Hi everyone,
Sub-title = Cut original usb headphone+mic --> direct solder to 3.5mm TRRS stereo+mic jack
>>>>>>>Do at your own risk, I take no responsibility for problems, shorting, exploding phones !!!!!!! <<<<<<
After cutting the usb away, you'll find below colors and associated functions
blue = left speaker (+) --> goes to TIP of 3.5mm jack
red = right speaker (+) --> goes to RING_1 of 3.5mm jack (the RING closest to the TIP)
big copper = GROUND (-) --> goes to RING_2 of 3.5mm jack (the RING furthest away from TIP)
WHITE = mic --> goes to SLEEVE 3.5mm jack
goldish smaller wire= unknown --> didn't use it, everything works without it, strange for me thought, am willing to listen to others who have more information about this.
After MODIFICATION (receive call button works, as well as pause/play, double click to next song, triple click to previous song, specifically work on Samsung GT-P1000, may varies models to models ???, varies software to software ???)
Good luck.
Not that the sound is particular good, just wanted to be environmentally friendly, not throwing usable stuff. The earpiece rubber ring can also be removed to install others like NO-horn / NO-focusing thingy, to play / change the sound / taste / preferences. Just for fun. When without the focusing rubber, sound is louder, high frequencies more prominent, not yet till super bright killing the ears, but less BASS.
Edit *************
Cover the 50% exposing earpiece to force all the sound through the tube / focusing thingy increases over SPL does not kill the high frequencies as much as I thought, not too bad.
