Adaptor to get a full charge from 3rd party chargers

Got this from the German Amazon site. 5 days shipping to UK.
http://www.amazon.de/gp/aw/d/B004IK...753396-0643611?redirect=true&ref_=oss_product
Works with a 2 amp charger I have, no not charging symbol.
Will test later with laptop and Mac usb

Wait, so finding a 2 amp 3rd party charger isn't enough?

No, there is some circuitry in a branded Samsung Tab charger that tells the tab to pull down the full charge. A third party charger will work but very slowly and the tab shows a not charging symbol in the menu bar. This little adaptor in my first post fools the tab into thinking it is connected to an official charger.

Don't know. The package came in a jiffy bag with just the invoice and no other packaging so it's hard to do any detective work by manufacturer or product code.

I ordered a couple from the Amazon DE website a lot cheaper than Amazon UK, if you order more than one, even though you have to pay post and packing.
Nice find i just hope they work.
I don't read German so it was fun placing the order

Wish I'd bought two at the time. Now I have to pay another lot of postage.
It's charging now from my laptop USB. 5% in 10 mins so much faster than normal.

I have a couple of these data/charge cable on order, they seem to get a good review, they are cheap at only £1.60 each.
They take about 10-15 days to deliver, so dont buy if your in a hurry.

I bought a couple of 3rd party cables too. They seem identical to the original, minus the Samsung logo. You'll still need an adaptor like in my first post of you want to charge fast from usb or 3rd party chargers.

I dont want to go modding chargers, some are not easy to get into, also some device might not like the mod, it`s easier just plug in an usb adaptor , also+ , I am definitely not going to mod the ports on my notebook , when the usb adaptor work on your notebook too.

dunno with tabs, but i had an experience with blackberry which oftenly charge with 3rd party charger (for car) which caused ic charging damage. I had mili charger but haven't use it with tabs just because the original travel charger is so simple to carried out with

I received my usb/usb adaptor`s and they seem to work great with all my usb chargers and even with my notebook, though the data connection does not work.

There is no circuitry guys. Its a standard for USB charging where the data lines are shorted. I use my 1A HTC desire charger regularly and it works just fine. Just need to get a good charger.
What I'd like to see is something to let me charge and sync at the same time because often at work battery dies while I'm debugging.

Not Correct, I have been soldering the data lines together on my usb chargers for years to get my Sony mp3 to charge and non of these chargers will give me full charge mode, just trickle, now the usb/usb adaptor works great.

Have to agree here! I've several HTC USB chargers, and not one of them will do more than trickle charge my Tab unless I use one of these adaptors.

I'm sorry I don't keep it. But there are so many sellers there and check their reputation before you choose one
sent from my Note2

I think that the Note 2 requires an 11 pin adapter and it runs about 35 bucks. I bought a 5 pin mhl adapter on amazon for 12 dollars then bought the 5 pin to 11 pin adapter from Newegg for 9 bucks. So I spent 21 bucks for a working mhl.

I bought one like this. Should be here tomorrow, will let you know how it works. Thought I'd try this cause I hate those little box things, my USB never stays snug in it.

So I have messed around with this for about an hour playing games and just playing on the phone. It works fine and is nice and snug. I even have it hooked up to a 20 foot HDMI cable via a female to female HDMI adapter.

The camera app works with mine, mirrored it on the TV. I didn't think it would since it don't remember it working with my note 1.

eh really? Wow, i have been holding my self back from buying since i don't think it'll work. Thanks. What rom are you using? and are you using the official MHL adapter (from Samsung)?

I have official MHL with stock unrooted. Seems to work fine, but it doesn't seem to want to do 1080p, so it does 1080i. I hear 1080p works, but it is choppy.

Galaxy Note 2 definitely requires an 11-pin MHL adapter, or an 11-pin adapter for a regular 5-pin MHL adapter.

Cheap 11 pin MHL on amazon for $10

I was looking for a cheap 11 pin since the genuine one wasnt worth for how little I plan to use it and I took a shot at this one after seeing some good reviews with s3 users.
since i am new user I cant post links. goto amazon and search for "Skque Micro USB to HDMI 11-Pin MHL Adapter for Samsung Galaxy S3 SIII i9300 i9308 i939". it should be $5 with $4 shipping
It arrived today and worked right out of the box with my note 2. no jiggling cables and no interference. Who know how it work in the long run but i doubt i will use this more then a few times so, its def worth my $10.
good luck

Thanks for the link!

Thanks! Ordered one! Also got the USB OTG cable for like 80 cents!

