Hi,
I purchased this carkit which is supposed to work with my Touch HD (I had one from the same brand for my kaiser which worked fine)
However when i plug in my phone i get the message "USB headset not supported" and the phone doesn't charge. I can call handsfree since there's a jack cable connected as well, but ofcourse it also needs to charge.
Is there any thing i can tweak in the phone to get it working or should i return the carkit?
Thanks in advance
anyone got an idea?
audio is not routed through the extUSB port of THD.. the audio out is only through the 3.5mm headphone socket ..
the diff b/w ExtUSB and usual miniUSB was the audio out being routed through the usb socket.. it's valid for other htc models except for THD
so this might be the reason!
..
i dunno dutch.. so didn't make much of the site u provided.. but looks like it uses the usb port for connectivity..
it uses the usb socket to charge, theres a separate jack for routing the audio. it just wont charge and gives me the error msg
as far as my imagination goes.. u have to tweak the usb jack of the veripart docking station.. seems like the usb jack is wired such .. that it gives a usb device connect signal ..
http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/2006/09/10/htc_hermes_usb_connector_pin_config
as per this .. the lower part contacts send the "USB device connect signal" to th THD and it can't recognise it..as it's not programmed to recognise one.
blocking the lower contacts might help! or changing the minis usb lead to an usual one..
but Mate! Its just my hypothesis!jus trying to understand the reason! do consult some more buddies regarding this! all of this might damage ur telephone.. can create shorcircuit etc.

I recently picked up a set of earbuds and a 3.5mm adapter for my Tilt and have not been able to get the sound to play through the headphones... Is this a radio version issue? I'm a bit new to all this. I flashed my phone to the most recent ROM from HTC, installed the keyboard fix and that's about it. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
JM
try flashing another radio...this is usually the culprit with no sounds...
I had this problem. When I plugged in the headphones, sound still came out of the phone speaker. It turned out one of the pins in the usb port was bent. If you get sound from the speaker with them plugged in, that could be your problem.
from my understandings...
There are 2 types of mini usb 3.5 mm headphone jacks. one that pulls form the top row on the mini usb port and one that pulls from the bottom row on the mini usb port. One works with the tilt, the other will not. More than likely you got the one that will not work with the tilt.

The sound comes through the external speaker just fine, I also tried ALL the radios and nothing helped. There are no bent contacts so I guess it is probably that I got the adapter that will not work with the tilt. Does anyone know of a specific manufacturer that makes one that does work with the tilt? I picked this one up off ebay for about .50 cents, no idea who makes it.
I had one adapter with gold plated on the 3.5mm headphone side, the connection to USB was bad. I had to hold it down for it to work properly. I have since bought another one (with L shape USB connector), it works perfectly. Either you need to juggle it to see if it's a connector issue or you simply got the wrong type of adapter.
What kind of adapter is it?
I bought a "OEM" adapter from a website selling Tilt accessories, and it works fine. However, when I picked up a Motorola headphone kit with a USB adapter, it did not work, and the sound would only come out of the speaker.
The Moto compatible adapters do not work. HTC specific adapters are fine. They are also available in 2.5mm if you want to use a cell headset with it instead of bluetooth.
The Kaiser requires an 11 pin usb adapter......I believe the Razr uses a 7 pin? if im correct. That is why you dont have sound....
A cheaper way, ie: FREE! is to make one yourself out of the cheap pair that came with the kaiser!
see this: http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php/2006/08/18/orange_spv_m3100_headphone_adapter_hack
its for the TyTN 1, but it still works for the Kaiser, its also very fun and great to show off to people
I use a mini-USB adaptor (3.5 mm) from Boxwave and it works great with my Shure SE 110 earphones! The adaptor was around $12.00.
Internal Microphone
When I plug my heaphones in, it seems that the internal microphone (on the phone) is disabled.
Is it possible to hear the sound through the headphones and talk through the phone?
I hate having to unplug the headphones every time someone calls me.
Hello everybody.
As the title says, I'm looking for the drivers of hands-free kit USB, I'm guessing this is the one for Touch Cruise, but it works well on Diamond, so I bet an HD drivers should exist.
Thanks for the help.
Let me guess? You connected a Ext-USB set to the HD and got a 'not supported' message, so now you would like the drivers?
If so, sorry to disappoint you, but this is not about USB drivers, but about the audio connection that most HTC devices have in the extra pins of the ExtUSB connector, and the HD does not have audio on that connection (because the wires run up to the 3.5mm plug) and will thus never support headsets or handsfree on the ExtUSB port.
Thanks for the answer.
You're right, this is the message I've got.
So you say this is not possible, but I've read some people who said they did it.
Fake or not?
You tried the experience?
up!
Anyone else?
I plugged in (for the first time ever) my usb headset that came with my blackstone, and i immediatly get a message saying 'Warning, The device does not support usb headset please remove' !!
any ideas?
There is no sound out of the USB connection, please use the 3.5 headphone socket.
am i being a bit thick? i got usb earphones with my blackstone that you are now saying are not compatible?
i didnt get a 3.5mm headset to use, just the usb one.
what am i supposed to do with the usb earphones then?
were did you get you device from
i got it from buymobiledeals.co.uk on uk orange contract
can you post a picture of what you got in the box and the boox itself
Doh! My partner just got a kaiser and I thought her headset was for my phone! Found my 3.5mm earphones in the box, guess i was being thick!
sorry for wasting your times guys, but thanks for your help.
well it happnes to the best of us

