I don't think USB-Audio Adapter will work since this device doesn't have capability to read USB/USB-OTG (at least for my variant and what I've read from other forums).
A stereo Bluetooth earphones/headset/dongle is a viable option if that will happen (as it happen on my SM-J500H phone too; headphone jack repair is expensive (while the repair job is janky) in my place).
Usually, I'll modify the Bluetooth audio device to make it powered by 3xAA (1.5V) batteries that will last longer.

Definitely nope. As I said earlier, this device doesn't have the USB-OTG feature.
BTW, We do have the same variant.

I have a hifime Sabre-9018-DAC and even use it with an usb-c OTG adapter and it's working great with the stock ROM and even cm 13
Maybe you need an OTG adapter?

ZTE Z982 blade z max OTG VR HELP

Hi I recently got a VR headset DLODLO H1 Glass it requires OTG To use the 9 axis head tracking and touchpad and volume buttons. My blade z obviously doesn't have OTG or root which all make this phone really suck. I noticed there is a system app that says input devices.
Is there anyway whatsoever to make this phone OTG or make it work with my $70 VR headset????
Thanks
All you need to do is go get an otg cable, I'm saying this Outta experience cuz I have this phone

I have an OTG CABLE and it does not seem to recognize it. I just want to transfer files to use them on my PC running windows xp , as well as transfer photos back and forth between my z982 and PC. Any help is much appreciated, thank you in advance.
weird because the cable that comes with the cell phone when plugged into my windows 10 desktop works fine. I am able to transfer my files to and from each other all day.
you dont need "on the go" to transfer data between pc and phone

[Q] Charging in USB-C OTG-host mode

Hi guys,
I am using a pass through-powered USB-C hub through which I am using external USB devices (keyboard and mouse), as well as a larger monitor for screen mirroring. This works reasonably well. However, the USB-C hub, while powering the external devices, does not charge the phone while it is in OTG host mode (which is needs to be in order for the external devices to work). This leads to the problem that the phone is slowly draining when external devices are used to play games, work on spreadsheets, or whatever. So, I was wondering why this is and found that OTG host mode charging seems to be restricted by the kernel. Very annoying!
Looking around I found that there are custom kernels for other phones that tackle this problem (examples here (OnePlus One) or here (for Xperia Z5 compact)). Which leads me tot he question: is there any known solution for this problem for the OnePlus5? Is there a custom kernel supporting charging in OTG host mode? Is there any other work-around that would allow me to power my device while using OTG?
Thanks!
PS: My device is rooted but is otherwise running on stock kernel and ROM.

Nope and it won't, I have a thread in the themes and apps section about targus display docks as after much research I found that it is the only way to reliably mirror your screen in real time with no latency issues, with that being said there is no charging whilst this is in use, I wish there was but there isn't.
It's possible I suppose that power could flow both ways but after all the time that I've spent looking, I'm yet to find it.
I've tried over 10 docks, splitters, dual output cables. Devices with power input, none have charged the device.
I think the nature of the way display link works it just doesn't allow it.

Yeah, I saw your thread. In fact, I was just about to post in there another - much cheaper - device I'm using for reliable mirroring.
Edit: actually I posted it in the 'usb-c to HDMI adapter'-thread, in which you were also quite active.

Yeah, it is definitely possible (see the threads I've linked). But it depends the kernel allowing it, from what I understand. Anyways, if nobody has come up with a kernel allowing for it, then it won't happen I guess.

With displaylink technology it's not possible.. with previous hardware ie the HTC 10 it was but only with standard usb to hdmi converters, displaylink doesn't allow it.
In regards to usb OTG cables, I've never tried.

Oh.. so then there is a second limitation based on DisplayLink. Aside of the kernel.
Well. Luckily the OP5 has great battery life. A few hours of activity is no problem. Especially since I run everything through a USB-hub with its own power source anyway.

From my tests I've found the hub being powered makes no difference to the drain of the battery on the phone..
The OnePlus has got amazing battery life, definitely something I need in my life for my next device..
In regards to charging whilst using a displaylink honestly my comment is based on the testing of around 20 different devices and none of them allow charging, if it exists I personally haven't come across it.
A shame but not the end of the world..
Lava - Simulcharge
For what it's worth, I had a difficult time finding a device which supports simultaneous host charging as well. As it turns out, there is a device called the Simulcharge from Lava Computer that works quite well on Samsung tablets. I'm not sure if it will work with other Android devices: (unable to post link - search amazon).
It's a bit expensive but it works great!
Is there a cheap displaylink that works with the OP5 that also has a USB port for peripherals?
Sorry to revive this thread from the dead, but I'm also looking for a way to connect both charger + USB-OTG at the same time. I have a USB C hub that's capable of that, it works perfectly fine on my Oneplus 7. However on the OP5 it's either OTG or charging.
Did you ever found a way?

Hi ! I have a custom app specifically developped for OP6 and have the issue you have on OP5 : otg OR charching. I have seen Krieg Kernel enables it on OP5. Have you tried it ?
I'm looking for some Kernel for OP6 but nothing seems to answer my need....

Does OTG webcam work on the Oneplus 8 pro?

Hi guys, long time Android enthusiast.
I would like to enquire if anyone knows if the Oneplus 8 pro has the required v4l2 drivers to support OTG webcams. Software support is finicky between manufacturers (some just didn't implement it)
Could someone help me test? You can try out with a otg type c and this app:

Only thing that I know is that otg usb memory stick works just fine.
Edit. Ask some of the kernel devs via priv message. They know more

Thanks for the tip, however, I think its abit overkill. haha. Just need someone with and OTG hub to test with a webcam.
Tried my USB-borescope (camera with a flexible tube and led lights) with OTG cable and it works just fine
Edit.. no idea about the sound tho, since that camera doesn't have any mic.
Aarrgghh. I need an adapter to make my old device connect to the new phone...

Oneplus 5 OTG + Charging at the same time possible?

Hi,
I would want to turn my old OnePlus 5 phone into an octoprint/home assistant server. I only have one issue with it. It doesn't seem to support OTG and charging at the same time. I think is a stock kernel-related limitation. Is there anyone who knows how to overcome this issue?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Well I've tried this USB dongle from Macally: https://macally-europe.com/uc3hub3gbc
No luck so far. So if I plug the charger into a dongle it charges but as soon as I plugin for example my 3D printer Oneplus 5 cuts the charging off. I read from Oneplus forums that kernel might not support it but there's might be some custom kernels out there to support this way of use.
I have the same challenge - however I have tried this OTG - https://smile.amazon.com/MOSWAG-Adapter-Splitter-Compatible-Chromecast/dp/B08Y6VQN99 and if power is connected, it will never find whatever is attached to the USB A connector. I have been able to load Octaprint, but it will chew threw the battery in about 2 hours if it is not charging.

I had the same question around 4 years ago. See this thread here.
Unfortunately, it does not seem to be possible. There are two limitations:
Kernel limitations
DisplayLink - which only works 'one way' (it won't permit charging while sending video data over the cable)
