Trinity, Alpine and Calls... - P3600 Accessories

Hi guyzzz
I connected my p3600 with my alpine car stereo...
Sound quality is amazing, and trinity can manage great even with tomtom and WMP!... very good but... when i have a call, i can hear very well from my car speaker but the other side can't hear me my Trinity don't continue to use the internal microphone. I'm quite sure it's a trouble by "audio jack to htc usb" converter: every post i read i found only Y cables (audio and input power)... mine is 3 way: http://www.gpsforless.co.uk/product_details.php?id=7920
Or maybe a rom trouble? i'm using Bepe's 0.79 WM6...
does exist a cab file witch forces trinity to keep using internal microphone always??

Transfer Sound to Buletooth Headset?

Only when you receive or make a call, the voice then, will be transferred to the buletooth headset. My question is: is it possible to active it at other time other than makeing call? Thus we can use our Voice Dial softwares and listen music from XDA II.
It only can transfer the voice during the phone call to BT headset. I think O2 need to modify the Bluetooth driver to support more function on BT section (like iPAQ PPC, compaq updated the BT Driver to support listen the music on BT Headset).
Hope can heard O2 to modify the BT driver very soon, otherwise my Bt headset for O2 is not very useful !
I think except voice command, there is no missing fuction for using BT headset right now, since the quality of the speaker is horrible for listen music.
I really don't know why everyone asking for listen MP3 with BT Headset with XDA2. Is that people really enjoy listen music with one ear and low qaulity?
The XDA II has the ability to automatically answer a call after a variable number of rings to be set. However, I believe that this option only functions with the headset plug installed and then probably the BT headset won't work. Or does anyone has another idea?
Is it possible to change the register, so you can automatically transfer the call without having the plug in?

Well some people would like to have audio via Bluetooth to be able to hear Tomtom navigator over the speakers ?
Also, the SPEAKER of the XDA might be bad, that doesn't mean the audio out is bad. With a good speaker or headset quality could be al lot better...
If you use the XDA Adaptor Jabra kit for the XDA1 in the earphone socket it works fine, but if you use the headset with the direct bluetooth connection, then it doesn't.
Bluetooth Music ?
I believe that the bandwith of a Bluetooth Audio connection is far to limited to support anything resembling HiFi, not much point in listening to MP3 music that way.
For TomTom, or my Korean Language MP3 tutorial files, it should be fine though.
Luckily, the speaker is far louder than on my IPAQ 5450 going on sale, so I don't really need external speaker for TomTom.

Obvious, your not useing any of the build-in BT functions are you .
You're just getting wired audio out from the XDA/MDA. You could do that with the XDA I also, i didn't buy and XDA II for that !

Hear the mp3 at bluetooth earphone

Hi guys,
anybody can help me to find out using the bluetooth earphone hearing the mp3, i'm using the mini xda , also is it possible to dial phone number using the vito voice using the earphone
thanks
I´m looking for a solution of similar problem too. But there seems to be a problem in Windows Phone Edition. The Bluetooth stack works together only with the radio stack. Means it supports only the Headset or the Handsfree profile.
What we need is the support of an Audio profile. In the case of stereo output there is another problem. Bluetooth is too slow to transfer it properly.
Maybe you will find other hints when looking for other key words in the forum: "navi speech output", "widcom bt stack" or "bth tools"
I´m looking for it because I want to hear the output of Navigon on my bike (that would be mono). The widcom bt stack is under construction and may support the profile in the future. The BTH Tools is an addon to the MS BT stack and solves some problems with Headsets and GPS mice. :?
Another solution would be to fit an bt transmitter in the earphone jack and use an separate receiver with normal earphones. But the harware is really fat, because its usually developed for home entertainment. :shock:
i'm getting these
http://www.bluetake.com/products/BT420EX.htm
they work
Okay, I found them too. But with a price of about $ 200,00 they are to epensive. I won´t divide them into parts to fit them into my helmet.

Wired headset and Wired headphones

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!

HTC TyTN AD2P Issues.. ?

Hey Guys,
I have both the MDA Vario with the Mr. Clean rom and the new HTC TyTN.
Both are paired with my Jabra BT-620s stereo headset. (not at the same time)
With the HTC TyTN I have nothing but hickups while playing a simple MP3 from memory.
The MDA-Vario plays the music fluent and witout any hickups..
All things have been tried, distance, open or closed keyboard, etc, etc.
Both units are hard-reset and empty.
I have compared the registry settings on both machines and made the HTC Tytn the same as my MDA-Vario, but the hickups keep appearing. (Some small dword settings altered).
On my qtek 9000 the Jabra works fine without any hickups.
Are there any other users with a stereo bluetooth headset having these problems?
I'm a bit worried since the unit has no 2.5 of 3.5mm headset plug, having a BT stereo headset was my saviour.. :-(
Thanks,
Rudi
I am using my TyTN with a Platronics 590A stereo headset and I ma not having any issues.

