Looking for Mini-usb to 3.5 jack cable

[TexasAlien]

I want to hook up my Mogul 6800 to my car stereo auxiliary jack and play music from the pda to the car radio. Has anyone run across such a plug/cable setup?

[jflorance]

I picked up this cable from either Seidio or wmexperts.com. I can't remember. I got it both with and without a microphone.

The "super reliable seller" is named nv_gear. Any relation? Or is that kinda like "Jones" 'round some parts?

[madmattco]

call me crazy but why are you all wanting to buy adapters when the mogul comes with them in the box? when i got mine it came with the splitter for the computer and charger, and a splitter for the charger and headphone jack

[purelithium]

The headphone jack included from HTC is a 2.5mm jack, 3.5mm is the standard "1/8th inch" stereo jack.

[miakayuuki]

Mine did not come with a 2.5 or any adapter for that matter. Seems Alltel did not see a need for them so they were not included. Does the 2.5 adapter that you had included allow you to hook up a standard cell phone headset, or is it some special connector meant for a stereo headphone?

[defaultdotxbe]

it lets you hook up a standard 2.5mm cell headset, i dont know if the jack is stereo or not but a 3.5mm plug wouldnt fit anyway

[TheSeanTeam]

You can buy a 2.5 to 3.5 adapter from Radio Shack.

[mgk]

I've purchased 3 of these over the years. Worked with my MDA, Hermes, and now Mogul. http://cgi.ebay.com/3-5mm-Stereo-Audio-Adapter-for-HTC-Wing-Mogul-PPC-6800_W0QQitemZ150202017990QQihZ005QQcategoryZ15040 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem $13.50 with shipping.

[chadman]

I just a 2.5-3.5 adapter off the deals extreme website for 1.40. This includes shipping. They are slow because it gets shipped out of Hong Kong, but I have ordered a lot of stuff from them and have good luck with it. Chad

I have been searching, but can't seem to resolve the question if the 2.5mm "out" from the HTC is in mono or not.
I am trying to use a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter(stereo) to listen to music in stereo but i have to pull the adapter out of the socket a little in order to get stereo....

Where is the problem coming from? the phone or the htc supplied 2.5mm jack/"out" (since the adapter is a stereo adapter)

thanks all!

This is a Crutchfield product, but I got mine on Amazon.com. Best cable for my car so far!

I just got this and it works great. The mini-usb part fits snuggly into the xv6800, unlike the splitter that came with the phone.

http://products.smartphoneexperts.com/content/accessories/73-75--2373.htm

The stereo/mono/having-to-pull-out-a-bit issue has to do not with 2.5mm-3.5mm conversion. It most likely has to do with 3-ring vs 2-ring.

Here's two sites that enlightened me on the ring issue. I wish I had known this before buying useless 2.5mm-3.5mm audio adapter from RadioShack.
1. http://dwsimms.blogspot.com/
2. http://qbranchblog.blogspot.com/2008/02/make-your-own-usb-to-25mm-adapter.html

So, the splitter that comes with xv6800 is a 2.5mm 3-ring system. When connecting to an audio device that doesn't have a mic, you need to go from 2.5mm-3ring to 3.5mm-2ring. I got a cheap adapter like this on ebay for $5 or $9, I can't remember.

great info you all...thanks so much

Here's a bunch i found and bookmarked when i was doing the same search about a month ago:

http://4ustuff.com/product.php?form=PDA%20AND%20SMARTPHONE%20ACCESSOR IES&mode=8&lag=&name=ADAPTER
lots of different adapters from a China, HK wholesaler.

just be careful if you get an audio only one that you plan to use with your OEM charging adapter (the one that is a plastic charge/EMUSB adapter) since if the audio adapter goes 90 degrees off to the right (if it were on your phone) then it will hit into your charging jack on that OEM adapter. you just need to look closely at the pics before buying.

i think i'm going to get a few of the ones from Semson's since they look like they will fit while my unit is in it's faceplate case and obviate the need for the OEM adapter (and it's cheap!).

[Spr0ckEt]

I bought them SEMSONS one a week ago, it didn't work at all. I tried it on a friends xv6800, worked flawlessly. I have since reflashed the phone, tried it again, works like a charm. It must have been something wrong with my phone. I purchased two more from them today.:)

[dhoopes]

I also got the semson's ones and they work great. They fit flush right up against the bottom of my mogul, so in my opinion, supports the connector well and does not create a stress riser on the connector like most of these things do. Also, it looks like it was custom-made to fit with my two-piece clear faceplate on. Absolutely flust and nothing gets in the way of anything.

[jamespaulritter]

Well thats not good. I just started shopping around yesterday for a mini USB to 3.5 adapter. Guess I better hold off.

[amurvine@hotmail.com]

Anyone having problems with thier 3.5 adapter not working. I have DCD's newest and am looking for an adapter, should I not be looking for one?

[JeffersonBetancourt]

Hey I hope you guys can help me, I just bought a mini USB to 3.5 stereo jack converter for my T-Mobile Wing. When I connected it to my speakers and stereo system for some reason the sounds that comes out is horrible. I can barely hear the song through the speakers, its really low and really distorted and when I touch the screen of the phone it makes a buzzing sound through the speakers. I dont know if the cable I bought is broken or thats normal because its a phone and not an iPod or something. Please reply with some answers. Thank you.

[mankimanki]

if your original 2.5 has a microphone than that is the problem.
