Hey all

I just ordered this clip and am excited to get it. I am just wondering if any of you geniuses can add the software to our Sensations to support the aptX audio enhancement CODEC?

http://www.htc.com/www/smartphones/accessories/htc-car/

Premium music for those on the go

Wirelessly stream music from your HTC phone through your car stereo speakers with the Car StereoClip (Aux). Just plug the adaptor into a 3.5mm auxiliary port, and listen to premium, authentic sound thanks to embedded apt-X enhancement.
[HTC Sensation] totalundone:
Are you on Sense 3.6 or 4.0? Either way you should let us know how it works w/ your sensation.

Maybe that's why we're having BT issues on 4.0 ports... the new codec? meh, just a random thought.
[HTC Sensation] hortaja:
I am on Android Revolution HD 6.6.3 XE so Sense 3.6

The Stereo clip should be shipping at the end of this month.
[HTC Sensation] DJCodeBlue:
I'm very excited for this! I've been looking for a good adapter for AGES! I was about to buy a bluetooth adapter to a headphone jack to stream my phone audio to the car stereo via bluetooth to headphone jack. But this looks perfect and reliable. Hopefully it'll work out
[HTC Sensation] muffnman:
How did you order it? It's not for sale on that website.

[HTC Sensation] mitch27:
Just wanted to add that this dongle has an imbedded battery (6-8 hour estimated), with a micro USB charging port.

I hope to be able to hide this away in my car, and run continuous power to it so I don't have to take it back out again. Hopefully some reviews with good info come out :D
[HTC Sensation] naddie:
Since it's a Bluetooth adapter, would it work with other phones via A2DP? Or does it work specifically with HTC phones using a proprietary connection/codec (aptx)?
[HTC Sensation] dgenx210:
The way I understand it is that it'll work on either.
[HTC Sensation] hortaja:
Hey all, well the HTC Car StereoClip came in today. I am very pleased, it works just like advertised. It lets me connect via Bluetooth to the clip and play Music thru to my car stereo. When a call comes in it defaults to regular phone earpeice mode and does not try to play the phone call thru bluetooth.

First quick impressions, audio quality is fine. What I am really wondering is would audio quality really jump up in quality if we had the aptX audio enhancement CODEC in the Sensation?

[HTC Sensation] gbarayah:
Have you used an auxillary cable to play audio through your car stereo before using the clip? If so, how would you say the audio quality compares?

I currently use an aux cable to play music through my stock stereo on my TSX but the quality is pretty mediocre...
[HTC Sensation] floriank:
OK, so I guess that means that the phone (One X in my case) can't connect to both this device AND my bluetooth built-in car kit - one for streaming music and one for phone calls?

My car (BMW) has a factory Bluetooth kit installed but, unfortunately, it doesn't support music streaming. I have been using a cable to connect my phone's head phone socket to the AUX-in port of the car and this has been working fine. Music streams via the cable and get's muted when a call comes in via the Bluetooth kit and then un-muted when the call finishes.

I was hoping to pair my phone to both Bluetooth devices and have them working

simultaneously

, one for music output and the other for phone calls.

Too much to ask for?
[HTC Sensation] Davwf26:
Software fix?

...When a call comes in it defaults to regular phone earpeice mode and does not try to play the phone call thru bluetooth...

It really quite stupid that you can't also use this devise for phone calls. When a call comes in, it should remain using the BT. I wander if there is a way to make it work? Perhaps some sort of software or app or something to make this happen...
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I guess thats why they also sell the car mic (v100) as a separate piece to the car accessories stuff.

I have both on order, but both are in backorder. Expansys.usa for the car mic and sprint.com for the stereo clip. I'll let you all know how it all works together.
[HTC Sensation] darkoravenko:
Can you confirm that indeed call does not come through even when there is only a single device pared (mobile and A100)? That would really be shame as this might have been the perfect solution for hands free calling, having mic from the phone for outgoing audio and car speakers for incoming audio.
[HTC Sensation] lacrossev:
The easiest way to tell is just to look at the bluetooth pairing settings for the stereoclip, is it just pairable as a media device, or media as well as phone?
[HTC Sensation] hortaja:
Hey All

Ok I wanted to give an update. I am extremely please with StereoClip.

