What are /r/LGV60's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I switched all my devices to magnetic quick-connect chargers like the one linked below.

Basically eliminates wear and tear on the USB connector, and I can use the same cable on USB-C and Micro-USB devices. Would also work on Apple Lightning ports if I had any.

I did end up putting one of the "bigger" metal plates on the back of the Phone side of the Dual screen case

I've done it myself the first day the phone came out. What you want to use is a stepping drill bit. Something narrow like this: this

You have to apply very light pressure and take your time. These drill bits are great though for drilling into things like plexiglass without cracking them.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pdmdm.dmplay&amp;hl=en <<< this works on the LG V20 and others, but idk yet about the V60, its so worth it and easy to use, its so worth the $$$ big time ... no rooting necessary

Good question. There's an app called black screen https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.binarybox.blackscreen That displays a totally black screen, and since our phones is amoled, there's no light...

There is with 3rd party apps. I use Keep Screen Awake and it's awesome. Lots of additional settings, a button can be placed up top in the notification shade to toggle it on, I've used it many times over the last ~18 months. Screen burn will happen if you leave it on a static image all day, but if you just want to keep a recipe up for an hour while your hands are messy or something then this app is perfect for that.

Have you tried it on another Android phone?

mine came with NO Charger from a warranty upgrade through asurion.

I've been pretty exclusively using a ubio labs wireless charger or this PD charger that is the SHiiiiiiT, works for my laptop too and power bank

I personally have a pair of Audiotechnica M50X, use a pair of adapters to fool the DAC into high impedance mode since they function at 32ohm I believe. Process includes plugging headphone cable into a 80ohm "noise cancelling resistor", which then plugs into an L-adapter. Plug L-adapter into phone, remove resistor from between adapter and headphone cable without removing adapter, then finally plug headphone cable into adapter. Works flawlessly with an app I found which tells you what mode the DAC is in. I usually stop at about 65 volume, any more might risk hearing damage lol Not sure if this is good for the headphones in the long run, but it definitely improves the audio experience noticeably. Higher volumes, improved clarity, tighter bass. I always noticed immediately when I forget to use the adapter lol

>Lastly, there is not one success story to be found on reddit of transferring apps, data, settings from one phone to another via a transfer app.

LG actually has their own app called LG Mobile Switch that lets you transfer everything (apps, photos, texts, contacts, etc) from one phone (any brand) to your new LG. In fact, that's what I used when switching over to my V60. I dunno what carrier you have, but the clerk at the T-Mobile store I bought my V60 at recommended Mobile Switch to me. Took maybe an hour, but I was able to transfer everything from my old phone (coincidentally also an LG phone) with zero issues.

I was impressed how thorough it was, too. Instead of seeing what apps I have and telling the V60 to download those apps from the Play Store, it copied the APKs themselves, including stuff like Amazon App Store apps (I had a few that I bought on my Kindle Fire when I was younger) and even an app I made myself in high school (a stupid little soundboard app made using a Scratch-like basic app builder).

I use this for my runs. It fits the dual screen case. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08HW66WRW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1

Love the dual screen too. :)

If you need a good car Qi charger, this is a great device:

If you use the headphone jack, you can open it and reverse the side plates, but this lets you open the screen up and charge it while you drive letting you see it.

You need to get this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.usage.appbackuppro

Hit the search at the top and type 'keyboard', you should see LG Keyboard come up. Check the box to the right and then hit backup at the bottom.

Next, go to your phones internal memory with a file program like Solid Explorer and look for a folder called Mobi_Usage_AppBackup. In this folder will be the APK which you can then move to your Google drive for sharing.

someone else posted this, i have not tested it as I do not have my dual screen yet

This is awesome. Still a bit lost but it definitely helps. It's a lot of info to digest, which is what I was after, I guess. This is something I found. It's what got me questioning 5g compatibility. https://www.kimovil.com/en/where-to-buy-lg-v60-thinq-global-8gb-256gb

Yep, cable itself has very low impedance, perhaps less than 1 ohm. Here's also useful app that tells you in which mode you're in.

It has the option to add immersive mode to your quick settings. It requires ADB initially. Then you'll be able to hide both the status bar and the nav bar.

There may be other ways but I use total commander as my file manager. You can also see all installed apk's in it. That's what I used to pull off the fonts I had installed on my V20. Then I sideloaded the apk on my V60 with TC again.

