Does anyone use these with Samsung Galaxy devices? If so, do all of the controls work well? Volume, skip, etc.

I use the HF2 on an S4. The inline control is a single button so there are no volume controls on it. It can only play/pause and advance the track. Controls work fine for me.

Only the middle button works, but can function with multi-press to start/pause, next, previous. The volume keys do not work.

I find headset controls frustrating on Android. It's been that way for a Droid Incredible 1 and Galaxy Nexus. More specifically, the response to play/pause while playing audio and the screen awaking with touch response upon answering/ending a call using any brand of headset with in-line headset controls.

I'm not exactly sure. I have a blackberry, and the pause/play and volume works. However I found a setting on my phone to skip songs by holding down the volume buttons. Which works with the remote on these headphones. So I have full functionality, just not the way I'm supposed to.

The controls (buttons and microphone) are NOT cross platform compatible. They only work with iPhone.However, these headphones will play sound perfectly well on an Android.To get iPhone headset controls to work with Android requires opening them up and soldering in resistors.Here is the link to the hack:http://www.instructables.com/id/Galaxy-Nexus-and-others-headset-remote-with-medi/I am not fully aware of what models of headsets with controls work with Android, but I am sure they are out there.

I have an s4 and the music control function works flawlessly. I do not know why the other answer you got was incorrect. I use these constantly. The function is very spotty on iPhone but for my samsung it is one of the best sounding headsets I own. I went thru about 4 sets of different brands and these are the best.

volume controls on headphones don't work with my android phone. I can control is play/pause music with 1 press of center button, with 2 presses skip forward a song, 3 presses skip back a song. Long press on center button opens google voice search. (using with lg g2)

The volume controls work only for iOS. I am not 100% sure but there are NO headphones out there where the volume buttons work on Android. I think it has something to do with how Android works. You can use the central button to make calls using voice activation and control music playback and other features.

The sound quality is good depending on your blue tooth connectivity mine is on a Samsung galaxy 3 phone and it is good. What isn't great is sound volume. I consider the sound volume somewhat weak. Overall they are good. .. not great.

Yes, I have used them with my Samsung Galaxy S4. They are great, just make sure you setup your music applications with high priority. I used them for a call and was told I sounded clear.

I couldn't make it work on Samsung Galaxy S4 neither in Samsung Galaxy S Duos or Galaxy Note 10.1. It seems to be related to impedance issues. Maybe with a different Mic attached but I hav'nt been able to figure it out.

Do your volume buttons & fwd/rev buttons work on your headset? I ordered the blue S9's as well, but when I got them, the right side played extremely lower than the left side & the volume & fwd/rev buttons did not work. The call answer & play/pause buttons did however work. I just sent them back for replacement but I'd really like to know if these headsets functioned fully for you, as I may just ask for a refund if this a common issue with this set.

If you are asking if the "headphones" work with "mobile phones that run android" - yes. The headphones will work with anything that has a 3.5mm jack. (however, having a low impedance - they are more suited to mobile devices - where the drivers have less juice.) If your question is about the remote - the volumes most certainly don't work. The call/answer button works. But I have had differing luck with different android versions. (even with headphones designed for Android) Google messed it up big time in the version before Kit-Kat where they pretty much superseded the controls whereby it went to either Google search or called the last number for single and double clicks. In Kit Kat, I am able to pause/play (single click) and next (two clicks). I haven't been able to get triple click to work!

The pause button works, but the mic and volume control doesn't. The volume control never works with android products (at least from my experiences), however, I think I might have a faulty mic. Don't quote me on that though.

I use an android device and yes it works. Basically there's two forms of bluetooth connectivity : phone only and phone and audio. The audio buttons on the speaker interface with the same buttons on android apps (pandora, music player, etc). You can even stream youtube audio or Netflix audio through it.. And the same skip controls work.

Almost all the controls work on Android... I haven't tested the microphone function yet, but the pause/play/next button (one button with a series of taps skips or pauses, etc) work fine. However, the volume control does not. Easy enough to get to used to, still would have been nice to see the same capability across Android as well...
