recently i bought a 3 in 1 Adapter for my HTC Diamond and when i plug in the adapter into the mini USB of my Diamond i cannot hear the phone or the dialpad sound anymore. I still can listen radio and also set the equalizer but the phone sound to the external speaker is switched off .
is there any way to keep the phone sound ringing through the speaker while the adapter is connected, maybe by changing the registry or something else? Anyone here who have the same problem? Thank you for your help

Hi All,
I'm wanting to use my Diamond in the car to replace both my old iPod and sat-nav, while still having phone functions available. There are a few things I'm not happy with, so I thought I see what other people are doing.
I have a car head unit with a direct 3.5mm line-in, which used to have the iPod on the end. The Diamond works fine plugged into this through an ebay 3.5mm\USB adaptor.
If I plug the 12v>USB charger in, I get a whine over the audio - not a big problem, it's just a ground-loop, so I'll stick an isolating transformer in-line.
The main problem I have is switching between the internal speaker and the external output. If I want to have the radio on, rather than MP3, I have to unplug the adaptor, and plug the charging cable in direct, so that I can keep the battery charged - not ideal. This way I can hear the TomTom voices through the internal speaker, but it seems wrong to have to swap leads this way.
The other main problem is if I have MP3 and TomTom all through the stereo, and I get a call, I can hear the call over the stereo, but can't speak, as the Diamond is expecting an external microphone.
I guess what I need is a utility to force only the internal microphone to be used, and to allow me to force the internal speaker when I want to use the radio. It there such a thing?
I think one of these car holders has an option to plug in charger and usb-3.5mm jack adapter at the same time....

If i had the skills i'd try to figure out a hack to pause/mute the mp3 and mute satnav when in a call... but I don't.
That's not the problem - I can plug in the charger and 3.5mm audio at the some time, but that redirects all the audio to the car stereo, and disconnects the mic. Removing the adaptor and plugging in just the charger enables the microphone, but all my MP3s then are played through the internal speaker.
What I need is a utility to force the internal microphone to be used _all_ the time, and let me choose when to use the internal speaker when a headset is detected.
I don't suppose anyone knows how the Diamond recognises a headset? Is there a resistor link across a couple of the pins in the 11pin connnector? I'm just thinking I could make up a cable with a switch to break that contact, and 'virtually' disconnect the headset when I want the radio, or need the microphone active during a call.
You could try this program. It seems to be a virtual switch between the earpiece and external speaker. I use it a a solution for skype and other voip programs that only work through the external speaker, but the works the other way as well.
headset instaled but need phone mic allways enable

I have the same issue of kaisee.
I use the diamond as mp3 player in my car stereo (aux-in) and i need the mic allways available to use the phone without disconect the usb or audio plug.
In my old magician this worked just fine becouse the mic was allways available.
Is the .exe posted by dctech the answer(thanks man) ? has anybody tested ? is it reliable or there is another solution?
Thanks
You need a proper bluetooth car kit to allow this. Parrot ones are very good. If you want to listen to music as well as phone calls and sat nav i would suggest that you get one with both handset and A2DP bluetooth profiles. There is a workaround app you can use to get music through a car kit with just a handset or headset profile but the quality is mono and very poor
What headphones do you guys use with your Treo 750?
At first, I just bought a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter and used any set of headphones but then became to cumbersome having to always unplug it to answer phone calls (especially in the cold).
So then I bought the Body Glove headphones with the 2.5mm jack but found out that only the right headphone works because the other signal is used for the mic! BUMMER!!!
So now, I'm to looking for another set of headphones that will work on the Treo 750. I want both right and left headphones to work and also have a working mic on it!
I might just get a bluetooth stereo headset and never have to worry about anything! But I just wanted to know what everyone else was using...
Thanks!
i bought a headset that had a 2.5 - 3.5 mm adapter and on the adapter itself was a button for switching b/w phone calls.
the other end was basically a jack for using any standard headphnes. so im some some sick in-ear ones taht have amazing bass (most of the regular phone headsets have sh!tty bass)
i would go w/ bluetooth but i dont know how much of a drain on battery they'd be. plus $$$.

I use an adapter from 2.5 to 3.5 and use a Creative headphones in order to listen music, sound is very good, but have no microphone, I'm thinking to buy a 2.5 headphone w/ mic, in my opinion a good brand should be the correct option, maybe somebody could tell us their experience.
hi all !!!
i connected my mda IV to sony car audio using adapter cable (3,5 mm jack) sound is great (music,films ,navi) but when i try to make a call nobody can hear me because cable is connected and internal mic is switched off !!!
Do you know the way how to force internal mic working while cable is connected? ( i know i can buy bluetooth car radio but i am curious if it is possible to turn on that mic) THX
I'm looking for the same solution on my diamond. Anyone has a solution?
I don't know the solution, but there is a workaround.
If you download bluepower, this will activate bluetooth when your phone is charging. Then you can use a bluetooth headset to make and receive calls. This seems to take priority over the connection with the in car audio.....
Hope this helps.
Dear developers, please Help!
Diamond doesn't recognize plugged in earphones. Only speaker works. radio FM app doesn't open aswel. Active sync works, earphones are new.
Any Ideas?
Hi, I had the same problem. It was that the headphones were actually for motorola. HTC changed something in the usb so that the phone detected the headset. There was a thread somewhere about this and how to modify the usb if you can do it
Thanks! But the headphones are original HTC. besides I can hear through them that some connections and electrical impulses happens, so the USB isn't dead, bet in the same time headphones are not working.. Who could help me ... ?
Hi there. I hope someone will help me...Basically I need dictaphone for interviews so I bought "Olympus ME-52W Noise Canceling Microphone" and I tryied to use it with my htc hd 2. Phone is showing connected headphones but mic is not working. So my question is can I use external mic with my phone or is it related with software? If someone know the answere pls help me!!!!!!! btw I use Resco audio recorder
The problem is because the connector on the mic is probably the same as a mono headphone plug. The phone thinks that you have headphones plugged in. The phone has a socket that accepts 4 pole jack plugs. That is it requires a special plug that has contacts for both left and right audio as well as for the mic.
If you really want to use the mic I would go to somewhere like radio shack or mapplins and buy a 3.5 mm 4 pole jack plug and a couple of sockets. You could then wire up your own adapter to let you use the mic and also a pair of headphones or speakers at the same time. The pin out for the plug should be easy to find on the net and so long as you can solder I wouldn't see any problems.
Other than that plugging the mic directly into the phone will defiantly not work.
shut up stupid douche
