How can I listen to music and applications from my incredible in my car? Is there a cord that plugs into my headphone jack I can plug into my car?

You need an audio external in... I had one installed at a car audio shop

I've looking at a few head units to replace my existing stereo. I tried a few units with built in bluetooth at the local big box store.
I set up my phone to play both bluetooth audio and attempted to make a phone call, but the 'helpful' store employee asked me to put my phone away (evidently they're afraid I was amazoning the price). I told the guy I was pairing the bluetooth, but he didn't care. Too bad, because making a phone call would've sealed my sale. I guess I'll amazon it.
I was deciding between a Kenwood & Sony... sorry I didn't get a chance to record the model numbers, but they were ~$175.
They can't exactly forbit you from using your phone you know...that's not legal methinks

Actually, they can, inside their store. It's private property and they can ask you to either turn off your phone or leave. If you refuse to turn it off, they can tell you to leave. If you refuse to leave, you're legally trespassing and they can have you arrested.
In any case, they clearly didn't want your money.

Yeah but they can't physically touch you without getting sued. I have two sales / retail jobs.
I have a Kenwood in my car with BT. It auto connects to my Incredible but only if I have the "phone" option under advanced BT settings set to connect. If I just have media set to connect it wont auto connect. But if you use the hands free BT then you'll be fine. It'll auto connect to both phone and media audio.

Well sure, but where did he say they touched him?
The guy didn't threaten me, he just kind of shrugged and pointed towards the spy camera. I ended up with a Clarion _Z500 (I forget the first letter) for $50 off since it was missing the remote. I didn't need the remote since I sit 2' away. Thankfully everything can be accessed via the panel.
It's nice (though not as good as the one in my acura). Via bluetooth it pauses music, answers calls, accesses my phone book and makes a decent call with the included mic.

Thats good. If you use. PowerAmp as your music player you can start music and skip songs with BT controls. And IMO its the best music player out, period.

Yeah, but the problem with FM transmitters in my experience is that if you drive between counties you usually have to change stations and the sound quality is meh.
It also doesn't work well anywhere that FM radio signals have trouble getting to.

OK..I bought this 3.5 mm jack from Seidio one end has the 3.5mm jack other end has the mini usb port that fits into the phone (kaiser)
when I got the adaptor in the mail I noticed the in the middle of the jack is a microphone with a call and end button.....
my radio in my truck has a mp3 input for such things as Ipod or anything that has a output going in to a input....anyway hooked it up (which only took 5 seconds) and BAM.....all of sudden got a phone call .....I heard my dad loud and clear through every speaker in the car ....the little microphone was so clear ....I asked my dad if he could tell I was talking to him through this little mic...he thought I was on my phone....it's so cool hearing your conversation through every speaker in my truck .....and "no bluetooth car kit needed"!!!!!
Peace

I have Interest how much do you want incl shipping to SC

I'd love try it as my MB has a mp3 jack nd it would simplify things and help me preserve the tilt's battery by not hving the BT radio on!

What about getting the sound (driving instructions) in your speakers while using naviagtion SW like TomTom/MioMap/iGO? Can You hear that?
Will this work at same time as You play MP3 on your device?
well, i listen to my mp3's and use selectradio to stream sirius and when i receive a call, it puts the music on hold, i push the button to take the call and then resumes the music when i'm done with the call. as for the nav. stuff, i haven't tried, but i'll give it a shot tomorrow if i remember...

