Hi, decided to start this thread because I can't find a lot of infos about what kernel or rom is able to throw out the audio from the original car dock plug and especially which is able to make audio calls from the car speaker.

As owner of the kit i'd like to know if the rom i'm going to flash will support this feature and not just to hope in luck...

If you have any direct experience about this, please post here and i'll put in OP to make a list of the rom that support our car dock, i don't have a lot of time to try all the roms but together we can make this easily...

thanks :)

Does the hyperdroid support audio out without redpill as well?

What are the changes from westcrip 8.6 to 9.5?? Why calls aren't working anymore?
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
HyDrOG3NICS v1.1 ICS [N] - I am guessing all AOKP ROMs will be the same

---------- Post added at 11:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ----------

Hyperdroid only uses RedPill - hence the problem.

I've been asking on the thread about westcrip - no reply from anyone.
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
thank you...today i'm going to try some roms, hope to find smth good

edit:

flashed Samsung Stock (XXLPH) and Simplistic RC7 (XXLPB based), both work only audio out...

as calls are available only on Resurrection 8.6 (XXLP6 kernel) i'll try to flash this stock...
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
good news, Stock XXLP6 makes calls through the car speaker :D

it'd be nice to understand how it's related to kernel...

edit: tried foxhound too...[A]
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
Tried Wanam ICS 9.1 [A]

Looks like anything LPH is no good.
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
miui 2.3.2 [N]

let's hope for the nextcoming Miui 4...at least for music out
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
Bezke 3.0 ics lph rom (a)
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
Westrcrip ICS 9.7 with LPJ - [A]

Probably all LPJ kernels will be the same...
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
DarkyROM HD Base XXLPQ for I9100 - [A]

Samsung had it working in LP6 - but have screwed it up since then for phone calls through the car dock....
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
yes that's really bad....who knows samsung...

Stock XXLPQ working only audio as well
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
Miui V4 2.3.16 [A] - needs Dock Sound Redirector (here) as the dock option is missed
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
Bezke ICS LPQ HOLO 4.0 - [A]

That's it for LPQ testing now - Samsung definately doesnt have audio working for calls anymore.

Until the next release...
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
wanam ics lp7 ROM (a)
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
ICS Ultra Nusa v1.0 - DXLP7 - [A]

So it looks like all LP7 ROMs dont do car audio...

I will say that using the Galaxy Sound Redirector on LP6 is great because it auto shuts off any playing music when you take it out of the dock. The stock Dock feature left it playing through the speaker phone....
[Galaxy S II General] le_lutin:
Maybe a silly question, but does the microphone work for calls? Is it not covered by the dock?

Does anyone know if a microphone would work via the line out on the dock itself? I'm thinking of splicing the headphone (with integrated mic) that comes with the galaxy and hooking up the earphones to the car speakers and placing the mic closer to the driving seat.
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
The microphone works fine when it's in the dock. Its how i make my calls in the car.

Interesting idea about splitting it, but then you have an extra step to hook up the phone every time you dock and every time you remove it...
[Galaxy S II General] le_lutin:
I was actually thinking that I could stick to the line-out/speaker port on the doc itself (instead of the port at the top, so there would be no extra step), but I'm not sure it supports a mic.

I wonder if someone with a kernel that supports audio calls do a quick test: put the default samsung headphones into the line out on the dock and see whether the calls are routed through the headphones (they should be obviously if the kernel supports it), but also see if the microphone integrated into the headphones is used instead of the mic on the s2.
[Galaxy S II General] xcaliburinhand:
The line out on the dock is basically just a dumb pipe; the line out is directly connected to the USB data lines. When docked, the phone's usb controller kicks into a pass through mode and passes the L & R audio from line out to the Data+ & Data- pin of the USB. The dock is a one-way, output only, connection.
[Galaxy S II General] le_lutin:
Thanks xcaliburinhand,

So in short, mic through the line out/speaker port on the doc would not be possible, right (even though it is possible through the port on the top of the phone)?
[Galaxy S II General] toxidi:
I have read it is a problem with the kernel and i still hope the devs can have a look on this problem...

Anyway...

Here is what i tested:

Omega Series v6.0 (XXLP2) [A]

Omega Series v7.0 (XXLP3) [A]

Edit: Omega Series v8.0 (XXLPS) [A]
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
As of Apr 4 - none of the latest ROMs seem to support calls out through the dock.

