Has anyone gotten a USB Cradle with Audio yet? Expansys seems to have them on pre-order, but it looks like the above site is selling them.
I bet this would work nicely in the car since it presumably has a 3.5mm audio jack in the back and a microphone on the front (that works?!)
Combined with a bluetooth GPS and MS Voice Command, this should be all set!

im thinking of using a 2.5mm - 3.5mm adapter and use a carkit (the cassette tape that plugs into the earphone slot). will that work?
not 100% sure what you mean but i sure havent seen any 2.5m to 3.5m converters which can be used for anything but output
and a headphone slot on a tape player would well be output and not input
Perhaps you're referring to the tape-alike thingie that looks like a tape but has a mini-jack for audio-input?
I would assume that would work. If the "tape" works in your car stereo with input from the jack, this will also work.
Worked fine for me with the original xda (both the 2.5 to 3.5mm adaptor and the cassette adapter). I used it to listen to radio comedies that I had recorded as mp3s and WMAs.
With the xda2 I had problems though. My 2.5 to 3.5mm adaptor was too bulky to fit snugly against the xda2 and it wouldn't stay fully in place. Even when I held it in place I found it difficult to get sound from both left and right. Might be better with a different adaptor (bought mine from Maplin a few years ago).
2.5mm > 3.5mm
I mentioned this in another post but if you can solder try a cheapo heandfree adapter from the pound shop / dollar store. Make sure it's one with the 3 black rings not 2 cut the cable before the mic and stick a 3.5mm stereo socket on with costs about 50p
I have tried everything, anything and had to make my own.
The problem is thy: you either get a 2 channel mix to both ears, left channel in both ears, right channel in both ears, or sound in only one lughole.
I had to crank open my handsfree and solder in a 3.5mm jack. Works beautifully with my Shure E2C's - very happy.
Just bought a bluespoon chameleon and now i use that a bit of the time, and don't really use my xda as an mp3 player.
Before I bought my bluespoon, I would have desoldered the microphone and attach a 3.5mm jack for that - for a tie-clip mic.
I made my own converter, if you buy the 2.5mm jack plug from maplins (the black rounded plastic one) it needs a little bit of sanding and it fits perfect.
In answer to the orginal question, yes that will work fine
thanks for the replies guys. will post feedback when i get this thing to work.
Hi everyone,
Is there an in-ear earbud replacement for the wired stereo headset that come as a standard accessory with the Diamond?
I do not have small ears by any means, but the standard headset has always been uncomfortable and I much prefer the in-ear variety.
Thanks!
bump ?
hi ive seen some for sale on ebay different to the standard Diamond jobbies ive got to say after moving from sony ericsson plug in headset the htc is very poor
i hate the button that doesnt actually disconnect the call just place it on hold
scan the bay there are headsets available
good luck
RR
Another thing would be to get an audio extension cable for Diamond and use any of 2.5 or 3.5mm headsets...that Sennheiser MM50 for iPhone is good for sure and it should work with that setup.
Bought one of these a few weeks ago and am loving it!

I have it hooked up to my JVC KD-R530 receiver in my '03 Santa Fe via the REAR AUX input.
Scosche wants $80, but I found it at Wal-Mart for $35.
Sound quality (music) is just as good, if not better, than when I had my phone hooked up via 3.5mm cable to AUX directly. Also does a nice job with voice quality (phone). People can hear me clearly and no more "echo" from my stereo speakers either.
Just thought I'd share, as I found it to be a nice solution to those of us who drive older cars without Bluetooth integration, and don't want to spend $200+ for an aftermarket head unit with Bluetooth (which I've read mixed reviews about pairing ability/sound quality with anyhow).

I've got a jvc khd44. It also has rear aux in addition to the front aux. I may hav to give this a shot.
Thanks.

Hello fellow 6p users.. I'm thinking of upgrading either my Xiaomi Piston 3 or my AKG 518 headphones to something at the range of around 100€ .
But given the not so great audio quality of the 6p ,i was wondering if it's actually worth it.
I would be very grateful If you could advise me with some solid choices, I'm thinking at the moment the Momentum Sennheiser, either IEM or Over air.. Something with 3 buttons (play/pause and volume control and inline mic) that actually work.
Over air will not be that good, all the air will distort the audio
on a serious note Im using Shure SE215 with mine. as you know audio on 6p isnt great, Viper Audio is a must if you are serious about audio. Im using a headphone amp as well
Shot in the dark but I have these and loe them. Everyone that listens to them has been impressed with the quality.