Thanx for Your efford, Please tell me which Nav SW Your are using as well.
I'm currently using Parrot MK6000 car-kit and it's NOT performing as I would like even if it has A2DP support. Meaning due to slow performance of the BT car-kit I'll miss the first spoken words of the driving directions if I use TT navigation SW. So instead of "In 300 meters turn right" I'll get "...urn right" if I'm lucky. I can't change the way to get the sound in the internal speaker of my device. I can just turn off/on sound in TT.
With MioMap/iGO I'll not get the driving directions via BT but via the interal speaker of the device until I start using the Media player. Strange.
Compability with HTC TyTN II according to Parrot:

I can't seem to find a program which will route ALL audio to my mono bt earpiece. If there is such an app pls pst. If not, I'd like to help in the dev of such an app. Basicly, whenever the phone sees any audio bt device it will start routing all audio to that device. And it should have a built in audio mixer to control the different programs' volume levels separately.
Let me know what you think

As a bike commuter this feature would be great. I typically listen to streams and podcasts where fidelity is not priority one. I use a cheap pair of corded headphones where I chop one ear bud off so that I can keep my left ear, traffic side, open. It would be sweet to have the ability to make/take calls on my commute and listen to audio as well. I know that there are BT earpieces that are a2dp, but should I really have to drop another 40 clams to get one, hells no this is android we get what we want right? That said I would develop a prog to do this but it will take me 6 mos as I have no background. So, to kind devs, myself and several others that I have seen scouring for this sol'n would gladly help test and pay for this functionality.
I have been looking also. Have not found anything to even mention. I used to have it on my old MinMo phone, but that's the ONLY damn thing I miss about it. Anyone have a recomendation.
theres a bunch of cheap A2DP headsets at dealextreme.com just do a search for a2dp
But I do mean cheap dont expect miracles for sound quality or battery life . . . but did I mention cheap?
We're not trying to solve our problems by purchasing MORE hardware, we're trying to make do with what we have and find new uses for old stuff. We want to send ALL the audio from the device to a mono NON a2dp earpiece. It can't honestly be that hard, Please devs. And don't forget your donate buttons.

This is not working for me, and I have 3.0. Doubt that 4.0 is working on the G1.
Hello!
Sorry to up this "old" topic, but I'm a biker too and i have a scala rider Q2 bluetooth device. This device does not support the bluetooth A2AP x-(
The phone calls trough bluetooth is ok but no music or GPS....
I found a solution : Bluetooth Audio Widget (i could not post the link but you can find it on the android market)
This Widget/application route all the sounds from your device to the bluethoot headphones!
@++
I have been using "Super BT Mono Pro" on my T-Mobile G2. It is working better than a few of the other apps that I have tried. It is also available on the Market.
http://www.androidzoom.com/android_developer/sinwidget_itzo.html
How do you like that Q2? Does it work well on FM, or is its radio coverage spotty like the other units? I still think they have awesome audio when you are talking to someone. I gave up the Scala Rider FM for a Parrot SK4000.
Hello!
I am looking for something that does not seem to exist. I registered here in hopes that the brilliant minds of XDA might be able to offer me a solution.
I want Bluetooth hands-free calling on my desktop PC.
Let me explain: I work in my garage. I use my garage PC as my only music source. I use it for email and web stuff too, of course, but its main job is providing a streaming source for music from the server in my house.
When I am working and my phone rings, I cannot hear my phone. Tablesaws and routers and sanders are noisy, and the music is blasting.
What I want is the same thing my $200 car stereo does: mute or pause the music and announce the caller ID through my speakers. When I am done with the call, resume the music.
Seems simple, doesn't it? I have been googling this for quite some time. No answers anywhere, it seems.
If/when I push the button to answer, I want to use a microphone and my speakers to talk on the phone...simple as that. Yes, I know, there are a hundred ways of doing this other than my PC (stream to tablet, BT to tab, tablet to stereo, etc.) but nothing is going to live very long in all this sawdust (including my PC, but I don't care) so the goal is to have to buy nothing but a BT dongle and some software.
So...since I work on stereo stuff for a living, the stuff you guys do is a complete mystery to me, but I know what I want.
Does anyone know of an app that does this? If not, it seems to me that this would be a fairly marketable thing, does anyone have an interest in developing this?
Thanks for looking, and hope you have some brilliant answers for my dilemma.
Thanks!
Luke Fisher
well if you plug your phone into the speakers and play music of it like Pandora or even download your own music. Then when you get a call the music will stop and your ring-tone will play through the speakers till you pick up the call or miss the call.

