How to connect 3.5mm headphones

Does anyone know of a adapter or device that will adapt my headphones for use with the USB mini?
how 'bout this noob ^?
So I saw the adapter in the store banner right after posting this. Anyone use the Javo? How is the sound quality on a good pair of phones?

Any hope that this amp would work USB with windows mobile? Or am I stuck hooking it up with mini jacks.
Thank you for the above response.

If you're super cheap, use the adaptor that came with your Touch in conjunction with this 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor. Very cheap, free shipping, and great website!

Wired headsets not recognized by my Pixel 4

Hi everyone,
I discovered that my wired headphone is not recognized by the Pixel 4 (audio still comes out from the built-in speaker.
Then I tried the Pixel USB-C headset from my friend (he has a Pixel 3) and it worked.
I also made it work with some Bluetooth wireless earbuds (probably not relevant, sorry).
Anyone would have any idea how I can make generic standard headsets (with USB-C connector, no adaptor 3.5mm to USB-C) recognized by the Pixel 4?
Thanks a lot,

I would definitely start the troubleshooting with the your usb-c to 3.5mm dongle. Sounds for sure like you have a subpar adapter. You stated that you tried a pair of wired usb-c pixel buds and had no issues, this would rule out a faulty USB port on the phone. Get your hands on a new or different dongle and give that a try, you should be fine with a known working one.
I have 3 of them (Pixel OEM dongles) and all 3 work just fine with multiple pairs of headphones. Let me know how you make out dude.
Thanks 1dopewrx05,
Before my 1st post, I tried a standard headset USB-C (I wrote no adaptor)
By now, I have also tried another headset but with an adaptor.
I'll probably try another one later when I get one but I think it Is strange and I was wondering if there something special with the Google Pixel Bud USB-C.
Thanks,

The Google USB-C to 3.5mm is special because it has a built in AMP to power headphones connected to it. If an adapter doesn't have a built in AMP then any headphones you connect to the Pixel 4 won't work using that adapter.
This is the reason your USB-C headphones don't work, it's simply because the USB-C port on the pixel 4 doesn't provide enough power to drive your headphones.

You need an adapter (dongle) that is a digital to analog converter (DAC). Not all brands of dongle's are interchangeable with the Pixel. I purchased a dongle from Google for a Pixel 3, cost about $12.
Good luck
Hi GTOJim,
Thanks for your reply.
That must be it. My previous mobile was the HTC U12+ with USB C headsets and I also had a USB-C adaptor and I guess the HTC one was the wrong technology.
I'll check for another converter then.
Cheers,

If I remember correctly HTC's wiring in their USB-C port is a bit different for their earbuds. A year ago I had USB-C earbuds from HTC and they didn't work on 2 of my phones(Samsung and possibly Pixel?).
Thanks Charkatak!
The HTC USB-C is probably not to be re-used then.
However, my converter 3.5mm to USB-C should have worked but I guess the DAC requirement wasn't there.
I'll just get another one

c-port to usb to my headphones

playing hardwire headphones from tab s7 plus 5g.
usb-c to usb, usb to DAC, DAC to headphone amp, hp amp to vmodas. had to operate on the UAG case for the adapter to fit.

Is it possible to use a USB-C to 3.5mm audio adapter for s10 plus?

I know there are several types of cables USB-C To 3.5mm Audio jack. Is it needed an original Samsung cable for this purpose?
There are adapters USB-C To 3.5mm audio jack that are dual and permit charge at he same time. Are all of them compatible with S10 plus?
Does your S10+ not have the headphone jack like mine does??
