Hey guys i want to know which headphones/earphones are u using for the moto g4/plus other than the one given by Motorola in the box. I want to buy a new earphones as my cowon Em1 are dead and asking for a suggestion which earphones should i buy as i have tried skullcandy and jbl earphones (took from my friend) which didn't work(no sound). so i want to make sure that the earphones which i want to buy are actually compatible with our phone.i am looking forward to buy boat bassheads 225, cx 180 and mi in-ear basic and any other you suggest below 1k. Waiting for the replies
All earphones/headphones which use the standard 3.5 mm audio jack should be working. However only buy the ones from trusted brands like SkullCandy, JBL and Sennheiser. Moreover do checkout the ratings before buying. If you're buying it online I'd recommend Amazon and Flipkart (but yea, make sure the seller has a rating of at least 3.5 stars) According to me, the Sennheiser CX180 Street II are good enough. (my friend bought them)
Moto G4 Plus Headphones Issue
Many G4 Plus owners have had an issue with headphones/earphones not working or playing only on 1 side. Check this Lenovo forum thread starting on page 3. I had the problem (1 side only) and after making sure the jack was fully inserted, I put the phone in safe mode (with the jack kept in). Worked fine in safe mode. Rebooted and has worked perfectly since, about 9 months ago. Note: As a new XDA member I'm not allowed to post outside links so Google the issue and find the Lenovo forum thread. Hope this helps.

I think im not having the issue of earphone sound only coming from 1 side. but some of the branded companies headphones (like skullcandy, JBL) which are genuine are not working at all as there is no sound coming from them and on other devices it just working perfectly with great sound. I don't know if its device fault or if its headphones fault.
Does philips headphones works? I am planning to buy 1⃣

I bought some ibeats from best buy all excited of course, came home and unbox'd them. Apparently the headphones with the talk control in them sound like there's is a major Flanger effect in them unless you press the talk button.
and i tried it with the AT&T xperia's which were at best buy tried different pair and they sound exactly the same.
Anyone else out there using dre. beats with there xperia without any problems
I can only use the ones from x10 to get good sound others dont work on x10

My Solos never worked with my Xperia. Infact neither did regular iPod headphones. Quite annoying.
i tried 2 different android phones now they work perfectly fine its just the freaking Xperia , im just tired of this phone. No more SE brand's for me. квартиры посуточно Тюмень

If you get the ones without the mic they should work fine.. tried it with a whole bunch of headphones so that I could choose the right one (ended up with Denon D1001 - great set, esp with X10)
Yeah, Sony switched the contacts around on the plug compared to how everyone else does it.
Should work ok if you plug the headphones into the clicker instead of directly into the phone. Well, the headphone part will anyways.

if your headphone has a mic, ie with 3 bands on your jack, it won't work. apparently , sony has its own thing concerning mic, but the regular 3.5 mm jack, with just 2 bands, it should work just fine.
So, I am looking at getting some decent headphones for my 501.
I will be needing a Mic as I do Skype calls.
I will also need something with a long enough cable to have my tablet in my bag.
Also looking for something with some form of external control, to skip tracks.
I have been looking at the Klipsch s4a, which look great, but I haven't been able to find all that much online in the way of reviews, just been reading s4i reviews.
Was also thinking about the Ultimate Ears 600vi, but unsure if these will work.
I will be using these for both my 501 and my new phone, probably SGS2 or Nexus, depending on what they offer. (Undecided on what yet, as I am waiting on the outcome on an insurance job after my x10i stopped working... apparently water damage, but I am gonna tell them to stick that where the sun don't shine, but that is a different story.)
Can anyone point me at possibly something else?
Budget is between $75 and $150 ($AUD)... maybe a lil more if the quality is there.
Maybe also consider the etymotic Hf2s? Great for isolation, great general sound also.
I tried a stereo+Mic adapter and got nowhere. so either the Iconia won't take mic in on that port or it just won't do mic and stereo.
I use the Motorola hd9 they are blue-tooth and work great. They have newer models of this headset. When the ones i have now go bad i will Buy the newer version. OHH And they get up to 8 hours on a charge. Only downside is you cant use them while charging.. mine are now maybe 3 years old..
I use the Etymotic HF2, too. Really the best headphones I've ever had.
Hey guys I think I made a mistake getting TMobile OP6T instead of unlocked 6. I never thought I would miss that headset jack as much as I do. I lost dongley thing already. But this phone is by far the fastest phone I ever had. Coming from S8+ and LG G7 this phone is amazingly fast.
So my question is: Is the OnePlus 6 as fast as 6T but with a 3.5mm jack?

They're the same device except the 6T drops the headphone jack and the regular fp sensor and bigger notch that's it. Same SD845, Same UFS 2.1 2-Lane, Same LPDDR4X RAM
OOS is the same "Performance Optimizations"
Thanks for your help, and you reminded me of another I hate: front fingerprint scanner. Thanks!

Isn't it supposed to get more efficient the more you use it?
Well I've had my 6T for 3 months and at first it's not a big deal touching it 2-3 times but now its so annoying. Face unlock works fine but for my apps that require FP is a real pain.
I sold my 6 when I got a free 6T,6 is better if not only for the headphone jack but also the fingerprint scanner,though Still loving the 6T for it's bigger battery,more storage than my 64gb 6.
Fingerprint scanner works better over time,not a big deal because face unlock works so well
Not gonna lie though,am keeping an eye on other phones like the Mi 9,maybe 7,Poco f2

Also got my eye on the Mi 9 waiting for the official pricing here in the UK, Poco 2 could be interesting but if it has ton of bleed like the first did I can't buy it..
Just buy a pair of Bluetooth earbuds/usb c headphones and use face unlock. Problem sorted!
Not sure why 6T has more bands than 6 even if both have the same hardware.