My car is a 2005 Cadillac STS with Nav and factory Blue-tooth for phone but does NOT support Blue-tooth Audio. So I have had to use the AUX in for Pandora until now. The stereo is the factory 15 speaker BOSE system plus a Kicker 10" sub in a custom fiberglass enclosure with its own 1,000 watt amp.

Tonight I just compared the sound quality of Blue-tooth vrs being wired/plugged in. I was nicely surprised that I could not tell a bit of difference in quality. This was done parked in my garage with the car on. I listened to Jazz, Rap, Latin, and Techno. I listened for bass quality, highs, openness, and to my surprise I could not truly tell how I was connected. I was positive that being connect via blue-tooth I was NOT going to get the same sound quality, that I would give up some quality for convenience. Well at least in my 15 min quick test of starting a song listening to it for a min or so then switching how its connected to the car stereo and continuing the song I could not hear any difference. Very happily surprised.

Then I drove for dinner and decided to see if my phone would also pair to my car at a blue-tooth cell phone at the same time will listening to music and it did. My Sensation was paired to the HTC StereoClip and to the Cadillac at the same time. I made a phone call, Pandora paused, The call connected I spoke for a min or two then hung up and then Pandora resumed. All worked perfectly.

So the StereoClip works perfectly. I'm thrilled.

Thanks HTC.

P.S. the only little annoying thing is, for me to pair to it I have to actually press the pairing butting on the StereoClip and then tell my Sensation to connect to it. So its two additional steps I need to do EVERY TIME I get in my car. Kinda a hassle but I feel its better than seeing a wire and being hard wired to the car....
[HTC Sensation] DDeveryday:
I'm glad you like it! I'm curious of what ROM you are using right now. And would you mind testing it on AOSP based ROM??
[HTC Sensation] hortaja:
Please see attached screen shot to see the exact ROM.

I just rooted my phone (any phone) for the first time several weeks ago. I am extremely please with how my phone works. Someone asked if I could try a different ROM, honestly I'm a believer if it works don't fix it, so I really don't wish to mess with a new ROM for now. So sorry.

[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Got my Stereo Clip in today

And I must say is very nice! I use to use the aux cable to connect the phone to the head unit but with this lil puppy its just bad a$$!

My setup:

I have a BlueAnt S4 (on sale btw on dailysteals.com for 20 bux in the USA I think, sorry!) and that plays media through its speaker. So all my navi voice prompts can be heard through the S4. And the profile the S4 supports is phone audio of course and media audio.

Now I introduce the HTC Car A100. Pairing was easy peasy. Then jumped in the truck to see how this works. I pulled up poweramp and started a track. Then turned on the bluetooth on the phone. Now both the S4 and A100 is connected to the phone. However when connected the music started playing though the S4.

I then went into the bluetooth profile of the BlueAnt S4 and unchecked the media profile. This will then in turn only be used for phone calls only, which works because the A100 cannot play the calls through the speakers. I restarted the track and viola, the music started to stream smooth as silk through my speakers. And it's nothing like the FM transmitters for ipods, this is clear as my aux cable!

I have to say I have not received a call yet with both running. I'll report back on how this functions in my setup. I hope it works lol...
[HTC Sensation] smerduh:
What's the range with this thing? Heard before that it's no so good. Is there any similar device with better range? I'd like to use it home in my room and it would be nice if i could move around in my room with phone and the music would't stop. About 20feet of range would be very nice.
[HTC Sensation] novco007:
Can anyone confirm if the unit works, whilst being charged?

I have another unit that I purchased from Amazon and it only operates when on battery, as soon as you plug it in to charge, it disconnects and can not be connected to.

