Hi All,
Do anyone know how to fix "USB Error" issue when connecting HTC One M8 via USB for audio output ? I am on S. Team ROM (android 6.0.1) and getting "USB Error" message whenever I connect my HTC One M8 to my CAR USB port. I tried with enabling "Audio Source" for USB Configuration in Developer options as well, but still getting the same error message.

But my iPod Touch works perfectly when I connect it via USB to my CAR.

Any fix ?

Thanks

A lot of car stereo units are only compatible with iPhones and iPods. In part, this is laziness by the stereo manufacturers. There is simply too much diversity/fragmentation in the possible storage configurations of the various Android devices for them to handle (or bother with, at least).

You'll probably have better luck with Bluetooth, if you car stereo supports it.

Thanks for answering. Bluetooth works fine with my Ford Car. But I wanted to try out with USB audio output as I read some articles on internet that USB audio output can be superior than 3.5mm headphone output and bluetooth output.

In fact, the USB audio output had worked only once with WOLLA ROM for me with my car ( not sure how), after that it never worked. Now, I tried with S.ROM also and not working anymore. Since it worked at least once, I think it should work.
