Here's the deal...I bought a car mount when I bought my XV6800, so I can use it in the car with GPS, however, the audio also come sout of the GPS port, so if I want to listen to music thru my car stero (that has an aux input), I have to use this adapter - LINK...
...of course, then I cannot be charging it while using that adaptor, plus the PDA cannot mount with the audio cable coming out the bottom. so, that is my problem...
Is there a car mount that has a USB extension maybe so that I can have it mounted and charging with ALSO able to run my audio to the aux heaphone (1/8th inch) jack?.
THANKS!

your 6800 should have come with the USB splitter...

you can get one under the accessories section of the verizon site, though, at $20, you are probably better off looking somewhere else.
what type of car mount did you get? do you have a link for it?
The Seidio G4700X has audio out jack... You can read the specs here....

Holy Cow! 80 dollars for a mount?? my xv6800 was only 110, lol. my current power-only mount was only 10 dollars...jeez
thanks for the site though. they seem to have lots of accesories.

Here is what I concocted that works well for me and I spent very little. Some of you may already have most of this.
Features: Charging station, hands-free, mp3 and call output to car stereo, very convenient position for thumb use in portrait or typing in landscape while driving (watch out), horizontal circumferential adjustment as well as vertical adjustment for bad lighting (good for passenger to watch alone).
Drawbacks: phone's mic doesn't work with 3in1 connected; you need to use headset mic (but could be spliced, extended and mounted in side column in car panel), wires can be cumbersome, extends a bit of tension on some connections if you change plugs alot.
I purchased six things:
1. ($15) HTC 3in1 11pin to 10 pin charger/11 pin headset/3.5mm adapter... which you can buy here:
http://store.wmexperts.com/htc-3-in...m=shopping_engine&utm_campaign=GoogleProducts
2. ($7) Retractable 10 pin miniusb to USB2 adapter, something like this:
http://www.provantage.com/belkin-f3u138v03-rtc~7BELC16A.htm
3. ($6) Monster audio cassette adapter:
http://www.thebestsupply.com/MONSTER_3_5mm_iPod_Cassette_Tape_Adapter_p/pcs-ipodcassette.htm
4. ($8) USB2 to cigarette adapter:
http://www.digitlook.com/ILUV-I109BLK-DC-CIGARETTE-LIGHTER-ADAPTER-WITH-USB-OUTPUT_p_2701-22035.html
5. ($6) HTC Mogul/XV6800 Snap-on case with swivel belt clip:
http://cgi.ebay.com/BLACK-SNAP-ON-C...ryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
6. ($3) Vent mounted cup holder from Autozone. Mine is mesh and a little better than others I have seen, but nothing elegant by far.
Total of $45 total and you can use much of these things for many other things, especially the retractable and the headset.
Take the cupholder and put it in the vent nearest your right side of the steering wheel. Clip on the back of the Titan hard case with the belt clip on the side of the cupholder. Your phone will be snug to fit so you may want to sand down some of the little tips but only a hair so you can slide the phone out but not so much it falls out.
The retractable usbmini goes to cigarette lighter, 3.5 mm goes out to the monster tape, and the headset goes in the 10 pin spot on the 3in1. All of that plugs into the Titan. Then put the phone in the cradle and it can swivel 90 degrees either way and stay in that position. You can swivel around the circumference of the cup holder, tilt it up and down with the prop style adjuster, and best of all you can rock it 90 degrees and open it up to type in landscape while still connected to the tether. I speak into the headset mic and voila. You could splice the mic wire and run it through your car colums and set it in the post to the left of the driver pretty easily but this is no high end fix like the Seido.
I will post some better pictures when I have access to a camera tomorrow, this was taken on the Titan.

p.s. - Oh yeah, and what does this mean... "*NOTE: This G4300x is not compatible with the bluetooth headset or vehicle intergrated bluetooth system, if you have the most recent firmware update, if you are planing to use bluetooth headsets or bluetooth system please consider about the G4300s model." - I mean, I have a motorola Bluetooth earbud, will that still work? I mean it communicates with the phone, not the holder.

