  thanks StanD!
 
I have checked the compability on that site.. but on the first link they have only tested note 3 and not note 2... on the second link they said they have tried note 2 and note 3..so i have sent them email..cos for me its not working straight away..Native usb audio ..
 
 
ANDROID, Samsung galaxy note 2, is not rooted, do i have to do that ?
firmware version : 4.4.2.
 
I have only succedded to get sound with UAPP

IPHONE 4S..
 
I have connected it like on the 3 pic with android phone.. except otg changed with CCK, and it WORKS: ) Deezer works straight from the phone..great!!
but now i have to find out the way to get power to usb hub because it gets power through wall socket.
 
I have bought usb male to male cable and connected it with external battery 11200 mAh and everything works but i think this is too big portable system so i hope it will work like this :
 
 
 
... self powered USB hub also exist..     http://blog.jdslabs.com/?p=838  
   
"We’ve had success with Plugable’s USB 2.0 2-Port hub, but it’s worth mentioning that some customers have received Plugable hubs that do not work. Again, a powered hub is the best choice".)

 
 
 

Rooting a phone is not for the light hearted as some phones are easy to brick, some easy to recover softbricks and some can't be brought back at all. I haven't rooted an Android phone since my HTC Incredible or tablet since my Motorola Xoom, since the newer devices and versions of Android perform admirably. The previous versions of Android needed help and some overclocking.  The best place to look for rooting and installing custom ROMs is xda-developers.com. You will have to learn a bunch before embarking on that journey and find a ROM that suites your needs.
I have a Note 3 which supports native USB audio and in general performs rather well so I haven't considered rooting/ROMing it.
My Note 3 is able to run all of my DACs, without a powered USB Hub. My iPod Touch 5G, using a Lightning CCK cable can run with a FiiO E18 without a powered Hub but can't run my other DACs without the powered Hub.
I've had success using an OTG Y cable and a small USB Battery pack, sometimes referred to as a JuicePack.

  Yay, Android version of Onkyo HF Player was updated with support for Hi-Res Audio formats

Unlocker required for Hi-Res Audio formats

Thanks !
 
 
Onkyo HF Player is another music player app which includes its own USB audio soft/user space driver.
 

 

 
 
It can play and output native DSD (DoP); or it can convert DSD to "pure" PCM and output the PCM audio stream.
 
DSD file > Onkyo HF Player running on Galaxy Note 3 > PCM audio stream >> XMOS USB 384K/32bit DAC
 

 
 
It can play DXD music file and output DXD (i.e. 352.8kHz PCM) audio stream
 
DXD file > Onkyo HF Player running on Galaxy Note 3 > DXD audio stream >> XMOS USB 384K/32bit DAC
 

 
 
It can handle upsampling (44.1 => 88.2; 44.1 => 176.4; 48 => 96; 96 => 192).

44.1kHz file > Onkyo HF Player running on Galaxy Note 3 > 44.1kHz PCM audio stream >> XMOS USB 384K/32bit DAC
 

 
 
44.1kHz file > Onkyo HF Player with upsampling activated running on Galaxy Note 3 > 176.4kHz PCM audio stream >> XMOS USB 384K/32bit DAC
 

 
 
There is no hardware volume control for this V1.0.0 release.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with Stock Android 4.4.4 can play without 3rd party player apps like UAPP, Onkyo HF or HibyMusic with ALL apps with the iFi micro iDSD currently only with 16bit/48kHz tested. More testing will follow with HiRes music.

Good to know as I'm frustrated with my HTC One M8 not being able to play Tidal via a ifi micro idsd

Galaxy S5 Android 5.0 Lollipop, OTG cable, Dragonfly 1.2
 
The first time I tried Spotify, it worked, the fly glew up green for 44.1. The sound was actually better than with Android 4.4.
 
For several weeks now, the Android does not recognize the Dragonfly anymore and persists sending the sound either to the jack outlet or... the phone's speaker! Other USB OTG functions work still fine, like attaching a USB key as external storage. UAPP still works fine, thanks, but Spotify is also an important source of music to me.
 
Does anyone have an idea how I could cure my system?

I have a Galaxy Note 3 from Verizon running Android 4.4.4 and Onkyo HF Player works fine for me, I keep all of my music on the ext microSD card. I had to go into settings->Music Folders and select the extSdCard folder where I keep my music before it could find my music. Did you do the same?

See if you can get it going. Looks/sounds like a nice piece of software. Good luck.

It recognized only directories from main memory. Yeah it looks/sounds promising...

Did you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the Folders Selection screen and find "extSdCard?" I missed it the first time.

 

[m-i-c-k-e-y]

Yep! Settings 'extSdCard' remained checked but no music files appeared on main screen.
 
On main memory 'Emulated' it was recognized though..
 
With UAPP or Hiby, I have no problems however.

Bummer as it worked for me, you would probably like it. Did you try the "Sync now" button?
