Hello,
I've bought Touch HD without headset and after few days I've bought headset too. But unfortunately I recognise that it is headset for Diamond (via usb, not mini jack) and my phone shows that I can't use this headset.
Is there any possibility to break that blockade and use that headset?
Thanks for help!!!
Ah, I just gave my Tytn Headset a go, and it gives the same warning message telling me its not supported and i have to remove it.
The hardware may not actually be capable of using the socket for audio, you're probably better off getting another actual 3.5ml Jack headset.
But in ported android for blackstone you can chose, which headset you want to use, so hardware is O.K.
I think that it is matter of changing registry but it's only my prediction
interesting. Did you actually get an ext-usb headset working with Android?
i've tryed the htc cable extusb-rca , to use the blackstone like an mp3 player in my car, with the aux-in of the original radio...but it doesn't work :-(
i must use just the 3,5mm jack....
does someone have news about this?
Hey
I've just tested my micro USB headset that i have from O2 XDA Zest and it doesn't work on HTC Touch HD (Windows Mobile 6.5)
if the touch hd's extusb connector does not support tv out or audio out, what is the point of giving it an extusb connector at all, a normal mini-usb would have done.
i would love to get a docking station like this: http://cgi.ebay.de/System-S-USB-Cradle-Dock-HTC-Touch-HD-Pianolack-/350303026359?pt=Handy_Zubehör but that would require the extusb actually working and being able to be split up into 3.5mm audio and normal mini usb.

Does anyone know if the HTC P3350 W100 Wired Remote Control
http://www.expansys.com/htc/p_htc_item.aspx?i=147564[/URL]
will work with the Cingular 8525 (Hermes, TyTN)? This is sold in Europe and can be had in the US from Mobile Planet which seems to be the same as expansys.com.
On the European HTC site there is also a media fix that may apply to this accessory as well as the Y connector.

Downloading and installing this driver update will provide your HTC mobile device with the latest available optimised software for use with the following accessories:

The hot music setup for Mogul and 8525
I just purchased the HTC RC W100 Remote from Mobile Planet. It connects to the phone's extUSB and provides a 3.5mm headset jack that carries the mic port out to the connector. It has a 36" cord so there is a lot of cord if you have a long headset cord.
The head has controls for fast forward, pause, +/- volume and you can answer/end calls, mute and put a call on/off hold. This assumes that you have a mic on your headset to talk into.
The http://www.Europe.HTC.Com site says it is for the TyTn II but it seems to work with both the 8525 and the Mogul . . . It is not on the USA site at all.
I use the Sure SE110s stereo headset (individual internal sub-woofer component) and added their MPA-C cable that has a mic in it (Thsi would work for any headset). I have not found any other solutions that wok this well.
The standard headset really has poor quality and is uncomfortable for my ears. Bluetooth is either a mono headset w/ mic or a stereo headset (no mic) and the battery life is unpredictable.
This way I can ride my bike and control my music while the Mogul stays in my camel-back and when a call comes I can actually answer it and then go back to listening.
Very cool setup.
So this doesn't solve the headphone problem? Can't I just buy this and a pair of headphones? I don't need handfree anyway
E: Why a 36'' cord? I totally lost interest

I do not know what headset problem you are referring to but this is definitely a solution if you want to listen to music with a good stereo headset. I just happen to like the Shure stuff because they eliminate some road and wind noise while I am riding my bike or skiing. Also the higher end ones actually have miniature tweeters and sub-woofers built in.
All you need is the W100 and any headset with a 3.5mm jack.
As it turns out, I just found out the unit has a built-in mic and that eliminates the need for a more expensive headset that has a mic. There was nothing in the manual that came with it that talked about the mic! So RTFB does not work!
It also comes with a small disc that has the driver in it. I tried to install it on my Mogul but it said that I had the latest driver . . .
As far as the 36" cord, my Shure headset comes in 2 pieces, the earphones are on a short cord so it is not too long. If you had a standard headset, it might get a little long.
The other side of the Shure headset has the connectors that go into the device(s). This way you can have several different connectors for different phones, MP3 players, etc. Blackberry's and Razor's have different jacks and most cell phones like the HTC 8125 (Cingular) use a 2.5 mm jack.
I am currently connecting my TC to the car stereo through one of those casettes that have an audio jack connection and the YC A120 cable. The problem with this solution is that I get a lot of annoying noise when the phone is lloking for a cell signal.
So I thought about buyinng one of those car stereos that have a frontal USB port for aux connection. I went to a shop recently and tried one out ad to my surprise I could not get it to work with the TC, it would seem that there is no audio output. Has anyone been able to connect their TC to the car stereo in this way? The salesman demonstrated that the stereo connnection did work by connection his Nokia phone and it work fine. One thing I did notice was that the Nokia phone displayed a message "transfering data" as teh music was playing.
I don't want to buy a bluletooth car stereo since I am looking at changing my car soon. So the other option is to buy a car stereo with a frontal audio 3.5 jack aux connection, but i was wondering whx the USB did not work.
I think you must try WM5TORAGE ... you must plug a USB key on the USB port, so if you install and activate WM5TORAGE, your POLARIS seems like a USB storage and your autoradio can scan your folder on your storage card.
I don't test but i think it will work.
Greg O is correct, the USB input on car stereos works only for mass storage. WM phones don't support mass storage natively you must use a program like WM5 Storage (which incidentally doesn't work at all with the TC) or CardExport. But its prob better to either go the bluetooth or 3.5mm aux in route. Or if you really wanna do the USB thing, I would probably rather remove miniSD card from the phone and load it on the car using a USB miniSD card reader than use WM5 Storage.
FYI: Your new car won't support A2DP stock, no cars do so currently, so you'll probably want to transfer over the aftermarket radio you buy.
I used a usb mini to 3.5mm jack converter then used a 3.5mm jack to 2 RCA cable to connect to the aux in my stereo.
Becuase the usb mini to 3.5mm jack converter has a mike in as well I can use this setup for hands free use over the car speakers.
You have another solution :
Parrot MK6100 or IO Play ... you play music on your TC and music is transmit to your autoradio via stereo bluetooth A2DP !! No cable !
and you have a great handfree system... I think I will buy one of this system in the future.
I have just fitted an LG LAC7700R CD/ Radio which has a front mounted 3,5MM socket but it also sports Bluetooth A2DP along with other modes. It connects to my Orbit 2 with no problems and plays music without any wires - sounds great, just a shame its not the best looking deck available, but for £124 new its not bad at all - Mke

