Samsung Dock questions - Galaxy Tab Accessories

Can I use any HDMI cable with the dock? or do I need the Samsung one in particular?
When using tv out from the dock will mediahub movies look good on the tv or are they low resolution?
Is blockbuster any better or will they be the same resolution?
thanks!!

Any hdmi v1,3 cable will work, as long its
hdmi mini on one side and standard hdmi on the other. (hdmi A to hdmi C)

I don't think this will work. For an adapter, what you need is a type C male to type a female. The adapter you link to here is type c female to type a male.
The port on the dock is a type c female. So, if you want to use a standard HDMI cable, which is type A male on each end, you would need an adapter with a type A female and a type c male.

Ken above is absolutely correct.
Just ensure the cable is a v1.3 type C Male to type A Female.

thank you all!

Is there a usb type a male to usb type c female adapter?

Is there a usb type a male to usb type c female adapter? Please read that statement carefully basically I want a adapter to convert a computer usb type a 3.1 female port to a type c port that I could plug a standard type c cable of the nexus 5x into.
I am not interested in cable because usb type c cable is the future, if I buy usb cable might as well buy the true type c cable

Havent seen any - most people would prefer to just have the right cable (male usb-c to male usb-a) and not add an adapter even if using the cable that comes with the 5x.
1. amazon.com female-female
2. amazon.com female-female
3. amazon.com female-female
4. amazon.com female-female
5. amazon.com male micro - female USB-C

He wants to use the type C cable that comes with the phone.... and then an adpater to change it onto a male USB A. Not sure why he is limiting himself to that. I assume adapting to USB A male still makes the USB C cable default to the same slower charge speeds as a regular micro USB cable.

I want to transition to type C cable. So an adapter that turns a good old computer type a port into a type c port would be ideal.

I would post a link to the product you're looking for but this board won't let me. But the product you need is on Amazon and its ASIN is "B015W9ZZRQ". Go to Amazon and add "/gp/product/B015W9ZZRQ" to the end of the URL
(I've not tried it yet, but I have one on order)

Just a heads up on this; looks to be as the A port is device and C port is host. Backwards from what I'm guessing the OP wants. I've ran into this with a few cables and adapters and ended up only being able to charge my 5X/6P.
Note that any adapter that meets the OP's criteria will necessarily violate the USB specifications, as they explicitly require that any Type-C adapters be male, not female:
USB Type-C Cable and Connector Specification v1.1 said:
USB Type-C receptacle to USB legacy adapters are explicitly not defined or allowed. Such adapters would allow many invalid and potentially unsafe cable connections to be constructed by users.

If you can find the adapter you are looking for or any other adapter on Amazon from a seller called HQS Corp (the seller of the adapter listed by @EeZeEpEe) DON'T buy it. That seller SUCKS.

USB Type-C HDMI Adapter

I've found plenty of USB Type-C to HDMI adapters online, though wanted to check if anyone has given any of these a try?
Would anyone know if all HDMI / USB-C adapters should be compatible with the Huawei P9?
I use one of these...
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adapter-Fe...&qid=1463913348&sr=1-2&keywords=Aukey+adapter
There are cheaper ones around, but I think you should get one with a 56k ohm resistor... Something about laptops/phones being fried without one!
that's not for hdmi though?

My bad, misread the op as just a micro usb to type c adapter!
P9 doesn't have MHL so no, it won't work.

Sad to hear that.
Tip: buy adapter with D/A chip.
I tried the unit with many different USB audio adapters for laptop through USB C to A adapter cable and all worked.
This one works with all buttons (play/pause/call and volume)

AAwireless cable replacement

Good morning. Thank you for this site.
Wanting to replace original aawireless cable.
Is the cable USB 3.0 Type C into a USB Type A 2.0?
Thanks in advance. Mike.
I've had a tough time trying to replace my original cable, which works the best for me, it's just longer than I need in my car.
The cable type for you depends on your car, as it's USB C on the AAW end, and USB A for MOST cars on the other end. Some cars might be USB C on the other end as they are more recent.
The big issue is if it's a high quality data cable, not just a charging cable.
I'm on the lookout for a 30cm or 1 foot cable, USB C - USB A.

There is no such thing. It's either 3.1 or 2.0, the ends can't be different. Either should work.
Just buy a quality cable. Anker and Monoprice are well respected.

If you don't need an actual cable, I've been using one of these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0936PJC2J/ and it's been great.

Inexpensive ($5 shipped) USB C to HDMI adapter

I picked this $5 USB C to HDMI adapter for while I was traveling. I needed to be able to watch TV and charge at the same time.
All the functions work great on my 7t. I am running Linage OS, so YMMV if your kernel doesn't support USB C to HDMI/displayport.

So you're outputting your laptop through this. You are using the TV as a second monitor for your laptop and using another cord to charge your phone through this? you are not outputting anything from your phone to the TV, correct?

I have no idea where you got anything to do with a laptop from my post. I never mentioned a laptop anywhere.
Can you show your cable or other link why it is down​