I'm using this one in a Prius.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00585CLR2

Works very well, holds the phone securely. The only negative is that normally when it is set to hold the phone in dual screen mode, it won't hold it without the case.

I went with this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YM1N23Z/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_6ZH4J20BC5SVPEBBFP4S?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1

Wanted to be sure I had support at the hinge. Could hold the screens flat n not force an angle. Be able to charge

I got this and it works really well. I had a magnet holder previously but it was a nuisance dealing with the magnet. This works with both the regular phone and dual case. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RJNNDWQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_8KW4JKBTXNF84VSHC1X6?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1

I'm not sure which one you should get, I'm still deciding on one but I would say don't get this one

https://www.amazon.com/Wireless-Charger-Charging-Dashboard-Compatible/dp/B08LBJ8LDK/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&amp;keywords=samsung+fold+car+mount&amp;qid=1625027076&amp;sr=8-3

I tried this one and the locking mechanism broke on the smallest bump. It happened to me twice. So now I'm just looking for a simple mount that holds on to the phone from the top and bottom.

That is unexpected to hear, as OpenCamera works on my LG V-60 and the stock camera in regular (not in manual) mode.

I cannot recommend Filmic Pro highly enough. You can get the evaluator that tests your phone for compatibility here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.filmic.compatibilitytest

You can also purchase add-ons like a remote control for a second Android device, or a special toolkit that provides color controls and "log" filming. Buying everything is still cheap for the features you get.

Meanwhile, I hope you can still get Android system updates for the V-50. That might be what is needed, perhaps.

I've used them more than once they protect the screen very well

The Vmoda's are 32 Ohm. The amp is probably staying in low impedance mode. You can trick it into "aux" mode by removing the headphone cable from the headphones, plugging the cable into the phone first and then plug the headphone end in. Verify mode using: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apptrio.hi_fi_status&amp;hl=en_US&amp;gl=US&amp;referrer=utm_source%3Dgoogle%26utm_medium%3Dorganic%26utm_term%3Dhifi+status+app&amp;pcampaignid=APPU_1_GlgDYNXkFNi3tQaX-aGIBQ

I grabbed these off Amazon because they were cheap and I have two phones to cover. They fit just fine, but I really hate plastic film screen protectors. They grab every finger print and are hard to clean.

I also ordered some tempered glass protectors that were too thick to use with the dual screen (case can't close all the way) so I used them on the outer glass. I turned them upside down so the notch was less noticeable at the bottom. They don't fully cover the outer glass, but when centered, they don't look terrible. I have dropped my phone multiple times (just recently onto the pavement) and so far, it has survived. It's not an ideal solution, but it's worked so far.

I am curious what everyone else is using for screen protectors. I would really like something with an oleophobic coating that doesn't look so greasy like the plastic films always do.

Here is the three-pack of a similar or same item that works fantastically. I found having three is the perfect number (for the car and different rooms of the house).

The only way to know this would be to try it, but I'm going to go ahead and say no.

When you connect to AA through a head unit all the audio is directed over either Bluetooth or USB. Turn off Bluetooth and it defaults to USB, turn on Bluetooth and it will connect over Bluetooth instead of USB. Since the car sees AA as a "source" like it would the aux jack or the CD player you wouldn't be able to use AA and the DAC at the same time.

That being said I will definitely test this (I don't have a car with AA but there's an app called Headunit Reloaded that emulates AA on Android devices.) I recommend that you try this out yourself as your milage may vary but I will also update you on my findings.

i used this to disable all the at&t stuff and facebook,etc

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pdmdm.dmplay&amp;hl=en_US

I believe so. It has input binding. So theoretically if your controller is connected and your phone recognizes it, it should work. I'd have to try with my PS4 controller.

If it doesn't work natively I'm sure you could do a workaround with Octopus

I'm on Verizon too, the good news is that you can get themes from the Play Store, do a search for UX9.

For example: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lge.theme.markbencze.rain.ux.nine

Here is the one that was suggested to me on here. I think I would have preferred the one that hooks onto the air vents or something, because it doesn't actually fit well in my cup holders, but it does nicely hold the phone even with the dual screen folded out.

get an extension/adapter with a 90. Slim size and strain relief. Made in multiple lengths.

I bought this from amazon and I really like it for a stylus. It is also rechargeable. Works perfect with my v60 and not badly priced.