Stock LP3 tested - [A]

Westcrip Ressurection Remix V1.1 (LPE) - [A]

SenSation 3.2 ICS (LP4) - [A]

back to LP6 once again....
[Galaxy S II General] toxidi:
can you tell me where i can find the westcrip 8.6 ???

i dont want to use stock...

thanks in advance...
[Galaxy S II General] toxidi:
now i tested following:

Resurrection V9.3 remix ICS (XXLPH) with LP6 Kernel [A]

WanamLite 7.7 (XXLP6) [A] [C]

I think it is not only the kernel, because i tested the Resurrection (LPH-Baseband with LP6 Kernel).
[Galaxy S II General] philhgw:
finally CM9 nightly-20120411.zip [A]

hopefully, there will be [C] soon :-)
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
no good news from last miui roms i flashed last weeks...

i think isn't useful to update the OP with all the roms we test as it's clear that only the audio out is working and the calls just work on LP6 kernel (even not always).

Hope we'll have more [C] roms
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
LP8 no go

Recently released LP8 is [A] only.

Also tried wannam lp8 rom - still A only.

LP6 for the win!
[Galaxy S II General] le_lutin:
So is this solely to do with the Kernel? I see that a lot of people are using Siyah (myself included). Is it worth asking him to include this?
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
it'd be great to have siyah kernel support...but i don't know if he's interested
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
Add LP9 roms in the list - support [A] for music only

I tried VK-ICS-XWLP9-V4.7
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
So LP6 had it working?! Garghhghghghghhhhhh

WTF can't Samsung figure this crap out... Is there anything we can do to figure out what it was in LP6 that made it work?? Was it driver or Base issue?
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
I am thinking that this thread is dead? No updates in awhile... So sad to see the call audio through usb dock dream die
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
The thread isn't dead...just there're no interesting news and nobody here is a developer so we can only rely on samsung...

If someone came here with a fully working rom you'd read it in OP immediately ;)

I have changed my signature in order to try to get the ball rolling on this again. I would personally donate $50 to the dev who figures this out for us. Cause I am going crazy in my car not being able to hear people properly when they call me!!!
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
Tested CM9 050912 and it wasnt working anymore.

update-cm-9-20120510-NIGHTLY-galaxys2-signed.zip has audio working again for music only [A].

Is there somewhere official to request cm9 devs to add it for phone?

Or a samsung forum that their devs read?

How can LP6 be the only rom to support this?
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
Tested latest LPD ROMs [A]

Actual ROM was Wanamlite XWLPD V11.6 [A]

Also CM9 ROM - Paranoid Android V0.5 [A]
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
This is madness, WTF are samsung doing? Why does it work on one obscure release, then the feature is pulled on every subsequent release????
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
Looks like it is kernel issue... trying a few things now to get this working...
[Galaxy S II General] bahman123:
does RR 2.0 support audio out for the Samsung Docks (in particular the desktop dock)?

runs the Siyah 3.2.x kernal

what about cm9?
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
don't know about RR, but CM9 nightlies supports audio out through usb...ususally
[Galaxy S II General] bahman123:
I previously used RR 1.7 with CM9 kernal and USB audio out didn't work from my Samsung Desktop Dock...
[Galaxy S II General] le_lutin:
Apologies if this is a stupid question, but did you try using the app "Galaxy Dock Sound Redirector".

Unless I have this app installed, the audio never redirects through the speakers (I use MIUI + siyah)
[Galaxy S II General] bahman123:
thanks - yes I tried that on RR 1.7 running CM9 kernal - the app says it doesn't support rom/kernal.

Just tried on RR 2.0 running Siyah 3.2.5 kernal - same issue. The app doesn't support the rom/kernal.
[Galaxy S II General] le_lutin:
Ah right, it must only work on samsung roms then (MIUI is based on the samsung ROM).
[Galaxy S II General] bahman123:
yep real pity - wanting to use the Desktop Dock with some speakers as a pseudo music dock!
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
Just like samsung botchy the call audio through usb dock to. It's a shame.

LPF [A] (can't remember if i posted this before)

I am wondering if its the phone.apk (or related phone libraries) that need to be rewritten to allow audio through the dock.
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
The information I have received is that it is a kernel issue.
[Galaxy S II General] nico3838:
XXLPW audio work but not call audio :(
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:

[Galaxy S II General] beren:
i'm seriously interested in buying a Bluetooth headset and throw this stupid car dock...

also the bt audio out quality seems to be better than usb for music.
[Galaxy S II General] NoOneBR:
I was planning to mod my CarDock (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26951491#post26951491) and turn it more usefull than a phone holder.. haha!
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
i don't understand what's your aim with that mod?
[Galaxy S II General] NoOneBR:
The original dock dosen't have USB data connection over the Micro USB connector. It uses the Data + and Data - to output audio over dock audio out jack.

With this mod I pretend to transform the USB connector into a normal OTG Cable, so I can access the MP3 with my Car MP3 player (including wheeldrive commands). Also, if I want to use the dock audio out jack, I can, but without USB data.

