Default [Q] Wired remote controller for MT4G?

Is there a remote controller that DOES NOT have headphones?

I want to see if I can use it in my car with dual splitter so that one

can be just used as remote controller while another can be hooked up to the

car AUX system.

It's bit annoying to touch phone every time to skip music while on driving.

The remote works by using the mic and ground leads to signal button presses. You are going to have to use an HTC headset connected directly to the phone (not a splitter) if you want the buttons to work.

My suggestion would be to hack an HTC headset to give you a headphone jack instead of earbuds. I have done this myself, and it works great. Alternatively, you could build something specifically for this purpose with a box and some nice buttons and install it in your dash. If you want the schematic on HTC's remote, look here:
