[Q] Charging via USB FM transmitter - General Accessories

Hi,
I'm thinking of getting an FM transmitter for my N1. Sound will plug into the 3.5 jack. There's tons of different transmitters with USB. Like this one. The USB port is used to play music from a USB stick or MP3 player.
Now my question is: will I be able to charge my USB device (N1 or similiar) with such a transmitter? There's no word about it in the descriptions.
Thanks in advance,
knox

I use this one, and love it, and its available on amazon for next to nothing.
In case the link below doesnt work, its the Griffin Technology iTrip Universal Plus
griffintechnology.com/products/itrip-auto-universal-plus

thanks, mate, sounds like a possibility. unfortunately, this thing is not even close to nothing in germany but rather above 50 bucks. I think a little too much.
Do you have a clue about other transmitters? Is USB host mode sufficient for charging?
regards,
know
PS: which device do you use for charging? I read there's a problem when trying to charge the Droid. Seems to be a Droid issue, though.

How's the transmit power/audio quality on this?

Meanwhile I have been testing a Belkin TuneCast Auto Live and I returned it immediately. I hated it. Audio quality sucked huge donkey d**k: way too little volume, static and frequent interferences with other radio stations. Save your money on this...
My rental car had a 3.5mm audio jack input. So I just bought a Belkin 12V USB charger. It worked but it was too weak to keep the battery from being drained when I used Google Maps Navigation. However, it at least managed to slow down the drain significantly. So make sure to have a greatly charged battery when using the handset as a sat nav.

FM modulator with Car mount and charger

Can anyone suggest an FM modulator that doubles as a charger? If there is a car mount that would be even better.
This one doesnt look qaulity; has anyone used this?

That’s how it is for every non IPod device. There are a couple Jabarra's and a Motorola out there but they don't have a charger for the phone.
I did purchase a non Bluetooth FM transmitter from Wal-Mart today for $30; seems to work decent. It has a digital reader to tune in the station and a USB port to charge your USB device. Since I've never heard a Bluetooth transmitter I really couldn't tell if there is quality difference. The sound on this plug in device seems to be about FM quality; which I assume is what you would expect.
Very similar to this device (same brand) but it has a USB port for charging and is cheaper ($30). IT’S IN THE AUTO ELECTRONICS SECTION. I also purchased a Scosche universal cup holder mount that was discontinued for $10. Seems pretty awesome for that price, but it's also my first one. Will tilt and go into turn into landscape. I got lucky with the power button as it's just out of the way enough to still be used comfortably. Sorry can't find a pic.

This is EXACTLY what I've been waiting for. One less cable to attach to my evo
$80 is WAY too much for this. You can accomplish the same thing with a $20 BT3030 adapter, or any headphone adapter.
Here's a tip:
Grab one of these and one of these, and you'll never know the difference.
i just bought one on these and i'm liking it. Maybe it can be done cheaper but I know this works well.

I just used that as an example as how cheap you can go. Personally, I'm making a cable that does both.
If you want one that charges and plays at the same time out of the box, try this for 20 bucks:
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Jabra-BT303...uetooth_Wireless_Products&hash=item4aa3833d38
It's the Jabra BT3030. One end is the audio output (which plugs into your audio input) and the mini USB port is on the other for charging.
Looks awesome but quality of sound is probably ****...
How is bluetooth sound quality now adays. I listen to flac, which is lossless audio, so if it isn't really good - great sound quality wise I will just keep using a 3.5mm cable.
I'm not an audio expert (nor is my ear sensitive enough to pick up subtle differences), but I definitely wouldn't call bluetooth audio ****. I can't tell the difference between the bluetooth connection and wired connection. I've heard accounts saying flac sounds beautiful through bluetooth, but then again audio is something that has always been subjective.
Thanks for your opinion, i appreciate you taking the time to respond
I got a motorocker or something like that yesterday at walmart. It was like 90 bucks regularly on clearance for 60, but i got an extra good deal on it.
When i get my evo back I'll post my opinion on it. I have audiophilistic ears lol. It also fm modulates, so i know frequency is going to limited on the upper end to 16kish. But much over 16k doesn't contain much musical content depending on what you are listening to anyways.
Not that great over FM, glad i didn't pay much for it. I am sure the device you listed would sound very good though as it goes through a regular aux port instead of fm modulation. There didn't appear to be any bluetooth related noise, just fm garbage.
I bought a new Sony desk (BT2800) with Bluetooth built-in, and the quality is near flawless. It seems like I actually have less distortion than when it was physically plugged in. There was a ground short or something when I had it plugged in to charge and to the aux input ( but you only could notice if u turn the volume up with nothing playing). I don't know if that's with all cars or just my older car.
scl23enn4m3, you don't know what you are talking about. I hope people don't follow your ****ty advice.
First of all, that BT thing you linked to on ebay does not charge and stream at the same time. It has been covered in the comments section on dealextreme.
Second, I have yet to find any bluetooth reciever that I can add to my stock stereo system that will auto-pair. Auto pairing is a huge deal. If you have to screw around with the bluetooth settings on your phone every time you turn your car on, you might as well plug in the damn aux cable.
I am excited to check this product out.
so mine came in i couldnt get out of my car lol
i think im going to buy one for my home surround sound so i can stream music from laying in bed from my phone (my best tunes are always on my phone even though i have a 2tb and home server running boxee setup on my tv)
But seriously this motormouth btaxs is amazign (for you cheapskates out there stick to your long wires or jerryrigged stuff and leave this toy for those who want it all done right without soldeign and running wires all over)
Yes it charges while in use (I have mine plugged in all the time now and i have it setup so once i put my evo in my dock it auto ons my bluetooth and connects automatically to it)
call quality is good i just tested in loud car on speakerphone and no reverb and works flawless with one button touch then speak the name u want to call
love the damn thing i cant wait to go to work i use my phone all day while driving around and havign to plug in two wires everytime i get in and out was askign too much
now only need one wire and thats if my battery is dead ill add pics in a bit