If this unit can be continually plugged in, that would be perfect and I'll order one ASAP.

Thanks

[HTC Sensation] cunnyrydah:
I have had the stereoclip for a month now and I must say the clarity is top notch. I can pair via the factory setup for answering calls and the stereoclip at the same time (LTEvo). It can also be used while charging. I also used it to make my beats studio headphones into a wireless set and they sound fantastic. Much better sounding than the beats wireless. The range is not so great. Will work in a bedroom, in a car or even how I set it up to my headphones. But you won't be able to leave the room, walk downstairs without your phone etc. The range isn't like most bluetooth devices (30 ft.) I would stay within 5-10 ft. for optimal performance. I would highly recommend this just for the amazing sound that no other bluetooth I have ever tried can come close to. Apt-x is the only way to go if you do decide to buy a competing model. Maybe kleer?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
Yes the unit works while charging. I do it all the time :).

+1 below. The clarity is much like the AUX cable but without the cable. Very worth the cost IMO and it charges with the same micro usb like a lot of my other bt devices so it's a win+win for me!

The unit auto connects if left on. I have both the BlueAnt S4 that is left on during work days and I sometimes leave my clip on as well. And by the time I sit in the car and dock it, the bt devices have connected.

I used the clip to while listening to turntable.fm. Great device. :good:
[HTC Sensation] tsrzealot:
Hey guys, thanks for all the testing and especially for checking out if charging the device will lead to a disconnect (which you said it doesn't, and that's exactly what I'm looking for).

This may be a stupid question, so please bear with me. I am trying to do the exact opposite of what you guys are doing. Imagine the following situation: I have an AV-receiver in my living room that has internet radio, DLNA streaming and all such kinds of goodies. It also has Zone 2 outputs. Now, I want to be able to listen to a Zone 2 source in a different room, but it's impossible to get cables from the AV-receiver to the other room. Hence, I was thinking about a way to transmit the signal of the Zone 2 outputs wirelessly to speakers in the other room(s). My question therefore is: Does this device work the other way round? Could I connect this to an audio source via its headphone jack (or something similar) and have it transmit the audio signal via Bluetooth to Bluetooth speakers? Could anyone of you who owns this device test it like this? Or do you guys have other suggestions for me? It seems like what I'm trying to do is pretty uncommon, am I missing anything?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
I don't think the Stereo clip can work independently like that going the "other way". But have you looked at this? And is this what you are looking to do?

http://reviews.cnet.com/home-entertainment/belkin-bluetooth-music-receiver/4505-6449_7-34505053.html
[HTC Sensation] tsrzealot:
Thanks for the link! From what I understand the Belkin works just like the HTC Audio Bridge, but the other links below that article gave me a few new ideas. I think I just did a wrong search by looking for a "bluetooth audio transmitter", I think I should be looking for "wireless aufio transmitters", because there seem to be a few on the market (even though they're quite pricey). Anyway, thanks for the suggestion, that really helps!
[HTC Sensation] mouthpiec:
hi .... i am interested to buy this stereo clip for my One X ..... maybe my questions were already answered in previous posts but I think answers were not straight forward:

1) Can this be used during calls? ie steam voice calls to the car speakers?

2) If the device is kept on, but not paired with a mobile, will it shut down automatically? My intention is to connect it to the AUX I have under my armrest, and keep it connected also the the adjacent power socket. My problem is that I do not want to switch it on every time I need to use it. And will the phone pair automatically once it is nearby?
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
1. Nope.

2. Nope.
[HTC Sensation] mouthpiec:
thanks again,

so when I need to make a call with the BT attached, what I need to do on the phone ?

---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------

Hi again

your second Nope is for:

will it shut down automatically?

or for:

will the phone pair automatically once it is nearby?

thanks
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
If you have a bluetooth speakerphone paired up, the audio will stream there.

