Questions about volume of a USB-C to minijack dongle - Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi,
Huawei P30 Pro is my first phone without a headphone jack. I bought 2 Ugreen USB-C to jack dongles on aliexpress some time ago. They were pretty cheap but had very good reviews. I tried both of them and apparently the volume output on both of these Ugreen dongles is very low - I need to set max volume on the audio output device to hear the music with decent volume. So, because this is my first experience with such dongles, I'd like to ask:
1) is this issue (low volume output when using a dongle) normal for every device without a jack?
2) is this issue specific to P30 Pro?
3) is this issue not normal and there's something wrong with both of my dongles?
4) would it have helped if I had used much more expensive, original Huawei dongle?
Thanks in advance

What are your thoughts. Seems like a good product. Be able to use some decent headphones for listening to those mp3z . . .
Anybody used one of these?
is the answer/mute button only for those 2 functions or is that module also acting as a microphone (don't think so)? looks good to me but i use the headset adaptor i bought from this internet site based in hong kong. check out:
http://pc-mobile.net/pxdaa.jpg (the website is http://pc-mobile.net)
it comes with a standard 2.5 mm jack for the xda. the wire is on a retractable mechanism to avoid tangling. at the other end is the stereo phone jack which serves as an answer/end button and as a microphone as well. there's a single headphone jack connected which uses a 3.5mm plug. when you want to listen to the toons using your 2-headphone set; you simply unplug the jack and insert any 3.5mm plug-based headset. in effect you can use any 3.5 headset as handsfree.
costs 26usd but services are 5-stars for me.
cheers
Anyone tried this adaptor from pc-moblie.net? The sound quality is good or bad?
i doubt that it could damage the quality so you can hear it unless you connect it to a stereo's lineIn and play it out using real speakers
those headsets are too limited imho to take much damage from a few connectors
However, all these things are not suitable for xdaII.
I bought one from pc-mobile and the quality is good. However, since the new xdaII got 2 buttons in its handsfree design, this product from pc-mobile is not fully compatible. You can hear from it but you can't pick up or end call from it as compared to xda1 you can.
I hope they can produce another product which is fully compatible with xda2. Otherwise, I may have to go for bluetooth but really worry about the battery.
Also, can I or is there anyone using the bluetooth handsfree for mp3 playing????? I doubt that very much.
I do really like the pc-mobile handsfree which is retractable and handy.
Any alternative in the market?? You got the adaptor but I think its only good for audio MP3 listening. If you attach another headsfree to the adaptor for business use (don't know whether we can...), you will have 2 buttons (one for the adaptor and one for the handsfree) which is quite funny !
Does somebody else have this problem and find a solution?
Do most people use bluetooth?
*Damn* !
Been creating a cable myself, tried it yesterdaynight late....
The damn thing didn't answer the phone when i pressed te button.
I cut the audio-out cord and trew the cable away, because i tought the mic didn't work....
Now i read this.... Guess the mic did work, but the answerbutton didn't.
Now i hope i can rewire the audio-out cabels again, so i haven't been soldering for nothing last night
Headphone adapter for HTC magic
Hello.
On the HTC magic, there isnt a 2.5 or a 3.5 headphone jack! there is only a mini USB jack. Does anyone know where i could get a mini USB jack adapter to turn it into a regular headphone jack?
Even if anybody knows what kind of mini USB jack comes on the HTC then that would be lots of help! because ive already purchased one that fit, but didnt work so it must have been a different type.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Bose on-ear headphones + cable mic

Hello everybody,
I own the bose on-ear, and I love them.
http://www.bose.co.uk/GB/en/home-an...bose-audio-headphones/bose-on-ear-headphones/
I would like to use them with my htc hd2 while calling.
Since the audio cable from the device to the headphones is removable, is it possible to have a 3.5mm female/male cable with a mic and audio controls in it?
I mean something like this:

I've done a slightly different take on this, I snipped the lead between the control module and the headphones and soldered a inline 3.5mm jack socket. This enables me to plug my Sennheiser HD-25 headphones in without having to damage the lead and in fact plug any standard set of headphones in whilst keeping the full functionality of the remote module...

