I used to listen to my songs using the AUX input with my Xperia Z1 in my car radio. But now, (I don't know if this ahve to do with upgrading to .757) it won't play and it says that the headphone isn't compatible. I'm just using a P2-P2 cable plugged in my AUX car's radio input and in my Z1 phone output
That is impossible. That cable have nothing sophisticated to tell to the phone that isn't compatible and the jack have audio out only. I use that system too in my car to listening Unz, Unz, Unz, and nothing strange jet. Somehow you have to get rid of that notification.

It works with my xperia neo. Also, neo's headset dont worlk with z1, but thats because they have microphone and the ground ring was changed in 2011+ xperia phones...
I can't plug my Z1 into my Makita site radio, it doesn't play anything through the AUX, although the phone seems to think it's got headphones plugged in. Tried a few cables, some newer and some older with no variation in results.

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....
I recently bought a headset (Sonic Gear Nano Plug) and plugged it into my X8 directly and the X8 didn't detect it (I'm using GingerDX v22), there was an adapter that came with the headset called a PC Chat Convertor cable so I used my headphones that way, but I noticed that it took a couple times of replugging for the headphones to actually play properly as other times it would only play output on the right side of the earpieces, I found online that it could be fixed through the use of a TRRS audio adapter, just curious on whether anyone has had to deal with this problem and how did you all fix it...
Yep.. It's a pain in the ass.. TRRS is just the name of a 4 pin jack.
The problem is that some brands (mostly nokia, samsung and SE) like to reverse the pins so you have to use their headphones.. It's pathetic, i know.. I tried my sister's headphones (blackberry) and the sound is distorted, the same goes if she tries my SE ones in her phone.
There are some TRRS adapters that can reverse the pins so you can use any kind of headset on these types of phones.. I never tried them but they work..

I think your headset is the problem..
I recently bought a Sonic Gear earplug -- which I forgot what model it was -- and I also got the cable adapter which u called the PC Chat Convertor. And guess what .. not just my x8 wont detect it but my others phone as well .. I tried on my nokia c1-01, it detected it but I can only hear the music at a very low volume even though my volume is already at it max!..
But after I plugged in the PC Chat converter cable and stick in the green jack into my audio jackpot, it works like a charm on any phone ..
That thing sucks man .. and I finally bought a brand new Hibiki earplug ..

Take a time to read my previous post..
The pc adapter resolves the problem but only for listening, you cannot use the mic.
Test those buds on a phone that is not nokia/se/samsung and you will see that they will work as they should.

Had the same problem with my Skullcandy Icon 2's. Took them to a friend's, disabled the mic and now they work perfectly. It's the mic that causes all the problems, if you can disable it the headset works perfectly. No mic, ofc.
Guys,
i really wondering that;
i bought a new g note, and i wanted to use 5.1 surround system.
it connected with BT stereo headset and when i wanted to use 5.1, a box appeared like "this effect is able to use just headset mode"...

I have wondered the same thing myself, however it is worth noting that the 5.1 audio you refer to is a psychoacoustic "simulated" surround effect through two speakers. As a result, it is extremely subjective and some people can't hear the effect, others hear it fine, others like me just hear irritating phase distortions over the music.
Simple version: it's a fake simulation that's not worth using anyway.
However I will add that if you have a video that has a full "real" 5.1 encoded audio track, it *should* output this through the MHL to HDMI adapter. Bluetooth is only stereo, though.

Funny thing is i tried this with my bluetooth headset today after owning since november. Thought i was the only one.
If its anything like the sgs2/sgs then it didnt make a huge difference.

i've been wondering this, my car has Bose centerpoint 5.1 surround. it would be nice if i could send a 5.1 signal via bluetooth..... wondering if it's even possible to output 5.1.......
Just wanted to check is anyone else is finding that headphones plugged into this jack often are not picked up by the phone and the speaker is used instead.
Happens both with my car AUX and my in ear Klipsch earphones, although if I jiggle the plug it sometimes works. The bundled headphones (MH750) so not seem to suffer this problem.
Is this a widespread problem or an issue with my handset?
the MH750 has 3 rings on the jack as a opposed to the 2 rings on the connector for your other headphones am I right? Having the extra ring on it (meant for the remote) may be what is adding the extra tightness when inserted. I'm not sure how to solve your AUX problem but you may need to try headphones which have a built in remote like the MH750 so that it has the extra ring on the connector. This may also be a defect, as I can not confirm since my device is still on it's way.
EDIT : After receiving the phone this happened to me once. You have to play around with the smart connect settings o disable it all together. It doesn't seem to be hardware related.
i have the same problem here .

Hi. I heard that any kind of old earphones don`t work on Xperia Z1, Unfortunately. So, I`m looking for advice about using my Xperia Arc`s earphone.
The wiring swapped to be the same as on the iPhone I believe, perhaps back with the Xperia S onwards.
You might be able to get an adapter, but I'd suggest just getting new earphones unless you're really attached to the ones on the Arc!
All normal "3 pin" earphones work just fine (except for a little bit of static noise for a few seconds after plugging in). There will be problems with old headsets though.
Headsets must comply to the new CTIA headset standard!

I should have added that normal headphones are okay, it's anything with a mic or control buttons (e.g. call/end).
