Has anyone of you tried USB DACs with custom roms which support USB-OTG? If so, post brand of USB DAC, user experience and issues you may had.
why would i if the samsung galaxy S is an excellent DAC in itself..just have flash the voodoo kernel ( or a kernel with voodoo sound)..or get the voodoo app
An external DAC/AMP would be still a great option as an upgrade. Still there are better players out there. I'm also using a Sony Z walkman as portable player and its on a league of its own.
Possible that no one has used an external dac from the Galaxy S. I was thinking that all those custom roms listing this feature would have caught some interest.
USB DAC support
So, we have Jelly Bean ported for our devices. Any news about USB DAC support?
In CM10 usb dac can be detected in USB Host Controller app, but sound still plays through the rear speaker of the phone. At first I thought to change /etc/asound.conf to make sound go to the external usb dac, but it seems that this file is not used by the system at all - it can be deleted and everything works fine.

Any developments on this? I'm wondering if I can hook my old i9000 to the phono input of my Hi-Fi and play music stream via DLNA. The built in DAC is very good apparently, but If i can attach an external one, even better.

Aim: I would love to get a digital audio signal from my Gnote to feed an external DAC (then onto a headphone amp). Some have tried a DAC directly attached to the micro USB port, but apparently it doesn't work.
Question: Using an MHL to HDMI cable, then a box such as this...

...would it provide a pure digital audio signal using (say) the stock music player?
Thanks in advance.
Hello
All we know that sound quality from lg is very low but there is another way to get audio signal - from usb to DAC.
Is some kernel supporting this feature?
Currently no Kernel is supporting USB audio.

What about USB OTG in new ICS?
Hello,
Has anyone been successful with USB audio with the Galaxy Note? I tried it using ParanoidAndroid rom and it seems support isnt there. Im actually surprised about this since USB Host mode is available. I tried it out using a Zoom H1 and USB Audio Tester Root app.
Not yet implement in CM10.1

Has anyone successfully paired a USB DAC to the Nexus 6? I know Android 5.0 is supposed to have USB audio support, but 4.4 was too and that didn't work natively on the Nexus 5.
I'm looking into getting the FiiO E18 but want to know if it will actually work without having to install Cyanogen.
I haven't tried my E17 with my phone before, but now you have me curious... I think I need a usb2go cable too, right?
Hi there
I bought the SGS1 as a nice DAP with Voodoo (SQ is awesome really) and Id like to know if it is possible to connect a USB external sound card via USB OTG to my phone. While it bypasses the internal sound card, I can still play all the music I have on the phone and its 32GB uSD via Line-out of the external sound card. Does Android 4.0> accept them via USB OTG?
Thanks
Doubt it. USB sound cards usually install driver's from the device. Doubt our phones have the relevant interface driver's. The S1 has a great built in sound card. Maybe have a look at sound mods bouncing around xda if your unhappy with the output. Im currently trying AC!D sound mod for the extra bass. But maybe Viper be a better for you. A high quality sound mod.

Hi ruben112,
I am also interested in this feature. This is my experience with it so far:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57320120&postcount=4089
Edit:
Just noted, that this is a GT-9000 and not GT-9001 (S plus) thread. But if OTG works in general for GT-9000 the drivers should not be a problem, as USB sound cards use a generic driver (must be enabled in the kernel). What might be missing is support in your Android implementation. Android 4 at least supports it but the sound card interface implemtation has to support it too. USB-Audio worked out of the box with my Galaxy S5 mini, but no support with my S plus.
Thanks for your response. I might buy an OTG cable and see how it works out/ how far I can go.
And I already have my i9000 voodoo-ed! It's great, but it would be even better to have a true line-out facility out of our great phone
