Hi,
The sound in the headset that comes with the Trinity is quite bad and I really want to get a better one. Does anyone know if there is anyone making good headsets (prefferrably in-ear earbuds) or alternatively a plug converter such that I can use my normal headset with the usb plug on the trinity.

This should be the nice solution for you :) : http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=142091&asource=HTC%20_P3600
(i'm getting one too, cause the BT stereo isn't that great at all...)

I ordered from brando a couple of days ago. Wanted a silicone cover too, but he did not have those yet.

the mini usb to 3.5mm converter just have a problem doesn't support microphone function...
need to remove every time you receive a call...
Any other solution... like a normal headset with microphone and a mini usb?

the oem headset's sound quality is really bad, but i recognized that you can turn music much louder than older devices like my old wallaby

I personally picked this up
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=004&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=140107857073&rd=1&rd=1
I don't know if it's going to work or not, I'll post and let everybody know when I recieve it. The reason I opted for a 2.5mm headset is because I have like 3 of them lying around because my old phone used a 2.5mm and I didn't want them to go to waste.. if it doesn't work or if the sound quailty sucks I'll give a motorola mini usb headset a try.

I can tell ya ahead of time that this will not work. The moto pinouts are different from the HTC proprietary pinouts. You need to get one made for HTC phones.

Hmm in that case, do you know of any headsets for the Trinity that is a single earpiece headset and not the double it comes with?

why not just cut off the unwanted earpiece....
anyone managed to open the mic box on the stock headset? does it just have snap locks or is glued? I would break it open, but the operative word would probably be Break. I was considering just changing the ear phones over to some expensive ones to improve sound quality without losing the mic and usb connection.
Speedn
edit: no glue, just snap locks. Push in on the walls of the mic box on the large bit, (the bit with the button in it). slide ya fingernail into the gap an prise the top small piece off. Caution the small top piece has small pins in it so pull it straight up and not to the side.
remove old earpieces and solder new ones on, its even got L- L+ R- R+ labelled for ya.
I havent actually progressed to the attaching of new phones yet, will pick some up over the weekend mebbe.
Enjoy

Or you could just use a headphone adapter with mice like this one from ebay.

I bought that same adapter on ebay from another online store. It doesn't work properly. Same unstable sound/ear phone cutting out.
Also bought that block type one with no mic support. Doesn't work either. It seems there's nothing with a snug fit or the socket is faulty, because all the adapters seem to be able to rock around too much so there's not a proper contact.
Has any one found anything reliable?

Have you tried Trinity Wiki? http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Trinity
Anyway, this is the shortest shortcut for you:

This topic has been asked quite so many times.
Regarding W100 Remote Control I recommend to read this one below, since sometimes it doesn't work smoothly:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303177&page=5&highlight=w100+remote+control
Anyway, I prefer 2.5 mm headsets, since this 2.5mm size is the most compatible with many other devices. (I got Eten which use this size also). To make it work on Trinity, one just need to buy the MiniUSB to 2.5mm converter as mentioned on previous post in this thread.
To those prefer headsets, rather than simple minijack converter to enable use your standard audio headphone which you have to unplug everytime you have to answer calls, then please join me in General Area on topic "The Quest of Searching of Good Quality Headsets", as in:

Thanks :cool:

I really wish there's a dock/craddle that also allows you to connect your 11pin headphone jack in there...
Reason being so I can have my phone sync/charging while listening to music at the same time...
I just bought the next best thing, which is the 3-in-1 USB Stereo Adapter:

why can't it be connected to a dock?! =\

Hy, Chunga168 could you please give us your feedback on your 3-in-1 USB Stereo Adapter ?
Can you charge the ppc and listen to music or sync at the same time ?
My goal is to keep my ppc charging while listenning to GPS guidance with a headphone (on a motorbike)....or should i just take a bluetooth headphone ? (i'd prefer not since i don't want to charge it every night)
thanks
