I have a set of beats (the tours). I was told by a guy at radio shack that they would work no problem with my new phone. I kinda figured they wouldn't, so I said I would return them if they didn't. Well I happen to like the sound and I don't want to return them, but half of the remote features don't work right. Play/pause works, but skip tracks dials last called number . Is there anyway to remap this in system? I'm rooted running charmeleon Rom.

Replace them for some sure SE215's and buy the CBL-M-K cable for it, problem solved.
Or go to Fry's they're selling the Klipsch s4A for 49.99 (50% off) right now, it's the android headset, only has one button, and mic, but they work.

Beats are horrible headphones. Any audiophile I know wouldn't be caught dead with those on. Hype + marketing = Bose/Beats/Monster/Apple.
High priced crap.

Eh, I honestly hate Bose almost as much as Apple. I'm a huge speaker guy, and they make some of the worst speakers in the world in terms of what you get for the price.
There's a somewhat famous write-up where this audiophile ripped a $1000 Bose set to pieces and reviewed the build quality, and did lots of sound tests that test for decimal levels at various frequencies throughout the spectrum. The results were both amusing and horrifying. They're a brand who uses marketing and advertising to sell products.
Similar to Apple, they make DECENT products, but they're highly over-hyped, and you can get far better for the money you spend. I'll link that article if I can find it. It is eye-opening.
Edit: Here it is - I'd recommend you sit down and take the time to read thoroughly when you can. Quite an interesting read! And this is full of sonic FACTS, not idiots opinions (although there's certainly some opinion in it).

Lol idk about sucks. I have a pair of studios and they are amazing just a little pricy
Remember, Remember, the 5th of November. Thanks for support!
I'm sure a paper cone would be an improvement, but hey sounds good to me
This is good news, because whoever was in charge of the speakers in HTC devices until now needs to be fired. The speaker in the Evo 3D is probably the WORST speaker I have ever heard in a phone...ever.
Eh, I'm not too big on this. The Beats are overpriced moderate quality headphones; you can find much better headphones for the same price, and similar headphones for a much lower price. But it also goes to say that the Beats have a terrible overpowering bass that makes listening to any music that isn't rap terrible.
I can't see a ton of good in this. I see more expensive phones as the Beats start to draw the hypnotized audio market towards this idea.

Sound quality is good
Most people hate them because they assume it will have awesome bass because Dr.dre made them...
I think there are atleast 3 companies that make studio quality head phones that charge half of the price of beats
I have Ultrasone hfi-580's with bass boost
They blow beats out of the water
And for the price (120 dollars for standard pair) they will win me over
The only reason there so expensive is because a "has been" rapper turned recording artist (my opinion) has his name on it... They do look nice and hold up to some abuse... But for the average user they hold no water
Skull candies are better if you listen to rap
Not 300 dollar Chinese made Dr.dre beats

I really don't care about this at all..
Beats sound good, but the price doesn't match the quality... They are way over priced
If this doesn't increase the price of HTC devices then great. If they try the sell select models (which they will) that feature Beats and slap a higher price on that particular phone... Than pass, and I'm pissed they went that route instead of just dumping that money into improving ALL their speakers in all their phones.

I also got a fee upgrade from Sprint because of all the problems I had with the phones,service,and customer service!
Plus a nice 150 dollar (free month) credit
I'm using my free upgrade to get another 3d and making sure I get one with no tilt,reboots, and green pictures! I already talked to the manager at my local store and he "agreed" to let me open a few and pic the best one (hopefully he doesn't lie)

I do not talk on the phone much (or at least try not too), but I will only purchase a moto 'flip' type personally from now on. I really love the ability to quickly turn it on/off by flipping the mic piece. I have used a few different Moto flip sets, and currently also have a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ (recieved from work). They all sound decent (at least), and the wind/noise cancellation is excellent w/the Voyager (and gets better with the Motos (which is good),as the sets get newer).
Since I do not wear the set in my ear all the time, the tedious on/off process with any other set, really is a problem for me. Holding a button for 1-2 sec gets to be an issue, and then you forget and it stays on (with you forgetting). Then you think your phone is not working because the ear piece is be used where it is sitting in your car. Well, at least that happened to me once, a while ago, with my blackberry.
Another cool thing (maybe) is the NFC pairing - nothing earth shattering, but it may be the only way to use the NFC today .
I have not used that particular Moto model, but since it is one of their top of the line models, it will sound/perform well. I have experiance with their H700/710/H720, H17, H15. Also some garbage ones, and a Cardo Scala 500.
I may have liked the sound better from other units in the past, but the on/off was always the most important think for me.

