I didn't use an Android phone with the Mojo, I used the Onkyo DPX1 - which is a standalone, Android-based, DAP.

IF I used an Android phone as my phone, then I'd also use it with the Mojo.  But since I don't, and my iPhone works fine in that capacity, I'm not going to get one just to use as a dedicated transport (I have an AK120 for that, which can mount WAY more storage in far less space than any phone of any variety that I'm aware of).

I had multiple UAPP crashes in the three days I used it.  I doubt that would be the case in normal usage, as I wouldn't be playing around with settings and exploring so much.  Though even when I was just playing music it would sometimes crash the app and give me the "UAPP has stopped responding" prompt, if I skipped tracks too fast when streaming from TIDAL.  Either way, the DPX1 had too many issues to be viable anyway, so it's moot.

Many phones are a lot more stronger and faster than the Onkyo.

  How are you stacking Iphone and Mojo? Picture?

If I'm using the iPhone and Mojo together then they'll just be sitting on the table together.  If I'm on a plane and short on space, I'll just lay the iPhone on top of the Mojo.  I don't bind them together or anything ... they're never sitting in a pocket and being used together.
 
As often as not I'm using the Mojo with one of my laptops and, again, it just sits on the table next to that.

Sure, but if you're wanting to use the Onkyo with the Mojo then to do so without dealing with Android's native re-sampling you need something like UAPP.  And my short experience with that on the Onkyo yields some stability issues.  They're not terminal, but they are there.
 
It might be 100% stable on the S6 or S7, but it's not on the DPX1.

Happily I'm not cost-constrained.
 
Nikon make fantastic cameras - but they're targeted at a completely different set of use cases than Leica's mainstay cameras (the M system).  If you want a rangefinder, or easy access to, and use of, Leica's superlative lenses, then Nikon does you no good at any price.
 
And, if you care about size/weight when traveling (as I do - where every cubic inch and oz counts), then the Leica M system beats pretty much everything ... except on price.

Ah A fellow Leica M user.

Are you using a cable like this?

  Half the links in the 3rd post don't work for cables.

 
Not true.
 
Please make sure you allow the webpage to load fully before clicking on any of the links, or you'll just get thrown to the top of the page

 
 
 

  It seems there is a workaround right now to get around the CCK?

 
Yes, the workaround is for the cable-maker to cull a genuine MFI chip from a genuine Apple CCK, and then solder this into the audiophile cable, to make an all-in-one solution for the end-user.
 
 

  But for my trip the Camera Connection Kit should work find with the stock cable right?

 

Yes, that will definitely work 100% correctly.

It hasn't taken long for the greedy money-grabbers to notice there is money to be made on Mojo-iDevice cables.
 
Just did a new search on Taobao, and some of the cables are now very expensive indeed.
 
 
I'll add these cables to post #3 at some point, in the coming days. Some are a little ambiguous about whether or not they include CCK / MFI chip. I suspect all of these do, but anyone considering buying one would need to check first, or buy at their own risk!:

If there was a difference in sound quality with the iPhone -> Mojo vs. the DPX1 -> Mojo via UAPP then I couldn't discern it.
 
And if Android is what you want, for whatever reason - be it price, functionality, variety of devices, flexibility, that's wonderful.  Everyone's needs and desires of any device are different.  
 
No, you don't need a CCK for Android ... you use a USB OTG cable, which amounts to much the same thing - though I was using an OTG cable that didn't do the usual "dongle" thing ... just straight micro-to-micro USB connectors which was quite convenient.
 
UAPP hung for me several times, mostly when either navigating the local library or changing outputs.  Several of those occasions locked up the entire device.  Is it a big problem?  No.  But it's there.  It's a great player ... I bought it, I'd use it, but I'm not going to say it didn't have issues.
 
I'm not really interested in a general debate of iPhone vs. Android - buy what you want and enjoy it.  There are tradeoffs with all these devices.  But the fact remains, however, that Android Audio has numerous issues that are not present on the iPhone (it has it's own set of issues for sure).

Either phone system seems to be fine if used with Mojo from all reports of users here

It really is a case of choice

Really nice cables. But can anyone confirm they have the certified chip?

I don't want an Android phone (I develop for them, though much less than I used to) for myriad reasons.  For other's its a perfect choice, but it's not what I want.  It wouldn't be even if they were free.

UAPP is only needed at all with Android because the standard Android Audio stack is such a mess.  And, as good as UAPP is, it has some stability issues that all-things-being-equal, I'd rather not have to fuss with.

For audio usage Android causes as many problems as it solves.

I feel the same way. Android as a host is not up to par. O want to be able to stream via native apps. Uapp needs work, it crashes all the time. Tired of looking for the same music I haves saved on tidal. I love my v10 as a phone, not when it's stacked with a dac. I'm getting 6s+ for a host.

Guys, i need to know...

- I was to use my chord mojo with GALAXY S4 [ as transport ] ( but i broke ;( 
- Now i want to use some other phones just [ as transport ], my top 3 list...

> LG F60
> Lg G3 D855p
> Galaxy S5


[ my combo ]
- chord mojo
- some phone [ as transport ]
- shure se846
- ted silver litz


# So guys, what should i get to use [ as transport ] with my chord mojo?

Thanks so much!

It will work with either g3 or s5. I use mine with g3 and v10

I got it
 
So... do you can run TIDAL and Spotify on Android using the chord mojo?
Im think to get the Note 4 or give a try to use iphone 5c

The Mojo takes a digital signal via optical or coax or USB, if it is an acceptable digital signal it doesn't matter what it is from.
