Are there any headphone adapters for Startrek? - HTC Startrek

My wife would like to use her Koss headset instead of the crappy stuff that comes with the unit. Is there an adapter that works like the 2.5 minijack to microphone + 3.5 minijack adapters that I have for my Atom? And please, don't even mention bluetooth! The headsets are nowhere near sounding as good as a cabled Koss yet, at least not within the price range we can afford!

Google is your friend.... this is a bit heavy on the DIY side but the principle looks solid.
http://www.4winmobile.com/tutorial-replace-hermes-headset-connector-with-35mm-socket-vt3146.html

I took the diy route, while it looks intimidating it's really very simple. Had my new headset adapter up an running in about 15 minutes.

Or a little less polite said: www.justfuckinggoogleit.com And yeah, I have thought about doing that, but the problem is that it won't be useful as a handsfree, and I would need something that does that. But I may try anyway, by cutting the plug of one of my XDA Atom 2.5 inch minijack to microphone + 3.5 inch plug units and soldering it to the thing. I just need to find out what cable to use for microphone, but that shouldn't be difficult. I was just hoping that there would be a ready made solution like the one I use for my Atom, from my eBay friend on netime in Hong Kong (no economical cooperation, I'm just a very satisfied customer). Look at item 320087044758, that's the one I use.
Another weird thing about that: I can get a similar item in Norway, and it may actually arrive 2-3 days sooner (usually not more). But it will cost me close to ten times as much! Talk about getting paid through the nose...or whatever orifice they put their money in.
Oh, not to be snotty, but I think my time will probably be closer to 5 than 15 minutes! I have all the equipment they mention, only in better versions, and I do know my way around a soldering iron. It does have it's perks to have an electronics engineer as a brother! He works in software now, but you should see his home workshop! The old stuff he gives me is probably better than all the hobby stuff you can buy!
Finally I'm glad that guy remembered to have a separate image showing that you need to put the plastic covering of the mini jack plug on first, since that's the number one idiot's mistake. This idiot has done it a few times as well...

You cut above the microphone to attach the jack, and then it can still be a handsfree device.

Yeah, that's an option. Thanks! But the Problem is that the cable will be very long. Anyway, I did it the way I described above, and it took about five minutes.

PPC Techs PDA2K 2-5mm - 3.5mm Stereo Headphone Adaptor

I wondered whether anyone has had a positive experience with this adapter on the XDA IIs. I bought one and it worked fine on my journey to work using Shure in-ear phones. Then after work I plugged in and could only get the left channel. No amount of fiddling would remedy this. So assuming a fault I returned it to the well known supplier and was sent a replacement. My experience with the repalcement today has been identical. It was fine on first use, then wouldn't work again. But I can't see that there is any way in which I could have damaged the adapter.
I'm beginning to think that there is something going on in terms of the way my XDA is responding to the cable. Or am I being paranoid, when it's actually a duff product?
Has anybody had sustained success?
UPDATE
Okay, so now it's working again but it starts to drift to the left channel after a while. Pressure on my headphone jack relative to the socket rectifies this, indicating a design problem with the socket, possibly exarcebated by expansion from being in a warm pocked. That's the only reason I can think of for it stopping working and then starting again. The fact that I've had problems with 2 of these is not a good sign.
Look here, it is that you are looking for
no
I specifically want to use audiophile grade headphones. I understand that Shure now do a mobile headset, but I don't want to pay out again when I already own 2 pair of quality headphones.
I guess I'll have to stick with the separate mp3 player.
There are TONS of 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptors. Just go to your local electrical hardware store.
It has to be one that is suitable for Blue Angel I'm told. I have a conventional adapter, but that doesn't work. It needs to have three plastic rings on the plug apparently.
I have some crappy headphones with a 2.5mm jack, and they work on the BA, so are you sure about that?
I tried a regular adapter that I already had, and that didn't work. There were 2 different cables available through Expansys, with specific instructions about which one would work with the XDA IIs. I bought the right one for about £10 including delivery, and you know the rest.
I've actually just resolved the problem by trying a cable from a Hong Kong trader on eBay for about £3.50. And it appears to better quality. I'll think again before buying from Expansys.
I use a little adaptor i bought for €0.60 ( $0.80 or something like that ), and it's working perfectly.
Oh how fortune has shone upon you.

