Yes unfortunately they use the old phone headset jack for itIm sure you could find an adapter however so you can use any headphones.

Hi Carolyn! The wallet case, by nature, is a bit more to hold next to your ear than a "normal" case. The way most people have been using these comfortably is how a few customers here have mentioned, by folding the "wallet side" behind the phone side and then holding it up to your ear. I alternate between a few of our cases and the wallet case took some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, it's very handy :) If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:

i really never hold it to my ear. the only way i talk on my phone is with a ear piece. i hate holding the phone period. I only roll with a blue tooth. I hope this has helped yo. But when I do it is not ofter, and it is not that bad.

S Guzman, Thanks for the post. I don't understand why Verizon keeps tryingto make it so hard to play your own songs. They disable funtions andmake the phones worse. I wish we could just buy the phones seperately and then sign up for service. Thanks again for the post.FC

Thanks Mark! I just want to know how I just want to know if I can use my headphones with mini 3.5 jack so I won't wake up my family. Will the phone out at the rear fit my stereo headset jack? Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem. I just bought Bluetooth headphones. But I would try a drill. Just bore the hole a hair bigger until it fits. With it off the phone off coarse.

Yeah. When I got mine, it was a little jangy with the bluetooth connection, too. I have an LG VX8300 and I'm on Verizon. What happened is it connects, but then it won't let me dial from the screen. I then just left it alone for about 10 minutes and then came back to it and it was dialing to my phone no problem. I think it just has to take a little time to set at first. I was getting really frustrated with it at first but now it works just fine. I have my phone set to connect whenever the device is on and near and it dials through it no problem. One thing that may make a difference is the power on/off. I'm pretty sure that you want to do the soft power down option instead of the full shut down (where you hold the power button for 5 seconds). It should work out for you. Kinda sux that the plug is a 2.5 mm headphone jack, the speaker could be louder and I wish the car charger plugged in through mount. Still a very good unit. :o)

Hi!At first the reception was pretty bad. Not sure if it was the area I'm in or the phone, but it did get much better. Under the settings there is a sound mode that can be adjusted. You can give the phone a try and if it doesn't work, there should be a money-back guarantee time frame so you can return the device. Hope this helps.

Hi Kathy, I bought this particular set of phones as a gift for my parents, but have a similar 3 piece set at my house. All three of my phones and I believe this phone are regular phones- hold to your ear- unless you press the button with the picture of the speaker. There may be an option in settings as well, I'm not sure.

I bought this phone a coupple of months ago and I can´t make it to work. I can talk but I don´t have internet, the service provider says it´s not fully unloked, that the internet service is attached to Verizon. Any help before I ask for a refound!!!

I had this problem. The person on the other end of my call always complained of hearing a delay/echo when speaking. I turned off noise suppression (settings&gt;networks tab&gt;call&gt;noise suppression) and poof, no more complaints. I had had this phone for only a couple days at that point so I'm not sure if it was really something to do with the case, or just something quirky with the phone.

The phones usually come with a usb cord, which plugs into the square wall charger attachment, and earbuds. Generally, the earbuds don't fit into ears very well, so plan on buying new ones that don't cause you pain. If you buy from the right seller, they'll also include a case in the deal.

OK!........4 or All of mine are making sequel and crackling sounds when a phone call comes in. I was told to unplug the charger and let it set for 15 minutes and then plug them back in. They are still making large crackling sounds and squeals! Now what should I do because I purchase the 6 set through amazon. The one out in the shop I doubt is a problem so I'm not worried about #6! Up until last week everything was great. Now I'm having problems and I put in new rechargeable batteries but I still get the screeching and scratching noises! Bruce HartogWildwood, FL 34785

I was able to get my unit to ring,but only last a day then you have to reset it again, It sounds like you have defective unit. I would return it for your money back or a better unit. My unit starts ringing if I use my cordless phone!

Hi Mauricio, Are you out jogging or you use the usb to plug in. It because that is the good thing about these. If you can use the wireless feature if your running and using use the wireless connecting to your phone. If you have a older phone update your phone to get a Blue tooth option. Let me know if that helps.

There is a WIDE plug and a narrow plug, you have to open it up and find out. No other way. See a professional if you're not comfortable. Besides that phone is over 5 years old and at this point isn't even worth the screen you're buying. Fixing your LCD problem is another thing, this is the DIGITIZER.

I, too had problems with my glasses. On top of wearing glasses, I have small ears, so it simply does not fit. My boyfriend loves his, but I can't keep fiddling with something in order to be hands-free. Unfortunately, I'm back in the market for another Bluetooth.
