Attention registry hackers...

Can anyone help me with this:
I have always used my PPC's in my car connected to an external audio jack via a 3.5mm headphone connection. Not only did I use this for music, but it also allowed me use my car stereo to hear my callers much louder than the speakerphone was capable and still let me to use the built-in mic of the PPC to talk back.
Enter my Artemis and it's proprietary mini-usb audio jack...
I purchased the HTC mini-usb to 3.5mm adapter from expansys so that I could continue to use my in-car 3.5mm connection. Works great for music and TomTom (Austin Powers is scary loud now when he tells me to turn left!) BUT the built-in microphone in the Artemis seems to be disabled whenever the adapter is inserted in the mini-usb jack! I can't use Voicecommand with it inserted and my callers can't hear me until I pull out the adapter - which then takes away my nice loud car stereo to hear them!!!
Presumably, the disabling of the mic is because the mic in the included headset is expected to be used for calls when the audio jack is occupied. I know my configuration is not "standard," but it works (or worked) great for me and I would love to be able to continue to operate this way.
My question is: can anyone tell me which registry values control when the built-in mic is disabled? There must be a value that tells the Artemis to shut off the built-in mic when the headset is plugged in. I would love to change this so that the configuration I described above will work for me again. I have some trepidation about tinkering with my registry too much when I don't have that much experience with it. I hope there is some registry guru out there that will take pity on me and take on this challenge (if it's even possible).
Thanks in advance!

You'll have problems with something like this... I'd assume that it'll work similarly to the headset antenna registry entry, where on connection of the headset a key relating to the FM Radio software is changed from a 0 to a 1 allowing the application to launch.
There are one of 2 outcomes for you though unless you want to get crafty with a button or something to make the changes for you....
1 - Although you'll be able to change the reg setting, plugin in the usb cable or disconnecting it will simply reset the key,
2 - You'll permanently change it and if you want to use anything other than the handset mic you'll need to undo the change.
I'd say more than likely if it a dymanic key though and triggered by connection or disconnection of the usb cable then option 1 will take effect. I'm guessing that you'll need a button (software or hardware assigned) to control this properly.
Good Luck!

I'm too lazy to read.
Check the state and notification broker. Otherwise you'll probably have to directly interface with the audio driver.

Me too...?
Hi all,
I too want this fix, using the microphone whilst drawing off the audio feed for my vehicle stereo. Can it not be done with a soldering iron & external mic wired into the dongle adaptor?
Thanks Paul

Here is an adapter with microphone...

I suggest hacking a handsfree and making your own jack for the car. this is my plan soon!

Hi All,
I have the same problem with my HTC Diamond. Did anyone have a fix for this yet? As i do not mind changing the registry or if someone wanted to make a little program that would do this i would be more then happy to donate for all your troubles.. I'm unable to hack my fm transmitter as it is a holder aswell... see picture

Anyone with a concrete solution?
This seems to be a hot topic! Are we really sure that adapters with mic are not readily available?

If you're au fait with hardware hacking, haret can probably tell you which interrupts are being used and you can write a solution to poll the irqs that way.

There is nothing to do with Registry Hacking or Softwares in your case...

There is so many ways of soldering of wires (Line IN & Line OUT) using a mini usb to made your PDA more compact...
The built-in microphone in the Artemis or Any other HTC Devices sure have to be disabled whenever the adapter is inserted in the mini-usb jack for the soldering of 2 Line-Out (Audio-Out Left & Right) and 1 Line-In (Audio-In/Microphone) Example: Headset that come with your PDA.
Unless HTC going to make one mini-usb to two cables,one for 3.5mm adapter for headphone and another to Mic.jack or a Microphone itself.
This is quite difficult for HTC to custom a cable or jack for individual need.
I think you have to DIY for your need in this case:
Use the headset that come with your Artemis, the one that have a Mic and mini-usb jack...
Cut away the left & right earphone, soldering the two cables into a 3.5 jack (male or female)
Both this jacks-Male or Female can be found in electronic spare-part shop anywhere.

Stereo Bluetooth Headset

Is anyone using either Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 or Nokia Wireless Stereo Headset HS-12W with Artemis? If so, how's the audio quality? Do you need to install extra software? Do all the buttons work? And do track titles show on the display?
Thanks!
Rick

Problems Solved
I just recently got my P3300 and a nice Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970. I had a lot of problems with the original Windows Mobile 5 at first. It recognized the unit as a2dp and I set the P3300 tu use a2dp functionality of the sony headphones. NADA! Nothing happened. I could just use it as regular hands-free. Then I found this site and first upgraded mu ROM to
PDAMobiz_Dopod_P800W_AKU301_v1.1.2_PowerMap.rar
I didn't like it because it was for Asian market, no localization etc. and some problems...
Then upgraded to
Tom_ART_v2.00.02_CB.rar
Brilliant!!!! Looks like WM6 and has a lot of new functionality +
working A2DP profile. Now the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 is working 100%. No bugs, no music while ringing or other problems. Just perfect!
The only disapointment - There is no Radio! In order to run the radio you must use the original hands-free. they say it is because it uses the wire as antena. I tried to hook both the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 and the original hands-free -> the sound coming only from the original. SORRY.
I read somewhere that the Nokia model has a built in Radio. So if you need the Radio go for the Nokia one. Though they say the sound from the Sony Ericsson HBH-DS970 is way better! If you prefer MP3's with better sound go for the Sony.
Hope this helps.

i use the nokia hs 12w and the sound quality is excellent.

