Stream Music From Hero To Car Radio? - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is this possible? I want to be able to stream like pandora or my MP3's to my car radio. My car radio sux and doesnt have an input jack...nor bluetooth..its an older 2000 alero
Normally I'd buy an FM transmitter to stereo jack piece of hardware..but I thought maybe check with you guys first to see if its possible to wireless transmit my music to the car radio.
Maybe I do need an FM Transmitter tho eh?

unless your car has bluetooth, then yeh you need a transmitter...
ps, i recently purchased a garmin touch screen gps with an fm transmitter and an sd card slot, so i just put my micro sd in an sd card adapter and into the gps and stream to the car radio!
i guess this would be useful if you have something like this or are looking to purchase a gps unit

Buy a cheap Bluetooth stereo, they don't cost much and it all get that much better and easier.

this is what you want....
Motorola T505. I have one and love it!

FM transmitter for TyTN

Hi,
My Vario II justification to the misses was that we'd be able to listen to music in the car with it (our CD player is dead).
Has anyone come across an FM transmitter that you can power from the car cigar lighter and plug directly into the mini usb socket on the TyTN?
Cheers,
Steve.
I'm looking for the same thing
I bought a SONY MEX5000 BT stereo that uses Bluetooth streaming. It is so cool! much better quality(sound) then the radio ones. I dont carry CDs anymore just everything over BT with MP3s.

and how to connect ?
--> no way @ this moment ...
Try Nokia HS-12W. Google to see how it looks like.
It is a bluetooth Stereo Headset which you can listen to MP3 played from Tytn.
It is also a standalone FM Radio by itself without the Tytn at all.
I have one, cool.
Hi and is there a bluetooth receiver taht one can plug into a stereo ?
HS-12W is a Wireless (no wire between it and phone) Stereo Headphone via Bluetooth with Build in FM Radio.
What I meant about the bluetooth reciever is if there is one that tha pda streams music and is recieved by a device that can be plugged into the home stereo, same principle as a headset only differance is that it'll go to speakers.....hop I made it clearer this time... or maybe it's that I am not gettin it jaja
You are refering to Home Stereo Hi-Fi Amplifier/Receiver to speakers. Well it is something I was thinking about some years ago when I first read the white paper on Bluetooth v2.0 A2DP Profile.
But Hi-Fi industry in term of following latest trend is normally a little slower than the computer & mobile industry. So far, not that I know of that there is a build in Bluetooth Hi-Fi system including speakers. Maybe it is time to do a google on this topic, it would be good if there is such solution to get rid of the messy wire connections.
I do know that there is such thing as Bluetooth Donger, which is a bluetooth device with a headphone jack and you can plug the headphone jack into the Hi-Fi headphone jack and bingo you have wireless music with you wireless headphone, but bluetooth is quite subject to surrounding interfence, so you may have broken music in your ears.
The is also some not so good old technology using Infra-Red. The better ones are the wireless headphone sets using RF frequency which you can listen to music even you and your hi-fi are in different room.
Hope I got your question right this time.
Hey CWKJ,
Thanx for your reply. Look at the following link:

It's a bluetooth speaker, but what I am looking for is something that can make any car home stereo into a bluetooth reciever...
You mean something like the Tunestage II for the iPOD?
http://www.techdigest.tv/2006/10/belkins_tunesta.html
I'm looking for something similar that will plug into a car stereo - i.e. a bluetooth receiver which will plug into the external input of my car stereo, so I can stream to it from my TyTN - anyone know of anything?
PS Yes, I have seen the Parrot MK6000, but I don't think its out until Q1 2007....
BINGO!! Yes like this, only that you don't need the transmitter (tytyn would be it!).
check out the I-Tech S35 clip. A2DP receiver with a 5mm headset jack. You can cable this to your car with an adaptor cable. The I-Tech doesn't skip either!
Yes! this seems to work! jajaj do you actually use it? or know of someone that has used it with this purpose?
Once again thank you for your responses!
I've not used it myself for this purpose. I've no doubt that it will work though. What I am interested in is the usable range. The applicaton I have in mind will require 4-5 meter range from the I-Tech device to my TyTN.