Headphone adapters

For anyone who wants to order their 3.5mm solution now, take a look at this one from HTC: http://www.expansys-usa.com/p.aspx?i=159613
It’s the page for one listed as being for a Touch Cruise, but there’s a page with one for every HTC phone. I’ve been using it for a few months on my HTC Touch Cruise and it’s great. The plug itself is compact, no different in size than a 3.5mm headphone plug -- and stays put (it isn't shown in the photo). It has 2 parts, the cord with the plug at one end, and a microphone with a 3.5mm jack at the other. The other part is the throwaway earbud headphones that you can toss and use your own. No bulky dongle, and makes any favorite pair of headphones into your microphone/stereo headset. Personally, I forget HTC forgot the 3.5mm jack with this one, as it's just a cable, not an annoying adapter.
The pinout of the mini-usb jack on the G1 is the same as all other HTC phones, so at the very least the microphone and stereo audio will work. Some features of the answer-button that may or may not work on the G1: push once to answer; pushing while on a call places the call on hold; 2 quick presses redials the last number; 1 long press activates voice dial. Most likely, the button will mimick whatever functionality is present with the headset that ships with the device.
It's made by HTC, and is very durable. Beware the adapters from Seidio -- they last a couple weeks and then start to give out, audio stutters, fades in/out -- they're not constructed well and within a month or so the ends start to get loose from the wire; and you can't exactly run to Best Buy for replacements.
The budget-shipping rate from MobilePlanet.com should have them to you well before your G1 arrives
Question. How far will the microphone be from my mouth? How good is the microphone...the problem is my regular headphones are kinda long like the wire is probably a good 20 inches.
So by the time its plugged into the adapter the mic is gonna be 20 inches from my mouth..and I want to be able to pic up without using the phone? will it work?
Probably -- the mic is in the end that your headphones plug into, I don't know how long it is, but I do hold the mic up a bit when I use it as that. Primarily, I like it as it's not a dongle and in use is no different than having a 3.5mm headphone plugged in. The plug itself isn't big, it stays put, and if I need to speak on it I can. The mic quality is OK, though it picks up all background noise, and a slight breeze can sound like a windstorm. Talking on it is just a convenience for me, I really wanted a standard type stereo headphone cable that I could pick up a call on. My devices tend to be music players first, and phones 2nd.

Earbuds w/out Mic/Converter?
Hey all,
I've been looking for some earbuds that don't require an adapter and just plug into the G1's current plug, or have an annoying mic; just to listen to music with.
Something that would eliminate the need for this: http://cgi.ebay.com/2-5mm-Headset-H...14&_trkparms=72:1205|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318

is there a mini usb to rca adapter that can work with the g1?
Well, it's got 2 reviews, and a rating of 1 star on the company's site... There are tons of them on eBay, wonder if those are terrible... I suspect so.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280277868575
I ordered a few of those. I will let you guys know how long it takes to get to the US and how I like the adapter itself. I also need one for the car that lets me charge and then convert to 3.5 to go into my aux input in my car.

Might be easiest to go USB -> 3.5mm -> RCA. Not elegant but parts are available.

Here is a good 3.5 adapter that lets you charge at the same time.

Same volume as the headset that ships with it. Try it and see.
sorry i wasnt clear, i didnt mean does an adaptor effect the sound, purely what is mp3 quality and sound like through headphones generally on g1 (standard headphones or not) compared to say i-phone,nokia,sony erricson etc
Sounds good to me.
i have one of those adapters, i got it for my wing way back, i think they were like 99 cents or something so i bought a bunch, they wear out pretty fast though, there nice to play music from my g1 in my car, i just wish there was a way to keep the microphone on the phone so i could talk on the phone and have the audio come through my cars speakers.
Headphone adapter
The newer G1s are shipping with a really nice official headphone adapter in the box, but I can't find it for sale anywhere. Are early adopters just left out in the cold with no headphone support? HTC has these ExtUSB ports on every one of their phones but they don't seem to sell any official adapters so I'm going to be stuck buying sub-par chinese adapters off of Ebay.
anyone have any pictures of what the headphone adapters look like?
wth, i want one official one! maybe calling t-mobile, they will send us one?
It looks the same as the standard headphones the only difference is that at the head phones them selves aren't attached to the remote (one end of the remote is the usb cable and the other is a 3.5mm port) they are 3.5mm head phones. I called t-mobile about it because my brother got one and they said they new nothing they said it wasn't on the packing list so I called HTC and they said they new nothing and since there was no bulletin they could not send me anything. I went to my local t-mobile store asked them about it and they gave me a new one out of a returned phone. The reason that tmobile says that they are not shipping them with a 3.5mm adapter is because its just a modified head phone and not an adapter and head phones in the box. I would recommend going to your local t-mobile store and asking about it.
Sorry about the picture quality I took them with my super G1 camera.

