Someway to send music from my tablet to my car when I don't have an auxiliary jack or a tape deck. And I refuse to use an fm transmitter they never work well for long. My old car had a tape deck and I always had the dream of a tape that turned the tape deck into a bluetooth reciever but no one really has tape decks anymore so it isn't really worthwhile to do. However same idea with a CD drive could work and appeal to many

No auxiliary audio either lol. If I had that I wouldn't care. But as it stands I could wire one in thru the radio. But if I'm going that route I'd rather go bluetooth. Thing is tho that will be pricey. To wire in the aux jack thru the radio will cost me over $100. I want something cheap

Some electronic products require quite low production costs if you don't do the R&D.
And especially if the electronic product is well established for a long time like computer keyboard.
You can get the keyboard parts from some OEM for a very cheap price.
The rest you need is cabling & circuitry layout.
I have the complete circuit layout for GT-N8000.
For Tape...it's a bit difficult as it's an obsolete technology,but you can still find OEM who still produce it.
Is this still relevant?
I have something that Ive been drawing and thinking about for long time.. Not just for our tablet but for universal tablet..
If thats still open please send me a message I'll send you my idea..
yes, just write me.

Hi everyone, this is my first ever android device, loving it, especially with Car Home and navigation. I got a car kit (mount, charger etc) for my Thunderbolt and now the only thing left is getting a good FM Transmitter.
If you have any recommendations for an FM Transmitter to be used with the Thunderbolt, please reply here. Also if you do use one currently, let me know.
Thanks in advance
They are all pretty much the same. It's going over FM so sound quality won't be as good as it can be. Any ones that I used with past phones were the same quality (audio wise) whether it was a $10 ebay brand or a $50 Belkin.

Thanks everyone for the helpful tips + suggestions. I have decided from reading these replies that I'm going to hold off on getting an FM transmitter for now. I have a friend who is very good with cars and he told me he'd be able to install an aux input into my car for whatever the part costs me off ebay. I think I may just go with this option.
I just order this today. I'll update with how well it works after a few days with it.

Going that way will get you much better audio quality than an FM transmitter will.
If you're stuck with using an FM transmitter, then the best one you can get is the Scoshe (I think that's how you spell it) *WIRED* FM transmitter from Wal-Mart. It runs off a 12v line (pull out your car stereo and cram or splice the wires into the 12v input and the ground), then it actually plugs into the back of your stereo, and your antenna plugs into the unit. When you flip the switch, it basically kills your antenna, so you can't get any interference at all. It is the absolute best FM transmitter you can get (as far as I'm concerned).
just get those mp3 player to tape-deck things, if you still have a tape deck in your car. it will be way better quality than FM transmitters.

I've seen these on crutchfield but I think if you're going to go through all the trouble why not just jut a new head unit in that has AUX? If you MUST go FM I'd do it this way but honestly it's as much work as a new head unit which would give you better sound quality than your stock stereo anyway.
Actually, I found the cheaper "ebay brands" to be better than the expensive brands. I had a run where I was buying new ones about every two months to use in my work cars, and the best ones were the ebay 7 dollar ones from Hong Kong. I have no verifiable proof of such, but this is my opinion which it seemed the OP asked for. Make sure you get one that has selectable bands though the entire fm range.

After about a week with this transmitter, I can say that I'd recommend it, for the $ it's fantastic. I've tried $75-100 ones from Best Buy & returned them within a day. This transmitter works much better than any of those.

Honestly I just use the jabra cruiser. It has great battery life and has a built in fm transmitter. It work perfectly for me and I have very little interference with it. I use it to stream music on a 4 hour drive I make once a month and with the HTC car dock my setup couldnt be any better, full gps navigation via car speakers and live streaming radio thanks to tunein radio pro.

Best bang for your buck is a device that uses bluetooth to grab the music and then has an FM transmitter in it... like the blackberry VM-605 .. that way you can use it in your house too.

yep, which is almost pointless (for this topic) because aux ports are in a lot more head units than bluetooth
i was able to get away with a cheap one from walmart ~$20 and it worked great for me even used it on a trip that i was in the back and phone was 10-15 feet away from the antenna and i still had very little static.
Get a blackberry Bluetooth gateway. It plugs in to your aux port and connects to your device via Bluetooth. I use one with my stereo and used to use one in the car until I upgraded the car to a Bluetooth ready system. It will connect to any Bluetooth device that supports a2dp.

yea, but if his company car dont have an AUX port, I seriously doubt that it would have bluetooth...
I went to Wal-Mart and in the Ipod/headphones section found a good FM transmitter by Griffin. It plugs into the cig port for power and then plugs into your phones Headphone jack. a little time playing with different stations and you can find one that works real good and is nice and clear.

I was actually thinking of buying this for myself, according to reviews it seem great
GOgroove Flexsmart X2 Advanced Wireless In-Car Bluetooth FM Transmitter with Charging, Music Control and Hands-Free Calling Capability for Android, iPhone, Blackberry and Windows Smartphones
I cant add the amazon link sadly since I dont have enough posts, but google
GOgroove Flexsmart X2 and you will find it.
this should be exactly what your looking for, its still a fm transmitter but besides bluetooth or aux you have no choice but to use fm transmitter, the reviews on that looks great (saw on amazon)
The best ones to get are the ones from crap storeslike big lots and etc. The cheaper the better for some reason. You have to remember that truck bridges and heavy metal objects will obstruct it. I personal have an M gear. For it from big lots for $4.99. But in the end they all suck.
I picked up a motorola roadster for a steal at a verizon store, was about 50 bucks there (they kind of screwed up a lot and tried to charge me about 300 dollars more on one bill, raised hell got credits for accesories) and the thing actually works pretty well. There are a few minor issues with it, but those are easily solved and the sound quality is actually surprisingly good over FM.
Now there is the problem with degradation of sound when broadcasted over bluetooth, then over FM, but unless you are an audiophile and have high end speakers in your car (and i'm assuming you aren't because you were asking for an fm transmitter) then I doubt you could really tell the difference.
Another handy dandy feature of this device is that it searches for OPEN fm channels so you aren't manually tuning one frequency by one and instead looking for a frequency you can actually break through.
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Road...7KOK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1308640277&sr=8-1
The only problems I have with this unit is sometimes the BT disconnects for a second or so then it reconnects, but that only happens like once a week. Also sometimes coming out of sleep mode it won't kick on the FM transmitter. This is fixed by unplugging, turning off, waiting a few seconds then turning the device back on again. Other than that, this would seem to be the perfect solution to your problem.
I have also heard great things about the GOGroove Flexsmart X2, but have not tried it out so I cannot give an honest review of it.
Heres the link for that one: http://www.amazon.com/Transmitter-H...erry-Smartphones/dp/B003PPGOC0/ref=pd_sim_e_3
I tried the flexgroove it worked great with Bluetooth for the exception of no bass output. Speaking on it was not great but that's just my cars power outlet location making it to far for people to hear me. My brother got a jensen kit from amazon with steering wheel controls and separate lcd to see songs,calls and phone book that one worked great the Mic was external.

Cassette Option?
If your work car has a cassette tape, the best solution I have found is this:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Car-iPo...sette-Adapters/abcat0307013.c?id=abcat0307013
I don't remember which one I bought, but I got it at Wal-Mart a few years ago and it works perfect. You don't have to worry about traveling through areas where the FM stations change, and you don't lose any quality by transmitting over the FM signal.
I just got jvc car stereo http://www.bestbuy.com/site/JVC+-+5...back/4005163.p?id=1218447374174&skuId=4005163 from best buy.
It has usb port and says that I can play mp3,wma and few other formats from iphone.I tried pluging in my Epic and it doesnt recognize it.
My question is: Do anyone know if there is an app or some type of usb adaptor that I can use to play my music on iphone usb accessories?Or any other method?
All these devices are iphone compatible but we android users(majority) are left in the dust for now,although they starting to support android but cost double the price.

Probably will work on my jvc,jvc and kenwood merged into one company so their stereos are almost identical.There is even jvc/kenwood app in the market that supposed to connect to kenwood receivers.
Im gonna try it tomorow and see if app and methods above work.
Most car stereos now come with an auxiliary port as well, you can play music from almost any device using an auxiliary cable.
WHat I'm looking for as a bluetooth-to-ipod-dock adaptor.
Sprint used to sell one on their website, but, I can't find anything about them anywhere. Everything takes a goddamned ipod dock. I want to get a new head unit for my truck but I refuse to pay the extra $150 for the bluetooth receiver when all I want is an am/fm radio with a blue-tooth input. screw wires.
Unless anyone knows a good $100-$150 head unit that comes with bluetooth and puts out 35-45w. Nothing fancy.

The Sony head unit I bought several months ago seems to fit that bill. You're checking Crutchfield.com right? That site is awesome for aftermarket car stereos. I think I paid $140 for the Sony XPLOD I bought with free shipping and the kit for my car included. I forget the watts, but it has Bluetooth and front USB and Aux ports. There's lots of other options around that price point from other manufactures as well.

