[Q][Tasker] Bluetooth headphone and FM Radio? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I understand that in order to have the FM Radio working we need to have the headphone plug in because they act as the antenna and as such bluetooth does not work.
My question however is different in nature, If I plug in the jack a cable (headphone cable without the ear part), is it possible to have Tasker replicate/duplicate the output of the earphone jack to a Bluetooth headphone? This way, there would still be a cable to act as an antenna and we could listen to radio without the hassle of cable.
I tried to find if this question was posted elsewhere without any luck.
Thanks for your help.

Does this adapter exist?

I already have a 2.5mm -> 3.5mm stereo adapter to connect my Mogul to my car stereo.
I want a 2.5mm (M) -> Splits two ways:
a) 3.5mm (F) stereo
b) 3.5mm (F) mic
If there isn't one commercially available, I should be able to make it. Any idea what the proper pinout is? And how do we get all signals down 3 wires? (Left+Right+Mic+Gnd+control button)
Any update on finding out how to conect a external speaker and mic to the 6800? I would like to have this type of setup in my car.

You can do a direct splice of the cables coming out if you want, but that requires a little bit on knowledge and a little bit of testing. Basically, you'd take the stock headset and cut off the earbuds and mic. You'd then splice the headphone fead and the mic feed into other lines that would run to your external speaker and mic. Other than that, I don't know of any attachments that do it. You could swing by radio shack and ask them.
I am also interested in doing this. My car has an aux input to the stereo and I would like to install some kind of mic setup so I can use it as a handsfree device. Bluetooth is way too unpredictable so I plan on doing it wired.
You will need a 4-conductor 2.5mm plug along with the Y-cable that came with the phone that has usb and 2.5mm jack.
anyone looking for this setup.. i have a cable i bought off ebay that has a miniusb,which allows you to have a charger plugged in, built in microphone and answer button, and a 3.5mm headphone jack, it works great in the car for hands free (car deck has aux in) , and also works great with my cigarette lighter fm transmitter. anyone looking for this , just type in m
I think i found a solution. I just bought an adapter like this one:

FM radio without connecting headphones

Hello, my question is whether you can listen to FM radio without plugging headphones and plugged a cable-miniUSB usb without more.
The HTC P3300 doing this works simply a change in registration
You should go to the next branch of the registry:
HKLM / System / State / Hardware
And the key change "Headset" putting the value 1.
In the diamond I have now tested and active radio stations even caught but was not heard by the speaker is something that needs to be altered more in the diamond. Some who controls to see if it knows what to play.
Thanks
Maybe you can force the radio application to work without headphones but since the headphones are the FM antenna reception could be very poor.
i have a tiny adaptor i got from ebay which changes the mini usb to standard 3.5mm headphone jack.
since just having the adaptor in the phone without headphones plugged into the adaptor makes the diamond think theres a headset attached, i tried to open the FM radio and it would open (does not ask you to insert headset) but cannot pick up any stations as the headphones are the antenna!
so really your request is pointess as if you could get the FM radio to open without headphones plugged in, you wouldnt be able to listen to anything!

YC A 300 Multifunction Audio Cable

I'm having a problems with it so if anyone has some info on the matter I'd greatly appreciate...
I bought it to for use with my "headset" consisting of in ear headphone(s) and an external microphone (Olympus ME52W) both with 3.5mm jacks. The audio cable has "mic in lines" on 3.5 and 2.5mm jacks. Can I use some of those "2 in 1" adapters to get both of my periferals to one 3.5mm jack? Will the mic work? It's the 2.2 KOhm with plug in power system 1.5-10V if that's of importance. Does the cable give it enough power?
Since my electronics knowledge is almost zero can someone explain the mic and phones part?
Maybe I should explain what I want to achieve with my weird setup. The idea is to use it with some program which modifies my voice...don't ask me why...the mic should be as discrete as possible and the in ear bud is also in that way. That's why I avoid to use "normal" headphone+mic headset which would BTW work with YC A300, yes?
And one last thing, if some soldering will be necessary to get it to work, is there a schematics of extUSB on Diamond so I can get it to someone to put together the mic and earphones on 3.5mm jack? And hope to work.
What sort of microphone is the one which comes with official wired headset?
So many questions on my mind.
Sorry for the long one, but I really need this, and my searches on the subject were not very successful.

Use topaz as bluetooth headset / use on-board mic

I have searched everywhere and can't seem to find a answer to this...
I use a phone cradle in the car, using my topaz as my music player, connecting my phone to my car stereo with a male-male 3.5mm audio jack.
I want to be able to steam music via bluetooth from any other compatible phone / device to my phone, meaning I don't have to trail cables everywhere when a passenger wants to play something.
I would have thought this to be a simple-ish thing to setup but cannot find any information on how to do it. Is it even possible, and where would I start if it is?
I also want to use my on-board mic when the headset is plugged so I can have call audio over car speakers, although iv been led to believe this isn't possible because of hardware reasons, can anybody clarify that?
Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, not really sure where it should have gone.
If I understand you correctly, you want to stream music TO your phone over BT from another device? Not possible.
For hearing call over speakers and using mic, you need to get the M-F w/built in mic.
I too don't think it will be possible to stream music from another device to your phone except if you transfer the entire music mp3 file via bluetooth to your device and then play it from there.
Regarding the possibility of using the device's microphone whilst using the car speakers for sound, again I'm afraid I don't think this is possible. I have a similar set-up to you in that my TD2 is connected to an FM transmitter which also charges my TD2 at the same time in a nice cradle. The TD2 thinks it is connected to a headset when cradled. The microphone is inactive in this state which is a shame as it would have made a good hands free system if it were to be active....

I use this set up as well. You just need the cable with the built in mic.
My RF Transmitter has a male plug, So I found the HTC cable that has the HTC USB to Female with built in mic. This is my basic set up.

That set up looks great Bruce, but I don't want to be fiddling about plugging in so many cables with so many wires visible. Brodit does something similar too, all in a cradle with an extended wire so you would be able to hide all the cables....

[Q] External Mic for htc hd 2

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
