Hi all,
is there a way to be able to switch the EQ on and off regardless of having headphones plugged in.
i can use my tvout to connect to my TV and also my surround sound player.
i would like to be able to switch the EQ on when i have my phone connected to the tv out.
( it says 'eq can only be used with headphones')
i am assuming that the EQ on could poss damage the speakers if not using headphones hence why it isnt allowed but i wouldnt be using it without going through something e.g car or tv. ( it works fine thru my car audio)
thanks all.

bump, cheers.
you can use a player like nitrogen which has a built in equilizer or you can play with basic equalizer settings in advance confg tools.
I have no clue if one can run it without the headphones though i really doubt if that can happen..
Is it possible to connect Android via MHL adapter to a PS3?
I know it sounds useless when we can just connect to our TVs.
My issue is this.
I have a sound bar because I like it loud.
Have my PS3 connected through HDMI to TV and composite audio out to sound bar.
I want to have my Android playing through sound bar.
The only way I see it possible is through the PS3.
Is it possible?
Found a work around unless I can figure this out.
Connected audio to sound bar via BT.

This is just mind-numbingly confusing. Doesn't the PS3 have a built in music player you could use (I can't remember, mine hasn't been on since i got my PS4)? If not then Bluetooth sounds like your only option. Are you trying to get game sound and music at the same time? If so this is not possible.
No. I am streaming video from my device through MHL and the volume through my TV wasn't loud enough for my liking.
The only way to do what I want was video through MHL and audio through BT.
Works pretty well honestly.
Still prefer going through PS3 but I don't know if it's possible.
Has anyone been able to get headphone control buttons to work?
I have a wired pair of earbuds with a single button and it wont pause music or answer calls. Tried with Spotify and Local music player.
I know the headphone button works as I used it with my previous phone just fine.
Any one else?

it works for me with the in-box provided earphone as well as with other one i have. try with a different earphone.
just try another earphone dude, the problem is not with the device.
Controls work fine on another pair of headphones. Seems the pair I had we're finicky.
Thanks guys.
I posted last month about this with no replies, so I figured I'd try again.
I have my usb settings at MTP, and when I connect my Fiio E7 I get music through it. Problem is, I can still control the volume from the phone. That tells me it is not bypassing the N8 DAC and amplifier. It should only be sending the digital signal to the external DAC which then goes to the E7's amp for volume control. Correct? That is how it works when connected to my laptop. And there is a clear difference between laptop with and without E7 and also a difference between laptop with E7 and N8 with E7. There is no difference when using E7 with N8 and just using the headphone jack.
Anyone figure a way to bypass internal DAC?

The phone can recognize that you have a DAC connected, but that doesn't mean the app volume or OS volume controls are eliminated. It's all independent as far ask I know. I have the Fiio Q1, and when I connect (via USB OTG) it recognizes it as an audio output device, but my volume rocker still affects the volume. Even so, the sound quality is leaps and bounds higher than it is just plugging headphones into the phone.
Make sure you're using an app that passes the correct info via usb to the DAC. Poweramp alpha, USB Audio Player, and HibyMusic all work (among a few others). Try one and see if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the reply, but I'm trying to use the Tidal app for streaming.

I verified with an electrical engineer/mechatronics professor I know and my thoughts were correct. It should only be passing the audio data, which will not have an effect on the volume. You can't change the volume on data. So it has to be going through the phone's DAC and amp for volume control to work.
Thanks for the reply though.
I'm not sure if it will help but have you tried to disable absolute volume control in the developer settings?
Coming from a Fiio E17K Alpen 2 I can tell you that they are a picky bunch and I was only able to get it work sometimes when using USB Audio Player Pro, which has Tidal integration btw. Have since upgraded to a Fiio Q1 MK2 and have no issues whatsoever. Keep in mind, the earlier Fiio USB AMP/DACs were never guaranteed to work on Android, hell not even the Q1 is but it works perfectly.
I'm not very knowledgeable about audio stuff but is there such thing as a DAC for BT headphones?

I finally got a chance to try USB Audio Player Pro. It works perfectly. Thanks for your help.

Thanks again for the help. I didn't try USB Audio Player until D_VIN_GADO pointed out that it has Tidal integrated.

Glad you got it worked out.
I listen to music using a set of wired headphones, connected thru a USB-C dongle.
- The headphones are Bose QC20.
- The USB-C dongle is iBasso DC02.
- My music app is Google Play Music.
I'm rooted, with the following Magisk modules installed;
- ViPER4Android FX v2.7.1.0
- Audio Modification Library v2.4
I used to be able to double click the single button built into the Bose QC20's inline mic, to get Google Play Music to skip to the next track. Or at least I thought I could. Hmmm, maybe I'm remembering my old Nexus 6.
Anyone else able to skip tracks with a double-click of the button on their wired headphones connected to a USB-C dongle?
How'd you do it?
EDIT: I also have EdXposed and Gravity Box installed
I think this may be related to the iBasso DC02 USB-C adapter.
My memory of being able to skip tracks is coming back to me now.... I was (and am) indeed able to do this when using an Apple USB-C adapter. I just pulled the Apple adapter out of the junk drawer, and plugged it in. Sure enough, skip track works.
So, this looks like an iBasso DC02 thing.
I'll have to see if I can get with them and figure out a solution.