That link shows a pic of two phones inserted in the pouch. From the looks of it they seem to be an iPhone, either a 8, 8 plus, 7 or 7 plus since they have those big upper and lower bezels. So let's see if a V60 with dual attachments will fit using their dimensions.
the iPhone 7 is 7.1mm thick x 2 = 14.1mm.
the iPhone 7 Plus and 8 are 7.3mm thick x 2 = 14.6mm
the iPhone 8 plus is is 7.5mm thick x 2 = 15mm

The Dual Screen Attachment is 14.9mm thick (0.586") by 175.9mm (6.9") long, by 86mm (3.38") thick. So I would assume it would fit that case if the two phones in the picture were a iPhone 8 plus. If they are a iPhone 7 plus or 8, it might be tight. if the phones are a iPhone 7, I don't think there will be enough space for the V60 with dual screen attachment. But the only way to be absolutely sure is asking the manufacturer / seller to see if they can tell us what the internal dimensions of the pouch are. I left them a question. let's see if they reply in that amazon page.

But in searching for an answer to this topic, I came across this one on Amazon that would be big enough. It states inner dimensions to be 6.94" (176.3mm) long by 3.95" (100.3mm) wide by 0.67" (17mm) deep.
There are quite a few other ones in Amazon, just search "V60 extra large phone holster" and then go by the dimensions I posted above.

Thank you for that. I was on mobile and the Amazon app doesn't do direct linking. At least in my case I would almost exclusively be playing single player games and be okay with speakers it Bluetooth, but a very valid point to make. The Ipega 8167 is another example of a tablet compatible gamepad this one even includes a headphone adapter. I even included a link this time. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0817LQCZV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_T6YNEbGXD013N

Sadly you won't have Optimized charging with wireless, but after hours of researching once my own port died, and 2 failed attempts to completely fix it, I bought his one.

I bout a 2nd one recently, for both home desk and work desk.
Even with a dual screen case, it works well, I'd say 9 out of 10 for placement accuracy, when you put the phone on it.

This is a very good charger, and I haven't had to plug anything into my USB port for a long time.

I bought a 2 pack last week for cheap, but it won't work without me taking the case off of my V60 every time (even though I have an incredibly thin Casemate case on it). Same problem as you...phone is too tall and the charging coil doesn't line up well.

I recommend you the speck grip case for the LG V60 because it doesn't let dust get into your phone.

If youre using the headphone jack get an 80 ohm earphone impedance plug and an headphone plug extender. The impedance plug will put the V60 into high impedance and kick in the high gain mode greatly upping the sound volume and quality.

Ugh sorry for the Google search linkage.

I use the Anker PowerPad one , with the Anker Quick Charge 3 wall charger, link here with the Anker Quick Charge 3 wall charger link here.

It's a 10W charger and takes about 1-1.5 hours to go from around 20%-80%. Doesn't make the phone hot at all and has been working great so far. I'd avoid charging with anything over 10W for your main charger, as the higher 15W+ will degrade your battery more over time and may lead to the battery overheating. Better off taking the time to charge sllower than trying to charge in only an hour and risking overheating.

Bro I gotta give you props...nice work.
They got these that support higher wattage too, which is what Im ordering now. Thanks again.

https://www.amazon.com/Magnetic-Charging-Melonboy-Compatible-Samsung/dp/B09ZKCPBH4/ref=cm\_cr\_arp\_d\_product\_top?ie=UTF8

That is a very good point. Fast charging wirelessly is a bad idea. The V60 heats up pretty good. Stick with a 5W charger and charge overnight. It takes several hours, but the phone does not heat up at all. I use the Tylt VU (https://www.amazon.com/TYLT-Wireless-Charging-Compatible-Qi-Enabled/dp/B00DG8NVQI). It is 5W and I know it works with the V60 and through a Otterbox case.

Personally, I use a magnetic cable tip and insert on mine, specifically to avoid these kinds of issues. You leave the insert always installed on your device and then just magnetically attacked the cable with the adapter on it to charge. Works like a charm! Amazon linkage

I found XFolder a few months back and have been very happy with its user interface. Very easy to use!

I haven't tried some of its options yet, like network connectivity so can't speak to that but if you are just looking for an easy to use app to move files around (I use it to organize and move all my picture files!), it is great!

The most recent version has a "safe vault" to store sensitive files that can be keyed by your fingerprint. It's pretty cool!

Under settings it has a "share with your friends" option... below is what you get if you copy that:

You can move it to fit in to cover your camera exactly. It's customization is pretty decent.

so I had a similar situation with the v60 where I wanted to watch a movie on the dual screen but have the main screen be completely black. I used this app and it would just open a black screen. So theoretically you could have the black screen app on half of the display with an app on the right side. Otherwise you can't turn off half of the display just how you can't turn off the main display of the v60 without locking the phone.

