Motorola MPx220
...and speaking of listening to MP3's on your phone
Could someone tell me if an adapter exists that would allow me to plug standard stereo headphones into my phone using a plug adapter?
As you know, manufacturers (in their infinite wisdom) chose to design mobile phones using 2.5mm jacks. Well, that happens to NOT be the size that cheap, walkman-like headphones use. I've tried Radio Shack's adapter but sound only comes out of one side.
Motorola sells stereo headphones (model HS120) but they cost between $20-$30: a ridiculous price.
Those of you that are listening to MP3's on your phones, what solution have you come up with?

$4.95 there, but sound quality will be slightly compromised.

Try pulling the Radio Shack adapter out about 1 or 2 millimeters and you'll get stereo sound. I don't know if it's the Radio Shack adapter or the phone, but I had the same problem until I moved the adapter out just a bit.
Sounds great once you do that!

Hi all.
Anyone seen/tried a ROM update to improve volume in the earpiece and microphone yet?
I have read that one was being tested but haven't seen it out yet. Just curious/HOPEFUL!
thanks...

C'mon, currytk. Pulling out the Radio Shack adapter a couple of millimeters is not a REAL solution.
In fact, it's rather embarrassing that this phone, with all of its faults, also adds this one to the list.

I realize it's most likely a phone issue, but I've only tried the Radio Shack adapter.
I agree that for the price of this phone, the adapter should work. However if you use the method I provided, be sure to edit the system volume on the "Headset" profile, or every time you move between songs on the playlist, you'll get a really loud click.
