Hi,

Ever wanted to use your Nokia N900 headphones (WH-205) as a regular headphone for your Laptop/Mp3 Player/Nintendo DS/PSP/ etc.... ?

Just plug your headphones in your device.... and
HOOORAAA.... errr... no...
CRAPPY "KARAOKE" LIKE SOUND!

You can pull the headphones a bit out of the plug, you will hear normal sound.. but..... this ain't gonna work for a long time, since if you move a bit, it will be gone again...

Ok, now here is how to fix your problem if you don't have your regular headphones with you:


PRESS AND HOLD THE CALL PICKUP BUTTON from the headphones!

HOORAAAY!!!!! You got normal sound!

If you have a tape somewhere, you can tape the button so it will hold it for you.

But what if you don't have any tape or elastic or something else that can keep the button pressed?

Here is a solution (for your Windows laptop/pc):
Go to the Sound settings from your Windows and lower down the balance of 1 of the channels (left or right should be turned off) and you have normal sound.

Ok, it's not in Stereo, but you have good sound

Hope it will help someone else like it did for me
Now I dont have to carry 2 headphones with me all the time

Hoorayyy! \/

im gonna try this.... ive been using the headphones halfway in since i got it..... in my laptop

Buy real headphones and stop using the 2$ headphones that came with any phone

Whats the point? If i buy other headphones (which I already got them, as stated before) I still have to carry 2 pieces (1 for the phone and 1 for the other device, like my Nintendo DS)

So.... your reply is sh*t Arif
Please flush the toilet next time when u do a poop :P hehehe

You really should think before you start posting...

I second the "get decent headphones" advice too.
the included headphones are good enough for phone calls, but that's all. I'm glad I lost the "answer call" button for great sound and ergonomics.

Pair of Ear Candy Buds here... wouldn't change them for the world !

The set that came with the N900 are still in the box now stashed away in a draw some where.

And please keep your kindergarten-grade comments to yourself, thank you. He's trying to help, no need to be insulting or condescending as soon someone answers something you don't agree with.

Next time, you're getting an infraction.

i think arif meant to say dont use sh*t earphones that came with this sh*t phone....

im more pleased with the earphones than with the phone/whatever some mite call it.

If you read carefully, he said "any phone".

Besides, you can think what you want of the N900, but your opinion is not universal. I wouldn't want any other readily available phone instead of my N900. I love it ! The exclusive features more than overcome the bugs and missing minor features for me.
