you'll need the 3.5mm adaptor thingy...

but in terms of the actualy headphones themselves, it depends on what type of "sound" you're looking for. if you want bass rich ones then look no further than the sony's.

but if you want a clean, flat and authentic reproduction of sound then look no further than the Ultimate Ears super-fi. i use them as a musician and they are frickin awesome

HTC Phones:

- bad sound quality

- not confortable

- long...long...long cable, 1m60!

-it'not really practical to put them in your pocket and spend 30 sec playing with the knots

So here's what I've done with my HTC Phones:

For instance I solved the last two problems.

-open the mic plastic small case the one where is writted HTC

- cut 2 wires: the one that came from the plug, and the one from the longest head phone.

-cut the yellow glue wits a cutter

- take the small circuit out

- with a small solderind iron (20W is more than enough) unsold the cables you have just cutted

- prepare the cables to be soldered

- attention: these cables have a resine so you have to put them in acid (acetone is not enough) or withe a small cutter try to scrath gentli the wires.

- sold the wires back to the small electronic circuit, and mount the mic.

That's it, I have a smaller cable that is realy easy to use and the number of knots when I put it in the pocket is reduced by 4 :P

The best in-ear headphpnes are made by:

Shure

Ultimate Ears

Etymotic Research

Some less expensive but still rather good models are made by:

Jays

Denon

Sennheiser

I would *not* recommend Sony or any other common consumer brand. The threshold of usability starts around $50, and gets a lot better through $100-$150. The upper end units are $200-$500. I have a pair of Denons at about $90 that have good audio, are rugged, and comfortable. However, the quality difference using some of the more expensive Shure's is quite noticable. NOTE! For this style, fit is EVERYTHING. No fit, no bass. Experiment with different earseals.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] Mandragore:
Have a look at the Sleek Audio adjustable SA6, with the Kleer wireless unit coming up.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] alcook:
I'm with DrewVS on this. I have some Shure e2c's

I use them for both my Ipod and Diamond via the HTC > 3.5mm connector which I picked up offline for about £3 / $5.

The Shure's, with the various isolating earpieces that you can fit to your ear canal perfectly are quite possibly the best around in terms of voice reproduction. The Bass maybe a bit light, but seeing that I'm not a bass head, and like (female) vocals, the e2c's fit the bill perfectly and make the sound from the Diamond using Pocket Player better than my Ipod...

A little expensive... but you pay for what you get. Anything cheaper than these... or the wrong side of some decent Sony's and you're cutting back on the sound quality significantly...

IMO of course... :cool:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] Weisan:
generally ipod sounds bad... look good tho.

i really recommend e2c, they mayb dont fit all ears but if they fit they will stay there not come out cuz a little accidently pull and isolates u from the background noise extremly good. My e2c just broke after 3 years of use... the cable has the tendency of dry out and crack open.

but still they are very good.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] William Richardson:
I suggest the CX500 - Try this chap:http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/projector_outlet

I have bought off him. Then use the HTC controller thing: http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=166221

These work very well together.

I hope this helps....

Just go to www.dv247.com and check out their range, an idea of quality would be the price bracket:

£1-£30 - Crap

£30-£100 - Reasonable

£100+ - Very Good

If money is not an issue then I would go for the Shure's they are about £160, can't quite remember their model number.

My personal opinion, however, would be to get a proper set of cans, they always produce a better sound and can be made less intrusive with the design of Bose nosie reducing.

If you want real clarity then DT770's all the way! More or less studio standards!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] flashmp3:
+1 I had them and sounds very good with HTC devices

Ipod has no bass it's famous !
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] flashmp3:
Just to add WESTONE that used to make the best earphone (editors choice on earphonesolutions.com)

I had sony's earphones then etymotics er6-i then shure e2c, e4c then Westone UM2

for less than 50 dollars go for sony cause there is a gap in the quality compared to orginal htc's

for about 100 dollars go for Shure e2c. It's in my opinion the best you can get for that price

for 300 dollars don't hesitate and go for Westone UM2. I'm in love with it since the first day i put it in my ear......sound is outstanding....huge bass....deep bass......crystal treble........they are 119 dB so you can push the volume far and don't need to put the volume to high on the phone

Hope i helped you :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] salada2k:
I use the Sony MDR-EX90LP's with the RC E100.

I butchered them all, lol.

I cut and resoldered the Sony's so they just reach the RC E100 where it clips to my shirt, and then cut the massive cable of the RC E100 down (reckon I chopped off about a metre, lol) and now it just makes it down to my pockets where the diamond is. No more tangles! :D

Also the Sony's sound really good and with the controls of the RCE100 my Diamond stays in my pocket when I'm on the train, etc. Worked well in the end but soldering the 9(!) wires inside the RC E100 sure took some time... And was scary. :eek:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] korytr:
I just bought those B.O.S.E In-Ear Phones and it's the only pair that fits my ear. Really amazed of its sound and it was just for 98 Euros. You don't have to put them in your ear canal, so it's quite comfortable to wear them. They are sitting loose in your ear without falling out, really amazing idea!

