Hey everyone and Happy Thanksgiving.
I purchased several usb-c to HDMI adapters from Amazon. All of them look the same but apparently the internals are not. I plugged all three into the Huawei Super Charge brick the 5a USB cable and into the same monitor and mouse. 2 would drain my M10 LCD about 20% in about an hour. The other would only drain the phone about 3% in an hour. So if you hook up to your monitor a lot might want to try this one.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072JC7RBB/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The others looked the same but different color and different name. One was a Mokin (black)and the other was Elnath(silver). On all three the phone only shows one lightning bolt.
Also it might be me but the response time for the good one seems faster than the other two.
I got an el cheapo on Ebay from China and it charges my phone while plugged in.

disclaimer: I am no way affiliated to the seller so don't blame if it doesn't work or the seller sends you something else. Happened to me before but I am willing to take the risk given the low price. Some even give you a full refund if they sell you crap. The tip is to make sure that the seller has good ratings so they would want to maintain their ratings. Be careful of sellers that boost their own positive ratings. Just check how many negative ones they got. A few is normal but too many and you can forget about buying from them. Another tip is to send the seller a message before buying and see how fast the response is.
Both of the ones posted here look like rebranded COOV SH350s. They supposedly work fine, but I've heard one story of it frying a Nintendo Switches USB-C port. Use with caution, I guess?

Thankfully hasn't fried mine but charges a bit slowly. XD
I just realized, I have this accessory for my MBP. Will try if it works if I have the chance.
Hopefully it will not fry my Mate 10.

Yes, but it's slowly charging, not sure why though.
I'm afraid to try my MBP's charger, it's a 60 watt, me thinks.
I'm guessing it's because the adapter doesn't deliver as much power as the wall wart normally would.

I found this product Ugreen-All-in-1-USB-C-HUB-with-Type-C-PD-Power-4K-Video-HDMI-SD product from aliexpress that's designed for Mate 10 among other phones/computers (Google "CM179 ugreen"). I wonder if it'll work with USB keyboard. Has any one tried this product?
Hi there,
does anybody use his phone with the HD-500 Microsoft Dock? I tried it but then the resolution of the easy projection mode is very small. Same setting are make full HD with the 950 xl. I have ordered a new cable but I want to know.
Otherwise does anybody know a setting inside the mate 10 pro to resize the external screen size?
...on the Luma exist something for this....
I am happy for any hint.
Nice Time
i bought this from amazon and it wont work, should it do or is it the wrong kind of adapter for the projection desktop ? https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B076SP59MG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Does anybody know of a dock that works with the XT720? I found one from Amazon for the droid that since the micro USB port looks to be in the same place it looks like it might work. I just didn't know if anybody knew of any or knew if this one worked.
I've been told that the docks available that appear to work for our phone will not work due to the positioning of the USB port. Ours are upside down from the droid's or the motoroi's. Unless someone knows otherwise.

bro, i've been googling this for a while.
3 questions:

2- is there a way to put music though usb port?
3-do you have any link XD?
tks!
Just put a decent strength magnet on the back of your phone and move it around next to the camera and watch what happens, It's pretty neat. Too bad Motorola doesnt have a dock available to take advantage of this feature.
its available, and i have it, but for some reason moto is not putting it up for sale(perhaps other than in korea)..
people who got their XT720 from Starhub Singapore received the dock as free gift, and it does put the phone into multimedia dock mode where it will function as a deskclock/media player.

Here's a link (I don't know why it was hard for me to find now as well...): http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-hacks/2425-how-diy-media-car-dock.html
There are dock apps, check around for Droid/Milestone Dock in android market. I tried one once, that worked fine, but I think it only works for 2.1 so prob won't be compatible with Dexter Froyo. I think there are others that do. Check around. I don't know about making it turn on specifically when you charge the phone, could be though.
For myself, I want to get the Spider Podium dock because there are so many uses for it (i.e. dock anywhere at any angle, tripod for the camera, etc...). Only thing is, I don't know how I can get a magnet on that.... guess we'll find out once I get one.
Thanks for the link syrenz!
Google returned a lot of finished docks and few not so good step-bystep instructions.
The Lego dock on the link might be just what I need.
Only thing is, I don't know how I can get a magnet on that....

