I was looking around the phone and can't find any jack to plug any audio headphone. do i need a special wires headphone for the tilt?
There was a usb-headphone supplied with my Kaiser (audio headphones with a small usb-jack).
You can buy an extra adapter that allows 2.5mm audio jacks, like this one: picture.
It may be easier to get some Bluetooth Headphones...

Ok, the xda as a 4 pin jack, correct?
It has the ground, the in, and the out.
So, can we amplify the signal from the out to a speaker?
And can we switch a microphone at the in pin?
Thats just an ideia!
Thanks... Ricardo Gomes
i believe that making a converter which takes 1 stereo jack for sound out
and 1 mono jack for sound in is easy to do
if you cant find connectors you can always canabilize a working headset
and cut it's wires and solder them to a female stereo mini jack and a mono minijack

yes, I know, but how can i amplify the sound for the speaker?
If you want an external speaker for use in your car, which amplifies the sound from your XDA, you could consider to buy one of these:

Of course, it would not give you the satisfaction of making something on your own, and it can't be used other places than in your car.
you could use a car tape deck and just solver the wires from the pda on the place where the tape connects to it's amp it's all AUX signals
i have also seen a tape looking device with a minijack wire out of it if you convert the mini jack to the pda's strange jack it would also work

it should work with other devices then the sonic blue rio but there are also others who makes them
Hi guys,
Wonder if one can just buy one of those car cassette adapters and a 3.5 to 2.5 mm pin adapter to use the car stereo system as an amplifier and play mp3 music?
Cheers

Yes, but I dont have cassete in my car, I have a radio with frontCD. What I want is just a system that conects to the jack on the xda to speak into a micro and listen in a speaker. I dont need to plug it to the sound car system.
Being a deaf old git (not totally but my hearing is not as good as I would like), I want to add a pair of apmlified speakers to the PDA so I can hear the voices in my Tom Tom on the Apline clearer since the socket is a 2.5 stero type plug does anyone know which is which on the connections please?

I presume your referring to the Garmin 2.5mm to 3.5mm Jack Adaptor?
nice but not what I was really after
I have found a small set of speakers with a 3.5 jack on the end all that concerns me is the standard headset that comes with the IIi is headset and mic I presumed that a common return (usually the last outer connection and I imagine one of the terminals is for sound and one for mic if so it means only mono sound which is different to what I have been lead to believe just need to know which is the sound out connections on the plug so I can buy a 2.5 plug and wire them up.
The other thing I suppose is I could get a bluetooth headset if the sound from the Tom Tom comes over that but that is a unknown also
i was not talking about the post i made in that thread but more about the DIY stuff people were doing
more about the connector wiring here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Connectors
that would have been exactly what I wanted only thing it wasn't for the Apline unfortunately
Audio connections on himilaya and alpine are identical.
then one of us is wrong as the connections shown are on a FOUR pin connector my Alpine has a working THREE pin connector
not sure about alpine but i had no probs using my old wallaby headset and cradle on alpines sibling called himalaya
Well I seem to be a blind old git because I just noticed there is a inset on the plug and it is a four connection job sorry guys I only recently got given this thing and a quick glace it looks like three connections but one is inset behind the shield
The 2.5mm connector on BOTH Alpine & Himalaya can accomodate either a stereo or a 4-pin 2.5mm connector.
If the PDA detects a 4-pin plug inserted, it assumes the standard wired earphones and mic are connected, and bypasses the internal mic and routes stereo audio to the earphones.
When a normally-wired 2.5mm stereo plug (or adapter to 3.5mm socket) is connected to the PDA, it just outputs stereo audio.
I use a small 2.5mm stereo plug to 3.5mm socket adapter (having shaved away some plastic to enable it to fit, the socket is inset slightly) - to connect up a standard set of ipod-type speakers to the PDA, and it works a treat.
In short, either obtain a small adaptor to standard 3.5mm socket adaptor or if you get a 2.5mm stereo plug that fits nicely (Maplins, Radio Spares etc) and you want to solder it up yourself, it follows the same wiring cnventions as it's bigger 3.5mm brother, so a wiring diagram is just a google away.

