Hi all
I'm new to this site and would like some help! I've been looking for a cheap but good Android tablet lately and I am going to be getting a Streak 7 WIFI only edition here in the next few days. But I have some questions before I get the tablet! I was hoping some of you on here could maybe answer them for me!
Do we know yet if and when Dell is going to release the 3.0 “Honeycomb” upgrade to the streak 7?
*** I contacted Dell and they said that yes they are working on the upgrade and the WIFI Only and 4G versions will be getting the upgrade but, is there a publicly known date of release?
What is a good case to protect the streak?
Is the connecter proprietary to Dell or is it a standard Mini or Micro USB?
Thanks
Tanner
The Dell Streak has it's own proprietary jack, there is no usb or mini usb jack.
Thank you! Is there a SD Card slot?

It's actually PDMI, not proprietary (though, since no one else seems to want to use this standard, it comes off as proprietary; wish more manufacturers would use this jack).

From what I have read about this mobile so far, it does not allow that. Atleast out of box. Devs might be able to "enable" it if the functionality is built-in but locked down.
Mentioned here as well. So best wait and see.
And by the way, welcome to xda-devs! Hope you like it here...
thanks ...

Any updates on this issue?
I would love to have my HD2 connected to TV using HDMI
i've read many articles about that but the only answer is NO, it isn't possible.
I don't think so, Tim.
I have a usb2.0->dvi adapter and I`m going to try it with my hd2 (android 2.2) within few days via micro usb 2 mini usb cable. But I`m pretty sure that this junk won`t work because of lack of drivers.
Nothing like that is going to work as of this moment. I have read that HTC is going to release a DLNA adapter for TVs to have access to streaming media, but it's not till around Feb of next year (and who knows what can happen between then and now). It seems it'll connect to the TV via HDMI cable and if you would rather not use it as a wireless streamer then you could just plug it in via cable (who knows how compatible it will all be though). So in a way it's closer than you think, but still far away and HTC could come up with some bogus excuse to not release it.
shame on htc...

TV Out AV Cable For HTC Touch HD2
100% Brand New
Description:-
An accessories that you need to view your phone files on a TV
Some phone models also support transfer of pictures, video clips and powerpoint presentations to the TV.
Compatibility list : HTC TOUCH HD2
The design of actual item may look slightly different from the picture, depending on each batch of stock
----------------------------
EDIT: For people stumbling across this thread, the joke is this will not now, not ever work with the HD2! Don't waste your time or money hoping otherwise
Where is the hardware on the HD2 ?
It looks like any TV-out cable, I have the same type on my Omnia Pro.
The question is : Can the HD2 use the video out ? I don't recall seeing it in hardware specification.
Edit: Anyway I've just bought one, it was cheap enough for a TV-out and if it doesn't get used with HD2, I can still use it with Omnia Pro
I don't get the joke.
I seriously doubt it will work. If, by some miracle it does work, let us know.
To be honest I doubt it will do anything, but I needed a TV-out cable anyway
You might want to give this thread a read before you try the cable. There's some registry changes & cabs that you might want to play around with to see if you can actually get tv out on the hd2. Probably wont work, but might as well try if you're getting the cable.

impossible!!! where is the cable plugged in?
This is a standard 3.5mm jack with stereo + video. You can plug it like you would plug the headset in
My old N900 could do this, right out of box, with a tv out (3.5 mm jack) Whyy cant the HD2?
Your OLD ??? N900 , if its that old ill be happy to take it off your hands lol

Because the N900 has a specific software (and hardware) unlike the HD2.
my nokia n96 had a cable that plugged into the audio slot and then the 3 coloured cable that go into tv, if i can find it ill test it and let u know
Why would you trust some eejit on eBay selling a cable saying it's compatible with your phone, over the countless threads on xda explaining why TV Out is not possible on the HD2.
Here's a hint, the part of the Snapdragon chipset that deals with TV out is not connected to anything. Unless you plan on soldering the connector into your 3.5mm jack yourself, it's never going to work.

