Auxiliary port - Verizon Droid Charge

When I try to plug my dads charge into his car stereo using the auxiliary port, and he makes a call no one can hear him but we can hear the person he calls.... Anyone know what might cause this??

As in you (the people in the car) can hear the other person on the line, but not the other way around? Happens to everyone with this phone-if the device (in this case the car) you're connecting to doesn't have a mic then you're screwed - the charge doesn't allow you to use the integrated mic.

It works for me. Just tested it. Plugged it into the car and I could hear them over the car speakers and they could hear me and I had the phone in the cup holder.

Not sure. Maybe the microphone on the phone is being blocked. Does the speakerphone function work properly when it's not plugged into the car?

Yeah the speaker phone part works, but it's a 2009 corolla car... I didn't know if there's a setting in the charge

Maybe the phone recognizes the car aux port as a speaker / mic combo instead of just a speaker.

Try using regular headphones on the phone and see if the other person can hear you. If it does work then you will probably just need to use a different cable to plug into the car.

Actually I have no problems doing that. I tested it once and it worked fine for me. I had the phone in my lap making shure the phone mic was not covered. Just had to speek a bit lauder. The max distance from face to mic in phone should not b more than 1.5ft. At 2ft you would need to yel to b heard. At least that was my expirience.

He got it fixed... Apparently he has to start the car then plug it in

Headphones jack not working?

A little pissed that no headphone plus came with the phone, si I haven't tested, however it appears that my car audio input it not working on the g2x I can hear the caller, but they can't hear me has anyone tested phone calls using ear plugs?
When I plug into my car input, the external phone mic appears to be turned off and I can hear callers, but they can't hear me.
On my vibrant, I use my car speakers to listen and the phone mic to talk
Is there a way to keep the phone mic on when the jack is plugged in?
when using the head phones on my phone it still sends the audio to the speaker. The phone recognizes that something is plugged in but it still plays through the speaker on the phone. My guess it's a software bug. Can anyone confirm?

Skullcandy 50/50 Mic Problem

I just bought the skullcandy 50/50 headphones, the mic doesn't seem to work with the thunderbolt, if I pull it half way out the mic works but no sounds from the headphones, so are the pins in the wrong places? it's odd because I have and old pair of apple headphones for the first iPhone mic works with. Anyone know which headphones work with the thunderbolt with built in mic? Thanks.
I'm not sure if there is a list, but I have a pair of BeatsbyDre Studio's and everything works fine.

It might be because they are iPod / iPhone only. says so on the packaging. I believe they have a slightly different plug that has an extra piece for transmission of the play/pause/skip buttons.
I don't think they will ever work for a thunderbolt... might want to return them. I have a Bose pair that works flawlessly, also the standard skullcandy headsets will work fine.

Audio Jack problems.

Has anybody noticed that the audio jack problems?
i have this issues where im talking on the phone and im using the headphones and i have to plug out and plug back in the headphones so that the other person can hear me.
anybody else having this issues?
I have similar issue only it's when I plug in external devices, speaker goes in and out, like you have to plug and unplug to have it work right.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
yeah same issue here. have to unplug then plug back in so that the other person can hear me.
I have had this problem too but it was because I didn't get the headset plugged in all the way. It is harder to plug in than other headsets I've had in the past.
Yea I had this problem all the time till one day I pushed it all the way down. Its got a lock pin on it and you gotta push it down all the way till it clicks.

A2DP Apaptor in conjunction with a cassette adaptor?

I currently use a cassette adaptor because fm transmitters do not work well for me. What I would like to do is connect an A2DP bluetooth adaptor to the cassette adaptor for hands-free use. Can this be done and which device would you recommend? Is anyone currently doing this?
Also, I don't have an aux input on my stereo.

I have never seen anything like this before but that doesn't mean it's not out there. I would just pick up a decent mid range car stereo that already has bluetooth. I would imagine you can pick one up for around a hundred bucks.
I don't think its possible.

Thanks guys, I really don't want to spend the money on a new stereo plus installation. I still have the stock 6 disc cd player with cassette in my 2002 wrx. I was hoping the spend $50 on a external device, oh well. Thanks again and have a good one!
If I understand what you are asking, the bluetooth adapter would need a line out - like a headphone jack. I have not seen that. There is a company called PAC that makes adapters that turn the connection to the 6 disc changer into an aux in. You might check them out.

