I have the same problem but only with certain male to male cables that i use in my car. Its nice to know im not the only one. I use beats solos but a pair of skull candys also worked like a charm.

Cant go wrong with skull candy

Should I return it because of this?

You could but it might just be certain cables you just can't use.

What cables
The part that I plug into doesn't like headphones
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA

The 3.5 jack on the vivid seems to not like certain headphone plugs.

anyone have links

Do yourselves a favor - go get a pair of sennheiser headphones..don't waste your $ on beats or even worse skull candy.. ive used all of them, and nothin touches my German sennheisers.

I returned mine because of this and new one had same problem I know I just bought some skull candy from radio shack for 19.99 and a year warrenty so if they pinch a wire or a speaker goes out I can take them in and exchange for free total was 24$ and some change..

Update! just brought some ibeats by Dr dre earbuds, no problems what's so ever.I think this phone was made for beats head phones.

I've been using generic male-to-male cable in my car for the past month with no problems. I have also been using a generic portable speaker for the past week with no issues.
I did have trouble once (yesterday, actually) when the phone wouldn't register the plugged in cable. However that happened after I plugged in and removed the speaker a little too quickly, which seems to have messed with its mind. A hard (battery) reboot fixed the issue.

Damn just found out I could get the urbeats instead from att, probably will take them back and get those instead for the fast forward and rewind buttons. But there not sold at the dre site officially so I'm alittle iffy and confused.

I use earbuds a LOT..I have tried skull candy and they are crap in comparison to others...the German brands are very good but expensive..I found a nice compramise with Klipsch si4...they are $99 with the microphone and volume control on the wire and $79 just for earbuds...the link for ordering online is below:

I need something that locks in like the charger does out the box before it gets used and starts slightly bending, my back is a little beat up and I don't have a car so I don't want to go out if I don't have to trust me not being able to workout is painfully enough by its self , anyway still looking for links for something cheap and loud

Any headphones should work but I shelled out the extra $$ for a pair of klipsch s4..$99....a midrange quality, but works very well. In terms of functionality, skull candy is OK at best...highs are distorted...and beats to me are not all great either for the hefty price tag...well made but quality lacks...if u want cheap then skull candy probably perfectly fine...they work OK...u just use headphones a lot so I'm picky..just can't afford the fancy German made ones..

Almost no head phones work, they gave us a crappy 3.55 mil or whatever jack, I don't know if I can even swap because I'm s- off and all that stuff

I fail to understand all the complaints about the vivid/raider's 3.5mm headphone jack. Had my raider since the day it was released, have used the factory headset, a pair of beats, 3 different pairs of skullcandys, a pair of dollar store headphones, plus my superb sennheisers, all with zero problems. My wife has had her raider for the same length of time and has no complaints. I'm thinking either people are using cases that interfere with the ability of the jack to seat fully, or people are just idiots..I mean that in the nicest possible way of course, but if I can jog with my phone in my pants pocket and not lose my headphone connection then u guys MUST be doing something wrong.

Jogging would be a godsend

I need replacement headphone

Hey guys,
My headphones broke on my nexus s, wondering if the One that came with the evo 4g will work. Honestly I dont like the in ear one that it came with. Anyone know of one that is black and is like the evo 4g or iphone headset that works with our phone.
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Why don't you just try it? I don't see why it wouldn't work. They're all 3.5mm jacks.
Yes they work.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA Premium App
Not sure if you were saying you didn't like the in-ear headset the Nexus S comes with, but here's a link to that pair. They're also included with the Galaxy S devices, and I personally think they're very well built Samsung headphones at an absolutely unbeatable price.

Does the HTC vivid come with any headphones?

My bro just ordered one brand new from some website and it came today...to our suprise there were bi headphones included...the only other two smartphones ever in our house came wig some sort of stock headphones so we assumed the vivid would come with something...it'd really not a big deal cause he has a pair already but I was just kinda shocked...wondering if maybe they didn't get boxed or something

Earbuds headphones same thing
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda app-developers app
This one depends on your carrier. I believe they are packaged differently between carriers. My rogers raider came with earbuds ( a lot better than Samsung's too)
Sent from my HTC-X710a using xda app-developers app
Yeah my Bell HTC Raider 4G LTE also came with headphones (earbuds). They are just your typical headphones but with mic, a fast forward button, pause and "phone" button, and rewind button.
My vivid didn't, but the place I bought it from gave me a car charger, a belt pouch, a pouch case with no belt clip for putting the phone in your pocket, and a bunch of screen protectors.
So far I have had it for twelve hours and that's usually how long it takes me to decide if I want to keep a phone. The vivid is the most under marketed device ever, and I almost didn't know about it at all but saw one next to the Samsung galaxy s2 both for free with upgrade and I googled the specs on my old phone and saw that the vivid has a better display, better resolution, and beats audio. It's basically a dual core version of the one x but better in my opinion because it feels much more sturdy.