Did you get, try the cable yet? I've read about this with the EVO but nothing specific with the HD2.
Ive got a cable that plugs into the HD2 via the usb...
it allows you to turn your HD2 into a hot-plate for cooking eggs and such.
you want one? i sell it to you for £4.99 +P&P
I always did want a gadget that could do everything, like schoolwork and make breakfast. This would definitely get me closer

Why does everyone have to be so negative. Will it work? according to reports probably not, but if someone is going to do the rest of us a favor and test it out say thank you and see if it works.

Yes, I've seen some descriptions that say it is, in fact a USB host.
It would be very cool if that is indeed the case. I only wonder what's taking Samsung so long to release a simple dongle?
+1 I want this NOW! Plan to buy a 1.8" 250GB Samsung HDD and fill with movies etc for going on holiday etc.

Mobile media center. Now if only I can charge with the usb host adapter at the same time.
Any idea when this is coming?
Really looking forward to it.
Awesome, just picked up a Galaxy Tab off Craigslist.
Question? Do you think we could use with say a Sprint 3G USB dongle?

But why not get a plan for it? What carrier is it?
Well it's a Sprint one. But I have a data card already and a Smartphone with a plan as well. Trying to see of I could use a dongle or somehow tether with Bluetooth. I may eventually get a pan with it.
I love it so far, very awesome in deed. Was my first experience with Android also. Beein using a Windows Treo Pro.

Well I meant a Sprint USB 3G dongle.
Has anyone tried anyhting like this?
Anyone got any news on this?
*bump* *bump*
Okay, the baove is mentioning the Hardware but i want to ask about the software since i couldn't recognize that there is anything in the setting related to enabling USB to GO
I dont think this will be available for the 7" first gen Galaxy tabs.
I use a Mogo mouse (Bluetooth) with my Tab - works fine. It charges in the expresscard slot in my laptop. I just ordered a USB-to-expresscard adapter...
My goal is to tap that Tab slot and make an adapter to power the expresscard adapter, thus enabling me to charge the Mogo mouse.

I don't know if I understood you right, but there's no power-out from GTS. Just a heads up!

If you try to connect a USB-dongel it would need drivers, and I don't think there is any android drivers for those.

included with the case.
Once you get the case, can you comment on how much bulk it adds? I've been seeing that case everywhere, but I'm concerned it'll pretty much negate the N7's slimness...
I will, I'm hoping it's not much myself

I JUST read that the nexus 7 does not have usb on the go aka USB HOST.
Which makes that memory card and host cable useless unless you find a rom that will enable it. CM9 coming for nexus 7? Hopefully!

Root + Stickmount.
what about one mobile power? also known as exteral battery charger/power bank. designed to charge cell phones and lots of usb devices. very handy and helpful when you are outdoor.
hope it helps~
The case you got seems to be the cheapest alternative for us Canadians. I've seen a few for Americans (through Amazon) that are less than $10. Sucks that we can get owned North of the border most of the time...
I recently purchased the HDTV Adapter Kit only to find out that it doesn't work. Is this a known issue with CM10.1 or do I possibly have a defective adapter?
Here's what I've been told.
The HDMI adapter works in Nook mode at this point in time, and it can be flaky.
Try turning it off, then plug in the adapter and make sure it's secure
If you're using Android it won't work.
are you talking about the nook branded mhl/hdmi adapter? it works fine for me on CM 10
You have to make sure it is really pushed in. I have had it look like it was in and not work really push it in flush.

Yes he is
This is another thread I started that has had no replies, so here goes.
"Hi guys,
Since N2A cards don't support either of these options, they said Android doesn't support the HDTV adapter, Bluetooth is flaky at best, and wait until the release of JB 4.3. OUCH!
Will side loading apps be a problem too, or will I be able to use the hardware if the app needs it, since the OS is still the same?
And isn't the HDTV adapter basically a driver issue in Android, which can be addressed with a update?
Any info would be great! "
That said, maybe it's because it's running off the sd card , and not rooted. I don't know.
As my HD+ is about 3 weeks old, I'm not sure if I want to void the warranty yet.
Let me know.
