Hi guys! Have anyone tried this setup? While connected to MHL adapter the charging is not enough and I want to connect mu magnetic charging cable at the same time with the mhl adapter. Is it safe?

Yes, work in this way. This was recommended to me here on XDA.
Thanks! Will try that later. I'm scared that this might overcharge our z1.

As far as I can tell the MHL doesn't charge the handset

It was not the case but some MHL have to be plugged in to charger to let HDMI working. He just want plug the phone under charging and use the MHL cable.

Hi, I I recently bought this adapter online so i don't have to carry two separate cables when I travel (one for tab, and other for phone).

This product works well as it allows you to charge your tab with a micro sd cable and standard tab wall charger or any charger with usb dongle. If you have any questions let me know, I but I highly recommend this to all tab users who also have phones that charge through micro usb.

What I want to try next is to plug my s2 otg cable into the adapter and get host mode.
If anyone can link me to the kernel that works with overcome let me know.

I have (2) different micro usb host cables for galaxy s 2 and I was thinking of trying to consolidate and use them here too but I don't know how to compile a kernel with host capabilities.
If someone where to be able to make one for me that will work with overcome I can test this.

May want to edit OP to reflect MicroUSB, not MicroSD - Might be helpful.

Got mine yesterday. Works Recomended!
I was gonna buy 1 but the description says "Computer + micro usb data cable can not charge. Please use the original wall adapter to charge with this cable!"
is it true that when you plug it in to a computer it will only do data but won't charge the battery?

If you want to use a computer or an usb wall charger you can buy a USB DC dongle and it will charge.
Ill link you to the one I have.

Interesting! What magic is making this happen? I thought usb was limited to 500ma draw before the computer starts complaining. Is this safe? I mean, it works, thats great but i'd love to know why/how?
No idea... but it charges for me. Slower than from the original USB wall charger but it will charge.

Nice! This is exactly what I was looking for, as I've repurposed my P1000 as a head unit and need to charge it in the car while it's in use, and didn't have any success hacking together a cable with resistors to do the trick.
what about file sync? i mean can it work like regular usb cable to connect tab2 to PC, for file managment and stuff?
it should be possible, since it's regular usb2.0 on the other side of the cable and micro-usb is just the same wiring but smaller...
so i noticed it doesn't charge from a PC's usb, and it will do if i use magical adapter mentioned in replies here, right?
The Question is = will it allow file management and charging at the same time if i use micro-usb and usb-charge adapter?
also found this: http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/592818965/for_Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_USB_Adapter.html
it only states that it charges over micro-usb, not sure if it can transfer data.
and this: http://www.sunsky-online.com/view/232254.htm
this states that it's for P1000 (dunno, do they have same connector?) and it doesn't clarify if it's for charging only or can transfer data
Could anyone tell me if this adapter works with N2?

It worked for me :good:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014441&page=3&highlight=mhl
The ones I got from them worked. Just make sure you get the 11pin to 5pin adapter. You'll need a good USB cable that doesn't have high resistance. Otherwise, there will be enough power use the MHL, but will drain the battery about 20% per hour if streaming media, such as Netflix. If using the cable that comes with the phone, it's about 1% per hour.

What i did is, removed EC21 cable from Sony dock Dk31; the only genuine solution it is if you want original cable
Check here how i removed it - http://www.xperiaguide.com/2013/10/...ging-dock-dk31-dk30-xperia-z1-xperia-z-ultra/

That line was quoted from the official dk31 guide from sony.
I guess usb port of pc will not give same charge as ac adapter. Ac adapter gives 1.5A so fast charge than usb port of pc.
So for fast charge use AC adapter only.
Took 2.30 hours via ec21 cable to charge my z1

I see strange USB behavior on mine. When I plug it in to the USB adapter in my car it does not charge. However, my other HTC phones do charge in my car
These micro USB ports put the power pins on the outside edges so they are subjected to most stress and usually pull loose first. So its not too unusual for the data to work but the charging to not work. If that's what's happening its likely that data will stop working too after a while...

Try it and see, but I don't think so....not enough power (Let alone not enough micro usb ports on the phone)
Do you know any adapters that would support it?

No, but some people have made some of their own. It may be possible to get the connections correct, I just think you will struggle for power. What are you planning in running un the OTG at the same time as a MHL connection
Something like Acer Extend... To use my phone as a terminal for Remote Desktop and ssh.

I was really disappointed that Sony's IM750 did not include this function.

You could try a powered hub with a micro usb female port but Im not sure if it would work or not. I know via a powered hub you can have several devices connected at the same time but to include MHL I'm really not sure. Is there an MHL cable with a female USB / micro USB slot in it? So you could connect the MHL directly into the phone and then potentially feed the USB hub from it? Not sure m8.
