Anyone got a recommendation for transmitter your phones music to the radio if you don't have a 3.5 mm jack to connect to the audio auxillary port?
Also, does the car have to support bluetooth or just the phone?
FM transmitters like the iPhone versions? I would say there are none unless you have a cassette player and you can use the cassette auxilery.

i've red that htc desire has a fm transmitter chip...is there an app for this?
You have read wrong. Desire doesn't have it.
SwiftKeyed from my HTC Desire using XDA App.
but you can buy a fm transmitter
Never heard of) it would drain our battery energy too fast...

I also google it a lot, It seems it is some kind of Android OS fault. So you cannot enjoy an fm transmitter with Desire
Well HTC Desire uses Broadcom BCM4329EKUBG for Wifi. This chip is also an FM Transmitter & Receiver. HTC has enabled FM receiver in HTC desire.
But it looks like there is no application for an fm transmitter via the desire.
It would be very handy for playing music in a car.
Is it technically possible for an app to use this chip as an FM Transmitter, and to make some use of it, have the music app to transmit sound through it?

I don't think there is any joy with that. More like a torment to me. Few years ago they were the main reason I went and bought my Kenwood car radio, after I smashed transmitter against the pavement. Unless you are in a desolate space with no radio stations anywhere near, you can forget about listening to music in a car and other ideas.
Yes, you can buy FM transmetter
Hello, I'm looking for a FM transmitter for my phone that I can use with my car. It has to be inexpensive and I only want that particular device, not one of those DVD products. Does anyone have a product in mind that they use? Can you charge with it as well? Thanks.

I have a scoshe (probably spelled wrong)and I've tried an as seen on TV one, (I think it was Jupiter jack). I'd recommended you avoid those and, I never use it cause of lots of static. It made me miss my old cassette adapter cause those worked really well.
I am not sure how much you consider as inexpensive or expensive but I use the GG-FLEXSMART-X2 from GoGroove. I picked mine up for about 40 bucks and the sound quality is great. There is everything you want an FM transmitter for your car including USB for charging, a 3.5mm headphone jack, rewind, fast forward and pause buttons, also volume control. I used to try a whole bunch of FM transmitters but sound quality and build quality this one is the best one I have used so far.
Motorola T505. Bluetooth and auto-scan for FM channels.

Does anyone know a Bluetooth car speaker that will connect with the HTC One X?
Something that will play out anything that I play on my HOX as the volume on the phone is a but low, then I'll be able to hear the sat nav.
There's a few on Amazon but HTC and Bluetooth has always been a bit dodgy.
I've tried searching but the Tapatalk app keeps searching in all catagories even when I select just this forum.
Anyone?
Bluetooth is a standard, so in theory any BT device (i.e: speaker, hands free unit, headset etc..) should work with One X. I have tried my phone with 3 BT devices (an A2DP clip, a car head unit and a headset), without any major issues.
Instead of getting a crappy mono speaker, why not get a BT FM transmitter, or if you have an Auxilary input on your car stereo then a BT adapter that connects though Aux port (better sound quality compared to FM)
I am using super tooth HD, which works fantatiscally well, with everything that can be played; n bt, calls, notification, GPS, music...

I watched a video on you tube about the super tooth hd and there was something about a subscription charge for certain services is that the case with yours

Venturi Mini
I use a Venturi Mini. BT and FM (my stereo has no aux input)
Excellent sound quality. Anything played by the phone plays through the car speakers.
I find it excellent. Now difficult to get new - but one on Ebay at present

Good luck
Awesome thanks everyone I'll have a look at these later.
I use a jabra cruiser 2, paired with my HOX and listen to music through my car stereo. I can't remember the lat time I put a CD in my car stereo

is there a fm transmitter app for the s4?
i wanna play Pandora in my car!!
There's fm transmitter, Bluetooth transmitter, and good old Aux cable if your car stereo has Aux in.

Please note that the FM Transmitter app will NOT work on a T Mobile SGH-M919. You did not mention the make and model of your car so I am not sure if you can use Bluetooth or even the headphone out to Aux In. Alternatively, you can pick up a Scosche FM Transmitter at walmart and run from the headphone jack of the phone. I use a cheap Scosche Tunein FMT4 that sells for 14 bucks at walmart in the automotive section and it works great. I don't use Pandora though as the sound quality is sub par compared to the 128k and up streams I listen to on the TuneIn Pro app.
Hey guys,
Let's try to keep it short.
I have a bluetooth speaker Rapoo A500 and the audio is just fine.
I also use on of those fm transmitter things on my car to which I connect my Galaxy Nexus to via bluetooth and it retransmits to the car stereo via FM. Whenever I use the fm transmitter, if I set the volume on my phone to something above like 3/4 of max volume, the sound quality becomes poor (I believe it's due to clipping). The solution is to lower to volume on the phone and raise it, a lot, on the car stereo. However the static from the fm becomes noticeable and so the overall quality drops as well.
So my question is, how come the bluetooth audio is fine on one device and not on the other. Could it be related to the bluetooth versions these devices support? The rapoo A500 is quite recent and supports bluetooth 4, whereas the transmitter probably does not.
Also, do you guys have any suggestions on how to improve the sound quality when using the transmitter? I've tried messing around with various equalizers such as DSP manager, Viper4Android, noozoxide and nexus louder (or whatever it's called), but never got any results...

Any time you use FM transmitters, sound quality is going to suffer. You'd be better off getting an adapter for aux input on your head unit or a new head unit in your car

I used to have an FM transmitter which played music from a usb drive and the quality wasn't all that bad.
Also, "get a new car radio" doesn't answer the question, "how come the bluetooth audio is fine on one device and not on the other."...
I understand, just wanted to point out that if you're looking for sound quality, an FM transmitter isn't the best method.
But, the reason the Bluetooth speaker has better quality is that it doesn't have to convert the signal to a lower quality signal (FM). I can use my phone on Bluetooth mode with my family's Ford Sync head unit, and then use an FM transmitter. The FM transmitter will have worse signal quality.

That's not it. If I connect the phone to the FM transmitter via cable, there is no distortion of the sound. The reason I don't use the cable is because I loose the functionality of the call/end and prev/play/pause/next buttons that are built in to the transmitter.
What I did notice is that the max volume with the cable seems to be as loud as I can go with bluetooth without distortion.
