How to play music from TD on Car Audio - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Accessories

I used to play my music from my sony ericsson on my car audio with an adaptor that connects wirelessly to the car radio. Selects the same frequency on both and I can listen from the car speakers, music stored in the phone.
Is there anything similar for HTC Touch Diamond?

Just buy a Y connector from Diamond's sub to 3,5 mm and you can use the same transmitter. This one will work:

Thanks.
But is there one with the sony ericsson adaptor instead of the 3.5mm socket? I am having this: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/mmr-70?cc=sg&lc=en

Check out the Motorola t 505. it is a bluetooth handsfree device that can streem your music to your car stereo using a very strong fm transmitter as well as your phone calls. Works really nice for me.

Get something like this to replace the SE one you have. Doubt you will be able to find an adapter for yours to fir the Diamond.

Anything out to play Music on Phone thru Car Stereo?

I was just wandering if there is anything I could buy out here that would let me play my music stored on my phone through my car's stereo. I have a 2002 Honda Accord without bluetooth. So If there a cord or something (similar to like an Ipod adaptor used in car steroes).
Just wandering cause right now my Car's CD player isn't working properly and not really wanting to buy a new Radio for my car.

You got a Link to the 1 you use? And how's the quality....
If you gat an fm transmitter, get one with smart scan. Smart scan will find the best frequency and set it for you. It saves a lot of head ache and frustration

Link would be beautiful! I know what you talking about tho, because I had an original Ipod back in the early 2000's and the FM Transmiter was a headache with it.
Just use Y cable with audio out and plug into the aux in of the car stereo... that is what I do! I have a cradle (in my '97 Honda Civic 1.8VTi) and I set the phone with g-profile to automatically start/close Mortplayer when I plug it in/off... awesome!

Hey, what about those Cassette Adaptors? Any1 know if that actually works with the Diamond?
I bought a Pioneer radio that will stream audio through Bluetooth. It's been one of the best things I have done to my truck. It syncs up for handsfree calls and audio.

Remote control with headphones

On my previous phones diamond and hero i've used the HTC RC E100 remote. It was quite handy, allowed me to control the music player without getting the phone out of my pocket, and the best thing was i could just use my own headphones!
Unfortunatly it has a mini-usb connector. Now that the desire uses a micro USB connector i am looking for something similiar.
Control for music, volume, phone (incl. mic) and where i can plug in my own headphones.
I just love those in ear headphones and don't want to use the ones that came with the desire.
Does anybody know about a remote that would fit my desire and my needs?
Thanks everyone!

Maybe something like these: http://www.lgmobileshop.co.uk/go/ac...10m?NAVID=2DE6D616-3005-BC57-7F4D79DFC6BE490B
Not sure how good/bad they are in terms of quality.

The Desire uses a standard micro USB (5-pin micro-USB 2.0) connection, I am just thinking whether or not the Desire even supports audio through the USB...
As far as I know, the Nexus One uses a standard Micro-USB connector, which has no audio support. The only way to listen through an amp is Bluetooth or the headphone jack.

thank you for the provided information. as the nexus one and the desire are very similar, i guess the desire will miss the audio support via usb as well. in all other phones where audio via usb was supported, HTC has used a non standard usb port.
i will keep on searching for a remote that plugs in via the headphone jack. if someone has an idea
cheers,

I think I have a solution.
Jabra BT3030 bluetooth headset. A2DP and AVRCP so you get your stereo sound and also utilise audio controls. Plus it has a 3.5mm jack so you can plug in whatever headphones you want.
Google it. I've got one on the way.
I've been looking for head phones too, and these look like the best offer so far. I am a bit worried about the blue tooth running down the battery though. But let me know how you find these. If all the buttons work with the desire I'll probably get myself a set.
I've been using my Jabra BT3030 and the controls do work. There is a small time lag between pressing a button on the Jabra and it responding.
One good thing I found about the phone (with or without headphones) is that the volume control on the phone works even when the phone has gone to sleep. On my HD2 that didn't happen and it really annoyed me.

