[Q] USB-Audio (Fiio E17) for Ascend P6 (using USB On-The-Go / OTG) - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hi,
My friend bought good quality DAC(based on Wolfson) + Amplifier = Fiio E17.
Did someone managed to connect Fiio E17 to Huawei Ascend P6 ?
I tried today and Fiio E17 perfectly works as external DAC/Amplifier with HTC One. No any extra software required.
HTC simply detects Fiio just after connecting and re-route sound to external DAC from built-in speaker.
I tried with Ascend P6 and device support USB OTG (because pendrive works OK)
but while connecting in same way Fiio E17 nothing is detected and sound still play only from built-in speaker
/l3v

I have a Fiio E6. No problems other than the fact it's still quiet, but that is because the P6 audio is so quiet.

No wonder, the e6 is just an amplifier.
I'm actually quite surprised the e17 doesn't work, hope a sollution pop's up quick.

Small update: tried it with Fiio E7 and Beresford TC-7520SEG: doesn't work.
usb sticks do work with usb-otg cable
Hopefully a fix from Huawei comes quickly, or someone fixes it with a custom rom

Hi Kerwin,
Did you find any custom ROM which support it ?
I have checked "Android Development Section" for P6 on XDA and it doesn`t look good for now.
There is no any custom ROM released yet...
Did you find any guide what need to be modified / added in P6 file system to make it work ?
(after rooting of course

Nuforce icon2 wont work either. Its the same with galaxy s so its not just a huawei problem.

Hello it's not working either with my jds labs c5d. i'm using a mini to micro usb otg cable from jds labs...
they told me to restart my phone so that it maybe could initialize the dac but unforutnately it didn't...
i hpe someone can come up with a solution...
would the cyanogenmod work?

[Q] ExTERNAL DAC FOR N7000

Hello!
Anybody with a JB 4.1.1 ROM got a running external dac on the n7000 ?
ie Fiio E7.
Thanks!
Does 4.1.1 provide digital audio output from note? If so, would it be possible to connect it to stereo system using usb cable? I have Denon micro system and it has usb plug so you can plug in iPhone or iPad and it sounded great when I tryed it. If same thing would be possible with my note I would love it.

I know that the I9300 and the N7100 have a digital unprocessed line-out that you can connect to various digital devices and they can be used as a DAC.
I just wonder, if this feature has any hardware limitations or it's just the JB ROM?
If you have the USB HOST cable you can try connecting it to your DENON.

I recieved my cable yesterday but cannot find how to use the n7000 as a host. The sound still comes out through the phone speaker and nothing through the DAC.
Audio revolution will record to the phone via usb. Usb audio tester recognises my headphone dac as burr brown, but not able to utilise for audio transfer from phone to dac yet.
My current rom is "Ultimate N7000 XXLSC JellyBean 4.1.2 v5.1"
Has anyone had success with any other rom or kernel ?
Damm I'd love it worked. I want a dac on m'y note , yamaha sucks.

I'm also interested in this matter, I would like to have better audio.
Awaiting the results of their experience

Have you activated audio output in the settings under System/Dock?

Note N7000 to Denon AVR
I don't have a DAC but a Denon 1312 AVR with no USB. However, I connect the Note N7000 to the AVR via HDMI using the MHL Connector. Works great and gives near lossless audio when I play FLAC.

I have a fiio dac but can't use it with the note. There's no digital signal output to attach it to. Trust me. I've looked into it. I have to make do with using the headphone amp only, which is still a great improvement.
Sent from BOX13.
I have tried it with an OTG cable and my fiio E7 on jelly bean 4.2 (liquid smooth rom) but haven't had any succes yet. It is possible with the galaxy S3. And I think there should be a way to do it with the note too, since its able to transmit it trough HDMI.
There are some interesting threads on headfi about the matter.
Somebody should kickstart hdmi based DAC with built in power so we can skip mhl connection size can be as big as note as long is not thick... all n7000 / n7100 will rejoice
You here it first from here

Probably very, VERY LATE in the game. But I have a Note 1, N7000 version that I'm trying to revive purely as a DAP. I've read that only the SGH i717 model supports audio over USB (via OTG). Can anyone confirm? Is there a ROM that can be used for the N7000 version that will allow audio over USB? Thanks.

[Q] USB Audio Out?

Can anyone who owns the G3 confirm that USB Audio Out (over an OTG cable) works through a DAC? I can't seem to find any information that confirms or discounts that this works.
Thanks!

It does work with my Fiio E17. Just tried it today after almost buying an app that was supposed to do so. My only complaint is that the DAC seems to be charging while connected to the G3.

Thanks, Jesadac! That's great news... I was hoping this was the case, as I believe the G2 also supported it.
I assume you're referring to the USB Audio Player Pro app? It truly doesn't replace the native ability to have a clean digital audio out signal for all sounds out of the phone.
I have the Fiio E18 and a friend has the VZW G3. We just tested the combo and it seems to work fine.

