Has anyone used the ET-UP900 on their devices? I have one but I need to use a right-angle adapter. Does anyone have experience using an extension cord with this? I have tried using a "Micro USB Down Angle" adapter but it doesn't charge or recognize the accessory.

is it possible to use a USB gamepad with the tablet? what kind of adapter would be needed?
You would need to construct an OTG cable, or use the hdmi dock.
Dell has never made an official OTG cable
You would probably need a PDMI to USB adapter, but I don't think any exist.
what if i use a female to female usb adpater like this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-USB-2-0-FEMALE-FEMALE-F-F-ADAPTER-CONNECTOR-/280732594049?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item415cf76f81#ht_2429wt_1041
Those are a great way to damage both devices being plugged into it, they're not normally made for a reason
My problem is simple, i'm tethering my Wifi Nexus 10 to my Galaxy S3 and the S3 just doesn't have the staying power of the tablet and the AP is battery intensive.
I have considered:
Extended battery (unofficial) - don't want the bulk.
Extended battery (official) - not cost effective.
The other option would be usb otg and charger cable but I'd like a single cable if possible.
To make it clear - I'm looking for a double ended micro usb (B) cable.
If anyone knows of a reason this wouldn't work please do say
You could use this adapter with your original cable to see if it dies the job.

I have the same setup (nexus10 and s3) let us know if it does work.
You could try monoprice.com. I get all of my cords and such from them.
eBuyer tend to be pretty good for this stuff.
Just FYI, I tried this using an OTG adapter and a standard USB-A to USB-B micro cable. Depending on which side I plug the OTG adapter into, the S3 charges the Nexus (when the adapter is plugged into the S3) or vice versa (when the adapter is plugged into the N10).
EDIT: It would be interesting to try though what would happen if one was to connect the four pins (VCC, D+, D-, GND) directly to one another, with the ID pin being left unconnected (since that is what a Micro-B to Micro-B cable would most likely do). My guess is that nothing will happen, since neither of the devices assumes a master/slave state and so it doesn't know that it should supply power to the other device. I guess I need to order some Micro-B plugs at Digi-Key and whip up a cable...

Does anybody know of a working MHL adapter with at least a 12" USB cable?
I tried these and they do not work (work probably 1 out of 20 times if you keep plugging/unplugging)

Is the Skiva MHL Micro USB to male HDMI cable (6.5 feet) for Samsung Galaxy S3 (SIII LTE i9300 L710 i747... the one that works with your M8?
I really want to get one that will work.

No, only the old Samsung one works consistently which has the short usb cAble.
I bought this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171391851548
works perfectly as I think most will.
It's all down to the sequence you plug the cables in.
Power>Phone>HDMI
Cant remember the correct sequence but try it out.
COPIED FROM AMAZON AD.
1. connect the charger to the adapter cable and power supply
2. connect the adapter cable to the HDTV device
3. connect the Smartphone to the adapter cable

I tried allcombinations before posting and none works consistently with the 2 cables I bought .
With the old Samsung adapter, it doesn't matter which order you plug in phone, power and hdmi.
I don't think all cables/adapters (advertised as 5 pin) are same. It cut open the usb part from the working Samsung adapter and it has 7 wires.
The other non working ones have 5.
If anyone is interested to know, this one works for me most of the time. Doesn't matter which order I plug it in (I usually plug the phone last though)

Its 3m in length and requires external power to work. It charges the phone although slower than MHL drains, i.e. your phone will still be discharging while connected via MHL but at a much slower rate.
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
Has anyone tried using a USB-C splitter to charge the tablet and listen to music at the same time via headphones?
I haven`t yet, have been wanting to get one from Amazon, I have mine mounted in my truck and use it for music through my Sync 3.5mm port.
tried a cheap one but it didn't work.
I tried cheap splitter , but also not charging.
Wonder if pogo connector charging influence on USB connection...
Not tested, but possibly no conflict here...
Any new experience about that?
https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Tablets/Tab-S6-usb-c-headphone-issue/td-p/1287516 gives more details about USB C audio splitters.
However i still can't find a compatible splitter on the web
