Plugging in stereo jack disables microphone? - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

All my other phones, HTC One M8, Droid X, all work when getting a call, pauses music and the call goes through the speakers, but on this phone no one can hear me talk at all. Is there a setting I'm missing? Looks like the stereo jack is disabling the mic?

Call Audio vs Media Audio with Bluetooth Headset

I recently picked up a Bluetooth Headset, and I was quite surprised to discover that my G1 was pumping ALL audio into the headset instead of just the in-call audio. My main problem is that I use Telenav GPS, and when it talks I can't hear the person I'm talking to. Ideally, the G1 should be playing the call through the headset and the GPS sounds through the built-in speaker. Is there any way to force it to behave that way?

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).

has anyone tried using your d.i. through the car speakers while talking?
On my SYNC equipped Ford it works fine once I downloaded the phonebook to the car...
I didn't bother and just use the built in speaker which is loud enough. I'll have to link it in to the stereo to see.
Okay so , Right now with my mt3g, I can hook it up to my car stereo via the mini-usb to 3.5mm adapter that it came with(it has a microphone on it),and I can make calls and hear people through my speakers. With the Inc. am I going to need another kind of adapter or will the speaker on the phone itself be good?
I found this out accdentally, but using a regular stereo cable from my DI to the car's aux input, I was able to hear calls through the speaker, and they could hear me via the phone's built in Mic. I was surprised the first time I heard it ring, but it worked very nice, no issues that they couldn't hear me and the sound quality was top notch. I really like how it will mute whatever else is playing in the meantime, like Slacker / Pandora, and continue once the call is over.
Hope this helps.

[Q] an issue with the speakphone microphone while connecting headphones on omnia 2

Hi friends,
I would realy like some help for an issue that i have with my omnia 2..
ok, so basically i was making a setup in my car so i could listen to music
by connecting a 3.5 male to male cable (which i've made myself so it would be as short as i need it to be) to the AUX input in my car stereo system.
The music sounds sweet.
I also liked the fact that i could hear the person i was talking to on my car's stereo system, and obviously the music stops when you get a call so it's very nice..
now I know that the omnia 2 has 2 microphones (which is amazing!)
one for a regular conversation, and another one which is way more sensitive
for the use while you're using it as a speakerphone.
The problem is:
when i connect the 3.5 plug in the phone it lets me select:
1. Headphones
2. Headset
3. TV-out
when i select either of 1 or 2, the phone uses the regular mic and not the speaker mic.
i can hear the sound of my speakers in the car
(or maybe i will even hear it the same with headphones)
but i can't have the other side hear me as well as he will with the speaker phone.
I know it uses the regular mic because when i disconnect the 3.5 plug from the phone and put it on speaker, the other side hears me much much better.
(phone and me stay at the same place at the entire test)
my question is:
is there anyway to change (perhaps in the registry?) something
for the phone to use the speaker mic while anything is connected to it's 3.5 jack?
any help will be much much much appreciated.
Thanks a lot!
Roy.
Are you sure the mic doesn't work when you select "headphones"? When I use it like you do in the car, it works perfectly. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised it did, as opposed to Omnia I.
"Headset" means the original headphones with the mic on the cord, while "headphones" means regular headphones, and then it automatically uses the built-in mic.
If it doesn't work like this, take it to the service if you're still within the warranty.

Stereo Bluetooth Calling Problems

Hi guys, so I'v tried to use my Nexus 4 and my RAZR HD and they both have the same issue. When I connect my phone to my car stereos bluetooth, it works fine for audio. Music plays through the speakers just great, and my stereo can reach my contacts. The problem I have is with calling. My stereo has a built in microphone, but for some reason, when I call or receive a call, my phone plays the other persons voice over my car speakers, but the stereo's microphone doesn't work. If I turn the audio mode on my phone manually to "headset" instead of "bluetooth" then the microphone works, but the other person voice doesn't go over the speakers anymore! It seems like the audio out is tied to my cars speakers, whereas the microphone is registered under "headset." Has anyone else ever heard of this happening? I just want both the audio in and audio out to be on bluetooth when I make a call.
