I checked nokia.in and it says the 520 has the American one. I think the phone in box headset should also be american?
If I take this headset and use it in my android phone, and if it works, it means that its the open one and not compatible with the 520?
I wouldn't know what headset you received we don't have the 520 yet,we do have the 521 and they are similar but no Lumia here in the USA comes with a headset when purchased.
So you're just going to have to Google the headset part number and see what comes up. A shop or a person who knows a lot about stereos and headphones should be able to find out if they are matched, OR not.
I don't know when this was published by clearly before the 520/521 but this should at least help you understand
what might be the issue
FAQ: FAQ - What type of headsets can I use with my Nokia Lumia phone? - Nokia - USA They do list headphones that are compatible maybe yours is listed, if not then that might be an issue.
