one downside: the cable sometimes rubs against clothing wich makes annoying noise.

No noise cancelling, but that is not a guarantee for better audio.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Starlith:
I have a pair of these and they're great however I think they sounded better on my Z1 Compact, what settings do you use in Walkman?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] cyphomatic:
Clear+

It was better with viper4android, but have to figure out how to get it back on lollipop.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Starlith:

I'm using Xiaomi Piston 2 with Z3c to listening metal :D
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] avinandaspid:
Loved these $20 miracles! Broke mine 2 months ago and after I read this I decided to buy 2 pairs again.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] -V-O-Y-A-G-E-R-:
I liked mine, I lost them...but there is one thing that I disliked greatly...the control part, it is cylindrical and it makes it difficult to figure out which of those buttons will I press...I had to feel with my index finger or thumb for the empty spot between Vol up and down in order to know that the pause is on the other end of the cylinder.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] z3c_:
Has anyone tried the Sony dr bt200? Planning to buy them
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] maknof:
I got Pistons 2 but i found them very good for 20$ but i feel a lack in middle range response , i prefer mh1more neutral. Now i got pistons 3, more confotable if you have little ears. Theiy lost a little in bass power but gain middle and treb response.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] avinandaspid:
Thanks for the heads up on Piston 3! Got a pair from Aliexpress. I also recommend visiting Massdrop for headphones; got a SoundMAGIC PL21 for $14.

These don't have AptX or bluetooth 4.0 so you might not get the most out of your z3 compact. It's still a good buy though if it fits your budget.

Little bit pricey though
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] keithspg:
I have read a lot of threads on this and there does not appear to be any work around and am asking here in case there may be one I just have not found.

The problem: When the phone is in the car dock, no voice commands will work (google voice search , voice dial, etc)

according to this thread, there is no remedy: Android Issue

I have added info to a Jira issue CM11 Jira

I am running CM11 and i have had nightlies where this almost worked, and have been waiting and hoping that it might eventually work. but to date no joy. I do not care if it uses the built in mic or the BT mic. I just want to be able to use the voice commands, especially in the car. Even if I had to run an app to switch it on and then off. Is there any hope?

Even the phone dialer shows an appropriate landscape screen when in the dock, so does apollo!?! Why no hands free function?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazymonkey05:
Do you have the listen in any window enabled on google now?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] keithspg:
Yes I do. I am running CM11, though, and that may be the difference. As far as I know this has never worked in CMx and only worked in TouchWiz roms and Moto roms.

Did the platform.xml fix to enable external sd write, but then got "not enough space.

Hello all. I couldn't post this as a reply to anything (not enough posts) so I put a new thread here to share my experience for the possible benefit of others with the same problem.

I have a rooted T-Mobile Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition (SM-P607T) running stock kitkat 4.4.2 (uvuane2 fw). I did the platform.xml manual fix to enable external sd card writing, but in every file manager in which I tried to move a file (root explorer, ES, even TW My Files) only a few MB would move and then I would get an insufficient space error. I knew this couldn't be right as I was using a 32gig sandisk with almost nothing on it. I had previously used this card in my Note 2 SGH-T889 also running 4.4.2, which had created the "Android" and "lost.dir" folders on the card. I wondered if something in those folders was interfering with write, or perhaps a filesystem issue. So I formatted the external sd from settings and bingo, the write suddenly worked! Anyone have any thoughts as to how and why?

Cheers...Kittie

(Correction: In ES and My Files, I got insufficient space error, but in Root Explorer, I got the "restricted write access 4.4.2 nothing we can do etc." popup.)

[General Questions and Answers] sndsnd:
Hey, your device being incompatible with the game was the reason you couldn't download it from Play in the first place. From what I know, most of the times it's either about the device's screen resolution or Android version. What device do you have and which version of Android does it run? BiA requires 2.3, so if your version is older, updating should help.

Oh, and btw. whenever you need a free app you can't download from Play for whatever reason, try googling "download apk google play" and use some online apk downloader - this way you're sure you're downloading the latest, legit version of the app.

No it did not work I was reading something about changing the device name in a config file or some crap like that how risky is that do you know. And is there something like a device emulator for android to trick the game into thinking it is on a compatible system?

Hello everyone,

i have a big problem... My One don't boot anymore.

Wanted to flash a new rom now i get a bootloop. And my sound volume buttons dont work since 3 months...

so i cant boot via vol- and power button to recovery...

My one gets stuck on HTC Logo...

is there an other way to get in revovery ? e.g. cmd command on PC ?

Many thanks in advance
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
I don't know if it will work but if you can get ADB to work, you might try this command:

adb reboot [bootloader|recovery] - reboots the device, optionally into the bootloader or recovery program

adb reboot-bootloader - reboots the device into the bootloader

I'm sure of the syntac but you can try the various combinations. I really think you need to get those buttons fixed because you are really limited on what you can do without them.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
You can try powering off the device connect usb then do

adb wait-for-device reboot recovery

Then power the phone on. With a little luck it will catch at the right place and land you in recovery. I doubt it will work but it's about as good as it gets without working volume keys. Good luck [emoji120]

Why would you bump up a 2 year old post?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] crossdeath:
why not though?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ChazzMatt:
Because most often there's current information in newer threads. A post 2 years old and dead (now FOUR YEARS OLD) 99.9% of the time is not relevant whatsoever. The phone was on Kitkat back then and not even rooted.

The first thing you should do is ask yourself WHY this thread has had no activity for over 2 years.

The 2nd thing you should do is look at the most recent threads (top 5, top 10 even).

The third thing you should do is search for that topic in the threads. Key words.

Most of the time if it's something important, it's already been answered 20 times in those top threads.

Over in the LG V30 forums I see people bumping up threads (they had to dig DEEP!) from a year ago. Asking stuff about root and bootloader unlock. Arghhh. Those people are just polluting the forum and confusing people. Their questions are already answered in current ongoing threads -- over and over -- but they're just too lazy to look.

Most DEAD threads should stay dead.
