Default Can anyone confirm if the mic on Klipsch i series work?

As title really, can anyone confirm if the Klispch X10i s4i or s5i microphones work with the Nexus one? I have seen conflicting reports and one that said it did at first and then stopped

I really want a pair but need to be sure at least the mic works even if other functions dont.

Thanks

I may be wrong but I think the mic for any headphones with a mic work its just the other functions that don't (i don't have what you have but i have another pair of headphones and they work fine)

Well, I am afraid the answer is that the Klipsch X10i does not work with android phones. At least not with the desire z.

I spent £170 on some Klipsch X10i and the mic doesn't work at all

That said...

The Klipsch S2m are on amazon only and they are the same as the Klipsch X1m. They are one button and have a mic that works with android and they are only £25!! They don't sound as quite as good as the X10i but at £25 instead of £170 that seems fair. They have a good balanced sound, a bit bass heavy if anything but they are well worth the money. X10i's are going on e bay!

I have been using the S4i with the N1 since Feb of 2010 with no problems. As you might have read, the volume +/- buttons are made for the iphone and don't work with android. But the call-answer button works to answer calls and skip tracks. The mic works great and the sound quality from the earbuds is great.

Default Non-Iphone headsets on Android phones

This is general issue, IPhone headsets have the pins for mic/ground switched, so that 'standard' headsets will not work. This is done so that Steve Jobs/Apple can make more money

All you need is a pin-converter cable. I found this one which makes any non-Iphone phone accept IPhone headsets etc.

iPhone Headset to other Cell Phone Headset Jack Adapter - 3.5mm 4 conductor TRRS Male to Female

Its pricey but well worth it if you don't want to buy an IPhone and make Steve rich

The X10i's mic works on my SGS2. Volume buttons don't and centre button also doesn't respond the first few times.
