No headphones - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

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.

Why in the world would they do that? To save a couple of bucks on each device? lmfao

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
Sent from my HTC Holiday using XDA
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.

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.

Sony Wireless NFC Bluetooth Speaker

Finally it's arrived this accessory also.

Did you get this already, I didn't think they were out? Man i want one of these bad.
For anyone interested. I've had this for over a week. I must say I am highly impressed with this thing. Smaller than I expected. Great sound and no distortion. I'm no audiophile by any means but this little thing rocks. I've had no issues with it connecting to other devices from Ipad, Kindle FireHD, or Ipod. Only thing is the Ipad wouldn't control the audio volume, had to use the hard keys on the speaker. Very happy with the purchase. With shipping it was $126 off of ebay. Shipping was 18.00 from Japan.
I got one of these for my wife and its great. Shipping from Japan took about a week. Its easy even for her, all she has to do is tap it with the NFC. The sound is loud and clear. This is the best accessory I have seen.

There you go, £59.99
Thanks, price bit steeper than was expecting. Was hoping more around the 39.99 mark, but hey its Sony after all! Might have to carry on my hunt to add bluetooth to my iPod dock or get it once xmas is out the way. Just out of interest can you plug it over aux to a larger hifi system?

It gets fairly loud, and good sound for such a small device. It's not going to be as good as a stereo system but pretty much everything I need

Fyi: HTC One Speakers died

I am just posting that the on board speakers died on my phone. They aren't blown as headphones don't work either. I can only hear anything on a regular phone call as speakerphone doesn't work either. I have restored my one to stock as I am doing a rma on it. Anyone else ever experience this?

Do you have bluetooth speakers? Try that and if it works it's probably the amp imo. If it doesn't it might be your audio driver. Either way your probably going to have to get a replacement or a repair.
Have you called HTC and troubleshooted with them yet?

Yea I contacted AT&T my provider and they are shipping me another one. I had cm10.2 on it when it stopped worked but even returning it to stock had no effect. I just posted here to see if anyone else had experienced this issue.

Not closely similar to this, but I'm about to claim for the SECOND time that the top speaker is junk. The first phone it blew leaving it distorted and fuzzy. This one, all of a sudden overnight it sounds like a crazy vibration coming from the speaker. Kinda hard to explain... But it sounds absolutely terrible. So I'm going to fastboot the RUU and see if that makes a difference. If not its going back for another

Beats Leaves HTC!

What does this mean?
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 4
That means that every HTC phone released after their deal won't have Beats Audio. That means HTC ONE MAX won't have Beats Audio...and that means that our HTC ONE might go down as the only greatest phone made by HTC with Beats.
It means nothing.
Who uses that **** anyway?
It means something that done almost nothing is leaving. I can't think of many things I care less about

+1. He's right, it means nothing. They sold the rest of their ownership stake in the company, that's all. It doesn't even mean that Beats won't be on the devices necessarily, just that they don't own a piece of the action anymore.
It may not mean a lot to us but there are many people that buy HTC devices just because of beats. It's sad but it's the truth. Think of it like this: compare a team that is not sponsored to a team with a sponsor.

"****ty bass EQ" or not, Beats does make the front facing speakers sound really, really nice. I don't use it for car or headphones though.

I guess it's somewhat ironic that my Phone speaker just blew, again. It blew after I had the phone a couple months or so, and it took Asurion FIVE tries to send me a replacement that was acceptable. I'm trying to decide if I wanna bother with that again or just buy a different damn phone.

It may make some of the aspects of songs sound better through the speakers, but the others, notably the mids, it certainly makes worse. If you want truly great sound, you'll never find it with beats. Try something like ViPER4Android.
HTC is the best in mobile sound with the ONE. Hard to argue otherwise. The company may have there own technology in line for future phones. Maby better than beats. I personally think beats are over priced compared to some competition they have.
