One of our user sent mail to us, he told us that he discovered that the NOKIA N8 can output the usb digital music signal , and
 
can be decoded by our E7. below is the thread 
 
http://www.headphiles.org/index.php/topic,2657.30.html
 
 
We will do some test by ourself, but you can also have a try by yourself if you have below phone which support USB OTG
 
NOKIA C6-01, C3, C7-00, E7-00, X3, N8, N9. 
 
Of course you need a USB cable and a NOKIA USB CABLE (CA-157)
 
I think it is a good option to people who want best SQ on the way. and we may design a short usb cable which can 
 
connect NOKIA cell phone to any portable USB dac , like our E7.

can the E7 be connected directly to N8 without the intermediary of laptop?

as a digital transport yes =) E7 is compatible with N8 as DAC via the USB OTG...
but you still need a laptop or pc to tranfer your FLACS or MP3s to the N8 =)

i hope android-based phone will soon have this cool feature

We are consider to release a short USB cable for our user who want to use NOKIA as source to connect our E7, but seems few NOKIA user in here.

Would be great to test it with a cheaper device like the C3 Touch and Type or the X3 Touch and Type. It looks like they both have OTG capabilities. (Cable is compatible )
 
The C3 allows 32gb microsd card while the X3 allows 16gb only.
 
But I must admit that I do not dare to buy one of those to try. But if anyone got one under his hand, might be an idea to test with the E7

N8 has hdmi, should be able to do hirez audio through that

Have you tested it with the Samsung Galaxy S II? It also has USB On-The-Go.

I've been asking about this as well.  It seems Android won't output audio till releasing 4.0 if at all.

Tablets with android 3.1 should be able to output audio, since it has API Level 12. The Galaxy S2 support OTG, and since Gingerbread (2.3.3 and 2.3.4) API Level is 10, I think that they backported it, so, would be interesting to try.

I am thinking of buying a X3, it's not that expensive. If it would work with an external DAC/AMP it would be awesome. Even if it only outputs mp3/ogg. The app folderplay for symbian (I am using it on 5530) supports flac.

I just tried to X3 with an external DAC that worked with N8. The X3 did not work!