I gotta ask though, why not just use the cover display if you want a smaller screen?

Mostly I will be storing videos for playback.

I was thinking about this one:

Yes it can be done two ways. One way is to get this adapter https://www.amazon.com/FAAEAL-Conductor-Impedance-Cancelling-Professional/dp/B07FMG8144?th=1&amp;psc=1 and connect headphones on the other side of it, then plug both into V60.

Better way would be to get some 3.5mm extender cable and this item. Then connect extender cable followed by adapter followed by headphones. Connect to V60, and unplug the adapter while keeping extender cable in the headphone jack. Then connect headphones to the extender.

Both ways will trigger the high impedance mode; second method will reduce power use

> What the hell is a cd tray option in relation to phone car mounts?

I have never used one myself, but I have seen them.

Example:

• https://www.amazon.com/Holder-Release-Installation-Compatible-iPhone13/dp/B09KZG2341/

Allows you to (ab)use the tray of the CD player in your car to attach something not to far from the air vents.

I prefer air vent-attached holders in many situations (especially summer, when AC helps to keep a charging phone cool), but they are not possible with all types of air vents. They are also not recommended for winter if you like very hot air heating your car.

Try Mcpro24fps: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lv.mcprotector.mcpro24fps

It can record unprocessed raw audio + it's overall the best manual video shooting app in the market which provides higher quality footages and more options and tweaks than other apps, including having access to all of lenses, highest possible resolutions and bitrates, LOG recording, tweaking options like noise reduction, and other stuff.

Adding a new comment because my earlier comment is 4 days old, but I tried my V60 in rugged case in this Qi-enabled holder yesterday and it is big enough, probably also with Dual Screen folded open (holding the phone part), something I have done more than once with my V50+Dual Screen.

Note I only saw this in European Amazon stores, Amazon US gave me an error when searching with asin=B09BZHT13R . But it may be sold under different brands.

I got these mainly because they were cheap and haven't had any issue with my sensor. The glass is kinda close to the edge of the screen which does bug me a bit, but it's not the end of the world for me.

Yootech 7.5W/10W/15W Wireless... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B082XDGK8J?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share This is what I use, it even works with the dual screen case on. Keep the charging port centered over the green symbol and you'll be fine.

Forget OtterBox, they haven't been making particularly good cases lately. The rubber breaks and fails after a year of use.

On Amazon the best pairing is the Spigen Rugged Armour and the Hatoshi Glass Screen Protector.

Will offer superior protection and will last the lifetime of your phone. No issues yet, I've only replaced the glass once (it comes in a pack of three).

try soft like G-mon It it under phone info you can select preferred net type and radio band change to "United states".

Also 5GMARK test it'll show you speed of modem, if service good or bad

&#x200B;

How is 5G coverage in Ohio and Mchg? Probably it's still bad, so you may want to change preferred net to LTE/wcdma, without 5G. So phone will only connect to LTE cells

Bamboo Pen and a Ringke pen holder

The current A12 update for the T-Mobile variant doesn't support Material You, however other variants that have recently received the A12 update do have it. As for how to change it, I'm not too sure myself, however if anyone with A12 besides V600TM users are willing to give this app a try, it would be interesting to know whether you can change the color to fit what you like.

I use this Loop which holds really well and comes in a pack of 3.

It all fits in a holster I found that holds everything and even though the holster has it's own pen loop it's exterior so I would worry about damage to the Bamboo.

Just one of the better launchers out there. Prefer it much more than LG's own launcher.

Lot of V60 owners here in the sub are using it, especially those who use phone-only (so no Dual Screen).

It seems that since A12, opening links in apps like YouTube Vanced or third party Reddit clients won't work anymore. Every YouTube or Reddit link I click will take me to the browser. Even if I make Vanced or Infinity (the Reddit app I use) as the default, any link I open won't bring me to those apps.

I found a solution to it recently but it'll require a few extra steps. Firstly, download Open Link With... on the Play Store. After you install the app, whenever you open a link and it takes you to the browser, find the sharing menu in the browser and share it to this app. It'll then ask you which app to open the link in, and after you choose it, it'll open in your app of choice. It does take a few extra steps as stated earlier, but until we have a better method of redirecting links to our apps automatically, this is the best option.

