Like the title says, would there be any chance to get digital audio out of the phone, so that you could connect an external digital to analog audio converter to the usb?
I'm just curious...

It may be possible with blefish CM 10.1 since it will come with OTG functionality activated in his 3.4 kernel.

True. There already seems to be support added in the audio HAL for USB accessory aswell, but it's not tested.
Whoa! Nice...
Hopefully it will work, so that I could use the phone as a HQ audio source.

Would I need an otg cable (=pins4 and 5 shorted) to connect the USB audio device or would it work with a regular cable? I do need an otg cable for keyboard/mouse, right?

While I would like to add full OTG so it would detect whether it should act as host or peripheral automatically, there will still be manual toggle mode for it. You'd need a male->female switch though, as you can't connect it otherwise.
But does the male -> female adapter have to short circuit the 4th and 5th pin (Known as an otg cable) OR does a regular adapter work?
I'm about to purchase one, so I need to know it.
Besides that, thanks a lot for being (the only?) developer putting effort in this issue!:thumbup:

Edit. Oh, does the 4./5. Pin shorting only make the device detect the host/peripheral thing automatically? So it would work with a regular cable, if you'd turn it on manually?

Does anyone know if I can plug a cable into usb port on my phone that goes to hdmi on a tv and if it will work to play netflix with audio and video?

No. You can only dlna through wifi.
Dang, I had some high hopes. Thanx for the answer!

To use USB to HDMI, you have to have a special cable, and the phone has to be HW-compliant. The protocol standard is called MHL.
Not our case.
The other option is to have a converter with SW packing on the phone and HW unpacking on the adapter. None available for phones, AFAIK, and these packers consume quite some processing power.
There are apps to use phone as wireless keyboard if you plug pc to tv if that helps

Hi, I'm wondering if there is a video out option for PCs, Ive only been able to find mhl hdmi adapters for the nexus 7.. would it be possible to modify the hardware of an mhl adapter and/or develop an app that allows a PC video in connection via microUSB for use as a dual monitor?

I believe it works with some Android's this way BUT will not work with Nexus phones due to MTP.

Is there anyway to get mtp? Or get rid of it?

As far as I am aware, the N4 will NOT mount on any PC (or car stereo) in as a standard drive anymore.
So unless you have a car stereo that supports MTP, it won't work. You cannot resurrect normal file-system mounting. Well, you can by making you phone a SMB share, but I believe that only works over WiFi.
The auxiliary ports on all phones are crap, does the Nexus 4 support exerting music through USB? If not, is there a kernel that has the capability of enabled that function? Thanks.

Probably yes, but you would need a Y cable splitter for the USB power. In the end you'd get a really bulky setup. Not worth it IMHO.

I don't need the power I just want to send info to my car audio.

That is called USB audio out. The Nexus 7 supports OTG of of the box, but even then it cannot support USB audio out.

So the chances of it working on a Nexus 4 is slim.
Anyone found a working solution for audio out via USB on S5? Can't find dockmode support for audio!?!
OTG cable should do it

No go on USB cable that splits out Audio...

Bought it, got it, doesn't work on S5 per manufacturer.
