Default [Q] Klipsch S4i headset remote control doesn't work

Hello everyone,
I just received my epic touch last saturday.I can't use the control button with the repic touch. When I click the middle button, there is no action. I know that the volumn control doesn't work with android. However, the middle button can play, pause and answer call. I use my headset with my old HTC evo and it work fine. Does anyone have the same problem with me? I don't know if it's a bug or I got a defective phone. Thank you very much guys.

Does anyone use this phone with headset? Does your headset control work fine? I looked for this problem on google and found out that the Klipsch s4i work fine with the international galaxy S2 version.

Same thing happening to me...center button does not work with my s4i headset.
I tried a few headset control apps from the market, but still will not work.

Ditto here with both Skullcandy and Koss earbuds. Control button does squat except launch the stupid voice control app after holding for a few seconds. Headset Droid doesn't even detect button presses.

The i in s4i stands for ipod. You want the s4a, not sure if it is for sale yet, but it has been announced.

Thank you everyone for your reply. I just afraid that I got a defective GS2. I know the S4i is designed for ipod. However, the middle control button work fine for most of the android. I also bought the headset droid control on the market and I could do a lot of things with the control except for the volumn. SO this is a bug for GS2. Hope samsung will fix it soon.

My skullcandy button does nothing either. Oh well. I like to use the phone right now cause everyone asks "ooh what's that?"

The s4i used to work flawlessly with my evo. I was able to change volume, pause, play, and slip tracks. Now I can't do any of the above. ButI noticed that if you hold the middle button it'll bring out the voice command.

+1 . Its not a bug, these buttons send code, code meant for an iDevice. Looking forward to the S4a.