Just bought the new Cayin C5 DAC/Amp. My TMo LG G3 does not put audio out though the amp when connected via OTG. It registers it's connected I'm guessing because all audio is no longer played through the phone. Plugged into my friends Note 4 and it worked right away. Is this is G3 problem? We're both on Lollipop.
I know this is an old thread... but do I still need USB Audio Player Pro to get USB DAC to work? I thought Android 5.0+ brings USB audio, and right now my Beyerdynamic A100 doesn't work by "simply" plugging it in... however I do get about half second of audio and quits.
I go on LG G3 with app USB Audio Player PRO and HibyMusic app, my DAC is Hegel HD2 and DragonFly RED. Logitech USB headphones works too. with China OTG cable.
I can confirm Spotify and youtube doesn't play audio through usb (android 5.1.1), and it still mutes integrated speaker when connected:silly:. Must have usb-player i guess.

Compatible USB DAC/Amp?

Hi, I've found that the headphone output of this phone, while good for some headphones, has too much noise for sensitive IEMs and not enough power for some less efficient headphones, so I'm looking into a portable DAC/Amp. I tried this one with a USB-C adapter:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FJSEAZ4
But it didn't work. I know the USB-C adapter works, as I've used it with a thumb drive, and I know the DAC works on other Android devices, but apparently compatibility isn't universal. So has anyone successfully tried a portable DAC with this phone?
My Fiio Q1 works fine with the phone.

Thanks, that's good to hear. I was considering one of Fiio's products
I tried this one: http://hifimediy.com/android-dac
Works very well together with an USB B to C converter that supports USB OTG and drove even my good old 600 Ohm AKG K 141 loud enough!
It has a Sabre DAC. Bought it out of concern that the sound of the phone might not be good enough. But it is - at least with low impedance headphones like my Ultimate Ears UE 10 TF I don't find a difference to the 180 $ sony walkman of my GF.
(Small remark: Used a Samsung USB B to C converter first. This one, while doing very well on the PC and with ADB and also with the charger did not work as OTG adaptor.)

Weird, that's the exact one I tried that didn't work. Maybe I needed a different USB-C OTG adapter

For sure. It works for me without problems - plug and play.
I use this adaptor: http://www.delock.com/produkte/G_65678/merkmale.html
Side note: While I could use the Samsung adaptor for charging (but not for OTG devices) this one works well for OTG - but not for charging.
Edit: The price for te DAC on the amazon side is way higher than if you buy directly from the Hifimediy website.
And you should also note, that this DAC while it's pretty good for higher impedance phones did not work well with my low (32 ohm) impedance IEM's. But for those I found no need to use the DAC.
I ended up with a Fiio E18, I like the fact that it has playback control, plus B&H has it on sale right now. It doesn't seem to work with Poweramp, but it works perfectly with USB Audio Player PRO.

Will USB Audio Player read OTG storage?
Most file explorers do not see mnt/media_rw/0EB0-0FF. Do any players?
Quick, and hopefully not too stupid, question, do I need to root the phone to get the DAC working with Google Play Music?

USB Audio not working?

Hi guys!
I haven't found any thread on this topic, excuse me if there is one after all!
So, I bought a P2 two days ago and am very very happy with it! My only problem at the moment is, that it seems to not deliver usb audio. When I plug in my Fiio E07k DAC, It will charge through the phone but the phone won't output music. I tried it with Neutron and USB Audio Player pro. With my Nexus 6 before that, I just plugged in the AMP and everything worked. I could even define an app starting when the Fiio was detected.
WIth the Lenovo it doesn't work at all. I tried it with the cables I normally use and also with the supplied USB OTG adapter. No luck.
Please help! I'm locken and unrooted on Stock Nougat 7.0
Cheers,
MoWe
Today, I got a replacement unit from amazon. USB Audio isn't working either. Also it was much worse build wise, so I will stick with my first unit for now.
Could somebody check, if usb audio works with a custom rom and is just a problem of the official rom?
Cheers,
MoWe
Update.
In the Lenovo forum, I got the answer from a Motorola tech agent, that a USB Headset worked great for them through the bundled OTG Adapter.
Is somebody here, who can verify this? I haven't got an USB Headsets.
And maybe there is somebody who has a USB DAC of any kind at their disposal and would try it out... That would be very much appreciated!
Cheers,
MoWe
Hi Guys!
Here is an update!
Today I was in a local HiFi store which is the only one in Hamburg to sell Fiio equipment, I know of.
I tried out different USB DACs on my Lenovo P2. An Audioquest Dragonfly red, an Oppo HA-2SE, Chord Mojo and a second USB Stick kind of DAC I can't remember the name.
The two USB Stick DAC worked flawlessly right from the plug in! Perfect!
The Oppo was recognized and charged but I could get any music routed through it and the Chord Mojo did the same as my fiio, nothing.
So I summary, USB audio works in the Lenovo P2 but only with certain devices. The drivers seem to be modified from the stock google drivers in this regard.
Hope, the update helps some people!

Using a USB dac with the Samsung A70

Has anyone managed to get a USB dac working without using UAP pro?
I have a Hidizs S3 that works perfectly through UAP pro, unfortunately my current music streaming service (Amazon music HD) isn't supported by UAP.
If I use the dac without going through UAP it is just used as a dumb extension cable and the dac isn't used.
Many thanks for any suggestions.
I tried, but sound quality is just not good without UAP.
I am rooted with Viper4Android
Thanks, stupidly I upgraded to this phone thinking it would be a step up in sound quality. It wasn't. So I bought a USB dac. That doesn't work properly ?
