u can buy the htc adaptor from tmobile for 10 bucks and use any headphone with a volume slider in the middle, if you don't really really need the volume control you can get those iphone compatible headphones which are usually super short

or you can go a different route and replace your headphones on the stock usb htc ones, really easy if you know how to work a solder gun.
[G1 Accessories] clspdhax1:
I just did what the person above me did. Bought the HTC adapter (at the local TMobile store) and it came with a mic, a call button and a decent length cord. I then stuck a high-quality headphones on and i was rocking again.
[G1 Accessories] justain:
I bought a replacement wired headset from a T-Mobile store once for around $10 but most locations do not carry them. I would never pay $15 for just the usb->headphone jack converter.

Later on, I realized that I can just get a free one from T-Mobile store. If a customer has a returned G1, they can pull out the headphones and give them away. I think I have gone through 4 headphones myself. The cable on the headphones are so long that they always seem to get caught on things. I have gotten into a habit of holding on to the middle converter thing to prevent breaking my headphones again, but I bet it's going to happen again. I have a spare sitting in the car just in case.

Moto S9 29.99+ UPSshipping 40.00 total

http://gsmmonster.com/motorolas9.aspx

Actually, 27.99 + shipping.

I've heard good things from others on the forum about this headset. Seemed like a pretty good price. Let me know if there is a better option.
[G1 Accessories] atoy74:
Great price and I highly recommend. I've been using the S9's for almost two years now. If you do anything athletic (or just hate wires) they're a must. Sound quality is very good.

I use them while cycling. Such a pleasure to not have wires/adapters/dongles to worry about. All music and phone controls are on the headset as well.
[G1 Accessories] Geniusdog254:
Is the site reputable?
[G1 Accessories] beartard:
Great bluetooth headphones...unless you have a big head. I wear a 7 5/8 hat and the S9 (which isn't adjustable) was very uncomfortable.

Other than that, it has great features and call/music controls right by your ear. I used it with Windows Mobile on a DASH and it even worked with voice command. Couldn't ask for better, but the one-size model was a no-go for me.
[G1 Accessories] mailman1387:
I just bought my s9 for $29.99 free shipping on Ebay Factory sealed.They are great based on reviews and i wanna TIP you

I read to get s9-HD sound just buy the s9-HD ear buds and put it on the s9.

Sony A2DP-compatible BT headphones - $20.94 shipped

EDIT: Deal is over. You can still find these for $30+shipping on Amazon however.

EDIT 2: Deal is live until 6PM Pacific Time today. My mistake. I forgot Shnoop actually lets you buy any deal for 48 hours, not 24. So there is still time to get in on this sweet bargain.

EDIT 3: Ok, completely dead now. Hit amazon for $30 deal.

Reviews on Amazon seem satisfactory. For twenty bucks i'd say it's worth it even if the audio quality is average.

thanks ordered one!
[G1 Accessories] Ryanmo5:
Ordered one as well thanks for the tip :D Just got my order in under the wire!!
[G1 Accessories] jashsu:
Deal is still live for 3 more hours.
[G1 Accessories] webgrafix:
I have these and they work AWESOME!!!

I love how you can control the audio on the Phone via the headset. Plus the Bluetooth communication. I hate putting things inside my ears!!!

They also work great with my laptop!!!
[G1 Accessories] Ryanmo5:
Good to hear thanks, are they comfortable?
[G1 Accessories] raukodur:
Hmm, damn, I was checking out these headphones, they looked sweet, everything I had hoped for in the original earphones, but which wasnt delivered.

So, does anyone know of any alternatives, any remote earphones that can be used with the G1?
[G1 Accessories] Geniusdog254:
These look sweet. Damnit tho I just bought a pair of Motorola S9's ($27.99) on sale from GSM Monster. Lol i paid $46 for them though. Since I have the patience of a 3 year old unwrapping a birthday gift I paid for 2 Day shipping :(

g1 wired Remote-Control earphones

The earphones that come with the G1 dont really have any controls for listening to music, which is a shame, because you dont want to have to keep fiddling with your phone when wanting to increase or decrease volume or change track etc, when it can all be done with a remote control pair of earphones.

So I have a question, where can you get a pair of good, cheap remote earphone for the G1?

How does this system work? if you have a 3.5mm port to miniUSB adapter lead, and so can plug in pretty much any pair of earphones into the G1, can you then use any set of remote earphones to control the G1? Or will that not work? Do they need to be specific, maybe HTC, ones which will be matche dup software wise with the G1 to be able to control it?
[G1 Accessories] ZilverZurfarn:
Don't know about wired phones, but as you can get BT phones pretty cheap (and those controls are standardized) I'd recommend getting one of these babes: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3734606&postcount=12

/Mats
[G1 Accessories] raukodur:
Thats amazing, and so cheap!

