How is sound with the dongle? - Huawei MediaPad M5 Questions & Answers

Can any owner comment on how is the sound thru the Dongle.? I want to use my Bose noise cancelling headset which has a 3.5 mm jack.
Do the Dongles have a Digital to Audio Converter, like those for the Pixel 2? It would also be nice to be able to listen to wired audio and charge the tablet at the same time. There are lots of dongles that support this. Most of the dongles dont have a built-in DAC.

I'd be interested in an answer to that question as well. Just pre-ordered my MediaPad M5 Pro model including the M-Pen as well as the Keyboard-Case. Would be great to know how it works before it arrives.

The sound is very good, equivalent to my nexus 7 2013. I don't think the dac is in the dongle, I believe it makes contact with analog pins inside the usb-c port, but I could be wrong. No idea about charging at the same time, that's definitely not possible with the included dongle.

I bought a dongle that let's you charge and listen to music but it was just a cheap one and you can hear static when charging but I think that's because it is cheap

Doesn't it charge painfully slowly, like at 150mA?

yes, it works with any iphone compatible headset... i've used my Astro A30's to make video calls on the TF
Mine does not work either. Neither in Skype nor in GTalk. It acts like there isn't a mike in the headset and uses the built-in mike. Same head-set/mic works on iphone and Galaxy S phone and on Galaxy-Tab...
What ROM are you running? I can confirm it indeed works. Built my own splitter cable so that I could use a separate mic and earphones with it.
Thanks!

Update: 2011/06/21 ---------- RMA'd my transformer due to the headset connection mic not working---
Received the new unit today and the mic port works great... I guess they've been in a bit of a hurry to get these eee pads out the door... Thank you to newegg for responding quickly and no charge.
Cheers, hope this is useful to you all, if it's broken, get it replaced, a.s.a.p.

..Gtalk and Skype. And the Bluetooth Motorola S10-HD works too
As I hate earpieces in general, especially when using them for prolonged time.
Do anyone have a suggestion for a good headset with normal padded ear-muffs (unsure what they are called in English)?
The alternative might be to buy 3.5mm headset/mic to 3.5mm adapter (2xTRS to TRRS) and use one of my existing PC based headsets. Found one - see http://www.amazon.co.uk/Steel-Serie...GY/ref=sr_1_50?ie=UTF8&qid=1307990319&sr=8-50

MHL question

Just wondering if all MHL adapters are the same. Meaning, can I use a generic non-HTC adapter on my Rezound?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
I believe so. Someone posted that a monoprice one worked on his GSII. I know that is a different phone but it is likely that HTC hasn't blocked generic ones if samsung didn't.

The monoprice adapter works for my Rezound.
Thx for the help, just order a 10$ mhl adapter. After this bad boy set me back 600$ i'm trying to squeeze all the accessories I can outta this weeks paycheck.
I'll let you guys know how it goes when I get it.
The thunderbolt/EVO 3D htc mhl adapter works.
How can I control my phone with out touching it?
(Watching netflix and don't want to get up every time)
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
The Monoprice MHL adapter works like a charm. You can't use your HTC cable in the adapter though. So pick up a long enough 5 pin micro usb cable( I am using a 6' wish I would have bought bigger) and long enough HDMI cable for your set up so you don't have to stand next to your TV operate the phone and watch it on the TV.
to further add to the question, if you're going through the MHL->HDMI to your telie, will it also keep your phone charged?
Yes you plug the adapter to the phone and the wall

Yeah its a lot going on for our phone to display on a TV. My wife's Bionic has hdmi out, that is so easy! Just bought a hdmi to micro hdmi cable from monoprice for 3 bucks for my wife's phone. The Rezound looks like a octopus just to display to the TV!
Where u guys getting the monoprice MHL? Amazon? I haven't connected any phone to my tv since my original EVO days. Would love to do it with this one. Thanks fellas

No, the video parts of the NFL app will not work. I have tried it and when you try to access video content, the screen you are connected to view blank.
Thats weird. I thought u can view anything that's on your phone... Even the home screen!? Is there anything else that doesn't work through the mhl?

I recieved mine from Monoprice, works great. But it HAS to be connected to power (charger or USB both work) to function, not just if you want the phone to charge while using the adapter.
What I did was use a short HDMI cable, short micro USB cable plugged into one of my TVs USB ports for power, and then mounted the adapter to the back of my TV with velco. I then use a micro usb extension cable to connect the adapter to my phone, cutting down a TON on the octopus effect. And I can always disconnect the adapter to take it with me somewhere.
Is this the adapter everyone is buying, its $14 not $10 so want to make sure I'm not missing anothr one on their site. http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8675&seq=1&format=2

Why not?
Only if your car stereo have something like line input, and you should hear your music through car's stereo

Yess. My car's stereo has a aux input but they say this cable is for iPhone/iPod so is it also compatible with Neo?

It's marketing s**t
This cable is just standard 3.5mm. I wonder why they don't use HD word for cables, it's so cool

Beats?

Hi,
I have beats by dre and the buttons that came with the wired are similar to the Samsung headphones. What I mean by that is that they both feature volume up and down and the button for switching tracks and answering calls.
However, my problem is that the button in the middle for switching tracks etc works but the volume up and down don't?
Is there a solution for this?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yeah.... Just burst it open and switch the small cables until it works then screw it back together again. OR you could cut the wire on both samsung earpiece and beats, just switch them around so you got samsung buttons with beats headphones attached, simple!

It's not a problem exclusive to beats though, i think many 3 button headphones have trouble working with android devices. Maybe if you'd care to share a pair that work without problems, the OP would consider them if the issue is bugging him that much, telling him to 'buy proper headphones' doesnt really help him.
I have beats also and the volume up and down buttons dont work, but it's not a major issue for me. I downloaded
Headset Button Controller from the google play store, it allows you to control everything using just the single button (double tap skips to next track, triple tap goes to previous track etc) works well..

My cousin bought those, the sound quality is extremely poor.
Flat and tinny, bass is non existent.
For that kind of money you could get high quality headphones.
I got sennheiser HD 202's for around 30 euro.

Yeah I have sennheiser cx300 ear buds. £14:100%. Mate compared them to similar beats earbuds. Suffice to say the beats owner wasn't happy with the results

I have those too! I use them for when I'm out and about and the hd202's for around the house.
I think they are great quality and very reasonably priced!
When you buy beats 99% of the price is for the logo.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I've got the Pro's and they're really good! Not saying that for the same price you don't get way better one's, but they are really good for trance music. I would have got something else instead, but they were a gift.
Got the same problem with the 3 button cable. Also the mic is not working properly, making funny issues.
I just use the simple cable with no button.
I have been looking for a adaptor from iphone made headphones to others, but none that work for the s3...

Yeah they're good for the price. Its pretty hard to distort them. I think if you Mix poweramp, full bass and any Hybrid track though, you're in trouble. But they do me.
Bit gutted, got up on the bus, caught the chord on the seat and ripped the left out of my ear. Must have strained the connection as the left is only 75% volume compared to the right
Beats is a marketing gimmick
thanks

Audio through headphone jack video through MHL

I tried searching the forums with no luck. What I am trying to do is hook my phone up to a projector with mhl but I am not running through a receiver. I want to play audio out of the headphone jack to some computer speakers. I am rooted on stock rom. Any help would be great
