Microphone detection bug? - HD2 General

So I have a 3.5mm jack in my car that connects to the AUX function in the stereo. I used to use this for handsfree with my previous device. (The microphone being used was the phone's microphone, with the 3.5mm jack outputting callers through the car speakers)
Does anyone know how to get the HD2 to properly recognise that the plug being plugged in doesn't have a microphone? It seems to chop off any voice function because the HD2 thinks I've plugged in a headset with a builtin microphone when this one doesn't have that.. It's just a regular 3.5mm jack.
Perhaps a registry hack? Could this be a hardware limitation?
Thanks for any help!

Speakerphone when 3.5mm jacked in?

Is there any way to get the speaker phone active when 3.5mm audio jack is connected? I use an FMtransmitter connected to the 3.5mm to get the sound out in my car speakers, works fine with music and tomtom sound... but when i get a phone call i would like to answer with speaker phone preferable with the sound still from my car speakers, but with the phone mic activated.
It seams like the phone mic is deactivated when 3.5mm is connected.

I don't know the answer to that specific question, but...
I have a very similar set up to you (though the 3.5mm jack runs directly to my car stereo), using PocketMusic and TomTom.
The in-built mic is active in this case - If I get an incoming call, or make an outgoing call, the audio out is routed through my car stereo (i.e. I hear the other person over the car speakers). The mic still picks up my voice and I can have a conversion. I'm using a regular 3.5mm->double RCA lead (i.e. there is no mic present on the audio jack).

headset won't work on tilt 2..help!

i have a headset, i bought a 3.5mm aux to connect phone to aux to headset (the ones you wear to go to the gym), but when someone calls, I can't seem to talk on it. is it because i don't have a mic? is there a way i can activate the mic on the phone?

Handsfree calls using headphone jack + internal microphone

One of the features I miss of my Hero that my Nokia N95-8GB had was the ability to plug in a standard pair of headphones (or 3.5mm audio out cable) and use the built in microphone to make hands free calls.
I use the phone a lot in my car whilst driving to and from work to listen to music and would love for it to recognise the standard cable (which it does - indicated by a pair of headphones rather than the headphones/mic icon used to indicate the presence of the hands-free headphones) and be able to automatically answer inbound calls using the internal microphone.
Is there an app for this kind of thing - I'm guessing it is something that is/can be controlled by software?
have you tried it actually? because i use my ipod headphones quite often and it works as expected, sound from headphones and i hold phone closely to my mouth as its using internal mic.
Really not sure what you are looking for. If you plug the standard HTC headphones in using the jack on the top then you can use of the built in mike they have to answer calls.
Or have I missed something?
I've also done exactly what you're asking with my car. I've had my phone in a car holder w/ an audio cable from the Hero's headphone jack to my car's line in jack. I was able to answer calls just fine, and the person on the other end could hear me. (And it was just a standard stereo audio cable, my car doesn't have any sort of built in mic)

im doing the same thing but people on the other end are complaining about an echo of thir voice. I figure its coming from thier voice being picked up by the internal mic. Anybody have any ideas? how can i cut the internal mic while theyare talking. would a cheap wired headset work using its external mic? i could cut the headphones off and splice it into the line in.
I have had my G2 since late September and quickly found out by accident that it does use the internal mic when a headphone is plugged in.
Mine is a simple adaptor from the 3.5 mm into the RCA in my car. If I have the volume up too high, it echoes. If I have the volume down low, I can have a perfect handsfree conversation.
With the headphones I have had problems. In the car, I have the phone laying down and the mic side up. If I am holding the phone in my hand, I have no problems. Shirt pocket, ok. Pants pocket, no way.

Recording audio from microphone input

Hey guys,
I'm just wondering if it's possible to record audio with own microphone (or other devices, like players etc), which is connected to the headset microphone input? Would it be possible to connect a mono chinch cable from a microfone to the headset input? Is there any app for recording this way?
Thanks a lot!

Yes it is possible. I have already experimented with an external microphone.
You can connect an electret microphone capsule to the phone using the headset jack connector.
HTC uses 4pin 3,5mm Jack.
Counting from the bottom of the jack the first pin is microphone+ second GND - third right earpiece+ fourth left earpiece+.
If you connect an electret mic between the first and second pin with the right polarity, you can use it to record sound.
It should be possible to connect other signal sources, but be careful. I do not know what is the maximal input voltage.
The phone will recognize any 4pin jack as a handsfree you will see the icon on the notification bar. Sadly if you play any sound on the phone it will be sent to the "headphones".

External microphone

I'm getting ready to mount my N7 in the dash of my 97 4Runner where the double din goes. This will block the internal microphone(s).
I will have the 3.5mm jack hooked up to an amplifier for sound.
Is there a bluetooth microphone available to use for voice input and the likes? Id like to somehow sync my phone to the tablet and make phone calls using this mic as well.
I know I could use a bluetooth headset, but I want the audio to go through the 3.5mm jack to my car speakers. Is it possible to make use of just the mic on a BT headset and disable the audio portion?
Anyone?

Maybe you could use a headphone splitter and use a mic like this http://www.amazon.com/External-Bluetooth-Microphone-W01171805-W01176815/dp/B006IL7BCA

There is no mic input on the n7