The second nope is that it will NOT shut off after a time-out period. The clip will continue to be on until you manually shut it off. However, if you have it on, the clip may pair automatically. I think it does for the ONE X. On the Sensation, it doesn't always pair up for me, but I know it can.

Probably not what you want to hear for a 50 dollar piece of hardware, but I can wholeheartedly recommend it. The music transfer beautifully when I use poweramp. I can actually feel the bass, which says a lot!
[HTC Sensation] dieselnutjob:
I read all four pages of this, but I would still like to clarify something. Maybe I'm a bit thick...

1. I understand that the unit does not shut off. However, I would like to bury a bluetooth receiver inside the dash of my car. I would wire it into the CD changer input on the back of the stereo (yes I know how to fool the stereo into listening to that interface), and I would also bury a charger behind the dash wired into ignition switched power. So it would be on charge whenever the car is driven but won't flatten the battery if it's parked at the airport for three weeks. Is it safe to assume that I will never have to get access to it once it has been initially configured?

If it is not safe to do this, and I put it somewhere where it is accessible, and charged from ignition, how often and under what circumstances would I have to access it?

2. If I don't have any bluetooth car kit or anything in the car, can I then route phone call audio through the car speakers. I understand that it can't route phone call audio through both a handsfree kit and an audioclip, but I don't have any handsfree kit. I have found that the mic built into the phone seems to be sensitive enough to pick up my voice so can I use the built in mic and an audioclip for a phone call instead of a handsfree kit?

3. I use a bluetooth GPS receiver in my car because a: the car has an athermic windscreen which blocks GPS, but with a receiver in the rear window it works fine, and b: the phone uses a tasker script to use presence of the GPS receiver to trigger some "in car" actions. Will there be any problem to be paired to (and use) the GPS receiver and to an audioclip at the same time?

thanks for any advice

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------

actually I think question 3 is answered here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1778576
[HTC Sensation] kpjimmy:
If you have it connected to lets say, a cig charger, then yes, you can leave it on that way. But like you said, if you are parked at the airport for 3 weeks and go back, you may find the unit DOA, but let it charge for about 20 mins and you should be good to go and hit connect on your device.

I would recommend a place where you can get to it relatively easily would be ideal.

If your mic on your device is that sensitive, then you can use it that way.

I think you did answer your question in that other thread. I have the BlueAnt S4 (bt handsfree for phone calls) the audioclip AND an OBD II device connected to the same device, but I use 2 out of the 3 at most at a given time. However, if you are playing music and have the gps on at the same time, you may get conflicts and that may not work. I'll need to test that out on my way home for lunch. GPS and Audio...I'll report back a bit later on that.

Happy modding! :)

EDIT:

To report back. If you have gps on and music flowing to the audioclip, music (i use poweramp) is primary over audioclip. For me, using the phone, I have to use the phone and nothing comes over the speakers at that point. Kind of odd, I used to when I first used the audioclip. Maybe if the music player is not running? I got to test out further I guess. I use my blueAnt S4 for calls and can be used in conjunction of the audioclip. Not a bad combo IMO.
[HTC One X] darqadius:
I have decided to change bootanimation and downanimation on my HOX after rooting and flashing with ARHD 5.1.0. I have found black version of stock animation and by using root explorer replaced both zips. Very simple. Bootanimation worked fine but downanimation did not work at all... blank screen. tried replace the file again but did not help. I have opened the zip and renamed all files so it looked just as in original animation, but still nothing. I gave up and copied original file back and WTH ?? screen still blank on shutting down no animation or whatsoever.

I was forced to flash whole ROM again which helped thankfully.

After a while I thought to myself that there must be a reason or a way to do it properly.... Maybe there was a bug or something and if Ill try again on fresh ROM it will work. But NO!! it did not, bootanimation changed ok but downanimation after replacing the file was disappearing and I could not reverse it.

Then I came up with an idea that maybe I could replace the files in a flashable zip file of a ROM... I am not a developer and I have not been sure it that will destroy the integrity of a file and could lead to a brick. But I decided to give it a go, replaced the files in the ROM file and flashed it again.