I'm not sure if this is on topic enough but I've noticed Bluetooth overall is very subpar and can be prone to interference (frequent cut outs when the phone's in my pocket or if I make a very short trip to the next room). This mainly applies to my headphones which have worked fine on several other devices. Of course this would be one of the only times I keep it in my pocket--when using headphones cutting grass, walking,etc.
I'm using viper. The volume and general sound quality are fine, not great be meets my standards. Only bring it up in case anyone happens to know how to improve it.
M50x for sure. Cant be beaten for the money
Wow,no sleep does bad things when typing,i clearly needed some air..
Back on subject, i would love to get M50x but i can't find a good deal either on Greece (my home country) or in Italy that I'm currently for vacation.. Cheapest i can find them is 150€ , which I'll might have ti spend in order to get a good over the air headset.. How is the build quality of the M50?
Thanks for the Bluetooth one,but i prefer wired headphones..
As for viper4android, i haven't rooted yet but i think i will soon in order to improve audio..

@tagari m50x are greatly built, just bought a pair not too long ago. great set of headphones.
I'm not sure if you can get these in Greece, but they are iem that have a built inline dac/amp. The caveat is that it doesn't use the 3.5mm audio jack. It uses the usb-c port, via an adaptor. I got them for my N5 and now use them with my N6p. Works well and you can boost the volume up to the point that it's uncomfortably loud...

Does anyone know a good adapters that is compatible with PH-1?. I won't buy the original one, It's crazy expensive with the shipping fee since I live in Thailand. I lost mine a week ago. now I'm using Airpods (which still have some connections problems)
or if you have a good USB C earphones that would be great too!
It would make my life easier if the product is from AliExpress
I miss my wired connection T_T

I'm also interested in a response for this
This is what I'm planning... Get the USB Type C headphones from OnePlus. (or Xiaomi or any brand)
This is the only middle path I can think of.
The type C to 3.5mm dongles don't work unless they have DAC.
The wireless ones are crazy expensive.
Whatever you buy - MAKE SURE IT HAS DAC.

Xiaomi dongle doesn't work, also Ugreen and every cheap dongle.
You need DAC in the dongle, you can buy Google and maybe OnePlus, I'm not sure about OnePlus
I have the Google USB C Pixel Buds. They sound good for the price and they fit well, although they don't block any outside sounds at all. The Google Assistant function works with the Essential Phone, too.
I have this one from aliexpress, quite decent for the price and works well except for the microphone which never worked for me.
I just got a Google USB-C headphone adapter, and I can confirm that it works perfectly with the Essential phone, too.
if you looking fro headset adapter for essential phone, I have 2 with DAC, am in Manila, Philippines
You know they now sell Bluetooth adapters for headphones?
Now you can take any regular 3.5mm headphones, plug them into an adapter (which is about the size of a regular volume control on Bluetooth headphones) and you have Bluetooth headphones.
ONN (Walmart in house brand) had this adapter for $10. It acts just like a normal Bluetooth headphone in that you charge the adapter, but you can use the adapter with any speaker or headphone you have so it is more convenient.
Basically they all look like this https://m.aliexpress.com/item/40001...4XzpLsTpr1hzjlQzwMbdAtr4y9y8FBGf1567841536673
I can confirm that the Libratone Q Adapt in-ear earphones work perfectly with the Essential Phone. They sound great, and I love the noise cancelling feature.

I bought the wally world adapter 'cause it was in clearance section for $6. It sucks. The audio is horrible. I am comparing it to other bluetooth adapters and 3.5mm port, same earbuds.
I highly recommend the best buy house brand insignia adapter. $30 the battery lasts around 7-8 hrs, and can be used while charging. I cant stress how good the audio is. I havent used it on a set of big cans, but it drives my earbuds loud and clear. Great bass, great mids, and great highs. I mostly listen to audio books, but in between, i'll fire up some dubstep or stoner rock, even brass quintets.
