My car is a few years old and doesn't have a place to plug in my EVO directly for playing music through the speakers.

What are some of my other options? I've have tried the gizmos that try to send the music to an FM station and play it that way, but those were very static-y and unreliable.

Any other ideas?

Do you have a cassette deck?
[EVO 4G Accessories] BrianDigital:
desides a fm transmitter or if you have a cassette player nothing really. its the holiday season so maybe someone will you a gift card so you can get a head unit with aux ports and maybe bluetooth
[EVO 4G Accessories] snowboarda42:
Deck with Auxillary in, or A2DP Bluetooth.

I bought a Kensington LiquidAUX Bluetooth car kit. Works great, crystal clear sound.

[EVO 4G Accessories] zone23:
A cassette deck now that funny stuff. Do you think anyone in the US still has a cassette deck? I remember the day metal cassettes were the best man they sounded awesome.

I really think your best bet is to buy a new deck. If your evo has the DSP manager it sounds great over bluetooth.

Actually, my 2007 Lexus GS350 has a cassette player, 6 disk changer and no aux port. I use the cassette adapter for IPOD and Evo.

Ha my old 66 Ford Fairlane still has the dual 8-tracks I put in it way back when. Course it has been garaged for years, but i'm going to have to go see if they still work now! Had two of them so I could rewind one while still listening to another.
[EVO 4G Accessories] TorxT3D:
you need an aux input adapter wired into your cd player/stereo for BEST sound.

goto your local car audio shop and ask, they'll know what you're talking about.

PIE is a great brand if you want to install yourself.

http://www.pie.net/

buy yourself a composite rca -> 3.5mm male adapter cable and connect it all up.

i got one in my 04 lincoln ls, i used my evo as my mp3 player and music player in the car. best auto investment ever, lol
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
Thanks will look into it :)
[EVO 4G Accessories] luma:
Can you tell us what year/model car you have and what stereo option (if any)? There may be a way to wire a bluetooth adapter in via external CD changer inputs if that option exists on your factory head.

This is what i use: http://www.amazon.com/Cygnett-GrooveTraveller-Transmitter-Charger-Adapter/dp/B001HNDSIK

it transmits and charges my ipod and has a AUX in on the side for my EVO. works great for me.

i have a sirius satellite radio (sportster 4 or 5) that has an aux jack in it. i connect a 3.5mm cable to it and the headphone jack of my phone and get perfect sound! only thing i have to do is pause the radio turn media volume up on my phone and it is just like a direct connection to my car radio.

A battery operated FM transmitter works without static, but they are increasingly difficult to find.
[EVO 4G Accessories] daveman2123:
Get a FM modulator, they are cheap & easy to install. The sound will be better than most transmitters.

I hook my Evo up to my aux on my head unit through the headphone jack to play music on the sd card or Slacker and it's always low sounding. Much lower than my regular cd's.
[EVO 4G Accessories] drp1:
I second this recommendation. I bought the Schosche modulator from Amazon for ~$28. Yeah, a new head unit with Bluetooth, HD, and aux in would have been nicer but also would cost a lot more.

The kit came with a small trim bezel containing the jack & a power switch; the bezel has a small piece of double-stick tape to mount somewhere on your dash. I pulled the jack & switch out, and mounted them directly in my dash, so it looks a bit more "finished."

The audio sounds good. There is a very slight hiss/crackle that seems to be coming from my car charger. If the charger is disconnected the sound is clean. The hiss is so small that I can't really hear it when there is music/podcast playing.

I would like to make a custom patch cable so I can wire in a microphone mounted up near my visor. This way I won't have to unplug the audio line when I get an incoming call.

I'm also using the Mountek mount described in another thread. It works well. Overall I'm quite happy. It didn't cost much and took less than an hour to install. I'm really enjoying Pandora & podcasts now during my commute time!

[EVO 4G Accessories] nabbed:
I'd recommend a real BT car kit. Like this:

http://www.parrot.com/usa/products/bluetooth-hands-free-car-kits

Those run anywhere between $50 and $300, and they are awesome. They turn on and off with the car, they don't need to be charged, and they automatically cut out stereo and use the car speakers. Plus they have internal voice recording and recognition in addition to android's.

The install will probably cost around $50-$80, and they may require a special harness which is around $20. Install takes about an hour or so.

I have been having problems with my seidio 3500 battery draing very fast.

