Original usb-c to jack 3.5 does not work on FP4

Hi. I bought an original cable to connect my FP4 to a 3.5mm jack port. It does not work. Checked internet and al kinds of settings. No clue.

An old jack-jack cable and an adapter to usb-c works instantly. Perfect music. Volume variation.

Do I miss something?

I guess that applies to your use case as well. This USB-c to jack cable cant work this way it does not include any DAC and is meant to work the other way around on the XL Buds

I want to put the usb-c in the FP4. Play Spotify and connect the jack to my car. ( No bluetooth).

Do i get it right that the FP cable I bought only works the other way around. So jack plug in a music device and the usb-c into a speaker. I wasn’t aware of that

From at looking at the box it is a bit difficult to make a 100% sure statement. But I would agree with @yvmuell here that this looks very much like a cable meant for the other way round: jack to usb-c. This cable could definitely get a more clear description.

I would say the description of the cable is quite good, its marketed as jack cable for the xl buds to be used with devices having a headphone jack.

So @Hans69 its not meant for your use case. You need an adapter or cable with DAC

Yvmuel,

You’re right. The first time i experienced that a cable is one directional. At 55 at age, i learn every day

You’re right. Thanks.

Hi Hans, for this purpose I bought the usb-c to jack from Samsung, and works perfectly with my fp4.