Is there anyone else here who uses a BOSE in-ear headphones?
I've got one and I read a few reviews AFTER I bought it that it's not loud enough. I'm not sure if this is something to do with the phone or the product is just like this.
I've had Klipsch Speakers for my PC before but unsure if their earphones are also very good compared to BOSE.

Problem with dongle AUX output

My USB-c to audio dongle does not work with AUX in my car on my Mi8
I used the same AUX with my old phone - Mi 5s on the regular headphone jack and it worked fine. I tried it yesterday with the dongle adapter that came with the mi8 but it does not work. I just hear some weird noise and the phone recognizes that there is something connected to it because the song stops if you pull the dongle or the aux cable out.
The dongle works with my headphones so it is not a faulty dongle. It just does not work with the aux in my car, can anyone explain or anyone had similar issues?
I suspect it has something to do with the amplifier or digital to audio converter....
Is there a solution for this? Is anyone familiar with this because there are mixed reviews and opinions on usb-c to audio.
Same problem. Any solution?

Problems with the Headphones

When I connect the connector type c - jack to use headphones with jack appear in the setting that no headset is detected and I can't listen any music thought the headphones. I buy the global version Mi 9 + Headphones via AliExpress from the Miui store and received the phone less 3 days so i think is an issue of the phone or connector and no from misuse the connector.
Anyone can help me? I try to do a feedback in the Xiaomi forum app but the global version can't post anything LOL
Did you try other headphones, another phone and another connector to pinpoint the faulty component (perhaps some of your friends have similar devices/setups you can use for your tests)? And did you try rebooting your device ?
Personally I'm really missing the regular headphones jack, but the USB-C connector-convertor works just fine for me with all the 3rd party sets I've tried so far ...

Question Xiaomi Mi 11 audio DAC

Hi,
What is the audio DAC (digital to analogue converter) used in the Mi 11? Is it the CS43131 that was recently used by Xiaomi in their Mi dac hi-fi? Or is it the Snapdragon 888 audio dac, if yes what is it? Thanks!
I found the info myself, here it is in case someone is interested in the audio details.
The Mi 11 is not using a dedicated dac. It uses the Qualcomm Aqstic audio. The amp is WSA883X and the DAC is WCD938X. The DAC and the Aqstic Audio Codec is capable of delivering 384 kHz / 32 bit Hi-Fi audio with extremely low distortion to a jack output. The sound is going to be great even for the ones looking for the highest standards.
Explain-me if I am wrong, if you use cord headphones connected with the type-C adapter, the used DAC and amplifier will be the one from the external adapter. I not sure about it, but it, but USB type-C will not pass the analog signal for the speakers.
I believe that what would be important is the DSP (Digital Signal Processor)

Unlike the lightning port on iPhones the usb-c port can use both passive and active adapters. In the case of a passive adapter the phone's dac and amplifier are used. What you described is the case when using an active adapter. The Xiaomi mi dac hifi is a great option in terms of sound quality if you use an active adapter.
Hi guys, I have a Mi 11 Ultra, and I plan to buy DAC models like iBasso DC04 and TempoTec Sonata HD Pro, or TempoTec Sonata E35.

What do you think, guys?
I have a MI-11 and car audio without Bluetooth but with an AUX -cable with 3,5 male jack. Can I use USB-C splitter to USB-c 3.5 female so I can charge and have audio on my car radio via the AUX cable?

I do that, works fine
Hello! I got a mi11 a few days ago and I get some noise when reproducing music on my headphones or whatever I connect it to. Have tried several good quality headphones (AKG, Sennheiser and some wireless huawei) and I get the same effect everywhere. Even with my external dac there is no difference.
Could it be a software issue or it has to do with the built in dac??