Don't buy them on eBay, because about 99% are fake.

This are the real ones: (you can't really see a difference to the fake ones, so go buy them in a B.O.S.E-Store)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] jastone:
Hey there guys,

I'm absolutely not pleased with the size, shape and quality of the standard headset that came with my Diamond. I had three different Sony Ericsson phones previous to the Diamond and still have the Sony Ericsson HPM-70 headsets sitting around.

So I thought about opening the microphone part on both headsets (which is quite simple) and solder the HTC headset cable to the Sony Ericsson microphone circuit board to be able to use the SE mic and headphones on my Diamond. I prefer the smaller answer button on the SE headset over the big HTC button and would like to be able to use different headphones.

My problem now is, that the HTC headset has more wires soldered to the circuit board than the SE headset. I don't know where to start.

I wonder if anyone of you could help my out with a plan of the pins and/or the circuit board of either headsets. If anyone was working on the same issue before. I'd really appreciate it! :)

cheers,

jastone
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] Weisan:
tried those in a bose store and they are not comfortable at all... the feeling of they are falling out is horrible. its like going back to original headphones but with better sound.

i got a pair of Cresyn e230 for 25$ , has the same as shure e2c "cable around ear" but not behind neck. they are the best sound in that price range but its a little to much bass but very satisfying sound.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories] cozzykim:
How about these I use them with the Ignito adapter that comes in the O2 UK package, it has all music controls, 3.5mm socket and the FM radio works without the headphones plugged in.

I'm not sure whether you can buy it separately tho' :(

EDIT: Found the wired adaptor Here

They are not really gonna be very good quality for that price really are they? With headphones you really do pay for what you get!

Personally, and after being a sound engineer both live and in a studio for the past 11 years, I would recommend the Shure's if it's budget your after then these will be for you, they have a decent sensitivity and a genuine frequency response:

The cheaper you get the quicker it damages your ears!

Sweet adapter though!

[Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers] KeepaD:
Hello everyone, hope all of you are in great health!

I had my Max Pro M2 for almost two years now (march 2019), running stock android 9 which came with the device with all its OEM updates installed,

but for the first time yesterday when I rebooted I got this first image which I immediately thought was ransomware,

after visiting the link it redirected me to a google page which says my OS could be compromised.

View attachment 5386339

here's a list of things which were working prior to this warning

Installed GCam from trusted source on XDA -2019

Installed Youtube vanced from trusted source on XDA and subsequently installed vanced manager -2019,2020, 2021

Changed device display to aftermarket one -2020

changed microusb port at local repairs hop (he serviced it in front of me, so no rootkit or malware injected afaik) -2021

Can any of the above compromise the stock OS?

or does google like to force people to stop using older android versions?

I performed a full cache and partition wipe and revert to stock image and later did a systems check and got the second image as result.

View attachment 5386341

Later I just booted into the phone after the stock factory image by pressing the power button during the warning screen and it boots up, but during device restart this warning still persists!

Currently running Android 9.0 with all the latest security patches from OEM,

should I finally flash a custom ROM and get rid of this warning? any other information required?

if so anything close to resurrection remix or better in terms of battery life and performance?

Every week at least one time this question is asked on this forum.

The answer is: Forget it, the data aren't recoverable unless you have the forensic tools needed. Contact authorized service center.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Worse one or more of those apps likely encrypted the data they "found" and possibly overwrote or destroyed the original data.

If so it's a lost cause now.

Even if you recover data it will have no folder structure. That's gone forever.

Jpegs with no Exif info; no prevoius pic number or time stamp... just the jpeg.

You can sort by file type/size but that's it for all recovered files. Hundreds of thousands files and fragments in a juxtaposed jigsaw puzzle that's impossible to reassemble. You'll spend huge amounts of time just trying to find the jpegs you want. Recovering anything else will be like a never ending joke from hell.

Meh... always redundantly backup critical data.

Hello I got an oneplus 9 EU.

I can only connect to 5g with the dial up code but that's not permanent, I did contact my carrier (giffgaff O2) but they said everything if fine on their end so I contacted oneplus which they told me to send logs which I did, but shortly after that they sent me a survey about how they did and didn't even reply if they are going to look into that.

So I'm asking the community if there is a way to make it work permanently without having to unlock the bootloader or rooting the device?

Set it back to factory settings, set up an internet connection, set up your google account and don´t do anything else than start the play store and wait for updating your system. the current version will be installed automatically, together with updates of your existing apps.

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] davedes:
I have an issue with my galaxy S21 that is not automatically switching between my 5GHz & 2.4GHz wifi network when in close range to the router.

I have smart connect active on my router. When enabled, the 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks share the same network name and password(only one SSID will be displayed), and your wireless device will automatically switch connection to the Wi-Fi band that provides the fastest speed.

