Guest IBangU Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Hi All Ive got a Lobster phone which Im happy with but have lost the headphones. I cant find anywhere online that sells replacements. Do you think if I call Virgin on 789 they will be able to help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr_StrangeTrick Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Why dont you get an adapter and use a decent set of headphones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Confucious Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 No! the headphones act as the aerial so you need orriginals - guess a call to Virgin is your only solution (I hope!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr_StrangeTrick Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 You dint need the original, I have used an old hands free kit (2.5 to 3.5 lead with microphone built in) and a good set of headphones and I can watch TV and listen to radio as well.

Guest Confucious Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 The Lobster ones have a very thick wire, I thought it was necesary to act as the aerial - you learn something every day, i'll have to try it! any idea where I can get an adaptor?

Do you think if I call Virgin on 789 they will be able to help? Hi, I need to borrow £10,000.00. Do you think if I ring my bank that they will be able to help? duh??

Guest Dr_StrangeTrick Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Hi Confucious I got my lead when I got my original E100 and its something like this but its roughly 1m long and its one of those 'roll out from the centre' types. I have tried using my C550 headphones and the Lobster says 'No ariel connected...' but using my lead and a good set of headphones it works :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dearsina Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 You will get much better reception using the original headphones. Although a normal (and considerably better pair) of headphones with a jack-adapter will work, the original headphones have some additional wiring that make them better receivers of signals.
