[Q] Disabling wired headset forever - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hi. I want to disable the headset function in all the sistem.
I broke the audio jack and my phone says thinks that it's always plugged, and I never use it, and I never whant to use.
I just found "audio.conf" and "h2w_headset.kl" files which says something about the headsets but I don't know what to do with them.
Any idea?
Thanks!
PS: Yes I blowed the audio jack (it's absolutely broken)

A2DP stopped working

Hi,
Yesterday, I installed a new car stereo and after a lot of frustration installing it, I was happily surprised the A2DP worked by default, just paired my touch pro with my stereo, start playing in wmp and it comes through my stereo system. However during the day I started looking for another player to use (during my breaks of course ) and installed pocket music player bundle ( I don't know if it has anything to do with my problem, just trying to include as much info as I can ). In the evening I enabled bluetooth of my phone again, I think I also had the headphone logo, but when trying to play using pocket music player and wmp, it always just used the speaker of the phone and didn't seem to send anything through A2DP.
Any idea how this can be? Is there a setting somewhere to change what audio is used (A2DP/Speaker/ whatever...)?
TIA!
OK, this seems to have been quite stupid.
Haven't been in my car since, but same behaviour with my logitech a2dp bluetooth headset.
Going into bluetooth settings, "right click" on logi_stereoV01 and "instellen als draadloos stereo" (set-up as wireless stereo) did the trick, probably the same for my CAR--BT,sorry for the stupid post.
Although it would be nice if the touch pro would automatically set the detected bluetooth device as wireless stereo every time, just as it seems to do for setting it headset when in range while turning on the bluetooth.
Sorry for the strange sentences... it was a long day
same problem
i just bought a bluetooth receiver for the car.
it fits in the lighter place and transmits via FM to the car radio.
My htc connected staight away (no code required to me) with the new "car Kit" found, but whatever i try i always have the sound from the htc speaker...
How can i solve this?
Thanx in advace.

[REQ] use internal mic when headset plugged in.

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?

no one knows or has any solution ??

[Q] Audio to non A2DP headset

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is any way to stream audio music and/or FM radio from Windows Phone 7 (I have the HTC HD7) to a non A2DP Bluetooth headset (I have the Jabra EasyGO).
It seems that I can only make and receive calls with it.
I've searched all over the place (and web) and cannot find a way to do that.
The only way is to get a new Bluetooth headset with A2DP capability?
Is there is a workaround, please let me know.
Thanks.
I don't know of one. As far as I know, the Headset profile is mono-channel only (plus another channel for the mic) anyhow, and probably quite low bandwidth, so it would likely sound awful.
Thanks for your answer GoodDayToDie.
But I don't mind for quality... Actually I'm not interested to listen for audio.
I just want, for example, to hear drive directions when I'm driving using navigation software (Navigon) instead of hearing from the loudspeaker.
Hmm... I thought the phone *would* use Headset profile for driving directions. Weird. I find the WP7 implementation to be so bad that I prefer to keep using a 4-year-old Garmin Nuvi instead, but I could have sworn I tested it and it came over the BT (and my car only has Headset, not A2DP). Maybe poke around in Settings?
Alternatively, if your car has Aux In, you could use a ripping cable (double-ended headphone cord, they're very cheap) and then the phone will play instructions over the cable into the car's stereo. This is also a great way to use the phone's music player, including Zune Pass if you have it, to play music in the car (I do this all the time). It uses less battery than having Bluetooth transmitting constantly would anyhow.

Bluetooth with headphone jack connected problem

Here is my problem, I connect my phone to my car radio using a speaker cord connected to the headphone jack of the phone which works great. Problem is when I try to then make a call using my Q2 bluetooth headset. I can make the call, but it reverts back to the car speakers and not through the bluetooth device and the microphone on the bluetooth doesn't work either. It uses the samsung microphone.
Is this a setting issue, or do I need to unplug the speaker cord from the headphone jack every time I try to make a call?
Just found another similar thread. Still no answers?

I too would like to know if there is a way to make it work. so far the only thing that works is unplugging the cable to talk on bluetooth. which is kinda defeats the purpose of hands free. I am rooted and still can't find a solution. if you find any hack please post it here!
one other way is to buy a BT receiver that has audio and phone, but i kinda want to keep my integrated one.

Found it today. I was reviewing a post and poster (cant remember who!) mentioned he had a defective headset and used SoundAbout from the playstore to fix it. That got me curious, so I opened the app description and found that it would help with our problem. I downloaded the free version then the paid version $2.99 and it works. I am so happy you can not imagine. care the settings that worked for me:
Headset Plug in/out, checked.
Headset microphone, checked.
Notification Audio, checked.
Media audio, wired headphones
Bluetooth behavior, Bluetooth disconnected, checked
Bluetooth Auto Enable, checked
Phone call audio, Wired Headphones (but keeps reverting back to "Let Phone Decide" for some reason!)
I will email the developer and see if he has a solution and post back, but this is not a show stopper by any means.
Buy the paid version and enjoy the SG3 the way it should have worked out of the box.

Permanently disabling headphone jack using build.prop?

Hello!
I can't use my phone's earpiece speaker during calls because the phone insists that a headphone is connected to the headphone jack, despite the fact that the 3.5mm jack is already removed from the device (had a repairman remove it for me).
Apps that should do the trick work only halfway (it reroutes media audio but not in call audio. I have to put it on speaker mode everytime I do a call.)
So, the question is, can I disable wired headset detection on my device using build.prop or any method that tweaks the OS itself? My phone's rooted, btw.
Thanks in advance!
@BsofBordeaux Did you find answer for your question?
Did you get it fix ?