it was my understanding that although the extUSB socket has the ext pins, they are not actually connected to anyting on the blackstone side, so without a bit of hardware and some soldering skills, it wont be possible to ever enable the 'ext' part of the extUSB port
what i find funny is everyones major sore point with HTC is the use of the usb audio. now they finally give us a device with 3.5 jack and were trying to get it to work with usb

Agree - now we have a great 3.5 socket with socking sound there's loads of people who want USB sound. Once HTC provide USB sound I want a micro SD sound output channel !
lol
it did seemlike all i heard as far and cons go with htc was the usb headphones
I think its great they give us a 3.5 port. Just put it on the bottom so car holders can incorporate it for quick simple connections. Guess I'll need to set up bluetooth audio for my in car use. Hate to plug in extra plugs to get audio out.
Hiya,
You'll all probably know that on the TouchPro, the HTC mini-USB jack allows headphones to be connected (via adaptor), as well as a 'remote' which answers/ends calls...
...which is excellent, because I was able to develop my own wired connection to my CK-7W car kit.
I would like to do the same for my SEX1, particularly given the unreliable nature of the bluetooth.
Q: Is the mini-USB port configurable to give audio-out, and potentially answer/end calls?
Kind regards,
Oms.

It should be, you can get usb headphones, with a talkbutton, that use a standard mini usb fitting.
the audio for the X1 goes to the 3.5mm jack? There is an answer button on the supplied cable.
I thought the USB port was only for USB and power - am I wrong?
I'm not sure most HTC phone have audio out by USB and Mobile fun has
HTC Multifunction Audio Cable YC A200
HTC TyTN/MDA Vario II 3-in-1 USB Adapter
HTC Multifunction Audio Cable YC A300
in the X1 area,
but can't find anything on the net saying it will work
I really want it to work so i only need to plug one cable in when its in the car phone and audio.
I would love to know if some one has tried them.
I'll let you knoe if i get one
I tried it with my Moto L7 USB headset. Nothing happens.
Sorry
I wish it would work too...
htc devices use the extUSB connector and use the extre pins not in normal miniUSB for these features
pins the normal miniUSB connecter the x1 uses don't have so it can't be don
x1 don't support usbHost so the miniUSb connector only have 2 functions
being connected to an usbHost like a computer
and charging no other functionality is possible for a device which
don't support usbHost
Hi Oms,
I've just came across your post about the wired connection you made from Touch Pro to ck-7w. I would like to make a similar setup for my Touch Diamond2. Could you please post your findings on this matter and connections details?
I got the standard headset which comes with the HTC Kaiser. I now want to plug it into my PC and use also the microphone. Since its a mini USB device I would need a converter. I searched google and came over ordinary mini usb to usb converters.
Question: Did anybody do this already and did the microphone work?
Bump! Anyone?
Did you already find an driver for it.
It's a usb-device.
I would say give it a try.
Better buy for the money an microfoon. Hope you've great soundcard, so it will filter the background noise. You shouldn't hear your echo.
the usb port in most htc devices is not normal usb which is just a digital serial interface
but is extUSB which also carry audio IO
no pc have extUSB so it can't get access to the audio part
but a client server software running on both the pc and the pda
would be able to what you want
if anybody made it I can't tell
how about this?
