Depends from product.
Some Android 7.1.1 PX5 HUs have fully working HDMI out with sound.
Look at this russian forum:

Android board sounds only. No radio, hands free or DVD (all of them are on MCU board).

The Desire HD/Inspire unfortunately do not support HDMI out.
They were designed to use DLNA for all video out.
could you guys forward me to tutorials or information on any hardware/software i need?

This is your best bet if your TV does not support DLNA streaming:
http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/30/htc-media-link-dlna-streamer-review/
There could be cheaper alternatives though.

Is there a certain app in the Android Market that could do this using perhaps a PS3?

This is what u need:

HTC Desire HD Media Link DLNA Adaptor.
Media Link is a DLNA multimedia adaptor converting your non-DLNA TV into a full DLNA certified TV.
Simply power on and connect to the HDMI port on your TV, Desire HD will be able to wirelessly stream video/movies (up to 720p), photo, and music content stored on the device to DLNA-enabled HDTVs or to standard HDTVs via its new Media Link adapter with HDMI out.

Line-out audio output

Hi all.
I'm wondering if it's possible to get a line-out somehow on the Sensation, or even a digital audio output, such as on the iphone?
Can it be done maybe through the MHL port? USB?
Can't you just use the mini-jack output? Maybe I don't understand your question.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using Tapatalk
Hi. Thanks for your answer.
I don't want to use the regular audio output, since I want a clean output, not amplified or equalized.
My purpose is to connect my sensation to an exterior amplifier, such as the fiio e7, or the digizoid zo2, to which I'll connect my headphones.

I personally use this DAC sometimes :
http://www.htc-gifts.co.uk/p/Audio-...tail/Fiio-E10-USB-DAC-Headphone-Amplifier.php
And it works very well indeed.
There are many more DAC Amps on the market now, but this gives a nice rich sound for the price. (Ebay is a good place to look)
**Edit-Apologies, I misread your question. And totally missed the Line out request.**

Do you use the E10 as a DAC + amp or as an amp only?

I use it on multiple Gadgets really, Netbook, Guitar, Ipod, Xbox etc as a great Amplifier.
And the DAC makes a huge difference to the Sound quality of Streaming media such as Napster/Last FM.
I've just noticed the updated E17 :
http://www.trustedreviews.com/fiio-e17_Portable-Audio_review
(It looks very nice indeed!)
And there's a thread here that may be handy in relation to it being paired with Smartphones/Devices:

If you have a Richersounds (Or similar retailer) near you, they are usually brilliant for providing Demonstrations. Just call them and they will arrange it for you.
Good luck.

Through the USB.
I use a mini usb-Spdif converter cable with my Sensation and IPad too.
The box then does the Processing magic.
I'm really not sure about MHL/HDMI sound output to be honest.

Hey !!
Thanks for the answer.
What is this "mini usb-Spdif converter cable" that you speak of? You just connect one side to the HTC, and the other to the DAC/Amp? And if we're on the subject - what DAC/Amp do you use?
Yes sorry ignore me, I didn't explain that too well, the Spidif cable is only when I use it to connect to my PC from my iPad.
I use the E10 with sensation (See picture) which just needs a USB input for any additional power/or Devices.
Cheers

3.5mm from sensation to E10.
And then line out or Coaxial for audio output.
I don't actually think that sensation has USB audio host support,(USB to USB) which is influenced by the kernel. But it will happen at some stage with ICS no doubt.

Don't be sorry... we all have our hands full...
Anyway, if I connect a 3.5mm jack from sensation to a 3.5mm into the E10, then it's not actually line-out, because the audio passes through the internal amplifier (in the sensation), and also through the equalizer, so by the time it gets to your ears, it passes through 2 amps and 2 equalizers (cause the E10 also has a built in eq'), which quite distorts it.

Yes, have a search for "sensation OTG/USB host'.*
It was hoped that ICS would bring us closer to achieving it fully.
Once again it's very much Kernel dependent.
I'm wondering if a MHL audio splitter (of some kind) connected to mini-usb is possible, to seperate the Audio channel?
Anyway, good luck, and I'll keep looking.
Cheers.
*I believe OTG stands for "On the Go".

