Does the button work for simple functions like volume and changing songs for a galaxy s3?

Not really. I don't recall seeing a button. The piece your describing is the microphone I believe

Not sure about S3 but it doesn't with my S4. Its only good to answer/hang up calls or start/stop music.

No, the volume rocker did not work on android. Mute button worked fine. Solid construction and packed well.

Yes it does, the only thing that really bothers me is the button is really marked in any way. It seems like the button does what it thinks you want. Sometimes it'll pause music or turn the volume up when you press it in the same place at different times. But they sibs great!

There are +/- buttons on the side for volume control, but you can use volume buttons on your phone.

Hi, I'm able to turn the volume up or down on the buttons that are marked + and - on top right side of unit, I can also do so on my iPhone .

I use it on an iPhone 4, and the volume and pause buttons work just fine but not the skip buttons (previous and next song). Hope this helps.

Yes, the +, - buttons on the side are volume control. They have some other functions as well with a longer press, like skip to the next or previous song.

Tested with Samsung Galaxy S3 and the single button control works for pause/play and skip track forward/back. To use it, press once for pause/play. Rapidly press twice for next track. Rapidly press three times for previous track. I haven't yet figured out volume control. It appears to be lacking it.

The button is used to answer calls and make calls. It does not control any music functions on cell phones

Yes, you just hold down the "skip" buttons. The one on the right increases volume, and the one on the left decreases. Just pressing the "skip" buttons changes songs as one would expect.

Not sure what you mean by "button feedback", but the buttons(volume and on/off) work perfect.

You should be able to manually program the volume button if the default program doesn't work.

im not sure they might if your talking about having sound come out then yea most likely they will but the button im not sure i have an s3

It depends what you mean by "work". I'm sure they will though as long as the s3 has a headphone port. The buttons on the cable (which are quite sturdy) will likely work as well (there are 3 of them). On my iphone, the middle button "plays" media, and the outer two buttons turn the volume up and down. Come to think of it, these buttons work on my MacBook Pro as well so they must be standardized in some way. Furthermore, the buttons seem to be independently wired in to the cable which means even if they don't work, the headphones will.

No volume control. Just a single button for pause/play, two clicks to advance song, three clicks to go to previous song.