Bose bt2. Hands down the best I've used. And I've been using the jawbones since the first one. The plantronics voyager 975 (forget the number, comes with charging case. Doesn't do a2dp) is good with calls too though. Other than that my opinion and I've used and tried many bts. Is you get what u pay for. 150$ is a small price to me considering all my voice calls are through my headset.
(1200min or so a month in voice calls)
Ps
Bose sound quality is excellent (to and fro), good distance, a2dp, relatively good comfort.
Jb era is second because the noise assassin can get intrusive at times and muffle your voice.

So I went with the Motorola Elite Flip. I am disappointed. If I pay that much for a bluetooth headset, I don't want it to limit me no matter how inappropriate my language may be. Couldn't figure out a way to turn the censor/filter off so I'm just gonna return it.

It's as if no one bothers reading the OP's post. He doesn't want the jaybirds.
To OP, I've heard great things about the Motorola, but honestly I would recommend going wired. No need to worry about BT. Try a tunebelt armband that has a Velcro strap for the dangling wire of the earphones. If you must have wireless, try the moto.

I actually DON'T recommend the Motos over the JayBirds... I have both brands, including both S9 and S10s, and still believe the JayBirds are better in sound quality and comfort. There really is nothing better right now, I don't think...
That's why people keep ignoring the damn first post and saying go with JayBirds, lol.
i see that jaybird came out with the new JF4 headphones which is 40% smaller then the freedoms but it has less battery time. They also didnt fix the reception issues.. oh well, ill wait and see for now guys.
I have the Moto S10-HD they are great. They seem to sit a little low on my head but otherwise very comfortable and have stood up to running in extremely humid weather. Even withstood a small rainstorm that popped up during a run.

Very sweat proof I use these every other day on my mountain bike w/Pandora.

I want to know what ya'll think?How do you guy feel about beats audio?
I won't miss Beats at all, it's a terrible thing. It only makes crap headphones sound better.
Good read!
I'm surprised no manufacture has a TV tuner installed on there device! Watch football OTA without a data connection.
Next year's Evo at $100 or $150 not a bad idea. What they need to do is be more timely on their updates and allow us to frigging use m10 tools

I hope its not a 100$ evo.
Then it wont be as exclusive ..they just need to beat Sammy.. Samsung knew the gs3 had nothing on the HOX so what they do..add a GB of ram..and now everyone who has a gs3 uses that as the reason as to why its better ..

It is very unlikely that HTC is going to beat Samsung in the near future. Samsung is outselling HTC almost 10 to 1. The GS3 is going to sell better because people will be more attracted to it because Samsung is the more popular brand. I will guarantee you that most of the sales that these phones see are from people who wouldn't even know the difference between 1GB of RAM and 2GB of RAM.
It's all about keeping up to date with their phones. Releasing updates to the OS a year after they've been released isn't the way to keep loyal customers.
Beats was one of the selling points for me as a semi-pro musician and audiophile. Combined with my high-end Ultimate Ears, it is unbeatable. Amazing!
With that said, cutting profit margins and releasing a flagship phone, instead of a chain of phones that are indecipherable and confusing would be a good idea for HTC. At least give them memorable, highly-marketable names, and pummel the target audience with effective advertising.
The recent HTC commercial was an epic fail.

I agree with beats audio,they make my ultimate ears sound really nice. Also my car blutooth and friends cars sound really nice with beats audio. I don't see how anyone could not like them. I listen to very high end equipment and beats audio is awesome,sadly the feature is 100x better then there headphones.

handbeezy's to anyone who helps keep HTC alive :3
I don't agree with removing beats from future phones. It's not a deal maker but a nice touch.

I'll be honest.. I really liked the way my phone sounded with beats.. so much so I bought a pair of tours... anyways I do believe using Apollo with cm10 seems louder to me
Meaningless read, HTC could if it would and would if it could, it might since it could.
So back to reality. I rock the green house with beats over blue tooth into an installed system. Great sound, @ no 3g the battery drops about 3.5% an hour with bluetooth and gps on.
A nice strategy might be to compare HTC's "connectivity range" vs the rest. Of course they would have to build it like the OG. Sprint could then lower it's costs by having less towers, or Sprint could then claim to have increased it's network.
I personally think the DOC is more responsible for the improved sound than Beats. I have musician's ears and thousands of dollars of audio equipment, and I never turn beats on because all I hear is an increase in bass and a muddied mid-bass. Not a fan of it. ESPECIALLY the headphones, which are a complete rip-off!

That's a MUCH better set of headphones. Also look into Sennheiser, and Polk. Good bang for your buck!

Hahaha I guess XDA is worried about bromance issues... I would have used that on a lot of your rant posts too.
But seriously, come on with this Beats Audio mumbo jumbo. It's a freakin' EQ! We HAVE those already. Only I can actually control mine, instead of having one preset mode only. Eh, whatever. If it sells, good for HTC.

Yeah, beats is kind of a gimmick imo. Just good marketing for people who automatically think it means audio will sound better on this phone.