After rebooting bootanimation was as I wanted it and downanimation worked as well... whoop whoop... but when I wanted to install some MODs I fallen into bootloop... thankfully I get out of it and now its all working as I wanted.

So summarizing:

If somehow you find impossible to change downanimation try to replace it in the ROM's zip and flash it.

But do it at your own risk .... :]
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Did you try Checking the Default.xml file to see if it points to your Downanimation?
[HTC One X] darqadius:
I did not but animation worked before replacing the file, then it stopped working after replacing and it did not work after copying back original file ... so it would not be that ....
[HTC One X] shadowboy23:
The trick I use to do is to put the boot animation or down animation in the ROM before flashing it to the device. Worked like a treat.
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Is it just me or has HTC Approached It's Media Campaign of the One Series in completely the wrong way?

The Advert I'm talking about is the one with the Student taking photos during freefall, in my opinion as an advert is pretty poor as it doesn't invoke any emotion nor show you much about the phone.

Adverts HTC should take not from are the Galaxy Nexus 'Pure google' advert in the UK and the New Internet Explorer 9 advert in the UK.

99% of people aren't like us on XDA and already know the phone inside out before the Adverts even air, they need to be shown in those few seconds that the phone is for them, and I wouldn't get that from this advert.

Just sharing my thoughts, what are your opinions?
[HTC One X] dan_ep82:
Totally agree is a waste of time advert
[HTC One X] huwwatkins:
Its not great - but compare it to the Xperia advert which is horrible!
[HTC One X] treebill:
The ie advert is beautiful advertising, also love the song on it :)
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Kind of wasted though, as It's IE, everyone already has it, and if they don't, It's because they've installed a new one and don't want it in the first place.

but yeah, that Advert is great and HTC should learn from it
[HTC One X] Mcyates:
The one with the kid talking on with the Robots?

I think thats a great advert!
[HTC One X] huwwatkins:
Thats the one! I find it really annoying to watch.

The IE advert I think is more about them saying 'hey look! we're not crap anymore!'
[HTC One X] DJ Set:
When I was looking for a new phone a month ago, One X caught my attention with it's design. White One X is just gorgeous. When I saw the specs inside, other phones came out of question anyway and I wanted only this one then. After I saw the ugly SGS3, it just confirmed that my choice was correct.

In my opinion the advert is focused on the design and the best highlight of the phone - the camera. And HTC represented it very good. The rest (specs, other features etc) is just a minor matter.
[HTC One X] dannysmith43:
I can't even get a decent picture when my 9 month old is flapping his arms without blur, Nick taking pictures whilst freefalling @ 100-something mph? JOG ON NICK!
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
We, the jaded, probably aren't who the ad is targeted at. HTC focusing on the camera and audio I'm sure is based on market research as to what features resonate with the target audience. This bigger video's probably going to be cut up and shortened and used in commercials too. Parts of it are pretty good.

[YOUTUBE]8yMuu2QG9ss[/YOUTUBE]

This on the other hand is horrible. It might as well be for life insurance. The whole "for humans" thing Samsung's pursuing is designed to make an evolutionary phone appear revolutionary.

[YOUTUBE]oxiR5aczVu8[/YOUTUBE]
[HTC One X] TommUK:
Right, yes, If HTC chose to Edit that full video and use that as It's TV commercials I feel they'd have a better response, as it actually emvokes at least some feeling, and shows the phone being used.

I agree with the S3 Advert being Pish, but the style of it is tried and tested (By none other than who they copy-Apple) and will of course work.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Apple's commercials are stylized but always include the device itself solving problems for people using it. Would you have gotten that two SGS3's being placed against each through glass meant pics and videos were being shared if you didn't know about S-Beam? Saying the phone "understands you" without showing how raises more questions than it answers and isn't as memorable. It'll sell in the gazillions without any advertising so Samsung's no worse off.
