i have a 3.5mm to 2.5mm converter so that i can use my headphones with my z1010 to listen to music. i just thought i should inform other z1010 users that if they do this, the phone will automatically answer any phone call and then immediately hang up. i dont know if this is the same for any other phones with 2.5mm headphone ports. |

What's wrong with the included hands-free headset?
You'd be surprised just how high-quality it is...

i dont think it matters how old it is, i think it is to do with the markings on the connector on each headset.
and cybacowboy, i agree, the headset is good, but it just seems weird listening to music in public with my SE headphones. |

Another thing you should know is that you cant use a "normal" SE stereo handsfree with the Z1010. The ones that I got with the Z1010 is almost broken and I was looking for new ones. But the ones that you connect under the phone can't be stereo because both will not work.

What about the Sony Ericsson Bluetooth MP3 Hands-free Kit accessory?
Although I don't own one and I've never actually used one, I get the impression that the stereo headphones that are a part of this accessory can be used to listen to the audio from a phone's built-in media player and/or FM radio...

Plus, you get the added benefit of a funky-looking stand-alone MP3 player that can listen to the music on your compatible phone from up to 30 feet/10 meters (60 feet/20 meters if you're using a Z1010) away!

The P910i also picks up automatically and then hangs up as well when used with a 2.5mm to 3.5mm converter.
The reason for this is that the headset supplied has a answer button built in. When you connect a normal pair of headphones the phone thinks the button is permanently pressed so will answer then hangup as if the button had been pressed.

My P800 had the same problem. All p series use the same headphones so the problem is the same across the range.
