erm so how does all of u listen to your mp3 songs?by headset or the handsfree speaker...which one sound better?i think it should be the headset but wad do u guys use?normal headphone's port is bigger then the 3650's one...do u just buy those "convertor" that u plug your headphone to it and make it smaller(sorry i realli dunno wads it called!)or buy other nokia accessories?

I don't listen to mp3... coz sound isn't that good. I've tried listening from headset and loudspeaker and both are the same because of the mono output.

I listen them on both, loudspeaker and truh my hdw-2, but the hdw-2 doesnt work very well with my 3650 :evil: :x :evil: :cry: :cry: :cry: so, i listen them more on loudspeaker.

greetzzzz

hm...only on loudspeaker?its not that loud even when its on max...i have ringtone studio but by duplicating too much it'll make it rather distorded...guess mp3 on 3650 isn't a good option huh? :cry:

Bought the HDD-1 Dual Headset with Loopset setting on the 3650. Works nicely. Compared with my mp3 player, the only thing is it doesn't have bass, so it sounds less livelier.

I use the loud speaker and its fine! I tried using the (mp3player) but sound was shit so then i tried mp3go and the sound is fine!

The only problem is that its not that loud so just have to hold it to your face!

A tip for MP3's:
considering the bad sound and all, it is posible to convert the bitrate and what not on the mp3, the size will decrease aprox from 3 to 1 MB, and there is actually no difference in the sound when you play it on your phone.

But i have a question, when i use Mp3go, with my headset, the sound still comes out the loadspeaker, have anyone experienced this, and a posible solution !?

I think the question is: when listening to MP3s using earphones or watching a video with earphones, is there anyway to keep the sound from coming out of the phone's loudspeaker at the same time?

u have to plug out and slowly plug in again, sound on your headset will be louder after loud speaker is disable thru proper plugging, sort of a bug but this method work as i have try it lots of time already. Hope it helps.

i was just looking around the 'net for a headset for my 3650, and since it was mentioned here i searched for the HDD-1 Dual Headset.

thing is, i found this one for �16.45:

and this one for �13.99:

and the cheaper one says it has FM radio, whilst the more expensive one doesn't. does anyone know if it's a case of them being identical, but just different dealers, or are there two versions of this headset, with the one with the radio function being cheaper for some reason?

lol
they are both identical, that is the headset that the 8310 used to listen to the radio, 1 of them just forgot to metion this.

even though with two headphones we wil still get mono sound... altogh it sounds better than my very basic hands free with jus one earpiece
