Will oneplus2 supports type c headphones??? - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anybody tell me please...

I hope, it'll support. Because previously I used Le-Echo type c earphones and they worked. But sound wasn't good enough.

Yes it does but I would avoid using them on a OnePlus device the USB c ports are poor quality and break easily. Your cables will end up just falling out.

USB C headphones never worked for me, not on Lollipop Oxygen OS nor in Lineage 15.1 I am currently on. I have used Leeco headphones to try. They seem to light up, but no sound. I can even control / skip tracks by the button on the headphone. I have read somewhere that plugging it in and enabling OTG makes it work? Not sure how to do that in Lineage 15.1. I think its enabled by default.
Would appreciate if someone who know it works @Ryus71, @yogeshsharmagamerz tell how?
Thanks.

I never managed to get otg to work on the oneplus 2 on LOS or stock

Out of everything it looks like OTG was never intended to work or be supported

I know this is kinda old thread, but I tried Leeco USB C headphones with my OP2 running Lineage OS 17, latest weekely (26 December 2020 build) and I can get awesome music from them!
So somehow they seem to be working now, as previously they did not work on stock or even PE / LOS roms.

[Q] Audio over USB with Android 5.0

I know there have been threads in the past about the Nexus 4 not being able to support outputting audio over USB, but now that stock Android 5.0 supports it, can the Nexus 4 do it?
I'm using the factory 5.0 images and I have an external DAC/amp that I want to use (Fiio e18) that's made for Android, but nothing seems to happen when I hook it up. I've read posts that the Nexus 4 physically can't output power over it's USB, which is fine because the DAC has it's own battery source... but can it at least output the audio?
I started with the stock kernel, but also tried the latest Franco kernel (r214) with no luck. Also, I verified the DAC itself works by using it with my laptop. I'm hoping there's just some hidden setting or patch I need to apply to get it to work... Has anyone else tried this yet?

pls report your findings if you can make it happened!!
i can not help you with your problem but it is something that interest me too. i only can suggest to use a more feature enabled kernel like unleashed or hells core
pls report your findings if you make it work mate!
That's a good idea... unfortunately no dice with the latest unleashed kernel either (98u). It claims it supports USB OTG, so I was hoping that would be enough, but maybe there's more that needs to be done.

one thing that you might not know. nexus 4 does support usb otg BUT cannot provide electricity via usb. you must use a y cable and provide external power so you it might not be possible to use your DAC!
Thanks, I did know that, but I figured that since my DAC is self-powered (it has its own battery) that I wouldn't need to do the y-cable trick.
Worth a try though, I'm going to order one and see if I can at least get regular USB OTG to work. Maybe once that's working it'll be easier to troubleshoot the audio.
Just wanted to update, I got the Y OTG cable so I could have external power at the same time... but still doesn't work. This is with stock 5.0.1 and unleashed 98u kernel. I went into Synapse and enabled the OTG setting as well. DAC doesn't get recognized, and I tried a few free apps that are supposed to do OTG checks, but they all came back that nothing is attached.
Usb otg is one thing and uab audio out is another. USB otg means that you can connect an USB stick or external hdd to your phone ( with or without external power) USB AUDIO OUT need special circuits from your internal Dac to the USB. If those are not implemented you will never have USB audio out. This is something witch depends on the manufacturer ( S4 mini with snapdragon 400 don't work with USB otg or USB audio out, htc mini 2 M8 works perfectly with fiio E18 as a audio surce for external DAC). So if you really need USB audio out please next time do your homework and read before buying a phone. P.S. Htc mini 2 M8 has the best audio ever and really you don't need an external dac. If you need more power just use your fiio as an amplifier with your phone.
Maybe you could find for your phone a apecial kernel modified for better audio experience. Flash that and use your headphones.
Good luck!
Thanks, yeah I don't need usb audio out... I've had the phone for over 2 years and I still really like it, so no plans on getting a new one just for this.
I believe it's physically possible to do audio out on the N4... I've seen random posts about people getting it to work, but they've all been on custom ROM's based on 4.4.x stuff. I'd really rather not try to reproduce that since 5.0 is running so much better on my phone, and I was just hoping with the new native Android support it might work out of the box. But alas, it looks like google locked down 5.0 on the N4 - even USB OTG storage doesn't work unless you put a custom kernel like unleashed on.
In the meantime, I've just been using it as a headphone amp like you suggest and it's a big improvement.

Dragonfly Red DAC - Can I get it to work with Meizu Pro 5?

Hello guys!
I've recently bought an Audioquest Dragonfly Red USB DAC to use with my tablet and smartphone. If I connect the DAC to the Meizu Pro 5, I do get a notification "USB audio - Output audio form the usb sound card". However, there is no sound at all, in none of my music apps. Neither Tidal, nor the stock player not USB Player Pro. Is there any way to get it to work with Flyme OS? (unfortunately updating won't work, somehow the user before me is still logged in, updates don't work - so I'm currently stuck with Flyme OS 5.1.2.0 OG. Phone is rooted though).
Would it work if I rooted to a CM rom?
Any help is really appreciated - thanks!

in Fastboot mode, it says its locked.
However, I got the Dragonfly to work with UAPP now.
I used USB Host check and used the fix with root permission. After I rebooted, I can now use the DAC with USB Player Pro (UAPP). However, I still wonder if it would work natively in Tidal etc. if I used another ROM, as Flyme OS disables all volume control in the system as soon as its connected. UAPP works, because it can access the hardware volume of the Dragonfly..

thanks! I already looked up a tutorial on the dragonfly thread on head-fi, however, i didn't get alsamixer to work yet. but that's also due to me possessing no programming skills whatsoever

Does it improve the sound quality compare to pro5 standard headphone jack?

