Cable :3.5mm Male AUX Audio Plug Jack to USB 2.0 Female Adapter Cable by VIMVIP

The cable has a USB input and a 3.5 mm output

I have a nexus 5 that's rooted.I also have a otg cable that works with a mouse USB flash drive and keyboard.Is there any pro condenser microphone that works well with android?
[Hardware Hacking General] Renate:
I looked at that adapter and as far as I can tell from the non-English description it's a purely mechanical adapter for car stereos that use a 4 pole 3.5 mm jack on the front panel as a USB connection.
[Hardware Hacking General] nelsonw:
Is any way to re-route via software the Mic to right pins? SImpler: That the phone "ears" the right output?
[Hardware Hacking General] RandomClear:
Perhaps, I'm blind, but I do not see any schematics on how/where connect the capcitor...
[Hardware Hacking General] chris10241:
Can I just use a normal 1/4" female to 1/8" male adapter ?
[Hardware Hacking General] rin67630:
Hi Adam, Hi Renate,

you will probably get a better adapter from an TRRS video cable. These have better shielded wires than the headphones ones.

I need imperatively an audio input that has no level compression.

Did you care on that? don't more or less all phone mic circuitry compress the signal anyway?
[Hardware Hacking General] Pankz Jyoti:
How is it possible?
[Hardware Hacking General] d-signer:
Thank you for this! It was just what I was looking for!

I'm posting my experience doing this as it may help others who are also trying to do the same (and not know much about electronics, like me :) ).

I have an condenser microphone that has a USB plug (for power input) and 3.5mm Tip-Ring-Sleeve (TRS) jack (for signal output) on the end of the cable. When I plug the microphone into the computer to record and power the microphone, (or use a wall socket (via a 5v phone charging adapter) for power) there is noticeable hum in the recording. So I wanted to record and power the mic using my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 android smartphone because 1) powering it by the phone would remove A/C power hum, and 2) the recording process is much easier, as I use the phone to record video too. (Note: you can record by plugging the mic into a laptop running on battery to remove the hum, but using my phone was what I really wanted to record with as it is so much easier)

I opened up an old CD ROM drive and took out the audio headphone socket. I salvaged a few capacitors from an old circuit board lying around, and cut the 3.5mm jack plug off some broken headphones.

I then wired up the circuit as best I could from following 1) this post, 2) the two posts referred to in this post:a) https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2072612 and b) http://www.doityourselfgadgets.com/2014/09/how-to-connect-external-microphone-to.html

I did some testing on a breadboard (I tried adding a 1000 Ohm resistor, and moved the capacitor around the circuit, I used a 0.1 micro Farad capacitor, then changed to a 50micro Farad capacitor and noticed a benefit to the recording volume.)

What I called "testing" someone with electronics knowledge should read as "rolling dice" :) ...but this picture shows what I ended up with that worked for me (with the finished item after soldering and applying some heatshrink tubing to cover and insulate the adapter).

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diligentpig:
Hello everyone, I thought I've got a big problem here...

My nexus 4 originally crashed and stuck into a boot loop several days ago, and I flashed stock factory image(4.4.2), then it works again. After that, I imported my backup files into internal storage and using titanium backup restored my apps and data, unfortunately, crashed and boot loop again...So I flashed stock factory image again to find out what reason of this. After several restore from stock factory image, I found that my sms message and many mp3 files could lead to crash, after flash factory image, works fine, use it, reboot it ,fine, but after copy many mp3 files and restore my sms backup(about 2,000+ messages), reboot, stuck into boot loop... Now I try to flash stock image again, however, with no luck to boot my phone...

During my privious several times of flash stock image, it's always hard to boot the machine normally at the first time, I always try to wipe cache, factory reset in recovery even several times to manage to boot the machine normally.

This time when I flash stock image again, I just can't boot my nexus 4 anymore, even wipe cache, factory reset from recovery, whatever other tries...:crying:

Now I even tried several ways to flash stock image(4.4.2, which I used to managed boot up before):

1 Using the newest Nexus Root Toolkit: Boot into bootloader mode and click "Flash Stock+Unroot(soft bricked/boot loop)", everything says OK, however, it just can't boot and stuck in Google logo screen, even after I waited for 2 hours...

2 Using the flash-all.bat: Extract the .tgz image file into a folder which contains adb.exe and fastboot.exe, then execute flash-all.bat, everything reports OK, but just can't boot up, still stuck on Google screen.

3 Manually flash: Extract the .tgz and the .zip, put all files(including boot.zip, system.zip, recovery.zip etc) in one folder, flash bootloader and radio first, then "fastboot flash [partition] *.img", and everything says OK, just can't boot up and stuck on Google screen.

