Its cool. I'm testing same setup have u had any problems with auto connect bluetooth?
Not problem. . But I need push a sony radio for connection bluetooth App remote. .
I have call a Sony for this .. but need manual input..
Any one interested in this check out proclips (Google them). A non invasive easy way to install a tablet in the car. Works great with the Ford Sync system but anything with Bluetooth would be good. I've had iPad's, Note tabs, and now the 8.4 in my Fusion.
8.4 in my Jeep
Here's my setup in my Jeep. I got a custom mount that sits over the stock stereo. It slides in an out and locks. When I want it more secure, I slide it out and I have a lock box below my seat.
I ordered a ground loop adaptor to fix the hum when it's being charged and plugged into AUX. I'm currently shopping for a DAC that I can connect to a charge enabled OTG cable. The best I've seen is LAVA SimulCharge USB 1 but I wish it had more ports. Anyone find anything better?

I have the lava adapter works pretty good. U can buy a 1 male to 3 female USB adapter for more ports. Make sure u have a good 2.1 amp charger and cable for the lava or it won't charge to good. I use a official Samsung car charger and the USB cable that came with the tab pro gets about 1000ma with my DAC hooked up. I use the Behringer uac 202 USB dac best for the money. Has optical also.. No ground loops or noise with optical.

Thanks. I was hoping I could get a 1/3 USB adaptor for more ports, but I didnt know if it would work. I have a two different 2.1 amp chargers now, and it barely gives any juice to it. It says max 1200 or so but it bare;y gets 3-400. It keeps the screen on and it drops a % every 5-10 min. I looked at the Behringer uac 202 but I'm connecting to a stock deck that goes have RGA inputs so I'm going in through an AUX jack. I could try an optical to headphone cable I suppose.
The ground loop cable I got killed the hissing noise. Is the UAC 202 a noticeable difference worth the extra cost and time setting it up? I'm concerned it will slow down charging even more. Does it suck up a lot of juice?
The sound difference is huge with the 202 dac even if u use the headphone out jack. Alot more clarity and output. doesn't suck much juice at all. U should invest in a Samsung Branded car charger most chargers say 2.1 amps but put out half.
Thanks, I just purchased the 202 and the lava so I'll be able to test this out this weekend.
I couldnt find the general samsung car charger that didn't have a cord already attached though.
Now I just need to find a USB backup camera solution and my car setup will finally be complete.

Goodluck. The 3 port one looks pretty large. Does that function differently than if we were to buy a 1 to 3 USB adaptor?
I have my 1 port working correctly. Strangely whenever I use the Lava adaptor it lists it as 100% charges right away, but if I unplug the charger it drops back down to whatever it really is. Not a huge deal, but annoying to not see the accurate battery level when plugged in.
The 3 port adapter is supposed to be better with charging and has a button for charge only wich is cool. And according to lava there is no power feedback from the tablet to the the adapter. The tablet port keeps my usb dac on even when I unplug power With the one port. And I'm sure that the 3 port will have no problem with a dac hard drive and mouse (hopefully will let everyone know when I get it in a week or so).the one port would have a power supply issue with all 3 devices.

Hi all,
As per subject...
Anyone know if such as cable is available?
I was planning on getting the new 3-1 Adaptor for the TYTN to make use of the 3.5mm jack and charging feature in my car.
The thing is, the cable for this adaptor is very short and cannot be hidden easily when in the car. So, I was thinking of using an extension cable of some sort, so the adaptor could be more easily hidden elsewhere under the centre console.
Many thanks.
USB Stupidity
Hi,
Affraid i didn't find anything either, and wanted to do the same thing.
I resorted to buying the cable from expansis and "Adapting it my self"
The project was fairly simple, and if your happy with a soldering iron and a multimeter you should be fine.
I now have a small connector on my dash that will disapears under the dashboard to a breakout box. All i basicly did was chop off the box that has the two female connectors in it, extend the wire with an old cut up parralel printer cable (multicore and was lying arround) and then terminated in a project box from maplins.
This has two headphone sockets, (audio out stero, and mic in) as well as a USB socket to charge the phone. (the plan was to have the USB socket be usable for data... but that bit went a bit wrong...
Still from the testing i have done, i now have tomtom and WindowsMedia mp3 play back comming through my car stero, and my VarioII reports to be charging. Havn't had a chance to test it on a long drive yet, i think i might still need a beefier 12Volt to USB adapter.
If anyone want more info on what i did, i'd be glad to help.
here are some pics, sorry v bad Q....
I don't seem to see any pics?...
Ooops...
here you go
Seems good to me- as long as it all works ok then its a good job.
Always been interesting in making my own adapters/cables but have never tried. Perhaps I should give it a go!

