Does Honor 8 support USB-C audio? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Does Honor 8 have that option to work with USB-C headphones, despite having built in headphone jack. Have anyone tried it??

I guess not. Didn't worked on one USB-C earbuds I tried.

Hmmm... Interesting I have read somewhere that honor 8 pro supports it but I assume that also not all USB C headphones work with all USB C devices???
Included 3.5 mm jack is a bit quiet for me so I hope a separate DAC could make the experience better...

Pixel USB-C Earbuds not working on OP6

Curious if anyone else has procured the new Pixel USB-C earbuds and tried them on a OP6 and/or OP5/5T. They are suppose to work on ANY PHONE running Android P....I am running the Android P Beta 5 on my OP6 and the phone doesn't seem to recognize that the headphone are plugged in AT ALL.... nada, nothing.

Someone on the OP forum just hipped me to turn on OTG setting....and now they work like a charm....though maybe I'll have to reactive this setting each time as it supposedly turns off after 10 minutes which will be a pain.
And pleasantly surprised to find out the BASS kicks on these things...as all the other reviews I have seen out there say they lacked such.
You need to activate OTG in the settings get them working.
Hey,
I also got these buds for my OP6. They work fine and I also enabled always on for the OTG option. But the music control (pause, start, skip, google assistant) are not working at all.
Volume UP and DOWN are working fine.
Any suggestions?

Nope. But when I activated OTG for the 1st time it did step me through a set up menu for the headphone. And again I am on Beta 5.
Maybe because the op6 have usb 2 and pixel have 3.1?

Naw. It is suppose to work on all phones with USB C and Android P regardless of port version. Hopefully OP will get rid of the need to activate the OTG setting since the OP6T won't even have a headphone jack.

Theory:
The OP6T gets Usb-C headphones and maybe the handling of Usb-C headphones is already shipped to user within the beta versions.
I can't imagine OP lets its users always reenable the otg option when they remove the headphone jack and develop their own usb-c headphones.
I can#t verify this at the moment maybe someone else can?
So today I tried the OP6T USB-C adapter on my OP6 and nothing. Wasn't even detected. I didn't try turning on OTG but come on, I can't believe this isn't supported with Android 9 out of the box. Of course it works on the OP6T fine.

You will have to turn on the OTG until they update the firmware.
Hi guys, I'm on op6 with oxygen 9.0.2 and I would like to use USB c port because jack output is not that good at quality, in my opinion. I tried with enabling otg in the notification bar, but I really can't make my USB c headphones work! Is there anything else I have to do? Thanks

I assume out mean the OTG Storage setting under "System" menu ? That should do the trick.

Yeah right that. But that didn't do the trick...headphones still not detected I'm using Sony Wh-Ch700n with USB c adapter. They work fine on mi Mix 2 (and there audio quality looks far better to me) than on OP6 using 3,5mm jack. That's why I would like to try USB c port...

Hmmm. I never tried an adapter on my OP6. Just the Pixel Buds. My daughter has my old OP6 now...otherwise I would try the adapter I just got for a friend as it works on my OP6T. I do know some adapters only work on certain phones. This is the adapter I bought (it list OnePlus)

Thank you, please let me know if you can make it work in USB C. I'm really curious., If it is going to work, I will definitely buy a better adapter.

Calling with USB C Earphones?

Hi,
So bought these awesome Razer USB C earphones which have a built in mic. They work fine as both earphones and a microphone but for some reason the native phone app will not route the call audio through them!
I have no doubt this is a quick fix for Samsung kernel or otherwise as they remove the USB port from the next generation of phones but I would expect USB C earphones to work. Other phones like Oppus, Huwei, HTC and Pixel don't seem to have issues.
Any ideas here?
I have the OnePlus USB-C Bullet earphone, it works fine both for audio and for a call.
I've been trying my old HTC headphones I got with the U11. Sadly these don't work at all as they are brilliant headphones.
Probably because of the active noise cancelation they need a specific driver.
Okay, will return and try these instead.

The OnePlus USB-C earphones didn't work with my Note 9 either. At least these are cheaper...
I believe some of those headsets use a analog pass trough instead of having their own DAC so they only work with a phone that supports that

How are you setting it up? When I plug in through USB-C in my car, I don't get sound at all (I used to, with my old Pixel 3XL).
I have to plug in through the headphone jack, which gives me pretty bad interference.
It's the main reason I was initially considering the Mi10 Pro, but I've decided it's not worth it, as the camera set is about the same.

it is running out of the box. just plug it in and all sounds are playing boys via the usb c headset.. no settings were needed.
same with my usb c DAC dongle.
for me the mi note 10 pro is worth it because of the bigger storage, (i make a lot of 4k Videos)

You can not use a direct usb-c to aux cable, that will not work. If you have an adapter with a built in DAC, it WILL work. Fully depends on what you have lying around / ordered.
you cant use USB-C Audio alternative mode.

Not sure why would that be the case on type C to 3.5mm aux cable when it's wired all the same unless your usb type c is missing some pins.

Question S21+ recognize USB-C headset but no audio is coming?

I have Asus TUF Gaming H3 wireless headphones. They are connecting via USB-C dongle.
Headphones works just fine on PC, Galaxy A52, Huawei Mate 10 Pro. I will try to test them on few other devices.
My S21+ recognize them, headphones recognize that dongle is connected but no audio is coming.
Is that some software issue, hardware issue or just compatibility?
Thanks
S21 series doesnt have a dac so if the dongle has a dac inbuilt, then only the headphones will work.

Hi mehra1, thank you very much for your answer.
Interesting is, that my old Huawei USB-C headphones that came with Huawei Mate 10 Pro works perfectly with S21.
So basically, I will need USB-C to USB-C adapter with DAC? Does such adapter even exist?

I have bought myself from India Amazon site for 800 ruppes. You just need to check if that has dac or not, it will be mentioned.