But how does it affect your battery life? Since bluetooth is a significant drain, especially since I normally keep it off?

How is the sound quality?
[G1 Accessories] ZilverZurfarn:
BT takes some battery yes, but not all that much (compared to all other heavy battery drains the G1 seems equipped with). I use my phones mostly for biking, and turn BT/headtset on and off when in/not in use. I still get my full day worth of battery (with plenty to spare), on BT ~1 hr/day

The BT receiver is rechargable and comes with a (US) charger with a USB female socket and a USB to 3.5mm cable, meaning you can charge the BT receiver from any USB socket with just the cable (if you don't want to carry the charger around). I'm still on my first charge, so I can't tell how long the BT receiver battery lasts.

Here's a link to DX.

/Mats
[G1 Accessories] raukodur:
Very good, this is sounding promising, last and I suppose most important question, how is the sound quality compared to wired earphones?
[G1 Accessories] ZilverZurfarn:
To my rather forgiving ears - the same as wired. I've only used the original wired and the BT receiver with Sony Ericsson ear buds, and the wired had better bass, but if that's due to BT or the phones I can't really say. I'll make a test with the SE ear buds wired and on BT to hear if there's any difference tonight.

/Mats
[G1 Accessories] raukodur:
Yeah, please do that.

I wonder, anyone else have these who could comment? A slight difference I suppose I could forgive, since the music I listen to is often hard to find, and so not in the best quality, and I am more often more interested in what is actually being said more than anything else, and I suppose if you want bluetooth for this cheap a price, there has to be some sacrifice, but best to know what you are in for before diving in.
[G1 Accessories] ZilverZurfarn:
Well, now I've tried the same phones both wired and via BT and i couldn't hear any difference even if you put a gun to my head.

[G1 Accessories] raukodur:
Umm I have heard the RC E-100 does not work with the G1, have you tried it?

Can anyone say it definately works?
[G1 Accessories] ZilverZurfarn:
Yes it does. At least in the developers version of Cupcake.

/Mats
[G1 Accessories] daveid:
The volume buttons work when the phone is locked and playing music (it is pretty easy to adjust through your pocket.

The stock headset adapter can skip tracks by double pressing the button.

I find it very simple to control with the phone in my pocket (it has to be at work, and I have no issues using it to listen to music for hours at a time).
[G1 Accessories] predo:
does this mean that these headphones with remote should now work on jfs adp1 1.5 version?
[G1 Accessories] jakubd:
No, predo, RC E100 won't work on cupcake (just tested it on Dude 1.1a). ZilverZurfarn was talking about A2DP bluetooth headset with AVRCP buttons - and such a wireless headset indeed works on cupcake roms.
[G1 Accessories] dwang:
Got mine today. No issues pairing with the g1. Sound quality is decent and its very comfortable. Well worth the $20 price.
[G1 Accessories] jashsu:
Just got the DR-BT22s in the mail today. Boy Shnoop wasn't kidding when they said "bulk packaging". It was just a charger, the headphone wrapped in some foam padding and a manual tossed into a cardboard box with a mailing label slapped on. o_o;

The pairing was painless. Held down the BT22's power button for 7 seconds to put it into pairing mode. On the Dream, I toggled bluetooth on and opened the bt settings. It automatically detected the BT22. A tap on the name finished the pairing. After that, it routed all audio over to the headphones as expected. Turn the phones off by holding down power for a couple of secs. All pretty straightforward.

The headphones themselves have pretty decent bass and the overall sound quality is acceptably good. I have noticed some occasional audio drop-outs, possibly due to wifi interference. This should be less of a problem when outside exercising, although I imagine it would be problematic in any setting with free wifi (or any heavily used wifi networks). On a technical side, I can't determine if Dream is linking to the BT22 with SBC or MP3 coding. It would be nice to know.

All in all i'm pretty satisfied for twenty bucks. It was a steal at $20, but IMO is still a good buy at $30.
[G1 Accessories] Ryanmo5:
I believe it is linking with mp3 coding but don't quote me on it, either way im very happy with them. Good overall sound quality, comfortable and like you said pairing was a cakewalk!
[G1 Accessories] Jaspo:
I bought these a week ago from Amazon. Setup was a breeze. But the dropouts are making them unusable for me. I thought it might be network interference, but am having the same problem in the car. Every 25 to 30 seconds it drops for a blip. I believe there is a way to reduce the sample rate so it will decrease the size of data stream, but I have yet to try it.
[G1 Accessories] dwang:
Is it just with streaming via the network? What application are you using?

