Hi
Looking to order an Optimus 2x phone tomorrow from GumMobile, their customer service so far has been great and I've not even bought anything off them yet!
Anyhow, I need a holder/charger and was wondering if anyone had found one which will notify the phone it's in the car charger and auto start the sat nav app? I know it can be done but not sure if there's a special charger/mount I need or how it works.
Any help welcome.
Cheers,
Diskbox

Hi everybody,
Well I thought I solved my problem, but the guz who wanted to help me, let me down.
I wanted to make a good handsfree for the xda. I let go from the idea that I could involve my car stereo (no in at the device) so I wanted to make a solution with a seperate loudspeaker and a seperate microfone.
But the guy said to me that he will not take the risk...
What risk?
I myself have no technical abilities at all :-(
Cant solder have no idea about how to solve it. The solutions offered on the market seem to be verry bad and expensive. Bad sound, bad micro etc. I also wanted to involve a GPS mouse in the system.
It is clear to me how it should work, but I cant do it, being such an technical looser. If I would have to solder anything I would have one big bunch of connections, soldered together.
I have money I could pay for it....If I have to.....
Anyone there who thinks he could help me?
Please, I am desperate and lost...
Thanks

maybe that bring some explanation as far as audio ....
cables are concerned, the little descriptive reading show you different audio options you can consider for you in-the-car equipment

Hi Monica,
Thanks a bunch.Tough it was not exactly what I was looking for it helped me further a bit.
I wanted to make a car kit for my car. But as I look deeper in the subject I might go for a headset. Is there any way to get the plugs in europe?
I would like to get one, but ordering it in the US will cost a fortune.
Any idea?
Thanks

WK, i'm currently in the process of building a fully featured car kit for the XDA, I'm waiting on a PCB at the moment, but as soon as it arrives I will be trying to get the project finished.
The solution uses an external mic (not the XDA's) and provides line out via RCA's, and finally a telephone mute signal for incar stereo.
I will post when the project is complete, and if all goes well, I can put together some sort of guide for you guy's if you wish..
Cheers

Hi Neil
I'm in the phase of making experiments with my XDA1 and external car kits.
I already prepared a XDA connector with a 2Mt cable that have all the connector signal:
-Power supply
-Car on wire
-Mic in
-Stereo Out
-RS232 (for my GPS mouse)
-USB (for future use like external HD!)
I'm now tring to find a solution for the "radio muting"
Can you give me infos on where you find the project?
Bye
I am keen also to get more info on that

Hi guys, i have searched the forums and google but couldn't find an answer so forgive me if i overlooked it. My original Hands Free Kit for the kaiser, one day, randomly stopped working. So i bought another HTC original hands free kit. This worked fine, at first. It has suddenly stopped working and there is nothing physically wrong with it. It makes me think that this is either a problem with the phone, or maybe a driver issue?? it works fine both on charge and with active sync. does anybody have any idea what it could be?

I wanted to find out if it's possible to use the Tilt as a Bluetooth GPS adapter. I recently got an iPhone from a friend and am just trying it out but no GPS sucks. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I think this might be what you are looking for

That app looks exactly like what I'm looking for. Will try once I'm back at my computer. Thanks
I Drive BMW 328XI and for some reason when i pair the car with my LG Thrill, i lose the phone signal and the bluetooth disconnects for about 10 seconds then the ATT signal comes back on the phone then about 10 seconds later the phone pairs again for about 10 seconds and then the whole cycle all over again, and it will stay on for hours ..
no luck looking up anything online, i did find few ppl have issues on BMW and Audi cars with bluetooth, but nothing like my case tho!
any ideas or hints other than pair and un-pair the phone and deleting the phone profile from the car .. cuz i did that over 10 times and still no go!
Thank You!

anyone !!! ?? !!!
Sounds like an incompatibility issue between your car and the phone. I've seen issues with some of the phones and vehicles at my dealership (not BMW) that are almost exactly what you are describing. There won't be a fix unless the dealer (BMW) or the phone manufacturer comes up with an update. Hopefully Gingerbread will help you out.
Tried Thriller? I had bt issues with my headset dropping and reconnecting on its own on the stock rom. Haven't had an issue since I flashed Thriller.

thats true .. i looked up everywhere and it said the same thing online, i have to wait most likely for the dealer to issue and update.
i even tried my trill on a rented car last weekend ( Camero RS 2011 ) and it was working fine.
so its the Car now, im sure.

Yea, it kinda sucks. I wish the car manufacturers would be more on top of these things.
My problem with my setup is that the Thrill's AVRCP is still at version 1.0 and only supports basic music streaming. It doesn't even support metadata. My 2 year old Tilt2 supports that. I wonder if custom ROM can fix that. iPhone updated the AVRCP from 1.0 to 1.4 with iOS5
Hi folks, I had a search but didn't find anything conclusive.
Had my Nexus One for a few months now and although it isn't my main phone I am having some issues with the microphone when I do use it.
It seems to sometimes not work and others it does. However, if I put it on loudspeaker it works all the time. From what I have gathered, there are 2 microphones that get used on the one so I could be having an issue with one not working?
Also when it does work, it is very quiet or soft.
Does anyone know if I need a new microphone or if there is a fix I can do without buying a new part. If a new part is needed, does anyone know somewhere on the web where I can buy one?
Thanks,
Fraser
