Are you using a basic phone to USB cable? That won't work. You need an OTG cable, on the go cable. It looks like a normal micro to usb but it's not. Amazingly cheap fix.
USB compatability
Please be kind to this noob. I have searched and asked for months without much luck for an explanation other than " it probably wont work...
I bought a 2012 version of the Wyred for Sound DAC-2. This is my first DAC and all I could afford. My i ssue is i can run audio over usb from my old DELL laptop and all is well. I have a note 9 and BLU G8 phone. I can download an AP connect to the DAC and the phones instantly give a "connected to W4S DAC-2" a message but when I go to play a song i get a DAC not connected message. My first thought is the controller of the USB isnt capable of talking to the phones? i uses eXtreme usb music player and tried a samsung music ap. Ive tried different cables ect. Please enlighten me by telling me or referring me to where to find the answer. Thank you!
