[Q] Is 3.5 headphone jack also support mic? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hi, looked and searched and could not find answer,
Is 3.5 headphone jack on Sprint TP2,
Standard headphones only or
Headphones and microphone?
Thanx

I believe it will if it is part of a headset that supports the phone functions. You can't just plug a mic into it. You need a phone-type headset. You can tell by looking at the plug. It should have 4 bands instead of the usual 3 that a headphone only set has.

Headphone jack/mic issues.
I too was trying to find info on the mic functionality while using headphones. I've got the RHOD500 and in WinMo6.5 I was able to plug in headphones and hear calls and the mic worked for them to hear me. This is particularly useful since I'm frquently listening to audiobooks via my phone with headphones.
I found this thread which seems to indicate that this is a known issue...that may or may not be being worked on. Since I'm still too new to the forum, I'm not able to post in that thread yet. I'm hoping they find a way to get it fixed, but I won't be holding my breath.

Mono Speaker Headset for Universal?

Hi Everyone
Did anybody manage to find a Headset with Mono Speaker?
If so please let me know.. I am person who uses phone function more than listening musics... Since none of the Bluetooth gives good quality in sound may be because I work in a place where lots of wirless devices, I would like to have headset with mono speaker ...
Is there any headsets available anywere or is there any headset used for any other devices ?
If anyone can tell me any info, it will save me cutting my second speaker in my headset which comes with universal.. Since we dont find Accessories for Universal enough in the market I dont want try that yet.
hhhmmm i believe that 99% of bluetooth headsets are mono
if you mean a wired headset then you can just cut off the earplug you dont use
BAD IDEA !!!!!... Cut the second Speaker from Headset, now the other person having problem hearing me with some echo in my voice... So I recommand NO for anyone?....
maybe these would interest

Man... Where were these Headsets last night?... Now I lost my stero headset and I am going to buy this one... Thats what exactly i was looking for.
Thanks...
i dident have access to the link
were not sure i still had it
were not even sure they were still in business
sorry about your headset maybe some of the echo will
be removed if you make very surden that the metal wires in the
cut off part of the wire dont touch

Wanted: A Wired stereo hands free kit.

Can anyone recomend a replacement for the standard stero handsfree kit that comes with the MDA Pro.
I've seen these http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/10098.htm, but was wondering if anyone knew of any better ones?
I'm also looking for such a headset. The one on your links looks nice, but is there a volume control on it? I can't see that.
The one in mobilefun.co.uk is just the same as the one came from the box.
There is no other alternative so far I could find....
Though I found one (and I ordered already) from
http://pc-mobile.net/pqtaa.htm
that is for a 3.5mm headphone/mic jack.
So, I will post again if this really fits the Universal....GOOD LUCK!!!
Cheers,
Yeah, the headset fits without any problem.
That is the same as the HP Ipaq 54xx/55xx/63xx/65xx, Toshiba e75x/80x.
Although its a bit expensive, USD33 including postage....
Cheers,
Just out of curiousity, what happened to your hands free kit that came with the unit, guys?
The original one comes with the package is excellent except that it is too lengthy and the pair of earphones always messes with others.
I would like to have a single lead earphone that I can change to stereo when I want.
So, the one that I just got is perfect but it is quite easily to be damage....
Cheers,
:twisted: :twisted: My over excited dog snagged them with a paw when I got home from work and I think she snapped the cable inside the sheathing.
Wired headset with headband with wires
Can anyone recommend a headset for the Universal that
IS NOT BLUETOOTH
Has a headband with good sized speakers, not earbuds and dangly wires
IS NOT BLUETOOTH
Microphone, PTT switch, volume
and isn't bluetooth? i.e. it's wired to the 4 pole jack?
Thanks
Nick
Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info!
I have one of this headset that I bought few years ago for my XDA/Wallaby (with the 2.5mm plug). Yes, its very easy to be damaged (very delicate) but yet mine is still functional until now. Some part of the wire is already torn and I have to put some tape on it.
I use it mainly to connect my XDA/Wallaby to my car stereo system.
Thanks that you share this info, now I know that there is a suitable version for the Universal as well.
Do you mind to confirm back that the headset indeed works perfectly with the Universal:
1. The call answer button
2. The microphone
3. Volume control
4. The stereo jack
I will definately get one if you can help clarify that every point is working fine. Thanks in advance.
Yeah. Everything is fine altough the answer key need more practices.
Good to hear that the info is usefual.
Cheers,
Thanks Chris!
The answer button, you just press it once to pick up a call right?
What special practice do you need?
I sticked my old one (for the XDA) in my car dashboard near the stereo system. So when the phone rings, I just press it once and the call then will be in the car speakers. The microphone is not that great, ppl usually complaint me that my voice is so low, but guess what, they indeed can hear me.

