TV Out

Anyone know where to get the TV out cable?

Google 73H00274-00M
I believe that's the cable as it has the extra USB connector to charge the phone while it's outputting the video.

I think this si it. YOu may want to email the seller and confirm tho.. http://www.amazon.com/OEM-HTC-Out-Cable-ACT100/dp/B002OOZDSE

I think that cable is mini usb not micro

Correct that is mini not micro, cable will not work. But what about the combination of http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002OOZDSE/ref=oss_product and
http://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-Micro-Male-To-Mini-Female-Usb-Converter-Adapter-Cable-p-11269.html
I think $20 bucks is worth the try.

That won't work either... the adapters only push through the standard pins, not the special pins used by HTC for their TV out...

dammit
i need to get 6 of these cables....
anyone know where i can find out how to build my own?

one for each TV in the house
Seriously I need this... with the skyfire browser this will be the most useful cable ever. No more hooking up the laptop to watch last week's shows that I missed.

I have heard from wirefly that verizon wireless will give it out in a month..
But what I dont like is that there is no dedicated output port in incredible .. (ie its a matter of time when your phone will get discharged ).. So this thing will be useful only for quick preview on TV(like done for camera).

they could make a cable with an inline micro female to charge simultaneously

do not buy the ACT100 cable it does NOT work with the incredible. the slot is like the same as the HTC HD so it will not fit.

According to this video HTC explained that the TV-Out cable has an extra Micro USB port on it that allows the device to be charged while having the TV-Out cable connected as well. Really hope we get this cable in stores soon as I'd love to try this feature!

Correct you will be able to charge as its plugged in.

I just really hope that the dev who made the app to sync a Wii remote with Android comes up with the HTC fix. It would be so nice to have all of these game emulators on your phone that you can play with a Wii remote on your TV or anywhere there is an RCA connect.

Off-topic: There is a bluetooth controller that supposedly works with HTC Sense 2.1 devices I am considering purchasing, the MSI BGP100. I dont much care for it, but it supposedly works according to the dev website. It uses the app Gamepro on the market. Id much rather use the Zmote, but Ill probably just wait for Wiimote support on the Incredible.
On-topic: VZW warehouses dont even have them in stock. As in, they are still awaiting mass-production apparently. Fullfilment Inventory= 0. A few HTC events have had the cable being demoed but not for purchase. Good god how I long for one! Like many of you I have also scoured the interwebs for one with no success. Outside of bumping into a htc rep, looks like we might just have to hurry up and wait fellas.

Yea, just as everyone else i want one bad!!

It is not listed on their parts site yet either. Even though a lot of stuff there is back ordered.

Square credit card service

Does anyone know if the square app/device works with the NC? I have a suspicion that the hardware won't work right. Does it need a combined mic and headphone jack to work or will the headphone jack work?

I downloaded the app with the intention of trying it but it will not let me past the location settings page. It says it required to protect the seller and buyer by recording the location of each transaction.
With the device plugged into the headphone jack, I did not hear the unlock sound so if there was a way to spoof the GPS, then it may work.

If bt is unlocked would a bt GPS work?

Just installed the Square app. It loads OK and I was able to processes a transaction. (It didn't bother me for a location.) However, my square reader doesn't work. The app doesn't recognize that it is plugged in.

That was my experience as well. I realize that this is an old thread, but has anyone looked into this more deeply? I was hoping to use my NookColor as a POS terminal with my pen making business.

The card reader acts as a "microphone", but the Nook doesn't have those connections, only headphone, so the card reader is a no go on the Nook.

Rats!
Thanks for letting me know.

[Q] Does anyone know if the Captivate Dock works on the Focus?

My wife has a Captivate and as I hold it side by side with my Focus it looks like head phone and micro usb ports are in the exact same position. So this makes me wonder if this dock will work on the Focus??
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ECR-D981BEGSTA

This looks like it would. I found it for around 20 bucks online, maybe it is worth the try.
I'm not sure I would want mine in landscape mode, just because of all those incompatible screen layouts.

yes
By works if you mean does it charge your phone then the answer is yes. I dont think it does anything else. I haven't tried anything else though. Will check when I get home and report back.

Yeah I am wondering if it lines up and charges the phone.
Also, does this dock have the ability to connect to your PC via USB or is it hardwired with an AC adapter?

according to samsung, it is not *guaranteed* to work, and, to answer your question, it looks like there is a microusb slot on the back of it so you probably can connect it to the pc

I saw in the picture on Samsung's website that it looks like it has a micro usb slot, but in the Amazon review people were complaining that you could not connect it to a PC. Now that could be because they did not realize that they could use a micro usb cable instead of an AC adapter but i was not sure.
I guess for $30 it is not that big of a deal if it does not work for me they way I hope.
Thanks

Has anyone tried it yet?
It looks like the Captivate/Vibrant **** has the microUSB port in the right place, but not the Epic.
USB is USB, so as long as the physical location is correct, I can think of no reaso it wouldn't work.

Has anyone actually tried the Vibrant or Captivate dock yet to see if it fits

LOL I noticed that too

It doesn't "quite" work.
I bought one from eBay after noticing that they looked similar too. Once I tried it it was a mm or 2 off from fitting. I broke out the ol dremel after that and now it does work, but it won't without some moding.

Webtop with any HDMI?

Is it possible to hack ours to allow this?

maybe, give the developers time. But seriously, you can get a webtop for like 30$ now.

Not forking over $30 for something that is physically unnecessary. It basically "opens up the ability" to do something the phone can already do.

Yeah, it IS completely unnecessary. I'm thinking that someone should be able to get it working for free soon.

