Thank you so much for the information DanBa! This thread is so great and I am hopefully soon gonna try pairing my Galaxy S3(4G) with Leckerton UHA-6 mkii!
I've tried searching this thread but couldn't find the info on the following but would it be correct that for the Galaxy S3 if :-
1) non-OTG cable is used with something like the VentureCraft Go-DAP X, it's USB Audio-enabled Android mode
- the VentureCraft Go-DAP X won't be draining or siphoning the battery off the Galaxy S3
2) OTG cable is used then it's USB Host-enabled Android mode
- the USB DAC/Amp will be draining or siphoning the battery off the Galaxy S3?
Apologies if this is a silly question.
According to wikipedia, is impossible to have a micro b to mini b usb cable.
Have a look:

If someone is able to give me a link where i can buy a cable micro b to mini a for the FiiOE07K i can test the Xperia J and some more.
I can't find it and
It's kinda like the 10th time i'm asking

To connect a Xperia J to a FiiO E07K USB DAC, you can use:
. a combination of two cables: a USB OTG adapter cable + a regular USB cable provided by the USB DAC manufacturer:
.. a USB OTG adapter cable: micro-A plug to standard-A receptacle USB cable (micro-A plug to be inserted into a Xperia J)

.. a regular USB cable: standard-A plug to mini-B plug USB cable (mini-B plug to be inserted into a FiiO EO7K)
or
. a single cable: micro-A plug to mini-B plug USB OTG cable.

The USB OTG cable should be tested with a simple USB peripheral like a USB mouse.

Yesterday we spoke about difficulties we’ve faced in getting the HiFi-M8 paired up with number of phones from Nokia and Samsung.
Recently, we’ve been looking closely at a number of phones from the Android family and have been noticing something rather disconcerting.
It would appear that a lot of phones don’t know how to handle a USB audio device (DAC) that announces itself as 192 kHz-capable. That is what HiFi-M8 does, because it supports everything all the way up to 192 on the USB bus.
You might be disappointed, the dac on the uha-6s mkii is really holding the amp section back. The dacs not horrible or anything but its more of an after thought than a serious feature.
The dac is using the flagship chip of cirrus logic and nick is working with on the implementation of the chip as his day job. I think how "bad" the dac is, is somewhat overblown. It is going to be better than the dac in most ipods, better then any on board laptop dac and certainly better then the dac in galaxy s3.
I know what you are trying to say though, and might agree that the dac is under performing in comparison with the amp. We'll see

DanBa, are there any counter-examples to the DACport's dilemma that they explain here...

"We have a strong suspicion that Android phones don’t know about higher sampling rates and therefore prefer to only work with those devices, which top out at 44.1/48 kHz."
May be, it’s true with the USB Audio implemented by Samsung.
But, it isn’t true with the USB Audio implemented by eXtream Software Development in the USB Audio Recorder PRO app.
My Samsung Galaxy S3, using the USB Audio Recorder PRO app, can transmit a 24/96 PCM stream to my 24/96-capable ODAC

Anyway, kudos to CEntrance for tackling the Android market!
After all, the Android market shows steady growth.
then how u explain that the e07k which is 96 khz capable is working with note 2 "us variant only" without usb audio recorder. i dunno why its not working with note 2 international T_T , i m really confused why US note 2 capable while international note 2 cant do it.... =.=.