I think sticking it to one of the legs will do the trick.
Is it easy to find one of those spider podium in Ottawa or are they sold online only?
I can confirm the Droid 2 dock WILL NOT work for our phone. Everything is the same. same size, but as earlier mentioned the usb port is 180 deg off from ours. Again Motorola sticks it to XT720 owners.

you can buy the docking station at whymobile.com brouse motorola, then accessories and you with see the docking station for the xt720. its $30 plus shipping from singapore, about $90 Canadian or $100 US total cost I think, not sure its worth it, but it is available.
Anyone found a good one for the O2X?
One that support battery + hdmi.
Im also interrested in things too.

I doubt you will find a dock that has HDMI, there are no official HDMI docks and its not exactly a universal item

I was hoping they came with docs like the Atrix 4G.
But cause of HDMI locating on top, I think it would be a hard job.
I have ordred the KiDiGi one, it looks like it have USB host function (OUTPUT USB).
It certainly need to be tested
Specifications:
● Net Weight: 118g
● Dimension: 112 x 90 x 33 mm
● INPUT: DC 5V/1000mA - USB 5V/500mA
● OUTPUT: USB: DC 5V/500mA - BATTERY: DC 4.2V/500mA
It will be delivered sometime in June.

Yea when the Atrix came out i really wanted a phone and dock like that. but for the price its not worth it. Id rather have my phone and an asus transformer. or now that they are cheaper a Gtab. we are out of luck for docking but I have a Duracell mygrid charging mat thats pretty cool

Shipping took 8 days from HK to The Netherlands.
Looks nice, although the provided cables are a bit on the short side it's great that they deliver a EU adapter with it.
The originals are coming aswell.
I still wish there was a charging dock like on the N1.
These are all nice but they are more like holders and cradles. to me a "dock" has some In/out funtion and at least charges without the standard USB plug.
Maybe I can hack up my duracell Mygrid and make a quick charger dock for the car
There are some cheap ones n eBay with and without an extra space to charge a spare battery.

as these USB-OTG cables allow you to connect USB devices to you're phone. the standard things will be a flash drive, keyboard, mouse. now about drivers in android. what else can you do with this? connect an USB-IR receiver? USB IO box?(serial) USB to RJ45? DVB-T receiver?
This would make a nice addition to the list of working cables, the functions of USB-OTG on the NOTE II!
Samsung USB-OTG cables for Galaxy Note works on Galaxy Note2 too. It doesn't seem to do the same the Samsung MHL/HDMI cable for Galaxy Note. Can someone confirm it?
I heard that Samsung MHL/HDMI cable for SGS3 works with Note2, don´t know about the one with original Note.
Dirt-cheap ebay usb-microusb cables never worked for me on SGS1, only good for charging.
Good idea this thread
so I got a otg usb cable for an external hdd. and obviously it doesn't work because the hdd format is ntfs. anyone know how to make your note 2 device read ntfs external hdds?
kernel support is needed to read NTFS partitions natively. if you have root you could try the NTFS mounters for OTG available in the play store.
What HD formats does it actually read natively? Just FAT32?

I apologise for you not making it clear what you were talking about.
So I am usually a lurker on XDA, but I thought I'd get the community's thoughts. I'm a fellow Nexus 7 owner and I want a dock that uses the pogo pins. I'm tired of waiting for ASUS and I also happen to be a mechanical engineer that works in the consumer electronics industry. So, I've mocked up my own design. It's similar to the ASUS design and will have USB charging and audio out. The only way I could bring it to market is Kickstarter.
Before I go through that much effort (Kickstarter has revised its approval process) I want to gauge demand. The sale price would be $30. I've made a poll below to streamline things, but feel free to add comments. Rendered concept below. I am also considering adding stereo RCA outputs as well. Would you want that?

|UPDATE 1|
Thanks everyone for the feedback! I'm still in the early design phase so feedback helps. To address the request for speakers: at this point it's not something I'm looking to add. It adds cost, development time and complexity. Depending on how well things go if I put it on Kickstarter, a speaker option may be considered. Also, now that I've seen there is some interest, I refined the design slightly to slim it up. See below:

well, if you WANT to people buy your dock, putt 2 USB's. i would buy a dock, but a dock like this needs a USB ports. so everybody could use mouses, keyboards or harddrives.

