2.5 mm to 3.5 mm Stereo Adapter - MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories

Hi,
I'd seen some of these on ebay and some of the specialty sites, but I didn't really feel like paying $15 after shipping to get one. So on a whim, I went to radio shack bought one they had there, and gave it a try. It worked. Unit is a 'Stereo to Stereo Audio Adapter' 'Accepts 1/8" phone plug fits 3/32" phone jack'. Item number 274-373, upc 0-40293-13186-9.
$3.99
:lol:

but it dont let you use a mic and pickup the phone like this one does it ?

i plug my casset adoptor in the car, and listen to mp3s on my car stereo... and oh yea, i can use the mic just fine! its nice when im driving. auto stop the music to take the call, then goes back to music, very nice

For angry WM folks: free adapter

Here's a tip. Go to the Sprint store and say you have the HTC Touch. Say that you want an adapter for your headphones. They will give you a free adapter (dual usb + audio jack) which is compatible with the kaiser / tilt.
Now maybe you all can go jogging and burn off some of that fascist love of MS.
can anybody else confirm this? i may call our local store and ask about it before i waste my gas with a 20 minute drive but some more confirmation would be nice
doubt anybody will give anything without some confirmation and for free lol.
I give stuff away free all the time. Worthless advice.
....or you could just buy one on Amazon.com for 3 whole dollars and 28 cents......even with shipping, it comes to under $5.........that's probably cheaper than it would cost you to drive to your Sprint store anyway.

WELL SAID,
Why is it people are always trying to scam someone.
well the ATT wireless store does not have audio adapters or headphones for the tilt, nor does frys, and amazon wants $18 + shipping. its not official, just a tip on the DL, and if you want you can buy headphones at sprint to comp them (which i did btw) but the guy said i didn't have to.

Um....I'm on AT&T's site right now...and they DO have headphones for the tilt....and earlier in this very thread I posted a link to amazon that has adapters for less than $5 AFTER shipping (and that adapter works very well, I might add).......so what are you even talking about?
The point is, if you want them then why don't you just buy them instead of trying to figure out a way to scam someone so that you can save five whole dollars.
dude you have to ship from the website vs. going to the store. i don't care to wait 5+ days. Valt go jogging buddy, you need it

I had one of these adapters. It fit so tight in the mini-USB socket that it broke off when removal was attempted - I had to carefully extract pieces with fine needle-nose pliers.
Better off with Y-splitter type adapter, IMO - this will also work with some cases, where I have never seen a case that would possibly work with the above adapter. YMMV.

Perhaps you should take a little time and read you 9 posts thus far. As far as i can tell you've posted complaints about microsoft, a way to scam sprint for a free adapter that you could buy for $5 easily, and you have argued with people.
If you can't figure out why these "grumpy folks" don't think that your "tip" of going to a store and lying to get something for free cancels out your otherwise pissy attitude, then i suppose there isn't much value in explaining it.

Nexus One - CAR DOCK!!! Americans help!

Hey american friends.
I am going to the states soon, and looking to pick up a car dock. is there any shops where i can walk in and buy - without using internet + delivery.
(going to LA, vegas and san fran) BOOYAAAAAAA!
No.
[char length is ****ing lame]
ya know, I think it's better to just get a good, generic car mount and a car charger (+ a 3.5 jack for audio in to your radio? - all of it cheaper btw) rather than paying for that car dock.
It won't fit and connect well with a case on the nexus, and so taking off a protective case all the time (defeats the purpose of the case now doesn't it) would drive me nuts.

8/12 Already bought the Home Dock from Dell US

Well as soon as I woke up today I went online to by some streak accessories, but while on the site I could only find the car kit. So I started a chat and they told me that the accessories were only available if you purchased a Streak at the same time. That was bs so I told the girl I bought mine from Dell.Uk ( Ebay ) and then she set me up with a purchase window. $76 later though I am feeling some buyer's remorse. I'm trying to rationalize by telling myself I will keep this phone until Froyo at least and that giving away my iPhone4 was worth it all. <sigh> So far it has been good I guess.......

Thats funny, I did the same thing!!! I had to give my wife the iPhone 4 so I could get the Streak. I pre-ordered mine as soon as I woke up!!! I was a little upset that I had to spend an additional $100 to get the home and car docks, you would think they could throw one of them in for the $300 price tag... Oh well, I cant wait until tuesday! Hopefully it will be worth every penny of the $450 I paid

Aha good thinking now every time she calls you the phone will lose signal and cut out and you won't have to talk to her...........very clever
if yours is a uk streak you can download 2.1 now? releasted today in the uk... check the other thread for the link!
I did not purchase a Streak yesterday but did indeed purchase the car docking kit and the home docking stations. Considering from the home docking station you will have hdmi out, it is well worth it
But yes a complete ripoff for just a piece of plastic. The car docking kit was a decent price

I still to this day do not know which version of the phone I have. I know it is a US version unlocked, but beta or what I do not know. Anyway, I have updated to 2.1 and I had a few problems. The best one is now my usb cable will not work....so....my streak is dead waiting for a charge on the dock that should arrive IN 5 DAYS!

The home AV dock is a quality piece of kit, way better build quality than the ones I've bought from SE & HTC in the past. Don't knock it til you've seen one! Having said that the price is still shocking
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
I've had the home dock for about a week now and I am very happy with it. It is a quality piece of equipment. I never have to fumble getting it in there like with the regular charger. Slides right in every time! Sits perfect height next to my monitor. I love it and have almost entirely forgotten that I paid over $70 for it.
With the PDMI connector, I find it hard to connect the USB cable. I have read the reason for the PDMI, and perhaps the hard fit is to help stabalize multiple sized devices on one port.
I read that the Slacker G2 radio uses a similar/same connector and has a dock of sorts(mini usb charging and line-out) for around $30. No HDMI, but for charging on my desk, it would be nice.
Anyone know whether it will be compatible?

It's pricey, yes. But it's solid, looks very nice, it's not as annoying as plugging the cable every time, and it does not require powered-on PC to charge, or replugging to wall socket.

[Q] Wired Headset?

Do any of you have a decent wired headset? The one I had for my old phone won't plug all the way into the jack. My husband tried a few at Radio Shack and all had the same problem.

Yes, Jabra makes ones called the RHYTHM which not only allows you to use it for voice calling, but stereo listening to music. The retail price for one in corporate Sprint retail stores is $39.99 plus applicable tax. I have a set and absolutely love the Jabra RHYTHM for not only the clarity, but the comfort as well Hest88.
