Might sound strange but I would like to connect a USB headset and charging cable through the microUSB port.
Does the Desire output sound through the microUSB? Will it allow me (if I find the right cables and splitters) to use a USB headset for calls while charging the phone?
Very greatful for all the help I can get.
The Desire has a dedicated audio port, the 2.5mm jack port near the power button. The microUSB port is a standard microUSB, not an extended HTC version, so no audio through it.
You mean 3.5mm
Yes, sorry

Hello!
When I plug my Touch Pro into an active Adapt carholder the sound output of my touch is forced to the charger (no sound output anymore on my mobile).
Is there any way around this? Any registry setting?
Or maybe remove some of the pins from the mini-usb connector on the charger?
Try getting HTC's official dongle which plugs into the USB port and gives you several connectors;
USB for charging
3.5mm headphone socket
2.5mm mini-headphone socket
USB for HTC's original supplied headphones
If you use this, you can plug in headphones at the same time as charging. I use it to route sound through to my car stereo so I can use the phone as an MP3 player and Sat-Nav.
If you don't use the headphone sockets, sound still comes out through the main speaker on the phone.
Hmm I have one of those, but the car charger I use is a slide-in holder, so there won't be much room for the dongle
Microphone unuseable when plugged into stereo
I use the usb dongle adaptor in my car to push sound through the stereo, however this disables the HTC Touch Pro microphone so although I can hear people calling in (through the car speakers) they cannot hear me.
I think it is because the phone thinks the headphones are plugged in and that I'd use the headphone microphone.
Does anyone have a tweak which would allow the phones microphone to remain in action when using the dongle?
Many thanks

I don't have that problem at all, my phone's microphone works fine while using the USB dongle with a 3.5mm jack plugged into it, connected to my car stereo.
Are you using HTC's official dongle, the one with the 3.5mm, 2.5mm USB power and USB headphone sockets?
It works fine for me!
Hi,
as you all know that diamond has a mini usb audio headphone socket.
Whereas if i want to connect it with my car stereo i need an aux socket.
Can anybody tell me from where can i get such cable which has one mini usb and one aux (male or female) socket?
Thanks in advance!

i use this:

can we access TV-OUT feature by 3.5mm jack of sensation..??
on gsm arena, they had wrote that sensation does MHL+3.5mm AVout, but i've never heard of it by any user
Can anyone confirm it ??
BTW : i should go for a sensation or Xperia arC ??
It does HDMI out if you use an MHL adapter.
Phil
I had a quick peek on ebay... Just so I get it right (not very fluent with this) - signal goes out through USB? I take it that sound goes with it, or do we have to plug in to jack too?
Nope you do not need to plug it audio out from headphone. The micro usb to full size hdmi will carry video and audio together. I bought the cable at local electronic store.
Correct. You get video and audio through the usb socket to HDMI.
You can, however, plug in to the headphone socket and sound will come through there instead while it is still plugged into HDMI.
You also need to plug it into power for it to work.
Phil
hey phil, but how do you connect power while the mhl adapter is being used (through the same charge port)
It has a connector on the MHL adapter (a micro usb) to plug in the power.
Phil
Groovy, thanks chaps...
I think I just might get myself on of these toys, seems a handy gadget to have...
I would like the easiest in car audio possible while charging. I have a couple of questions related to the audio output of the razr hd:
1. Would a y cable work with this phone? Im thinking something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Charger...ader_Chargers_Sync_Cables&hash=item53f0a73387
1a. If so is the audio out a line-out or would it be the same as the headphone audio?
2. Is the bluetooth audio out a line-out signal or is it compressed like the headphone audio?
3. Any ever try something like this? http://gromaudio.com/store/usb_adapters/vw_seat_skoda_usb_ipod_adapter_direct_digital_interface.html I only have mtp mode on via usb now so I dont know if this would work as a direct connection.

I'd probably recommend the motorola cable such as this: http://www.motorola.com/us/consumer...icle-Docks/m-Custom-Audio-Cable,en_US,pd.html
Keep in mind that any motorola car docks will have the separation build into the dock, so it'll have a microusb port for charging and a headphone jack for connection to a car stereo. That way you can keep the dock connected and not worry about plugging in cables. As for signal type through the usb, I really have no idea. Maybe someone else can answer that.
Edit: According to this post: http://forums.androidcentral.com/bionic-accessories/118004-bionic-car-mount-y-cable.html#post1318683 there's no volume control on the usb line out, which leads me to believe it's a line level output and not amplified like the headphone jack.
Fm Transmitter

I had great success with a FM transmitter powered by a cigarette charge. It also had a an extra mini usb cable to charge the phone. The FM transmitter is connected to the 3.5 mm jack. I streamed music with Spotify and used Google Maps for navigation. I did not try to connect the phone for calls with bluetooth!

Thanks for that. I guess in the end it doesnt really matter as if its not a line-out there isnt anything i can do about it. The only thing i wonder now is if there are any direct usb connections that that will allow me to control the music from my in dash cd player. Thatd be the tits.
Has anyone tried an "Y" style audio and usb c charge cable with G5? Such as this one ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07176LPDT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_cxOHzb2QDXMWE )
I like to use my H850 in my car with a win sheild mount hooked to my car stereo through the top 3.5 mm headphone jack. I tough something like the above adapter might be nice and I could charge the phone at the same time.
I'm not sure if the G5 supports analog audio out over USB or if the above adapter has a cheap DAC in it as I could not find documentation on it. I have read elsewhere that the G5 does not work with USB DACs but that it does work with USB C headphones, which may be using a different standard.
Thanks.
Ok, just remembered I have a small USB audio "card" that I tried with my USB OTG cable. As long as I kept the USB setting on "power external device" it worked just like an external audio device. The card has its own volume up, down, and mute button which worked. It treated it as a "USB audio / dock" and responded to changes to that section of viper4android. The only downside is I am sure it draws more power (since the card has an LED light) and with this setup I cannot charge the phone.
I haven't tested the cards mic input or spdif output yet. It is based on the VIA Envy VT1620A chioset.
I use a USB headset through a USB-A to USB-C adapter and it works fine. I don't know about charging at the same time.
