When I press the microphone button on my Skullcandy Lowriders,the volume increases,when I let go,it goes down again

I have a pair of Skullcandy Lowriders,and when I'm wearing them,they seem a little quiet. As soon as I press the microphone button,they're noticably louder,and when I let go,they go quiet again. Is this a fault or is it normal?

SOURCE: Loose Wire, please help

You will have to buy a replace ment jack and solder the connections. These cords seem to have different colors between manufacturers but start by soldering the green or blue (left) to the tip of the plug, the next ring to the red(right) wire and the base to the copper(ground) wire. Try to get a plug with a metal shield that unscrews and make sure you thread the cable through the shield right way around( threads towards plug before you solder.

SOURCE: weird sound.

You will have to test the wiring from the plug to the speakers individually with a volt ohm meter. Wires this thickness break or go intermittent easily. Don't take them apart if they are still on warranty. Take them back to where you bought them and get replacements. Be sure to take the original packaging if you still have it and the sales receipt.

SOURCE: my skullcandy earphones are busted

could be caused by the way you wrap them up the cords should never be wound tightly it causes a short and it just so happens that earphones are made of light weight wiring to make them seem to disapear when wearing them so what to do is instead of winding them when your done simply fold them loosely so to speak

If you live in the USA or Canada Skull Candy have a lifetime warranty on thier products so I would check with them. Even if you don't still enquire.

Headphone Repair

The cable that is used in the headphones is actually very low quality and very weak so easily broken, You may be able to remove the wiring from another pair of headphones and use it.
Unfortunately Skullcandy are not a high end brand so no spare parts are really available as they are made in china as you can see on the following link.

My skullcandy icon2 rasta headphones have a very low volume and when I press the volume increase button it doesnt increase

I found this on thier website - It occurs to me that this is a techincal fault so should be covered by the warranty.
In the US and Canada, all Skullcandy products have a limited manufacturers lifetime warranty in two categories:
Aggressive Listening Discount: If your headphones broke because of a crazy crash on the mountain or a violent head-banging session, or any other reason that is not a product defect, we'll still hook you up with 50% off a replacement in our online store.
Defective Product Replacement: The item broke for no good reason. Tell us what happened and we will send you a voucher to replace the defective product with a product of equal value. Manufacturing defects generally appear within the first year of ownership.

Microphone volume goes down automatically

Go to control panel and select the sound option

There you will find microphone settings that are enabled, one of them is set to on and adjusts volume automatically as the noise increases, jsut disable that option

Lowrider 360 Skullcandy Headphones don't seem to work on my xbox.

The thing you need to realize is, the headphones are not defective. Headphones cannot choose to individually make voices/game noises/music louder or quieter. Either they play audio or they dont.
What your issue is, is configuration with the xbox (the soucre FEEDING the headphones) Only there can you choose the amount of voice/game noises/music and their respective levels.
Below is a link that headphone company has on their site for the settings you need to change in your xbox.
http://www.skullcandy.com/manuals-and-drivers.html (see the second section, second option doesn "xbox settings for lowriders")
Any further settings will need to be assisted by an xbox support person.

I cant use my microphone on my skullcandy lowrider headphones

OK OK OK, the lowriders use dolby digital with WMA playback, and there is a setting in ur xbox settings where u can change that. BUT UR NOT DONE YET. press the Xbox button, go to settings go to prefrences, go to mic and check the box that sais "play through both." and now u can hear the ppl and talk. however, what they dont tell u is that the mic interfears with the WMA, so all u need to do is just buy an inline volume adjuster at walmart (wally world) for like 3 bux (the one that coems with it is regualted by FDA or wtvr and has no sound which is verry unlike skull candy). THESE headsetes arnt cheaply made at all 2 tell the truth, they shooda came with instructions, but once u get em going, they r insane! i have a pair of turtle beach x5s and its nice, but not as good asthe lowriders. and anotehr feture they dont tell u, if u get a volume adjuster with the "base gain" swicth, it works on the lowriders, so u can add a little rumble and umph to ur headset.