I bought this one:
http://cgi.ebay.nl/a15-3-5mm-Stereo...ryZ80085QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
works excellent with the TC and not expensive.
I posted a reply to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450197 because it also talks about such an adapter, but I thought I would post a new thread for the phone that I actually have.
I'm looking for a extUSB to 3.5mm adapter, but not the common kind that allows you to plug in stereo headphones or has a microphone built inside the adapter. I'm looking for an adapter that allows you to plug in stereo headsets with in-line microphones. These headsets are designed for iPhones and BlackBerrys and has a 3.5mm connector with an extra ring to support the microphone, and I'm hoping to find an extUSB adapter that supports 3.5mm connectors with three rings so the microphone would work. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? Thanks.
I use this one. It's kind of big but it is the only i can find that I am able to use my iphone headphones with inline mic. After cupcake came out the adapter stopped working but is now working with cyanogen's rom. I would love to find another smaller one that will work with an inline mic.
Thank you so much flowidc for confirming that such a thing actually exists! Please keep me up to date on your quest to find a smaller version of the adapter.

mine never broke. only time it didn't work was in OTA cupcake
I have this same HTC usb to stereo with mic adapter and have used it with Cyan 4.04, Cyan 41x, and all the Hero Roms and had no problems. I use both Blackberry earpieces w/ mic and a cheapo earpiece w/ mic. I like way better than the regular HTC usb adapter and earbuds.
I found it on Ebay, I offered the guy $5 and he accepted my offer. Here is the link

this might be a stupid question, but would the HTC Multifunction Audio Adapter allow you to use a headset that comes with a mic, or would you have to use a earpiece along with an inline microphone?
thanks

You just use a headset that has a built in mic.
*edit*
Nevermind, same thing already posted but for much less...
Try this instead

Great adapter and good build quality too (it has rubbery coating on the cable and it doesn't feel/look cheap unlike some adapters with this style). Great for driving headset since it already has built-in mic. You can use any headphones you want, even though I think the original pair that comes with it performs quite well. The downside is that there's no manual volume control on it, but I can live with that.
Dream not of inline microphones...
I got the OEM adapter as well, but on my ADP1, it doesn't fully work;
I can charge, but the 3.5 and 2.5 jacks are dead. They neither work as outputs or inputs. If I plug an EXtUSB to 3.5 adapter into the EXTUSB headset port on the OEM adapter, the phone's microphone is disabled.
I really want an adapter that can be used to connect, via 3.5 wire, to the car stereo, and still be able to use the phone's microphone, or be able to plug in an external microphone for hands-free use.

I have a similar setup, I discovered yesterday on the way home a way to get audio through the 3.5mm jack. This is a convoluted way, but it did work.
1. I had my OEM adapter plugged in
2. I plugged in my OEM headset to the headset jack
3. I plugged in the 3.5mm adapter into the 3.5mm jack
4. Started the music player
The sound came through both the headset and the car radio, unplugged the headset and the sound continued to play through the radio. Once the 3.5mm jack is unplugged, the process will need to be repeated. I hope this helps.

Hi all,
Can the TP2 support headphones from the iPhone? By that, I mean controlling the phone and mic coming from the 3.5mm jack?
If so, can anyone suggest a set of buds that work well?
Thanks1
Well, I answered my own question today. iPhone headset plays back audio, phone calls, but the mic does not work.
So we're still left with the question: what headset will work?
i am using HTC RC E100 as headphone adapter. It's remote controller with 3,5mm jack on it... pretty cool thinngy but with pretty ****y cable (
ditto the HTC E100. Controls plus mic. I soldered a pair of etymotics drivers onto a shorty 6" cable that allows me use with the TP2 (via the E100) or my ipod (via a headphone extension).
Hi I've had an htc HD was looking at HD2 but the TG01 looks a far better option for the amount it costs.
Can someone confirm for me though does this phone have a 3.5mm audio jack - or it that provided only through the converter for the mini-usb ?
if yes to the above is it possible to charge this phone and have a headset connected via 3.5mm ?
reason I want o do this is my car audio has aux in via a 3.5 mm cable and I often used my HD in the car but needed to charge it at the same time.
thanks for any help

Hi,
The TG01 does NOT have a 3.5mm jack; only the micro-USB port. You can however use a uUSB to 3.5mm adapter perfectly OK. Audio quality is excellent.
It is however limited in that currently you cannot charge at the same time. The uUSB standard anticipates the future availability of an external intelligent adapter to control this type of use (eg. car kit); the chips appear to be available to do this, but as yet no 3rd party devices you can buy.
A practical solution is to use a Bluetooth audio adapter with your own earphones (or to feed the car's Aux input) - something like the Sony Ericsson range. Or simply have a spare battery available.
There is more information here and here about connecting via uUSB.
that's really helpful, thanks for that
