Do you think this would work?

I found this item on Ebay - OTG Micro USB Host All In One Card Reader For Samsung S2 i9100 i9300 i9220 i9250
(search for item # 390452881730)
it seems like it should work assuming you have stickmount installed. Anyhow have an adapter like this?
I was going to get the regular cable - but thought this would have the sd card reader built into the cable and could be handy to only have to carry one cable (vs multiple cables/adapters)

It claims to be for the Galaxy S2/3 so it should work fine. It still needs a cable so I can't see where the advantage lies over an otg cable and usb stick card reader, that said it's cheap so go for it.

So hold on, this adapter would still need the otg cable? The description says it is an otg built in... not sure I follow you.

It doesn't need an otg cable it plugs right in to your phone/tablet. This is what I have been looking for for so long man thanks for finding it! I do photography and this is gonna be so awesome to sort photos from a shoot without having cables everywhere and movies on long flights. Double thanks for you!

i gotta get one of these to stuff in my camera bag for work, thanks for the idea !

When I said it needs a cable I meant it connects to the tablet by a cable, not an otg. I'm going by the images in the eBay auction which seem to show a micro usb socket on the back. If that's the case I can't really see the advantage, as I said ^

Looking at the images, one would think that if your N7 is in just about any case you wouldn't be able to connect this easily. I'll stick with a cable...

Micro USB to HDMI Adapter

The razr i has only got a micro usb port you probably know...
Somewhere i heard it would be possible via an adapter to get hdmi signal out of this port...
Can soneone guide me to one of those adapters or is one already shipped with the device?
Thanks

One is not shipped with the device, but if the USB does support HDMI out that would be fun to try for inclusion in other mods.

You'll need to know if the razr i is MHL compliant. If not you should not be able to have HMDI output on the microUSB.
If so, you'll just need a MHL adaptator, something like this:

EDIT: Cancelled.

Apparently it doesn't work on the M, so I'd be surprised if it worked on the i. It will be cool if it does, though.

it does haves a dock app do ,and somewhere in manual and info papers that comes with the phone, you can read several statements that point to a dock port

Hi Robert,
Do you own a PS3, XBox or Apple Tv????
The reason I ask is because if you download app called 'DoubleTwist' from google play store this consolidates all of your music and videos into one application instead of having seperate apps for each.... Once you have this downloaded and all your content on you can download there paid app called 'AirTwist' for double Twist.
once you have these 2 seetings you can wirelessly send your videos and music over any wifi network to a Playstation 3, Apple Tv or Xbox and no need to have cables lying round and probably costs the same if not less than buying the cable!
Hope this helps and if so please don't forget to press the Thanks Button on the left under my user name

Are you sure you bought the correct one?
Youll need the one for the galaxy s3 because it is 11pins i believe and there are mhl ones with 5 or 7 pins which is what most sell. So you might just need the 11pin adapter
so if you do buy it make sure its the galaxy s3 one as it is already 11 pin usb connector

You need a 5pin to 11 pin adapter to make what you have work, the adapter can be found for $3 shipped

The Samsung kit I got has the 5pin to 11pin adapter included but I have no signal on TV with or without the adapter . The Note does make a tone when I plug the adapter in. Do I have to enable something on the phone?? Thanks, Mike

Do you have your USB power connected to the MHL adapter while connected to the Note?
There's another MHL thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014441

Yup. Everything connected and just tried a different USB cable and also the 2amp Note wall charger. Giving up for tonite. Would appreciate more hints or advice-did look at some of those other posts. Thanks!

I got nothing to add. I just plug my Note into the MHL adapter, select my source on my TV and boom, I see my phone screen on the big screen. There's nothing to set on the phone AFAIK.

The resolution when using MHL is just 1920x1080 30Hz only, the screen quality is very bad, I'm disappointed

No, all stock for now..

Are you running a custom ROM?

http://www.amazon.com/Fosmon-Female...20&sr=8-16&keywords=mhl+adapter+galaxy+note+2
I bought this cable for my note2. it works great and the image out on my tv is pretty awesome. for this to work you just need hdmi to hdmi cable and your charger and baam it works. this product at times needs to be moved around so it can show on the tv but other then that it works and its cheap.

I have 1. It works but it is a little laggy for watching videos.

