Try sending yourself a message and see if you hit play (after recording the message) you can hear yourself. Sometimes Ive been playing games like GRAW2 online and when I lose connection with the host or something along those lines my mic will stop working untill I reset the console. Also, most games will have some kind of an indicator when you are on Live that show when someone is talking. Do these indicators activate at all? (usually a small volume symbol that will light up next to the persons gamertag)

If any of that doesnt work did you try rotating the little circle at the bottom of the mic piece all the way to the right?

And im looking for how to connect my wirless headset to my xbox 360 datel head set

First press connect on your console.
Then press and hold the connect button on your earpieces for 3 seconds.
What ever quadrant you have the controller in will be the quadrant associated with the headset.
If you want it to be associated with a controller in another quadrant the press the control button on your headset and it will advance to the next available quadrant.
The quadrant selected will be indicated by the number of beeps you hear.
When the lights on your XBOX roll around and flash one time then your headset is connected.

*Note if this is your first time then you need to go to go online at XBOX live to get the latest dashboard update* http://www.xbox.com/live

Regards, Tony

I can talk to other people but they can hear me somtimes when i twist the plug i can hear them for a secend then i cant

Sorry dude, but it's really sounding like you got a bad headset on your hands. I'd test it on another controller, and if it still happens, then its definitely the headset. If so, just call Microsoft with your serial number and tell them what happened and they will replace it for FREE! The number for their customer support is (800) 469-9269. I've used it many times, and they've replaced 2 of my broken controllers! Good luck!

My friends can hear me through xbox live party chat but i can't hear them through my mic. help please :)

Theres is a loose wire in your headset most likely. Try plugging it into another controller just to be sure its not the controller. If there is a loose wire there is not much you can do other than buy a new headset.

You need a replacement talkback cable. You can purchase one through the Turtle Beach site or by contacting their support about a replacement.