Razer Moray?

anyone have tried razer moray on our phone?
The earphones right? I read some reviews saying that it gives good sound for its price
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
I've been using those earbuds for more then a year now. Sounds nice. Good noise isolation. No problem with it so far.
So far this is a decent ear phone, bass is not the strong but it is more suitable for playing games on PC
Im using Morey + which included with MIC. The MIC is usable when you are using the ear phone.
I bought a maroy + and its nice worth for the money

No headphones

I bought the One last week and just getting around to messing with it a lot. I did not get any headphones with the phone. I see where others on there mention their headphones are like unbranded beats. What gives. did I just get shorted or are there some that did not come with the headphones?

I know two people who bought the T-mobile HTC One and neither of them got a headset with the phone(one purchased in a store the other ordered over the phone). I got headsets with both my AT&T HTC Ones

I have an international One and it came with the earphones. I'd call them up and ask for one.
I got mine, couple days later one of the buds ripped off. They sound great but their kinda cheaply made in my opinion.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Well what would you expect from them? They're as cheaply made as Beats are is all I can say. lol
t-mobile's version of the phone seems to have not gotten headphones along with the phone. anyone else confirm? cause i didnt get any headphones either.

not the best sounding, but decent. I like my lg hbs 730 for bike riding. No wires to get in the way and stays on my neck very nicely.
I highly recommend you Philips Fidelio M1BTBL headphone! It's pretty expensive but boy. What a sound. I have 14 different sorts of headphones (I work for a music company) but this is my personal favorite. Battery lifetime is good, the noise reduction is perfect, real good monitoring of high and low ends. And it fits really comfortable!
And of course easy pairing with the m8..

What are you going to be doing with the headphones? Biking running lifting walking ?
I just bought the Motorola S305 headphones, they're $50 at Best Buy, but they will price match Amazon ($35), by far the best deal for the money. Battery life is not that great - 4 hours of talk time (listed specs), music playback is probably a little bit longer. They do charge very fast though. Range also isn't very good from my experience (phone is always in my pocket anyway), but that probably has more to do with HTC Sense which always has some type of issues with bluetooth...but like I said, best deal for the money.
I use it only for biking.

Great thread, I am also looking for he best value bluethoot earbuds to use while running or biking. They all seem pretty expensive, is there on option on the 30-50 bucks that is worth it?
Cheers
Ive also been looking into bluetooth ear buds, for work related reasons its not great to have wires hanging everywhere, Ive been looking at the Plantronics Backbeat go 2's the price doesnt seem too awful and the look to perform like other earbuds
I got these for about $20 AUD recently.
Looks like they sold out at the moment, but I am sure they will get more.
They sound good enough for what I need them for - work phone calls at home and a bit of music. And they come with a pair of detachable ear loops to keep the earphones in your ears while exercising.

I have two pairs of Soul SV3 bluetooth headphones. A lot of bad reviews on Amazon for the earpad covers not being glued on well, but when I got the silver ones they were $40. These are basically knockoffs of Beats, so not for running. One of the many followers that attached a rapper's name to their $200 headphones. These no longer endorsed by Ludacris. Personally I haven't had any problems with the earpad covers. They could've have done a neater job, but they are still glued on after a month of daily use. They have bluetooth 4.0 for better battery life and Apt-X which the HTC One M8 supports for better bluetooth audio. They also have a detachable audio cable and are nicely packaged. Definitely weren't intended to be sold for $40.

I have the Harmon kardon Bluetooth wireless headset, it's completely amazing! The sound is just phenomenal, if your looking for headphones that aren't Beats, these are worth checking out.

The LG Tone Infinims? I have them too, very pricey, but great sound, way better than I ever dreamed I'd get with Bluetooth. Definitely worth the but (though I may buy a pair off eBay and save some money off what I paid at the AT&T store, haven't decided if I wanna risk it yet).
Also got the HK Bluetooth headset. Compared to my urBeats the sound is amazing...
