I just picked up a motorolla roadster. For anyone who doesnt know what it is. Its a bluetooth device that will do anything Sync will do. It will play music, text, phone calls, all wireless and all through your cars speakers. And it works amazing. Anyone else have it? I liked it so much i got one for my girlfriend and my father. Its simple and works amazing. No need for cd or mp3 players anymore. Spotify and google music work flawless through my speakers! Loving it!

That's what I want to know. The only way it could is either it plugs into the AUX jack of your car or uses the stereos radio frequency.

Turns out to be FM radio. Just found it.
You put it on fm mode and pick a all static station. It comes in extremely clear tho it is perfect. Spotify and this is amazing. Road trips are even better now. Love this thing

Been using the Motorola Rockr for a year now, love it
The Roadster look nice. Even though my 2011 VW GTI has built in bluetooth, I hate the lack of dedicated buttons for its function to make it work. I have to fumble thru the in dash menu, which though not much of a hassle makes its use somewhat inconvenient (damn am I lazy or what? lol)
I have the rokr head phones also and love them but roadster is way better. And lol i dont think your lazy i use my fathers and honestly my roadster is more user friendly and easier to use. I am an indirect dealer. I sell verizon and sprint and since we got these in ive been selling the heck out of them. And havnt had a complaint everyone is loving it!

Quick question: Can you still listen to cd's or in my case, a usb connected device (flash drive, mp3 player etc) without disconnecting from the FM frequency? As it is once I pop in a cd my head unit displays the cd GUI functions & not the radio.
You can still use them ofcourse but i dont need to i have all my cds on my phone. But yes you can still use them it will just reuire u to switch to fm when a call comes in. So basically u would have to push the fm button on your car. The roadster will stay in fm mode. Another great thing about it is it shuts off when you arnt using it to save battery but as soon as u get in the car again it can sense it and auto turns on. Its very cool

Very good find thank you for adding that! I am a indirect dealer for sprint and Verizon. I have sold a lot of the roadsters and ordered the roadster 2 a while back but they kept sending me the roadster 1. I'm glad they did. I'll try the second one out when I get them and report back!!

Hey everyone,
im using an r800i, and whenever i go to plug in new earphones, mostly the ones with controls or microphone or both, it says accessory not supported and ive looked around and havnt seen much about this topic, is it possible to get an app that can fix it or change the jack port, cause this rules out quite a few good types of headphones/earphones....
It's been discussed some times, but it's not a hot topic. The issue comes because of the Jack plug of the Xperia Play not following a conventional standard. If you try to use the headphones which come with the play in other devices, chances are that the sound will be horrible.

so if i was to purchase a new jack for it and solder it in it would perhaps work?
It... could, but that is certainly beyond my knowledge.
Your phone should have come with an adapter, which will make other headphones compatible. If it didn't, you can find those adapters through different sources, such as eBay.

+1, Need this headphone adapter since I could use my Beats or other headphones because of it never being supported by the Play
I'm also curious about switching the jack out. I am about to take my play apart and rebuild it with some custom parts, and if it is at all possible to switch out the jack, or even put in some kind of micro adapter, I would. I've been searching the web for a few hours now with no success, so any help would be appreciated.
it has mic in same connector . Nearly all phones have this connector .

Dude, dont be a dumbass. If you delete the file you wont get notification of "Headphones not supported ..Blah blah"
and still it wont support the headphones/earphones
i know this too well, this could be a quick fix