BTW - when you're able to get a mint condition 6800 for $80 shipped, it doesn't come with anything, lol.
I have had them both. If you want to use bluetooth at all, either for a2dp or earbud, you have to use the 4300x. Since the 4700x has audio out, the phone detects it as if a wired headset is connected, and disables bluetooth. If I understand correctly, the 4300x lacks the circuitry for audio out, so the phone just thinks it has a charger attached, and bluetooth works fine. I use the 4300 with a dual xhd6425 bt enabled car stereo. Sounds pretty good, although there are some reg tweaks you need to do. My 4700 is at seidio now being repaired because it wouldn't output in stereo for some reason. When I get it back, it will go on ebay. Why did I have two in the first place? Long story, mostly involving learning the hard way about the bluetooth issue. PLus the 4700 was part of a package of things I bought from somebody who got rid of their mogul.
This is my third seidio mount (6600, 6700, 6800), I have been very happy with them. Support has been great. They are pricy, but anything else involves cables laying all over the car, and you can always recover most of the cost on ebay if you are a frequent phone upgrader.
I will comment on the cassette adapter, which I used up until the bluetooth setup. I had it attached to a GM factory stereo, and never sounded all that great, plus I always had to crank the volume down one notch on the phone (all 3 of them), or I got horrible static. A2dp is not perfect, there is still a bit of background noise, but it is definitely crisper than the cassette adapter ever was. A lot of variables there though, maybe my stereo just sucked.
i have an AUX input (1/8th inch jack) on the front of my car CD player. I wasnt going to use it for music from my 6800 since my car CD player already can play MP#/WMA CDs, so I was just going to use it for tomtom volume, system volume, etc...
thanks anyway
I have to second the issue on having to crank the volume when hooked to stero with aux jack...basically have to max out the volume on deck to get it cranking...but didnt really hear a quality difference...audiopara helped a little with the sound level though

Dear all
I am getting a Wizard and want to use it as my MP3 player.
But it has a 2.5mm jack and normal headphones are 3.5mm.
I know it comes with headphones, but I have my own special ones I want to use - does anyone know where to get hold of a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor? I saw one on Ebay but it was a plug and I think a very small cable with a 2.5mm plug on one end and 3.5mm socket on the other would be better... that way it wouldn't stick out of the Wizard and snap off/break the headphone socket on the Wizard!
Any ideas?

if i remember it's based in hong kong. excellent services. if you'll browse down the page you'll see the section for headset adapters. oh, and some advice if you don't mind. about a year ago i bought the Retractable Audio / Headset Adapter (the 26.50USD item)...it says that it's for the xda1 only but it actually works with xda2. i can confirm this myself as i asked the support desk. anyway; the advantage of this unit is that it's retractable, you can plug in any 3.5mm jack for your headset, you also answer a call using this adapter since it comes with it's own answer/microphone. the downside is that the wire is not as tough. continuous pulling or retracting eventually wears out the wiring.
i then bought the 3.5mm Stereo Audio Adapter for 5.65USD (not including shipping). works well and is quite sturdy given that the wire is sturdy and thicker.
so if you ask me don't get the retractable ones. a friend of mine bought from the same site and he complained about the wire wearing out fast due to retracting.
the site also has other connectors/adapters for other uses...like for gps and stuff.
cheers
I just use one of those simple plugs, cost me 70 eurocents only at a local electronics store... I don't see how it could snap off. The headphone plug is on the bottom so I just stick it in my pocket with the plug up and it's not a problem, since it points in the right direction (out of my pocket).
On a dutch forum I read about a brando adapter but it cost 20 euros :shock:.
The ones on the page Robson posted seem a bit more reasonable, but still, 70 eurocents is hard to beat.
edit: For some reason, I totally garbled up my english and left out some parts of a sentence... fixed.
expansys do one.
works well.
I do know all the HTC devices use the same 2.5mm spec, similar to those used on "walkie talkie"s
This is one i've been working on this one for a while, because I wanted to make a car kit myself.
I do have a vague pin-out of the socket, but i never worked out how the buttons worked, because i've never wanted to put a multimeter across it when everything was plugged in. If anyone else has information just give me a shout.
i've been using my qtek9090 headset on my qtek9100 but i can't get stereo sound only mono is there any solution?
Cool - thanks for the tips guys.
I think I'll go for the really cheap option - ebay.... 2.5mm to 3.5mm stereo adapter.
If the phone rings I will just unplug.
Ta!