I don't know if I made me clear..
[Galaxy S II General] Leonhard:
speedmod + WLP7 [A]
[Galaxy S II General] moffyboy:
Slim ics is a no for both. A shame really as it's my favourite rom. Stuck on cm9 for now.
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
I wonder if we should start with LP6 as a base and create a whole new "car ROM"

Was there a lot of issues with the LP6 release?

It's the only one which worked with a car dock properly.
[Galaxy S II General] lar1r:
CM9 6/11/12 was working during a freak mess up!

In the 6/11/12 nightly i had audio actual working through a PHONE CALL!!

Actually the mic stopped working - i disconnected the dock - reconnected and suddenly i could hear everything over the car stereo!! Disconnecting and re-connecting again didnt work anymore (only the first half second comes on the speakers before it switches to the crappy phone speaker)

Thoughts on where I should post so that a dev sees?

The fact that it did work - and the fact that it actually comes across the speakers for a split second before disconnecting means there is hope in cm9.
[Galaxy S II General] leyaniv:
resurrection v2.4 has dock settings! gonna test this tomorrow
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
Waiting with baited breath!
[Galaxy S II General] leyaniv:
well, i tried and there's no sound during call nor during anything else. in the menu under dock settings the "Audio" settings is always grayed out even when connected to the dock.

this is the first time i've seen dock settings in an AOKP rom so maybe there is still some kind of development on this issue.

[A] LQ5 - from Samsung (open Europe)
[Galaxy S II General] kevjef420:
I am happy with audio out only as I have Bluetooth car stereo so my call connect automatically.

I have been using paranoidandroid for this reason and I must say I love the hybrid mode and per app density. So for me this is the ROM of choice untill someone makes AOKP work with at least audio out.

I think the only reason it is not working on AOKP, is because AOKP never offically release a version of SGS2 so all AOKP roms that we see are ports from nexus and because of this we don't see the option cause Nexus CM9 does not have dock audio, but SGS2 CM9 does have it enabled.

I am confident that there is a DEV that could get this working on AOKP but the problm is if the DEV doesn't have a need for dock audio then he does not care to spend his time for a solution because all other functions of AOKP are working fine.

those are just my thoughts
[Galaxy S II General] beren:
as i moved to galaxy nexus, i won't check this thread anymore (maybe sometimes) so in case you have very good news (i mean calls working) you can pm me and i'll be happy to edit the OP..

see you on xda....:D

The dev who added the dock capabilities to CM10 wrote this:
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
That was interesting - If only the DEV didn't have bluetooth!!!! ARgghhh that would be some sweet motivation for him. The crazy thing is that Samsung don't provide you with the choice - it would be simple enough just like checking the box "route audio to dock". Give us the freaking options!!!
[Galaxy S II General] hannybal:
How is the sound quality comparing to aux ?
[Galaxy S II General] vaya_putada:
Can anyone update this post with Jelly Bean ROM's ¿¿¿

I installed Resurrection ROM v3.1.2 and now I haven't audio through the original car dock station.

Working fine with Jellybam rom
[Galaxy S II General] bunnybash:
Wait, jellybam the has call audio out from the USB??
[Galaxy S II General] baldmosher:
I bet you can't remember which Jellybam this was, and I bet you can't get it anywhere any more! Doesn't work on 9.2.0 and I stopped following the fork at that point as it started to get silly. I'm tempted to just give up and buy a new handset as I'm due an u/g but man, I love this phone.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] cantIntoCode:
I've had a look through and all their documentation is specifically for the sgs2, which is why the probably already have a build up and running, so this could be more complicated than I initially thought. However, after a quick scan through I can see some crespo stuff(nexus s).

Honestly, don't depend on me. I can have a look through and see how it works, but probably someone more fit for the job than me would be better at this.

Hi,

I'm a pure beginner in the whole porting thing, but I have high knowledge of Linux environment and programming, and so I can learn quite fast, especially with some help (from PaulForde maybe ?). So count me as a "beginner" developper :)

I already have the emulator running, so I can got you more screenshots for the logo ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] nofx161:

in my opinion boot to galaxy would be much better becouse the projct name is b2g what means boot to gecko but it could mean boot to galaxy too !!!!

regards
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Ashtrix:
Well, I couldn't find any clue from Nexus S's development page...

If Nexus S gets successfully boot'd 2 gecko, then we could also expect that for our SGS.

If at all B2G also runs on low-end hardware like Winph7[256MB RAM and Old QSD-Snapdragon's which are actually snails] we can expect it any time sooner .

Anyways i'm in for testing ;) ..!

Goodluck in porting :) .