Any news on that extension cable yet; is it available?
i brought one of these and successfully lengthened it with an old peice of printer cable (only multi core cable i had to hand)
i then used an off the shelf diy project box to hide the junction in.
worked very well, but i have since changed to a bluetooth car kit.
the soldering was a little small and working out which wire was which was a bit of a pain, but all in all only took an hour or so to sort out. probably worth it.
(AFAIK my dad is still using the one i adapted.)
sorry to put old post on top !! but own a dimaond and just buy a touch HD !
i a m looking for this kind of cable !!
If someone have info !!
where to buy for exemple ?
thanks in advance !!
how about extending the power cable? seems like that would be easier.

Other option: http://cgi.ebay.com/3in1-11-PIN-Ext...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item3cabfd9d0b
I am looking for a permanent car charger cable to install into my car.
It needs to be a 15' to 20' long with a straight cord for a hidden cable run.
I would like to hook it up to the cars wiring under the dash, run it under the windshield pillar trim to between the headliner and roof then drop out above the rear view mirror. I would then plug it into my car dock this just makes a cleaner look.
I have searched around the net but no luck yet.
Any help would be appreciated.
I haven't seen that, but what you may need to do this this. I did something like it a few years ago with a radar detector
get this or something like it
http://cgi.ebay.com/Belkin-Mini-Uni...Accessories&hash=item3a66d9f61b#ht_643wt_1396
and then a usb cord for the length you want, and attach the power and ground to the cig lighter adapter you can take it apart if you need just make sure you get the + and - right and leave the fuse in there. then tape it up nice with electrical tape and wire it in to the fuse panel to turn on with the ignition. its really not as getto as it sounds.
i just use that adapter and plug it in my back seat lighter and run the cord up by the front seat
I Would just use a cigarette lighter adapter: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...082602&p_id=6765&seq=1&format=3#specification
hidden under the dash, and then plug in one of these:http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10303&cs_id=1030307&p_id=5138&seq=1&format=2
Everything you need to put a 12v cigarette lighter socket under the dash is available at an auto-parts store for <$10.
Why don't you just connect to the wiring that is connecting to the cigarette lighter adapter?
That way it would be 5V, and then you can connect that to a project box, and install a fuse in there, and then put the wiring from that to the usb cable.
I did this about 10 years ago, when I directly connected the radar detector, and lights under the seats controlled by buttons. Was fairly easy to do, depending on how much room you have to work with connecting the wiring.

buy a 12v socket too, get something like this, should be cheap on ebay, then just snip off the male end and stripe the cable so you can tap your car's 12v socket wiring

Just as an FYI, as I see what you are going to do and it is a far better alternative.
A 10'+ cable will not give you full charging voltage at the end of that run. The cable is too long for the small amount of voltage running through it. While it WILL still charge, it will be at a fairly slower rate.
There is a thread in the EVO forums where I was asking cause it was something I noticed and someone who seemed to know what they were talking about when it came to electricity, replied.
I would link it, but been up all night and am getting tired.

as far as I know USB cable can go up to 5m or about 16ft, this length has more to do with data transmission signal quality issue, for straight charging there's no signal at all, so shouldn't be a problem. When you get a chance please post your link, so i can study this some more