Ok, you are talking about car hi-fi system, the speaker looks good.
For Home hi-fi system, maybe there isn't bluetooth audiophile speaker yet.
For the car hi-fi system, there are some with the audio output (the Left - Right or White - Red cable build-in type audio output cable). Buy another cable adaptor (Left - Right/White - Red to stereo headphone cable) and the Bluetooth Donger, connect them up and you will have the audio on you bluetooth speaker. Hope this works!
Hey! look at this:

Sony always has great product.
November 18 in Japan? If so, wondering when it will be available in other parts of the world?
I already found some for sale in ebay!! wow!

Polaris send audio to radio.

Does anyone know if you can buy something that plugs into the polaris so that it transmits audio over radio waves that can be picked up by my car radio.
I want to listen to my music and audiobooks in the car but can't! A mate had a thing that he plugged into his ipod and he tuned the radio so that we can listen to ipod tunes.
Thanks!
That's a personal FM transmitter, found everywhere, you connect any audio source (ipod/TouchCruise/etc) to it then you can use your fav FM radio to listen, now about TouchCruise, you may need an ExtUSB to 3.5mm jack converter to connect both.
ahh, nice one. Its so easy to find stuff when you know the proper name. £11 from ebay.
First: look here XDA decent FM transmitter for Cruise
Second: buy Venturi mini on ebay for around 40-45 pounds

[Q] Streaming music via bluetooth on Mygig nav/radio

Anyone been successful in streaming music/audio books from the ATT GS2 to their Mygig nav/radio system (I have a 2011 Dodge Nitro, latest firmware)?
The Captivate did not work correctly either. :/
I have a 3.5mm jack but Bluetooth should work dang it!
Cy
if u want wireless music, here is a solution which is what im doing in my 2006 bmw 325xi.
i have a 3.5mm audio input, so i bought a bluetooth audio receiver and plugged it into the 3.5mm slot in my armrest and there is a 12v power input there too, so i have everything inside my armrest plugged in and then my phone is transmitting to the receiver and bam wireless audio in my car!
might not be an ideal situation for you, but this is how im doing it. although i do have bluetooth integrated into my stock head unit, but its for only phone calls, i tried to use some apps found in the market that stream to mono bluetooth headsets (ear piece) i assumed it would of worked in my car, but no luck :/
so i hope this helps!

2 android DEVICES, use one to stream BLUETOOTH AUDIO to the other

Hi guys
I have an older car without bluetooth or AUX in. I have been using a cheap FM transmitter with a 3mm plug to play music from my phone through the car radio.
I am looking to buy a bluetooth FM transmitter but haven't decided which one to get yet, maybe santa will bring me one 8-}
Anyway, until I get BT/FM device... I have an older android phone (Samsung Galaxy Gio s5660) that doesn't get used anymore. I was thinking maybe I could leave that permanently plugged in, in the car, and have it pair with my Nexus 4 so that poweramp on the N4 can stream to the s5660 and play through the headphone jack > 3mm FM transmitter.
Is this possible and how do I go about doing it? Apps to use, etc? I don't really know a whole lot about bluetooth. I'm just tired of plugging in the cord every time I get in the car.
Thanks any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
I guess it's unpossible then

Xperia P - stream music to car radio?

Hi all,
I have a very old car radio and my cds stopped working. I was wondering if my phone can transmit fm to the car radio? If yes, which app? Of no, can i buy some transmitter that i could first connect to my phone and then transmit to car radio?
It would be even more awesome if i could transmit internet radio from phone.
Thanks!
Edit - Never mind

Right....sorry about that. I'm ill so i got a bit confused.
Anyway, any useful info?
In my opinion fm tx-ing is very crappy, it would be better for you to change your old car radio in a less old car radio with an AUX in jack.
Then you will be able to connect your phone via a coaxial stereo cable 3,5mm jack from your phone to the car radio jack.
Audio quality will be for sure better that way, even if a bit more expensive (with 50 euros or less you'll find some entry level car radio with aux in jack) then buying a Chinese FM transmitter.
You're probably right...still maybe someone tried something that works good and is cheap to get.
If i can' t find anything, i'll go for a radio exchange option.
Thanks
