Mono Sound via USB adaptor

All,
Just flashed to Solace v3.1 (which I LOVE, btw). Getting an odd issue, hoping maybe someone else can point me in the right direction.
I have an adapter that plugs into the USB port (originally from my Titan) that allows me to plug in both USB power and a headset. From there, I have an adapter that converts to 3.5mm, and a wire which I then plug into the aux-in of my car stereo.
Previously, this set-up worked flawlessly. After flashing to Solace, however, I only get mono sound (right channel only).
I asked in the Solace thread also, but no one else seems to have this issue (or haven't noticed. Sorry for cross posting!). Hoping that someone might have seen this problem in general before, or have a place I might try looking for a possible solution. I searched the entire registry for things like "balance", "stereo", "mono"...even looked at every single entry for "usb" without finding much in the way of a fix. Missing entry perhaps?
Really appreciate anything anyone can do to help at this point!

Damaged mini usb port?
I had the same problem with my Tilt. Although it only had the stock 6.1 rom (fluff free), I'm guessing the pins on your port are misaligned or broken. You soon may discover that it won't sync with your computer and shortly thereafter will not charge anymore.

Possible to connect a usb or bluetooth mouse to pda?

Is there a possible way to connect a mouse to the pda? I hate when I try to play a online game the screen keeps sliding instead of acting as a mouse. Is there a way how I can use a mouse?
hopefully I'll get as much as answers as I do as views.

I'm interested in that too!

There's something called Teksoft USBInput - I just found it yesterday, but haven't tried it yet.
If you can get the right cable adapters put together, I'd imagine that it would work.

Yes, I agree with bdusmc! I too found USBInput not that long ago and have installed the software on my PPC. Recently though, I found the part I was looking for on ebay ($1 and free shipping) and ordered it. I assume it will be arriving soon and I anticipate seeing if it works. I'll let you know if it works, okay? I'm really hoping that it works because well, it would be amazing. Sure you have a slide out keyboard but hey, I have a full sized USB keyboard. WHAT NOW!? lol Ultimate friend pwnge will occur I'm sure. However, if I had the new keyboard from FastFingerKeyboards it would make things more practical then fun....

i think it should be possible and awesome

Sorry for the late response but I've been waiting on the replacement part. You see, it did not connect using the first mini USB to USB Female adapter I purchased nor on the second one I received just today. At this point I can not concluded if it is the adapter or another problem. Anyways, you're welcome to try it and let me know if you can get it to work... Maybe BlueInput would work. The sad thing about that is it uses bluetooth which will decrease the battery life rapidly and bluetooth keyboards are more expensive. Oh well!

TV Out - Which ROM & Cable are you using?

Hi guys,
I'm about to get my Captivate next week.
Just wondering which ROM and cables are you using to make this work?
Does it work on the Cognition Froyo ROMs for example?
Would this cable work?

cheers! Looking forward to joining the Captivate Clan soon

For .99c you can give that cable set a try, but I tried the cable that came with my old Nokia N95 and it didn't work...so I ordered the cable on the Samsung site for $19.95 and guess I'll see what happens

This is what I bought. They're $0.39. Any ROM will do.
Cables

I'm using Cognition Beta 9 and using the cables provided from the second generation Zune dock.
ps. I'm also using a bluetooth keyboard and mouse when I enable tv out.
Still no luck with the wiimote.
Edit: If you don't get any video out you may need to switch the yellow and red or yellow and white. Also tv out has to be enabled which is under settings>display.
Sent from my Captivate

I am quite frustrated with my Captivate. I bought two different cables on ebay and both doesn't seem to work no matter which plug I switched around.
Any solutions? Anyone got their Captivate tv out working properly? Which cable did you use and most importantly where did you get it from?

got this for $0.44 and it works flawlessly and yellow is video too!

Can it also be a ROM/Kernel issue? (with some features being incompatible)

get a cable that works its bad enough we have to deal with an out dated connection from the days of vhs giving poor resolution, switching audio for video will make one audio chanel lower volume (depending on the input impedance of the tv audio in) and cause artifacts in the video from not having a video cable.
video cables are 75ohms vs near zero for audio.

Why would you want all that resistance in a cable?
Wouldn't that cause near to nothing to get transmitted?

[Q] video out cable not working on rogers 2.2 ???

hey everyone, so video out worked on rogers 2.1, but now I'm on rogers 2.2, just got a fancy new pico projector and... video out is scrambled...
has anyone tried video out on rogers 2.2?
is my cable shot or is the rom?
thanks

which pico projector? there are tons, plus they make the projector chipset used by other companies, dell pico, samsung pico ect...
2nd did you have the projector with 2.1? sounds like you got it after 2.2 by the way you posted. if so i would try hooking up to a TV with 2.2
2.2 works fine for me hooking up to TV and my cars in dash DVD screen, only trick is my RED cable is video and Yellow is Right audio.
but you are getting a scrambled picture? try pushing pulling on the 1/8" jack, i have heard other people say that they come across some jacks that dont click in place properly, might be getting some auido interferance crossing-over? (just a thought)

the projector isn't at fault, it's just RCA and works with the xbox/ps2, etc. trested that first thing to make sure it wasn't at fault.
what cable are you using?
I've tested the leads with a multimeter and they all seem to be where they should according to the pinout, so it must not be fitting in right, no clue what would have changed.
I think I might need a new cable then if you're on 2.2 with no issues.
can you confirm where you got yours?
thanks

TV Out not functioning

Hey so I got a tv out cable for the captivate from ebay, but nothing happens when i plug it into the tv after enabling the tv out option in the settings ive tried both ntsc and pal and tried 2 different tvs theres just no image nothing.
Anybody know the cause other than a faulty cable?
im running perception 10.2 if it makes a difference

I'm going to say it's a bad cable. The same thing happened to me after ordering one off of Amazon. It's really hit or miss with them. I didn't order another because it's not that important to me, but if you really want that function, I would go for a different cable.
