I purchased a 3.5mm adapter to listen at the gym. My first try was generic and I got no audio, this new set only gets one channel. I think it's got to do with a microphone.
Here's what I bought off ebay: 3.5mm USB AUDIO ADAPTER FOR HTC TYTN II 8925 MOGUL 6800
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=130239082614&ssPageName=STRK:MEFS:IT&ih=003
I'm running a cooked 6.1 Rom:
R 3.35.04
D 3.49
When you get no audio from the headphones (with your adapter), is the sound coming from your phone's speaker? Usually when those types of adapters aren't getting the sound through, it will come through the phone's speaker. You might want to try the HTC adapter that came with the phone with a 2.5MM phone stereo headset. The phone seems to be very sensitive with regard to audio coming through adapters and other types of headsets...
I have that one and it works just fine
What about registry settings? Would the BT Audio program that turns bluetooth to stereo do anything?

Hi all
I have a MDA compact which I wish to connect to my car stereo as a handsfree unit. I have an auxiliary input for my stereo.
Is it possible just to purchase a 2.5 to 3.5mm lead for this? I have a gut feeling the mic won't work - please help? Is it possible to buy such a lead with a built in mic?
Thanks
Carl
Hi, I used to have a XDAII which I connected to the auxillary port on my car stereo, just like you suggest. It worked perfectly. When using the phone, the caller's voice woudl come out of the car speakers and the mic was powerful enough to pick up my voice even though the unit was mounted on my windscreen.
Unfortuntely, both the Wizard and the Exec automatically disable the mic when you plug into the headphone socket. Not sure about the MDA comact. Sorry couldn't offer more advice on your particular device, but I hope my experiences help.

I do have the same setup. I can confirm U the mic still work after U plug in the adapter but I normally use a BT headset when I am in the car.
OK, so I assume that if I purchase a 2.5mm to 3.5mm lead, the mic should work?

Yes. 8)
OK - did some work on this.
I decided to cut the earplugs off of the supplied headset, and attach a 3.5mm socket.
I now have a custom XDA mini lead
All works, however volume from car stereo speakers is extremely low. Any ideas? (Yes, I have checked car volume, phone volume and headphone volume!)
Cheers
Carl

Hi Jackleung, my mic is being diabled, and i am beginning to think that I may not have the right connector. I have a standard 3.5mm connecting the exec. Can you let me know how you have wired your device with the type of connector? You may be able to solve a longstanding problem of mine.
Thanks in advance.
I found my mic was cancelled with the Mini, hence the custom cable.
hope this helps!

I think my adapter is just a standard 2.5mm to 3.5mm converter. I tried 2 different adapter (one from Radio shack and the other one from ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-CABLE-headp...ryZ15040QQssPageNameZWD1VQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)
Both are working for me (I will try again today and confirm U tomorrow), therefore I think yr problem is in the exec hardware itself.
To Carl,
Yr setup will not work since yr supplied headset adapter has at least 4 connection on the plug compare to 3 on the standard one. The extra connection is for the mic. If U cut the wire like this:
<---- X --- mic+volumn control ------ ear plugs
Then U can no longer use the mic w/ the custom wire. But if U:
<------- mic+volumn control -- X ---- ear plugs
then the mic on yr mic+volumn control will pick up the voice
hi jackleung
Thanks for the reply - the lead was cut after the mic but before the earphones.
This was because a standard lead with a 2.5 / 3.5mm adaptor didnt work.
My only issue now is the low volume!
Cheers
Carl
I tried it on my Imate Jam again. My mic on the Jam still works (eg: Voice Command via Cyberon Voice Dial. So do phone conversation) even I use my 2.5mm/3.5mm adapter to connection it to my car stereo.
Hi,
I did the same for me and a friend of mine with a Univer..er - Jasjar and connected this to an FM transmitter - We have excellent sound quality, volume and the you can still answer calls by pressing the Mic Button

(If you are gonna be late - dont rush, else someone else and YOU will be cross)
check connections?
I have done exactly what you did, put a 3.5mm socket on the end of the included handsfree cable.. volume is fine, and i regularly connect it to the aux in the car, and multiple sets of headphone/speakers...
The best suggestion to your volume problem is to try again.. i know i had issue with the stereo channels getting screwed up (and even combined at one point) and it was just trial and error getting the connections clean..
You have to ensure that both the shaft and tip connectors on the socket are grounded to the shared ground on the circuit board.. otherwise the audio will probably be less than perfect.. check for dodgy soldering/connection.. coz i can assure you that your theory does work!