So how is the Jabra overall? Worth buying? I've been reading the amazon reviews and some issues have been raised, like the buttons not working with music after you get a call. Do the volume buttons work, and how is the sound quality? Lastly, how bad is it on the battery?
Thanks in advance.

i think i will give it a try, the only thing that worries me is the fact that i would have another thing to charge. I was also thinking about soldering a headphone jack into the standard htc remote that came with the phone. i will keep you up to date.

these look interesting, i've been thinking about looking for some headphones with music controls too...
how is the sound quality with the jabra bt3030, is it just as good as having headphones plugged into the phone?
does running bluetooth hammer the phone battery?
yea i like the look of it, the ability to skip tracks without whipping ur phone out seems great. that always annoyed me with the iphone.. but as i listen to music for hours on end at work (Without a charger handy), i wanna know how much the BT will effect battery life?
id imagine it would decline pretty quickly ?
I have a Jabra BT 3030 which I used extensively with my G1 because I hated carrying around a MiniUSB to audio jack lead.
However I haven't even tried it with my Desire, like someone said its just another thing you need to remember to charge, and as the Desire has a headphone socket (and a micro usb) it would mean carry two leads, or an adaptor to keep them both charged.
That said the Jabra has a fairly decent battery life as long as you remember to turn it off when your not using it.
The sound quality is perfectly acceptable for listening to music unless your a real audiophile, though its obviously not as good as a direct connection to the phone.

Heh. Arrowed.
I use a pair of Sony DR-BY20NX Bluetooth headphones with my desire. headphone battery life is 11hrs.it also has audio controls and can answer call.
fairly cheap but discontinued and becoming hard to find. well worth it though.

I was in CPW last week and the guy who was serving me also had a desire, he was using the Nokia Bh-214 (iirc), its a bluetooth remote with a 3.5mm plug. I tried it out and it sounded good, it has full controls including volume. Its around £40 and available
Also, I have been searching about and found the Sony MW-600 its a bluetooth remote with a 3.5 mm jack, it also comes with headphones and has a built in FM radio. Also has full controls, its around £40 and not out till May.
Personally I am going to wait till the Sony one is out, it has positive reviews and i trust Sony more when it comes to music and the like. Just annoying having to wait!
I am using a cheap BT A2DP, and it works very well. It can be used as BT handsfree or stereo earphone, also has a remote to skip and back the track, that works fine in TuneWiki (but it not for HTC player). The quality of the sound is still far below my KOSS earphone though... but for 26USD and free delivery that thing is really a good deal.
This is the link, but I just found out that is sold out at this moment.

They have another one, almost the same spec but I don't know whether it works as good as the other one.

[Q] Is there any way I can connect my phone to my car's speakers?

I'm don't want to make a lot of music CDs for my car, I was wondering if there is any way I can connect my phone's mp3 player to the car speakers?
Does your car have an aux input? (typically two inputs - white and red), or possibly even jack input.
No idea :|
I only know of that "input" that fires cigaretes where you can connect the mini usb charger for the desire
I have a peugeot 307
Edit: nvm i checked on the net and it seems i have neither of those inputs. Just a simple CD player and fm radio.
Any other way?

so, do you not have a cigarette lighter input? you really should do lol. what car do you have?
you have a few options though.
if you don't have an aux input or anything like a headphone jack sort of input then you can get Belkin FM transmitter. I've just done a quick amazon search and one has come up specifically for desire, which could be good - one good review on amazon. However, I've never tried it.
Specifically for Desire: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Generation-...GTAI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1292787497&sr=8-1
If not, try the Belkin FM transmitters. There's a few different types, mainly for iPod/iPhone which are called iTrips. But obviously, don't get that if its for your Desire. Just search for Belkin FM Transmitter and make sure it has a headphone jack not an iPhone/iPod connection.
Word of warning, FM Transmitters work on the principle that you set the frequency on the 'gadget' then tune your FM Radio into that frequency on the car. Best way to do it, out of past use, is to have it right next to the radio and use the volume controls on the phone more than on the radio itself.
If you don't have a cigarette lighter, you can get one without it which will work, but not as well.
Hope this helps.

