Did a search and couldn't find anything so here goes a simple question: If you have a wired headset that works for the phone. Can you also use it to listen to mp3 or other audio files on the XDA II? Or do u need 2 pieces of equipment to carry around?
:?:
when it's wired it works for both phone and music
but not all wired headsets have mics which work on the xda2
prob because of the wiring differ from phone to phone
thanks I have a wired headset with audio in one ear bud. Then this will work for mp3 files/audio files as well? I will try it right now. Do i need to specify speaker/headphones in the audio system or does it revert to the headset when it is plugged in?
thanks again.
stereo headset but mono sound
Hi there,
I just bought an original O2 XDAIIs headset but realise that I only got mono sound.
I am running WM5 - WWE 2.01a 64 and radio 1.19 on Himalaya.
Is there anything wrong with the software or hardware or do I need a patch for it?
Thanks in advance!
Hi, I have an imate pocket pc with custom wm2005 installed. The question i have is how can i listen to mp3s on a headset? second where can i get the headset ot do this( i live in canada) and third if it is possible...will it use up a lot of battery life and if it does is there a fix?
it's unclear what you request
a bluetooth headset or wires?
normaly any wired headset automaticly
direct all sound to it when connected
also mp3 and if one blank the screen
it dont use that much power
so all the sound will go straight to the headset? k. thanks. But where can i get a set of wired headset cause the imate headset port is too small for normal 3.5mm headset port ( i live in canada). and i didnt understand about the mp3 player part. Iam really srry i didnt explain my question properly earlier. Im bad at explaining.
Hi everybody, i'd like to know if anyone knew how to enable the use of the CRUISE microphone while an external earphone (without microphone) is plugged (with a mini-usb to Jack 3.5mm adapter).
Because my original hand'sfree kit is broken, now i want to use earphones to make calls and use the cruise microphone to speak.
When i am calling, i can hear people with my earphones but they can't hear me because there's no microphone with my earphones, so i would like to make calls with my earphones but using the device's microphone.
Is it possible ?
Sorry if my explaination seems too messy..
Thanks a lot
I used standard earphones and Cruise's built-in microphone without any extra efforts or settings on a standard ROM.
Why you did not just try?
Hi, thank you for you answer, i've tried it but people can't hear me when i talk while adapter+3.5earphones are plugged.
I dont know how to make it, maybe modifying something in the registry ?
If somebody knows anything, can he/she tell how to activate the built-in microphone when an adapter for 3.5jack is plugged ?
Thanks a lot

Is there anything available that will force my HD2 to use the internal mic while a headset is plugged into the 3.5mm socket?
I often use my HD2 to listen to music in my car using a 3.5mm jack to jack cable into the aux in port just near my handbrake which works a charm.
When I get a call the music is interrupted and if I answer it I can hear the caller through my car speakers however they can't hear me as the phone is in headset mode and is expecting a mic to be plugged in.
I don't think it's a simple case of re-routing which mic is used as while that may technically work the caller would be able to hear themselves delayed through my cars sound system. I need the phone to send the mic into speaker mode so it has a detection system that stops the caller hearing themselves but send the output through the headset socket.
I hope that makes sense?
seems strange that it does not working .. i use this way to listen music & gps instructions and it is working ok, with the phone's microphone.. try i different 3.5mm jack (stereo) .. or you have a cooked rom ?
I just tried a different cable and it's working! strange for some reason the HD2 must have thought my cable was headset?
Thanks!
yeah it dosnt work cuz if u look @ the original headset it has 3 lines which meant 2 for the stereo ear pice and 1 for the mic, i have the same prob i dnt like the origenal headset so i use mine which means i have to unplug it every time i get a call, but i think the only way to use good headset with mic is to buy the iphone headset, its the same priciple with a better sound quality of the headset
If your jack has only 3 contacts, the phone can sense there's no 4th one, so there's no mic, and uses the internal mic. If your cable has 4 contacts, it will try to use external mic even if there's actually none.
oooo yeah u r right, lol, jst tried it it work
thnx man
wow, i was just asking myself the same question. i have a pair of sennheiser earphones(without mic), when i take an incoming call the other side cannot hear me most of times. but, sometimes the internal microphone is activated and i can speak using my earphones. this seems a quite random problem, i don't understand. even with skype, sometime i can use earphones, some other time i'm forced to unplug using the loudspeaker...boh...
i want my phone mic since my built in carstero mic is to far away
On a similar note, is it possible to have the internal speaker announce GPS instructions while I'm playing music via Bluetooth?

Hi there,
I've got a simple problem to solve: When in my car, I have my Raphael plugged to the car stereo with a cheap ExtUSB Adapter. The phone recognizes the adapter as a Headset, but I don't have a microphone attached.
When someone calls, I want to use the headset Audio but with the handset microphone.
Is there any easy solution for this? Putting the phone to speaker mode works sometimes, but the phones speaker isn't loud enough for most situations.
thx, h3po
push...
another situation, same problem:
I just bought a cradle for my Raphael which happens to have a built in microphone and a line-out jack, which I do not plan to use. But when I plugin my handset, it goes to headset mode and I cannot hear the ringtone when the phone rings.
I can't believe there's no way to choose the speaker output =/