Yes this is true, there are no cross platforms apps that really do what you want. This will happen probably in the next years it has to do with getting the platforms to work together.
I looked into this a couple of months ago, I did find a work around if you want to operate in linux........ then you can get the phone and computer to work together but then you are doing your own custom programming...... and you just want an app sounds like you do not want to be the programmer
Maybe someone else knows more and chime in............

Linux? Isn't that Charlie Browns best friend? Has a sister named Lucy, right?
Guys, my phone is a POS, ain't gonna go there at all. Samsung Instinct S30, until I find what I need a phone to do I am not giving up any money at all.
I know I can connect a cell phone to a PC with nothing but a simple BT dongle, but getting it to pause the music is the tough part.
Maybe I will just get another JVC KD-R900 and use it for shop tunes. I could run the shop stereo from it, just use the AUX in on the JVC from the PC.
Oddly enough, I listen to full albums, often several from the same artist, so I have no use for broadcast radio, nor sattelite or internet radio, just full CDs on my hard drive.
Thanks for the input so far, guys!

Hmm... I have just done something similar with my phone.
Here's the setup:
You'll need:
1. A hi-fi system
2. An Android phone (any would do, but some of the apps in Andriod is critical)
3. 16-32gb sd-card
4. Bluetooth dongle for answering phones
Plug your phone into the hifi using the stereo sound jack, and plug your phone into the charger. Play music straight from the phone, and when it rings, you can set certain music apps to mute the music while letting the ringtone through. I'm quite sure that the default music app from el Goog, does that well.
Hi guys, I'm looking to upgrade the stereo head unit in my car and looking for one that best interfaces with my note in terms of both hands free calls and music streaming/control.
Does anyone have any suggestions for decent head units?
Which connection gives the best control Aux, Bluetooth or USB? (must be between BT and USB).
Would I get better control/dispaly from a SD card in the head?
Is there any head unit that will allow me to brows my music on the phone by artist/album etc, or am I stuck with folder browsing?
Will the car head unit display any details of the music being played, artist, track etc. or even album art?
I use player pro on the note for my music at the moment.
My requirements...
Blue-tooth Hands free calling and music streaming.
Remote Stalk Adapter available.
Front Aux Port.
Variable colour display if possible.
USB
SD Slot as a bonus.
1U preferable but can fit 2U if needs be.
Looking to spend up to around £300 ish.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

How is the hunt?
I am using my note in the default head unit that came along with car (Ford Figo)
If you want to control the music from headunit, it better be bluetooth and not the Aux or USB.
If you use Aux, common sense says no control at all.
If you use USB, you can control the songs, but will not be able to answer or make calls with the car head unit.
Hence it is preferred only to use BT, that way the songs will get paused while you answer your calls and all the display is shared with your car audio headunit.
Hope this info helps.

Hunt ongoing but hoping to get a scent today.
Many thanks for the info,I wasn't aware of the limitations you describe. That's good to know.
For information I settled on the Kenwood KDC-BT92SD....
http://www.kenwood-electronics.co.uk/products/car/cd_receivers/cd/KDC-BT92SD/
The Pioneer looked as though it would offer a bit more and better integration with android but personaly I prefer the looks of the Kenwood. I had a play with and settled for the Kenwood as it looks good and sounds great. It plays the music on my Notes sd card no problem. And, if you install their music control app it creates a file/database on the sd card so you can browse by Title, Artist, Album, Playlist etc.
The software is realy a music player app which scans your music and created the file for browsing on your Kenwood stereo. It's not a bad effort but a bit slow and lacks some features such as an equaliser. You can set it to play through your favourite player software though so may be worth a mess with.
All in all so far very happy

Really? I had a look through the app list and it was completely dominated by iOS apps. They have half a dozen integrated navigation apps for iOS, zero for android. Same with the music mixers etc. All for iOS. There's only the basic stuff offered for android phones.
Looks a poor, 2nd rate effort wrt android from Pioneer IMO.
As long as it makes the buyer happy ...
For me i only want to listen songs from my mobile.. I switch on the native player from my mobile and use the equalizers on mobile...
Only the output is pushed to the headunit..
Fortunately since it has BT i can jump between songs from the headunit without touching the phone...