I bought this 2.5 -> 3.5 adaper in Media Markt in Poland (I'm sure that in other countries it's also avalaible). This adapter works great with:
Wizard, MDA Compact, Qtek 8310, T-Mobile SDA and I think it will work with most HTC products.

Received mine today but on my qtek 9100 I have only mono sound(right channel)
Did i receive a faulty cable or does yours output mono too?
Edit: seems i have ordered a blue angel compatible one. my bad.
a normal 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor will only output audio in mono as the pin outs on the HTC devices are non standard.
The ones from Expansys are made by a US company called PocketPCTechs and are specifically designed for the HTC devices so will give you Stereo audio.
Well, I just got my Vario this morning, and a Hama adapter - part number 00 014011 works with my Shure 3.5mm headphones in stereo. Sweet.
Got it on Tottenham Ct. Rd., London for £3.99.
Hi, is it possible to demount box with "talk" button and volume potentiomenter without damage it? Did anybody try it?
I want solder here normal 3.5 connector instead of this box and poor headphones...
I've made my adaptor myself with a piece of cable, a 2.5mm plug and 3.5mm socket, wired directly. Works perfectly.
But Before I tried a Blueangel headset on the Wizard and it doesn't work. So obviously all HTC devices *don't* have the same pinouts.
I used an adapter I had left from when I had my Treo 600, it is the genuine Palm part, it works great, it come out and turns 90 degrees, so it has a pretty low profile.
Jojo
Shure i-series ?
I think the Shure i-series may do the whole job better, but I haven't seen the spec for them yet.
I want to use my Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5Pro in ear monitors with my Mini S, so I have purchased the correct adapter lead from Expansys.
I was going to make one myself, but it appears that Maplins don't sell a 4 pole 2.5mm plug.
Just buy an adaptor from Maplin Electronics, they are less than a quid! Any adaptor will stick out quite a way from the socket though. If you have a fave pair of headphones you could just buy a 2.5mm plug again from Maplin and whip out your trusty soldering iron, would be a much neater job!
Heh, my fave pair of headphones cost over £150, so there'll be no soldering going on near them LOL.
I read on the Maplin site that their 2.5 -> 3.5mm stereo adapter doesn't work on 4 pole sockets... That's why I've just spent £15 on the Expansys one.
Damn it!
Making you 3.5mm work with the Wizard.......
I have modified the headphones that came with the wiard and chopped off the actual heaphones and put a 3.5mm socket after the mic/volume box.
Audio is great except when you lower the volume slider on the 2.5mm headphone lead you get an odd phase error. Any one else come across this / found a working wiring sceme for the supplied heaphones to a 3.5mm socket
thanks

Can you confirm which of the Expansys adaptors you are using. I ordered one of their Wizard adaptors and only heard mono in the headphones.
There is a way to enable the built-in mic with an audio cable (made by myself) connected to my jam?
When i make a call in my car, i can ear the speaker trought car hifi, but i can't speak because the mic is disabled
You would need a 2.5mm, 4-pole jack and by follow the wiring as shown in the schematic attached, courtesy of a member (unfortunately I can't remember who). I've downloaded this a long time ago. I made a contraption using this guide when I had a generic PDA holder.
Now I now have a Seidio GM2500 car kit (Christmas gift). The advantages I get with this car kit are;
1. Two sound output jacks; 1 in stereo for connecting directly to the car sound system, and the other jack is mono + mic. The kit actually come with a mono headset+mic and a stand-alone mic.
2. Built-in speaker (though not loud enough especially when driving a diesel engine car at high speeds in the German autobahns while listening to CDs or radio and not connected to car sound system.
3. A power output for charging another component like my TT BT GPS receiver.
Here is my work (PPC Holder included) :

