I am really surprised they didnt work on my phone, as I am using an XE build, which makes my sensation like the sensation that has Beats audio built in. weird. Good luck dude, keep us informed

I'll just continue a bit more research in xda-developers.com and then i'll probably try the V-moda's on my HTC Desire.

Most Apple remote and mic headphones will work with Android.  The only catch is that volume control may not work.  The center main button will function for answering calls, etc depending on how your software is set up to read it (or if your phone even supports the remote).  If your remote and/or mic doesn't work (and you know your phone is compatible), you will have to use a converter cable which swaps the mic and ground keys on your headphone jack.

Alright I've opened the box and tried the earphones out!!

First thing's first: The control: The volume buttons do absolutely nothing.

Middle button works for Play/Pause when you click it once.

But clicking it twice will go to the previous track instead of going to the next track like it's supposed to.

Clicking it three times will sadly just go to the previous track and pause (normally that's supposed to go to the previous track)

I've tried calling with them and the mic reportedly works well.

As for calls, 1 click would also answer a call and 1 click would hang up when already in a call.

As for the sound they sound quite good :)

 

I've also ordered the Fiio LU1 Adapter Cable as recommended by deephile (Thanks mate), from this link:

I will update if it indeed fixed things.

Okay I've just received the adapter cable yesturday, and it's absolute rubbish.

I've tested it with my HTC Desire and my wife's Blackberry 9700.

With my phone the earphones were recognised as just earphones and not hands-free. So needless to say, NONE of the buttons worked.

With the Blackberry it just all went buggy the second I connected the earphones...

 

So bottom line,

Don't buy either of these products for Android or Blackberry!

Etymotic HF2 and Phonak Audeo PFE 122 both work fine on my Galaxy SII.

Play/Stop, next track, previous track, volume up, volume down all functioning as expected.

Using the Jays headset control app and PowerAMP and Player Pro as the players.