You have it right, it would be:
Cassette Adapter -> Bluetooth adapter
I took your suggestion to check out the PAC adapter but unfortunately, they only offer a FM transmitters with bluetooth. I guess I'll have to use an FM transmitter. Thanks for helping.
This is almost what you are looking for:
www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16855995461 but is designed for in home use (wall adapter).
I don't see why this couldn't be made to work in a car if you can power it, or why someone wouldn't make something similar designed for a car. It's not that unusual what you are asking for.

NP. Unfortunately, I guess they don't have the wired interface for your particular vehicle.
Hey, I got exactly what you need! I just got a new car and it has Bluetooth but only for the phone. So I had to pick up this adapter to get A2DP working for streaming my music to the car. The adapter plugs into the AUX, standard 3.5mm jack.
Check it out:

Takes a couple tries to get it paired and connected to the Epic, but it works.
This would work. OP didn't have an aux jack but that's ok he can just plug in the cassette adapter off of this.

Thanks this suggestion. I checked out the other bluetooth audio receivers and I ordered this one. I'll report back once I've tried it out to help others in the same boat.

I had previously ordered the Nokia Bluetooth headset from eBay for $15 from Hong Kong and it lets you plug any 3.5 jack into it. That worked out ok until I lost it. They have a few up there still that could be worth trying out.

Just wanted to report that the device I ordered will not work for me. In the picture of the device, I saw an input hole but it was for power, not a 3.5mm input. Sooooo, I guess I'll give up on this project.

Actually all you need is a "barrel" adapter. It would allow you to attach your cassett adapter to the bluetooth reciever you bought. They are very common and cheap.

I'm happy to report that:
Cassette adapter + 3.5mm female to female coupler + bluetooth audio receiver = SUCCESS
I'm not an audiophile but the quality of the output is the same as listening directly from the cassette adapter. 95% of the time, I listen to podcasts so quality is not a big thing for me. I did test with Pandora and Google Music and both sounded good to me. Today is the first day using it on my way to and from work ~30 minutes total. I will report back again once I've had time to use it extensively. I hope this helps others in the same boat.
Thank you everyone for the help with getting this working. For those that celebrate Happy Thanksgiving and for those that don't Happy Thursday! I now have one more thing to be thankful for.
Very cool to hear you are up and working! I'm looking at doing something similar with my home stereo to play music across the living room with no wires and that way I can keep my phone and text an take calls easily. I'll be checking back here to see your report on sound quality as that will be important to me for music listening.

The sound quality is the same as it was before routing through the cassette adaptor. I only have a 15 minute commute from work, so I can't speak on taking phone calls while connected. I did try to make a call once as a test. I could hear the other person clearly but they couldn't hear me even with the mic close to my face.

Any way to route phone through car speakers?

I'm using the Infuse dock and while I really am enjoying using it, the lone issue I have is that all phone calls are audible only via the internal phone speaker rather than the car speakers (via 3.5mm). I know that the Infuse dock was (obviously) not made for the S3 so I don't know if it's an issue only with this dock or if this is how Samsung intended it to be with all docks. Would it be possible for a dev to enable this function in a custom ROM or other method? Thanks very much.
I don't have a dock but quick question. When you navigate to Settings/Dock, is "Audio Output mode" selected?

It is. The audio (music/videos) sounds perfect through my car speakers using a 3.5mm cable but actual phone calls are only audible via the phone speaker. Thanks very much for the reply.
Bump to see if this is feasible. Thanks.

i run my phone via a no name mount (moslty just a holdeR)
& a male/male headphone cable plugged from the phone into my headunit & it plays everything (pandora, calls, Svoice etc) all via the car speakers.
not sure what your issue is.
when you plug in the headphone cable, does the notification area say "headphones connected?"

Thanks for the reply. The headphones connected message does appear and while all my music is routed perfectly through my car speakers, it's only phone calls that play solely through the internal phone speaker. The difference between our setups is that my male/male headphone cable goes from the dock's integrated 3.5mm audio out jack to my head unit rather than from the phone's 3.5mm audio out. I'm hoping there's a way to get it to work without having to plug the cord directly into the phone as that would take away the advantage of having a dock with integrated audio. Thanks again.
I am having the same problem music goes through the usb port but calls do not. It is very frustrating. Hopfully they will fix it for CM 10.

My understanding is that Ice Cream Sandwich doesn't have USB audio output standard, but that Samsung adds it into their phones. So, having call audio not route through the USB sounds like an issue to send to Samsung.