Percy don't even get me started on Bluetooth headphones I ALWAYS forget to charge them esp when I really need them. I have at least 5 pairs of them laying around here all dead! And since I don't have Bluetooth in my car I use my wired headphones to talk while I'm driving. Not sure if that's still legal.
Sorry to hear you lost your dongle, but it's 2019. Buy a damn BT headset already...
What I do is I keep the dongle attached to aux chord I am using. I even bought aux to USB c chord. Dongles are relatively cheap. I am not defending the loss of the aux port this is just how I adapt. Thankfully the battery life is excellent so charging and listening to music is not an issued to me

Eh Bluetooth is annoying outside of listening in my car. Can't pair more than one headphone, needing to charge the bloody headphones. I bought $30 pixel buds USB c. Yes I have Bluetooth capable headphones but I use aux to USB c when I do use them
Hey guys, looks like this forum is pretty quiet for the Axon 7 mini but if you see this, I'm considering getting one as a media player (mostly music) in compliment to my Axon 7 which is my daily driver phone. Does the mini output bluetooth audio at hi res like it's big brother? I know it has an AKM DAC for the 3.5mm socket but I mostly use BT either in my car or on headphones now, so that is very important.
If not, I may as well just use my wife's old Oppo F1f when her new phone arrives. Performance is similar but not hi res audio.
Decided to get one anyway, so cheap, AU$149 new in box from retail store, grey one too, not keen on gold. I'll put my 128Gb card from the Axon 7 in it as I put a 256Gb in that recently.
My Axon 7 is stock and used for work but the mini can be anything I want
So, as to stock ROMs, what is the latest one you can root ok? I'm downloading 7.1.1 B15 for my G variant, it doesn't find any OTA updates from it's old original global ROM which is ZTE B2017G APV1.0.0B01
In Australia.

No hi-res bluetooth. Just aptX. If you install the one.
So far I tried three ROMs, cannot update it.
Buyers remorse kicking in.......
Maybe stuck like those variants in GB and Canada.
Edit: thinking about the process of updating Axon 7, maybe there is a road map for updating the mini too. Been searching the different ZTE support pages around the world and downloading some different ROMs. Found a later MM ROM to try before going N. Hoping that is the answer.
Edit: Looks like it's stuck on this very old ROM, the A in the version name is looking like the problem. A for Australia, and no updates for Australia. Booooo!
Can they be recovery forced? But then brick? I guess it would just refuse.
Edit: Did MM B12 update by recovery so got it to global rather than Australia. Now it's on the update road via SD method Going N B13 now, what's the latest I should go that can be rooted ok?
So once I got it away from the really old Aus ROM via recovery to MM B12 it all went very easy. Now on N B16.
For AU$149 new in box, the A7 mini is a bargain!
Guys, I think there's a myth I can dispell straight away between Axon 7 and Axon 7 mini. Having both now, I can tell you straight up, despite both having an AKM DAC the big brother absolutely destroys the mini with 3.5 jack output into a line in device. It's a MUCH louder amp. Could easily drive it's output directly into car hifi amp system without a HU.
Going between the two with a pair of decent 32 ohm buds is not quite as clear cut though, the A7mini has a nice and more balanced, clear sound, decent volume but the A7 still punches harder, it brings more depth into the bottom end so feels bigger and that's how I prefer it.
As to that crazy output to line in devices like a portable speaker with the A7, it's actually a bit too much and have to cut the volume level back at least two steps so for this purpose the mini is more sensible, but if you're driving cans, go A7 every time, especially if they're higher impedance than the normal 32 ohm stuff.
I still like the mini, it's a very nice phone and at the current runout price point nothing else gets near it, especially with that gorgeous AMOLED screen and premium external finish.

Hi. This forum is quiet, but there is a lot of useful things about Axon 7 mini on the Russian 4PDA forum. http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=891109&st=1100#entry85892739
You can just use a google-translated version of this, I suppose.

Thanks for that, I'll have a look when I have some spare time, see if there's anything that takes my interest. I have to decide if I'll mod this phone to a custom ROM as we know it will never get another update from ZTE. Mine is on N B16 so that's end of the line.
I guess the biggest thing is if custom ROMs have the audio performance as good as with stock. I use mine in the car to play music through the 3.5mm jack. Got Next Track app to skip tracks back and forward with screen off by volume rocker. Works well. Sounds pretty good on bluetooth even, because Dolby Atmos does work and combined with gentle equalisation in Poweramp makes for a fairly well defined sound. My headunit doesn't do Hi Res bluetooth so this phone is ideal for the car. Despite the stock headunit, I've built a kick ass hifi off of it.
Liking the A7 Mini, doing much better on battery than expected. It idles quite efficiently. With light use I get it to go for two days on a charge. I ended up taking my personal SIM out of my Axon 7 and put it in the mini. Just my work SIM in the A7 now. That improved battery life on the A7 too.
Considering the better than expected battery range I'm not even looking at rooting or modding it.
Even got my brother an A7 Mini to replace his iPhone 6S which got the latest iOS update and made it useless..... Good one CrApple
Does anyone use a type c to headphone jack adapter with their 8 pro? Please link some below if you do.
Yes, i use this one:
