Having real issue with calls when i use usbc cable convertor and 3.5mm headphone jack into car stereo for hands free calls. Basically everyone im speaking to complains they can hear there own voice echoing , I tried turning down volume of stereo so low i can barely hear them but they can still hear themselves echo , any ideas ? seems the microphone is way to sensitive ... i dont have this issue on speakerphone thou ... any ideas apprecaited ?
Hi
I can confirm that i face there same from time to time. I just unplug the headsets and replug them back and the echo goes away.
I think it depends on the quality of your headsets.
Annoying
Good luck
I have verified with the adapter of mine and two others with different headsets.The problem is with USB type c to 3.5mm adapter .As of now, issue can be resolved by software update.
the adaptor on mine is the one from google and i cant see that changing the 3.5mm cable is going to make a blind bit of difference . Hopefully software update solves this as its a pain in the ass :/

Hi!
I have this for some time: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=470938811&pf_rd_i=507846
(Actually, I baught it in a store so I'm not sure it's excatly the same but it looks the same)
Recently, I baught this one:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Headphone-HTC-VIVA-exclusive-Duragadget/dp/B001LIM8F0/ref=pd_rhf_p_t_2
When I plug the old one in my HTC Touch Cruise and then stereo headphones, to it's 3.5mm jack (without microphone), I can use phone's mic and plugged headphones to talk.
When I do the same with new one I can't use phone's mic. I can hear the other side through headphones but I can't be heard.
What might be a reason for this?
And can I fix this problem somehow so I don't have to unplug headphones each time I want to talk if I'm listening to the music?
Thank you very much in advance!
P.S. FM Radio works with both adapters.
there is no std for 3.5mm mini-jack with mic included
the org spc is only audio out
some headset makers add another ring which don't interfere with the
left, right and ground connectors
but there is no std they can follow
thumb rule is if mic is not mentioned in relation with the 3.5mm adaptor
mic is not supported as they use the pure audio out mini-jack std
thumb rule 2 is if mic is mentioned but it's not the same manufactures
in both end they may not implement mic in 3.5mm the same way and it will
only work with audio out
Thank you for your quick answer but I'm not sure you understood me.
I do not use external mic.
In first case I use 3in1 adapter and my stereo headphone with 3.5mm connector without microphone.
In second case I use this simple in-line adapter and same headphones.
In first case, during call, I can hear the other side through headphones, and the other side hears me through built-in-phone microphone.
In second case, during call, I can hear the other side through headphones, but other side can't hear me.
In both cases FM radio works well. I mention this because I saw that mic and FM antenna are on the same pin in USBext (if that's important since I don't use external mic)
about fm then all it needs is an antenna connected to to it
any stereo maybe even mono connected with a wire will do
heck you can cut off the airplugs from a cable and use it for fm
normaly when one connects a headset speaker and mic on the device itself
are muted
even if it's a headset without mic so cool that your fist case works at all
This first one adapter is original HTC. It has 2.5mm, 3.5mm, USBext for data and charging and USBext for headset connectors. And unfortunately it is too big for any other use except in car (to connect to car's audio aux input) or at home (to connect to home AV reciever).
So I baught this cheap simple in-line adapter. And it is suprisingly well built. And it works great as stereo adapter. Only problem is that it turns of microphone.
Anyhow I did some additional testing.
I tried SE Xperia X1 since it has built in 3.5mm connector. and it works like this first one. That means microphone works.
I also tried plugging this first adapter into my touch cruise and then plugging this second adapter into it's USBext for headset. The result is the same as if I plug second adapter directly into touch cruise. Microphone doesn't work.
Interesting thing is that in all cases (including Xperia) when I listen to the music with external headphones soudn comes only out of them. But when phone starts ringing sound comes from both headphones and from built-in-phone external speaker.
!!! Maybe the most important thing is that microphone doesn't work even if only second adapter is plugged into the phone, without headphones plugged in it.
Obviously this second non-HTC adapter doesn't work as HTC originally planned that kind of adapter to work and now I need a way to fix this.
It seems to me that this adapter is maybe stereo adapter with mic, but I don't have that kind of headset to try it. And if I had it I'm not sure it would be the right one since there's no standard for them.
As I see it when I plug in adapter phone somehow detects it and changes some registry key which mutes microphone.
Does anybody know what to change in registry so that phone doesn't mute microphone?
Or how can I see what changes in registry when I plug in the adapter?
Do you think if I manage to fix this, will that affect bluetooth headset also?
Thank you very much for any help!
I'm after an adapter to work with my WinMo device which allows me to connect up my own Mic.
The one that almost fits the bill is this ExtUSB 3-in-1 Adaptor but the problem is with the Mic!
I have my own Mic already wired in and a fair way from where the adapter is going to be located. Ideally, I just need a 3.5mm jack for the Mic to go into, just like the 3.5mm jack for the audio out.
The final result being I have a handsfree solution in the car, connected up through the car stereo speakers and a handsfree mic.
Can anyone see any issues with this setup? Does anyone know where I can obtain such an adapter?
1) I tried that adapter with my Touch PRO and it messed up somehow the audio managment so after plugging it in once - after receiving a call I could speak but the device become totally unresponsive only reset worked until a next call... so I hard reseted device and bought the HTC original one.
2) You might get a ground loop when using audio together with charging. I have had it with different cars, devices (laptops/handhelds). The ground loop will give you loud unwanted digital noise while charging. There are workarounds but might not be easy to reach. Basically you need to get the power from the SAME WIRE as the amplifier does.
I have this exact setup in my car and it does work, no feedback problems. I also have the same problem of microphone placement. I have been unable to find an adaptor or a microphone with a long enough wire to do what I wanted, so I had to modify my microphone placement(put it on the dash as oppossed to my sun visor where I wanted it). Other than that issue, it does work great, sounds great over the stereo(both phone calls and music), and charges up at the same time. If you do find either an adaptor or a stupid mini usb microphone with about a 4 foot wire, let me know.

