From what I have been reading the upcoming Samsung Galaxy note will have the same Yamaha Audio chip as Galaxy SII. http://www.anandtech.com/show/4686/samsung-galaxy-s-2-international-review-the-best-redefined/13
Howeer I wonder, some say the solution is to buy an external headphone amp and it will solve all "Problems". I wonder if I connect an USB amp like headstage Arrow 12He 4G, will the sound be processed through the yamaha chip or will it be a direct digital stream to the USB port processed by the CPU and the directlyto the headphone amp (where the magic happens).
If the sound is processed through the yamaha chip I am not sure an external headphone can save this, I really want the Galaxy Note as my music player, I have no problem to carry around a headphone amp in my back pocket.. Is there anyway to to let the CPU process the singnal ? I know that for normal PC soundcards that only thing that matters is the A/D converter, but the this Yamaha codec seem very bad..so the question if I can get a good sound with the Headstage Arrow Amp and Beyerdynamics DT1350 headphones, or will it like to polish a turd ?? Let me know of any solutions and what you think...
Doesn't work as far as I'm aware, tried a USB DAC with my USB OTG cable to no avail.
what version of android ?
I think you must have 2.3.5 and maybe some special driver installed...have you done your research ? do not expect it to work just plug and play.

something like that would probably work

I was wondering if anyone knows if it would be possible to use the usb port on the hermes and turn it into a line-in jack using the 8th inch adapter that is meant for audio out via software. Reason being is that with a 400mhz processor and 2-4-6gb sd cards it would be nice if I could turn my device into a portable harddrive recording unit for my mixes. Only problem to that is a line-in. Any intelligent responses are appreciated.
totally possible, and i believe a hardware dongle exists already for that very purpose
but there is no reason why you couldn't modify your original headset (other than the fact it uses tiny wires, as a audiophile i like 4gauge, on everything. haha) to assist you.
easiest thing to do would be lop off the mic and wire a jack onto its pads, BUT you will need to watch your levels in ANY case to make sure you are not giving your device wayyy to much power.
Yeah I definately thought levels would be an issue if i decided to just solder somethin up. Other thing is it's mono. Would be nice to have stereo since Im pretty sure it can handle it. If you could post a link to that hardware dongle you were mentioning i'd appreciate it. If its less than a hundred bucks I just assume get that for the purpose of stereo and not to mention not having to bother with soldering crappy little wires.
Hi Everyone,
I plugged my A7 through the HDMI port to my projector, it works with no issues whatsoever! But the sound jack doesn't work once the HDMI is plugged. Is there a way to force the sound to work even if HDMI is plugged in? Or even the speakers?
Thank you,
Marc
I have run into this issue with other devices, not the A7 yet though.
Once HDMI was connected the device only wanted to send audio over it and disabled all others.
My projector had RCA L/R out, but no internal speakers.
What I ended up having to do was get a RCA -> headphone jack adapter from Radio Shack and use regular PC speakers from that.
Probably not the solution you were looking for, but I hope it helps.
Possible solution
The option I'm looking at right now is an HDMI switch. It has 2 inputs for HDMI and outputs 4 HDMI and an RCA. I'm not really insterested in dishing out the 70$ for it though.
Hi all,
I'm looking for a way to use my earphones with 3.5mm audio jack via the micro USB port. Ideally, without carrying around a bulky separate amp. I bought a small micro USB to 3.5mm jack cable but it doesn't do anything straight out the box.
I don't know if i just need some sort of software to get the cable I've already bought working, or if I need some other sort of hardware.
Reason for all of this - I managed to break my 3.5mm audio output (plugged it in to a cheap ebay car audio unit and have blown something). I have wireless earphones....but just don't like them as much as my original wired ones!!!!
Hopefully someone can help me out!!
Cheers
You will NEED external DAC and AMP.
Micro usb can only output digital signal.

You need a USB DAC. There a quite a few like FiiO Q1, AudioQuest Drangonfly, Oppo HA2-SE, Chord Mojo etc. Money is the limit
By itself micro USB does not transmit sound, it transmits a digital signal, you will need an additional USB DAC
Get a quality Bluetooth receiver. Here's a great one with apt-x low latency which is crucial for video.

Hey just acquired an essential phone but it didn't come with the audio jack anyone know an alert antivenin that works I tried two active adapters from eBay but they both don't work.. Any suggestions TIA
Check this thread:

There are quite a few suggestions there for adapters that are confirmed working with PH-1.
It has to be an adapter with a built in DAC. (the more expensive kind)
there are other phones that basically use just a converter cable and output analog audio through the USB C port, since those are just changing USB C to a headphone jack they are pretty common and cheap.
The essential phone outputs digitally to a USB digital audio converter chipset built into the converter rather than just straight analog audio.
So just make sure the adaptor you are looking at says it has a built in DAC and it should work.
sometimes they dont list it though so if you are going for a cheap one then you may have to rely on someone in the reviews having an essential phone.
most razer phone and google pixel adaptors work but I'd still verify they have a DAC, sometimes amazon listings will just list a whole slew of compatible phones.
Hello i want to listen to my phone audio on my headphones that is connected to the PC. i used to do this with a 3.5 mm jack from the phone to the PC's line-In socket and then in sounds setting on the PC set the line in to listen to this device. is there anyway to do this with the USBC since i have a note 20 ultra now. i have used the app sound wire it has too much latency. u can also transmit the phone audio to the pc when dex is active but even that has too much latency.
maybe i need to buy a converter or something but even that has its down side that u cant charge and listen to the phone as the same time.
idk what to do.
OMG TY this is great. just tried it and i cant see any delay. i had a Bluetooth USB adapter lying around too.
btw i have also bought the 2 in 1 wire to charge and listen but its not working at all. i had bought a simple one for 6 Euros but i think you need one that comes with a DAC or something and it cost around 25 euros.
anyway TY again.
I use the Moshi usb dac. It'll charge the phone and output audio via 3.5mm port. https://www.moshi.com/en/product/usb-c-to-digital-audio-adapter-with-charging-adapter-ipad-pro/silver
nvm found 2in1 converter i wonder will it really charge at the same time.
If you're on Windows 10 version 2004 and have Bluetooth you can use the Bluetooth Audio Receiver app to play audio to Windows over Bluetooth https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/bluetooth-audio-receiver/9n9wclwdqs5j?activetab=pivot:overviewtab
I use this often and it works great, no noticeable latency during my use
