Iphone earphone with mic problem, voice echoes

i just got the earphones with mic from this store, but since then my contacts have been complaining of hearing my voice twice or echoing. It does not happen if the earphone is not plugged in. I tried another pair, same problem, but it did not occur on iphone that the store guy had. So I'm assuming something is wrong with my phone or some settings problem. Can anyone help, thanks.

I found this and wondered if this could be the issue?

There are three types of 3.5 mm headphone jacks - TS, TRS, and TRRS. Tip, Ring, Sleeve.

Currently the two parts closest to the cord (2nd Ring and Sleeve) are used for the microphone. Some vendors use the sleeve for the mic, and some use the ring.
Could be the problem.

Using Apple Earphones with Mic and Remote with Ipod Nano (3rd generation)

Hi, I'm just wondering if there is any way i can make the Ipod Nano(3rd generation) compatible with the Apple Earphones with Mic and Remote. I know on the box it says the earphones are only compatible with a few ipods, like the 4th generation ipod nano. But Is there any program i can download or use to allow the ipod to recognize the earphone remote and mic?
Thanks a lot.

I'm quite convinced the answer is no for that Apple mic.
I do believe recording is possible on the Nano 3G with the right attachment. But I don't think the sound comes through the headphone jack the way they do on the nano 4G and iPhone 3G/touch.
This review http://www.macworld.com/article/60004/2007/09/3gipodnano.html says it's possible, but when I look at "Belkin, Griffin Technology, and XtremeMac" I don't find much... doesn't sound like they worked very well ... the iKaraoke is compatible

Is the iPod Touch 2nd Gen compatible with current iPhone earbuds with mic?

I have a friend that wants to talk to me on Skype with an iPod touch 2nd gen, but the earbuds don't have a microphone to talk into.
Is the iPhone earbuds with mic compatible with the Touch Gen 2? Thanks.

I found an Apple brand iPhone stereo headset (with mic) on eBay, but when I try it with my iPod Touch 2G on apps like Skype or QuickVoice, I get a message saying that there is no microphone attached. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Hi chrissyfromrenton,
you just have to close completely you Ipod (push 5-10 seconds on the button to open/close you ipod and slide the turn off) after open the ipod and it suppose to be correct I hope I answer to your question!

I'm getting "an error occurred loading this content" when trying to airplay youtube from my iPhone 5. My brother is using his iPhone 4s with no problem. Is there something wrong with my settings?

I'm trying to airplay youtube from my iPhone 5 but I'm getting the error message. I can airplay music, pictures, and other video, but no streaming. My brother is using my appletv and wi-fi with his iphone 4s with no problems. Any suggestions?

I started having this problem a week or so ago, after having used the Apple TV for a couple of months with only some minor problems. Yesterday, however, I started getting this problem again and today I could not get to Airplay from my Ipad - just kept getting the "error occurred" message on my tv screen. I tried the various fixes I could find on Google - at least the ones I could understand - but with no luck. Then I decided to bite the bullet and pay for Apple support, even tho the problem is with the device and not due to my ignorance. So I talked with a support person who said I would have to pay $19.95 for 30 days of support and was glad to take my credit card information. This person had never heard of the problem, and ending up bumping me up to an Apple TV specialist, after spending 20 minutes or so on hold, and explaining the problem, etc. I finally got to the specialist who had heard of this problem and said that she was crediting me for the $19.95, since the problem is due to a KNOWN HARDWARE ERROR. In fact, she said that Apple would give me a new, replacement unit if I would go to the nearest Apple store. This even tho I bought the unit used - it is still covered. Now I have to make a 100 mile round trip to the Apple store, since Apple won't send the new one out in the mail, even if I return mine first. And Apple won't pay for my gas. So that's the mostly good and some bad news. I hope that the new unit won't have this problem, but I think the bigger issue is that since Apple knew about the problem that affects certain serial numbers, why don't they post that information on their support sites or just make it findable by a Google search. Whenever I have had a problem with Windows, I have always been able to find a Microsoft article or fix addressing it by doing a Google search, but Apple, always desiring to be arcane and opaque, isn't interested in this approach. In fact, why not just put together a "known problems" site for Apple products so that users can find this kind of information easily, without having to put out $19.95 for technical support that isn't needed, and wasting their own time (and money, as in my case, for gas). The bottom line is that all of the people with this problem who posted (and there are many) were apparently ignorant that Apple KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND WILL REPLACE THE BAD UNITS. This is because, I am sure, they don't want to shell out the $19.95. Anyway, hope this helps someone. I doubt if Apple will listen to the suggestion. Good luck..

