So I've been looking for an app that will turn the HTC One into a wireless audio receiver. Basically i'm trying to play movies/music on my computer and listen to the audio through headphones or speakers on the phone.
Any recommendations on app to use?

is there any software that could let me use an audio adapter for an audio input?
Reason being I have a redfly, one of those new ones that dose video from an MP3 Player and a set of bluetooth headphones and I think it would be grate to have the audio from both devices coming out the headphones especally since I can use both devices at once now. I know its a lot of wires but its hard to wear 2 sets of headphones at the same time.
I'm looking into car stereos, and is there a way to get one with a usb port that I could do audio out of the phone through it?
Right now I have to cables needed for my phone in the car, power cable and headphones. I'm trying to see how I can eliminate the headphones, but still keep the ability to use my phone for music (while its charging). I keep my music on the internal storage (not SD), but also use Pandora or Audiogalaxy.
Also if there are any stereo units that can do this and have support for ipod of usb that would be great too.
almost every car stereo brand has one with usb ports but unfortunately I think you need one with an auxiliary out that will connect thru 3.5 mm headphone jack
edit: I think there might be some out there that have bluetooth for playing music actually

Check CrutchField.com and it should work just like you want. Go to best buy with your cable and plug into one of the HU's there and try it. Your music would need to be on the SD card and disk drive setup from the phone end I think

This means your phone will act as an USB thumb drive.. It may not be the same effect you want, but is a pretty good solution.
I use a nice sony head to stream the media audio to in my truck, often 8 or 10 hours a day, love it. A few head units will allow phone and audio seperately. The ability to connect bt headset and head unit to the phone is well worth the money if you spend much time driving
Pioneer offers many units that have the bluetooth built in that allow audio streaming and call interuption etc
I know in my 2011 Camaro i can do call audio and any audio on my Incredible (ie: music, sounds, games, videos all output audio via bluetooth since the radio acts as headphones) but of course were also talking about a stereo that has rare support for the Zune integrated right into the USB.
The sony in my 2011 freightliner does the media and phone seperately, phone can be connected to stereo and headset at the same time, mp3 thru the stereo and calls thru the headset. Even with the external mic for the stereo people got too much background noise. Car might be a little quieter inside tho

I don't mind that the Nook only has one speaker, but it does annoy me how it is only left stereo audio. Listen to a song with a guitar track on each channel left and right and you only hear half the song.
Is there any way to sum the stereo audio and output to the speaker on a software level?
Can it be assumed then that you are against simply plugging some stereo earphones, speakers, or a radio transmitter into the headphone jack? You could even stream it wirelessly to many stereo DLNA devices using an app such as the free Twonky Media Server from the Market.
Nook speaker mode needed stat!!! Hopefully the part out will reveal space for a second speaker and/or replacing with a bigger/better option.

No, not against it. In fact, I rarely use it for music at all. Just principle, I want to hear both audio tracks without having to use headphones.
Just wondering if it can be done..
Well that would certainly be one reason for the loss of volume when playing over the speaker. I was not aware that the audio processor couldn't mix stereo down to mono for the onboard speaker.
Wad considering making a dock with speakers b/c the mono was so bad very tinney Speaker.

No way to force the OS to run Mono unless the headphone port is used?
Has anyone noticed that if you use your phone to play music to over your car stereo via bluetooth using a fm transmitter the sound quality is more top heavy with little to no bass, however if you use the rca cable through the headphone jack on the phone or fm transmitter (GOgroove Flexsmart X2found on Amazon.com) it has a balance sound quality. My question would be is an an app out there or is there any way to correct this issue thru the phone settings.
bump, Does anyone have any ideas behind the limitations of bluetooth's sound quality?

I'm considering pick up a Z3 Compact, and was wondering if anyone could tell me if you could listen to music via the headphone jack and have bluetooth connected for phone calls at the same time. I know that the Galaxy S3, for example, cannot do that, while HTC phones can.
Just so it's clear, this is what I'd like to do:
Headphone jack connected to car stereo's aux in for music, navigation audio, etc.
Bluetooth connected to car for hands free phone calls.
(My car is a few years old and can't do music over bluetooth.)
Can the Z3 do it?
Thanks!
Just tested with the sbh52 and Vizio sound bar auxiliary port.
Works just as you desire. When answering a call, the audio cuts from the headphone jack and routes to the Bluetooth device automatically. This occurs whether you answer from the phone or Bluetooth device. Upon hanging up, the music resumes playing and can be controlled with your Bluetooth device.