Not plugging it in all the way might help, but only if you have the xperia play headphone adapter
Bump...
My 'Play was on Android 4.0.3 using the NXT Gaming ROM, and I never received this message, and I could easily play the music through my earphones (they have a mic-in and a controller, pretty expensive earphones..).
Now that I've reverted back to the stock ROM using Sony's Emma, I am now getting this message again.
This support seems to rely heavily on the ROM/Kernel, NOT the hardware!
Is there a way to get around this without having to upgrade back to Android 4.0.3 again?
I don't use my device as a phone anymore, but as a portable emulator for GameBoy games (it works extremely well doing this) and MyBoy (emulator) has a bug with Android 4.0.3 where the game doesn't write to the SD card when saving.
Since my earphones decided to go on an adventure to the washing machine, I have replaced them with 3 different earphones - every one of them working like a charm. I only had problem with my Beats on my stock rom, but after ICS they were working fine too.
Hey,
since I got my Arc about a year ago I was asking myself if there is a tweak or a trick to get my standard Apple headset to work on it.
When I attach it, to my Arc it says something like "The Accessoires are not supported " (I dont know what it really says, my phone language is German )
I would really appreciate any help).
Thx Eike

Apple use TRRS and Xperia use OMTP standard. Don't know if it is possible at all. Some kernel dev should answer.

If the headset has mic support it wont work. Theres a trick, you can hold or tape the mic button and connect. The sound qualiy will be poooor, that doesnt matter because apple headset is a piece of sht.

Depends, which Beats? ControlTalk won't work, but with the Solos you get 2 cables. One works.
Look in the forum, as far as I remember this has been posted before but I can't find the post.
Now, to answer you, the short answer is not. And to clarify here's why:
SonyEricsson phones use a (jack) standard called OMTP (also does Nokia), while Sony phones (Xperia P, S, U, etc), Apple and almost every other company uses CTIA.
This obviously means that the headphones won't work, but...
The only difference between those two are the connection layout:
CTIA:
T-Left Audio
R1-Right Audio
R2-Ground
S-Mic
OMTP:
T-Audio Left
R1-Audio Right
R2-Mic
S-Ground
So to make them work you can buy or make an adapter that swaps R2 and S, or one that short-circuits both; the first kind will let you use the mic, volume control etc, while the other kind (a simple extension would do) won't.
Now, if you don't want to use ANY kind of adapter, not even a simple extension there's a way you can make them work:
It is supposed that once you push the central button on a headset (OMTP or CTIA, doesn't matter) what it internally does is short circuit R2 and S, so, if you manage to hold all the time the central button on your beats they should work, nevertheless the mic and so won't work either as their data goes through the S ring.
Being all that said here's an issue, even with the adapter they won't work, I'm not quite sure why, you can see my post about that issue, there I try to make work a headset like the beats on my Xperia.
I hope I helped you
I bought studio. It works.

Oh, I see... sorry for my rant, I thought that you were talking about the ControlTalk enabled ones , since every 3.5 standard TRS headphone works with almost every phone .
Would a OMTP to CTIA concerter therefore double as a CTIA to OMTP adapter, following circuit logic, making OMTP work on my iPod Nano as well as CTIA on my PLAY?

Nah mate! The hardware restrictions will not allow you, no matter what kinda software you use.
CTIA & OMTP are two different hardware standards!

Beats seemed to work on my phone when I had cm9 but not on gingerbread. Although I might have fake beats: I'm not too sure.
Are the Beats by dre executives compatible with the GS3? Meaning if the incline mic works with the phone to answer calls control volume and play music?
you should at least do a little search.
it is on the first or second page, a list of compatible headsets.
good luck on finding it. it won't be hard.

I looked at all of them but there is nothing on beats by dre. I read that the powerbeats and Studios don't work. But I was thinking since the executives are fairly new that they might work. I just want conformation on that.

Actually I believe the issue lies in the control talk cable itself. I bought a pair of mixr and had the same issues as everyone else with an Android phone. Apple devices the wiring is done backwards inside the cable. So I got to thinking about reversing but my soldering skills aren't the same. So I thought maybe a new cable, so I found one on ebay, obviously a 3rd party beats knockoff, where it has 2 black rings on the plug and 3 rings where it gets plugged into the phone. And viola they work perfect all features Inc volume.. See the picture I uploaded and u see what I mean

I personally wouldn't buy any beats by dres unless u get a large discount. Like almost half. Otherwise you're being ripped off. But I don't believe any control talk headphones work fully