Hi,
You said you are using the tytn with the 590A plantronics bluetooth headset and no problems? you are telling me the sound quality is good---even when it's with drums and bass? and you have no hiccups? did you alter any settings?
I am using PLantronics 640 (mono) and it is all good
I have a cab file in the TYTN forum that you may download and try (it improves the quality settings (and disables voice command) but in the thread I have written the regsettings that you may wanna take a look at ...
If you, after you changes the settings, feel that it is stutteringm, lower the quality setting, from 58 to like 40 or similar then you got longer range but the sound quality degrades a little (in a mono headset it doesn't really matter )

Unfortunately, as has also been pointed out in my latest A2DP / AVRCP compatibility-related article ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=279459 ), some A2DP headphones are not compatible with some PDA models. For example, my 590A isn't compatible with the x51v and the HTC Universal and the A2DP on the HTC Wizard is pretty ****ty ... (fortunately, I too have the hx4700 to listen to music)

How I integrated my Trinity into my car

Hi all -
I have an older Audi a4 with the factory Concert/Bose radio. I replaced the CD changer input with one of these:
http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?g=50900&i=581DFVW&tp=1672
This allows me to input audio to my car radio using RCA-type connectors. I then got one of these:
http://www.cablestogo.com/product.asp?cat_id=2009&sku=03178
that lets me plug into a 1/8 jack and send the audio to the RCA jacks. I then got:
http://www.ppc4you.com/pages/13635.html
which allows me to pluf the 1/8" plug into my Trinity. I didn't use this exact one, but mine is similar to this one. Don't use the 1/8" converter that is in the form of a single solid piece, only use the ones that have a short length of wire between the two ends. The solid ones do not stay in properly. Also, by using the Y connector, I can both plug my Trinity into my stereo as well as plug in a regular 12v lighter power converter and power it. I then finished it off with the ProClip/Brodit cradle:
http://www.proclipusa.com/home/home.aspx?afid=42&admkt=670ca577
Everything works great! Once I have it all hooked in,
1.) I can play MP3's through my car stereo (useful)
2.) TomTom directions also go through my car stereo, and the music is slightly muted making directions easier to follow (very useful)
3.) Best of all, I tried calling my girlfriend (while the Trinity was in the cradle, playing MP3's through my stereo), and a.) her side of the conversation came through my car speakers, with the music muted, and b.) she said she could hear me just fine (but a little loud), which tells me the Trinity continued to use the internal microphone and amplified my voice the same way it would when set on speakerphone!
So, I now have the equivalent of in-dash navigation, integrated cellphone, and MP3 player. And I can take it with me when I leave the car! This is exactly why I bought this phone in the first place. What surprises me is that it actually worked!!! <grin>
Mike
Thanks for sharing your setup!
Good on ya!!
I share a similar story.
I drive a Mazda 3.
I installed a chip at the back of the stereo so that it allows an audio auxiliary input into my car stereo.
I then bought a 3-in-1 adaptor, car charger and mic adaptor from ebay.
This is so that I can place my craddle and phone further away, while having the mic externalised and stuck near my dashboard.
So in effect, same deal! GPS navigation + mp3 player while charging, calls get accepted no problem, and make calls via voice speed dial. Absolutely loving it.
Hey guys,
You should check out my set up, I have my Trinity on a GPS holder (suction cup), my trinity is then connected to a device like this:
http://www.oo.com.au/MP3_Player_Car_Modulator_FM_T_P5477C75.cfm
It accepts USB drives to play MP3's through the FM Transmitter, however I used the USB port to power my device, and the 3.5mm port (this allows you to plug in other devices and play through the device via FM) goes to my Bluetooth handsfree (i-Tech Radio Clip).
From here I have an ultimate wireless solution apart from the recharging, however Bluetooth really takes a lot of memory and slows the Trinity, however music plays and Tomtom works! no issues with that, the Radio Clip has remote functions so I can change music while Tomtom is still on, I don't have to minimise Tomtom and go to WMP to change music, I just do it on my Bluetooth device.
However this isn't a perfect solution, as Bluetooth really takes a lot of memory
I looked into using an FM transmitter approach, but there are a lot of FM stations around where I drive, so finding a clear channel gets to be a pain. Also, I'm stupidly picky when it comes to audio quality, which is better using a wired solution rather than the FM solution. Looks like a good apprach though!
hey guys
I bought a £50 car stereo from Lidl
which has a usb port
superb
x
In most cases with FM Transmittors and it depends on the FM Transmittor, it usually dominates the FM Channel, so if you had it on say 104.1 in which in Australia is 104.1 Today FM as long as the Transmittor is nearby and close to your aerial it is all good!
But yeah, I feel that bluetooth and FM Transmission can cause quality lose in Audio, however sometimes I can't tell the difference, I have the USB to 3.5mm converter and I was dumb enough not to find the USB and 3.5mm unit, which was available at that time, but oh well, alls well ends well.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...item=160180673140&_trksid=p3984.cWON.m313.lVI
I bought this one and works great, it has everything I need, but when I connect it to my stereo, the music has no bass. Still have to figure that one out. Any ideas?
I have a small 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter, then connect that to one of those tapes with 3.5mm jack. It works great on my PSP, but with my phone the bass is gone. I have 1.23 with GPS and WM5. I have to try different player (Using WMP) and the HTC equalizer & audio manager.
Anyway, I love the setup, everything is together into a cool device.

Hey! Exactly the same setup I had with my old Magician! I had glued the 2,5mm jack to the Brodit holder, so it would connect power and audio at the same time. It was a treat to use!
However, now I have a Sony BT2500 Bluetooth car radio and don't need no connectors (besides USB power) any more.

i'm planning to buy a new radio with bluetooth audio streaming capabilities for my Trans Am.
probably this radio:
