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 :-(
Hi, I am new here and searched for hours about the stereo issue. I have TCMP running and a Stereo-Headphone via a cable adaptor plugged in. Now I can only get mono-audio, but I like to have stereo audio for MP3 and video playback.
I found some information about A2DP and AKU ?? What can I do to fix this?
Thanks!!

Try a different adapter. You should get stereo audio out of it already. Some people seem to have issues with the audio adapters only giving mono sound. My guess is that it either plugs in slightly too far or not quite far enough on some phones. I've been lucky and have had no problems. But mine have been stick type adapters and I don't know that I would necessarily recommend those either since they seem to put a strain on your headphone jack. Mine is starting to go bad, I think it's pulling off the pcb a bit, from using the adapter.
I'm curious to know if sound will be passed to the HTC USB aswell as the 3.5" jack ?
I use the E100 adapter all the time as its nice and simple to skip a track and make/answer a call when out and about.
Dont fancy pulling out the HD to skip a track or answer a call all the time

Nobody has any idea ?
I don't the answer to your question, but the answer to your problem is bluetooth. My headphones change volume, track, play/pause and answer the phone. Music resumes after the call. This is using Motorola S805 headphones, WM6 and Mortplayer.
Sound is via jack only, but indeed Bluetooth is a great solution.
Cheers for your replies....

Doesn't the mini USB port need to support sound in order for a wired hands-free headset to work? I'd be really surprised if they a) required a bluetooth headset for hands-free or b) required two jacks (3.5mm and miniUSB) in order to use wired hands-free headset.
If the 3.5 jack has more contacts than just the normal stereo then maybe they have a wired headset that works just from the 3.5mm. It will be interesting to see how they've done it.
It is confusing to me, since the few previewers reported a dedicated audio jack and USB only for charging/data (ActiveSync). HTC in their 16/9 press release do mention the audio jack in the press release, but in the feature list it is not quoted, but there is mention of ExtUSB, but no mention of audio on it. On other HTC press releases for previous models ExtUSB is usually mentioned with audio next to it. Well I guess it is wait and see
Update: This French review in English also says audio jack also for handsfree http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aiw5PsQ50Uc
Check the review on GSMArena - the headset works off the audio jack, so no need to have audio via ExtUSB...
Mmm The Earphones supplied are 4 pole, Earth, Mic, Left and Right.
So disapointed if the Ext USB doest carry sound too... Will make the whole Car mount job look untidy but worst is that you will have to take your HD out of your pocket to skip tracks when using the headset... Sorry thats just pants !!!

Re in car intergration and control, I like this gadget very much.
http://us.kensington.com/html/14484.html
LiquidAUX™ Bluetooth® Car Kit
It comes with a separate wireless remote control that you can mount anywhere in your car, and the sound outputs via 3.5mm jack, so you can connect it easily to your stereo. In addition it auto-connects very well, meaning its really plug and play. It also comes with a separate USB port for charging, meaning you can still charge your phone via USB while this occupies the cigarette lighter.
Surur
Sorry to bring this back up but are we totally sure that the mini usb doesn't carry audio? I haven't been able to get it to work on my car hands free kit but maybe i'm missing something??
If it doesn't i think HTC have misssed a trick.
I've tried with a couple of audio headsets, always says "not supported, disconnect".

Thats the same message i get, what a shame!
Is this a hardware issue or software? If software we should be able to do so,ething about it?
Has anybody figured out a way to disable the built-in speaker when listening to music on a wired headset? Currently my shadow (running 6.1) plays the music out of BOTH the built-in speaker AND the headphones when using them. If I use a BT headset and the BTAudio program (to force all sounds to the BT headset) then the sound does NOT come out of the built-in.
I should note that I'm using one of those cable converters to convert the HTC headset jack to a standard 2.5mm jack.
Can anybody else reproduce this?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Jeff
How do I connect the hero to the car stereo so I can listen to music through the speakers?
first you are going to need a bluetooth adapter or stereo that supports BT. Then pair them up and play. other option would be an aux connection.

Is there an adapter that uses cigarette lighter?
any mp3 player device that plugs into headphone port will work. Like the fm transmitter devices, that do plug in through the lighter. Just go to the mp3/ipod section at wal mart or best buy, they'll have it

DO you have an aftermarket stereo? If your stereo is stock, what is the year make and model of your car and i'll to see if you have the direct hookups. If you want great sounding music through your phones mp3 player, pandora, and ect.. this is the only way to do it (plugging split rca's in the back of the stereo and the other end into the headphone jack)
If your not so much into quality and just want to hear the music in your car a simple bluetooth device that someone reccommends on this thread would work - if your head unit supports bluetooth music streaming. Just because it has bluetooth on ur stereo it may only be limited to incoming and outgoing calls.
Then your only left with an FM Transmitter (worst sounding quality) not even the most expensive one will come close to the first two options you have above.
Post more details and I can help you. I'm very knowledgable with car electronics and installation.
Good luck

Thanks, It's for my wifes 2003 Honda CRV with stock stereo. I don't think there are any connections we can use. I believe we will have to use the cassette adapter (puke), but they are cheap...$5-$6 on ebay....
well, a cassette adapter is better than an FM transmitter.

Thats what I thought as well. Think that is what we will do.....
Yup you do have one connection that you can plug into. Its the cd changer port in the back... Theres an aftermarket harness that connects to a converter which comes with a cable that has 3.5mm tip on the end. This would be your best and actually not to difficult option. If you want to go with the super simple route then yeah cassette adaptor is what is used by many and its actually not that bad. Better than using an fm transmitter.