I used the headphones while playing music on my sdcard and I didn't notice that much skipping.

I'll trying streaming with IMEEM when I get home tonight and report if I encounter any skipping.
[G1 Accessories] jashsu:
Android provides no way to manually change the encoding, sample rate, and bitrate for streaming over A2DP. However, I have not experienced dropouts at nearly the same rate that you are reporting (could go hours without hearing a dropout). Perhaps you are in an area with extreme wifi / 2.4Ghz cordless phone / microwave interference?
[G1 Accessories] dwang:
Listened to imeem with the sony bt headphones and didn't have any issues with skipping. It skipped once in a while, but not every 30 secs.
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
Can anyone recommend a good set? price is not an issue. i just want to be able to enjoy watching movies/ listening to movies. I enjoy that app called LUKLUK for the android. And the headphones that came with the phone just aint doing it for me. the headset needs to have audio controls. Any idea's?
[G1 Accessories] SolemnWishing:
Try these, there one of the best in the world

http://most-expensive.net/headphones

they dont have the volume controls though, but for the price, im sure you can fit it in or alternatively just buy a new car, or two.
[G1 Accessories] jashsu:
It would help if you specified what kind you wanted, like over-ear, in-ear, open-air, closed, etc. I wouldn't spend too much scratch on headphones if it was just for the Dream alone, because Dream's audio quality isn't very high to begin with.
[G1 Accessories] RegulatorG1:
omg i almost fell off my chair hahahaha.
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
lmfao when I said price ain't an issue I ain't mean I'm looking to spend $30.000 on a pair of headphones hahahaha that's priceless, as far as the type of headphones I'm looking for... not looking for headphones like the ones that came with the phone. For some reason headphones like that always fall out of my ears I must have abnormal ears or something. Lol but headphones that go inside your ear or over your head will do just fine. A remote/ being able to answer phone calls would be nice. And yes im looking to use them only for my G1. I wanna be able to make sound louder. Is there a tweak of some sort to make sound louder in the phone and the headset cause I can't enjoy the app lukluk to watch movies, the sound don't seem loud enough and I always have to force the headphones that came with the phone into my ears just to make out what they are saying in the movie lol it starts to hurt your ears after 30min of forceing lmfao! So once again I ask help! Lol what about them bluetooth headphones that loop around the back of your head that I always see at the t-mobile store, for I believe like 50 bucks, are they any good?
[G1 Accessories] ZilverZurfarn:
I use the phones from the SonyEricsson HPM-82 head set together with the BT A2DP receiver mentioned in http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3768880&postcount=54 - Loud enough to block any outside sound, and room to spare - I could still increase the volume in both the phone and the receiver, but raising it more would get me tinitus. Biking in heavy traffic, I hear nothing what so ever, beyong what the phones push into my head.
[G1 Accessories] cilokid:
sup try one of theses i use coby ear buds they are very good also u ask for head phones with capabilities of answering calls didnt u get the adapter that lets u use any head phones u want any way here is a link bro hope u find some thing you like http://www2.shopping.com/xPP-headphones--coby
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
Here's Another Question For You. You know how the Iphone has that docking Charge & Play Station's is there such a thing for the G1? And also the SonyEricsson HPM-82 headset does it have the mini usb connection for the G1 or do i also have to buy an adapter?
[G1 Accessories] ZilverZurfarn:
Charging cradles are aplenty, but I've yet to find one with built in amp and/or speakers. But browsing thru ebay might turn up something? I've even seen someone making an adapter for a iPhone dock to use it with HTC Dream.

The ear buds from the HPM-82 headset have a 3.5 mm plug on a very short cable, but that's just what I want, since the Bluetooth receiver I connect them to have a 3.5 mm jack. While I was ordering (the BT receiver) from DealExtreme, I also bought a mini-USB to 3.5 mm adapter for < 2 bucks, if I should want to use wired headphones (which I won't, since BT headphones are sooo much more convenient :) )

/Mats
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
So it brings me back to asking, has anyone used thoes motorola bluetooth headphones that loop around the back of the head? Anyone have any reviews on thoes?
[G1 Accessories] UnkzDomain:
I'm going to get these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875982220

They double as wired headsets if you don't feel like using bluetooth, too.
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
These sound very promising!!! My only down fall with this headset is like one guy that did a review on the headphones is that... You guys need to understand something. Im going to use this headset for 12 hours a day at work and i need something that will hold strong for 12 hours without a charge or if a charge/play type ordeal will work as well. kinda like how i charge and use my phone at the same time with a charge/play adapter that i bought. so what would u guys recommend for me? :p

Cons: They do not work while charging. A minor annoyance. <--- my main down fall.