How about the charging?... Is there any change in the audio when plugging in? Try lowering the vol of device as low as possible and maximize the vol of amp.
not at all. The way I have it set up, it is charging or powered the whole time. Of the 3 inputs on the adaptor, one goes to the aux in on my car stereo, one goes to a car power adaptor I installed under the dash, and the 3rd goes to the microphone. I have bluetooth on, so it works with the gps reciever I have(I have an older model without built in gps) and I programed 1 of the buttons to turn on the gps program. Another button is programed to turn on the audio player(I think it is pocket player), which feeds audio to the car stereo anytime I have the aux button pressed on the car stereo. When a phone call comes in, the song pauses and all I have to do is hit the little green answer button on the phone to use it as a speakerphone. Audio is great. I have all the wires snake into one of those little pockets on the dash so there are not a lot of wires going everywhere. Takes about 5-10 seconds to set it up when I get in the car, and about 3 seconds to disconnect when I leave.
Ok so my gf just got the GSII and she is having a problem. She uses an aux cord in her car to plug in her phone so that it goes through the speakers. When she plugs this phone in and makes a phone call, the person on the other end cannot hear her, but she can hear the other end.
Has anyone seen this before and do you have any fixes????
THANKS!
yeah i have this problem too in my car, but when im in my friend's car its fine

hmm that is not what I wanted to hear lol
That really doesnt make any sense at all, it should be the same as its just an aux port. I had her try it with computer speakers and it was the same.
It could be that you had used a bad designed audio cable. If you look at the original headphone that came with the phone, the plug has 3 parts to it (Ground, Sound, and Mic). So it could be that the no good audio cable is taking in the Mic side as well, therefore the other party is not hearing her.
If you really want this mixed 100% without worrying about the type of cable. I suggest you buy a cable with a mic on it with aux in. I am sure you can find one on monoprice.com/amazon/ebay.
Good Luck
When I had my S3 I was able to listen to music in my car via my aux cable in to the car stereo as well as make and receive phone calls. I could hear the other person over the car speakers and they could hear me using through phone mic.
However with my G4 H815 when I try to do the exact same thing the other person can't hear me. It's as though the phone mutes the mic when it's connected to an aux cable. Any way to fix this? Very frustrating.
Anyone?

Bumping because i have the exact same issue. I wonder if it's LG's voicemate screwing with things. Also, why do I get prompted to accept all the legal stuff for Voice Mate EVERY TIME i plug in my aux cable?
You guys should get this cable, its got a mic on the end that plugs into the radio

So I've been having problems with headphones and more accurately the headphone jack port. Some headphones just don't work with the phone but work just fine with others, I usually get that Google voice thing when I plug it in. Did LG use some cheep headphone jack here ?! Anyone getting the same issues ? Please let me know !