Do you guys have enabled or disabled the registrykey "UseJointStereo"?
I'm using the HTC BHS100 Bluetooth together with a V-Moda Vibe. When I enable this key (value set to 1) I have superior sound quality but in jointstereo. When I disable this key (value set to 0) to achieve real stereo sound I hear a high pitch noise and the sound is far from superior but in real stereo. This really anoise (typo?) me alot and it doesn't matter whether I'm using the original earphones that comes with the bluetooth or the v-moda earphones or even my full sized dj headphones.
All in all i'm just looking for a wired solution to get the superior stereo sound but that is a problem too. Because a mini-usb to 3.5mm adapter doesn't disable the built-in speaker when listening to music (using an HTC Y cable)

Have you tried this update: http://www.europe.htc.com/support/software/htcp3300.html
HTC:
"HTC audio Drivers
Downloading and installing this driver update will provide your HTC mobile device with the latest available optimised software for use with the following accessories:
YC A120 Y-Cable adaptor
RC W100 Remote Controller
RC E100 Remote Controller"

Tried it just now but I get the message that I already have the latest drivers installed and then it ends the installation.
I'll try to put back the original rom and then install the driver to see if it makes any difference. That is if I'm able to put it back somehow (extended rom has original rom but hardreset still installs the modified rom).

Finally...after installing WM6, the device recognise the Y cable as a headset (registry automatically change value into 1) and now I can enjoy music in full stereo quality. WHOOHOO

Hi,
Is there any way to set the bluetooth stereo headset connection to default stereo? sorry about my english.
so If i connect may stereo headset to the phone the defaul is mono headset i have to go to bt settings and change the profile to stereo after that working fine, I can handle incoming calls etc. but I have to change the profile after reconection again. If I uncheck the headset and handsfree profiles then the stereo working fine but i cant handle the incoming calls from the haedset only with the phone.
so is there a solution to keep the default profile stereo and keep the other two profil in live?

it tries to you works in stereo

Quick question for anyone with a BT stereo headset - if i get a BT dongle, could i connect the headset to a PC and get voice comms via teamspeak to work? Assuming that the dongle and headset does all the A2DP and other profiles?
Basically I'm just trying to see if its feasible - It'd be nice to use the headset for music with the phone, then use it as a wireless headset for games and voice comms when at home.

Yes, and with VOIP & MSN etc. too. The headset appears in the audio properties box on windows or the app you are running.

Thanks -
Before i go and splash out on one - can you confirm a headset that will deliver quality stereo while using the mic
Virtually everywhere i've been, they say that as soon as you use the mic, it will drop down to 8khz mono for sound as it switches from A2DP to the headset one.
If you or anyone have a BT stereo headset, is there any chance you can play a normal 3D game and see if you can talk over teamspeak without it dropping to mono?

I think u need to get headset with multipoint headset if u want keep in live the phone and the PC connection same time. like jabra BT8010 or BT320s.
I use Jabra 5020 (mono) and working fine for Voip and Phone same time.

Weird sound with Bose headset

Stock ROM - trying to play some music through wired headset. Using an ordinary pair of headphones (Sennheiser), the sound is great, ordinary sound.
I plugged in my Bose on-ear headset (i.e. phones plus inlike mike) and the sound is weird - sounds like it is being played through a cavern, the treble has disappeared, some bass elements of the sound are emphasised and there is a strange reverberation, as I say, like it is being played in a cavern or echoing around a vast cathedral.
If I change the headset, everything is fine again.
Is there some way I can make the Jasjar work with the Bose headset, or is there something unique to the Jasjar's line out socket?
(The Bose headset works fine with every gadget I have).

Weird sound with Bose headset // Different port assignment
Hi rjstep3,
don't know if you still need an answer to this topic... As far as I know, headsets and Jasjar/Universal is a bit tricky... The assignment of each port for headphone (2 ports for left and right) and microphone (additional port) is different from the assignment of Bose's headset.
The only adapter for HTC Universal that seems to use the correct assignment I have found here:
www .ppctechs.com/HTC-Universal_439/accessories/3.5mm-to-2.5mm-Mic-3.5mm-Audio-Headphone-Adapter_374-356 .htm
I have not tried it out but at least from the comment on the site it seems to be a work-around.
Greetings,
Christian

you're right - I no longer need a reply to this message, as the Jasjar is now finally consigned to the delete bin of my gadget life.
thanks for coming back anyway - and interesting reply. Why can't companies use the same pinouts and ports and make it all standard and easy to use?
thanks

[Q] Nexus 7 USB Audio OTG Headset

Hi,
i want to pair my Nexus 7 2013 with Sony PS3 Wireless Headset to hear music with this headset. The built in microphone of the headset does not matter to me – only the sound output. Normally, it is connected via an usb radio dongle with a PS3, PC or Mac. However, the Nexus (4.3) does recognize the dongle....(due to the lack of drivers)
So i am searching for a rom/kernel that support this kind of feature. What i have found out by googling and reading this forums is that there is an Timurs Kernel that does support "USB audio plug&play handler for DAC". But i am totally unsure if this is what i am searching for...and i do not want to install hundreds of Kernels or roms for try and error.
As said before, my first goal is to hear music with this special headset. My second goal, which would be totally awesome, is to use the nexus´ line in jack, to "record" the sound from my TV and give it out over these Headphones with minimal latency= as i already do with my PC.
Maybe my tasks are totally hopeless, but to me it does not sound like (total) bull****. if so, tell it anyway
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you

*push* ... am i allowed to do this?!
