Mate 10 pro user here.
I mean, really, how hard is it, to put a 3.5mm jack in a 700€ phone?
Whatever, ontopic, since I already lost my original adapter, has anyone tried one of the cheap Chinese ones, something like THIS for example? Does it work alright? If yes, I'm going to buy 30, because I'm going to lose 28. Is there something I need to be careful about?
Once again, thumbs up for taking away features. :good::good::highfive:
I think it was a Huawei executive who explained that people say they would want a thicker phone if it meant it includes feature X, but when people go and actually purchase a phone, they buy via hand feel where thinness wins.
The issue with USB C adapters is that there isn't really a standard way of getting audio out of the port. Most implementations are proprietary. You really have to buy one to test out before you go and buy 30.
i have one of this from gearbest and is working fine with mate 10 pro
also i have one with charge and audio same time and working fine. i mean audio part, charging is only regular, not fast charge

Where did you get the charge and audio cable from? I'm going to need one for my P20 Pro but a lot I see for sale don't seem to charge and supply audio at the same time (according to the reviews on Amazon at least).
i tried the adapter that comes with the mate 10 pro on my mate 10 non-pro, and it doesn't work! LOL
i bought the razer brand adapter from amazon and it is the BOMB. highly recommend.
I ordered a cheap random one from Amazon which works fine with audio, but charges at maximum 300ma, which is fine if you are using it over night, but obviously not great otherwise
Can you link that?
Anyone has a link to one that has aux and charging at the same time?
The Mate 10 Pro requires an adapter with a DAC (digital to analogue converter) in it. Basically that means the adapter needs a small audio processor and amp to convert the digital stream in to something your headphones can use.
Some of the really cheap adapters don't contain a DAC due to some different implementations of audio via USB C.
The really cheap adapters with a DAC might sound bad if the amp and processor are nasty and weak.
I'm not sure what the right amount is to spend to get a good quality one. I got a fairly cheap adapter which charges at the same time to use in the car so I can charge for sat nav and have audio (car doesn't allow Bluetooth music). The sound quality of this seems to be comparable to the bundled adapter without a charge socket when comparing the two one after the other. It's certainly not noticeably worse.
The adapter I got is advertised as allowing charging of up to 1.5a but I haven't seen more than 900ma. Still just about enough to charge slowly when listening to music, and to stop any drain if using sat nav in the car.
This isn't the seller I used but is the same product so you can see what I've got working for audio and charging:

This is the one I bought
The audio worked surprisingly well, with no hissing (Very quiet with dirt cheap headphones, but quite acceptable with a £10 pair). Only downside was that the charge was 300mA max according to Ampere - but since I was charging it overnight it wasn't an issue.
I'm sure there are better ones out there, but for less than £3 I got more than I expected!
Hi, i bought a second original adaptor from Huawei, it costs 12euros (like 15 dollars), minimal and short with great audio quality. Don't save 10 bucks on this item if you like audio quality

Looks to be just what I'm looking for, Its not going to fit the Titan perfectly but it looks like it would work.
http://cgi.ebay.ca/FM-Transmitter-M...ryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
If anyone has one on a Titan please give us a review.
Chris
well i just bought one so i'll review it when i get it.
I'm curious... let me know how this works... Very curious to see if it works good with the Slingbox. If I could run the audio of the TV through my car speakers... I'm buying it soon after!
THANKS!
Well I got the transmitter yesterday and was initially pleased with the size and appearance. My first disappointment was that it will not charge the device while playing music. That was the point of my purchase. I have sent a question to the seller about this. I may have got a faulty transmitter.
Also the sound has static in the lower range. If you play anything with crunch like metallica, it just sounds like distortion... on top of distortion... This can be reduced by turning down the system vol on the titan and jacking up the radio but you have to remember to reduce the vol on the radio after you finish using the transmitter. The cig. adapter and charging cable is small and discreet and works very well to charge the device but when the charging cable is attached to power the transmitter the device receives no power. Also, the design of the transmitter will not allow you to jury rig power with the solid Y adapter. This would not bother me on short drives but my work makes me drive prolonged distances so the phone would be dead by the time I arrived. Also in situations where GPS is needed you would have to disconnect the transmitter and connect the power adapter to keep it functional.
The mic built into the transmitter works on about the same level as the speaker phone mic.
Tested on:
VW/ 8 speaker Monsoon Radio with aftermarket antenna pre-amp. (2x better than stock antenna pre-amp)
just to add to this...never tired to specific one being discussed but i thought i would share the one i am using found here
The Motorola T505 it works great connects to phone using bluetooth and broadcasts any audio from it to an fm frequency. it pairs with my touch every time and so far no disappointment's...it's a little more expensive but i think it's worth it. Come with a card charger 2 and the battery last pretty good.
"The Motorola T505"
Looks good! Do you mind me asking how much $$ it was?
i got it for 99$ on sale at Future Shop it's regular 129.99.

do somebody can work it??
Yes it works. I'm still using it but not being able to charge the phone while playing music is its down fall. I'm still looking for the ultimate solution.
Chris
Buy one of these socket splitters and use the dual adapter that you should have received with your phone. That should solve your problem. Note: buy extra fuses for the socket splitter. They tend to pop every now and then.