[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
my phone hasn't arrive yet, so i can't check it myself

Can some one check in the stock Camera software to see if it has the Night Mode option?

if not, we should get a port over of the SGS camera App.apk which offers very good Night Mode even at near dark conditions

Thanks!
[Nexus S General] allen099:
Nope, no night mode. I did love that feature on my Vibrant as the flash will only work a certain distance. The camera app is the same (or at least looks it) as the stock builds for N1 or Cyanogen Mods. I would love to keep my stock camera, but add the SGS camera as a secondary app.
[Nexus S General] AllGamer:
thanks! for the confirmation.

okay, time to dig out the APK and files related to the stock SGS camera :D

and that is exactly the reason why i prefer the Night Mode, than a flash

the only use i have for the Flash is to use it as a flash lite :p to look for stuff in a dark room
[Nexus S General] allen099:
If you're gonna pull it, any way for you to name it something like SGScamera and post it up here? That way perhaps we can get it working in conjunction with the stock. I also loved the tap to focus, which stock doesn't have unfortunately.
[Nexus S General] dirk1978:
I think you'll get the same issue as when trying to pull the browser from the i9000; it won't run due to incompatibilities between froyo and gingerbread.

There are a few bits Samsung put in later galaxy s roms that would be nice to see in gingerbread. Its open source so why not?
[Nexus S General] nxt:
HUH? THERE IS NIGHT MODE.

Click the right most (or upper most) button, scroll down to "scene mod" and select NIGHT.

Only issue is, the camera preview slows to a crawl, but thats probably normal.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
this camera/phone has some of the best low light and night pictures i have ever seen from a phone
[Nexus S General] allen099:
Wow..hot damn. I'm sorry for the misinformation. I tried scrolling down in that menu the very first time I opened it and it didn't work, so I figured that was all. Thanks for the correction!!

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ogremage:
Goal: have an unbranded, unlocked HTC Desire HD, running on Vodafone (using the business 18-month 41.12 GBP plan).

This is so that I can get OTA updates from HTC and not have to use goldcards whenever updating, and also so I can use other, local SIM cards when abroad.

I went to my local High Street Vodafone shop and they said they have an "Open Market Version HTC Desire HD" in stock. They boot it up, and it does not show Vodafone logo on boot, and has no Vodafone apps installed. However, my O2 PAYGO SIM does not work with it, it says "Cannot connect to network". They think it does not have Vodafone software, but still comes locked to Vodafone.

Does that make sense? I thought the early versions were unbranded and unlocked. If it is indeed locked, will it be easy to unlock it?

The phone said it is:

Android 2.2

Baseband 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.15_M3

Kernel 2.6.32.21-gbe90714 htc-kernel at and18-2#1

Build 1.32.405.3 CL275498 release-keys

Software number 1.32.405.3

Model HD 19191

Serial HTOARRX03163

In other words, even if it won't have Vodafone bloatware, will my phone still be crippled compared to a completely stock one?

Anything else that I should check if I'm buying it besides part alignment?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvhttn:
Go to the Carphone Warehouse. Got mine there, not that contract I must admit, and their's is unbranded and unlocked. Don't know if they will do the VF business contracts though.

Dave
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ogremage:
dvhttn, thanks for the suggestion, but I didn't find them offering the kind of contract that I want. I need to call a lot of land lines, but don't send any texts, so the Vodafone business contract sounds perfect for me.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvhttn:
Yeah, I wanted a contract that would substitute minutes for texts but I think 95% of contracts just give you a gazillion texts by default. I've a 2 year contract that gives 300 minutes, 500MB/month and unlimited texts! Oh, and Vodafone passport so I can reduce call charges when abroad. £30/month which is about the going rate. I could certainly have got better if I'd had a lesser phone but wanted to upgrade on VF.

I use about 5 texts per month on a busy month so they're a bit wasted on me. Oh, and found that it's only text *texts* that are included. Send a photo as a text (MMS) and they get charged ..... At least I know now.

Anyhow, what I'm trying to say is don't get hung up on getting a contract with few texts included just because you don't use them as most contracts include them anyway.

Dave
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feckewe:
My upgrade from Vodafone was an openmarket handset and i can confirm that it comes unlocked, i had it running on a 3 sim for a few days while i transfered from my HD2.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andy:
If you still haven't purchased it, you could check the CID. A stock unbranded DHD would have CID: HTC__001 .

To check the CID.

1). Turn off HTC Fastboot - Settings > Applications > Untick "Fastboot"

2). Turn the phone off.

3). Hold Vol Down, then press Power.

4). When the bootloader starts up use the volume keys to scroll to "System Info"

5). CID will be displayed there.

Often I forget to return my phone to normal profile after having it on silent for a meeting or movie or the likes.

On my Nokia phone I had a little app that would let me switch to another profile (for example "silent") and define for how long, or until what time.

