Hi guys,
I know there were several threads about this theme, but I thought it might be a good idea to have a summary after almost a year that the device is on the market. I love my I9000, but...
I would like to have a docking station for my Samsung I9000 int. edition just like so many beautiful ones for iPhone. Is there anything similar available on the market which would work as simple as iPhone docking stations: you plug your phone in, choose your music and you get a decent sound from the speakers on the docking station. I was not able to find one. Any help?
It would not hurt if it did the charging at the same time.
What would be in your experience the best solution for this? I would not mind connecting sound line through 3.5 mm jack plug, but what is in your opinion the best solution for < 100 €/$/UK pounds?
Thanks for any advice/help/suggestions...

i know that there is the one where u connect it to the micro usb slot but I dont know if it will work fro Galaxy s
A docking station is so early 2000s.
And Samsung made it hard for everyone by putting the usb slot on top of the phone.
Just to re-activate the thread:
I must admit, I am so 2000-ish that I would like to have a docking station (potentially with a loudspeaker that does more than just krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrk ) and
this is the only thing I envy those iPhone guys who I can not stand.
So, once again: any suggestions for a dockingstation with some kind of a decent music outcome. Must not be for I9000, but should be usable with I9000 giving decent sound for not more than 60-70 USD (if it is more, than I might just get one from B&O or any other highly-priced that you would kindly suggest).
Regards,
Pavana
You'll have a hard time finding one of those for the i9000/android phones. Best way is to buy this cable and get any cheap iphone/ipod dock
Where I can buy orginal docking station in good price of course?
There's no such thing as a "original docking station" for the Galaxy S.
OK, we got all screwed up with samsungs stupid headphone jack on the top side. But, amongst ourselves we can exchange experience about what is the best combination: We know that we have to charge the batteries independently from music playing. Among all the docking stations, who has good experience with which type of the docking station for the quality of music output when we hook up independently power supply and audio output. Is there any any good Bose system that give GOOD sound output (every power supply will eventually fulfill the function). Do we have to go for the expensive Bose system or are there any (closely) adequate loudspeaker systems which we can hook up to our i9000 to give us good music at home (Sennheiser headphones should do the trick on the go)?
In another words: I have decent Sennheiser earphones for listening to the music from my I9000, but, when it comes to home/lousspeaker system which one would you recommend I can hook up my I9000 to get a decent audio output ? (if you are suggesting Bose systems - which would would you recomennd?).( I do understand that there are no I9000 only docking stations that would give good acoustic output and charge the battery simoultaneously, but I can hook up the battery charger independently of the music output).
As for my earphones - I have a model that has only ear-loudspeakers but no microphone for answering phone - which model would you recommend in order to be able to answer my phone through a microphone on the speaker as well?)
Regards,
Pavana

the original samsung desktop dock exists...
Hi Guys!
This desktop dock can be ordered at Amazon:
Being a noobsta I can't insert the link, so search for:
"Samsung Galaxy S T-Mobile T959 Vibrant Desktop Dock Cradle in Retail Packaging" in google or on amazon.
And actually I could buy it at an official Samsung retailer here in Hungary, so it should be available in other places as well.
There is a truly crap official Samsung App for it, but it is useless.
On the other hand there is an App on the market called Galaxy Dock Sound Redirector.
Once again no link from me, but you can find the app on the market.
The dock has a micro usb for charging and a jack output for audio and with this great app you can redirect the sound to go through the analogue output at the back of the dock.
However now, since I've flashed to ICS 4.0.3 (I9000_STOCKPLUS_ICS_RC4-PLUS) I can't use the app. There is an error message saying "Cannot find supported rom or kernel". I contacted the dev and got the info that it should work on Glitch kernel. I'm still not sure what ICS ROM and kernel combo I should be using so the app is not working yet.
Anyone who has the recipe could share it with us...
Oh and another thing: the usb port on the dock can only be used for charging. You can't connect to PC with it. I donno if this a hardware or software issue, but it would be great if you could truly dock to the PC. Anyone with an experience?
The docked SGS looks really good on your desk
Does anyone know if a type c splitter or adapter exists that splits the port allowing for the use of 3.5mm headphones and charging simultaneously? I've only seen an adapter by belkin for apple's lightning port. Thanks!
You need a USB-C hub with charging support. I don't know of any that have been verified to work.
Hoping for something like this as well.

The battery of LP3 is excellent so no need to charge and listen at the same time. Or get a BT headset or BT receiver if you gonna use it to your primitive car. =D

unfortunately, there are times when i need to make a call (voice or video) outside of my car and the battery is low, requiring a charge (such as on a flight). bluetooth headphones aren't always readily available (or charged), so I'd rather not be at the mercy of a single port/cable. But yes, the battery is awesome and don't have any issues with that. I just like having options in case of an "emergency." I don't want to have to choose between taking a call or charging my phone.
Any update
any update on this?
I just bought the phone and I need to use the headphone adapter as well as a midi keyboard, if that's not possible its going back - bluetooth audio is not an option, there is a delay.

How convenient! You knew that the phone has no 3.5mm port and that there is no official adapter and yet you ordered it and will return it for what?
Delay? Even a cheap BT headset does not cause any delay while listening to music or streaming video or casting to TV.