Motorola t505
Just wanted to pipe in that I'm using the T505 and love it. Have had it for almost 8-9 months (I believe I got it from Futureshop as well for about $89). I liked it so much that recommended it to my dad and he bought one. I think they're now much cheaper.
Hi Folks,
I got a headphone adapter for my phone because I wanted to use it as an MP3 player which works extremely well... until I receive a call. At which point the microphone inside the phone seems to be disabled so the person at the other side can't hear me. I assume this is because it thinks the headphones are a proper headset (inc mic) and that the sound should be coming from there!
I looked into writing an android app to fix this, but it seems the SDK doesn't let you mix and match microphone and sound sources (unless I missed something), so I am currently looking for a headset which:
1. Has in ear buds (my work colleagues don't care much for very loud Nevermore)
2. Has a microphone built in
I have been looking for hours now but pretty much every one I can find is identical to the one which came with the phone which has pretty crap sound for music, and doesn't stay in my ears! I would go for bluetooth but I hear the sound quality from music for those is terrible and they're very expensive. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Goggle or eBay "HTC HS U110". I got one from eBay for 9 bucks plus shipping and they work just fine. I'm using Shure SE210 with the cord that has the microphone so I can't comment on the stock earbud quality.
Are there any places that sell just a simple mini-usb adapter <-> 3.5mm with a built-in microphone for cheaper than the ~$13 for the full HTC HS U110 kit from ebay?
I know that you can find these adapters for the iphone for a couple of bucks apiece (for the defective headphone jack). I'd like to be able to buy a bunch for my MT3G and leave them lying around wherever I might need one.

Try browsing around amazon.com
I bought the oem htc 3-in-1 adapter for $3 from one of the retailers on amazon. I don't think that one has a mic built in, but has a 3.5mm and 2.5mm jacks that i believe support headphones/sets with built in mics. You might be able find the basic miniusb->3.5mm jack and mic hole (like the one that comes with the mt3g) as well..

The HTC 3-in-one adapter was halfway broken with cupcake, and almost completely useless with donut, unfortunately. There was the toggleheadset.apk utility as a workaround, but it no longer works. I'll probably just buy a bunch of the 3.5mm adapters with no microphone from ebay; they're available for <$2 each including shipping.
I can confirm that the 3.5mm jack on the 3in1 adapter will not work on the MT3G. Although the mini usb works if you use the HTC headphones. I also tried the HTC two way thing and it didn't work either. fyi the htc headphones that came with the Tmobile Dash have a high quality sound, better than the ones that came with the MT3G and my 09 shadow, those are just crap.
I use the 3in1 adapter in my car every day to charge and listen to music on my car stereo via the 3.5mm jack, and I have a MT3G. Maybe its something in cyanogen's rom.. I think I remember reading something about that somewhere?
It would be nice to find adapters with the mic built in, I have the one that came with the phone that I use with some sony in-ears I bought, but it would be nice to have extras.
anyon tried the Seido adapter?
Just to follow up on this thread, has anyone tried the Seido adapter that also has a microphone? See this link http://www.androidians.com/seidio-mini-usb-to-35mm-adapter/11A75A2812.htm
Thanks