Get a 2amp 2 usb car lighter charger from Amazon and 15 or 20' micro usb cable from monoprice.com... Exactly my setup with a exo gear Exomount for my evo to windshield mount.
Sent from my HTC Evo 3D
I got tired of multiple cigarette lighter adapters a while back. I bought a 5A 12V to 5V converter on eBay, and wired it to switched power. It powers my phone, GPS, and Bluetooth audio gateway all from the one little box.
It tools some doing, but I finally got this working perfectly and figured it might help someone out.
I have a 7" DVD/NAV screen built into the dash of my truck. I have always been able to display my Slingbox, Netflix, ripped DVD movies etc from my phone to that screen using HDMI out from the phone to an HDMI SCALER as my truck stereo doesn't have HDMI in and this gives composite connections.
This worked great with my DroidX and Droid Charge, but my new Rezound does not have dedicated HDMI OUT (boo) so I needed an MHL>HDMI ADAPTOR.
the first adaptor I got from htcpedia (htc M490) was defective. When I plugged it into the phone (and the USB power cord) it showed the HD out in the task bar, but nothing showed on the screen and in 30 seconds the adaptor quit completely.
At that point, I ordered the HTC AC M500 12 pin adaptor and that works super. It has both HDMI out and analog audio. I plug the HDMI cord into the scaler for video and a headphone cord hooked into the aux in on my killer truck stereo for sound. The sound is better that way than coming through HDMI.
This setup works AMAZING. I can run anything except the NFL APP to the 7" screen with killer sound.
Don't knock the new port too much, the functionality is awesome.
Here is a link to what all it can do.
I'm not knocking it at all, at first I was because it seemed no matter what I tried I couldn't get it to work.
I had a brand new AC M490 MHL adaptor (the one other posters where recommending), with a brand new very high quality HDMI cable and could not get it to work at all which was extremely frustrating. This was annoying especially in light of the fact that my previous three phones worked perfectly in this setup (although the DroidX did not do HDMI mirroring which was really annoying at times)
Now, with the AC M500 MHL adaptor (which seems more compatible in every way) it works better than any previous setup I had and does it all with just one-plug at the phone end.
The 500 uses the exact same plugs for both the phone and the USB power cable as the original Rezound AC charging cable instead of the looser fitting mini USB like the DroidX. Either will work I guess, but one is a loose sloppy fit and the other is a nice snug fit like the OM charging cable.
The 500 also has both an HDMI out and an analog audio out as opposed to the 490 which only gives you the HDMI. I have found this to be an advantage soundwise. I noticed this with both my DroidX and later with my Droid Charge.
I noticed that running both the video and sound through the HDMI cable from the phone produces a noticeably weaker sound than running just the video through HDMI and then the audio out from the headphone jack (or the analog audio out on the adaptor in this case) This gives a much fuller sound with more bass etc. For some reason (I'm not sure why really)
This worked in all my previous setups and continues to hold true with the Rezound.

HTC MHL AC M500 12 pin adapter
I recently got interested in this and bought one from Rakuten, but the audio doesn't work. I tried headset, earbuds, powered speakers. Is the audio port just a 3.5" plug? Maybe I got a bad one. Video works OK though.
I'm also curious that mine says, "9VDC 1.6A" on the back, but our phone chargers are 5V. Sure wouldn't want to burn up my phone. Anybody else's say 9V on the back of it? It doesn't say input or output or max input or anything, just that voltage designation.
Has anyone tried to connect Creative Sound Blaster E5 or Sound Blaster X G5 portable sound cards? It can be a very interesting result.