I have made a 2,5 (4 contacts) -> 3,5 (3 contats) cable, i have tried to carry out from 2,5mm jack a cable with a mic, but i need a new mic, because i have tried to recycle an old one, but it has 3 contacts and i have done many tests but with no results ...does the mic have the mass contact?
I suppose by "mass contact" you mean the grounding. Yes it does have. I'm puzzled why the mic that you tried to recycle has 3 contacts, was this a mic with an answer button? If yes then you'll have to find out which wire it is and short it out that it always stays on.
Ok, sorry 4 my english.... mass=ground.
The mic has a button to answer/call, but i want to exclude it (and now thanx to you i know how do it).
Then if the mic has the ground contact it goes with the ground of L and R audio, am i right?
yep! and good luck with your project
if U use a 3-pole jack, the built-in mic should still working.
For me, I use a 3-pole 2.5 to 3.5mm adapter and connect my Jam to the car stereo, and the jam built-in mic still able to pick up my voice.
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Yeah! Thanx! this is the thing that i wasn't unable to do when i have opened this post.
sorry 4 my expression
::::::::::Edit :::::::::::::
hemmm... it's impossible!!... this is the scheme:
1. Left
2. Right
3. Mic
4. Ground
(the ground is near the cable)
Which PPC do U have?
This thread seems relevant to my interests.
I have an orange m500, and it seems orange have messed with the audio jack somehow.
I have only found one 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor (a generic one from a local hobby shop, only 3-core) that will give me sound in both ears, the vast majority are a millimetre or two (hard to judge) too short to fill the jack in my phone.
Is it broken somehow, and I should get it replaced, or are orange just lame? This is pretty frustrating, you know?
Just got the the Motorola T 605 Automotive Music and Hands-free System installed into my car. Works great with the Kaiser (I have the TILT) for both Hands-free and Wireless Stereo BT profiles. When connected with a vehicle specific adapter harness, the stereo is automatically muted for incoming calls, and conversation is played from front speakers only. A long press on the talk button even launches Cyberon Voice Speed Dial (which is provided with the TILT). When using Wireless Stereo and WMP, all skip/ forward/ back/ pause/ play functions work flawlessly. Provided BT is enabled on the kaiser before the ignition is turned on, the connection for both profiles is automatic. Very nice adition for those of us who own a car that did not come with factory BT.

Hi,
I happen to have the same car kit and my Kaiser doesn't find it!
My T605 is discovered and works flawlessly with my SonyEricsson K800i phone (both for call and streaming music) as well as my old HP IPAQ 5555 (obviously, only for music with this one).
On the other hand, my Kaiser works flawlessly with both Plantronics 590A and Jabra BT8010 in both modes.
So, what could be wrong? I have the latest Shap's ROM (4.31) on my Kaiser, didn't try it with the stock one.
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!

That's a tough one. Mine connected first time to both BT profiles with the 605. I do recall a limitation on the 605 regarding how many partnerships the T605 supports. Although it's a pain, I'd suggest clearing all partnerships from the T605, and the Kaiser, and then try and connect again. I'm using a TILT, but had no issues with either ROM in my sig.
Which is better? The T605 or the T505?

I think 605 requires professional install, but 505 doesn't
So I'm going to help my buddy install the T605 into his saturn Ion (04). The demo on the motorola website says you can buy a harness to make the phone call go through the oem speakers and not have to use the 5W powered speaker. Is this harness necessary or will this happen for you when you follow the install instruction?
Also, If this is not controlled by the aux port on the HU how will the music (A2DP) play through the system? There must be relays in the HF unit to do this? Or will I need to go through the aux port on the HU?
I have the IHF1000 in my car and that was a very easy install......Other than tapping into the OEM wires this should be pretty cut and dry? As long as you know what OEM wires to use?
Motorola has been completely useless as far as tech support goes.
For Motorola T605 and IHF1000 vehicle-specific adapter harnesses, try the selection from www.peripheralelectronics.com (their CelFi harnesses), or the drive&talk harnesses at www.nicestuffonline.com . A solution should be there somwhere between them for the ION.
As for the integration, connect the RCA L/R output from the T605 to an available MP3 or aux. input, or find an aux. input adapter for your vehicle (examples are from Blitzsafe, Periperhal Electronic's Aux2Car and others). If there is no specific adapter available for your vehicle, you could always use Scosche's FM-MOD01 FM modulator to bring the audio in DIRECTLY through the FM antenna port (vehicle-specific antenna adapters may be required). The in-line modulator works without static, unlike that of many FM broadcast/transmitter solutions.

