Searched, didn't see this mentioned yet. From what I've read, it will have a Mini-HDMI instead of a full size HDMI port. Will the appropriate Mini to Full adapter / cable be provided with the dock? I'm expecting to have to source this extra part from somewhere like Monoprice, etc.
Anyone have it or know it's ETA / approx USD cost?
ive seen the dock and yes the dock has hdmi built into it but there was no price or location to purchase i think i seen it on the tmo site but its a new device and accessoies i dont think samsung started to make them yet so give it a few months before lookin for them
Most of the Galaxy Tab accessories are available here:

I've got one and yes it has a Mini HDMI port, and there are no cables added to the original samsung provided package, just the dock and some papers.
And, keep in mind that you need external power attached to the dock to get the HDMI output active. So, could be a good idea to get an extra power supply.

Nope, you can use the original GT supplied travel charger plug into the back of the Desktop Dock.
Anyone got a part number for the HDMI cable? It looks like an odd size mini HDMI...
I have a HDMI cable that works perfectly in a Samsung Galaxy S3 and the Note II, so I was certain there would be no problem using it on the Galaxy Camera, but it seems to be a proprietary port which is a fraction smaller than a micro USB.
I am a bit angry about this, as it means a (probably expensive) Samsung branded cable needs to be purchased. Considering how expensive the camera is, Samsung should have at least provided one.
The other problem is finding a retailer that sells one. I can't seem to locate one as yet.

Hi there, with regards to the HDMI port on the Samsung Galaxy Camera, I believe it is using a standard micro-HDMI sized connector. These ports have been in use on Android devices for a while now so you should be able to pick one up for a reasonable price rather easily. Here is an example of a cable that should work: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-HDMI-...=US_Video_Cables_Adapters&hash=item1e6125af08
Good luck in your hunt!

Thanks for the info, I guess I was so used to a phone's multi use Micro USB socket I forgot that the camera has a separate HDMI socket and that it's pretty much standard! Doh!
I shall now buy a cheap one off eBay.
Thanks again.
I bought on ebay an HDMI cable compatible with GS2 and Note, but with gCam does not work. Does anyone know tell me a compatible model, tried in person? Thanks

I know that Samsung HDMI cable are not compatible betwwen S2/Note and S3. I believe Note 2 and Galaxy Camera use same new format that S3 and it's probably why it doesn't work for you. but not 100% Sure.

Samsung uses 3 different types of connectors in their devices.
there's the regular mhl connector used in the note 1 and S2 which I think is a 6pin connector.
The note 2 and S3 use a Samsung mhl connector which has 11 pins and also allows you to use usb for sync/data transfer while outputting video.
and there's the regular old standard micro sized HDMI port which is used in the galaxy camera.
It's a tiny little port next to the battery, which requires a $0.50 adapter plug to get a full sized HDMI cable plugged in, or you can just use a cable with HDMI micro on one end and full sized HDMI on the other.

Hi team,
I just bought an HDMI cable to connect by phone to the TV. The problem is that the cable just wont fit in to Note1. However, it works perfectly fine with Note 2.
I can use the same charger to charge my Note 1 and Note 2. But the HDMI cable port just wont fit inside Note 1 as if its not meant for it. I tried to push it but it refuses to connect.
AFAIK, HDMI cables are universal and can be used on any phones which supports this feature. I may be wrong.
Any ideas what is causing this issue?

Don't know how it looks on Note 2, but all Note 1 has is USB port into which fits only USB.
Sending screen to other devices is done with MHL converter, which has USB plug which goes to Note, USB port for external power and HDMI port for connecting to TV. I'm sure more info can be found in accessories forum.
PS. I have a vague feeling that questions should generally be posted in Q&A forum...

The man is bang on, there's no hdmi port on any phone AFAIK... Mhl ports vary pins on generation of phone, so the note2 matches the s3 and I think the s2 matches the note, but it usually states on the product page which models they fit.

Hi there, It looks like a Y shaped cable. One end goes into the phone (charger port) and on the other side, there are 2 wires (ports), one goes into the HDMI port on the TV and the other goes into the USB port on the TV. The USB port does the job of charging the phone simultaneously while the HDMI does the job of extending the screen from phone to TV. There is no MHL adapter. The cable does all the job.
On the package, it says for Galaxy S3 so I guess it will work only with S3 and Note 2. I need to buy one more which is compatible with S2 and Note1.
My only question is that since the charging port on Note1 and Note2 is similar, how come there is still a compatibility issue with Note1? I was under the impression that the cable/port would be standard for these Samsung android phones and if it fits into Note2, then why note on Note1?
That's called an mhl adapter. The port in the phone is micro usb, so the signal is converted to hdmi.

Hello gyus
I recently found a Samsung Galaxy S2 plus but isnt working I cant turn it on but when i contact the charger it wakes up for a moment and dies again :crying:
What can be the reasons ?
Sounds like you should put it back in the trash where you found it.
Bad usb connector, probably. You could try an external charger to charge the battery.

First of all, this forum is for discussing the Gear 1 (SM-V700) smartwatch and not about the Galaxy S2 !
Secondly, have you tried using an original charger and USB cable ? Not all chargers work correctly and same for USB cables.
Or you could try, like said already, to charge the battery with an external charger.
Or you can try another battery, maybe yours is defective.
Or..
Or..
Or..
There is so much you can try, but you didn't mention at all what you have tried already.
Good luck
I'm in agreement with speedme about posting in the wrong place.... However, lol, I'm an s2 owner and have had a similar problem. Trying getting a pin and cleaning out all the fluff from the charge port, then bend the charge connector very gently towards the screen.
hi i recently bought Samsung galaxy s4 active.. it miss usb port cover.. is it still water prof or may i replace it?
also the phone takes 3 hours to charge with any kind of charger.. any ideas? thanks
