[q] samsung galaxy a3 a300h/ds usb audio - Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

I just want to ask you guys if A3 is capable of OTG usb host? Because I am planning to use it as a source for my DAC. Any audiophile out there? If not I will just be using the 3.5mm to 3.5mm input for my headphone amp. Thank you!

No, unfortunately A3 does not support OTG usb host

But is that a hardware limitation or stock firmware? So perhaps future cm roms could bring usb host otg feature to Galaxy A3 (A300FU)?

Usually it s not a hardware limitation, i don't know the case of the A3, the problem is in the kernel since it doesn't support otg, I dont expect future roms to bring this feature cuz the problem is more complicated than it seems especially with the touchwiz roms

[Q] usb host

Is there any way to have the usb host functionality on our beloved atrix with a custom rom? i read that ics will have it, is it true?
Have a Mutimedia dock (the more expensive one) or a webtop? See the USB ports? Atrix supports USB OTG as standard with docks BUT wothout a gock, you need a powered OTG cable

ICS is suppose to have the usb host functionality. I watched the keynote and they hooked the SGN up to a treadmill and played a game lol.

Nexus 4 USB DAC Compatibility

I know there was a workaround to get USB audio to work with the Nexus 7, but would this work with the N4 as well?
Potentially, but we'll need a kernel that supports it first. So I wouldn't expect anything for a few weeks at best.

I'm hoping it will at least be compatible with the E17.
Any word on this yet?
/me chomps at the bit
Really curious about the plausibility of using my iBasso D-Zero with my N4, will donate well for a solution!
Could someone please test this app with a USB DAC? I would really like to know if it works with the N4. It is supposed to provide USB DAC support without using custom kernels. I dont have a DAC right now unfortunately...

In the description, it states that it will not play audio from other programs. So it's pretty much useless for all other purposes other then playing recordings from the program.
I'm just looking for a way to hook up my N4 by USB to my car's AUX input. Any suggestions?
Well, the idea is pretty neat, I like it.
But really, the s4 chip does not have really impressing SQ.
Better buy a FiiO USB DAC, wich is only 100$ and gives you really nice quality.
Though, using a galaxy s1 i9000 and it's wolfson chip as USB DAC would be really really nice...

Did you buy Samsung's Official MHL-adapter 2.0?
Original not I just read something that it must be the original that true?

We had a noname MHL-adapter lying around, it worked fine with my gfs Sony Xperia Z but not with my Note 3.
I think it has to do with the pins, MHL 1.0 only has 5 pins vs MHL 2.0 which has 11 pins.
First thing is, we don't know what cable you're using... how many pins? 11 pins is required for 3rd generation MHL 2.0.
Also, we don't know what ROM you're using? Custom roms, especially non tw based, often have issues with MHL, or don't work with it at all.
More info, better help.

Possibilities of USB C on Nexus Devices?

We have seen that on Macbook air 1 USB type C port has been utilized not just for charging but also being used as display port as well using an external adapter.
Will Nexus 6P/5X have such functionality using an additional adapter or directly may be to connect to HDMI TVs or connect OTG drives?
No. Disabled.
OTG should work, HDMI will not. I'm interested to see if the Pixel C has HDMI enabled. I would expect it to.

It does, and Google even sell a C-HDMI adaptor for that (only listed in the 'works with Pixel' section, though - not the Nexus sections).
Otg works... They confirmed and sell it on the store

I'd be curious if we could re-enable it through root, or if it's a hardware limitation.

It's not "disabled", just N6P doesn't have USB Type-C 3.1.
Could you please explain more?
In the Type-C spec (.zip found here http://www.usb.org/developers/docs/) it defines what pins and wires are used for what. In a Type-C port or cable there are 2 dedicated pins/wires for USB 2.0. For USB 3.1 communications there are dedicated shielded twisted pair wires used for high speed communication. To support Display Port/HDMI, the Type-C port switches the use of those high-speed data wires over to that kind of output. (I think they called this alternate mode.) Anyway, the Nexus devices only support the USB 2.0 mode. It is unclear to me which of these is the case, but it basically means that either the USB controller in the phone can't support it, or the physical pins in the port are missing to connect and use those high speed wires. (Or both.)
It is possible it is just disabled in software, but that doesn't quite make sense to me. Why include all the hardware you need to enable USB 3.1 speeds, HDMI output, and a slew of other features such as USB-PD... But simply choose not to enable them? Seems far more likely to me that the lower cost of the USB 2.0 only mode (less complex controller and port) were used instead.
Hope that helps.