Too bad my '07 Porsche 911 doesn't have a Aux/MP3 input jack.
Woo-Hoo!
Ordered mine from Hawk Electronics on Wednesday night - showed up on the front doorstep today (it helps that their warehouse is here in DFW).
This thing is amazing. Sound quality for music over BT far surpasses what I was getting via 3.5mm jack, and there's no 25% sound reduction just because you docked. In combination with my Sprint car dock, this is just exactly what I've been waiting for. Cool thing about car dock mode: it turns on BT, GPS, and 4G when you dock. It paired without issue, and it fires up the second I dock it in the car.
I used the extension thingy for the microphone, because my AUX port is over on the passenger side in my Element.
Road trip tomorrow.

Wireless Audio

I'm looking for the best way to do this, so I figured you guys would be able to throw some ideas around. Basically, I'm looking for a way to transmit audio to my car stereo, wireless. I currently use an audio cord (3.5 to 3.5) and just have the cord running through my car. It would be awesome to have it all be completely wireless, but I'm not sure what the best route would be to do this and still maintain the sound quality of the cord. I've used the FM transmitters in the past, but they always seem to be a hit and miss. Is there anything else I can use to do this?
Invest in a unit with bluetooth.
I use the Belkin CarAudio Connect AUX with Bluetooth: http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=525857
The phone can stay in my pocket and when I press the button on the Belkin it connects to the phone and starts my music.
I have an aux port and i just connect it to this BluBridge MiniJack and it works great. You can't really notice much change in sound quality. My car's factory bluetooth for the phone still works too. Both can be connected at one time without any interference.
http://www.amazon.com/Miccus-BluBri...A11U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333589281&sr=8-1
It's pretty like the Belkin one above.
For those of us without fancy cars with built in Bluetooth...
$5 fm transmitter from the Family Dollar works great for me. I never have any problems as long as the transmitter is with 10 feet.

I really like that Belkin one, but it's more expensive obviously. Does the second one run on batteries or the cigarette lighter?

The BluBridge has an internal battery that is charged via mini USB. You can plug it into your any universal USB charger and it works. I have one for my cigarette litgher and it can charge continuously while I use it. I've seen some out there that cannot charge while in use. This one can.

Thank you. I'll probably go with that one then, since it is so much cheaper. There isn't much sense in spending that much more money on virtually the same product, I just wanted to make sure that it didn't run on batteries that I had to replace weekly. That would get old in a hurry.
Thanks for the input from everyone.
BluBridge is great too and definitely cheaper than Belkin, i got the Belkin for 57$ on Amazon
mainly because in addition to music and GPS navaigation i also need it for handsfree calling since Belkin lets you to pick calls and also activate voice command or play pause and skip music tracks with just a touch of a button which is very important for me.
I got one and never look back

Looking for a Bluetooth car audio receiver

Hi all,
I'm looking for a Bluetooth car audio receiver that is specifically compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S3. The reason I say this is that I have tried several receivers that my friends own and while I can pair and play music with them, if I turn bluetooth on and off, I then have to go into the Bluetooth settings and manually connect to them again.
This is very cumbersome. I am looking for a receiver that I can pair once, leave in the car and forget about. My aim is to use tasker and an NFC tag so that whenever I get in my car, I scan the tag, the bluetooth turns on, automatically connects to the receiver and music starts playing.
Hence, does anyone know of such a receiver. Specifically, I do NOT want to have to turn it on/off. I want to put it in my glovebox and NEVER touch it again after the initial setup.