2-in-1 [USB Mini/3.5 MM] adapter

So I just purchased this handy little adapter which takes the USB port on the bottom of the G1 and turns it into a USB Mini jack and a 3.5 MM headphone jack. Why go to all this trouble? So I can charge AND play music at the same time
I bought this little piece of wonder off of Amazon for $6 including shipping, and it arrived in 3 business days. I'm really glad I bought it! Here's the review I posted on Amazon:
This is truly a neat little device. I often want to play music in my room over my T-Mobile G1, and it's a battle of charge versus play. I have to make sure that if I do play music, I'll have time afterwords to charge back up. Not the case anymore! I'm able to play music and charge my phone at the same time.
The adapter is very compact for what it does; it looks much bigger in the pictures than it actually is. It's about the size of a quarter, and a little longer width-wise. Sound quality is great; compared to the stock adapter that comes with the G1, I found that bass frequencies are carried much more better and with a little more "oompf". I found a lot more power for my system, and it works great.
The build quality is what you would expect; plastic build with very solid adapter ports. I don't expect it to break at all. The phone charges at the same rate of speed as normal, even with playing music. The port that plugs into the phone is the proprietary port that the G1 has, and the "out" USB port is your typical mini-USB port.
Overall, it's a great product, and a must have for all G1 users!

i just ordered this...i was tired of having to take out my headphones when i wanna charge my phone
I have the 3 in one charger but what i really need is something just like this but i need to have each port n an opposite side. Why you ask?
I have a Moto p790 charger and i would like to be able to have that plugged in while i have my headphones in. now that would be useful.
kind of like this one but smaller.

Did you try switching earbuds? Haha sounds simple...but I have this really bad luck with audio devices, that eventually everyone I have I break the soldering points that connect the jack to the circuit board, and I always loose an ear of sound. It's just odd...but that could be it as well.

I bought this and it works with every rom I've tried. Cyanogen, JAC, JF.
I also needed an extension so I could hard wire my charger and line in behind my car dash with only one lead showing and the HTC adaptor has about an inch of cable between the EXTUSB and the adaptor itself. I hunted high and low but could only find one company who could do it and it were these guys.
Jays Earphones
I want one of these but it's much too thick for what I wanted it for (I only want music), Isn't there one that has only mini USB to 3.5 mm? I thought I had seen one a while ago.
I got one made by HTC when I got my Wing a couple years ago. It works great on my G1 and my MT. It is super handy to have it you listen to a lot of music
got a link where I could get one?
def. getting this tonight
Tried this on a friends G1 (stock T-mobile firmware lastest updates) and it does not come up with a headset icon like it does on my touchdiamond2. Does this mean it does not work or is the headset icon just for when you have a microphone attached?
i've noticed on the HTC one that the 3.5mm headset jack doesnt work. you need to use the adapter cable that came with the phone and plug it into the headphone port on the htc adapter.

I have an HTC Fuze and it came with this little Gem. It works on my G1 and MyTouch without issue. I love this thing! You can find them on eBay for around $7.00 USD
microphone?
When using this on a G1, if you plug a headset with microphone into the 3.5mm jack, does the microphone work on calls? I've read mixed reviews about this on Amazon and wondering if anyone has had experiences? Thanks,
I just got an HTC YC A300 today and it's working brilliantly!
It's 4-in-1, with extUSB headset plug, 2,5mm (mic+headphone), 3,5mm and extUSB power and data.

Travel speakers

Hi!
Hope you guys can help me.
I´m going out travelling next month and now i´m looking for some good travelling speakers for my Rhodium. I´ve been looking around, but the most i found are made for iPhone.
So now I´m asking if someone knows if it exists similiar for HTC?
And not the tiny ones with crappy sound?
Blutooth, usb, 3,5mm? Come with suggestions, please.
(Sorry for bad english)
[Edit]Someone tried the Altec Lansing inMotion IM4?
You CAN get an adaptor lead from the micro USB to 3.5mm stereo, that should widen your options considerably
FWIW I picked up one at a local accessories stand in my local shopping centre yesterday which cost me less than five quid, and works well. You can't use the call button on the adaptor (not a dedicated HTC converter), but it still has the correct pinout for audio in and out.
If your local mobile phone accessory shops can't help, there's always online sources...
Here's a handy google search that highlights this for you

Thanks for your anwers but I went for the usb to 3,5mm plug and a pair of computer speakers. It will probably give me better sound than the tiny ones.

