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


What is the X3 that you are trying to X3 to?

I wonder if this works with Nokia N900 aswell. They have different OS but USB on the go has been inplanted by some community member. Going to try it out!

I also confirm this. I can use my Nokia N8 as source for my E7+E9 using USB OTG. Very nice.
 
So, the N8 also works as an awesome HQ digital music source: just install a FLAC player and connect your favorite DAC into the USB port.

It works perfectly with my Nokia C7. Just wished that there was some sort of dedicated cable because it's boring with the nokia one plugged into the fiio one :p


Good news, the C7 is cheaper than the N8. Anyone tested the USB-to-go combined with an external DAC feature with the Nokia C6 or Nokia X6?

Hello ,
 
      I am from India. Today I accidentally bumped into this thread. I have bought Nokia E6 recently and after reading replies here I bought the OTG cable.
 
It works perfectly with E6.
 
I am using Purepiper DAC A1 with USB-S/Pdif converter  as my DAC and Marantz pm 6002 as amp. My speakers are DIY open baffles.
I hope this helps few more people like I got help from this thread.
 
Regards

No, it won't work as E11 is a pure amp with no DAC on it.

 
^ This.  Perhaps the E17.  Remember too, the unit being fed from USB2go has to provide it's own power as well.  Either in battery form or plugged in.  Something like the E10 would not work as it needs power from USB as well (if I recall correctly).

Has anyone tried the E17 with the N8? does it work?

The USB digital out  function is not limited to Nokia phones. Android ICS apparently has this functionality as well, but Google hasn't properly implemented it yet:http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24614&sort=-stars&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars

Apparently, the guys at cynogen mod managed to get it to work on the Nook. It's not common place now, but soon it will. I'm gonna get a FiiO E17, but I'm not too inclined to get cables from off alibaba or ebay, since I'm using them for hi-def audio. So I'd strongly suggest FiiO to make a USB 2.0 Micro-b male to Mini-b male adapter cables, maybe with 90 degree connectors, or perhaps one that's coiled. (YES, both ends at 90 degrees with a coiled cable. PERFECT.)

Just my SGD$0.02.