Indeed... It can also serve as an external soundcard. And in most cases (Laptops at least) it does a better job than the built in one.
Although I'd prefer this little cool thing, over the E10:

Most headphone go to 20Hz, and the high-end ones go even lower. And it connects with a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable.

[Question] Maximum Volume output settings

What files do I need to modify to increase maximum levels for the speakers?
Mainly when I plug my xoom into its media dock there is no difference in volume from the speaker built into the xoom to the media dock. I would like to have it where it is at least twice as loud as the build in speakers not the same. I am running running the latest cm10.1 nightly with elemental 1.2 kernel

You can control volume level inside MX Player by dragging your finger up or down on the right side of the screen. You will discover MX Player will significantly exceed the volume level attained by other media players. I don't know if there are other players that also have this feature. If listening through earphones confirms what I have described it should also increase the volume at your dock.

Is there sound if you use headphones? If so, I'd suspect you may have a poor contact between the tablet and dock, loose or broken wire. And, if there is no sound when using headphones the problem may be with the female connector integral to your tablet. I assume the tablet speakers work.

Not true. It wouldn't sound like true 7.1 but there's lots of software emulation out there for surround sound. Take any device with a Surround and Stereo option with stereo headset, speakers, earbuds etc and there's a marked difference. Not as good as having real 7.1 hardware but it's an improvement depending on what you're listening to (I like it better for movies but it's not good for music typically).

Not to hear a difference, you don't. Have you honestly not ever heard of virtual surround on stereo speakers? It's been around since the 5.1 days. It sounds no where near as good as having actual surround sound hardware but there is a big difference in sound. Naturally if you prefer it is dependent on you but there IS a difference. As I stated earlier, I found it to be an improvement for movies but not music.

Nexus 5 Audio/Sound (DAC) Quality

Hi,
Could someone give some feedback on the sound quality of the Nexus 5, any idea what sort of DAC the phone is using? Is it using something similar to the LG G2 as that has the same chipset.
Thanks
I think the Snapdragon 800 uses the same awesome audiochip feom qualcom as the other Snapdragon 600 devices. But we have to test this out..
I'll test it with my ciem as soon as it arrives

I am no audio expert but I was listening to music last night on headphones and was very impressed with the quality of sound. It was just about loud enough which was my main worry. Bass was very good too. I was not using stock music player as I use a Synology media server and was therefore using DS audio. I just need to get a decent graphic equaliser installed as I can't find one on the phone. Any suggestions?

You need to use DS audio? Else you could use the jetaudio player or neutron.
If you need a systemwide one, what about dsp manager from cyanogen? I think they'll soon got a ROM up for the N5.
Please someone knows what is the nexus 5 DAC?
it's WCD9320. The same one as in G2
Just keep in mind that if the Soc is Snapdragon S4, regardless the generation, there is always a very good DAC inside .

This is actually a Snapdragon 800 which is better than what the S4 and the HTC one has. To my knowledge, only the Galaxy note III and LG G2 have the same SoC in the states
If the SoC is Snapdragon 800 then it already has WCD9320 integrated, which is a very good DAC.
Hence WCD9320 is 100% confirmed, unless LG is crazy and stupid, and they solder another DAC on the board.
Actually, the amplifier matters more, and affects a large portion of sound quality.

Viper4Android is the way to go!
according to the service manual for the nexus 5 the DAC is indeed the WCD9320. so same as in the G2.
from listening to it its better than the nexus 4 but not as good as the woflsons in the S3 but still very decent.
Listen to some city and color and you will enjoy the speakers and any headphones you plug in .

does the N5 support audio thru usb OTG so we can use external DAC/AMP? I've read sumwhere mention usb OTG in kit kat. However, this doesn't mean the nexus 5 support USB OTG nativly (like the N4).
I am somewhat underwhelmed with the audio quality on the N5,unlike most I knew that the two grills on the bottom of the phone only one of which is a loud speaker,However the audio is IMO piss poor.via headphones its outstanding paired with my seneizer cx300II's (spelling) via the loudspeaker its very quiet and tinny,not to mentions the grills are VERY easily muffled. Just my two cents.
