Just wondering which MHL adapters everyone is using with there Vivid...just a FYI i bought this one...
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0380508
and it does not work with our phones. Just wanting to get a list of ones that for sure work and dont. Would save time for others later. Thanks
My job (I sell cellphones at Fry's Electronics) carries a similar item... not sure if it'll work. If I end up buying it then i'll confirm it here.
Item: http://www.frys.com/product/6716385?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
There are several on Amazon that work pretty well. You're better off sticking with an official HTC mhl adapter. I tried an mhl with a power pass through earlier this week and it was a no go. Its trial and error

I know. I would just like to make a list of known ones that work, to keep people from having to purchase multiple $15 adapters. It adds up fast
I bought the one from fry's a week or so ago. Works great.
I guess I'll let ya know after Christmas since it's all sold out since I put the link. Wasn't when I originally put it up. Oh well. maybe I'll spend the extra 10 to get the other one from fry's. The monoprice one was tested on evo 3d in the video I think.. can't rem for sure tho.

quality was decent, i didnt really do any extensive testing.. i downloaded a $.99 SD quality movie from the market and watched it, i wanted to make sure it worked. It was good enough to satisfy my needs. I will probably try one of the HD movies soon. Overall i am satisfied with it.

This is what I got, works flawlessly on the Vivid, quality is great.

So did you had chance to try to HD video? How did it trun out when you play the 1080p?
Sent from my HTC PH39100
I can only tell the playback of what I recorded with the phone's camera (1280x720) settings, the output is very clear and good quality.

Thanks Slimslim...yours is HTC original, it better work. lol
but hoping I don't have to end up spending that amount of money on an adapter if I don't have to.

Is there a trick to getting the HDMI output to work or is it just really picky about the adapters. I purchased an Accell MHL to HDMI at Fry's (link in beginning of thread) and I'm not seeing anything.

If it were around 30$ i would buy it. Streaming netflix from phone to TV is always nice when your on a trip (hotel).
i doubt it, anything HDMI even a darn 15 feet over priced cables cost like $100

I also found this on amazon UK for the same price. But idk weather its free shipping or not
but hey this looks too good to pass up
I saw that too but I don't think I want a dock that uses the micro usb, I think the risk of damaging the port is a worry, the micro usb port on my old HD2 is VERY dodgy after a couple of year of use, it also doesn't do any sort of audio output, which I know the Nexus 7 can do over usb, I am going to wait for one which uses the pogo pins and does audio out so I can just drop it in it to charge with no worry about the usb port and can plug it into my sound system.
Well I found one on amazon UK so maybe the other countries that have amazon will bring it in stock or ebay as well.

You might want check out the eBay ad again. They're saying they despatch from the UK but will post abroad.
Now there is a unique accessory; Smart dock. This dock not only charges and connects to PC via USB, but also supports HDMI output and has 3 USB extra ports for additional accessories like keyboards or mouse and an audio output as well.

I think the price will drop when it released, most companys list the price high before it get released and in mine country it's listed for 60$.
Think that will be normal price all around, since mine country are known for high price on everything and specially compared to US. Except if order direct from Samsung website and it will cost 99$. Since Samsung have a promote code for 50% and Im sure teh dock will cost around 45$ at store when it released.
The correct question is: Does it include Ubuntu?

I want a nice sized keyboard to type on,and I don't want a piece of junk either. The only thing that concerns me,is that apparently the web browsing shortcut key does not work on the Nexus due to it using Chrome and not Browser (was this ever fixed,btw?).
Is there any other quality keyboards out there,other than the Apple keyboard?

One thing that's always kept me going back to logitech has been their kickass return policy, usually no questions asked, and a lot of times your not even required to send in the broken/defective unit. Something to think about.

I had the Medial Link for about 10 days. Used it once on the first day and never used it again. Its great for looking at pictures, but when I was watching Youtube, I had audio sync (i.e. lag) issues. Returned it yesterday.
