Using WH-500 headset with my N900
After 2 of my nokia headphones disabled I purchased Nokia WH-500 and it works perfectly fine with my N900. The music quality is excellent, But there is a small problem, the navigation keys (Call receive, volume, rewind, fwd, pause / play) doesn't work. Although with my N95 it works.
Based upon compatibility issue, is there any command in X-Terminal that can make these navigation keys work with my N900? thanks in Advance |

Try "Headset Control" from app manager...

I haven't tried that, i just saw it was there...
Anyways, now i installed it and connected headphones with controls that i had for my 5800 and it really doesn't work.. Any ideas anyone? TRX. |

Have you tried to unpair and pair it again after installing headset cotrol? Maybe this will help

Though I don't have the WH-500, I am currently using the BH-503 and it works perfectly. I didn't have to configure anything on xterminal. Can we get response from those that use that same headset to know their challenges.

these headsets dont work same as they work with Symbian based phones such as 5800, n95, 97 etc.... I was surprised too. head control only works withe headset that is out of box with n900:mad:
tried to get some response from Nokia care but futile effort. |

Apserlutely garantee someone can make it work, this is something small and i bet all it takes is 5 minutes for a dev to figure out what needs doing.

So, i'm guessing when these bugs are fixed it will work on PR1.3 also... Headset is found by the phone tho, dmesg gives the following : Quote:

If I am not wrong Headset-Control is designed for music that he handles mediaplayer functions like pause/play, Revind, fwd etc. So how is it helpful with N900 which consists of a headset with no Media keys? |
Re: Using WH-500 headset with my N900
It turns out that headset-control in fact does work. But it is designed for original N900 headset or others with ONE button...
Hardware wise as noted by joerg_rw it should be possible but there is NO software for it yet. TRX. |
Re: Using WH-500 headset with my N900
Yeah, being a part of open source, we need to design an API that will make it work with any nokia Headset

So tell me with me WH-500 there is a button for answer/end call, will it work pause and play? With rest of the buttons not working? |
Re: Using WH-500 headset with my N900
Probably not, as its not the same signal.. Test it and see..
