I try to connect my phone to my samsung tv through usb port as hard drive and i only can see the external sd. I cant find internal. I am on rocket rom 10 with notecore. Please help, i dont have the samsung wireless lan adapter so the i cannot connect it through dlna.
It would be easier to get a MHL adaptor and just mirror the phone on your tv.
Ebay/amazon have a load available you shouldnt have to pay more than £10, I think mine was about 7 including p&p.

Have you tried to install "Multi Mount SD-Card" app from Play Store and in settings choose "Mount SD 1 & SD 2"? =)

Hi,
I have Samsung UA-32C5000 32" TV and I want to connect my Galaxy Mini to it because I want to watch some movies from my SD card, but unfortunately my TV doesn't recognize my phone, I know it is a driver problem. How to fix this? I can't find a solution by myself, maybe some of you can help?
Thanks.

I read a long time back that samsung phones can be connected to tv...and games can be played..with the video o/p being on tv. but have not tried it yet...
i'm not helping in anyway now
AFAIK,
it's need something like HDMI output from your handheld to TV (like samsung Galaxy SII), which is GT-S5570 doesn't, CMIIW.......

I don't see any HDMI port on Galaxy Mini, so i think it is not possible to view tv or play games or music on your tv. Unless you can connect via USB. But, that doesn't allow playing games. (You might be able to access your sdcard contents though, but not so sure!)
Usually I just plug in my USB flash drive to watch movies, but I don't have it around at the moment, so I was wondering if it's possible to read only from sdcard... (to use it like a USB flash drive)

Don't know about that (I probably don't have a Samsung TV and won't have it atleast for next 5-10 years, if any i would)... But, if there is USB port in your TV, then you might be able to play videos and songs in the flash disk. Why don't you try and see for yourself?
I connected my phone through USB cable but TV doesn't recognize it.
Sorry, works now!

*double facepalm* wonder the quality of 240*320 video on 2560*1600
Its awful
* super triple facepalm * Phone's screen resolution doesn't affect the movie's quality/resolutuion. lol. For example, my USB flash drive doesn't have display at all and I am watching 1080p movies from it.

My bad i thought u r talking about 320p or 480p movies
If u hav 1080p movies in ur flash drive then watch it on tv is a gud experience
hi,
i already got the mhl adapter for micro usb to hdmi, thats working fine,
but i there a solutuion to do this wireless.
i dont only want to stream videos or audio, i want to have the full homescreen streamed.
the reason is, i want to connect an external hdd via usb
thank you
easiest way is probably ipad2/iphone4s with apple TV2 on IOS5
check this out for android
http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/
which does the same thing except in place of Apple TV2, you need a PC there.
t for respond, but I need to connect via USB when using this method

I think DLNA is your only option there. You need a TV with dlna support.

but with dlna I only can stream movies or pictures or audio

Is the USB OTG implimentation a full implementation?
Does it just support mass storage devices on USB2, or can you do anything USB with it like attach a USB2 hub, and then attach a keyboard, mouse, vga adapater, ethernet adapter etc.
I realize that appropriate drivers would need to be available in the kernel for the specific devices, however the key questions is the low level support.
One of the frustrations with my Galaxy Note is that OTG only partially works, like for mass storage, however the OTG USB driver doesn't seem to support USB1.0 or 1.1, and I can't seem to compile working drivers for the ancillary devices mentioned above, so I was hoping the T had a better support.
All I know is I have used Xbox remote and mouse/kb ABD also Mass Storage

Hi guys thought I'd start the year with a first thread OMG. (My mum would be proud- yeah right)
ATTENTION:
The following tasks were performed on a stock rooted 4.2.1 nexus 7 16 GB
NO 1:
keyboard and mouse... They both work surprisingly well together with a curser that looks strangely like another os out there.
No 2:
Connecting USB powered devices like ipod s, phones and others and charging them. (Not as effectively but suitable for emergency Facebook pokes) addon: some devices u can use for mass storage see no 4
No 3:
USB gaming devices... This is sort of a ongoing project for most manufacturers as with 'different hardware comes different responsibilitys'
(Getting a bit too OTT must be that shot I just had) anyway nexus does support it on some games go to play store and dwn load tegrazone.
No 4:
USB mass storage: because nexus doesn't mount new hardware automatically u have to get a app that will for nexus: nexus media importer and (ROOT) stick mount. Not the only but ones I use and recommend
I add some more in a bit depends how hungover I am LOL
HAPPY NEW YEAR XDA *HICUP*

Stickmount is what I use, I even bought the pro vesion but it caused some double mount and unmount problems so Im just using the free vesion and no problems at all.

Guys, I have seen people quoting that the nexus doesn't mount external drives via otg automatically.. But when I tried with ES file explorer under the /mnt I can see the drive contents and the MX player can load the videos without any problem..
Then what is all about the drive not mounted automatically.. Can someone explain.. BTW, I use paranoid 2.9 ROM..

Many of the aftermarket ROMs in here have this function built in. It is not something that comes in a stock ROM, but it also does not require root to get it working. I use an OTG cable I got off eBay on my unrooted stock N7 with the Nexus Media Viewer app from the Play Store and it works just fine at reading several of my USB thumbdrives.
When I try to connect mass storage with otg, it won't recognize exfat.

Hi guys/gals
I'll get straight to the point
My girlfriends Note is not rooted it's completely stock
When I plug her phone into the tv via USB to watch a movie she has downloaded, the sd card does not show up. You can select USB drive but none of her folders appear at all.
I'm using the USB that came with the phone
When I plug my Galaxy s2 in all of my sd folders are shown
Does anybody have any advice at all please?
Thank you

Not sure about the folders not showing up..........but..........get a MHL cable and mirror the note on the TV. They are about a fiver. Cheap alternative to a smart TV aswell!
