Hey guys, does anyone know where I could get a good car kit for mu Legend. I'm looking for a device that uses the radio as an FM transmitter (so that I can stream the music on my SD card to one of the frequencies on the radio).
I've searched online but cant seem to find any that are compatible with the Legend.
jabra cruiser bluetooth carkit maybe
Interesting, I never thought of using a Speakerphone as a transmitter.
From doing a bit of reserch the Motorola Motorokr T505 looks to be the better option - much cheaper as well.

Thanks!
that is easy to make fm transmitter, just need simple electronic parts
so you can creat it by your self
For me I just have auto answer on speaker and have the Legend where the visor is right above my head, I don't even need a proper bluetooth dock or anything except for my motorbike where I use a helmet headset.

Hi,
I was thinking that if FM transmitter exist for HTC diamond or a more general one for all mobiles??
I know that Soney Ericsson has something like that where you can transmit to FM Radio while playing your music on your mobile phone!!
It would be great, having a live radio on the net, using my HTC mobile 3G network and transmit the audio to FM radio while driving
Any ideas how to do that? Would be great to have something like that and a more general device which can be used with most manufactures would even be better!!
Motorola T505. Connects via bluetooth to your Diamond and then has a digital FM transmitter to divert the audio to your FM radio. Also gives you hands free for your car and supports A2DP stereo over bluetooth. If you use turn by turn GPS on your Diamond you can hear the commands on the T505 or on your car stereo. Highly recommended.
James
thanks
thanks james,
Just ordered one
Is there any cheaper solution?
not bad
Well, I found one for around £49 which is okay!
Hope its worth the money, and sound/voice over FM is clear and in good quality
lets see, otherwise, will just return it back.
been using the belkin tunecaster II since i had my old himalaya / xda2
works fine
Is there any apps that can used to connect to the radio on your vehicle and play the music from your phone on your radio. FM transmitter basically.
No
You would need a piece of hardware, not just software to do this.
You could get a headphone adapter and an FM Transmitter from an electronics store, just like you would with an iPod or whatever though.
If you could control the GSM radio, you could certainly get a beat going...
Not exactly what I would call music though.
If you have cupcake, you can use A2DP bluetooth. I just bought this on eBay.
SCOSCHE BLUELIFE UBRH WIRELESS BT HANDSFREE CAR KIT~NIB
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=110382056992
I'm going to install it in my car right now.
I am the happy owner of a HTC Topaz.
I ride a motorbike, and have recently bought a bluetooth crash helmet with built in speakers / mic which works a treat for answering and making calls and also for listening to TomTom navigation instructions from my HTC Topaz.
However, I have yet found a solution to allow me to listen to the built in radio via bluetooth. Because HTC requires the plug-in headset to act as an antena the radio doesnt work without it.
However when I plug in the headset, i get instant radio reception but then the sound is routed to the plug-in headset , rather thean the bluetooth speakers.
My logic tells me that there must be some way to use the plug in headset as ONLY an antena allowing the sound to be routed by deafault to the bluetooth headset. Surely this is software driven?
I am not a software Guru, but keen to learn and frustrated that there doesnt seem to be a yet obvious solution to this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi!
is anyone successfully using a Jabra Cruiser with the HD2? Looks a nice piece of kit, but after all the comments on how flawed the BT stack is on our beloved, I would like to know if music can be successfully played through BT and the FM transmitter before spending £70 for it...

I had the forerunner of the cruiser, the Jabra SP700. The operation and the telephone related functions were formidable. Bluetooth worked perfectly with this model, audio streaming (A2DP) included. The only problem I had with the SP700 was the FM transmission. It worked but it was way to noisy for me (I'm an audiophile).
I think you have to try it out yourself. It works, yes, but if it works well under the particular condition in which you gonna use it*, and if it sounds well according to your taste is something you have to decide while using it.
* For FM transmission to work in your car it is very important that the waves of the Jabra unit can reach your antenna outside the car well enough.
I'm looking for the latest/best Bluetooth kit that will allow me to stream Pandora and phone calls through my car speakers. I like the idea of the Motorola T505, but can't tell if there is something newer/better out there. I would prefer suggestions from people who know first hand about the pros and cons.
Thank you!
Bluetooth Advice....
I actually just posted this article over at my website....

There's some good advice there.
BTW, the Jabra headset I was initially using was this one:

For a little more money you could have the fully integrated stereo I feature in the article.
I will check it out, thank you!
I didn't see anything about sending or receiving phone calls. Can you?
I've been using the Motorola T505 for a while and I love it, especially the amazing battery life! I found the same Sony Stereo on Amazon for about $149.
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MEX-BT3800U-Receiver-Player-Bluetooth/dp/B0032FOJPM
This is what the description says about recieving calls:
Bluetooth Functionality
The MEX-BT3800U features Bluetooth hands-free with an integrated microphone (or through an external microphone), as well as audio streaming functionality using your compatible Bluetooth music device.

I believe this means it should handle calls just as well as streaming Music from your device.
The only thing that gets me about the T505 is when traveling, even with the auto-station finder, since it is an FM transmitter it can take a while to find a decent station to listen to your music. Around my own area I've already found the best stations and have them set as presets though so not a problem however it would be nice to get CD sound quality through the speakers instead of FM sound.
Yes, the Sony stereo handles calls very well. And as for the FM Transmitter on that T505 I can't say. The reason I went with the Jabta BT3030 before I got the Sony stereo was so I could use the line input instead of an FM transmitter. (I tried something with an FM Transmitter before with poor sound quality).
I wish I had seen that deal on Amazon!
I tried the line-in in my Mustang and the sound was horrible.
Thanks for the helpful information.
It will probably be a few months before I will be able to part with the cash to buy anything, but it'll take me that long to make a decision. lol
I was going to place an order until I realized it wouldn't fit into my Mustang.
Any other suggestions?

Nice setup with the stereo if you have only 1 car and you spend plenty of time in it.
I'm using a Jabra Cruiser speakerphone. Clips to the visor, transmits to the car radio and sounds good. Also it is supposed to announce caller name via access to the Inc's phonebook - Inc is supposed to have PBAP. This doesn't work however with the Jabra Cruiser. It will announce phone numbers only, not names of incoming caller.
