Hello!
I bought a HD2 a last week. I noticed 2 problems during playing audio:
1. Music stops in standby mode after last track ends.
2. I used my own 3.5 mm headphone (not headset, so it has no built in microphone) and when I got a call nobody could hear me. Can I use this time the device built in microphone somehow?
Please help me solve this problems!
Thanks in advance!
(sorry for my English)

no one knows ?
When I use my earphones i talk through the phone's mic, and with your song problem try the repeat button
I had same problem. I now use s2u2 to lock phone. works great with hd 2.
you can set it not to lock system, and this then allows music to continue when the device locks.
from what he said sounds like u got a problem because i had the shipped rom and when i played music i locked the device so nothing would happen to it while i was listing to my mp3 but i also use the htc head set ...now on that note i tryed using the hd2 head set on the hd and u can not use the play fuctions on the headset, so htc made it sum how that allows u to only use the head set in any mode, anyone wants to run with this
Note: none of this works for the Car Dock in Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread (JVB, JVK, or JVO), due to a Samsung kernel bug/feature. It should work for the Home Dock. Car Dock output is fixed in Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread (JVP or later).
This will not work with any Cyanogenmod, Teamhacksung or other open source ROMs for any version of Android, including ICS, as it calls a closed-source Samsung module that will not be present in these ROMs.
Samsung's docks have external audio outputs that are connected through the phone's USB port. These outputs don't work unless you use the latest versions of Samsung's Desk Home and Car Home apps (kindly provided by an XDA user here for those that can't download them from the market).
Unfortunately these apps are not the greatest, especially Samsung Car Home. I wanted to use Google Car Home, so I did a little reverse engineering and discovered that Samsung's apps use this Android Intent to switch the external audio output on and off:
name: com.sec.android.intent.action.INTERNAL_SPEAKER
extra: state
extra value (Integer):
0 = off (sound through phone's internal speaker)
1 = on (sound through dock external port).
You can use this in a couple of ways:
1. Through Tasker: create a profile with context Docked and an Intent action as follows:
Action: com.sec.android.intent.action.INTERNAL_SPEAKER
Cat: none
Extra: state:1
Target: Broadcast Receiver
Or, if you don't want to use Tasker:
2. I created a tiny app (attached) that triggers this intent when the phone is docked and undocked. I've only tested it with the car dock but it should work with the home dock as well. It doesn't create a background service or use any memory normally, it just gets launched and switches the external audio output on whenever the phone is plugged in to the dock.
Update: v1.1 now has separate settings for home and car docks.
Known versions where Car Dock output doesn't work:
* Android 2.1 (all versions)
* Android 2.2 prior to JPX kernel
* Android 2.3.3 (works in 2.3.4 JVP)
Ringtone and caller voice audio does not go through the external port, only music player output.
I've only tested it on the I9000 but it should work with all the Galaxy S variants, at least all the ones that work with Samsung's Dock apps anyway.
Warning: There is a nasty "crack" when the audio output is connected so you may want to have your stereo's volume turned right down.
If you find this app useful please donate to the CyanogenMod developers: go to this thread and click the link under "SUPPORT US".
Tasker is on my ToDo-List, thanks for the advise, how to use it.
But for now I only want to use the samsung car dock with the google car home app. And your app should be the only thing, I need for that, right?

Yes, you just need to have the app installed. It doesn't create a background service or use any memory normally, it just gets launched and switches the external audio socket on whenever the phone is plugged in to the dock.
Tested it. Works great. Big Thank!

It sounds OK to me, what ROM are you using? I notice the Captivate had this problem and it was fixed by a ROM upgrade (here). Also make sure the volume is up on the phone as it does affect the external output.
Hallo Beano, my rom is js2 itv, now look your solution.

All the switching and EQ changes are done by the firmware, the app just tells it to do the switch, so I would try changing the firmware. I am using DocRom v9.6.6_XWJS5 with speedmod-k13c-500hz kernel from romkitchen.org right now. The bass is definitely OK with this configuration, I am listening to Mr Oizo through it at the moment.
Hello! I was hoping that someone finds the solution to this problem and finally get you!
But unfortunately, your mod did not work for me .... I have the original Samsung car dock
sold in America (one for the vibrant) and when I plug in the galaxy S to cardock putting in jack 3.5" my in-ear headphones, the audio continues to come out through external speaker,
just noise (hiss) from the headphone out and left with much in the distance as you feel
a very low signal (mp3 music).
With your application things have not changed for me.... I've never done a test in the car with the
audio cable, but it should be the same with headphones or not?
HELP!!!
Ah, I forgot..... I use a the Darky 9.2 rom with supercurio (voodoo) kernel and installed also the google car home app.