Bluetooth carkit with aux inputs is the way to go mate (3.5mm plug and iphone plug are pretty much standard these days), whilst you're at it get a suction screen mount too. Permanent handsfree!!

A stereo with aux-in slot should be more than enough tho (bt ones are a little more expensive), you can grab one with less than 80$.
cheap solution
my car player has AUX in therefore i just connect a 3.5mm Stereo Audio Cable Male-Male (1-Meter) cable and connect the player and my HTC Desire. Its so far good and clear.
I had a Peugeot 307 and it had an AUX in 3.5 socket, it was in the center of the car between the seats on the back of the console bit not on the stereo it's self.

FM wireless transmitter
Hi there
Depending in which country you are you could by a small FM transmitter that you plug into the Desire and listen through your car FM radio.
They are permitted in the UK, but not in many other countries. I got mine from TK Maxx... (hahaa!) for £9.99 and the sound in my car is almost as good as my cd player!
Go to Amazon, Ebay... theres plenty there!
My head unit unit syncs with my phone via bluetooth so I play music that way.
On previous phones/stereos I had an rca to 3.5mm cable that I ran from the phone to thee aux input on the back of the head unit.

Apt X music/phone audio to aux device

I did not see this listed here so I though I would let you all know about a nice device that will let you stream music and voice to your car using your aux port. I set this up in my car and love this device. I now have hand free voice calls in my car thanks to this device.
Voice - when you get a call the audio will come through your car speakers. The mic picks up your voice very will.
Sounds - The music quality sound great using this a phone with apt x support. I now only use my phone for all my music in may car. You an also use any app in your car. Google Music, Pandora .. ext.. will work in your car.
Just wanted to share this with you all. Best 40 bucks I have very spent.

Thanks for your input
I didnt have a bluetooth capable radio until now so I actually dont know how it works. Does this mean I wont be able to answer calls and listen to music simply by pairing the two devices through bluetooth?

I think you can still use this just for audio and your raido for your bt calls. I know i cant be set like what for cars that have bt built into them. You may want to try out it. The audio quality for music is great. A lot better then just using standard bt
This accessory thing is awesome. I replaced my FM transmitter after I got a new car with an AUX port. Sound quality is infinitely better and best yet, this thing is very discrete, you can hide it on the dash behind the steering wheel so that it's in conspicuous. It matches my dash so it blends in

One question: if the car radio has a Aux In port why dont you just connect the S4 headphone jack to it, instead of using that device?

Because this thing isn't just a transmitter, it also has a mic so you can take calls. It's a handsfree device as well.

If you have a bluetooth enabled car, there is no reason for you to get this. But not all cars with AUX also have bluetooth. My car doesn't.

My car has Bluetooth for calls. And aux in which I use for music via the headphones jack. But this device is good because it means I can get rid of the headphones cable and use Bluetooth instead. Much tidier. And good quality audio too.

You still need a cable. There is a cable that is directly connected to the receiver. It's pretty long too, I had to wind it up.

Connecting to 2 Bluetooth devices A2DP and car headset

Hello, my car stereo has inbuilt Bluetooth headset however it does not support A2DP streaming for music. I hate having my car dash cluttered with wires and plan to buy a BT A2DP streamer for my aux connector in my car to stream music. Can the nexus 5 connected to 2 Bluetooth devices, ie, the A2DP device to stream music and also my car BT headset?

Yes it works for me. In the blue tooth setup screen set the car adapter to media audio only, and the headset to phone audio only. Then they should play nice together.

Thanks for the confirmation of this being possible. Any recommendations on what adapter to purchase? I have had a look on eBay and there are plenty to choose from however my concern is that the lower priced units are cheap for reason. I am willing to spend a bit more to get better sound quality