Some Lenovo styluses might not have tilt detection. If you're an actual serious artist for whatever reason, I wouldn't go for Lenovo. If you're just marking PDFs or getting a stylus for a DS emulator, then they're good. This is the one I bought.

I had less luck with the "Wacom - Bamboo Ink Smart Stylus for Windows Ink; 2nd Generation". It works both on my surface laptop, and on the V60, but didn't work as well as a pen. Sometimes ink would fail or fail on part of the screen, etc. Might have been just a faulty pen.

Solid explorer works for me but you can use whatever.

>What about QR codes? I know the camera does it, but it's pretty hidden...Lens? Something else? Dunno why it isn't up top like every other phone I've used...

You can just point the camera app at a QR code and it will scan it. Don't have to open any menus or do anything else.

When that doesn't work, I use this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.barcodescanner

Indeed :/

I have had issues with some USB c to HDMI hubs. The Amazon one I ordered which is 4k 60hz only works on one tv in my house. I bought a cheap 4k 30hz hub and it works on everything. Some older TV's may not play nice with 4k 60hz hubs.

It was a sale they had. It appears the skw has been either discontinued or just out of stock. The only one available is a used one from a clown wanting $125. If you Amazon search 512gb micro SD you should get results in the $60 range. I would stay with known brands and sellers. Here is another cheap one, but I prefer Samsung. So I would pay a bit more to get what I want.

My Amazon order history shows I've been through two packs of these:

(3 Pack) Supershieldz Designed... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083V68GMJ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

and two packs of these: (3-Packs) PULEN for LG V60 Thinq... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084NV9HGS?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

I've had my dual screen V60 for 26 months now and have broken nearly everyone of these, down to just one in my drawer if I recall. So that's about a broken protector every ~2.5 months, not sure I've noticed a great difference between the two brands myself.

Have served me well

And it's equally as slow when saving to internal storage. I did not format it inside the V60, it was coming from my V35.

Here's the SD card I'm using https://www.amazon.ca/Silicon-Power-Superior-microSDXC-MicroSD/dp/B07S5T7YR5/ref=sr_1_5

Internal storage is 128GB

It get's stuck at Personal Data around 45%

My preferred monitor is the airview monitor. But they're stupid expensive. I was lucky enough to get a deal on mine. The screen isn't the best quality but it has its own battery and uses Bluetooth for touch. It has its downsides but I like it because i get a tablet-like experience without dealing with wires.

Link

I also have a fangor miracast monitor (that i got before i found the airview). It has a much better screen, includes a battery but no touchscreen option.

Link but out of stock.

I keep on telling myself I'll make a video comparing them but I just never get around to it. I'm probably going to sell the fangor soon since it's mostly redundant at this point.

Here's something weird. It only supports touch through Bluetooth. Even if you plug in through the usb-c port, touch won't work. Honestly i think the price is outrageous for what you get. I would not pay this much. I got lucky when I found out on eBay for maybe 200 usd. It's much more reasonable at that price. The damn thing doesn't even have a battery indicator so it'll just turn off without warning lol.

And yeah their website can be outdated often. Sometimes I can contact support, sometimes I can't.

See if you have this monitor near you. Seems to be the same style but an updated model as the airview. Or just search "miracast portable monitor" on Amazon, eBay, etc.

It doesn't prompt you each time, but Open Link With... works great for setting up certain types of links to open in pps.

Disney+ used to be Widevine-sensitive back when it started (I was an early adopter when it got released in Netherlands, as the first European country, I tried different Chinese Android TV boxes), but it seems like they let that go and are now using another mechanism.

Amazon Prime also uses a different system. Widevine is not a factor for getting 4K content, but phone model is a factor. E.g. there have been issues with the G8X not getting fullHD, L1 or not.

The reason why I currently suspect Netflix is that I started using it quite recent on my V60 (around the suspected time of the L3 downgrade). And I had checked DRM info before I started using it. I did downloading using the app and also traveling between countries, and also have NordVPN installed (but not used with Netflix).

I have used an old APK of Netflix on my V20s, denying updates. All my V20s (1x stock Nougat and 3x stock Oreo) are still on L1. I used to watch Netflix on the V20s on a big 1440P monitor (through a hub with HDMI) and headphones on the QuadDAC.

But more recently an Xbox One S had my preference, due to nice 1440P upscaling it offers.

Hey our friend from Tbilisi, Georgia!

