I use the digital audio out from the mini usb to my Fiio Andes DAC. After taking OTA, Spotify freezes when adjusting volume and my handset become completely unresponsive, necessitating a hard reboot. Sadness ensues.
I didn't think it supported USB audio out to begin with. Wouldn't work on my stereo when I first bought the phone

tgearman, I didn't even know these devices worked with any USB audio out. This is pretty damn cool.
Have you played around in AOSP based ROMs? Does this capability work in any of those? What does your setup look like? You've got me super curious.
I've got the Sprint hTC One and picked up the OTG cable on Amazon for about $8 USD. The cable is usb mini (male) which connects to the handset. My phone recognized it immediately and routed the audio out. The other end of the OTG is usb standard (female) which connects to my Fiio cable. Shure se535's on the business end = Bam!

Gonna have to try that. Didn't know you needed USB otg. I tried with USB micro to regular USB - same as pc connect
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
I'm thinking they jump a couple of pins and that's how the handset recognizes the OTG and switches to audio-out on that port. It's pretty slick - give it a try. I put a review on the cable on Amazon. Reviewed under tgearman - search on that and you'll find the right one.

Hello good day to everybody
I'm using a MT3G with no audio Jack. Where I live HTC is a very rare brand. It's not likely to find accessories specific to the brand.
I just purchased a generic USB to minijack cable only to find that it doesn't work. The phone doesn't detect the headphones.
I downloaded somewhere an app called sound route or something like that. It didn't work but I think it's something there.
Do you know about a way to route the sound like, by force through the USB? Command line things or maybe even the manual. I don't know, something
My USB cable has 4 pins.
Thank you for your attention :-D

Hey guys, I found this cable on Buy and it looks interesting. I have not bought it yet but it does list the Bionic as compatible. Has anyone tried it? If so, please let us know how it is. If not, and you have a spare $10 go for it and bring back word. When mine comes I'll do the same.
Thanks!
So would be used for headsets with microphones, right? I see no reason for it unless that is the case.
It would be for 3.5mm audio out from the USB port w/o buying motos full car dock set.

Can you charge the phone while using this? It appears to only have a male USB plug, without any provision to plug a charger into a female jack.
i dont think this cable will work, and if it does id be a waste to not just spend another ten bucks and get the moto OEM cable +charging
heres why: the OEM cable not only charges and outputs audio but, more importantnly, *it bypasses the internal SW amp*. this means you are outputting as clean of an analog signal as you can from the phone to be amped directly by your car's components. you lose the ability to DSP/FX/Beats control, but if you use NeutronMP like you should be, it doesn't matter at all
Wouldn't trust the compatibility list, as Apple i-devices are listed as well. I used to be interested in a product like this, but seems redundant to me now... (why not use 1/8" Jack/aux cable?)

Who here has purchased a Vehicle or Desk (or any other dock you found for your Atrix HD), and what are your opinions about that docks?
I own both the Vehicle and Desk docks and i don't like how the audio cable isn't built into the vehicle dock like it is in the desk dock. otherwise i like both of the docks.
a note on the vehicle dock: you need to find the right sized case to fit properly in the dock without the inside part. I bought the Incipio Feather Case, and it was too small and the phone looked like it had no support inside the car dock so i had to add the inside piece back in and remove the case from the phone every time i use my car.
My phone will not fit the desk dock without removing the case. But the desk dock doesn't do anything I care about; it didn't even come with the HDMI cable. It's nothing more than an oversized kickstand....but it was free
The car dock was also free. I like that the vehicle dock works better with my case because the plug part slides independant of the frame. I don't like that there's no option to keep it from auto launching vehicle mode. The reason they do not have it automatically plugging into your audio jack is because if you have bluetooth on your radio (and I do) it would look cheap to have a cable hanging all the time.

Have you tried disabling car mode app? That should keep it from launching.
Go to settings> apps>all> find vehicle mode, select it, then disable.

