Samsung EHS64 Headphones and Droid MAXX HELP

[Paul Painter]

So I ordered these headphones (Samsung EHS64) and it said that it worked with the MAXX. The mic works and the audio is very good but the remote doesn't work. I was wondered if anyone knew what the deal is, if they even are compatible, or if they just don't work at all. They did work on my friend Samsung S3.

Thanks in advance!

I don't know for sure, but there is no standard for inline remotes in android as there is on iOS. It's not surprising that Samsung remotes work with Samsung phones, and also not surprising that the remotes don't work with other phone brands.

There are apps that you can use to use a double or triple tap of the play/pause button to skip back or forward, etc. I'm on vacation, I'll try to remember to post back here when I return (tomorrow).

The app that I used was Headset Button Controller. There is a trial app so you can see if it works first.
