Is anyone using small portable external speakers with their Elocity A7? If yes, what is the manufactuer, where are they available, etc.?
Or can we only use earphones?
Add-On...
I just bought the Sound Logic ICapsule rechargeable Speakers and wonder if anyone else is using them? Should it work on the Elocity or does Elocity need special kind of external speakers?
How do you recharge the Sound Logi ICapsule speakers?
Please advise

I've been reading a bunch of threads on adapters to convert the 11-pin port to miniUSB and 3.5mm audio out. There are the mini ones (like the one from sensons.com) and many on Ebay. So what happens to the Microphone when using these? Does the internal microphone still function?
There are also these: http://cgi.ebay.com/2in1-USB-Adapte...165910257QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item200165910257 which have a built-in Microphone, but I heard quality is not the greatest.
I want to hook this into my car stereo with audio being pumped into the aux of my HU. A charger has already been wired in, but I'm worried about the microphone if I receive a phone call or want to make one? Feedback issues?
Code:
stereo out
/
{TILT}- external microphone
\
charger
----OR----
stereo out
/
{TILT}=(internal mic)
\
charger
Opinions, personal experiences?
Thanks,
Nelson
Well, I found a related thread, but it has no resolution.

I've was on the market for a high quality audio recorder but they seem way more expensive than they should be (£100+) yet the only difference between price ranges is the options offered to the consumer.
I was wondering if the HD2 works with a microphone such as this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-ECM-DS70P-Microphone-Stereo-Plugin/dp/B00005QBV2 If so, it could probably equal the high end recording devices. 200 bucks worth. See I have the above microphone and I'm trying to record in notes but despite the microphone being read and distinguished by the headphone symbol in the HD2, it's not picking up the sound.
Does anyone know if the HD2 can support external microphones? If maybe a certain program needs to be used to activate it? It could be a great solution for high quality gig recordings and dictations.
The HD2 uses a jack plug with 3 rings, which you can see on the stock headphones, and the mic is wired to the "inboard" ring your mic doesn't have. That's to keep compatibility with any standard headphones.
So yes it can take an external mic, but it needs to be wired correctly to such a plug. And can obviously only be mono.
Then, whether it can record full quality or applies a "telephone" filter to the input needs testing.
Mono would be suffice, but as there are two mics on the external device, wouldn't there be any way to allow stereo?
What kind of plug are you talking about in regards to wiring it to one?
Thanks kilrah for your very useful post.
Just look at the headphones you received with the phone, and compare the plug with the one on your mic, you'll quickly understand
No way to get stereo as the HD2 only has a mono mic input.

For the Axim X50 / X51 PDAs there was an adapter that took a 3-connector mic jack and rooted it to the correct ring on the 4-connector Axim socket. I tried to find an example with not much luck, but here is a link to start with:
(I am not allowed to post a link; sorry) go to mobilitysite and look up "seidio-audio-adapters".
Unfortunately, the seidio product does not seem to exist anymore... Anyway, would an adapter like this work on the LEO? I would think so, same concept.
Another alternative would be to use the USB port with sthg like the griffin imic but with a micro-USB adapter. Any chance for this?
Good question.
Anyone offer any enlightenment or an idea on adapters?

Yes!

Hi,
is there any way to get the internal mic on the SGS2 working when using real headphones? I also have problems in the car when using BlueTooth, my mic do not work - neither the car mic nor the built in one and in this case I would prefer the external one.
Also connected to good headphones - Volume boosting? I have tried the service codes but they all go back to normal again, do I need to Root?
Thanks
Define "real" headphones?
If you are talking about headphones with 25-60ohm impedance then the output amp should drive your headphone just fine. But if you want to drive a 600ohm HD800 then you definitely need a portable amp. (I wouldn't suggest anyway you play music with SGS2 as a source if you have a HD800) Volume boosting does nothing if you are driving a high impedance headphone.
I have a TF10 with in-line mic and the mic works fine with my SGS2. Music pausing, fast forward etc works.
Hi,
not all clear - agreed. I have a pair of Monster Turbine Pro Copper 32 ohm, but my questions was more headphones/headset. My old iPhone4 was smart enough to figure out if I was using a headset or headphones and keept the intermal mic on in the latter case. So is there anyway to get the SGS2 to work in that manner. I would prefer that and not have to buy an extension cord with mic (prefer short cable).
All the best
I would like to know if it's possible to use Defy+ like a recorder, not with the micro but with the headphone socket (like a line-in) to plug a external micro or audio source.
May be app can do that or if not, is it possible to create one?
Thx, (sorry for my english)
This app is very good in quality on the internal microphone: http://www.appbrain.com/app/hi-q-mp3-recorder-(full)/yuku.mp3recorder.full test the lite version before you buy full
Thanks. Yes it's a very good app. But is it possible to transform headphone socket to line-in or not? if not, perhaps I will buy Hi-Q MP3 Recorder.
Hey guys,
Looking to buy an external mic for my wife's g2, as she does a lot of recording. Looking at Sony stm10, but compatibility list does 5 pole 3.5mm Jack required. Anyone know if g2 is 5 pole?
Any other suggestions for a mic? Thanks in advance, as always..
