Does the controls work with Android...specifically Nexus 5?

No, I had ordered these for an HTC and they were not compatible. I had to return them and went with a pair of Dre Powerbeats.

I don't know about Android phones, but I would NOT recommend buying these overpriced pieces of junk. I got mine at Christmas time, and here it is 3 months later and one of the earbuds has stopped working all together. Hey, for almost a hundred dollars, at least I get sound out of one ear... Don't waste your money!

I have the galaxy s3, the controls will pause and play with pandora. But I have not tried them with the google music app. The volume up/down buttons do not work. And if you hold the play pause button s voice will tell you what missed notifications you have. If you have any other questions just shoot.

I've found a few different answers ranging from yes/ no/ and only if you root the device. https://productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!msg/nexus/LJeoF7AK1zU/6ZyI9gQLjIsJCheck out this forum page concerning your question. The Nexus 5 does have the port for OTG Flash drrive compatibility but you may have to do some tinkering with the software of your device. Sorry this is the best info I could find.

The IOS version will pair and work with the android as far as the normal keys (QWERTY, numbers and punctuation). You will not have the Android menu key and back keys, and it is likely that some of the other special keys (volume and media control) may not work properly.

Yes it will text you to download it. I just updated to 5.1. Note going to 5.0. It pushes things deeper into thecgoogle ecosystem. I found all my emails combined under gmail. Not a huge deal, but a bit surprising. Nexus is not just a pure android experience, but more of a google/android experience

I used these with a nexus 5 so I'm not sure. Only the middle button worked for me. Although if you download jays headset control you change the functionality of the middle button, so it can open apps and play songs and change the volume. As well the mic works fine. You can download jays headset control here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.jays.headsetcontrol

This does NOT work on the Nexus 5. The magnets are polar opposites. Just discovered that today.

Do not have a Nexus 5 so can't help you with this. Helped with my Garmin, however.

I'm sorry but I can't help you beacuse my cellphone is a Nexus 4. I can tell you that works perfectly with an Android phone! Including voice commands.

Yes it does. I have a nexus 4 and the clip is large enough to rest it. So it should work with your Nexus 5.

I think it would work, as well as the "call" button. I have the Nexus 4 and it works. Unfortunately, the volume control buttons won't work. You would be able to create forward/backward shortcuts (double click) by downloading additional software, i.e. "JAYS Headset".

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.

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. To answer your question, unfortunately the headphones are being used on a Windows Phone device. All controls work fine on a Windows Phone device, but I can't comment on their operation on an Android device.

The original problem with Android is that it did not support BLE for bluetooth 4.0. With the release of Android 4.3 BLE support has been added. Since the Nexus 5 has Android 4.4, the BLE support for bluetooth is there. The next question is then have the individual apps like Map my Ride and Endomondo been updated to take advantage of this new feature. If they have been then this will pair nicely. I do know that there is a least one app for Android that has this functionality, I just can't remember the name.
