Audio out via MicroUSB port? - Nexus S Accessories

I see the Galaxy S dock offers a single MicroUSB connection and then has microusb+audio jacks on the back, so I'm assuming the NS also has this capability. Does anyone offer a microUSB>MicroUSB+audio in jacks cable?

hell, i tried using the headphone jack to my vehicle's aux input. sound output didn't work.

That works fine in my car.
In the short term I may use some sugru to make a combination MicroUSB & 3.5mm cable.

mini USB pinouts and car audio connections

Hello,
I have recently bought a TY TN II and I would like it to play music into my car stereo audio input. Simpler said then done, I have quickly found out!!
I am trying to connect the Kaiser to the car charger and a 3.5 mm head phone jack that I would connect to the car stereo input.
Unfortunately all the Y splitter cable I have seen are very short and would result in having a mess of cable dangling from the Kaiser mounted on the air vent. I would like to just have one cable go into the dash and there connect to the Y splitter and then charger and audio. The goal is to charge and at the same time play music.
I would then need an extension cord to put between the y splitter and the kasier. Here come the problems:
1- How many pins are on the mini usb female that is on the kaiser. Is it a simple 5 pin Mini type A? or is it an 11 pins as some Y cable imply?
2- I could only find one supplier for the mini extension http://www.pc-mobile.net/gugf.htm item CMUE and I am not sure if it is a 5 or 4 wire extension (mini USB can be both I believe). For some reason nobody make this extension???!!!
3- If that extension does not work I could try to make one. What are the pinouts on the Kaiser? I could try to cannibalizing a sycro cable mini male end and find a circuitboard female to connect to the y splitter.
Any help is appreciated. I am getting quite aggravated with this connection problems.
Cheers
Giovanni

Best way would be to buy a BT capable HiFi as with the latest BT fix it will be OK.
BUT!!
If you want a quick hack for BT stereo/handsfree to your car audio.
Buy an iTech clip (it has a 3.5mm jack for audio out) and a car charger for it and a dual cig lighter adaptor.
Fit the iTech clip on you sunvisor (mic is there for phone!) and route its charger cable to the cigarette lighter and the audio cable to your stereo (if you don't have audio in, use a cassette adaptor).
You now can use the clip as Wireless stereo AND it will answer call for you and mute the music and only your power cable to your phone!!!
My iTech clip works seamlessly with the 'Kaiser', not ticks and good audio quality.

This is exactly what I use. I have it connected to an MP3 cable for my stereo and it wprks great!
I have my bluetooth earpiece in to receive calls and the stereo mutes when someone calls.
Also with MS Voice Commander I can also select artists, albums, tracks, or even genre just by pressing the button on my earpiece and speaking!
Its wicked!

I don't want to change the car stereo and I want to just have one simple cable to plug in the Kaiser. The rest should be in the car dashboard and out of sight.
I have bought a Scosche BT receiver but did not work with the Kaiser. BT is kind of miss and hit still. Since I need to connect one cable (power in) anyway I may as well have the audio hard wired.

Does this adapter exist?

I already have a 2.5mm -> 3.5mm stereo adapter to connect my Mogul to my car stereo.
I want a 2.5mm (M) -> Splits two ways:
a) 3.5mm (F) stereo
b) 3.5mm (F) mic
If there isn't one commercially available, I should be able to make it. Any idea what the proper pinout is? And how do we get all signals down 3 wires? (Left+Right+Mic+Gnd+control button)
Any update on finding out how to conect a external speaker and mic to the 6800? I would like to have this type of setup in my car.

You can do a direct splice of the cables coming out if you want, but that requires a little bit on knowledge and a little bit of testing. Basically, you'd take the stock headset and cut off the earbuds and mic. You'd then splice the headphone fead and the mic feed into other lines that would run to your external speaker and mic. Other than that, I don't know of any attachments that do it. You could swing by radio shack and ask them.
I am also interested in doing this. My car has an aux input to the stereo and I would like to install some kind of mic setup so I can use it as a handsfree device. Bluetooth is way too unpredictable so I plan on doing it wired.
You will need a 4-conductor 2.5mm plug along with the Y-cable that came with the phone that has usb and 2.5mm jack.
anyone looking for this setup.. i have a cable i bought off ebay that has a miniusb,which allows you to have a charger plugged in, built in microphone and answer button, and a 3.5mm headphone jack, it works great in the car for hands free (car deck has aux in) , and also works great with my cigarette lighter fm transmitter. anyone looking for this , just type in m
I think i found a solution. I just bought an adapter like this one:

[Q] Dell Streak + External Mic

Question: any idea of the streak will work with an external mic/or how to get it working? I'm guessing that the ear phones jack should have an audio input as the headphones that come with the streak have a mic on them. That said, when I experimented with the steak and an external mic I didn't have any luck. Any suggestions?
Any standard 3.5mm (1/8in) TRRS breakouts should work fine. Here's an example: http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/item/SP-IPHONE-CABLE

It looks like that Dell is using a wonky wiring for the Streak. So yes, that sort of TRRS adapter will work, but it's all in how the adapter is wired. I'm working to see if I can track down a diagram to get a final answer and identify the right sort of adapter.
Also, does anyone know if the headphone jack on the Streak provides voltage out?

[Q] Using HDMI to DVI converter with AUDIO

Hello all,
I am having an HDMI IN to DVI converter on my monitor, and I am unable to buy HDMI to DVI with Audio converter right now.
Is there any way where I can get the audio from 3.5mm jack/phone speaker instead of HDMI itself? The reason is audio signal is lost when we convert HDMI to DVI.
If you have a speaker system with an External source, plug it in there. Alternatively, you could plug it into the Mic port and tell Windows (Which I assume you're using!) not to mute any of the input.
I have a speaker system, can I plug it in the 3.5mm jack output of my phone and at the same time use HDMI as a video source? I thought when using HDMI port, the 3.5mm jack audio of the phone would be disabled.

it should work cause the HDMI audio is intented as the speaker of the phone then plugging in the 3.5" jack it should switch to it...

New TV, no RCA out :(

Hi guys,
I bought a new Samsung TV the other day; it has RCA input but no RCA output.
I have some wireless Sennheiser RS170 headphones that connect via headphone jack or RCA output. The headphone jack works fine but mutes the tv speakers, so every time l'm not using them have to remember to unplug them (on the back of a 46" tv!)
However, connecting via RCA, I can leave them plugged in and works ok.
Anyone know how I can get RCA output on the tv, if at all? I seen some scart to RCA output adapters, would this work?
Cheers.
Owen.
if you had a receiver amp you could plug the rca in to that, or I believe if the TV has an optical output (should have) you can get a converter to change the optical out to an rca. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0074JZ8ZW
sorry to say but most new TVs only have an optical out these days to run audio to a sound bar or amp.
you can get a two rca to a 3.5mm jack plug which would fit in the headphone socket of the TV but you would likely have the same prob of muted TV speakers.