I believe that's the problem, the voodoo sound changes don't support the car dock audio output. Try a different ROM.
Nicely done little app there...works like a charm on my Galaxy S 4G.
Thanks heaps mate. Ive been needing this for ages and i bet others have been too.
I use alarm clock plus when docked but had to make sure the Samsung app was running in the background to get audio out of the dock. Not now.
Thanks

Any chance you could do a little mod?
Be awesome if we could choose a checkbox for home and car. Eg i use USB audio at the desk but not in the car.
Thanks in advance.

@TheBeano
Thank you for your time effort in doing this.
I'm having trouble finding the Google Car Home app - it's not in the Android Market (for me anyway*) but is in AppBrain. However, if I try to download it via the bar-code link it re-directs to the Android Market & gives a not found message I've downloaded the Samsung apps you linked to and they both work for me, but would like the Google one too.
Is there any chance someone could point me in the direction of another link?
EDIT: I now see that GCH isn't available for many people & have found a link in the apps section of Robot Briefs
Off now to hack a micro usb lead to make the Samsung Car Home app auto-start + your solution via Tasker
*My phone is unlocked but has VodaPhone branded firmware (something I plan to change) & I'm on Froyo 2.2.1 - not sure if the VodaPhone branding is why I can't find Google Car Home

How about adding an options to turn on bluetooth when car-docked and wifi when desk-docked ?

@hms666 for this, thy to download from android markert Car Dock Home v3, Custom Car Home or other application and set this features from Setting Menu.when you'll connect the phone gps,wifi special icons will be enabled
I'm still in searching for an aplication that let me to speak from my docked phone using handsfree with 3.5 jack; default it's on built in speakers when phone it's conected in car dock and if disable the speakers the cal run normaly but if i connect the jack no sound there. With the phone no conected in car dock I can make a call with earspeakers.
L.E. I have:
firmware 2.2.1
baseband version I9000XXJPY
kernel version 2.6.32.9
FROYO.XWJS5
I think its important not to make this app do more than simply toggle USB audio output.
There are heaps of other apps to handle the other docked features.
Alarm clock plus
Car dock v3
Etc
All that's needed is to be able to select on/off for each type of dock mode. Car or desk.
Maybe a toggle widget for each??
So, I have Nexus 4 and I want to make my car Bluetooth friendly. When I get in the car and bump NFC tag that is sticked somewhere in the car dashboard, Bluetooth on phone toggles ON and get connected to Bluetooth set in car.
I found this one on Ebay

hands free set - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Car-Bluetoo...7?pt=UK_Car_Speakerphones&hash=item53fad82e39
Does someone have experience with this Bluetooth set, will this work ok? Do you have some better recommendation?

I have the Parrot Minikit Neo
http://www.amazon.com/Parrot-PF4100...1374116610&sr=8-1&keywords=parrot+neo+minikit
I have this paired along with my pebble watch, ODBII BT dongle, AND HTC Stereo Stick (A100) There's a A200 now but not sure what the difference is besides price lol. Anyway, the Neo can be paired via NFC and it's really easy. And the kicker is that the unit turns via vibration in the cabin and turns off after disconnection.
Before this, I had a blueant S4 and that worked pretty well, but the mic on the Neo is way better IMO. There's also an optional android app that you can use to record your own turning on msg and turning off message. I recorded me saying my child's name, so she gets a kick everytime I strap her in her car seat. It's funny lol.
Really nice set but little bit expensive...
Which app do you use for turning on/off msg ?

It's the companion app for the Parrot Neo.
is it possible??
i actually wanted to do this because i want to play the music through my tablet but want all the notifications from my phone. :laugh::laugh:
I'd be interested too! I don't believe it's possible. However, the Spotify app lets you control one instance from another if both devices are on the same network. I control Spotify on my phone from my watch using remote widget while it controls my tablet which is playing via my Bluetooth speaker.

I just got a Redmi Note 10 Pro. All is good except when playing PUBG with headphones plugged in.
All the regular gameplay sound goes through the headphones except for when my teammates talk through the voice chat. The voice chat audio gets routed through the phone's speakers instead of going through the headphones like all the other audio.
However, when using Bluetooth headphones, this problem doesn't occur.
I've tried restarting the device, restarting the game, changing game settings, but nothing.
I assume this is a software issue right? Otherwise I'll look to change the device.
Thanks.

Usually Software issue
This app (lesser Audio Switch) will solve it no root required but you have to manually change the settings everytime you want to use Speaker, headphone, int mic or headphone mice/ bluetooth
Google Play link:

note to reset to default phone settings you must reboot your phone

will update you just now , are you by any chance rooted?
Actually I have an idea, download the apk from somwhere on the internet
Download Apk editor
edit the apk
common edit : then change the Sdk? target version to 39
it should work from there
else some of these methods may be viable to your phone
Best answer: How do I change my default microphone on Android?
There is no way to change default microphone. Normally device use the inbuilt microphone as default unless you manually connect another microphone like handfree. How do I change...