I boycott Sony any chance I get, but, thanks for reminding me of Crutchfield. I haven't seen that name since I was a teenager and spent all of my money on my car stereo...for years, lol.
There are plenty of bluetooth options that at 14-20w, but, I think I still have an old MTX 25 watter around here that, when bridged down to 1ohm-stereo, will show those speakers who's boss.
Thanks again.
Ok so I got a Kenwood kdc-248u back about 6 months ago. At the time I was on T-mobile with my HD2 running a nice miui rom. I decided to plug my phone in to the usb port because guys like sticking things in things... Now it didn't give me track info, but it was playing what seemed like the files that were in my google music temp folder. Even lacking the track info (just showed a number) it was fantastic because I had my music on random while my phone was charging. The skip track and pause work too. I left T-mobile after the first time I was "capped" for using too much google music and at the slow speed nothing works. Hence coming to Sprint. BUT my Sammy no workie with stereo. Tried many methods including the above mentioned. I was waiting for the official release of ICS because I had read that google music and ICS are supposed to integrate better and offer usb support. But now I am running a FC14 rom and still no sign that my phone and stereo will speak the same language unless some the fine devs here decided to take up the challenge.. Cheers!!!

A possible alternative..?
I ran across a device called a Mimic while I was building a PC into my car that might be helpful. The Android version is still in development, but the idea is right on track.
As I understand it, any phone that can export video (may require micro-HDMI...) will be able to hook up to this and the touchscreen and car speakers will become the phone's display, control and sound output.
To keep the radio / CD function of the existing head unit, the screen will have to be mounted outside the dash or as a pop-out in the 2nd slot of a double-DIN dash.
Kinda pricey, to be sure, but it at least appears to be a step in the right direction...

bluetooth head unit for 120 bucks http://compare.ebay.com/like/140723640419?var=lv<yp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar
Hi all,
I'm looking for a Bluetooth car audio receiver that is specifically compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S3. The reason I say this is that I have tried several receivers that my friends own and while I can pair and play music with them, if I turn bluetooth on and off, I then have to go into the Bluetooth settings and manually connect to them again.
This is very cumbersome. I am looking for a receiver that I can pair once, leave in the car and forget about. My aim is to use tasker and an NFC tag so that whenever I get in my car, I scan the tag, the bluetooth turns on, automatically connects to the receiver and music starts playing.
Hence, does anyone know of such a receiver. Specifically, I do NOT want to have to turn it on/off. I want to put it in my glovebox and NEVER touch it again after the initial setup.

Forget the HTC stereo clip. I would go with the Samsung HS3000. There is a thread about it in the HTC evo 4g lte accessories thread. I have two and it's great. You can get them with some decent samsung earbuds for like $30.
I'd try the HTC one. It does support Apt-X that the GS3 also supports if you care about sound quality.
Perfect. I read about the samsung hs3000 and they seem to be exactly what i want. Ordering one tonight.
Thank you for the input everyone!

I'd try the HTC one. It does support Apt-X that the GS3 also supports if you care about sound quality.

Agreed.

APT-X is supported only on the HTC One X and Samsung SIII so far, AFAIK.
It gives you HD quality sound via bluetooth. MUCH better sounding than A2DP bluetooth from what I've read.
I'm waiting for MFG's to start making car stereo's with the technology.
Currently there aren't any decks that have it.
Hmm, sounds like it may not be the solution you want though. A poster in this thread says he has to turn on/off every time he gets in the car.
Actually it sounds like this device has more than one "issue".

My only complaint with this is the fact that it does not auto connect when I return to the car. I have to find the device on the phone and then click it once to connect. Basically my only complain but it puzzles me as the car bluetooth auto connects.

If you're gonna get the HS3000, there is a version of it that supports Apt-X as well, BHS3000. Sometimes it's just listed as HS3000 though so it's kinda confusing.

I think it is not the solution for your problem...for example in the car how you supply it?
Hs3000 stay always on? if yes when battery is discharged you have to remove it and charge it?
In user manual I read that you cannot use it during recharge.
Like you I would a Bluetooth car audio receiver that I plug in and forget, without recharge each time...anyone can help me?

You can plug a headphone jack into it, use a RCA->headphone cable. Then you just need to power it using a USB cable. I added an extra cig socket behind my dash wired into the original cig adapters power leads. Got a USB charger adapter and plugged it in. Starts when the car starts, off when the car is off.
I know this thread is old, but I had the same dilemma. I needed something small, auto-connect on car start, could be charging and listening at the same time.