I don't use Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, Oculus or anything from Zuckerjerk myself, So I can't help you with hands-on experience.

The message writes about "embedded browser". I wonder why that is. Have you already tried making other browsers the default browser on your V60? E.g. use Brave, Firefox Focus or Avast Secure Browser rather than Chrome?

Also, in any of these browsers (including Chrome) have you tried selecting Desktop site from the ...-menu? This typically presents the website similar to what you can see on a Windows PC.

Also have you tried using a VPN? Be careful with free VPN apps, as they can contain malware or spyware. I was thinking more in the lines of NordVPN or recommended VPNs that offer a free trial period

It could be that something is blocking you on a network level in the connection between your V60 and the internet.

You can force it to high impedance mode by attaching a

3.5mm L shape extension

to a

80 ohm resistance adapter

plug both in the LG v20 without plugging in your SundaRA.

Then after both adapters are in, detach the 80 ohm resistance adapter leaving just the L shape afapter.

Finally plug in the Sundara to the 3.5mm L shape adapter.

Bingo high impedance mode

I learned this from a thread on a hiFi forum.

These came with the screen protector. Overall decent quality. Not sure if that is what you're looking for

I got this one. It was pretty easy to do.

Yup. There are beveled/radiused edges on every modern phone screen. I've experienced the 'plus' on a a few that I tried and the unadhered edges annoyed me. I've used the film protectors because they were edge to edge.

With my V60 I took a chance and bought these, and have been pretty happy with them. They aren't edge to edge but they stop before the:radius and are adhered all around the edge. You can feel the edge when using gestures but they're smooth and not a problem

I took this quest and got it done! :D

I wrote everything down because I have a short memory. Here goes.

How to completely get rid of the ugly widgets on home screen for the Demo phone .

I successfully removed the annoying widget on 3.21.22 using edb and fastboot. The best part is the navigation bar stays! I hate gesture.

Start edb

*Important

• copy and paste the commands on a clean text doc without any space before pasting it on adb!

First

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.lge.ldumanger

It should say success!

Second

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.lge.gallery.lduwidget

It should say success!

Reboot the phone in adb. Just type adb reboot (optional. I did it like the retail removal just to be safe)

As you can see, it's only useful for something with toslink out, like a TV. As far as interfacing with the V60 digitally there's no way that wouldn't involve additional conversion, completely obviating any benefit of using optical or the DAC in the V60. A little RCA to toslink converter box so you can use the above cable is about $20.

22 years ago when I bought the Sony (before MP3 player, alternative was a portable MP3 discman) it came with itunes-like software that would build the AAC library and transfer over usb. If you search, there are a variety of hacks to move certain files from a PC, and also to run the original software in compatibility mode. But aside from recording live performances, radio broadcasts, the thing was basically useless as a recorder--no way to burn to MD without going through Sony's software. If you want to try to play with this you'll need a mini USB cable, easy to find. It would also be much easier with an older XP PC if you have one.

To sum it all up, MD was the technology that made me never buy a Sony product again. I tried the ipod and later ipad and same thing--I will not buy any of these crippled devices that don't have accessible file systems.

The biggest thing was the mic jack made this a great device for live recording--there is no ability to digitally pull the resulting files back to the PC. And second to that, no optical out, just in.

BTW I'm assuming you're talking about a MD Walkman. The decks have more capabilities but if you snagged one for $1 you're lucky indeed. If nothing else you can resell it, they've held value on ebay, good luck.

> Would I need a converter even if I have DAC?

Any sound that you end up hearing from a digital source has gone through a DAC (digital-to-analog converter) by the time it reaches your ear. The V60's sound coming out of the 3.5mm has gone through its QuadDAC (if you have turned it on, not sure what is best in your case) and the minidisc will need to covert that analog signal back again to digital using it AD-converter.

Far from ideal, but I guess you want to transfer something to MD from a streaming source from an app on the V60?

> but want to use optical/3.5mm

That would be the analog 3.5mm output.

I have never come across any proven method or device where the music played from the V60 is channeled to an optical SPDIF/TOS-link port. Although it MAY (big may) be technically possible if you chain a USB-C hub with HDMI output (that also outputs digital sound over HDMI if you don't plug anything into the V60's 3.5mm) and a device with HDMI-in (and HDMI-out) and optical out. But even with such hardware there could be caveats related to DRM or sample frequency.

Keeping the entire chain digital is always preferred if sound fidelity is of concern. Also avoids issues like clipping (analog recording with too high input gain).