Yea you might have the wrong adapter. I have the Orealo C1 MHL Slim Pico Projector that i use with mine. It the projector came with two cables and I tested them both separately one was the HDMI and other was MHL. They have to be used together for the Samsung to have a video output. Not that its a bad thing because it extends the cable length. LOL. But check that you have the right one.

Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=151158410612 this work for me perfectly fine. Came in 2 Days work for my s4 and note 2 .

I only have 2 hdmi ports in my vizio tv with 2 hdmi cables. I'm thinking of getting the above. Would a female to female hdmi adapter take away from the quality of the image?
Does anyone have a link to an mhl adapter with a female port which works for you?
Thx!

USB OTG with charging?

Anyone had any luck with these cables? Specifically using an external DAC while still powering the phone. It's possible on my Nexus 7 with a custom kernel.

I am using one of these cables, but in a different manner, ie I am accessing a WD Passport 1TB external drive. (does not have ac in) Both my drive is powered AND my phone is charged. (tried using both a 10kmAh external battery pack as well is direct AC adapter.
Know it's not exactly the setup you are using, but as far as cables go, the phone seems to work well with this setup. YMMV

If I may ask, where did you get the cable? The only one I found so far is on Amazon and review there say that it will not charge the phone, just the external device.

On my Nexus, I did have to flash the right kernel. I'm guessing that will have to happen here too.

Why not make a cable that will charge and otg

Just an update. I ordered one of these http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=261170130579&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=87388073446
Should have it next week to test but based on the seller's description and testing on similar devices, sounds promising. I'll report back.

I have just bought it.
Initially USB hosting works, but I have no chance to charge at this time.
-----update-----
The female micro USB jack does not charge the phone like the one for Galaxy Tab.

Do you think we still need to add a 40.2k ohm resistor just in the galaxy s3 and will a stock kernel work?

I would like to add I managed to get an OTG + charging cable working for the Note 2 (N7100) using a cable made with these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953061
But... the 4.1.2 update stopped the USB from working on my Note 2, and someone else is reporting a similar problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38611244&postcount=42 . What happens is the Note 2 does detect it's using a dock, but the USB functionality doesn't work for some odd reason (even after a reboot).
I will reply again if it starts working in a future update.

Probably the same as the s3 - shorted pins = otg+no charging, resistor fools the phone into thinking it has an accessory/dock that can charge safely.

It sees that it's in a "dock" but nothing I plug in will work. It does charge though. If I short out the pins I get host mode, but no charging. This is with the Jedi rom, not stock.

MHL

Just a quick question.. will galaxy s3's mhl to hdmi cable work on our note2?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

My experience last week.
Bought one
Try it at home
returned it within the hour

Odp: MHL
Bought one of eBay and works perfectly well.

Yes, it works and works well.. Buy it from Samsung with a 50% off coupon and you get it for around $25 with shipping. I bought one from eBay ($10) and it was not from Samsung, even though it said it was and it did not work.

As I am discovering, though, take note of the copy protection the S3 employs. Connecting it to a recent, big-name TV? Probably fine. No-name, older, analog, or some foreign displays refuse to connect.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

Thanks for the response. As mhl to hdmi for note 2 cost a lot dearer here compared to the one for the s3... I was just thinkinv if theres any difference as Ive read confirmation that the two devices uses the same adapter
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

The only thing I know that is important in regards to the MHL adapter is that is must be a 11-pin and most on the market is a 5-pin which is why a lot of the adapters dont work

The connectors section of this Wiki Page says that older tvs will also require it to be powered.

I've just bought S3/Note 2 Samsung MHL adapter and it doesn't work without external power source when connected to the LCD monitor (the monitor is 4 years old). But maybe it's different story with new TVs or monitors.

yes.. that is exactly the ONLY different between MHL for S2 and S3/Note2
S2 uses 5-pin micro USB
S3/Note2 uses 11-pin micro USB
I bought OEM S2 MHL adapter.. and it comes with 11-pin converter. no prob at all.

I bought two at ebay from two diff sellers. Around $10 shipped from Hong Kong. Have been using them for over three months. Working fine and the material quality is not bad.

it works.
Sgs3 and note 2 has the same Microusb port.
I tried both in Samsung Galaxy Smart dock and it works flawlessly.

I hear u cannot conect both mhl and usb otg cables to smart dock with both working at the same time. Is that right? I wanna know this cause i want to use a rf (USB)wireless keyboard while having the phone mhl'd to my tv(used as a pc). Don't want to use BT keyboard. Any news on that?
