is there any sort of fm transmitter for the DHD? i have an old fm player in my car and i would want my DHD to be connected to the car's stereo through fm transmitter, any ideas?
Any FM transmitter should work. They connect to the 3.5 mm audio jack and often get their power from a cigarette lighter contact.
I want to do something similar - I was thinking of getting a Plantronics K100 bluetooth kit. It is available for about £30 here in the UK and will take streaming audio from the phone via ad2p and it has an FM transmitter to output to your car stereo. Of course, it also handles your calls as well. It just clips on the sunvisor

Also, a big advantage is that the charge port on the K100 is a micro-usb the same as the DHD so you can use the same charger
Fm Transmitter
Htc Desire doesn`t had that hardware component so there is no fm transmitting

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.
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!!
Buy anew stereo that's got Bluetooth streaming.

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.

Has anyone had problems with bluetooth in their cars? I connected my HTC Titan to my car, and it constantly connects, and then disconnects, and then reconnects, etc... and nothing plays out of the audio system. I'm thinking maybe my phone is defective
Do you have the same bluetooth versions on your phone and car too?
This caused my problems playing music via bluetooth in my car.
HTC Titan makes use of version 2.1, check whether your radio has the same version.

My Trophy worked great in my Lexus and now also on my new Jeep... but when used on a friend's car (a Seat Leon) it was pure hell and pain, similar to what you are having now.
I just bought a 2013 Nissan Altima with the technology package. I'm picking the car up on Thursday and I just ordered an S3. In the center console, there is a USB audio port. Will I be able to utilize the USB to play either music on the SD card or Pandora?
I think you would need the dongle to get audio out of the USB but that cars radio should pick up Bluetooth if not it may have the input headphone jack in dash
Congrats on a new car

Yes, it does have Bluetooth audio. I wonder if the text will show on the radio with Bluetooth though?
I bought the ibolt car dock. It has a 9' cable that splits into two.. one USB and one aux cable. I also just upgraded my stereo in my truck that has a USB & aux. It is suppose to be able to stream music through either. When I hooked up the stereo, I plugged in both. I called the ibolt co. And they said its probably confusing the head unit. Either way... it's super to play through either one. BT works awesome.

And on mine, it does have artist and song info on the deck (BT) with Pandora, Google music or iheart. Sirius won't show doing info though.

You won't be able to mount your phone like you could other devices without some tinkering, using the cars usb port. It will charge the phone, albeit slower than some cig lighter usb chargers you can buy.
Via bluetooth you should be able to see the text while playing the music. Even use the stereo controls. This is on the upgraded sound system mind you. With nav i know you are golden, with technology and non nav, not 100% certain. Just make sure you have A2DP (bluetooth audio, not just bluetooth phone) and you should be ok.

I got the top of the line Altima with every possible option. It has the technology package with Nav.
Hi
Is it possible to stream from the phone to a car stereo via USB cable? The radio stations in Ireland are Muc and would like to be able to stream the TuneIn Radio app to the stereo in car via Usb or jack. Car stereo does not have Bluetooth so that not an option.
Is it possible and if so how or any other options
Cheers
If your car is old enough, a tape deck converter is what you want. If it doesn't have a tape deck, then you want a radio transmitter.

And beyond that, if you can modify your car, you can change out the stereo with one that has a 3.5mm audio jack. And furthermore, you can maybe splice in your own 3.5mm jack in the back of your existing stereo.
But these ideas are a bit more invasive.
