I got the Smart Dock, but it puts stuff in portrait mode on monitor. I have Ultimate Rotation Control app. But what I want to do is have the device itself on its side. So I can use the touch screen on the Note 2 when I want to. Hard doing that when looking at the device's context (on the Note 2 screen) on its side. I will use both USB mouse and keyboard. But still want to use touch screen from time to time. My Monitor is 1080p, but not touch screen.
I am looking into USB Micro-B Male/Female Extension/adapter (5 pin). I would what is the best cable out there to use. Is the Micro USB on the Smart Dock 5 pin or the MHL 11 pin? if 11 pin should I try to find a MHL Male/Female Extension/adapter? Does should a thing exist? If the micro USB on the Smart Dock is 5 pin, is there a Samsung special micro UBS pin layout? If so then how to get around the pin layout issue?
Basically I want to put the extension into the Smart Dock, put my Note 2 sideways (to work with touch screen on Note 2, w/o creating side neck issues), and plugin the other end of the extension to the Note 2.
Side note: what keyboard and mouse did you use with Smart Dock?

Hi JaguarXT,
I know this post was about a month ago, but I thought I would check in to see if you were able to get this issue resolved. Like you, I am interested in a similar setup as you. I have the smart dock and the galaxy note 2, but I have mine in a Otterbox defender case, and for obvious reasons I have to take my n2 out of the case in order for it to work with the dock. Just wondering if you found some cables/adapters that worked in your setup.
Thanks in advance,
Statustray
Bump,
Do you think this would be what you where looking for?

Yep, definitely what you want.
From the backorder set to September,
Looks like you aren't the only one.

It's 11 pin connector they used. The thing sends 2 way mhl, 2 way otg, 2 channels audio and has ground, sense and power pins too. So no way to have only 5 pins as you can see.
My phone detects the s pen as soon as it is withdrawn from phone. After about a minute it stops working and you have to re-insert pen and pull out again to continue. S note app is still active while pen is out. Just stops detecting pen totally. My phone is 920c , stock Rom, unrooted.
Any ideas?
Hi I have galaxy note 5. Today I will try to get my s pen but not working iam searched in google my spen sensor is broken any way to fix this
I just bought a galaxy note 9 for about 3 days. it came with android pie preinstalled, from day one I had one very annoying problem with my s pen. Whenever I insert my s pen into the phone for more than 2 hours or so, after removing the s pen for writing, the s pen doesn’t write and work on screen for about 1 to 4 minutes and the screen doesn’t recognize the s pen but after that everything goes back to normal.
I should mention that I tried rebooting the phone, clearing the cache partition, factory resetting the phone and resetting the s pen remote and also I turn off the s pen remote function but none of these method worked for me. (I should point out that the s pen remote function works fine) I kept s pen out of the phone for about 12 hours and then test the s pen on screen and it was perfectly working fine and I also tried with my note 4’s s pen on note 9 screen and the writing was without a problem. I feel that my note 4 s pen is way better than the note 9 s pen and also the pressure sensitivity of note 4 s pen on note9 screen is better for example I had to press very hard on screen with note 9 s pen to get the same line thickness that I can create with note 4 s pen with much less pressure.
In short whenever I keep my s pen in the phone for more than two hours the s pen doesn’t write on screen and completely hangs for 1 to 4 minutes and then works normal.
Please somebody help me because my phone doesn’t have a warranty and I don’t want to stuck with this problem after coming from legendary note 4.
Sounds like a hardware problem to me. The spen slot sounds faulty. You need to borrow another note 9 spen to test.
Hi All !
First hope all stay safe from COVID !!!
I have a galaxy note 8 with dead screen and "maybe" dead touch function. After connecting phone to my tv with UGREEN TypeC-HDMI+USB adapter, I can controll the phone to disable all screen lock accept swipe and enable USB debugging. But now DEX not working, and everything I can do is seeing my phone battery level via Samsung Find My Phone. It still connects to my wifi network.
All solutions that I tried to mirror my phone need acceptance from device, but I couldn't do anything with deadscreen. The TypeC port occupied with cable so I couldn't plug mouse or keyboard.
It's a waste to throw this phone away and it pollutes our environment. I would like to use it until it deads totally.
Please help. Thank you in advance
Up ! UP ! UP !
Hoping someone have solution for this issue.