I already have a 2.5mm -> 3.5mm stereo adapter to connect my Mogul to my car stereo.
I want a 2.5mm (M) -> Splits two ways:
a) 3.5mm (F) stereo
b) 3.5mm (F) mic
If there isn't one commercially available, I should be able to make it. Any idea what the proper pinout is? And how do we get all signals down 3 wires? (Left+Right+Mic+Gnd+control button)
Any update on finding out how to conect a external speaker and mic to the 6800? I would like to have this type of setup in my car.

You can do a direct splice of the cables coming out if you want, but that requires a little bit on knowledge and a little bit of testing. Basically, you'd take the stock headset and cut off the earbuds and mic. You'd then splice the headphone fead and the mic feed into other lines that would run to your external speaker and mic. Other than that, I don't know of any attachments that do it. You could swing by radio shack and ask them.
I am also interested in doing this. My car has an aux input to the stereo and I would like to install some kind of mic setup so I can use it as a handsfree device. Bluetooth is way too unpredictable so I plan on doing it wired.
You will need a 4-conductor 2.5mm plug along with the Y-cable that came with the phone that has usb and 2.5mm jack.
anyone looking for this setup.. i have a cable i bought off ebay that has a miniusb,which allows you to have a charger plugged in, built in microphone and answer button, and a 3.5mm headphone jack, it works great in the car for hands free (car deck has aux in) , and also works great with my cigarette lighter fm transmitter. anyone looking for this , just type in m
I think i found a solution. I just bought an adapter like this one:

Hello everybody,
I own the bose on-ear, and I love them.
http://www.bose.co.uk/GB/en/home-an...bose-audio-headphones/bose-on-ear-headphones/
I would like to use them with my htc hd2 while calling.
Since the audio cable from the device to the headphones is removable, is it possible to have a 3.5mm female/male cable with a mic and audio controls in it?
I mean something like this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/StarTech-co...1_1?ie=UTF8&s=computers&qid=1288395589&sr=8-1
with mic and controls attached
thx

anyone?
EDIT:
found also on bose.co.uk.. but £40 for a cable! pure madness!!

I've done a slightly different take on this, I snipped the lead between the control module and the headphones and soldered a inline 3.5mm jack socket. This enables me to plug my Sennheiser HD-25 headphones in without having to damage the lead and in fact plug any standard set of headphones in whilst keeping the full functionality of the remote module...

Is there anyone else here who uses a BOSE in-ear headphones?
I've got one and I read a few reviews AFTER I bought it that it's not loud enough. I'm not sure if this is something to do with the phone or the product is just like this.
I've had Klipsch Speakers for my PC before but unsure if their earphones are also very good compared to BOSE.
Usb-C to 3.5mm Audio Jack
Hi! anyone have an adapter to listen music by this cable?
if someone is using one please have us a review
I want to know if the quality of the music is better than 3.5mm jack audio output.
what about .flac audio format? they sound better with this adapter ?
I test audio with Sony.
* MDR-XB500
* MDR-XB90EX
do u mean, 3.5mm to USB-C b/c if u connect a usb c to headphone jack, the quality will not improve, maybe 3.5mm to usb-c, but i don't think the OP3 supports usb audio, i had tried to get a DAC for my oneplus one and usb instead of the 3.5mm jack but it was mono so it did not sounds good and no separation, i would like to find something better too b/c i put a lot into my car audio but i don't listen CDs, i may go with an Android Auto Headunit b/c those should support usb c audio without mono, currently i am using a HTC One M8 with Viper and Dolby Atmos and it sounds pretty good
u may not be able to tell much but here is a video i made to test SQ, this is a flac file

I Saw this v?*deo,
and he use LeEco earphones, and works ....
with a port converter it won't sound any better because you're still getting an analog signal from the phone's dac just being fed out the usb-c port rather than the headphone port. Now if you have some digital usb headphones with their own DAC pulling a digital signal from the port then you could have better sound but only because the headphones' dac is likely more suited to that exact pair of headphones though the OP3's DAC is pretty decent imo compared to other phones I've had.
