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.
Is there any smart way to listen to your music on your Artemis, through your cars loudspeakers. I mean is there a gadget out there with an FM transmitter that plugs into my XDA Orbit? Cheers
Buy mini-USB -> audio Jack converter and you could use any FM transmitter with your PDA then.
perhaps a bit late now but i like this

and it will charge as well
Does anyone know of a solution where I can plug my phone in, play music on the car stereo and then make/take calls?
Would be nice if it was all integrated - i.e. that the stereo would pause or so when I'm on the phone, and the phone goes through the stereo speakers etc.
Need to get a new stereo anyway, so need the whole lot!
Cheers,
Ferg.
This is not a new stereo but works perfect for me. look up the Motorola t505. It is bluetooth handsfree and transmits wirelessly to your car stereo with built in fm transmitter. very strong fm transmitter. Music streamed to car stereo will paus when you make or get a call and the call even comes through the car stereo. Battery is very good too. Google it
That looks quite a decent solution, thanks hotrod.
I'm a little suspicious of BT though generally, not least because of my succession of HTC devices. I wonder if there's anything that just plugs in using old fashioned wires.
Well I am using the t505 with my HTC Touch Elf and it is the best thing that I have used in my car for transmitting music, since my factory stereo doesn't have aux in jack. I have tried using a regular fm transmitter directly from the phone but you get way too much distortion and feedback and radio interferance that way. I aslo do not have a tape deck in my car so that option wasn't available. For me I had to decide - Get a new car stereo with Aux Jack in or Built in Bluetooth, get the Parrot Bluetooth ( has to be professionally installed) or the T505. The cheapest was the T505 for me and it works better for me than I had ever hoped.
I have an Evo and a stock car stereo ('08 f150). How can I play music and stream Pandora from the Evo through the car stereo wirelessly? Is there a product I can buy to hook up to the car stereo? Bluetooth?
Thanks
buy an fm transmitter. it plugs into the headphone jack and transmits to a freq on your radio.
Some models of that year had it, but if it has a 3.5mm headphone jack, you can switch your radio to aux and then plug in to the evo and play that way. Or buy a cassette player adapter with the headphone jack and do the same thing, if you have a cassette player.
You can do what others have stated and or you can buy a bluetooth car stereo and sync your EVO to it.

Any of the ways the other guys said will work great, especially like teh roxx said, if your stereo has a 3.5mm input auxillary port. Thats the easiest. Here is a link to a product that i heard works well, but haven't tried it. I was planning on buying it for my company work van, but then I got laid off, (damnit!), so have no more work van! I am curious about this product though, it looks decent.

I've got the car dock, which works great, but I don't have a 3.5mm jack to my car's audio system. Anyone know of a good fm transmitter that works well with the atrix's car dock?
Just get a tape adapter if you can.
Never live in the past but always learn from it.
I have the Jabra Cruiser II. It is both BT and FM so it will work as a speakerphone for you as well. On short rides I just use the speaker on the cruiser, for longer I use the fm for my radio.

Search amazon for "GoGroove Flexsmart II"
It's $55 as of 3/24/11.
EDIT: you can also search newegg.com
What myself, my girlfriend, and my dad are all using. It's a little more expensive than some options, but it's worth it.
3.5mm in, 3.5mm out, bluetooth, fm transmitter, usb port for charging (not sure about the amps on it), play/pause next previous buttons, fm/volume adjustment knob. Works great. Phone sync within 5 seconds of car power on and bluetooth on.
I wanted to ask if any of you guys have experience with a car mount with a fm transmitter like these below and if there are any good ones for basic listening to podcasts, music, ect.
Thanks, maD

Didn't know if this should go under Q&A or Accessories but seemed more appropriate for this section.
I don't have experience with these devices per se, but I do use the Motorola car dock with my Jabra Bluetooth car speaker, which has an FM transmitter. Works very well for me with CM7.2, music is crisp and clear (for an FM transmitter, anyway; obviously, a direct connection via aux input would be better, but my car radio doesn't have one), and sending/receiving calls is a great experience when you can hear the other person over your car speakers.

Ya, if I had bluetooth or a AUX in I would go for it but I don't so I have to get one with a transmitter like this.
Call me an (amateur) audiofile, but I think you'll be disappointed with the music quality of FM transmitters all around. There just isn't enough bandwidth in the FM spectrum to hear music well.
If you'll just be listening to voice, then FM is just fine.
