I am copy-pasting the relevant portion from Help - Cosplay (from our audio recorder app which is for Android) - it relates to how to connect the earphone jack to an external microphone and external speaker - i.e. a setup suitable for cosplay (but will give you some idea of the options):

Capabilities of the earphone jack on Android devices
The earphone jack on your device has pins for 2 channel (stereo) output, and 1 channel (mono) input. This is the case for both Android devices and iOS devices. That is, you can only have mono microphone input. This is why headsets have stereo earphones, but only one microphones (mono).
Here is a website with a good explanation of the earphone jack on your android device, and what the pins on the jack are used for (stereo out and mono in) - see the section - External microphone through the headset port.

Recommendations for Y-splitter cables and external speakers
For the external speaker, one with a wired connection will work, and these cost from 5 USD to 10 USD.
Y-splitters are also cheap (1 USD to 5 USD), but finding ones that actually work is more difficult (since headphone splitters look very similar, or the Y-splitter is made incorrectly).
Here is a combination of Y-splitter and external speaker that is recommended by cosplayers (the external speaker comes with a wearable directional microphone suitable for cosplay). These are costly, but known to work:

How would I connect a Bluetooth headset such as this to this
The application is projecting my voice from inside a helmet to a speaker on my chest. Currently I accomplish this with a AKER but it has to be wired and it interferes with removing my helmet. I am trying to make a micro wireless system without spending a lot, or adding a lot of weight.
I cannot use a netbook, has to be my smartphone (HTC ONE) as it is the only thing I can carry on my person.
I'll try to work out the App.
I am working with a [this speaker] (http://www.amazon.com/Philips-Sbt10-Bluetooth-Speaker-white/dp/B00H39NZQM/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1395823634&sr=1-1&keywords=sbt10), a HTC ONE android, and I have yet to settle on a bluetooth mic, but I have an off brand one lying around somewhere.