I know I'm (very) late to the party... -- but, for anyone else finding this thread, I have to agree.
I'm technically deaf; & yet these little critters (combined with my hearing aids -- & for those times when I'm not on my own: & therefore Bluetoothing(!?) the music straight to my aids...) belt out more than enough well-defined sound to entertain me -- ...& for all types of music.
They're extremely portable, as well: clipping together; & coming with their own carrying 'pouch', & all necessary cables.
NB: Get the pair, though... -- I'm not convinced that one would sound half as good on its own. [It'd be lonely, as well....]
I've been very happy with http://www.alteclansing.com/index.php?file=north_product_detail&iproduct_id=t515
You can pick up a pair on ebay for about $100.

Bad audio quality with earphones

Hi,
I just purchased this phone used a few days ago, and all is perfect apart from one issue.
The sound with earphones is unbalanced. I can only hear vocals through the right channel and the left channel is much quieter. I have of course tried different headphones/earphones. I have captured audio playback from the phone and played it back on my PC to make sure it wasn't a settings/software problem, and the recorded audio sounds fine. I have tried two different CM13 roms, both with same issue.
I think the issue may be either the USB C to 3.5mm adapter, the USB C port or CM13. I have ordered 2 new adaptors (seller didn't include one), one being the official LeEco adaptor and the other being a 'Galopar' adaptor which is the one I'm using atm. I'm going to install the devices stock ROM to 100% rule out software issue.
It will be a huge shame if it is the USB port which is broken, I will have to return the phone Anyone else encountered this issue or am I alone?
Sound through the LeEco adapter is great. I ordered some non-LeEco ones and it was awful - unbalanced, muted and not clear. That is probably your problem too.

Ah that's good news I look forward to receiving the official adapter. I can no longer worry about the USB C port :victory:
Here's a link to the official adapter I ordered. I assume it's official as it has the LeEco logo
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331993788...49&var=541037151845&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Here's a link to the adapter I currently own, which is probably faulty. Another thing to note, when plugging in a 3.5mm device to the adapter, my phone goes a bit mad and thinks I'm spamming the mic/google voice assistant
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01ISYXZTC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Will update when the adapters arrive
One little tip - the official one is quite weak at the point where the cable joins the USB plug. Be careful about it bending too much. It is liable to bend double if you have it poking out of your pocket, as the weight of the headphone cable pulls it down towards the ground. My first one went bad after just a couple of weeks. With the replacement, I have reinforced it at the weak point with some white electrical tape. Seems to have done the trick, but I am also being more careful with it. Same problem with the LeEco CDLA earbuds cable too, btw.

Have read good things of this Griffin one, I'm planning on picking one up this Xmas:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01H...&keywords=griffin+bluetooth+headphone+adapter
I have also ordered some Skullcandy bluetooth in-ears. Think wireless is the way to go for daily mobile use. I'm not going to blame LeEco too much for that either - have had a string of headphone cable failures with wired headphones on other devices in the past too, even with fairly expensive headphones (e.g. Shure).
Edit: I see from your previous post that you are in the UK. They have the Griffin one at Argos, so I'm going to buy one there I think - I live in Japan but coming home for Xmas, and Brexit pound makes for cheap shopping with my Yen

Edit: I see from your previous post that you are in the UK. They have the Griffin one at Argos, so I'm going to buy one there I think - I live in Japan but coming home for Xmas, and Brexit pound makes for cheap shopping with my Yen

Think I might go Argos next week I would love some wireless earphones, but I don't think any exist that will sound as good as my SE315s :crying: I'm on my third cable for these lol
I feel the same way about my Marshall Majors. Unfortunately unlike the Major II, they don't have a detachable cable so I have to baby them. Have stopped using them out of the house.

Jest curious, if you have to connect the headphone to the BlueTooth receiver, why don't you connect it to the phone directly? It should sound much better. This device only makes sense if you are trying to stream music from your notebook.

Because, as I said, the usb adapter dongle is liable to cable failure.
