Hello. Can you use the phone to power both the headphones and the leds in them? Headphones: steelseries arctis 5

Connect it via the OTG cable and see if it works.

I do not have these headphones, and I would like to listen to music via a 3.5mm jack from my phone.

There is an adapter so it should work. Unless the electronics in the headphones have some built-in battery. The LEDs can work if you use this knob, then you must read the manual for a preamplifier.

There are no batteries in the headphones, and this knob is for changing the volume between chat and game. The manual says that the headphones are designed for mobile devices. The sound will come out, but I wonder if the leds will also light up, because nothing is written about it.
