Re: Adapter for corded in-car Audio and Mic

I actually tried that out the other day, but the phone's mic is a bit too far away where it is mounted, and it picks up the car's speaker giving a pretty bad echo. My wife, on the other end, said it really wasn't acceptable. I'm hoping that wiring a microphone to the visor, closer to my voice, will help, and perhaps I can get one that's noise-cancelling, to reduce echo from the car's speakers. |

Re: Adapter for corded in-car Audio and Mic
I made my own on the Cheap. Its not hard and does not cost a ton. The + side is one connection. It charges the phone, I get hands-free, and a wired stereo connection.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=49137 I have pics, detailed info, and a youtube video on my project. I have been using it with no issues for almost a year. I have been thru 2 phones sense my mogul and it still works. I used this on the Touch Pro and now my Touch Pro 2 (Sprint). This works on any HTC phone with the EXT. USB jack.

On the other thread, someone referred to devices like this being available via Ebay. That might be a simpler solution for me (my electronics experience is close to zero) - do you have any links for these? My searches never come up with quite what I'm looking for. |

Re: Adapter for corded in-car Audio and Mic
On ebay there is an ext usb adapter that has a long cord on it with a mic, headphone jack and usb power/sync port but to achieve what i have done it would end up with a bunch of connections by the mic on the visor.

I can use Voice Command on my VZW Touch Pro 2 to open Google Maps, but I can't get it to accept any other Voice Commands. Same with Bing. One of those 2 had a "Speak" button on the bottom left, that would allow it to hear and accept a command, but that pretty much defeats the whole idea of using Voice to search while driving. Whatever you're using for this, I wonder if it could be ported to the Touch Pro 2?? |

Re: Adapter for corded in-car Audio and Mic
Also, there is a chance the 3.5mm jack is for standard stereo headphones only (no mic connection). HTC normally uses the mini-USB to 2.5mm adapter for headset connection.

Re: Adapter for corded in-car Audio and Mic
I wondered about that as well. Even if so, though, no big deal, as I can get that adapter easily enough. It's getting the microphone and audio separated that's the challenge.
