[Q] Audio over USB - HTC Inspire 4G

Hi All,
I just got the phone and love it but would like to be able to play my music from my SD card over my stereo without having to mount it as a usb drive, basically be able to use the usb plug to charge and carry audio over and being able to control it from the phone not the stereo itself.
When I had my iPhone I was able to put it in "iPod by hand mode" which would let me switch songs via the phone and not the stereo controls and I could also play Pandora over it as well and I would love to have this functionality back.
Thanks!

[Q] Music Remote Control to use in car

Hello,
I am looking for a music remote control to use while driving, so I don't have to reach for my phone to change music track.
Right now I am learning toward buying one of these:

With these, you are supposed to plug your headphones into that dogtag. My question is, if you don't plug your headphones into the dogtag, but instead plug the headphones into the phone itself, will the music come through the phone itself? If it doesn't then it defeats the purpose//

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but it sounds like you're missing the point.
You pair that device with your phone, and audio will be sent from your phone to it via bluetooth. You then connect the "dogtag" to your car's head unit's aux-in. You can then control the audio via the buttons on the dogtag.
edit: oh I see what you mean. You want to use the dogtag solely for control and still connect the headunit directly to the phone? I haven't fiddled with BT audio in a long time, so I'm not sure if you can deselect the audio profile and just use control. If not, sound will be routed over bluetooth.
You could look into a headunit with bluetooth support as well.
i have that same headset, which is originally desigend by jabra as BT3030. didn't use it anymore but just checked what you are trying to find out.
1. when the headset is not connected to telephone media you are not able to use the dogtag to control the player.
2. if the dogtatg is connected to telephone media your are able to control the player but the headphone out of the phone is muted.
so it does not work the way u want it to. sry mate
But I'm not exactly sure why you'd want to plug the phone into the car and use the remote by itself.
Plug the remote into the car and it becomes more or less a fixed item.
You'll be able to do everything just the same, except that there's a wire or two connecting to the remote.
You'll be able to leave the phone in your pocket. Depending on the design of that BT player, if it switches on and resumes playback when there is USB power, it'd be pretty much a completely automated solution. Turn the car on, USB power is supplied, it pairs with your phone in your pocket, and playback resumes.

[Q] Redirect audio from headphone jack to USB?

Is there a method for redirecting audio from a streaming music player (Spotify, IheartRadio, etc.) to play through the USB port instead of the headphone jack on the HTC One S? I primarily play music through my car stereo and would prefer to use the USB connection instead of the AUX port since I would be able to charge my phone while listening using only 1 cable. This method works fine if I want to mount the SD card and listen to the music stored on my phone but I don't believe it works for streaming audio.
There was an app called SoundRedirector that was built for the Samsung Galaxy S that did this when it was docked in the OEM car mount.
Thanks

[Q] Use USB on car stereo?

Hi,
Is there a way to play my music on my USB car stereo without losing cell connectivity? I'd like to use either Google play, or player pro and funnel the music through my stereo so my stereo picks up the music, tags, and can control back and forward without putting it in to disk mode. Is this possible?

USB audio

Hey I heard with lollipop we would have USB audio. When I connect my nexus 5 to my car through a USB cable and play some music it doesn't play from the car speakers. Whereas an iPhone was able to play music. Any help on how to make it work would be appreciated.
Probably your car audio needs a software upgrade to work with Android devices/L's USB DAC support.
Your car is looking for a file system, android USB audio is providing stream not a file system so this probably wont work unless the deck can emulate a small sound card or something to accept the input.

No audio with Xiaomi ANC Type-C earphones

Just today I received my earphones but I have some troubles trying listen music with my moto z, when I conect it, the cellphone recognize it like a charger and ask me if I want only charge, transfer data, etc., I made some tests with spotify and power amp but the music only plays with the speaker not with the earphones, then I saw in developer settings an actived option "not enable audio @ USB", I turned off the option, restart my phone and made a second test with spotify, play music and power amp, this time the earphones deliver sound but after 5 seconds the music stops, I need to quit the earphones and connect it again but every time only plays during 5 seconds, someone knows how can I use it? any setting that I need to chage, activate, deactive...
Thank you
Trying fixes I discover Onkyo HF player, only with this my earphones work.

I believe it uses an non standard "analog" implementation of Type-C to 3.5mm headphone, thus it won't register. (HTC and Huawei did this as well)
To be honest, the USB-C Standard is pretty messed up (it's so... not standard). Not only every producer has a different interpretation of this standard, also USB-c wasn't created with audio pins in mind. the USB Type-C Audio standard came up merely one year ago.
Funny enough, these headphones are compatible with a few Xiaomi phones that have USB-C (but not all, couple of models are not supported, especially with one with built-in mini-jack)
Does it not work when selecting 'audio source' in the developer options?

It would be nice if they had this stuff figured out before killing the 3.5mm jack hey?
We're left with expensive bluetooth earbuds that sound like **** and a dongle that's hard to replace and easy to lose.

Its not that hard to replace (not super convenient, but also not unspeakably horrible)
This dongle works great, is inexpensive and arrives pretty quickly:

The issue is the USB DACs that OEMs are putting out but not making it compatible with generic drivers. Think of it like this: you can buy a Windows compatible USB sound card. This sound card is not available in macOS unless you have the drivers. However, there's no way for a user to add drivers (unless rooted) to an Android phone.
Xiaomi should have made their headphones work with standard drivers as well as their custom ones.