Newegg is still shipping the 'micro' power adapter which is the wrong one for this headset. It uses a regular B 'small' connector. This is a VERY common USB cable though, so I just charge on USB anyway.

I have that 2 in 1 adapter brooklyn has in his picture and then I have the Beats by Dre tour in ear headphones. Now that is some rediculous sound there. Best headphones I have ever owned.
[G1 Accessories] hamshu:
Using the HTC Extusb to 3.5 convertor and Shure SE530s. They work amazing especially because the SE530 has a short connector, they provide a extension cable, but the connector is perfectly level with my chest and it picks up my voice very well.
[G1 Accessories] UnkzDomain:
If you look at the specs, it says that the headphones can play music for 17 hours on 1 charge. Also, they're some of the cheapest A2DP headsets I've seen plus they're made by a reputable company.

Also, a review from 4 days ago makes no mention of Newegg shipping the wrong charger, so I guess they're shipping the normal ones. I ordered it already and the cheapest shipping was $5.99 UPS 3-Day, so I should get them soon... I'll post my feedback here, too if you want.
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
I would love to get a feedback from you. Also when you get the headphones, download an app called LukLuk and let me know how the sound is when watching a movie. Let me know if its crystal clear or still a little low. I will keep checking this thread to see your feedback on the headphones. And if you tell me they are the best headphones you've ever owned then I will without a doubt order a pair that day =)
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
Would you be so kind as to provide a link to this headset of yours so that I can take a look at them and maybe get some user reviews. Thank you so much.
[G1 Accessories] UnkzDomain:
Here is the page for it on NewEgg, but if you're like me, you won't be ready to spend that much on headphones. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826232010&Tpk=SE530

I was looking for good headphones that are under 40 bucks since I'm only in high school and have no job (I'm too young to have one in my state)
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
be as so kind as to provide a link to the headset you have. so i can take a look at it and decide if its something i want. thanks.
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
Lmao! your funny. $449.99? yeah im without a doubt like you. im not looking to spend $449.99 bucks on headphones to only use for my phone. lol! **** for that price i might as well buy a new phone. LOL! but like i said ill wait for your feedback on those headphones. :p thanks for the offer tho lol.:cool:
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
this is what i was talking about....

The MOTOROLA S9 Stereo Bluetooth Headset Bulk Package has anyone ever tested these on there G1? Newegg give's this headset a good feedback.
[G1 Accessories] hamshu:
It took me a while to decide on those headphones, I used them with a RSA Hornet Amp and my Sansa Fuze too. They are pretty much my traveling headphones. I love them to death and while they did cost me a pretty penny, its worth it to tune out babies and children on international flights.
[G1 Accessories] Tea8chSee:
I dont know about you all.

But I use The HTC OneTouch Remote which has a mic in it that I use in conjunction

With my ATH-PRO5-MS (audio-technica monitor headphones (which are cool because

They have a camo housing))
[G1 Accessories] marshallladd:
Beats by dre

Things are amazing. Seriously, it's like a subwoofer in your head, and if your a non-bass heavy music person, everything is crystal clear. Amazing sound, and great noise isolation. Mutes the outside world for me.

And if you do order them from the above site(they are about 30 bucks cheaper there then amazon and anywhere I've looked, so I'd recomend it) try entering "15OFF4U" without the quotes in the coupons section during checkout to get an extra 15% off.
[G1 Accessories] UnkzDomain:
Yeah, they look nice, but they're still a little pricey for me =/

Then again, I am a high school student who is too young to have a job (at least in my state) so my idea of "too expensive" may be a little extreme for others =P
[G1 Accessories] hamshu:
A good place for information and reviews on headphones, can be found at Head-Fi. Thats were I got the idea for my headphones. I plan to get either a pair of Livewires or UE11s soon. You can't get any better then custom molded IEMs. Dropping $1000 for those UE11s are going to be fun then another ~$100 on recabling, Goodbye paycheck....
[G1 Accessories] RussianSolja:
You mean to tell me you went out and spent almost 500 bucks on headphones? damn you must have a good job lol. that's almost half my paycheck right there. lol.

I've had headphones similar to the ones your talking about and my dislike about them is that the plastic starts to hurt your ears after a while.
