I've searched, but can not find an answer to this.
I have one of those little adapters that lets me plug any 3.5mm earplugs into the Touch Pros USB port. There is no mic on the adapter, so when its plugged in, I can not make phonecalls. I was wondering if there is a way to use the built in mic of the TP while the adapter is plugged in?
Thank you
Any ideas? I hope what im asking makes sense?
I´m also wondering
Sorry to keep asking , but id really like to be able to use voice command and make phonecalls while the usb port is in use with the 3.5mm converter.
There is no way to force the TouchPro to use its own mic even when it thinks a headset is plugged in?
No. Buy a stereo headset with mic.
Or if you own a $6xx 3.5mm headphones then buy another USB converter with mic (see pictures below)

I searched eBay for a solution like what you are showing there, since i had a feeling it is what I'd need. I could not find it though. So i came here to ask. Its not that i have expensive headphones, its that i attach an FM transmitter to the 3.5mm port, while driving, and want to be able to still make phone calls and use Voice Command.
I would buy the USB converter with MIC that you pictures if i can find it.
Thanks
EDIT: noticed the picture was from expansys. Found the product, but its 15 euro. A lot more than the 3 euro i payed for 2 of the mic-less ones. Its annoying that i cant turn the TPs mic on for free

I saw you edited your post above. Yes, Seidio and Expansys are normally over-priced their stuffs. The worst here is both of them jump in bed together.
Thanks, the only place i can get it seems expansys.ie. The other two are American shops. (Im in ireland ).
I guess i will have to go for the cable. Still, out of curiosity, there is no way to force Windows Mobile or the TouchPro, or whatever is responsible, to not reroute the mic? It HAS to route both the mic and sound once the 'headset' is plugged in? There is no override somehow? Even if its a hack.

Is it possible? I bought this mini USB to 3.5mm adapter and the description said it was suitable for the S710. Actually, it isn't. So I'd like to know wheter it's possible to force the phone to use the USB-output instead of the speaker.
The phone doesn't detect the headset.
Thanks in advance. I tried to find it on the internet, but that didn't work out. My excuse if I missed something.
I am not actually expert with that but I think, one of audio part's pin is not connected properly, or some part of electronics is missing. I am suspecting pin 9 marked as S - look at ExtUSB pinout).
I was just about to buy one of those adapters, but now I'm hesitant. Is this a common problem with the s710?

Indeed. I also purchased this one today. It seems to have a slightly bigger connector. It's only 2 dollars so the price isn't an issue, but I just want to have it work.
The description should say extUSB to Audio (if it's not extUSB it might not work).
Look if the pins of your phone are dirty or something.
And no, with an extUSB to audio converter this doesn't happen (so not a common problem)!

I don't know, I only got the cable without any description.

This was the one. The default headset works fine.
Look at the USB part if you have 6 little pins in it. If you don't, you haven't ExtUSB converter.
Hi 3lmo,
...the one in your post looks like a normal USB connector. There the 5 pins of the USB are used to transport also the Audio (i.e. audio and USB/charge are not possible at the same time). This is used for some devices like Motorola Razor V3 or differently for BenQ E72.
The ExtUSB from HTC has added to the 5 pins of the USB another 6 on the other side of the plug insert. The original 5 pins are used only for USB purposes - not for Audio which uses the other 6 pins. There is info in the net about the details somewhere. Just take care that you get the extUSB type. The second one you got should work (I have the same from the same vendor).

i9000 version owner here. I was wondering if anyone can confirm that iPhone-compatible headphones, such as Etymotics HF2 or Apple's own In Ear headphones (or even standard iPhone headphones) work or don't work properly on the Captivate.
They do not work properly on the i9000 version of the Galaxy S because he mic and ground in the t/r/r/s jack configuration are crossed.
I understand this to just be standard difference in the way Apple and HTC implement the 3.5mm jack configuration vs Samsung and Nokia, but I thought their might be a chance that it's an international vs US configuration thing with the i9000 vs the Captivate or the Vibrant.
Has anyone tried iPhone compatible headphones with their Captivate?
By compatibility, I mean all features work - mic, sound at proper volume, click to answer. I was able to wire an adapter for my HF2s to the i9000 by crossing the mic/ground, but it would be nice to know US model of the phones do or don't need such modifications to use 3rd party headsets.
Any one?
Also, if you've found/used a non-homemade adapter, could you recommend one that works. They seem few and far between as identified in our thread re: this on the i9000 forums. More info here.
Thanks.
Yes, they work. I have a pair of UE TF10vi that I use, can play/pause with the click on the button - haven't tested answering a call with it, but know that the mic works as well.