It's perfect.
I looked over this thread and am shocked nobody has posted this solution. It is so freakin cheap compared to the competition and works just fine. Most bluetooth receivers I see costs $50 and up....this one costs $14-$18 and comes with all the accessories needed. I have 2 of them (one for my car and one for home). The one for my car I've had for a year already with no issue. The charge on it lasts about 4-6 hours before needing recharge. Honestly, take a look at this guys

Thinking of connecting this to my home receiver through RCA aux. Can this be continuously plugged in to a power source and still transmit the music or is it a situtation where you have to charge then unplug then connect to stereo? Hope that make sense. :silly:
Bit shocked some things like the Belkin bluetooth handsfree kit has not come up.
Belkin on Amazon
I picked up one of these, and it works better than anything I have used so far. I normally HATE Belkin for sub standard crap, but this thing has lasted longer than anything. I also picked up for 15 about to be sure I got good audio a ground fault isolator. I highly recommend you get one if the device that connects to the aux port also connects to the car for power. So unless it is battery powered I would get one.

For that price, you could have purchased a high def APT-X Bluetooth receiver.
I picked up a cheap one from amazon and the Audio was sub par at best... Fine for ESPN Radio but when I played music it clipped pretty bad... It was a Go groove or something like that

Not sure if many have heard of the appradio2 from pioneer but its a head unit/car stereo. Anyways you can hook the gs3 to the radio via the mhl cable and now with the arliberator app the appradio fully mirrors your gs3 with full touchscreen control.
Anyone interested in car audio should check it out truly an awesome setup and much easier and cheaper than mounting a tablet in your car

Just wish Pioneer put a little more effort into the audio portion of this thing.2 sets of 2V preouts is pretty damn weak for a $600 radio.I work at a shop that sold the first appradio and they are sitting on the shelves in the stock room.In over a year,Ive installed 2 of them.They sound like crap.Were not carrying the appradio2 because of how poorly the first one performed and sold.And whats this crap that you have to buy a special cable for android?Icrap cable is included.
It is a great idea,I mean really it is,but it just isnt ready at this point.Your better off with one of the AVIC units.

Sound wise the Avic may be better but its nowhere close to the appradio once you add in the arliberator app. Just a shame someone had to make a 3rd party app to make the appradio truly worthwhile. I mean with the app your radio screen directly mimmicks your phone with full touchscreen control.
The audio does not sound bad at all. You don't need to buy a special cable. Its just a HDMI cable. I have two amps in my car and its probably the best sound system I've ever had. The HDMI is all digital so the screen and audio has no signal loss.

I just saw that app, prior to it I saw all the videos filled with complaints about the unit. I was about to say hell no to it but now it's a definite must buy now that it can mirror the screen. Guees the Avic d3 is going to go in the wifes car now.

Hey thanks for the info. We just bought a new car and are looking to replace the head unit to something like this. I wanted something with GPS. However you said your set up allows for full mirroring of the GS3. Does this include the Navigation app? have you tried it out? If it does work, I would definitely look to buy one of these units because they are much cheaper than others out there with gps etc.
Just ordered my Appradio2 to pair with my Galaxy Note II. I'm pretty excited for this :good: :highfive:
Lol I love my S3 and music. But would never drop that much money on a car stereo. I do have a custom system and it is Pioneer. But I just keep my iPod hooked up to it. Cheaper then $600

I don't get why every ones so into having a bunch of extra tech in their cars. I have a pioneer with blue tooth and an aux port. Keeps me happy.
But while we're on sound systems, I just dropped two Memphis M-class 10s and a 12 in my car today.
They sound beautiful paired with the six Rockford 6x9s
I'd rather put my money in my sound than in "appradios" that probably sound like junk.

Have a new gs3 and i rooted it. I will download ARLIberator once the head unit see the phone. Had cable installed by BestBuy and then went and bout gs3 cause of all the reviews. Only thing that works is my phone charging, unit do see phone. Any help would be great..

Somebody mentioned that the head unit has 2 volt pre-outs. I wouldn't waste that much money on a unit with such poor prevoltage. Based on that I bet it doesn't even have a decent DAC. Not trying to be a pessimist or downer but anybody into car audio knows that 2v pre-outs cannot possibly output good sound. Even with a signal booster. Not to mention you can find head units with 4v and even 6v pre-outs cheaper than that. I guess it's still cool that it mimics your screen and all, but that's a lot to pay for just that feature.
Edit: An example to prove my point...
http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_20186_Dual-XML8100.html
This is the cheapest, bottom of the line head unit you can buy right now from sonix electronics. It's $36 yet it shares the same prevolt as the Pioneer mentioned in this thread.
Furthermore, here is a $139 head unit (the crazy thing is it's a pioneer too) that has 4v preouts....
http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_42777_Pioneer-DEH-P7400HD.html
Why pioneer decided to put 2v pre-outs on the unit mentioned in op but double that in their bottom of the line unit just baffles me. Unacceptable from a sound quality standpoint imo.

Also works awesome with the Torque app - just needs a $20 bluetooth obd2 adapter from ebay. Been using it now for about a month and its great.
Is there a special or good HDMI cord I should get?