I would love to, but the pogo pins do not support USB OTG (needed for keyboards, usb drives, etc.) That would require connecting to the micro-USB port. Also, as of now, charging while using OTG is almost non-functional. It may be possible with the Nexus 10 (6 pin pogo) but not the 7.
I'd buy it if available on Europe

Hi developers, I'm thinking about buying this phone but I have some questions to you who own a MHL HDMI adapter for Xperia Z1.
1) The phone uses MHL 1.0 or 2.0 ?
2) At what frequency works the HDMI ? 30Hz or 60Hz ?
3) is the output to TV laggy / delayed ? if yes, how much? (screen from my SGS 2 is delayed by about 500ms what I feel acceptable for movies/surfing but bad for work)
Thank you very much for answers.

I used 2 different MHL adapters. One was from Rocket Fish and the other was just a generic type MHL Adapter which just had MHL apapter written on it. The Rocket Fish one was $9.99 and the generic no brand one was $24.99 . The Rocket Fish one performed slightly better. I played Rayman games on MHL to my Sony 60" LED HDTV and it was flawless no lag, tried Asphalt 8 and was great, tried Modern Combat 4 and I had major lag, slowness to it. Web browsing and playing around the interface was good, you can tell it has a slight lag but I think it was great really.
I think theres an option in the developer options to display the 2nd display to 720P and Im sure that would improve speed a bit.
Go for the Rocket Fish MHL adapter. It worked great for me except for the very intensive game Modern Combat 4.

I believe this video will answer your question. Seems like it's the adaptor that matters in terms of what frequency it outputs and not about the device. I hope this helps.

The original stock adapter it's always a good choice to make it work right.
I just checked some of the response from that youtube video and the creator of that video did say it won't work with Xperia z1. Thats weird because I thought the Galaxy S3 also had a 5 pin (1.0) MHL and it worked. I am wondering why it won't work with the xperia z1 that is also 5 micro usb. I already ordered a Samsung MHL 2.0 from my local NCIX. I should have it in the next few days. I will report back.
i think it's a global problem... hdmi 1 or 2 or whatever just means if hdmi will work or won't.
once it's working it should run the same on every adapter...
untill i see a video of z1 working flawlessly with a specific hdmi adapter i'm not convinced.

This piece of crap can't even output 1080p. I went to the service menu using *#*#test#*#* (replace test with corresponding numbers) and there was select resolution option. Of course it said N/A even though I had the ability to choose the resolution which didn't change anything.
I could tell a small lag in GTA San Andreas + Sometimes it even lagged (for an eye-blind, but still) in the plain UI doing nothing. I also tried DTS and Dolby Digital plus. Both worked in stereo.
Weird thing is that even though I was doing basic stuff like chrome etc it didn't charge using the stock charger and cable if connected to this adapter. HDMI cable was not plugged to the adapter at all. I tried to use it as a charger pass through. With HDMI not plugged in the phone said smartconnect: charger so it's the adapter itself.
Stay away from this one for sure!
Will try this rocket sth one.

I won't get it until after the weekend, but I will remember you guys are waiting
I bought a cheapo eBay version, from here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1080P-Mini-Micro-USB-MHL-to-HDMI-Adapter-Cable-150mm-NEW-/200912649225
Lag is non-existent, or at least not easily noticeable, when scrolling through screens or websites. I haven't tried playing games but I don't see a problem. Have heard a lot of problems with these adapters, but I lucked out and mine works with no issues.
The specs for even MHL 1.0 say that it supports 60hz 1080p; in fact the only difference I could find in v2.0 was 900mAh charging, versus 500mAh in v1.0, and some kind of Samsung compatibility improvement. Samsung uses 11-pin microUSB port, and requires a specific USB-MHL adapter (or a tip adapter, 5-to-11 pin).