Perhaps you could give this a try: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.29856
I've been dealing with the same problem and just ordered one of these too.
The only thing that I'm worried about is that the cord might be a bit long, but i can always shorten that if it's annoying.
headphone adaptor
How do you like the product? Am thinking about getting one.
Skip the adaptor stuff
and go Bluetooth. I bought this a couple of weeks back
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Bluetooth-S...3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1264584185&sr=8-3
pretty decent sound quality, controls for skip forward, back, vol +, vol- and play/pause. has a built in mic for calls (pauses music when your phone rings, answer and hang up with the play/pause button) and about 2 seconds to pair it up.
won't work with hero roms obviously, but cheap as chips and I'm sure they do it in the US too.
I'm just looking for a good pair of in-ear buds for the Magic that has controls for pause/play/skip like the stock headsets. Any suggestions?
I bought one off ebay from bestcellbuy: http://myworld.ebay.ca/bestcellbuy/
HTC Touch Pro Multifunction Adapter Audio Cable YC A300
Cost me $5 shipped
Now I don't have first hand experience with it. But my cousin is using it on a Sense UI 32A Magic and he says it works out of the box. Not sure if he is using the toggle app
Charges too.
I have also tried the DX one and the build quality of that was so bad that it never played music through both buds at the same time.
Not sure what you can get for skip and play functions unfortunately.
I got one of the 3 in 1 adapters from eBay for around $4-5 and the 3.5mm headphone jack works out of the box with my 32A (running CM atm)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330350652982&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
here ya go mate. this works like a charm. it has 2.5mm headset jack, 3.5mm, usb headset, and a secondary usb port for charging WHILE blasting music. plus its HTC branded and cheap as hell. took about 3 days to ship from Connecticut to Texas.
Anyone knows a 2n1 dongle that can hold a 2.5a charge? A plus if there's also data transmission.
Data Transmission is not possible because this pins used by headphones:/ if there any adaptor with good amount of power from the type c I want it, I have couple months now a adaptor but charging current is about 500mA:/

I bought a dongle which supposedly support fast charge upto 1.5a but turns out it can only charge upto 500mA. Finally, I found one which supports 18W charging — the BASEUS L57. It also has better sound quality than the original mi 8 dongle.

And expensive, too, apparently. However it looks so solid and pretty much it'll be able to handle the stress - if it doesn't load the force to USB port. It'll be problematic then.
BASEUS L41 looks great too, I guess it will be more efficient and strong.
And some people have suggested UGREEN's dongle, I might consider it for its relatively lower price.
Have anybody tested any else? I'd be glad to hear from you guys.
Does mic from headset works good? No noise in there? Test While charge and playing some game like pubgm, please test it . Cz i bought ugreen dongle and it works, but, when i charge and using my headset, mic not works properly, so much noise n annoying. Sorry if my english bad

Hi! Just needing to check: is anyone running LineageOS16 (Pie) or another custom ROM and succeeding partly/fully at audio while charging Mi 8?
Thanks for your help with this in advance
Has anyone used some type of USB-C->3.5mm adapter to route audio out with any luck? I'm looking to use my current my wired headphones and my car stereo aux port. I know old lol. My wireless BeatsX suck, they dont get loud at all. The wired Beats I got 6 years ago blows these POS of earbuds out of the water. Looking for any suggestions on an adapter and any special config required in android. Currently running rooted stock. Thanks.
UPDATE - I found a great adapter that works with my car aux port with no problems. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BTVQ8YC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Great quality, good price... $9.99
Currently I am using adapter from Xiaomi MiA2, works perfectly with aux in my car and wired JBL headphones. This adapter looks and feels cheap but works really well. I think every adapter should work, just buy generic one

Thanks everyone for the reply!!
Just so you know more: every adapter should work indeed.
But these adapters contain DAC (digital to analogic converter), in order to receive sound through USB and sending it through good old analogic 3.5mm. The quality of these DAC can really have a difference in sound quality. Not on standard car environment, sure, but for someone with good earphones it is worthwhile to search for a little quality for these adapters.

The OEM adapter does not have a DAC. It doesn't need one because it's correctly wired to work with the USB audio out on the OnePlus devices. So if you use this one, you're actually using the DAC in the phone itself.
I've got the Apple one (the only apple product own!)
According to head-fi (an audiphoile forum) it's one of the best that doesn;t cost a fortune.

Actually it sucks (at least for the OnePlus 7T), I got one too and I regret, the sound volume is really bad with the apple adapter because it wasn't made for Android phones at all of course.
I went to a miniso store and got one adapter there and is 5x times better than the Apple one, and cost 3x less. xd
Any splitter for simultaneous 3.5mm & charging which supports fast charging?
I've seen some videos on YouTube, but doesn't seem like supporting fast charging. We've real USB3.1, there should be something out there.

I tried one (from Ali Express). It is unusable while charging as I started hearing motor sound after one minute of usage. Unplug and plug that back in, again same issue in a minute. None of such adapters support fast charging as far as I know.

For those of you out there that bought this tablet that were a little disappointed like my self that it did not come with the headphone jack, i found a working solution. I went to my local best buy store here in the USA and bought a Belkin made adapter. The descritpion on the bottom of the front of the box is - 3.5MM audio+USB-C charge adapter. Model:F7U080BTBLK SKU:6370541. It is rated up to 36W. So it is perfect for the tablet since it only charges at 18W. I can confirm that it works as advertised. With taxes, in California, it came to $32.36USD. So not too expensive. Here is a pic of the box it came in https://i.imgur.com/M8Rxe2l.jpg