As mentioned above, the easiest thing to do is start by sourcing the vehicle specific adapter from one of those companies in the previous post and go from there. I did that, and installed the t605 in my car in NO time. You just plug the adapter into the back of your stereo, plug the harness from the t605 to that, and then run the lines out for the mic and for the controls, then run RCA from the t605 to your AUX connection (either 3rd party aux interface or factory opening if you have it). It's freaking great. You're done in NO time. The handsfree is GREAT, and even better is that you can stream whatever you want from your phone... I'll take shoutcast and internet radio over paying for XM/Sirius any day of the week.

If you were able to run another moto unit you'll have no trouble with this... it just adds one connection for the audio.
I'm sure the answer is probably yes, but it helps clear things up for me to speak them out loud.
Here is what I want to have happen. I want to be able to put my Tilt in my car and have my car to play music from the Tilt through the car's speakers. I don't care whether it is through a wired connection or a wireless connection via Bluetooth or an FM transmitter. Will this do this fine?
Like I said, I think the answer is yes, but I would like someone else to confirm it. And I was going to get a separate Bluetooth headset to use in the car and just walking around. I'll still get that, but I think this should be fine when I'm driving in the car and I must take a call.
Final question. How is the sound quality coming through the speakers and how is the reception on the other end? Can they hear you fine?

It will work, but I think it's a bit overkill if you're looking to go that simple. If you're not hung up on BT why not just buy a basic AUX interface for your car with a 3.5mm jack on it, then grab the adapter to plug it into the bottom to the tilt? It's not as "cool" or "elegant" but heck, if you jsut want to play audio but don't want to stream it why make things hard?

For audio or phone calls?
It's great for audio.
Phone calls are good. Nobody every says they can't hear me, but sometimes if I'm at WOT or have the windows down I can't hear them because the volume output is a tad low. I have a loud car though, so that's more my fault than motorolas.

Wiring Harness
Hi...I have a 2007 Mazda6 with the factory Bose stereo system. I am looking for a 3rd party wiring harness so I can connect the Motorola T605 to the stereo. I have looked at the places mentioned in previous posts to find the harness, but have not been successful...this may be because I am not sure what I am looking for. If someone has any information I would be greatly appreciative...
Thanks!

OEM product from HTC
4 in 1 adapter with a Power Status light contains the following ports
1. HTC ExtUSB standard headset connector
2. Mini USB power connector
3. 3.5mm audio connector (with in-line mic support)
4. 2.5mm audio connector (with in-line mic support)
Anyone use one of these?
Work well?
Does it have the problems that the other adapters usually have?
High-End.
I would like to know how well this works (if it works at all).
Could come in handy if I needed to record some quick audio!
Bought one last night
I'll report back when I get it.
what problem do other adapters have???
if you mean the difference between a stereo plug an a stereo/mic plug...
then you should not blame products malfuction on your lack of knowledge

Nice.
My goal is to record some audio somehow on to the unit.
I am a DJ and sometimes would like some "basic" mono recording directly from my mixer.
If this is doable with this phone and adapter I'd be so happy LOL

This adapter has a pinout problem which causes problems with audio out.
Asshole.
I have the 4-in-1 adapter. Works good. No problems. Syncs, charge all at the same time.
You willl be surprised with the size of this thing. Initially looking at pics I thought it's fairly large and big but it's really small.
Not to mention that you can also use the 3.5mm jack for TVout, but the titan doesn't support that.
Is there any way to just RECORD AUDIO from a source in to this unit?
I have always wanted to figure it out. With all the recording software for these phones, I got to be able to find SOMETHING that will allow me to record from an audio source.
Help?

while you can use a degrading word really well
is it also possible the solution is simple?
i'm not saying its the problem
because i dont buy these things
but have a look at a pair of "older than dirt" industry standards
its called stereo & stereo w/ mic
hmm...maybe i'm wrong...but i doubt it
I have both the adapter you're asking about and one like the other pictured in this thread. I had to perform the same *fix* with both of them of bending the top right pin (if you have the notched side also on the top right) down in order to get them to work. Once I did that, it works great. I can charge and listen to music on my headphones. I have not used it with any kind of headset that has a mic in it for phone calls or with the connection for the mini-usb style headset. The 3.5mm jack works and the usb/charger port works for sure on mine though.
anybody have the one in the first post with a Ryan Mogul ROM?
I had a stock ROM and my USBmini thing to 3.5" worked great.
Moved to a DCD ROM and I had to do the pin out thing to get it too work.
Now with Ryan's ROM's it doesn't switch to audio out, just stays with the internal speaker. Any idea?
maybe this one will work for me?
Yea, I'm using Ryan Moguls verizon 2.2 heavy I believe. I had to change the pin when I had the MR1 update, but both adapters still work now. If I plug the 4-in-1 into my phone the internal speaker keeps playing, but once I plug my headphones into the adapter, the sound switches to my headphones. Can't speak for everyone else's, but it works on mine.
Is there ANY WAY that I could use the MIC on the 6800 as a LINE-IN for AUDIO???
Mono recording is fine, I don't need Stereo at all.
I hope it is possible.
Got my adapter in yesterday, did the pin mod and I'm loving it.
It will be nice to listen to Pandora while I'm driving a Uhaul for 400miles