Ipod touch 4g query: Earphone with mic n remote

Hi,
can i use the earphone with mic n remote with other applications
on windows 7 like gtalk? Do i need to install any drivers? How about using it on
Mac with chat applications?
regards,
Deepu.

Your router is capable of IEEE 802.11 at 2.4 and 5 GHz. Note that, depending on the speed of your ISP and considering that you are using an iPod Touch, whether you use 802.11g, 802.11n (2.4GHz) or 802.11 (5 GHz) will probably not result in any performance difference.

The difference between iPhone and iPod earphones with mic ?

What is the difference between the Apple iPhone Headset with Microphone and the Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic ?

The iOS just WORKS as it should and is not glitchy at all like my experience has been with Android.
I had 6 Droid X's since laundh day on July 15th, and my wife has had 4 Droid Increidble's since she got her phone around that same time - and that one had been out for a few months before she got it even, so the "initial bugs" should have been worked out by then as there were a couple software updates to the phone (not even the 2.2 update I am talking about - just 2.1 updates to fix bugs) before she even got it.
And, that's another difference.....whenever there is a software update for the iPhone you get it IMMEDIATELY as there is no "hold" by carriers to tailor it to their own needs, etc., like there is with Android.
Good point about the updates, I believe the Fascinate just got the update that's been out for months already.

Earphones with Mic volume doesn't work

I was playing with the iPhone 3GS at Best Buy with my Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic and I wasn't able to adjust the volume with the earphones. It does work however with the Nano, so what's the dealio? Does that function not work with the iPhone?

I should say I was trying to adjust the volume in iTunes with the earphones.

I have an iPhone 4S with the very annoying echo!!

I have an iPhone 4S with the latest software from Apple. When I call somebody or if they call me the audio on their end echoes. What ever they say echoes back to them. This happens while using the normal mode WITHOUT a head set to listen. When I switch the phone to speaker mode the echo goes away. I did a reset (erase all content and settings) as recommended by Apple and my cell phone service provider and this did not solve the problem. Just prior to this problem my microphone at the bottom of the phone failed and after replacement the echo started. What else should I check and is it possible the microphone at the top of the phone is picking up audio from the ear speaker causing the phone to resend what the person calling me is saying?

2nd gen iPod Touch - can earphones with mic be used?

My daughter just got a 2nd gen Touch. She wants to buy some apps that use a microphone for input. I realise the 2nd gen doesn't come supplied with inline mic earphones (as opposed to the 3rd gen, which does), but can she buy any brand of earphone with inline mic and expect them to work?
Or does she need official Apple ones?

I have a 2nd generation ipod touch with the 3.1 software loaded. I don't see a menu available to pair a Bluetooth stereo headset. Is this capability available on the 2nd gen ipod touch?

What headset / earphones with mic work with N900?

The WH-205 earphones that came with my N900 have died; there is an internal break and it has lost sound to one ear. I don't want another pair of them, I'm looking for an alternative set of in-ear earphones with a mic. Can anyone suggest something that has been tested with an N900? I bought a pair of Klipsch S2m earphones which had been suggested, but they don't work, they make a strange and loud clicking noise, so it seems the N900 is sensitive about which earphones/headsets work.
Ideally I'm after earphones that have a cable, so I can use them on an aeroplane. Don't mind if they are Bluetooth too, as long as wired use is possible. I don't mind if special buttons don't work, as long as the audio and mic work correctly.
Can anyone suggest anything that has been proven to work in practice? Thanks very much in advance,
Cheers, Tony.

I've been using the pair that came with my missus's Sony Ericsson Vivaz, which are just a similar pair to the N900's ones. 1 cable with the mic and 2 earphones, but not the little bud ones that keep falling out of my ears (hence me using them and not the Nokia ones).
I'd love to have had the ones from my N95 that had the pickup and end buttons etc, but c'est la vie...
