It's the same, only more expensive. And the eBay one isn't in any fancy packing.

Well, I finally got around to testing the to I have. One is the original that came with my HTC U11. The other is the one that came with the Pixel 2. The official one from HTC is 10x better in sound quality. I was amazed at the difference it makes with a high level audio system.

The one made by Razer sounds amazing too! Much better than using the Sonic headphones that came with the phone.

That's what all of these adapters are for... plugging your 3.5mm headset jack into the adapter, so it can be used with the USB-C port.

Shiiiiit.. It plays awsome!!!!!! ?

since literally noone in the entire forum wants to bother saying the answer, the answer is yes

Do we know if the pixel's 2XL headset Adapter 3.5mm in the box, fits properly with HTC U12+ ?
So that i won't need to buy a separate adapter for HTC
Thanks

It's crazy how much they cost., and it's just to adapt to the majority of headset/earplugs, which have a 3.5 mm jack.
Shame shame shame on those oems who replaced the jack with the USB-C.

here are the ones i bought and they are cheap and work good on the U12+ Unlocked
https://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-C-Adap...var=562800782136&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
I ordered a couple other adapters because I have been looking for one that would charge the phone while listening to it at same time am waiting on those to arrive will update later to see if they work.

HTC U12+ Head Phone Adapters
I received these 2 adapters yesterday.
( https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-in1-USB-...var=651311904806&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 ) ( https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Type-C...var=651248873591&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 ) :crying::crying::crying:
NEITHER of these work ONLY CHARGE Phone. Same error POPUP
My previous post for the other adapters DO work but they are only Head Phone adapters ONLY.
( hence this is why I am looking for an adapter that will charge the phone while connected to my home stereo AUX input )
The HTC U12+ is COMPLETELY STOCK (NO ROOT or special software installed in it )
I even went to the point as to resetting and wiping out the phone since i really do not have much on it so I was not going to loose anything .

You can use "Audio Router" app to use these adapters (they are not working because there is no DAC inside).

Super cheap TV Out Cable

I read somewhere that a Nokia CA-75U cable works fine as a TV out cable for the Samsung Galaxy S (i9000) and so did a quick ebay search anf found many "compatible" etc all around £7-20
Anyways did a google and came across one place selling Geniune Nokia ones for an amazing low price of £2.03 I then thought I would get shafted on delivery charges but was even more amazed delivery was £0.01 . So ordered one on Wednesday and got it today.
I can confirm it works perfect, kids are currently watching Toy Story2 from my phone connected to my tv (im even upscaling to 1080p ) and it's working fine
http://www.superetrader.co.uk/genuine-nokia-tv-out-cable-ca75u-p-4301.html
jup, although it disconnect easily, doubt that an original cable would stay in the socket more firmly.. already over 20h video playback through cable with an outstandig picture quality, figuring it's 480p
Anyone know where I can get this same cable for cheap and ships to Canada?

It doesn't disconect easily at all, it's a standard 3.5mm jack if yours is disconnecting all the time its a manufacturing fault not to the correct specification.

Bought one. Arrived today.Works perfect. A big thank you.
Can you guys tell me if there is any "humming" with the sound? I have one of this Nokia cables but it gives me this distortions :/
Probably because of how your volume is set. The idea is to increase the volume on your SGS, not on the TV. If you the volume on your SGS is low and you just turn up the volume on your TV all you're going to do is make the noise more noticeable. Try finding a mid point between too much and too little volume on your SGS. Max volume would be ideal but that would kill your battery.
Just my $0.02. I could be wrong...
Hi, I know what you mean but it's not the case.
It's a strong humming, specially when there is too much "white" on the screen. It varies according to the picture.
Sounds very much like interferance somehow or the cable has the wrong pins set, I cannot really say for sure.
Arkymedes,
Same sh*t
to All: If you had this problem, and it was succesfully solved by replacement of cable , please report which cable did you buy and where.
Still hope it's not a hardware problem, but...

My guess is that's an incorrect image. But that also does suggest there maybe another nokia one that is micro usb that "may" work on the Galaxy.
The nokia one I have is a 3pin 3.5mm jack to svideo and L/R audio
The Galaxy S hdmi out cable uses micro usb to hdmi so it does mean they can output tv from the microsd so the cable you listed could very well work???
And yes if my amp is too high I do get a lot of crappy hiss on the audio I tried a dell cable and that gives the same so its not the nokias fault.
Just ordered one. Cheers OP!

TV-Out...does it work?

Does anyone know if TV-Out works with this phone? If so, what cable works?
Thanks for any help.
There is no TV-Out port on the Shift. Or am I misunderstanding something here?
On some phones, even though it's not advertised, the headphone jack has a video out section to it... A tv out cable for an ipod or zune (non touch screen versions for both) would work in that case, with rca outputs.
I have no idea if it's on this phone or not... Some phones have had it without advertising it

Yeah for instance on my HTC Incredible it has TV out but is not advertised, so just wondering if anyone knows for sure, before I buy a cable.
Wow thanks for the info, I had no idea. Sorry if I sounded condescending.
But one from walmart, and if it doesn't work, take it back.