Well I thought I'd give it a stab in the dark. I copied Dockprovider.apk, Dockservice.apk, and Portalapp.apk from Here over to my system/app folder and immediately got system force closes. Rebooted and set permissions in Root Explorer, reboot again.
The only menu available when putting the Bionic into my HD Station is bedside and productivity modes. I have to copy the OEM files back and fix permissions to regain full use of HD Station and HDMI cable.
I'll keep working at it and see if I can modify the files to work on the Bionic, but don't count on anything as this will be learn-as-I-go lol. I sent a message to Fenny who made the post for the Atrix Webtop hack...we'll see what happens.

I just watched a YouTube video of a guy that got the USB host on the Atrix to work outside of webtop using 5V on the power rail..... I would assume some sort of trigger mechanism should be possible with the Bionic and webtop.... I might get one of the $30 webtops and canabolize it to see if i can figure out what in the device triggers webtop. Would be an alternative to modifying the menu to always allow webtop.....

Actually, I wonder if you activate the usb host and plug in hdmi if that will trigger webtop.... I will mess with it this weekend...

Completely doable and done it with car dock and standard dock....
Don't know if you've already seen this elsewhere. But if you either own the car dock or the standard dock (I have both, thanks to Costco) there are 4 screws on the back of the car dock (covered by rubber grommets) remove these rubber grommets and remove the screws, VERY carefully and pull the back cover, and you'll be greeted with a tiny PCB with a cable going to the micro USB connector. The PCB is only clipped in place, so remove gently from the dock body. Slide out the micro USB, connect it to your DB's micro USB slot and connect the HDMI as well and to a display of your choice. As soon as you do so, you will be prompted to select a profile. You will notice the webtop option is now available. Select it.....
The same applies to the standard dock. Remove the rubber feet, unscrew, unscrew PCB and cable management clip....plug in and done.....
Or spend $30 and get yourself a webtop adapter.
Btw, Apple's magic mouse does not work with DB even though you can pair it.

IBOLT MHL Adapters Not Working..A Sign of things to come ?

As IBOLT seems to be having a number of growing pains with the electronics for their new dock, I wonder if what problems we will see with their long delayed USB/Audio cable if they are unable to get their MHL cables to work outside of their Sales Office.

I didn't try mine yet. Will see if it works and post here

You would be a pioneer then and the first to make it work.

It is strange that it doesn't work. You would think it would have been tested before sending them out. Weird.

www.ibolt.co/products/mhl
I think their mhl adapter is only a 5 pin not an 11 pin because I don't see the gs3 or gn2 on their list of working devices.

could be but we have tried using the adapter they sent and followed the picture they posted but it still does not work. My guess is they never tested it on a USA GN2 as their photo shows a GS3 and we all assumed that it would work on the GN2.

emailed them this morning. Wonder what they are going to do. It would be nice to have a working MHL for the note 2, but then again, it was free so i can't complain too much! Besides, the car dock is great!

I agree Jon but it has to make you wonder if your hopes of a working USB/Audio cable will go up in smoke if they did not even properly test the MHL cables on the GN2 before they were sent out. And although they were free, they would have been better served to keep them in Utah if they were not going to work.

Free MHL cable does not work with GN2
Hi there,
I can also confirm that the free MHL cable that came with the car dock does not work with Galaxy Note 2. I tried different HDMI cables but no luck. After connecting the charger to the microUSB port of the cable the phone starts charging but no picture on the TV.

Mine also doesn't work. Tried different combos of chargers, usb cables, hdmi cables, connecting to tv and receiver.

Has anyone been successful using this MHL to HDMI adapter?

It apparently works if you are in the IBOLT office using a GS3 but I am not aware of ANYONE including the IBOLT Engineers that have made it work with the GN2. Does not give me much faith that we will ever see a working USB/Audio cable.

Hopefully I will ger a response from ny email this week. So far all is quiet.

Me too. Several people have bought USB Audio cables with a specific resistor pack and made them work. It looks like they all needed to load a different kernel. I am convinced there is a technical issue that requires a Samsung software mod.

Its cool, you just gotta drive your car to the iBOLT parking lot where the dock cable will then work. It's large enough for two cars to do figure 8's at the same time

iBOLT 11 Pin MHL Adapter for Samsung devices
Hello XDA Community! This is my first of probably many posts as we here at iBOLT try to keep information coming. First of all, you have to love technology. iBOLT, as most of you know, sometimes get caught in a situation where we produce a product that works with one release of a phone and may not with another release. For instance, the iBOLT MHL adapter to convert the Samsung 11 pin microUSB output for MHL to the 5 pin standard for MHL works for all International devices (S III & Note II) but doesn't for North American devices. When we tested and produced the adapter, it worked great. Now that we have sent out hundreds to our loyal iBOLT family, we are caught up in what most of us would call - Murphy's Law - we tried to do a good thing and send out a free gift to help compensate for the delay in shipping the xProDock for Samsung and it turns out not to work. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and hope that you will once again - HAVE PATIENCE as our engineers try to understand what the differences are between the International and North American Samsung devices. I'm sure that we will find a solution and we will do our best to keep you informed. Wow - first post and very long. I hope this helps answer some of the questions.......we will be sending out replacement adapters when they are available. Sorry for the long post......

I'm still trying to figure out what the correct resister resistance it to get otg and charging to work correctly. So far afaik no one has gotten it to work. We need a brave soul to pull apart the smart dock to see what it has.

First...Thank You! I was pretty sure that was the case and know it can be a bit embarrassing to have your customers find issues like this. (Learned that lesson more than once myself) Clearly checking this will be on your list of things to do before releasing the USB/Audio cable.