This is exactly what I'm trying to set up in my car,how do I do it? I tried using a splitter (one 3.5 mm male plug with two female 3.5mm openings) and running one end to my car stereo, and the audio from the call comes through the car speakers nicely but I can't use either the mic from the included (in the box) headset for voice nor will the device's mic work...

cable Stereo Headset for HTC Universal

What would be a good non-bluethooth (cable) stereo Headset that works well with the HTC Universal. I mainly need it for listening to music (so high sound qualitly is important) but still want to be able to answer phone calls from time to time with it.
Use your own Headphones
Hi I got one of those headphone adapters you find on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Qtek-9000-i-mat...7QQihZ011QQcategoryZ58544QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
It has a jack right after the microphone so that you can use any headphones you like and still be able to answer to your calls without taking them off.
I mainly use it to connect to my car stereo with a cassete adapter.
You can hear the other talker through your car speakers and talk too,without having to do many movements.You can hear the other party as loud as your car stereos aloud you to
Good Luck.

enabling microphone when in handsfeee

i apologise that my first post on this incredible site is a question instead of something usefull but here goes.
i have an adapter that allows me to plug an audio jack into my phone to play music on my car radio. when a call comes through i can here the caller through the speakers but have no way of responding. i had a tytn2 that briefly (for reasons unkown) didnt turn off the phone mic alowing me to talk back. anyway to do this deliberatly on the pro2?
sorry if this has been covered did try and search
still cant find an answer. anyone?
can no one help or am i asking wrong
I use the same setup in my car.
I use this accessory http://store.everythinghtc.com/htc-multifunction-audio-adapter/11A75A4401.htm.
I have no problems and the Mic works just fine.
I've had the TytnII before and i have to say the TP2 works much better in noise cancellation.
hi,
I have the same problem than you.. with this adapter http://store.everythinghtc.com/htc-3-in-1-usb-adapter/11A75A3571.htm
I 've seen this adapter in a shop and will get it then http://store.everythinghtc.com/htc-multifunction-audio-adapter/11A75A4401.htm
Also, while using the 1st adapter connected to my car ext aux, the bluetooth earphones works for phone calls but not the microphone..
im not using an earpiece as the other person plays throughthe car speakers. was hoping to just be able to talk and be picked up on the mic on the headset. as i said this worked briefly on a tytn2 but most of the time the phone seems to turn the phone mic off as it thinks its connected to hands free
It works now perfectly for me using this adapter only:

Using a PC headset possible?

Is it possible to use a headset that I use on my PC with the Nexus 5x? I can't seem to find anything definitive on this subject. Most forums talk about inline mics with controls, not a pc headset.
I've tried connecting a couple headsets to my phone (4pole 3.5mm) but the mic does not work during phone calls (only mic based app that I've tried). I can hear the other person just fine though.
Am I just SOL? Any work arounds?
I'd like to use a pc headset since the quality is far better than an inline mic, especially with a proper mic boom.

Most desktop headsets use two plugs - one for mic and one for stereo headphone. I have an adapter that is the opposite: it allows me to use a phone headset that works with the 5X, etc, with a desktop. It has a single female headphone jack that has 4 connections: Left, Right, Mic, and ground. What you need is most likely the opposite: two female jacks (one for mic, one for headphones) and a single standard cell phone plug with the 4 connections. For example, something http://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00ENFA3GO.
But now, some PCs have the same combination mic/headphone jack as cell phones. Those should work, I believe, as I've used the phone headsets with some PCs.
One thing to keep in mind. When you press the button on the headset while talking, it will mute your voice; you need to hold the button down a second or two to hang up. Still, it should work until you press the button.
.......My pc headsets are 4pole on a single 3.5mm plug. There are no buttons on these headsets like phone headsets have.