Yes I knew there was no headset and yes I will be returning it. And yes it is convenient since there is a hassle free return from Amazon. I needed a phone since mine broke so I bought the Le Pro 3, which seems to have pretty good performance but on the long run it will not help for what I need.
As far as a bluetooth headset, that is not an option since the output needs to be connected to a mixer or a DI etc and not to headphones, so if anyone knows if a usb type c hub will work, let me know... before the 30 days of the return period please! :laugh:

I thought I'd share an update for people that may need this:
I used a usb type-c to usb 3 adapter and plugged in a usb 3 hub (by Unitek). I plugged in the cheapest/smallest usb card that I had (Gigaware, bought it from Radioshack years ago) and the phone recognized it as a sound card right away (auto enabling CDLA), then I plugged in a midi keyboard on the usb hub and everything worked.

Have you tried either of those? Neither seems to have any reviews. All the ones I see on Amazon seem to have poor reviews. Surprising there isn't a good option for this kind of product yet.

Nope, didnt try em. It is weird, how much the market seems to be lagging with usb c.
I have bought this one. Today it has arrived. My first impression is good, it works fine.

I tried searching for "3.5 usb c braided" but nothing showed up as a splitter. The word "lightning" in your description sounds like an iPhone product.
I did try an item off of amazon but had to return it because only the audio worked. Ampere would show that it was connected but it would still show as discharging instead of charging. I hesitate to take a chance, even if it's only several dollars on something without a free return/shipping promise.

Except those are lighting adapters for iPhones, not ubc adapters.
Edit - The photo clearly shows a lightning adapter. In the description farther down the page it discusses using it for the iPhone, but in the "item specifics" it says USB C. Hmmmm.
Edit 2 - One of the reviews shows that it is USB C as you have said.

The second picture shows a LeEco phone... It's exactly the model I ordered, and it works with my x720.

I tried the Apple usb-c to 3.5m headphone jack cable and it didn't work, I read online someone saying that it didn't work with the 6T either. Before I buy another cable I am trying to figure out which work and why. My car connection is with a audio cable so I need to use it for that.
Any help or expertise appreciated.
This one works perfectly for me

I can't use direct links, so you'll have to play with the text below.
This one worked for me:
*amazon dot com* + /gp/product/B07PF8Z6LB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought but returned this one due to having a buzzing sound and low volume:
*amazon dot com* + /gp/product/B07P5T7QTF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The first link has "DAC" while the 2nd does not seem to have that feature.
I bought the 2nd because it said it worked for the Pixel 2 and because the usb c to 3.5mm adapter that came with the Pixel 2 worked in the OP7 Pro. Unfortunately, the product in the 2nd link didn't work in either device.
I hope that helps
If you don't care about the quality of the dac...you can just get the google branded one...it's cheaper than OP new pricing and it will probably work with any phones without a headphone jack.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a headphone jack + PD adapter that would work for the OP7P? Or am I stuck with buying just a USB C to 3.5mm adapter?
AH man what disappointment tried my USB C hub with HDMI and nothing quick google search and you need a MHL adaptor what a step back
do they even make USB C MHL adaptor adapters
takes me back to my note 3 - 4 days those adapter can't even keep phone charging while consuming power as far as I remember it was and issue back then they only charge in "USB charging" mode speed 500 ma or less
have they advance with USB C ??
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Other-Mobile-Devices/Samsung-Galaxy-A71-5g/td-p/1348322
I do see MHL to HDMI cables on Amazon. But I am not sure if any of them work. I am personally looking for one so I can use it in the car so my kids can watch what I mirror off my A71 5g.
If anyone comes across a cable that works, please let me know. TIA

You shouldn't be too surprised if you're looking for old technology and get flashbacks of your old devices, what do you expect? I remember cables was a thing on my S3..
Its 2020, not 2012, who uses wires when we can easily go wireless? Spend that money you're wanting to buy wires with on a cheap Chromecast if your TV doesn't already have it built in. You can get a used one for like under $10, $5 probably.. I can sell you my 1st gen CC, for $5 if you want..
Then look for the "cast" feature in settings and there you go. That let's you cast a video on your TV screen while you can be doing something totally different on your phone, like browsing the web or something. Now if you want to mirror your phone screen so the exact image appears on the TV, thats possible too..
This may not help the individual question, however, it may provide info for someone.
I have casted my Note 8 using a Chrome Cast and Roku. The Roku Ultra worked much better as there was no lag.
I also cast movies from my PC Windows 10 to my Smart TV via Web/Internet and that works great. Problem with Roku is that Roku does not support AVI format movies. So, I can play AVI movies from my Note 8 or PC to the TV.
Hi, can anyone recommend a model of USB C WIRED earphones that work with an A53, I am getting very confused as to which earphones work and which don't !
thank you !
Mike
I ordered these ones for my A53 back in July: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B3R3TTDP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They worked pretty well for a few months each (you get what you pay for). They're unavailable now, but really any USB-C headphones will work.
Amazon.com : usb c headphones wired
I recently splurged and bought the Galaxy Buds2 Pro, looks like they're about 40% off right now. Really good deal if you want to opt away from USB-C wired headphones: https://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-Gala...=&sprefix=gaalxy+buds+pro2,aps,96&sr=8-3&th=1
Thanks! I read something about they had to have a DAC built in to work with samsung usb c, but it's quite possible I got that wrong

This works excellently and supports the highest rate of FLAC audio files, so you won't need to worry about not being able to listen to certain files. Inexpensive yet well-built, too.
