How to Hear My BlackBerry on My Car Speakers

You can connect your BlackBerry to your car speakers through your car stereo. Car speakers offer better sound quality than a headset or the phone's built-in speakers. Many newer cars come with an auxiliary audio jack for connecting a cell phone or personal audio player. Even if your car doesn't have an auxiliary audio input, you're not out of luck. You can purchase an FM transmitter that will broadcast the audio from the headset jack on a specific radio frequency.

Things You'll Need

  • 3.5 mm or 2.5 mm to 3.5 mm audio cable

Instructions

    • 1

      Plug the audio cable into the headset jack on your BlackBerry.

    • 2

      Plug the other end of the cable into the auxiliary jack on your car stereo. Most car stereos have the jack located on the faceplate, but some have it in other locations such as the center console. If you can't find the jack, refer to the manual for your car or aftermarket stereo.

      Switch the stereo to the auxiliary port. Look for a button labeled "AUX."

Tips & Warnings

  • If your stereo doesn't have an auxiliary input port, you can purchase a short range radio transmitter that connects to your BlackBerry's headset jack. Once you connect the transmitter to the headset jack, you simply tune the radio and the transmitter to the same frequency. Refer to the manual for the transmitter for specific instructions.

  • Older BlackBerry models have a 2.5 mm headset jack instead of 3.5 mm. Check the manual for your phone to verify which type of port it has.