There is another topic on this here.
The person from there uses:
http://www.expansys-usa.com/product.asp?code=PPCPADPT02
which has two 3.5mm plugs.
Description: It has a 2.5mm plug at one end (this plugs into the PocketPC) and two 3.5mm sockets at the other end (into which you plug your 3.5mm headset or headphones).
My question was: could I put a standard 3.5 car kit mic into this 3.5 headset jack (the one with the mic)? Would the mic work if I plug it into a headset jack?
I assume the other one (headphones = stereo only) I will plug it directly into my car auxiliary via a 3.5mm to RCA cable, right?
Ive been looking around, i couldn't really find anything.
Is there anyway that i can get my kaiser to sort of work as my i trip and play mp3's via my phone into my stereo?
I tried taking a mini usb -> 3.5mm jack and then putting it right in my stereo, but it didnt work.
Any ideas?!
.... Look Here
However you don't need a mini usb cable, but an HTC-Ext USB cable, infact audio contacts are in the lowerside of the female jack of the pda, so a normal miniusb (type A & B) doesn't work.
if you have brought a T adapter or a "3 in 1 adapter": charge + Audio +, if "3 in one adapter", a 3.5mm audio jack jack,
I hope that
a) your stereo doesn't work/have AUX-in/isn't the AUX-in activated on the stereo (3 in 1 adapter)
b) you have missed some contact (T adapter)
c) your adapter is weak
.. i have a T adapter, and have cutted my old hermes original earphones (see the pics into the topic linked before..), i Navigate with full sound on my stereo, and play music in the same time.
If your USB-to-miniplug adapter works with headphones, then it should work with the Aux In on the car stereo. As suggested in the reply above, maybe there is some glitch in the chain. Check the car stereo settings, and there isn't some issue with the cable, jack, etc. (perhaps try another device like an iPod and see if that works?)
If you still want to try a iTrip-type FM transmitter. Then one like this should work:

I'm not a big fan of BT headsets, does anyone have any recommendations for any wired headsets/headphones w/mic?
Thanks

Personally I love my SteelSeries Siberia in-ear headset, and use it with an adapter that has mic and volume control built in..
I posted about the handsfree set here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394845

Heya,
Currently I have a 3 way splitter HTCusb -> Power (miniusb) | Audio (3.5mm) | HTC Headset Connection (HTCusb)
What I need is a microphone only 'headset' to go in the headset socket, as the audio is allready being passed to my car's speakers via the 3.5 jack.
Does anyone know if/where somthing like this exists? or should i buy a cheap headset and splice the earphones off?
Also anyone else find the fuze is unable to gain positive charge whilst on and connected to a 12v ciggaret adaptor, it still drains but at a slower rate, but I do not have an offical charger, which may be the problem.
+1
I also have my audio sent to my car speakers. But since the phone thinks I have a headset attached, the phone microphone is disabled. So when it rings, I have to undock it from the cradle and stick it to my ear. I'd love to have just a microphone mounted near the visor. Anyone know where I can find one?
Wouldn't this do as a workaround?

Plug into the HTC headset connection on your adapter, then you have a micropohone. Then plug the 3.5 jack into the end (instead of the headphones)
The large block adapter that came in the box works for me and allows me to use my car speakers w/ aux input and there is no problems with the microphone.
I had this problem with my tilt with the Y splitter adapter, however the multi adapter that comes in the fuze box works for me perfectly.

Hi
I still use my Dell X51v PDA but now the audio socket is faulty, due to constant use over the years.
I have started using a BT headset for my Nexus 7 and it works well but I also bought a 3.5mm Stereo Jack Socket to 3.5mm Stereo Male Right Angle Plug hoping to keep this in place on the bottom of the tablet and just plug my wired headset, or external speakers, into it as required. This works well except that as this adaptor is plugged in it will then disable the audio feed to the main speaker, which is normal I suppose.
Is it not possible to have the speaker of the tablet working and at the same time have this adaptor plugged in or is it a switch which is operated on the insertion of a 3.5mm plug which will always disable tablets speaker....?
Next point is when I have paired my BT headset to the tablet is it also possible to pair a BT keyboard to it as well...? I have never paired more than one BT device at once so I do not know what limitations there are.....?
Thanks
