do i need an otg cable for a external dac? - LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers

hey,
normally you would need an otg cable to drive an external usb dac.
does it make a difference, that this phone has no headphone jack
and therefore has standard audio output over usb or do i still need
an otg cable?
best regards, willert.

if only using an USB-C to 3,5mm adapter you donĀ“t but for any DAC you need an OTG AdapterCable.
just for reference i use this one and it works perfectly:

thanks for your answer!
but are usb-c to 3.5 adapters basically dac's?
although they then probably also just use an otg cable
this is the one i am planning to use with me pro 3 when it arrives: http://www.head-fi.org/products/cozoy-aegis-portable-24-192-dac-amp

New MHL cable supports USB on Go

It seams that the change to the MHL cable is to allow USB on Go with the same cable

there is a MHL adapter that gives you a male 11 pin micro USB to female HDMI so you can just plug a standard male to male HDMI cable from adapter to TV.
see:
Samsung Galaxy S III MHL to HDMI adapter
Does anyone know if this new adapter will work with the Galaxy Nexus, as well? Also, does it charge the phone--or at least keep it from being drained--when USB OTG is being used? I've been looking for a way to use USB OTG with a flash drive on my GN while also charging/powering the phone. USB OTG is a real power hog.
It should, but on mine it doesn't.
I've got a new MHL cable and a USB OTG cable in the hope I could plug my MHL into the SGS3, use a powered USB hub connected to the Micro USB on the MHL and then connect a keyboard and mouse into the USB hub, then connect the HDMI to the TV.
For me it doesn't work. I thought this was the whole reason they changed the MHL cable to the new type. Can anyone else confirm?
Logicalstep
can we get an update on this situation here? How
can we get MHL AND USB OTG?
My reading of the link is that the micro USB port has been repinned to provide USB on the go and not that the cable allows for this.On the mhl cable there is a female HDMI port and a micro USB ( both female) which must be used by the charger.
If the usb connection is also female type, we have to use a usb otg cable to get it work. But at the moment my phone also wont recognize any devices -.-' only mhl and nothing else.
I bought this adapter for 25 euros and want to have it working.
I also asked samsung on facebook 'bout this problem, and everything the told me:
Go support site...
very helpful.
I hope the will enable this feature in a future update.

[Q] Driving an external DAC with USB output

I've read that 4.1 allows USB audio output, for example at http://www.head-fi.org/t/616118/android-4-1-finally-usb-audio .
Can anyone tell me exactly what I need to do to get my lovely DAC / headphone amp taking a USB feed from the I337? For one thing, can the I337 be the USB host, or do I need some sort of OTG cable?
The DAC has a mini-B plug.

You need USB OTG cable.
Check on Ebay or you can make one yourself. just google - how to make your own USB OTG cable

OTG support

I bought a type-c adapter for my Z1 to use OTG cable and Usb key. The key does not power on. I tried the adapter to charge the phone with a regular usb cable and it works.
Is this problem related to COS or is OTG function not supported on the Z1? Or is there a way to enable it?

I don't know if that has changed but for cm you have to use an app like StickMount to be able to mout the USB stick.
Ok thanks, I guess I have to root then.
I used only es file Explorer and it worked for me. I testet Ext hdd, mous, keyboard and controller
Same, no root required, just an usb C OTG and a file explorer. Be aware that the OTG or the device could be uncompatible...

I bought a USB-C to USB-A Converter and it works for me. Official USB type-c adapter has no support for OTG.

This might be the proper solution, it seems.
" type-c adapter for my Z1 to use OTG cable and Usb key"
What speed did you get to ?
Lenovo Zuk Z1
I tried Xiaomi USB typeC adapter with a SanDisk micro USB memory and it doesn't work
I have the same problem.At my oneplus 2 with adapter working normal but at Z1 not working.
No solution about that ? I got 2 adapters now (noname and Victsing) but still no otg, and usb storage options are unavailable !
Does it support in twrp recovery.. i mean does otg recognising in twrp...???
Strange, it should work out of the box on COS 12.1...just received my second Zuk1 and hooked up the Z1 to my car to read out the ECU, it worked without an hitch! Did not try a USB stick though...
I have 2 cables, one is with the micro USB for which I use a micro USB to type C USB adapter, the second USB OTG cable already has already the Type C connector and connects straight up.
I never used my "charging cable" as the idea is to plug your USB stick straight onto the OTG interface cable.
i have rooted/unlocked zuk z1.
tried every possible stuff (es file explorer,stick mount, usb troubleshooting etc), tried changing the otg cable, tried changing pendrives, nothing helps.
can anyone please help me?
xda is my only hope

USB-C OTG ?

I found some microUSB to USB-C adapters and I still plan on using an OTG thumbdrive. I was wondering if anyone has any experience using this and if the OTG will work through a micro to USB-C adapter, or if you need a direct USB-C OTG ? Any suggestions ?
I have all of them, a Type-C thumb drive, Type-C OTG and microUSB OTG, all work well, good luck with it.