My device stays connected to the 2.4GHz network, I then have to turn my wifi off and back on again on my phone to connect to the faster 5GHz network when in range. My S21 is the only device on my network that does not do this automatically.

Anyome else experiencing the same or have a fix for this?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] Andro Uno:
I've seen the same behavior. My configuration is the same as yours. I did a little experiment. I switched off the 5GHz range on the router. All clients switched to the 2.4 GHz range. Then I switched the 5GHz range on again. But even after 30 minutes, my 3 dual-channel android devices Galaxy S21, Galaxy Tab S4 and Galaxy S6 were still in the 2.4GHz range. Then I switched the S21 wlan off and on again. The s21 immediately connected to the 5GHz range and the other two devices followed immediately. Very strange. My WLAN router is a Fritz!Box 7590.

Otherwise, I know the behavior of the devices in that the devices only search for a new connection when the current connection is broken.

Sorry for my bad english, I am German.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] davedes:
Thank you for your response. Samsung need to acknowledge this and apply a fix.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] batroc:
Hi! These are router problems. Set maximum power for 5GHz and average or minimum for 2.4GHz. Prioritize connecting devices to 5 GHz.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] davedes:
Can't be a router problem. Don't have an issue with any other device on the network switching between 2.4 & 5Ghz, only Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] batroc:
I see that a stronger signal is important for communication than fastest band. Samsung has a weaker Wi-Fi transceiver compared to a laptop for example. In my dual-band router, I made settings as described above.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] Andro Uno:
The Android device alone can select the WiFi frequency range. Try to make the 5 GHz band more "palatable" to the cell phone by temporarily blocking the 2.4 GHz band in the router. Then remove the login data from the mobile phone and from the router. Make a restart from Handy. Then register the device again and release the 2.4 GHz band. Then test the behavior.

Please let us know if it helped.

Edit: Make sure to use the original MAC address of the mobile phone when log in.
[Android Head-Units] jdr2k21:
New here but benefited greatly from these forums so I want to post how my RAV4 went. I have put in two of the Atoto Units just to get low cost CarPlay in some older vehicles. I did it first in a 2009 Honda CR-V. It had a 2 wire OEM SWC and most recently a 2009 RAV4 which has a 3 wire. In both cases, the units were resistive type SWC and did not require any additional resistors. It took a little experimentation and youtube and this forum to get it to work.

No matter what car you have, you can figure out which wires are involved in your SWC by starting somewhere like AxxessInterfaces.com. YOU DONT NEED TO BUY ONE. I did and took it back but their doco will tell you what wires are there and a little bit about them. See the attached snippet for my Rav4 where you can see Pins 6-7-8 are the key to this.

View attachment 5386365

I can see that 6 is the ground and 7 and 8 are business related. Put your vehicle in the AxxessInterfaces site and look for your vehicle specific guide and you can see what their is. There are also guides like this on other sites like idatalink and other interface modules. I also was able to find a specific pin out for all 3 harness plugs online.

I also went out to Metra's website and see what they have for harnesses. In the image below, they have a harness for the extra kindof 3rd accessory plug shown above.

View attachment 5386367

While I got the 70-1761 harness for the main harness. Power, Speakers, accessory, dimmer/headlight indicator... usual stuff.

This add on 8114 Harness is actually made to plug directly into an Axxess interface. I cut that off and just used it for easy access to pin 6 7 8. I grounded pin 6 just as the Axxess guide said to. Then I had two options. The other two wires either hook up to SWC KEY+ or the KEY#+ from the Atoto. In these forums and on Youtube various people have had to use 2K or 220 ohm resistors but I did not. I did not use the 3.5mm swc jack on the atoto on either install.

Finally, I connected then the Metra Harness 8114 to the Atoto by curring off all the RCA jacks, 3.5MM and Axxess plug and just using the bare wires. Colors below.

OEM PIN 6 (black) from the Metra 8114 Harness (black) to ground. I just tapped it into the other Toyota harness black ground.

OEM PIN 7 (white) from the Metra 8114 Harness (Green/Yellow) to the Atoto Key+

OEM PIN 8 (Red) from the Metra 8114 Harness (Green/Black) to the Atoto KEY#+ note the pound sign.

View attachment 5386387View attachment 5386389

Lastly this F7 programs the steering wheel keys differently. It takes you to a 'custom key settings' screen but you don't push your steering wheel buttons first. You cannot tell if they are working UNTIL YOU PRESS AND HOLD THE BUTTON ON THE ATOTO FIRST!!!! This was confusing to me. I didn't notice it was working and when down an hours long bunny hole.

Eventually, I read more closely. Go to that screen and press and hold volume UP. It will stay lit on the atoto. Then push volume up. If it stays you'll see it register. Repeat for volume down, next track, last track and MODE.

Good Luck and thanks to all the contributors at this site.