Will this charge my note 2 while using it?

it need to be plugged in to power supply to be usable so yes. theres a plug on the side of the adapter to connect it to the power

Mines finally came in the mail hooked it up and doesnt work idk if i got a reject plug it in and it charges but no picture on the tv
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

wow!
Just got mine in the mail little over an hour ago. Took 1 week to arrive via USPS. Works fine, lags? or refreshes? every now and then. But for $30+ cheaper than the one I was going to order from Samsung, who cares. Netflix, Youtube, and browser work fine. Time Warner app and HBOGO don't support HDMI yet. Video games work great with minimal lag. NFS Most Wanted is AWSOME!!!, as good as any console. Next I'm getting the HDMI to VGA for my monitor, a bluetooth keyboard/touchpad combo and this: http://www.amazon.com/GOgroove-Sona...54979999&sr=8-2&keywords=tablet+charging+dock
Maybe I'll post pics or video once everything is set up. I think my lonely laptop is getting jealous.

How well does this one charge when you plug it into the stock charger?
I ordered the one on amazon labeled "Skiva MHL Micro USB to male HDMI cable (6.5 feet) for Samsung Galaxy S3 (SIII LTE i9300 i535) and Samsung Note 2 Smarphones (HD-X3)". It's complete junk. Even when I connected it to the stock charger it would still slowly lose charge with the screen on the lowest setting. I guess the way that cable is setup it limits it to 500ma. It also randomly disconnects every minute or so I'm going to send it back on Monday.
I'm tempted to just suck it up and just buy the OEM cable from Samsung.

Which Monoprice one did you get? They seem to have 2 of the MHL items (and I can't find their 11 to 5 pin adapter at all).
Their MHL Item Numbers are 8675 and 9291.
EDIT: There is a link to the 11 to 5 pin adapter on the page for one of the MHL items, but it takes you to the home page. The item ID embedded in the web link appears to be 9716. Searching for that Item ID doesn't work either.

I did read that if you want to unplug the tablet, you should turn off the TV first then put the tablet to sleep or else you might corrupt the storage on the N10. Can't find the link right now though.

Did this cable work okay for you?
Died it need to be any specific cable for the N10? I don't want to damage the port with an incorrect cable.
Will any of the mini to HDMI cables on eBay work?

The question is... do all of you people who are reporting success with your HDMI cable actually have audio playback too? Could of sworn I recall seeing a good bit of people reporting video working, but not audio.

Yes/no. On one television my hdmi has no sound and on another it does. If I use my son's cable the sound work on both set's but not on his. I've read it is the combination. It's hit and miss with particular cables. But I have been sending the sound to the stereo with blue tooth, so I don't use it anyhow.
I read the original post and was going to recommend purchasing locally so it could be exchanged if you ran into this situation.
I also like the idea of purchasing a short conversion cable to attach any hdmi! Great idea!

This is a panasonic issue. Not a cable issue from what I can tell. I have 2 cables (Dynex and Motorola) Both work the exact same. Fine on my Sony, no sound on Panny.

when you buy a regular hdmi cable you need to look for the version of the protocol that the cable supports (for features) and for gold connectors, with this small connector cables are there other considerations?

Just got a Fosmon Micro HDMI to HDMI (M/M) High-Speed Cable with Ethernet and Gold-Plated Connectors for Asus Transformer TF300 Prime - (6FT)
Video works, but audio doesn't work on my TV (some older VIERA TV). Judging by that Panasonic note mentioned earlier in the thread, that might explain the lack of audio :/
In any case, it's a very nice cable It's out of stock on Newegg currently though, but I paid like $3 for it.

I got a 5m on eBay in the end. It only came to £6.50 and video and audio work great!

It is microHDMI. I bought this one from Monoprice for $7.50 and it outputs both audio and video just fine.

So Mini would be a different one then?
Alright, are there USB to HDMI cables available? Does that do everything, any benefits?

You need a micro hdmi cable for your nexus 10... There are micro Usb to hdmi cables but they are for phones/tabs that use MHL... The nexus 10 has a dedicated hdmi port

Ordered one of these. I tried another cable from another supplier and it was very flakey! Monoprice rocks!:good:

Hey guys.
So I bought one of these, only a 3 foot one, and it's absolutely wonderful.
Two questions though....
How long of a cable can I have before there becomes a streaming issue?
Also, how can I blank the tablet's screen while having it still continue to stream video content?
My device is rooted and I have Xposed framework installed.
Cheers.

WTF! This g-d [email protected] thing ruined my tablet. I installed it, then it went to screen off mode, which disabled my HDMI out too. So I couldn't see anything, so I turned it off and back on, and when it came back ... it was all reset to factory! everything is gone! Piece of crap

I have a micro HDMI I got from amazon and I use this app and works well after you learn how to set it up. Once you install you need to set your screen on regular settings to stay awake, I usually set it to 30 min, so the tablet won't turn the screen of while watching video, then I set the app in the settings to turn off screen with HDMI cable detection, then if you need to wake the screen after is off and you're watching something, it has a shake to wake feature, just shake the tab and will wake the screen up.
I have had it wake the screen up before while watching a vid but not often.
