Okay thanks. Though I tried to use stereo headphones I had from my old MP3 player, and for some reason they're not working.
It works as a standard 3.5mm headphone jack, if you are using handsfree. there are another two additional connectors that connect the mic, but works fine with normal headphones, are you sure that the headphones work, is the volume turned up! I know it sounds patronising, but the volume can get accidently turned down.

Is there a wired over the head headset with a 3.5mm jack that will work with the universal?
Or an adapter that will allow me to use a 2.5mm headset?
I am not sure how does this work...
But give it a try http://pc-mobile.net/pxdaa.htm

if you're looking for just stereo headphones (for music) you can try sony's sports earphones -

I think I answered my own question. Looks like the ppctechs item will convert.

Can anyone recomend a replacement for the wired headset?
(To use for music and calls)
Mine have suddenly gone all mono on me :-(
is there any way to enable build-in microphone while using 2.5mm audio jack connected to car's stereo?any registry edit?Thanks in advance!
I think that the insertion of a jack into the socket operates a hardware switch so I don't think there can be any software tweaks. It is the same as plugging headphones in to a radio etc. the insertion of the jack breaks the connection to the speakers and diverts the output to the headphones.
I got a 2.5mm 4pole male to 3.5mm 3pole female adapter with built in mic and volume control off ebay for less than £5. A cheap 3.5mm patch lead to car stereo later and it works perfectly, other than a slight alternator induced whine is audiable when charging. This is more likely to be from my cheap car charger as it goes when not charging. I like the way MP3s etc get muted when a call comes in. TomTom, Mortplayer and phone calls all at the same time, I love my Wizard.
Guess u didn’t try it. I have my wizard attached with the car stereo and when I get a call i can receive it and talk, the mic gets activated auto. Works perfect for me. Give it a try should work for u.
didn't try what?how does your mic work?
Well I use a 2.5 to 3.5 mm converter which in connected via RC wire to the car stereo linein, when I get a call I just receive it and I can talk. The music stops I can hear the person call and can talk back, the microphone works perfect.
with mine 2.5->3.5 mm jack(done it myself, the 2.5mm jack has 3 poles, not 4) can only hear but the other person doesn,t hear me
my jack has 3 poles, bougth it from ebay some time back, works perfect for me
I have been searching for a way to have a cheap hans free unit in my car.
I have my mogul setup with usb/3.5 mm audio converter with aux cable into my stereo. This gives me mp3's playing and also I can hear when someone calls me. The problem is they cant hear me. The mic is shut off with this setup. has anyone found a way around this? thanks.

Use this adapter http://cgi.ebay.com/3-in-1-STEREO-H...ryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
and have your 3.5mm into the stereo, and plug in your stereo headset into the headset port. You will then have audio going to both the headset and the stereo in your car, as well as audio input from the headset. Sounds kinda cool if you have both the car stereo and headset on and have some music playing. You can also have a car charger plugged into the extra port for a charge while you go.
I plan to take a headset and splice to wire the mic through my driver side column for better mic placement. Now I just hold the mic in my hand.
Is there any way to get the speaker phone active when 3.5mm audio jack is connected? I use an FMtransmitter connected to the 3.5mm to get the sound out in my car speakers, works fine with music and tomtom sound... but when i get a phone call i would like to answer with speaker phone preferable with the sound still from my car speakers, but with the phone mic activated.
It seams like the phone mic is deactivated when 3.5mm is connected.

I don't know the answer to that specific question, but...
I have a very similar set up to you (though the 3.5mm jack runs directly to my car stereo), using PocketMusic and TomTom.
The in-built mic is active in this case - If I get an incoming call, or make an outgoing call, the audio out is routed through my car stereo (i.e. I hear the other person over the car speakers). The mic still picks up my voice and I can have a conversion. I'm using a regular 3.5mm->double RCA lead (i.e. there is no mic present on the audio jack).
Hey guys
In winmo 6.5 I could plug a 3.5mm jack into my car stereo to listen to music, and my bluetooth car kit would take the audio from calls and relay it to my handsfree speaker and mic.
With winphone 7 I have lost that option.. having a 3.5mm jack plugs in overrides the bluetooth and so all audio is routed to the 3.5mm jack.
I dont want to be unplugging the jack every time a call comes in, or I need to make a call.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Xander