I really miss this functionality on my HTC Diamond2.

Does such a utility / app exist for win-Mo?

I've searched here and on Google, but couldn't find anything.

I need to restore my Nexus S

thanks!!
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
As far as I'm aware, and someone should correct me if this is wrong, but Google hasn't made the original ROM files available to us yet. So unless someone made a NAND backup prior to flashing anything, you're out of luck for the time being.
[Nexus S General] deez1234:
You can download one straight from ROM manager.
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
ROM Manager has the 2.3 to 2.3.1 update, not the original rom as far as I'm aware.
[Nexus S General] The K-Zoo Kid:
I apologize if there is already a thread like this, but the search wasnt working.. I know what i can do with my phone once it is rooted, I am just interested in what happens tot he actual phone. I could be wrong, but once i root it isnt it always possible to tell that i rooted it even if i unroot it so therefor all warantees are voided? sorry if im being unclear, i cant think of another way to explain it haha.
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
The language on the "warranty void" screen says that unlocking the bootloader "may" void your warranty. On the Nexus One, HTC usually honored the warranty if the issue was with anything hardware related and could not have been the result of software tampering. Granted, that's them and this is Samsung.

Further, unless there is something hidden in the system files that counts the number of times you unlock the bootloader, you can always relock it prior to sending it in for repair with fastboot oem lock.
[Nexus S General] The K-Zoo Kid:
So there is a way to kind of undo the root without them knowing? THanks a lot btw. I figured it was something like this.
[Nexus S General] jblade1000:
unlocking the bootloader and rooting are two different things
[Nexus S General] The K-Zoo Kid:
Ahh i have no idea what unlocking the bootloader does then.
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
In a nutshell, unlocking the bootloader means you will be allowed to flash non-Google/custom files to the system partition and more or less enables superuser access(aka root). Once thats done, then you "root" the device, push the Superuser.apk which will enable the rooted apps. Please check out the rooted section of my stickied FAQ for more detail on how to do this if you decide to. There are two great threads I link to.

Once you lock the bootloader, you lose access to the system partition and superuser I believe which effectively unroots it.
[Nexus S General] The K-Zoo Kid:
So basically if you want to do any sort of mods, flash roms, etc. you need to unlock the bootload and root. Thanks a lot for explaining that. I think i understand it now, but just to clarify, if i unlock the bootloader and root will i be able to get the phone back to stock without samsung knowing that i rooted/unlock the bootloader?
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
Yes, to mod/flash roms you need to unlock the bootloader. It's possible that sometime down the road someone may develop a method of gaining root access on the phone without touching it, but it's unlikely given the fact that we can both unlock and lock the bootloader very easily.

Right now, the answer is... more or less. If you make a NAND backup in Clockwork Recovery/Rom manager of your stock ROM, you can restore back to that, fastboot flash the closest thing we have currently to the stock recovery(check development section for this), then relock the bootloader. This will give the phone all appearances of being stock. Unless Samsung has something deep in the system files tracking the number of times you've unlocked/locked(which I doubt, since I'm sure such a system would have been found by now), you should be good to go.

Most people who have returned the phone to Best Buy have noted that they don't even power on the device or check to see if the bootloader is unlocked or if there's a custom recovery on there. But your mileage may vary.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Interesting stuff. I was under the impression that once clockworkmod is flashed there is no way to remove it at this time.

Reading this thread I'm guessing and hoping this is not the case?
[Nexus S General] littlesthobo:
I had clockworkmod installed but used rom manager to flash the 2.3.1 update and i've now got the stock bootloader back. I guess the ota update does the same? It would seem that getting back to stock is pretty easy.
[Nexus S General] unremarked:
My apologies, I posted that before I came to the same understanding regarding the stock recovery.

Like the poster above me mentioned there is a NAND backup of stock 2.3.1 you could restore to which has the stock recovery.
[Nexus S General] xspyda:
Thanks for the clarification. I'll do some more reading in the dev section :-)
[Nexus S General] The K-Zoo Kid:
Thanks a lot, this really helped me out a lot. I will proceed to rooting :D
[Nexus S General] Ry-Guy615:
So, just want to make sure I have this straight... You unlock the bootloader, load custom recovery, SU, and now phone is rooted. If you lock the bootloader, you lose root?

For me, I'm not big on custom roms since I just don't have time to keep things up to date or participate in the bug process, but I do like to maintain backups with Titanium (my primary reason for rooting). So by locking the bootloader down I will not be able to use Titanium. Furthermore, unlocking the bootloader wipes the device. So is there a reason one would not want to keep the bootloader unlocked? Have I completely misunderstood the system?
