Phone through car speakers via AUX...

[WhiteBlazer01]

Just wanted to put it out there, if you have an aftermarket radio (Pioneer, Alpine, etc...) that has a data port (Pioneer has IP-Bus, Alpine has AI-Net, I don't know of other brands), you can get an adapter for data port to rca, then adapter from rca to 3.5mm, then you can use your car speakers!

Now if your radio already has bluetooth or a 3.5mm jack, then you're good to go, but just so you know since the TP2 has a 3.5mm jack.

only problem i have with AUX is that the AUX sound is very low. I need to crank up my speakers to hear the music. Also when incoming call comes in, it comes in @ full blast. horribly annoying

I have a 2000 Explorer and there is no aux input on those older units. I use one of those Cassette Adapters and it works great. I play music, use gps and take calls through the car stereo. WMP and the stock Sprint Music app works great.

Some aftermarket stereos (specifically thinking of Sony Xplode but this may be true on others as well) have a level adjustment for the AUX input. You typically will not see it until you are on AUX but once there, try going into your adjustments menu and you may find a level setting for AUX. Adjusting that to full may solve your issue with the volume.

My '08 Grand Caravan stock radio has a 3.5mm AUX input, been using it since I got the phone when it was released. The voice on the other end is nice and loud and claims they don't hear any feedback. I usually set my phone on the center console between the seats. Music is loud too. Sometimes I set Voice Command to read my texts when I'm on a long drive.

Way cool.

TellMe works really well for both reading/composing texts vocally while you drive, combined with the diamond soft key mapping or personal button mapping (hold send key), no need to look @ ur phone and crash while driving hehe... I'll attach TellMe for ya...

PS - Run it on your phone not PC, installing to device works best
