[Q] Speaker Dock?

Any recommendations for a good speaker dock? Looking for something I can use to stream Google music or Sirius XM from my phone through while outdoors/traveling.
I haven't really seen anything that I can actually set/dock the E4GT in with a speaker but I have a 3.5 mm adapter I can use to plug in with. Curious as to what you guys are using. Thanks!

Got cash? They have BT and 3.5mm audio in. I'm not sure if they support audio over the micro-usb connection. Seems rather overpriced IMO.
I personally use a cheap mini-speaker with 3.5mm in, similar to the Scosche Boomcan. Fits in my computer bag and under $20. I have yet to find a compact universal speaker dock, with an adjustible/universal micro-usb port. Please post if you discover one.
Edit: This one is interesting, but no bluetooth for $99? No thanks.

I use this. I sale these as well. Me, my gf, and several friends I've sold them to love them! why worry about a dock when you can use Bluetooth

Thanks for the responses guys.. I am really digging that Philips speaker dock, esp if they have it at my local Best Buy but @ 135 dang!

I use a jawbone jambox and love it

3.5mm audio cable with remote and maybe mic

Does anywhere shipping to the UK sell a 3.5mm male-to-male or female-to-male cable including a remote fully compatible with the S3 (i.e. not an iPhone remote).
If it includes a microphone, that would be a bonus.

Please check this thread.

I'm also looking for a cable like this (female to male), but with mic. I would appreciate if anyone would recommend one. I 've one from Sony but it doesn't work (sound output works fine but Mic doesn't!).

[Q] car dock with USB audio and charging

Does anyone know if one exists? I would love to have a single cable in my phone to charge and for audio. Unfortunately my car stereo (Audi rnse) doesn't support Bluetooth streaming.

I really doubt this will work for your nexus 5, but a search on ebay found this to be the closest to what your asking for:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-B-USB...Phone_PDA_Cables_Adapters&hash=item5d40faf05b
If your car at least has aux output, then you can either use a usb car charger as well. plug the audio into the aux port, the usb into charging port, and then the micro usb into your phone. The ebay listing states specifically for certain phone models, nothing even close to a nexus though. But for under $10, its worth a shot.

I have a USB charger and aux port but means two wires annoyingly. Does nexus 5 support audio out via USB?

why not use a bluetooth audio adapter which connects to the AUX port if you have one, i have no wires anymore to my phone , i use the OWL Carpad Qi charger (i have some issues right now but seems like hardware issue) and i use a Belkin AirCast Car Audio Wireless Bluetooth AUX Music HandsFree Kit, i normally wanted to go with the Kinivo BTC450 Bluetooth Hands-Free Car Kit but thats no available in my country .
So i go into my car just mount the phone in the car pad were i also use a nfc tag to enable bluetooth and turn off other stuff, and start the engine, now my phone gets charged then I press the belkin and i am connected and music is playing , i also use it now as my handsfree because i am absolutely fine with the quality.

For USB audio you will need a car stereo that supports audio over USB. I suggest looking into Bluetooth. That's how I do it and I love it.

Question is though....does the Nexus 5 support audio through USB????

No one? Does slim port or whatever the standard in nexus has, not support audio USB output?

Try them out, that is what I use and I simply plug the usb cable into the GROM Audio box, then into my phone, and enjoy music from my phone and charging as well.
For the dock, I just use the InfiniApps Slyde Magnetic CD Slot Mount($25 on Amazon)

I tried with my old GSII car dock and it's not working.

Does the Grom Audio box USB cable audio streaming works with the Nexus 5? I'm considering buying it but searching around I'm not sure it works with the Nexus 5.

Type c dongle and headphone cable not working

Not sure if I'm missing something. But I've been trying to get my shure se535s working with my note 10+
I first bought a type c to 3.5mm dongle which didnt work. So I then purchased a rather pricey type c to mmcx cable to replace the entire cable for my monitors. But that doesnt work either. Device just plays audio out of the speakers.
The provided headphones work just fine (be it they are runnish).
Anyone got any ideas?? I wasnt bothered about the headphone jack removal at first as I had 2 options but neither of these seem to work

I plugged in the headphones that came with the phone and the connection was horrible. I literally had to hold them in because if the phone moved it would disconnect and then my phone call would come out of the speaker not the headphones. I just think the typs C connection sucks.
I have the Shure BT cable and I use BT most of the time. I purchased it off of Amazon. Works great. I also suggest getting Comply replacement foam tips.

You have to get a certain kind. Some brands of adapters don't have a built in DAC. Go get a Samsung branded one from Best buy and see if it works. That's what I had to do.

Isn't there a DAC inside the phone?

Have to have an adapter with a DAC. my $10 one off amazon works fine.

I use this one and it works great:

I’m using apples version..7 bux amazon

Apparently not. I asked the same question on reddit and people said the same thing. Samsung didnt put an in built dac to convert the signals over. So cheap dongles dont work. And nor does my over prices $90 shure cable... but a few people recommended the google branded one used for the pixel. And amazon reviewers confirmed it worked with the note 10+

I can't comment on that one, but since I've dealt with this issue from my Pixel 2XL, there are adapters with both the DAC and a power in, but with both ports on the end of the box. That side mounted power input looks awkward to use.
I bought this one, but I'm trying to find it to test with the Note 10+. So I can't confirm it works just yet. But anyway, having both connections on the end is much easier to work with.
There are also others with slightly smaller "boxes" or different shaped boxes, so pay attention to that as well. When I find this one and test, I'll update.

Edit: I confirmed the one I linked above works with PD, or at least it says fast charger connected and estimates 34 minutes to fully charge from 79%. So far, all the adapters and headsets I tried that I bought for the Pixel 2XL have worked with the Note 10+. So I think when shopping on Amazon, things that are compatible with the Pixel 2XL are compatible with the Note 10+.
I personally hate that they do this. They have to convert the audio for the speakers and then they just got cheap on not doing the same straight pass through connection for the USB C connector. Those USB C adapters are dirt cheap, though the ones with a DAC chip have come way down from when the only major phones that needed them were the Pixel 2's and the Essential phone or whatever that thing is called.

I'm assuming it does. I usually get a "weak charging" message when I use non-fast charging-compatible chargers. I've not seen that appear on my 10+ yet.

I received the dongle you linked to, today. Fast charging works when you don't listen to music at the same time when charging. It doesn't bother me though. I'm very happy with it ?

Tried a a few cheap adapters. All won't work. I found one Basues adapter that worked but the sound either dies or becomes mono when you touch the metal parts of the adapter.

I have this 3.5mm to usb c dongle from galaxy tab s5e.
Surprisingly, it doesn't work with note 10+. Only works with s5e.
Not sure why.
Anyway, the usb c headphone works in both device. So I only carry one.
I guess people will need to buy dongle from samsung as usual dongle not working, even the only from samsung for s5e.

The connection is firm for me. You should get an exchange or something.

again use apples dongle. its working for me no issues and its 7 bux.

If you go on ebay you can find the razer phone adapter. That seriously has a punch twice as loud as other adapters and powers bigger headphones way better. The 24 bit DAC is awesome.

You can get it from the razer site. I'm in UK so here's the link for the UK site. I'm sure it's available on other regional sites
https://www.razer.com/gb-en/mobile/razer-phone-audio-adapter
You can also find it on ebay for cheaper.
I've tested on note 10 plus 5g, one plus 7 Pro and mate 20 Pro and mic and volume buttons work fine

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