That's good to know. Those are specifically advertised as iPhone and Blackberry compatible, and on the i9000 if you click to pause, you actually boost the volume on the headphones to what you'd expect. Some guys were even taping their mic buttons closed to get proper sound.
This confirms my suspicion that the hardware wiring is different on the i9000 international SGS than the US marketed Captivate. Probably safe to assume the same is true on the Vibrant. Disappointing for me that I have the i9000 in that regard - the stock headphones just don't do it for me.
On a side note, those UE TF10s sound fantastic - not sure I have the ears to appreciate them, though.
Thanks.
I've been using the headphones that came with the iphone 3g since day 1 without a problem.
iphone wired doesnt work on my galaxy s so i made an adaptor from a cut off nokia ad-57 and some generic female 3.5mm 4pole and crossed the mic and ground

for those who cba to diy one this may do it http://www.kvconnection.com/product-p/km-354r3m-r2f.htm its an iphone to generic headphone adaptor advertised, but a little expensive at 18$.
I've got a fairly good USB mic I've used with a Windows tablet to record lectures within OneNote. Great pick-up and sound quality.
Does anyone know if the N10.1 will support a USB mic through the USB adapter?
If not, any other options for an external mic?
You can connect a mic through the 3.5mm headset connector. Get a 3.5mm splitter to break out to separate mic and headphone connectors.

Thanks.
So, is that a 3 band 3.5mm connector? Or, standard stereo?
You need a 4-band to 2x3-band that splits the mic and headphones to separate sockets. If you take a look at the headset that comes with the Note, it is a combined mic and headphone (it is identical to the one that was supplied with my Galaxy S3).

Hmmm, I bought my N10.1 at Costco and it did not come with a headset. Bummer.
But, thanks for the info. That will help.

It looks like some progress might be made on the USB front. http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=363102
Hi,
If you know a bit of hardware you will find this usefull. The idea for the dock started quite simple: control the phone from the steering wheel using the USB port. Once that was ready the maker in me said:
"Hm, that is good but how cool would be to also charge the phone ... yeah USB Host and Charging does not work together but there have to be a way ..."
and once that was done again:
"Nah, it is crappy to put one cable for USB and another in the headphone jack for audio ... how cool it would be to channel the audio through USB also?"
And here it is how it all ended up (+lots of info how it works and how to build your own):

Too complicated for me, but what USB DAC are you using?

I believe it is plantronics brand, do not know the exact details ...it came broken in half (literally)
anyway - any usb dac will do (USB DAC == USB Soundcard) just check with OTG cable that you phone will recognize it and play musing throught it.
Cool stuff. Like mentioned before .. A bit too much for me to take on as I don't have enough free time to set up. If you got yourself into making and selling these then I think you'd be on to a winner. Thanks anyway.

If you are willing to:
* loose the ability to control the phone from the steering wheel
* loosing your cigarette lighter socket (a car charger should in there)
* have another cable hanging around for the car AUX
you may take a look at theiBolt docks - they can also charge the phone plus emit sound using the USB port (you do not have to connect another cable in the headphones output)

Cheers dude will look into it. Having steering wheel controls would be sweet though.
Hi all,
got a bit of an odd one for you all to ponder over. I recently purchased a magnetic charging cable. One of these
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201496892947?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
It has a very small adapter that plugs in and lives in the micro usb slot on my note 3. The cable end then attaches magnetically and away we go - charge and data - pull and it drops off. Pure magic.
The pondererance is how do I connect OTG devices? This adapter is a snug fit and designed to stay put. For socket damage I would also prefer it stay that way. The lead goes to a normal USB male. So to connect I think I need a usb Female to Female - such a thing does exist here
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-x-USB-2...515514?hash=item20cfdff93a:g:~9kAAOxy4t1Sf0rr
but I am unsure what is wired to what - and indeed what should be wired to what... So
1) is this the right thing - plug the magnetic lead into it then plug a USB pen in to the other end and away we go?
2) if not how should a female to female be wired? I have plenty of usb extension leads and am willing to cut a pair of them to make the appropriate adapter?
3) if there are no definitive answers how safe do you think it will be to try? I am thinking get the one from e-bay and then plug in a usb pen. Best case it just works, bad is the power is wrong and it kills the pen (upsetting but I can live with it). Worst case it blows up the phone. What chances do people think for just working or damaging stuff?
Open to any and all thoughts and suggestions...

Personally, I would give it a try - learning by doing. But I think the chances are not quite high that it will actually work.
Here is a scheme of the difference between OTG and regular USB.

So - if I am reading this correct I take two extension leads - cut the female ends and join each colour to the same on the other lead (assuming both leads have the same colour code) and that should (with a little luck) work? That sounds easy enough. I am obviously worried about killing something but I have got an old galaxy 1 phone kicking about somewhere as well as a usb pen I would not be too upset to lose. I may well give it a shot this weekend and see what happens... I will report back if I do.
Thanks for the help.