I agree with the last word. I bought this same adapter thinking it would work because it was advertised it would work.
i have this OEM product from HTC 4 in 1 adapter . it works ok except it doesn't support out-line mic ....when talking on the phone, you could hear them they can't hear you.
i have a friend who has the nokia 97 and he showed me an app where he can use the phone as an FM transmitter, kind of like an ipod. Is it possible for the TP2 to do that? im thinking not because he antenna for the radio is in the headphones and not the phone itself like the nokia, but could we develop an app that can make the TP2 have an FM transmitter with the headphones plugged in to access radio?
I think it could make for a great and useful app.

The hardware needed to make it an Fm transmitter is not in the Tp2 and so this is not possible. Ive seen plug in devices that transmit whatever comes out of the headphone socket so this would be your only option i think.
i already use such a transmitter for my TP2.
but it isn't useful.
the transmitter need his own power supply and the TP2 will not be charge while the transmitter is pluged in....
Mic is crap, for talking inside the car very bad.

Im using the exact same thing for my car
Good enough for listening to music on my phone...maybe that's all you want
try a bluetooth a2Dp carkit fm transmitter... wow thats a mouthfull..
Anyway.. search for one of those on ebay. I've used them for years. The unit itself plugs in directly to a power outlet in your car. You use the bluetooth on your phone to transmit stereo audio to the unit which in turn broadcasts the audio to the car stereo. I like this cause.... well no wires. The units also have a "carkit" function so when a call comes in it routes the audio over the stereo too and uses a mic built in that you speak through. Pretty clear I have to say.
They range anywhere from 15 dollars to 60 dollars on ebay. I went with a lower end one and once this breaks (though I've had it for about 3 or so years now) I'll be going with a more expensive one. I've found, at least with the one I have, that when there is no audio actually being transmitted to the device the sound that is played through the stereo in the car is similar to that of an old fax machine, all be it a lot less annoying and loud. When I first started using it I used to just run a loop of white noise from my phone in windows media player and then use the built in audio player in manilla to play actual music... also really handy when driving and using tomtom or something on the phone. ALSO really handy when listening to pandora or slacker radio
Long story short.. look up A2Dp fm transmitter and you guys will be set!
For just listening to music in the car nothing beats the direct wire connection of a 3.5 mm connection, IMHO. But, if you would like a full featured alternative I'd go with an Alpine X10. It has BT for streaming music and phone calls. Also has a direct Ipod connection, which is it's main use.
I've heard nothing but good reviews from the Motorola T505
http://direct.motorola.com/hellomoto/t505/
Yeah I use a T505. It works well but is let down by the TP2s bluetooth stack. However music works fine
I've bought several FM Transmitters, not for my Tilt2 but for different cars without AUX input....do yourselves a favor and just get 3.5MM Stereo AUX Inputs if that is the sole purpose of your phone is to listen to music in your cars.... You can get a new radio with aux as cheap as $100-150 installed...
I sold all the FM transmitters i've bought, the only nice ones cost just as much as a radio installed, and you're not getting full sound quality, plus driving out of town sucks when you hit the biggest radio station of that town, just so happens to be the frequency you selected.
If it's for another purpose, my apologies..
p.s., you can mod them up to sound better on some, you can add antenna (just buy small gauge wire or an actual antenna) - search for your unit to see if it can be modded to cover more range.. I ran 12 feet of wiring all around my Honda Civic when I was in the FM Transmitter phase..
Goodluck