Purchased the DINC cables from amazon. They are advertised as microUSB.
However they are not. Will not fit Shift4G microUSB port.
Would love to know if this works!
They might have one through the micro usb, but I think it would most likely be the headphone jack type with the extra section for video, like for an old school ipod

So, Is anyone already tried it..? recently I install CM10 on the device, basically I compared the system with some local phone brand (IMO Discovery S88), it's already ICS Built in and capable to do TV Out through its headphone jack. Can our phone do it too..? hope anyone already test it or just give me some clue on how to do it.

Hmmm.... very interesting. You know I never tried on the Shift. I do know that on my old TP2 it was not advertised. But it did work. I wonder if I still have those cables somewhere.
Try it i will
I still have a cable from my old TP, I will give it a go tonight and see what i can come up with as well.
I will try the headphone adapter from the TP as well.

Ok so I tried last night with the cable I used on my TP and that did not work. Went to try the headphone Adapter from the TP but my micro usb adapter didn't fit. I will retro locate another adapter and try to modify it to fit and try again.

Has anyone tried using USB-C Headphones?

Hello everyone!
This might be stupid question, but I've read about certain phones having issues with it...
Has anyone tried using USB-C headphones with the Pixel? My headphone jack is screwed up, but I'm content to just use USB-C instead, however, I want to be sure that it works before I order new headphones. I know bluetooth headphones are another option, but between deprecation of sound quality and having to charge them I'm not sure I want to go that route.
In addition to that, recommendations for USB-C headphones?
Your headphone jack is screwed up? RMA
Why not RMA it? Anyway, I'll check with my adapters in a bit.

My Fiio K1 works perfectly with a microUSB to type-c. It is a small and cheap DAC/amp that can drive anything that I personally throw at it. Even does an OK job pushing my Q701s. Just make sure you use a good cable. I am using a Fusion4K microUSB to type-c. I tried a few adapters and no-name cables, and they did not work.

I didn't really feel like going through RMA because the headphone jack wasn't a huge issue for me, as long as USB-C is a viable alternative. My concern was that some phones have issues with it due to the DAC being built into the C-headphones.
I don't know if it makes any difference, but to RMA with Verizon do they send the device and then you send yours back? I can't really afford to go without my phone for a week or whatever.

I'm not sure about the specifics of RMA through Verizon but I wouldn't trust a phone where one component was obviously faulty.

Nether of my 3.5mm to USB-C adapters worked. One came with my Moto Z and the other from Amazon. I don't have headphones that only have a USB-C plug. When I was looking for them there weren't many and the ones available had really bad reviews.
I would like to point out that only having a USB-C port isn't as magical as it sounds. I personally loath it. It's no fun having to keep track of the adapter. One of the reasons I bought the Pixel was because of the headphone jack.

Are you able to use the Pixel with the K1 as plug-n-play? Meaning you don't need a music app to play through them, so I could listen to Spotify or other apps?

Verizon overnighted a replacement to me and had me put the defective device in that box and send back. This was because my phone was freezing and rebooting an absurd amount. I'm not sure if they would do that for a headphone jack though

Has anyone tried the 3.5mm adaptor yet?

Hi.
Just tried the adaptor and the silence is deafening! No audio is being routed through it at all, tried Tidal and USB Audio Player Pro. I also have a DragonFly and audio is being routed through that fine.
The supplied USB headphones work fine too, and to be fair, are a lot better than I was expecting.
Thanks!

Silly question, are you using the HTC audio adapter or a 3rd party? Most audio adapters won't work with HTC phones. I have a couple Motorola ones and they won't work. I just tried the HTC branded one on mine and all seems ok.
It's the HTC one that doesn't work, my 3rd party one does.
I had an odd thing with my OnePlus 5. If i turned on OTG then an adapter or USB C headphones would function. If it was off, it wouldn't. I don't know if that could be reversed with the HTC, but something to check into.
I have 3 HTC headphone adapters and all function. Could be your specific adapter.

My U11 adapter works OK, so you have a problem somewhere...
Is the sound quality through the 3.5mm adaptor on par with HTC 10?
I love the sound of my 10 and want at least the same quality, but preferably better would be great
Where can you buy these for cheap? People on eBay selling this for $16.

I'm wrong ? The usb part is twice as long and thick for one? But I'm not going to say I'm 100% certain, I just simply read what someone adviced on here a year or two ago and they knew more than I do ????
Here's a picture to show you the size difference:

Where my information came from:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xz-premium/accessories/low-volume-headphones-solution-t3672401
All USB-C dongles have DACs
All of them.
USB-C outputs data, not audio. The dongle (be it Google's, HTC's, Apple's or Sony's) is what converts to an audio signal.
