Earphones 3.5mm + Cruise microphone apart

Hi everybody, i'd like to know if anyone knew how to enable the use of the CRUISE microphone while an external earphone (without microphone) is plugged (with a mini-usb to Jack 3.5mm adapter).
Because my original hand'sfree kit is broken, now i want to use earphones to make calls and use the cruise microphone to speak.
When i am calling, i can hear people with my earphones but they can't hear me because there's no microphone with my earphones, so i would like to make calls with my earphones but using the device's microphone.
Is it possible ?
Sorry if my explaination seems too messy..
Thanks a lot

I used standard earphones and Cruise's built-in microphone without any extra efforts or settings on a standard ROM.
Why you did not just try?

Hi, thank you for you answer, i've tried it but people can't hear me when i talk while adapter+3.5earphones are plugged.
I dont know how to make it, maybe modifying something in the registry ?
If somebody knows anything, can he/she tell how to activate the built-in microphone when an adapter for 3.5jack is plugged ?
Thanks a lot

Make bluetooth headset as a wireless mic?

Is it possible to make bluetooth headset as a wireless mic? I would like to use the mic on my BT headset in conjunction with an Audio recorder to record lectures.
I know we can port music into the BT headset. But is it possible to port the mic to the PPC?

Good idea really. As long as I know, the headset really hooks up only during calls

I too am looking to do something like this, but haven't gotten very far yet. Please post any findings. I want to have a better mic to record live music during practices without having to carry a separate portable recorder. So far I have found the internal mic overloads easily and turning on the AGC still doesn't bring down the level enough and has a hard limiter action. So a wireless mic is the next thought. So far I have liked the Resco software the best for audio recording, though I found that mp3 format doesn't work on my FUZE and calls don't come through during playback.

Can anyone verify if darfri is correct that the mic in the headset is only available during a call? Could anyone with a BT headset verify or test if recording uses the internal or BT headset mic? Thanks, I haven't bought my BT headset yet. What I choose depends on how I use it.

BuiltIn Mic

Hi,
I bought a simple USB adapter to jack audio, see attached file, to use my Diamond as a mediaplayer.
I can hear a phone call across my car hifi but the built in mic is disabled.
I think that there is a setting in the registry to enable the built in mic, someone can help me?
Thank you
Luigi

If someone find a solution i'm also interesting!!!
I've tried some apps but no-one fonction to activate the mic with this cable.

It occurs because the jack adapter is not officially supported, and Diamond recognizes it as a stereo HF, disables built in mic and is trying to recept sound from HF mic (that is not present).
But yeah, it'd be nice to activate built in mic somehow ...

Where did you buy one of those! Like the name and make of it, but I can also tell you why its not working.
What you bought their is a simple adapter, not an amplifier. (Im sure amplifier is not the right word, but go with me) Basically, if you want it to work you need a device that changes the analog waves to digital waves of the usb, which by looking at that, doesn't do it.
If you're wondering were to get this magical device... well lenovo used to make one that came witha cheap headset.. but they stopped producing it a while ago.

You can buy one of these adapters:

[Q] Manually enable/disable internal mic with headphones plugged in?

This is a rather common question, but the resolution always seems to be 'get a new cable'
I have a headset, which DOES have a microphone, but the mic on it is broken. Instead of going out and buying a new headset, is there any software anyone has seen to take manual control of which mic is enabled when a headset is plugged in?
I have tasker, but it seems there's only an option for "Microphone Mute", which doesn't differentiate between the headset and the internal.

Ask NSA....because i search that in entire internet and i do not find anything about to disable-enable the internal microphone on an android phone....

[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.
