Hello,
I want to do some stuff at the same time with my phone.
Watching a movie from an usb stick while charging the phone.
So, I've bought this HDMI converter
When you plug this into the phone you can plug in your charger or USB OTG adapter in the usb port on the HDMI converter.
But i can't find any splitter cable on the internet or ebay so i can charge my phone and connect my usb stick at the same time.
I wonder if this is even possible. It is possible to charge the phone when HDMI converter is connected and it is also possible to connect my USB stick to the HDMI converter.
Anyone ever tried this or has found a simple micro usb splitter cable or normal usb splitter cable?
You can't connect a normal USB Hub because i can't send power back to my phone through the hub.
Thanks :good:
Sorry I can't help with your splitter request.
However I'd be really interested in knowing if those two items work fine with the Note 2?

so the i know it isnt possible with the 5 pin mhl adapter (the old one thats not compatible with this phone)
I wonder if the 11pn version does allow this. I know the cables dont exist for what you are looking to do, there is a galaxy note smart dock 2 that seems to allow hdmi and 3 usb ports, if they allow it at the same time then it would be at least possible.
it must be. did you try the smart dock?

I've ordered one and i will see how it will perform. smart dock is nice but pricey i'd like one for home and work!
Bought this one http://goo.gl/6OiGx and as it is listed compatible with the NOte 2 and the Galaxy S3 i was hoping it would work with the Note 2 as well - nope: only power OR OTG, not both.

Hey all.
Just bought a 5-pin MHL cable after accidentally buying 2x 11-pin cables. Now the problem is the phone doesn't seem to recognize the MHL cable at all.
I plug the USB end into a 2.1A adapter (double the necessary), the HDMI cable into a Panasonic HDTV and the MicroUSB into my XPZ. Figuring it should work like that I turned the TV onto the correct channel and nothing happens.
Previously when I had the 11-pin cables the phone would at least switch in landscape mode and not come out (even thought the cable wasn't right). Now that I have the right cable it doesn't work at all.
I'm running the latest nightly build of Avatar ROM but as far as I know their isn't any problem with Avatar and MHL.
Any help would be great. Cheers.

Hi
I need some help around this.
I have a tab 3 (t315) i bought a OTG & MHL Adapter Micro USB Connection Kit HDMI and want to use it in the car for usb host and audio out.
Now I have a problem that this doesnt charge the tablet. Also dont know yet if i can output audio thrue hdmi with a adapter and at the same time use usb host.
Anyone can tell me how to make it charge and if i can use it as i think ?
If not how can i make a diy micro usb cable for usb host, audio output and charge at same time ?
Or if anything like this is awailable to buy somewhere
thanks
