Hi,
Is it possible to connect Xperia to a Wireless USB Modem to access the internet????
I have a Reliance ZTE mg880 usb modem which I use for my laptop. Can I connect the same to my Xperia using a usb to miniusb cable to access the net???
Currently there is no 3G services in the place I live in... so just was looking for alternatives....
Regards,
IHWM
no, unfortunately, the mini usb of the Xperia does not provide power.
It's also why you cannot use USB mice and keyboards through the mini usb port.
greetings,
i did a lot of googling around, but only found more and more confusion. i understand that the xperia t has a microusb port that can be used for charging, connect usb devices with an otg cable (tested), and connect an external monitor/tv with an mhl adapter (haven't tested yet).
i've also come across a dock (sony calls it the 'tv dock') which is supposed to charge provide charging *and* allow a monitor to be connected - some say it has a usb port for connecting accessories, but according to the pictures and videos i've seen, it's clearly only meant for charging.
so.. since most people here are a lot more knowledgeable than me, my question is:
is there any accessory/cable/hack that allows me to connect an external monitor, a keyboard, *and* charge the phone at the same time?
thanks,
bamdad
p.s. this is my first post, so hi xda folks.. ^^
On Xperia Arc S, this is possible, because he have Hdmi port and micro USB port for charge.
Here in Xperia T, we have only one port, micro USB. I use mhl to Hdmi cable with USB cable to charge and make possible to see picture on TV for example, and I use Bluetooth keyboard with touchpad like mouse.
For me, this is all that I want, to make this feature to work.
Edit: Another possibility is to use screen mirroring function from phone with HDMI mirroring dongle to TV.

meh, too bad. i'm not really a fan of bt keyboards, because most of them run on batteries. i read somewhere that in *some* phones it's possible to get both usb and hdmi on the same connector (iirc it has something to do with it having more pins).
what do you mean by that 'mirroring function'?
Yes, the USB and Hdmi are posible on one cable. I have this one:

Edit: for mirroring like this for example :
HDMI CHROMECAST Dlna stream.

This is for free micro USB on the phone to charge it and plug your keyboard and mouse, with USB-Otg cable to the phone with USB hub or dock Dk10 for examples.

Hello all
Im new with this phone and I would like to know where can I find hdmi cable for this phone
Hi people, i tried to connect xperia z1 to samsung TV via USB cable that i got with phone, but TV does not recognize the phone. On my phone it says that phone is connected but nothing happens on TV.
any help?
Use compatible MHL cable which connect your phone micro usb to your tv:s hdmi.
Hi, guys!
Do you know if there's a way I can attach a USB Dongle into the port that's in the HDMI end of the Ready-For cable?
I mean, I have a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, but they will only connect to the dongle that came with them, I have a regular USB to USB-Type C converter, which works on the phone if connected directly to its port, but if I connect it to the HDMI, it doesn't, if there a way to make it work?
I hope I managed to explain myself.
The HDMI's USB is only for charging. And if your keyboard and mouse connect to a dongle they are wireless but not bluetooth, if they were then you would be able to directly connect them to the phone. The solution is to either to buy a USB C hub with HDMI and USB or buy bluetooth periferals.

That really makes a lot of sense. I hadn't thought about it that way.
Thank you very much.
