Moto-Z Play Type-C Headphones - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

hello.does moto z play supporting usb c headphones?anyone tried that ?

Yes it does support USB-C headphones. The only ones I have gotten to work are USB headphones without a microphone which seems to be harder to find online now.

3,5mm TV-out cable

Does it work???

Sadly it does not. I just tried it ( I have two cables ) none worked. Wait for the more expensive microusb/hdmi cables that will be out soon.
Nope, doesn't work. For the future search is your friend.

Compatible USB DAC/Amp?

Hi, I've found that the headphone output of this phone, while good for some headphones, has too much noise for sensitive IEMs and not enough power for some less efficient headphones, so I'm looking into a portable DAC/Amp. I tried this one with a USB-C adapter:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FJSEAZ4
But it didn't work. I know the USB-C adapter works, as I've used it with a thumb drive, and I know the DAC works on other Android devices, but apparently compatibility isn't universal. So has anyone successfully tried a portable DAC with this phone?

Thanks, that's good to hear. I was considering one of Fiio's products
I tried this one: http://hifimediy.com/android-dac
Works very well together with an USB B to C converter that supports USB OTG and drove even my good old 600 Ohm AKG K 141 loud enough!
It has a Sabre DAC. Bought it out of concern that the sound of the phone might not be good enough. But it is - at least with low impedance headphones like my Ultimate Ears UE 10 TF I don't find a difference to the 180 $ sony walkman of my GF.
(Small remark: Used a Samsung USB B to C converter first. This one, while doing very well on the PC and with ADB and also with the charger did not work as OTG adaptor.)

Weird, that's the exact one I tried that didn't work. Maybe I needed a different USB-C OTG adapter

For sure. It works for me without problems - plug and play.
I use this adaptor: http://www.delock.com/produkte/G_65678/merkmale.html
Side note: While I could use the Samsung adaptor for charging (but not for OTG devices) this one works well for OTG - but not for charging.
Edit: The price for te DAC on the amazon side is way higher than if you buy directly from the Hifimediy website.
And you should also note, that this DAC while it's pretty good for higher impedance phones did not work well with my low (32 ohm) impedance IEM's. But for those I found no need to use the DAC.
I ended up with a Fiio E18, I like the fact that it has playback control, plus B&H has it on sale right now. It doesn't seem to work with Poweramp, but it works perfectly with USB Audio Player PRO.

Will USB Audio Player read OTG storage?
Most file explorers do not see mnt/media_rw/0EB0-0FF. Do any players?
Quick, and hopefully not too stupid, question, do I need to root the phone to get the DAC working with Google Play Music?

I tried some type c headphones and they dont work. Find some that has dac
Hi there. Can anyone in this thread tell me what kind of DAC is in the original USB-C to 3.5mm adapter included with the pixel 2xl? I mean what is the the resolution it outputs? Is it 24 bit/192 khz.or what? I have looked for this info everywhere and I am having trouble finding out. Thanks in advance if anyone can help me.

Pie and USB Audio

It's likely a setting that I just can't find, but is anyone successfully using the usb-c audio adapter for headphones with Pie? This wasn't an issue in the DP versions, but when I plug in the adapter, it defaults to "charging the connected device via USB" and doesn't allow me to change it.
I'd really hate for my brand new pair of Audio-Technica headphones to be rendered useless...
Is it the Google provided adapter? I read somewhere that third-party accessories were not compatible...

No worries. It's good to know that third-party adapters are not supported, though.
Update: Interesting thing to note is that it works fine with Flash Kernel v3.0, but not stock kernel.
@nathanchance just mentioning you here to keep you apprised (as if you don't get enough mentions...)
I just tried it and mine doesn't work either with the Google provided adapter.
Update: It does work with my headphones.

FWIW, completely stock, using the adapter from the box with Audio Technica ATH-M50x works as expected.
For whatever reason however my Sol Republic wired cans no longer work with the adapter (they did previously on the DP's)

That might be telling. Mine are ATH-M30X.
Glad to know it isn't just me.

I think my kids have that model, I will try to find them and see if they work.
EDIT: found them, they work fine as well.
I stopped using the stock adapter as it is super lose in the port. I opted to purchase Razer's adapter as it's of a higher quality. I used it this morning while cooking breakfast and it worked great.
It may have just been a goof, but I was grabbing logs and happened to see a message that said my device was not capable of usb audio. Stock Pie rooted image from yesterday.
The audio adapter is not working on my Pixel 2 XL after the official Android P OTA update.

Question USB-C to Audio Jack

First time owning a phone with no audio jack.
Any recommended USB-C to Audio Jack adaptor?
Currently using Apple's earpods as my earphone on my OP5.
I don't really mind that the intended functions of the earphone buttons don't work when connected to an Android device.
As long as the sounds is very good and the mic works, it's fine for me.
Thanks in advance.
I use this adapter - Amazon UK Link