I agree it's not perefect but it'#s about the best there is for Android at the moment. At least it's a step in the right direction.
I agree with Coolkriss though, I only want handsfree and to be able to play my music from my phone. I have found the Kenwood does it pretty well both from the USB source and via BT.
My only quibble at the moment is that I can't find a way to stop it automatically switching to USB source when I plug the phone in. I often just want to charge it, connect to handsfree and carry on listening to the radio but it switches to USB as soon as I plug it in.

I would suggest charging via the 12 v USB charger. That way the head unit only does the BT job.
If you still wish to plug it to head unit, try disabling or enabling the USB debug option under settings--> developer

You can go ahead and check out my review summary thread (link in my sig) to pick out bt headphones/earphones and keyboard links. There is also a thread about Pebble smart watch which supposed to be an awesome bt accessory to bring out remote notification display from N2 in your pocket to your wrist. Plus, someone mentioned MOGA Pro in another thread which is a really cool bt game controller. Then, you also have Jawbone Jambox to bring sound of N2 externally through bt connection. It could have been mentioned in the forum, but I don't remember when/where. At least those I mentioned are the most essential bt accessories.
My best bluetooth accessory is my Ford Edge.

do you have that issue with SYNC where when you leave the car and come back, you have to go back to bluetooth audio because it doesnt stay on bluetooth by default but goes to line in instead?

No, the bluetooth always connects when I come back to the car. I never see line in unless I turn the phone's bluetooth off.
For the most part it starts playing also. Unfortunately, when it starts playing it always starts playing BeyondPod podcasting app. Even if I was playing Pandora when I got out of the car it starts up BeyondPod when I get back in the car. I'm not sure why this happens. I'd like it to continue playing using the app that was running when I got out of the car.
It's not terribly annoying, though. I have an NFC tag in my car that will start Pandora. I just tap that and BeyondPod yields to Pandora.
I've got the Motorola motoactv gps watch. Best watch out there and works great with the N2.

They put out an update a while back, (before i bought my car, so i didnt have the option) that took that away. Any SYNC system that is up to date brings you back to line in EVERY time you turn off the car. imagine that for a second. The reason they did that, was because some people complained that they would get into their car and music would just start playing, so instead of spending time to recode it system to let you choose a default, they just force line in on you. and nothing is being done to change this.
So, to sum up, if you ever get the urge to update the system, dont.

Thanks for the heads up. Mine is a 2009 Edge and I did an update back in 2009 but haven't done once since. I guess if it ain't broke, don't fix it, eh?

I backed that just the other day. My car has bluetooth, but only streams calls and not audio. Planning on plugging it in to my AUX port to stream audio. The female-female adapter is pretty nifty.
I got an Avantree Roxa http://www.avantree.com/Product-Blu...-roxa-aptx-decoding-technology-added_677.html
Great BT receiver, Bluetooth 4, aptX, USB charging socket 1A, mulipoint 8 devices, great sound quality due to aptX
best a2dp with noise cancellation over the ear
as the title says, I'm looking to improve my audio experience via bt over the ear. I has to be a2dp (streaming audio) and good noise cancellation. My current Moto Elite Silver is great but noise cancellation is so-so, some people hear some whistle at times. I spend a lot of time driving and need to use bt over the ear.
What are you experiences/suggestions/advise? Appreciate...
I have a jawbone era and I'm impressed. I owned the moto Sliver for a yeat amd while it was way more comfortable, it didn't offer that dio quality that the jawbone has. I initially bought Bose new bt headset but I wasn't impressed at all, except that it was comfortable.
I do have some problems with my jawbone that are all user error (i think), but once I get the sorted I'll be happy.
