Has anybody else seen this?
You plug in the dongle that comes with the Rhodium, and the music plays on whatever external device you plug into the 1/8" headphone jack, but the music still plays on the device speaker. Using the included headset with the EMU plug the sound stops playing on the device speaker. I never had this problem with the Raphael or the TyTN.
Maybe the dongle has gone bad? Do you have access to another adapter to test it?
The dongle is good...I have several dongles and they all work with my TyTN and my Raphael. It's just the Rhodium with the problem. I know they now have video on the EMU port also and figured that might be a problem with my old dongles. But the one that came with it acts the same way.

Hi!
I have this for some time: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=470938811&pf_rd_i=507846
(Actually, I baught it in a store so I'm not sure it's excatly the same but it looks the same)
Recently, I baught this one:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Headphone-HTC-VIVA-exclusive-Duragadget/dp/B001LIM8F0/ref=pd_rhf_p_t_2
When I plug the old one in my HTC Touch Cruise and then stereo headphones, to it's 3.5mm jack (without microphone), I can use phone's mic and plugged headphones to talk.
When I do the same with new one I can't use phone's mic. I can hear the other side through headphones but I can't be heard.
What might be a reason for this?
And can I fix this problem somehow so I don't have to unplug headphones each time I want to talk if I'm listening to the music?
Thank you very much in advance!
P.S. FM Radio works with both adapters.
there is no std for 3.5mm mini-jack with mic included
the org spc is only audio out
some headset makers add another ring which don't interfere with the
left, right and ground connectors
but there is no std they can follow
thumb rule is if mic is not mentioned in relation with the 3.5mm adaptor
mic is not supported as they use the pure audio out mini-jack std
thumb rule 2 is if mic is mentioned but it's not the same manufactures
in both end they may not implement mic in 3.5mm the same way and it will
only work with audio out
Thank you for your quick answer but I'm not sure you understood me.
I do not use external mic.
In first case I use 3in1 adapter and my stereo headphone with 3.5mm connector without microphone.
In second case I use this simple in-line adapter and same headphones.
In first case, during call, I can hear the other side through headphones, and the other side hears me through built-in-phone microphone.
In second case, during call, I can hear the other side through headphones, but other side can't hear me.
In both cases FM radio works well. I mention this because I saw that mic and FM antenna are on the same pin in USBext (if that's important since I don't use external mic)
about fm then all it needs is an antenna connected to to it
any stereo maybe even mono connected with a wire will do
heck you can cut off the airplugs from a cable and use it for fm
normaly when one connects a headset speaker and mic on the device itself
are muted
even if it's a headset without mic so cool that your fist case works at all
This first one adapter is original HTC. It has 2.5mm, 3.5mm, USBext for data and charging and USBext for headset connectors. And unfortunately it is too big for any other use except in car (to connect to car's audio aux input) or at home (to connect to home AV reciever).
So I baught this cheap simple in-line adapter. And it is suprisingly well built. And it works great as stereo adapter. Only problem is that it turns of microphone.
Anyhow I did some additional testing.
I tried SE Xperia X1 since it has built in 3.5mm connector. and it works like this first one. That means microphone works.
I also tried plugging this first adapter into my touch cruise and then plugging this second adapter into it's USBext for headset. The result is the same as if I plug second adapter directly into touch cruise. Microphone doesn't work.
Interesting thing is that in all cases (including Xperia) when I listen to the music with external headphones soudn comes only out of them. But when phone starts ringing sound comes from both headphones and from built-in-phone external speaker.
!!! Maybe the most important thing is that microphone doesn't work even if only second adapter is plugged into the phone, without headphones plugged in it.
Obviously this second non-HTC adapter doesn't work as HTC originally planned that kind of adapter to work and now I need a way to fix this.
It seems to me that this adapter is maybe stereo adapter with mic, but I don't have that kind of headset to try it. And if I had it I'm not sure it would be the right one since there's no standard for them.
As I see it when I plug in adapter phone somehow detects it and changes some registry key which mutes microphone.
Does anybody know what to change in registry so that phone doesn't mute microphone?
Or how can I see what changes in registry when I plug in the adapter?
Do you think if I manage to fix this, will that affect bluetooth headset also?
Thank you very much for any help!
I have an HTC Desire which has an issue with the headphone jack.
When playing tracks on Spotify app and using a 3,5mm to 3,5mm plug to plug to connect it to my car the tracks jump around all the time.
I assume that it has to do with the remote button connections on the HTC headphones.
I have seen on other forums people discussing this and reckon its the cable. It could well be as it is only a cheap one from somewhere like Maplin.
I was wondering if there is a utility to stop the remote connections if that is what is causing this.