Does anyone know if this phone supports usb audio?

I'm planning to buy a HiFiMeDIY Sabre Android USB DAC and would like to know if it is compatible with our device
I'm currently on Resurrection Remix 5.8.2
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I would like to bump this thread. What I did found out, that for now, Redmi 2 can pass audio through usb only with usb audio player pro - without this app, with DAC connected to microUSB, sound still goes through speakers o minijack. In theory, in base on this document https://source.android.com/devices/audio/usb, most of audio_config files in recent Oreo roms, have this lines of code in kernel. But still, running for example LineageOS 15.1, this problem still appears. Can anyone answer, what could be a reason for that and/or have idea how to debug this problem?

USB-C audio in 9.0 update

Hello y'all,
I recently discovered by accident that when I tried plugging in my PS4 controller through the USB-C port the phone was showing headphones icon in the status bar. And sure enough, the audio wasn't coming from the phone. So can anyone test this out since I don't have any USB-C headphones, but I always wanted them.
Thanks to anyone participating in this test.
Write your results here.
Audio through USB-C works at least since Android 8.1. I've USB-C mini DAC (Hidizs Sonata HD) and works perfectly. Also I tested Nobsound NS-10g USB input via USB host adapter and also works. So, isn't a new feature of 9.0 update, if you are thinking so.
I've been using fulla schiit 2, usb audio works on 8.1

Actually yes, I was thinking it's new because when I tried my friends USB C headphones it didn't respond.
But thank you for clarifying me! Your response is appreciated.

Does your Hidizs Sonata work also with Android Pie? I've just got Sonata II and it works only if I connect it within one minute after reboot. After that the phone ignores it and acts like nothing has been connected (but the phone is powering the dongle as I see increased draw in logcat and hear a very faint click in the headphones). So if I want to listen via Sonata, I must connect it first and reboot the phone, then it works perfectly. I tried all the available firmwares for Sonata, it does the same with all of them. With the PC or Huawei phone it works whenever I connect the dongle, so it most probably isn't faulty USB DAC, but rather something in the phone. Also I'm missing the option "Audio source" in the USB options in the phone's settings completely, if it makes any difference/sense.

Yes, my unit works perfectly with Android Pie, stock and custom ROM. What build are you using? Maybe something is corrupt

I'm no stock Android Pie, tried the adapter with February patch. Unfortunately adapter just stopped working with all of my devices (got really hot and then died completely), so can't verify with March update.
I'm going to visit an Apple store and try their USB-C - 3.5mm adapter, it is being said to be of a very high quality and is just 10USD/EUR and available locally, so I don't have to wait more than a month for delivery of another Hidizs from China.
Apple dongle behaves the same. Working when connected within ~1 minute after reboot, won't work on later (re)connection. I tried a different kernel to no avail. Would love to know why is it happening.
Edit: it happens that I'm forgetful, see explanation below
Oh my.. I'm stupid guys, I totally forgot that I configured recommended workaround "disable USB host" for 70000.USB wakelock couple of months ago. It was running one minute after boot via Tasker, no wonders I was experiencing this. Dongle works completely fine now (except of volume buttons on the Apple DAC). Sorry for stupid confusion.

USB-C Audio (Tab A 10.1 SM-T510) Any ROM? Need Help.

Hello,
im posting here after several evenings when I read and tried basically everything on this topic.
I have "Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 SM-T510", rooted.
I tried several roms, without any problems to flash them via odin or twrp, updated twrp.
twrp-3.5.2_9-0-T510XXU5CUF4-20210725.img
AP_twrp_ResurrectionRemix_gta3xlwifi.tar
Nexus_Stock_CQ_T510XXU4BUA1-20210508.tar
lineage-17.1-20210526-UNOFFICIAL-T510XXU4BUA1.tar
All of them were working flawlesly, without any problems, improvement in overall workflow on this tablet is AMAZING.
My only problem is that on any of these ROMs, USB-C > 3.5 JACK dongle is not working at all, tried several options in developments settings, nothing.
Samsung bundled DAC dongle - not working, no sound
Ibasso DC 03 DAC- not working (led flashing as it is powered, no sound)
AudioQuest DragonFly DAC - not working (led flashing as it is powered, no sound)
My main usage for this tablet is music listening/controling via ROON/Tidal/Qobuz, so here we are.
Is there anything i can do? Cant find much on this topic in forums/google, which is weird.
Thanks for any advice guys. Have a nice day.
I almost forgot, that on STOCK ROM every dongle was working without any problems. So it has to be software issue..

I'm in the same boat. I enabled "alternate audio mode" in the phh options and unplugged and replugged the usb to audio dongle, and it started working