Sound blaster x G5 DOES work on some android devices
Skip to the end to avoid my long pre-amble. Refer to it if you run into issues using the provided steps though. I picked up a sound blaster x G5 on sale at Best Buy for like seventy bucks and was super stoked to hook it up to my moto G4. No dice and after some research and trying it with a powered otg adapter I abandoned the endeavour. Fast forward 4 months and I finally get around to replacing the broken digitizer on an lg gpad f 8.0 v495. Not the entire LCD mind you, just the broken glass digitizer. First attempt doing this on any device ever and it was every bit as hair raising as you might think. From what I understand this is a pretty obscure tablet but it's got great wifi reception and a full size USB port on top independent of the micro USB charging port on the bottom. I can't be certain but I think this is the key to getting the sound blaster x G5 to act as an external USB dac because by all accounts I have come across this should not work. The v495 runs lollipop 5.0.1 and is rooted. Again not sure if rooting is a crucial part of getting this DAC to run as an external USB dac. It was a hassle getting this tablet rooted and supersu installed. I think it was kingroot I originally used to root it but kingroot is crap imho and I wanted supersu on there which I managed to do after quite a bit of hassle. Apparently doing what I did to get supersu can brick your v495 as not a lot has been done with this tablet in the community as from what I gather it is pretty obscure but I'd be happy to help anyone trying to get supersu up and running. Anyhow what you need to do is get a powered USB hub that takes 5v 2amp external power and plug that into the full size USB port. For me I tried three USB 2.0 hubs with external power between one and two amps of external power, no dice on those ones. Ive tried two different USB 3.0 hubs both with 2 amp power plugged into wall socket or power inverter in a car and both worked, even the Walmart onn brand one meant for use with PS4. So far power banks have not worked and I've tried several. It doesn't always start putting out sound right away and I still don't have it 100% figured out, sometimes it takes some unplugging and plugging back in to get audio output from the G5 but once it's going it doesn't cut out and sounds really, really good at least compared to the fiio k1/a1 combo I was using prior though that is still a good combination especially for the price. I use this in my car with a Belkin rockstar 5-way splitter one line going to fiio a1 headphone amp to the aux jack for car stereo and the other line going directly to a Polk audio home theater subwoofer meant for home theater use plugged into a second power inverter. Odd setup? Yup. Cost effective and great sound? Yup. 3.5mm splitters in my experience are notorious for having the timing be off for different outputs and this has been a huge hassle, I've got several and out of two Belkin rockstars only one with two ports of five sync up evenly. Picked up a foil e07k which has two 3.5mm outputs to solve this but it hasn't arrived yet. Possible both line outs on the G5 may solve this too. I am continuing trying to work out the kinks in this setup to have the G5 start outputting the sound without a bunch of u plugging nonsense and just put picked up a high quality USB 3.0 powered hub and will post any further results I get. Here are the STEPS: 1- plug in power supply to USB 3.0 hub. 2- plug in USB 3.0 hub to full size USB port on top of tablet. 3- plug in a flash drive to USB 3.0 hub 4- plug in the G5 to USB 3.0 hub. If it lights up and stay lit with no flashing of the red X you should be in business. If you get no sound output start unplugging and plugging things back in at some point you should get audio output from the G5. Having the tablet charging simultaneously seems to help but isn't necessarily required. Same with having a flash drive plugged into the hub. You can also try having the flash drive plugged into the full size port on the G5, android will be able to access it in either case. Headphone amp on line out(s) from G5 may also help. I'll be updating after further testing. Also, it's a good idea to program some presets on the G5 by using the software provided for windows and Mac, I ran into bizarre sounding music the first time I got this working on the tablet because the WE settings were all over the place when it came to music. Took some trial and error by is easy to correct.
Try using the ENTER key occasionally.
I've read that some of the usb type C to 3.5 jack adapter are working now with a proper DAC, but I can't find a splitter that works for our HTC's or even for Pixel 2. People mention dongles made by certain companies, but I head to their websites and there's nothing available...
Can anyone help me find a viable splitter to charge and use headphones at the same time? I'm getting desperate, to be honest...
Thanks!
I have also tried several usb type c hubs but could not find one that works with htc headphones unfortunately.
I ended up buying an Bluetooth receiver to plug my headphones into when I need to charge too.
Not ideal but it works for me

Hi guys,
still trying to figure this out. I hope you can help me with this idea. All I want is charge and use headphones at the same time :
If I plug this hub (or similar one) to my U Ultra's usb port https://m.es.aliexpress.com/item/32846535696.html?trace=wwwdetail2mobilesitedetail&productId=32846535696&productSubject=USB-C-Hub-USB-C-HDMI-Ethernet-Adapter-for-Macbook-Pro-Thunderbolt-3-Type-C-Hub
And then use this adapter (with DAC integrated) into the usb c of the hub: https://m.es.aliexpress.com/item/32832480232.html.
Will it work? Or the DAC needs to be placed exactly in the usb out of the phone? I'd really appreciate the help.
For these hubs to provide charging you need to connect the charger in the type c port of the hub which is marked with the lightning sign. To connect the 3.5 mm adapter you will need another adapter from usb type a male to type c female. Such adapters exsist but when i tried to connect the htc type c headphones via the hub and such adapter they were simply not detected by the phone so i doubt that the 3.5mm adapter will also work in such configuration.

That's it, exactly. Take any BT headset you like and can afford, they have the DAC already built in.