I first bought a Soundfly that has a built in fm transmitter but the gain was way too low, so I returned it. Then I bought this: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004CLYJ2I/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00 and it works perfectly since I have an aux input and cig lighter power adapter hidden in my center arm rest. That's what I recommend, bit pricey, but worth it for me.

Forget the HTC stereo clip. I would go with the Samsung HS3000. There is a thread about it in the HTC evo 4g lte accessories thread. I have two and it's great. You can get them with some decent samsung earbuds for like $30.
I'd try the HTC one. It does support Apt-X that the GS3 also supports if you care about sound quality.
Perfect. I read about the samsung hs3000 and they seem to be exactly what i want. Ordering one tonight.

APT-X is supported only on the HTC One X and Samsung SIII so far, AFAIK.
It gives you HD quality sound via bluetooth. MUCH better sounding than A2DP bluetooth from what I've read.
I'm waiting for MFG's to start making car stereo's with the technology.
Currently there aren't any decks that have it.
Hmm, sounds like it may not be the solution you want though. A poster in this thread says he has to turn on/off every time he gets in the car.
Actually it sounds like this device has more than one "issue".

If you're gonna get the HS3000, there is a version of it that supports Apt-X as well, BHS3000. Sometimes it's just listed as HS3000 though so it's kinda confusing.

I think it is not the solution for your problem...for example in the car how you supply it?
Hs3000 stay always on? if yes when battery is discharged you have to remove it and charge it?
In user manual I read that you cannot use it during recharge.
Like you I would a Bluetooth car audio receiver that I plug in and forget, without recharge each time...anyone can help me?

You can plug a headphone jack into it, use a RCA->headphone cable. Then you just need to power it using a USB cable. I added an extra cig socket behind my dash wired into the original cig adapters power leads. Got a USB charger adapter and plugged it in. Starts when the car starts, off when the car is off.
I know this thread is old, but I had the same dilemma. I needed something small, auto-connect on car start, could be charging and listening at the same time.

I looked over this thread and am shocked nobody has posted this solution. It is so freakin cheap compared to the competition and works just fine. Most bluetooth receivers I see costs $50 and up....this one costs $14-$18 and comes with all the accessories needed. I have 2 of them (one for my car and one for home).

Thinking of connecting this to my home receiver through RCA aux. Can this be continuously plugged in to a power source and still transmit the music or is it a situtation where you have to charge then unplug then connect to stereo? Hope that make sense. :silly:
Bit shocked some things like the Belkin bluetooth handsfree kit has not come up.
Belkin on Amazon
I picked up one of these, and it works better than anything I have used so far. I normally HATE Belkin for sub standard crap, but this thing has lasted longer than anything. I also picked up for 15 about to be sure I got good audio a ground fault isolator. I highly recommend you get one if the device that connects to the aux port also connects to the car for power. So unless it is battery powered I would get one.

For that price, you could have purchased a high def APT-X Bluetooth receiver.
I picked up a cheap one from amazon and the Audio was sub par at best... Fine for ESPN Radio but when I played music it clipped pretty bad... It was a Go groove or something like that

FM Transmitter Question

Okay, I have an older car (2001 Dodge Stratus)
The stereo is not stock but it is still old and does not have a USB or 3.5mm connection. I used to use my ipod for music so I bought a --static.bhphoto.com/images/images345x345/424579.jpg--- for my car. (It plugs into the cigarette lighter and connects usb to ipod connection).
If I take the connector out I can run USB to Micro USB for my Galaxy s3 and it will charge. However if I go onto google music the sound will not come through my car speakers.
Can my device do this? Do I need a new device, that goes into my cigarette lighter? Do I just need a new stereo? I thought I would be able to still use the same FM transmitter via usb but it seems to not work. Are there 3.5mm cigarette lighter FM transmitters I could use instead? Any help would be awesome. Thanks so much ahead of time.
I just bought this:
Go groove flex smart x2 (not allowed to post links yet)
Play to your radio over your phone's Bluetooth. I've only had it for two days, but it's working really well. I've called over it, and the other end didn't realize it was over speaker, so it's nice and clear. You can charge your phone too out of the device, but it's a lot easier to just jump into your car and it sync on its own and just start playing music.

This device receives the Bluetooth from your phone, then transmits over your car's radio.

If you don't mind having to plug in some cables, there are plenty of FM transmitters out there that use a regular 3.5mm connection (to connect the transmitter to your phone) for Audio.
Some of them run on batteries, others you have to plug into your cigarette lighter. Some of those offer a micro USB cable or a USB port to charge your phone with, others don't.
Just look around on amazon or ebay. My experience with those transmitters wasn't good but it's been a while. Maybe newer devices work better.
Definitely get one where you can choose from a wide range of channels not one of those where you only have like 3 channels. Because depending on where you live there might be many radiostations that can overlay the signal of your transmitter. You have to find a channel that isn't used in the area where you usually drive around in.