4 Manually flash using 3rd party recovery: Have tried to flash newest CWRP recovery and CMOD recovery separately first, then do manually flash as above.

I even do:

fastboot oem lock

fastboot oem unlock

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot erase system(or fastboot format system)

fastboot erase userdata(or fastboot format userdata)

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase recovery

fastboot erase cache(or fastboot format cache)

these commands before I try to do the four ways to restore factory image above, but nothing changed.

Now stuck on Google screen, what ever I wipe cache/factory reset how many times, it's just stucked... I even doubt if my flash memory was broken???

PELEASE HELP!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lopezk38:
Flash CWM, wipe the partitions there (But not /boot or /persist, those will hardbrick if you reboot after wiping although I don't think it will let you wipe them), flash the latest radio (.98), and then flash a 4.4 ROM.

If that doesn't work, wait for more responses from others, then try this as a last resort. I suggest that you wait a few days, this can be dangerous

http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/general/tutorial-how-to-unbrick-n4-t2347060

Follow carefully, and read multiple times before starting. Take it slow and don't panic if the process doesn't go as expected at 85% (Mine wouldn't reboot on its own for some reason, it kept erroring but it was fine and worked itself out)

It should put the phone on a complete clean slate for flashing
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diligentpig:
Thanks for your reply

Hi lopezk38,

Thanks for your reply! And I do as your instruction:flash newest CWM recovery, then factory rest, wipe cache, and under mouts menu format system/cache/data and firmware(but error), then flash a latest CyanogenMod image for nexus 4, with no luck, everything remains the same:(

However, I saw the link you provided to unbrick nexus 4, I'll read it carefully several times. At the same time, I'll wait for any other kind help that anyone can provide. If finally there is no other way to repair it, I'll go through with your link.

Thanks again for the tip!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] consolation:
It sounds like you have faulty nand block (s). Before no critical parts of the firmware got written to it, so it developed problems when you wrote data to it. Looks like this time you didn't get so lucky, or more failed. If it's under warranty I would RMA it; if it's not, I'm honestly not sure what your best option is. Maybe get one that has broken screen etc, then do a logic board transplant. Good luck.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diligentpig:
Hi, I've carefully read the link several times, and finally go through with it without any problems, and I could flash 4.2.2 stock images and do the 8gb to 16gb part to restore my phone to 16gb storage...However I found that I only can flash 4.2.2 image to make the phone boot up normally, with 4.3 or 4.4.2 image, it fails at boot up. Most important and sad part is, when the phone complete initial setup and install some software, it crash and can not boot again:crying: I've given several tries but the same result.

Finally, I made decision to sold it to buyer who needs only a good glass screen for replacement purpose... Farewell, my nexus4...

The loss of 4g (LTE) connectivity may be because of the kernel... Try returning the phone to stock and check whether your facing the problem.

This happened because you've flashed JB from the XTS while the STS doesn't have it.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] StephenMSmith:
I restored back to stock 4.3 and then applied the 4.4.2 update via OTA. I now find that I can't get rid of the lock screen. I set lock screen security to none, but I still have to slide to unlock after waking up. I didn't have to do this before. Is this something new in 4.4.2 or have I forgotten how to wake to the home screen directly?

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] StephenMSmith:
My KitKat Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 can skip the lockscreen when waking, so I don't think it's specific to KitKat.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] sharksfan7:
Were you running the stock 4.3 w/ Sense before with no lock screen? That's what I'm running and don't see any option to disable the lock screen completely. I think this lock screen is integrated into Sense and independent of JB or KK. Perhaps the ability to disable the lock screen is only available on pure Android, non-Sense ROMs or a custom Sense-based one.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] StephenMSmith:
Yeah, stock rooted 4.3. If you select None for security, and then click power off and back on, you still get a lock screen that requires slide up to get to the home screen?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] sharksfan7:
I figured it out. Go into Settings>Personalize. Under "Lock screen style", scroll through the options to "No lock screen". Not sure if it's any different on 4.4.2.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Solarenemy68:
There is no such setting on 4.4.2...
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] StephenMSmith:
Yep, so HTC must have removed this option in 4.2.2. Darn, I preferred going strilaightvto the home screen.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] seesomak:
Download the "No Lock" app from the play store. It's an easy fix.

That makes one more app running all the time eating your precious battery... Remember that unlike other phone the ONE's battery cannot be replaced. The more you charge it the sooner it will wear out. Lithium Ion batteries do have a limited number of times they can be recharged and when this one dies the phone dies with it.
