disable built-in speaker when using headphones? - Shadow General

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

wired headset

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.

Navigation Software Audio over BT

How do you guys listen to your voice navigation software? I have the supertooth II BT handsfree set, and make and receive my phone calls through it. Now when I go into my nav software, the audio goes throught the loudspeaker, or I have to use the cable earphones (supplied with phone).
Using the earphones is a bit stupid, then I might as well not have the handsfree in the car. I would like to get all audio & sound to go to my Supertooth.
There was a site I found where a guy posted software that sends all audio to a bluetooth headset. Now this was a Samsung i730 post, now I wonder if it is not written for the i730, as I tried it out, and it switches my Supertooth on, but still nou audio can be heard.
Will something like a BT audio transmitter that is normally used to trasmit audio from a MP3 player to a hifi work?

Jack for music, bluetooth for calls

Hi *.
Default output order for Touch HD is: external speaker, 3.5mm jack, bluetooth headset. So when I connect bluetooth headset while listening mp3s, jack output or external speaker will be turned off. But that's not what I want. Is there any way to have mp3s [or any other non-call audio] played throught jack, but incoming call throught blue headset? I really need this.

In the settings for the Bluetooth headset, there should be two check boxes ... one for "Wireless stereo" and another for "Handsfree".
I am guessing you have both ticked when you only wnat the Handsfree ticked, perhaps? Would that work?

Works like a charm Thanks.

FM Radio with BT Headset?

Hi,
somehow I can't get my BT Headset get to work with the FM Radio.
Only the regular headset (needed as antenna) produces sound..
Any suggestions?
I search the forum but could find a topic, is there I any I missed.. let me know.
Maybe im wrong, but i think you have already nailed this one the clue being the antenna bit.
I was asking myself the same question. I imagined two solutions :
1) Take an old headset, cut wire 20 cm maybe from the connector to have an antenna (sort of). But I wonder if there is no side effect (infinite impedance headset supported ?)
2) Maybe there exists special FM antenna who plugs in an headset plug ? I have searched such device, but not found.
But there is, with both solution, a potential problem : if HD detects an headsed (even a false one), maybe sound will not be routed to BT...
But I'll try the first solution one day or other
When using bt headphones, I plug a dummy stereo jack to disable the speakers. So, if the bt is disconnected, music will not go through the device speakers.
When doing so, I noticed that radio works quite well. However the sound is not routed to bt headphones so from the menu the only option is to play through the device speakers. Reception is ok with nothing but a stereo jack, but this doesnt solve the issue of routing sound to bt headphones.
Care to try this

The attached app is for re-routing audio to a paired BT headset. I've never tried it as i don't have a BT Headset
You'll still need to attach an antenna of some sort (e.g. a normal set of HTC headphones with the ear buds cut off so it look's sort of made for the task)

Hi,
I tried it.. but unfortunatelly it's not working..
it's muting the regular output but still no output to the BT headset.
Actually, regular playback is also not working to BT when I use this programm..
thanks for the tip, it was worth a try.. too bad
Regards.

[Q] Using cable and bluetooth headset simultaniously

How could I use a cable earphone when I hear music over the bluetooth earphones?
I want to use two earphones without the disadvantages of a earphon-cable splitter.
No Idea? :-(