Any help in any way is appreciated.
Thanks

Try an App called Headset blocker
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.idunnolol.headsetblocker
Had the same issue when I connected my speaker with subwoofer through the headphone jack. the speakers without the woofer worked fine.
I kinda figured that the power feedback from the woofer through the sound cable messes with the phone because I didnt encount this issue when I was using my bluetooth headset with the woofer and speakers.
Edit: the headset blocker sounds like a good solution to your problem, atleast its better than investing money in an bluetooth headset
Same problem here. I strongly doubt the cause of this problem is the cable.
I tried the stock cable, the iPhone cable and the cable which I use in my car, all three have the same issue.
I believe something is wrong with the headphone jack in my desire.
The remote controls on the stock cable don't work properly as well on my device.
Hi everybody,
I'm having problems with my phone and the HDMI connection. It's the sound the one with the problem, this happens when I connect my phone to my monitor which doesn't have speakers. I was hoping to plug the 3.5mm headphone jack from the phone to some external speakers but after the hdmi it's connected, the audio stops paying through the external speakers. I'm assuming that all sound is redirected through the hdmi cable. Is there a way that I can connect my speakers to the phone and use hdmi at the same time?
PS: if anybody has some Bluetooth speakers I would live to heart if you have the same problem, I'm going to buy some Bluetooth speakers real soon
i guess not... the first time i tried connecting my phone to a samsung bx2250, i was also completely ignorant that the sound on the phone will totally get fed via the hdmi... and so that's where i learned that i needed to plug my speakers to the monitor's audio jack... and if ever you're considering buying something just to make it work, i guess buying a new monitor with hdmi and audio out would be better worth it than just bluetooth speakers...
The problem is that I just bought my new monitor and I'm not going to change it now. I love my monitor.
Finding a monitor with speakers built-in is really rare, they do exist, but again they are rare.
I'm going to buy the bluetooth speakers for not just my phone, also my laptop and all the other stuff I have with bluetooth.
I'm pretty sure there has to be a way of doing this, maybe changing ROMs. Or maybe just installing an app that could do this.
I'm just speculating but I have a feeling that the hdmi sound is controlled over software, and we can still redirect the output through the phone speakers and/or the headphone jack. Too bad I'm not a developer too find out about it.
I just received my Bluetooth receiver and everything is fixed now.
So since there is no sound output through the normal outputs, when the HDMI is connected, the bluetooth does output sound.
So if you only have a monitor, without speakers and you want to still use to connect to your phone. Bluetooth speakers or a receiver will work perfectly!
OK I just got my adapter it is the official Samsung OEM MHL adapter. I had just one problem but I now have three. (PS I Have the White T-Mobile Galaxy S II which is the exact smart phone as the AT&T Galaxy S II Skyrocket)
Problem #1: I am not sure if its possible or how to go about doing this. OK I use a nice 27" HP 2711x LED Monitor on my bedroom with my Xbox 360 connected via VGA, my gaming rig connected via HDMI, and now I have my MHL adapter connected via HDMI. The problem is that my Monitor is only a monitor and it has no internal speakers, but I have a pair of external speakers that I use for sound the speakers have 3 input options. I can connect directly into the subwoofer portion via the red and white RCA cables(this is how my Xbox is connected), I can connect with my basic 3.5mm auxiliary cable plugged into the speakers input jack(this is the way that I connect my phone to play music), or I can connect via the inline Auxiliary cable that the speakers have built in(which is the way my computer is connected). Im not an idiot when it comes to Tech I know that HDMI cables handle both sound and video but since my monitor only takes the video part I can't get any audio when streaming from my phone to it, so I plugged my speakers inline auxiliary cable to my phone so that the sound would reroute to it, but that didn't work either it produced no sound =/, so I also tried to just plug in my headphones into my phone and again no sound. So are there any work arounds or ways to make it so my phone will let me output sound via its 3.5mm headphone jack or even its loud speaker? Or is there a seperate cable/jack I can purchase to split the HDMI cables video and sound, and make the sound output via either 3.5mm audio jack or red and white RCA cables, and let the video output via HDMI?
Problem #2: OK my MHL adapter was working video wise but today I plugged it all up and it wouldn't work at all my monitor kept saying no input detected so I was sad and I decided to remove my phones battery to do a soft reset. And it fixed the problem so I started web browsing etc and all of a sudden it stopped working again. Is there a work around for this or reason or fix?
Problem #3: Is there anyway to make the output quality full HD? Because when I am outputting and on the browser its like the resolution is so off which results in everything being huge and somewhat pixelated.
Sorry for the length I like for my post to be as in depth as possible.