I am it came with a 3.5mm cable, but it doesnt have a built in plug for it. The charger cable can also be disconnected, and they had fine in older car docks as well as the desk dock
The RAZR/RAZR MAXX docks work as well. One of the users over at AtrixForums,com has successfully used the RAZR Desk Dock (89527N) with the Atrix HD. It's essentially the same as the one they are selling for the AHD, but it can be found for cheaper (not sure if the insert might be different). I am using the RAZR Dock Station (89526N) with the AHD. in addition to the HDMI and audio ports, it also has 3 USB ports and includes the HDMI cable. The USB ports function perfectly with the AHD.

I have a question for anyone who has the car dock for the AHD (whether you got it free from AT&T or Costco, or purchased it retail). Did it come with a charging/audio cable? I got mine in the mail today from the Costco rebate thing (mailed the rebate form 2 weeks ago today before Thanksgiving) and it had the dock assembly and the mounting arm/suction cup... No cables. I tried the charging/audio cable from my Atrix 4G car dock and it works perfectly (including audio), but I'm wondering if the cable was supposed to be included or perhaps its only included if you buy retail.

Note that the USB cable is not the same as the one that comes with the Atrix 4G dock p/n SKN6394A, which also has an audio connector at the end

It is p/n SKN6428A, which is just a micro USB to USB cable.

So, you essentially got just a charging cable which plugs into the dock and also an auxiliary cable which you plug from the headphone jack to your car?
$20 for that cable? Ouch.

How about yours? Does the USB cable carry both power and audio like the 4G one did?
My 4G cable works fine with this dock, even though the Atrix HD is not listed as compatible on that other cable. If Motorola is just including plain cables, perhaps Costco is counting the bonus charger and cables they gave me as the cables I'm supposed to use with the dock. Costco didn't include an aux cable, though.

Well, I kept the 4G cable. Definitely don't wanna be plugging in an audio cable. Can also confirm the 4G cable works fine. It's actually funny, if I also plug the headphone the sound stops coming from the dock and comes from the headphone output.

i just bought mhl adapter for galaxy SIII and it's worked well with my note 2 although there is no sound
today i tried again with another TV and suddenly it wasn't work! it only charge my device and even the message "HDMI connected" didn't appear
what should i do? is there any certain setting?
1. Buy one made by Samsung.
2. Return the cheap Chinese one you have.

Are you sure its 11pin not 5pin?
When that happens with my Note 1, I power cycle it and its adapter starts working again.
How can you tell if is 11 pin?

Look at the MHL micro usb connector. You will see a 2 step connector. 6 pins on the lower step, 5 pins on the inside step. You can also look at the Note 2 micro usb plug and you can see the 2 step connector pins.

Is your Samsung MHL adapter like this...
Mine cuts in and out (both video and audio), and wiggling the entire set of attachments seems to bring it back. I've replaced the hdmi cable and power adapter / cable to no avail. Also, the power plug into on the MHL adapter seems very loose at the pin connection. But even with the charge indicator on, the video/audio signal cuts in and out randomly.
Hello all. Planning to get a MHL 2.0 cable for my note 3 but I also want to hook up a keyboard and mouse. I have a logitech k/b that uses wireless signal via a USB dongle. I figured the OTG cable would suffice but naturally once the MHL cable is in, there is no way to also use the OTG cable. Curious if there is some sort of hub that allows at least 1x micro usb and 1x full size usb, or some sort of splitter? I realize a bluetooth keyboard and mouse is probably another solution but would prefer to avoid if I could.
Thanks!
In other words, you want to make your phone a desktop computer?
yeh basically. Easier to work while on my lunch break. Thanks
Yes.
I made a pretty ghetto setup but it works.
What you will need is an OTG cable
A stand
And a powered USB hub
Mine is home made, but I believe they have this options made into a dock for this phone.

I was hoping to do the same thing. But through bluetooth. I have a bluetooth keyboard that connects but I just got a lenovo n700 bluetooth mouse but my phone wouldn't recognize it. :/
The mouse connected to my ipad though...

After my post I came across the Samsung Smart Dock, which looks to do what Im trying to accomplish. May invest in that, a little pricey though
As for the idea above, I still need to have a Micro USB for the MHL right? Or can I get an adapter to do USB to Micro USB to make it work?
You need an 11 pin adapter for MHL. Samsung and rocket fish sell the correct equipment.
