so I have an amp with a 3.5 connection for devices, when I connect my XZ2P to the input via the included dongle it only works one way when I plug the Type C into the phone, yes it is supposed to be reversible which it is with headsets but when into an amp it has to be a certain way up or there is no sound, I suspect a SW bug when the phone tries to identify the type of connection, I have tried all sorts of setting on the phone to see what works and it only works when the type C usb is connected one way - which I have now marked on the connector...…………………...reversible - no it isn't with certain types of connections

Hi, I am having problems in using Voice Command 1.6 when my ATT Tilt (ROM version: 1.62.502.0) is connected to external speakers such as TV speakers, Car speakers etc. I am using 3 in 1 USB Adaptor to connect cable to speakers.
The problem seems to be with Microphone of the phone which is for some reason being deactivated as soon as the 3 in 1 USB adapter is plugged into the phone. For the first time when I used 3 in 1 USB cable, it worked fine. But after that it stopped working and Microphone is being deactivated as soon as 3 in 1 cable is inserted into phone.
Whereas, when I insert other USB cable such as for charging, ActiveSync etc, microphone seems to be active and I can use Voice Command while the cable is inserted.
Please help. I need the microphone to be active to be able to use VoiceCommand while my phone is connected to my car's AUX port speakers.

you have to use that original htc adapter to connect a universal earphone. this adapter has a microphone in the 3,5 mm plug.
Hi Matthes, You mean, the original htc adapter has microphone builtin?
Also, as I mentioned, my voice command worked properly with my adaptor once (for the first time).
I am not sure mine is original or not, I bought it online and there is no brand name on the adaptor. All it says is 3 in 1 USB Adaptor, RoHS, Made in China. I dont even have the original package for this adaptor. So, cant tell if its HTC or not.
Does the original adaptor says 'HTC' on it?
Does anyone know if it is possible to just use the USB cable to connect to a PC, and then to play the Audio from the HTC to the computer with out and Audio adapter in the middle? Currently I have my Fuze connected with an audio adapter but I think its clunky sitting on my desk with two cables coming out and then connecting to the Computers audio in and USB. Also that will free up my audio adapter to use somewhere else. Any help would be great. Thanks
not the best solution
Ok so this isn't my best solution but its the best I've come up with. So my computer has bluetooth. So...I set up the Bluetooth gateway to pipe through my computer as a headphone. It works but I wish there was anotherway to to do it without bluetooth.
how dyou get your computer to act as a speakerphone? mac or pc?
How I did it
So basically you have to turn on Bluetooth on your phone and have it on on your PC/Laptop. Then just connect and as long as you have your Bluetooth Audio Gateway setup it will use your computer to play what your phone speakers use to. This usually works, but sometimes it gets hokie and I have to turn off the bluetooth and try again.
Hey, so, I have a micro-usb to usb+3.5mm-audio cable from an old phone's car dock, which I'd like to use with the "Audio-Out Accessory" setting in my HTC One's car-mode app. The problem is, when the cable is plugged in, the Audio-Out Accessory setting still registers as "disconnected."
I've tried triggering "car dock mode" with tasker to no effect. I'm wondering whether it's a matter of a missing extra resistor on the mini-usb to make the phone recognize the audio-out cable as connected, and if there's a software-only way to spoof that resistor's presence. Or maybe there's a necessary intermediary between the phone and the cable that converts the digital usb-out signal to analog?
Any ideas?
I recently got my USB-C port replaced by Razer because it was charging right and it out of nowhere stop syncing to Android auto. Now it charges fine but my car still won't recognize the phone, it will for a sec and then it disconnects. Also when I plug my earphones in, the audio still plays through the speakers, in option pops up to change the USB preference but it won't do it.

One thing is that some USB-C headphones don't have a AMP/DAC built-in. This is a common problem with Razer Phone 2 users, as it doesn't have one inside. So, if your headphone adapter or USB-C headphones don't have one built-in it won't work. 2, seems like Android Auto doesn't like some USB cables. Try some troubleshooting from at the "My Android Auto app isn't working" page on the Android Auto help page.
I was experiencing relatively the same thing. I tried cleaning and tightening the usb-c port on my phone. Didn't help. So I tried cleaning out the usb-c charging cable, the end that plugs into the phone. Problem solved. It works fine now, for the most part. Still will disconnect from Android Auto if I move the phone around to bunch. Or put the cable in a bind near the end that plugs into the phone.

Android auto and the adapter for the earphones used to work fine, it just happened out of nowhere before way before I sent the phone to get fixed like 2 weeks ago, the problems started last year but i think there was an update of some sort. It still won't connect, even when using the original adapter and my pc doesn't even pick up that the phone is even connected, it will just charge. I've already check the device manager to see if it was a bad driver but nothing. no matter what device i connect, it will just say "Charging connected device via USB". ive Already tried USB debugging, disable USB audio routing, cleaning it, and apps to manually control it.
Hello, I have an idea how we can make the current Android Auto completely WIRELESS.
Idea is as follows:
Plug a micro Dongle in the car's USB port.
The Dongle will essentially be a WiFi Tranciever. (it may need custom code/firmware etc.)
The Dongle will talk to the Android Phone over WiFi (Because Bluetooth is already being used by Android Auto).
A custom program will be running on the Android phone to send ALL USB Data to the Dongle using WiFi.
Suggested Dongle models:
Xbee, Arduino with WiFi module, any other similar board, possibly any cheap Chinese WiFi USB dongle available on Ebay/Aliexpress.
Things to consider:
The Car's infotainment must recognize the Dongle when it is plugged in as a "USB device" (not a USB Stick/Flash Drive !!!)
The Dongle may need custom code/firmware that will start sending packets to the car's infotainment as soon as it is connected/powered up/car ignition is on, in order to Emulate a phone running android auto.
In the mean time, the app running on the phone will already be connected to the Dongle and the two will be talking to each other.
I you have any other suggestions, leave a comment bellow.
PS: Such devices (USB Over the Air) are actually available on the market, but are quite bulky. We need something smaller.
But even if it is big, we can use a Micro USB plug like this one with flat cable, that will run in the Phone tray, where the board will be hidden so it will not be visible at all!!! :good::laugh:

Just cut the other end of the flat cable if needed and solder as necessary.
Again, if you have specific ideas/suggestions leave a comment bellow.
