Micro HDMI

Amazon has the micro HDMI cable for 5.99 with 5.00 shipping

link please?

I think he means one of these. But I would rather get a tiny little HDMI>microHDMI adapter, similar to this one I have for my camcorder, so that I could just unplug my xbox's (or Zune HD dock) cable and throw the adapter on whenever I want to hook it up. Unfortunately my TV only has 2 HDMI ports so I'm stuck with either that or plopping down like $25 for a dumb and annoying HDMI hub. I'll probably buy the cable anyways, throw it in my car or something, have a portable movie hub for when friends want to see a movie, I'll just get the cable and hook it up to their tv's. But most of my friends TV's don't even have HDMI lol

**** IF IT DOESNT SAY "TYPE D" IT WONT WORK *****
Those links are "mini" connectors, not to be confused with "micro"

O I see so there aren't any on amazon that I haven't found

Aren't all those type C? I thought the Evo 4G used a Type D connector.

yes, as mentioned above, those are Type C, or Mini-HDMI.
Evo needs Type D, or Micro-HDMI.
If you look around, you can find Type D for around $8~, I know because I ordered one already.

I believe this is what you will want:

Ordered! Shipping is expensive though and what is a Energy Surcharge. Anyway it's done.

at the above link the cost is $12.20 after shipping. Good quality cable also. Obviously remove the spaces and change the "dot" to "." from the link as I cant yet post url's

I paid $16 in total for mines. I ended up ordering one because I will just share it with my GF and it'll stay at home anyway. I have to buy a mounting dock for the car and a good car charger.

seen that site, but not sure if it's shipped from US. Got a feeling it's form Hong Kong or something..
Typically ships in 4 to 7 days* (7 to 10 during new year season) Worldwide Free Shipping on Everything Worldwide Free Shipping

i think i will wait till monoprice gets this cable in i can't bring my self to pay no more than 10 bucks for a cable that site has spoiled me rotten

I love monoprice but I plan to load my Evo with movies and shows so I had to jump on it. I'm going to put all the seasons of Family Guy on it.

If anyone finds something like this post it here or PM me, I'm not wasting money on a cable I'll have to reach the back of my TV every time to plug in. Nor will I spend a lot for an HDMI hub. I might buy one cable to throw in my car for on the go but thats about it.

HDMI Type D male to Type A Female

No it does what I need, I just unhook my hdmi cable from my xbox or zune hd dock and put the adaptor in, and the other end of the adaptor in my phone. It's that simple.

Cheap Micro-HDMI cable?

Has anyone found a cheap Micro-HDMI cable yet? I usually buy my cables from Monoprice.com, but they only have mini-HDMI cables, no Micro yet. $30 from Sprint seems rather expensive for something that will soon be about $6 from monoprice.
Just curious if anyone else has found some online yet.
Bummer that the EVO uses Micro USB as well, would have preferred mini usb..oh well.

I emailed monoprice about carrying Type D micro HDMI cables, and they said they'd have them available "soon", so that's what I'm waiting for.

Sweet! That's great news. I'll have to keep an eye out for them to show up in stock. I think I'll pick up a few micro-usb cables at the same time (one for the desk, one next to the bed, and one in the car.)
If you see 'em before I do, share in forums that they're in stock eh?
Thanks!

ive seen them for as low as $13, not a bad price. im waiting to see if they have a video dock similar to the zune hd though.

HDMI to MINI HDMI $6.72 but who cares we need micro .... sheesh im an idiot

Ok just in case anybody cares, got one of these on order from Overstock. Decent deal I'd say, 6.72 including shipping.

There's nothing to correct. The evo uses a micro (type d) connector. The cable on overstock is a mini (type c).

Monoprice rocks. Looks like they aim to have the micro HDMI -> HDMI cables in stock in just under a week. Excitement, I has it.

If you already bought a mini cable, why not get a mini-to-micro adapter?

Cheap hdmi cable on amazon

Hey guys since the new kernels coming out with full hdmi, I think I might finally bite the bullet and buy a cable. Anyone know of a.good cheap one on amazon? Or anyone have any suggestions for some? I know mono price normally has good cheap cables. Any help is appreciated.

I was going to suggest mono price.. they have mini hdmi to hdmi for about 3 bucks...
I also would suggest just getting the mini hdmi adaptor piece... http://www.google.com/products/cata...=X&ei=iIKDTcqmMoGqsAPepvX_AQ&ved=0CEoQ8gIwAg#

Why get the mini adapter when monoprice has the Full Size HDMI to Mini HDMI in stock?

If this is for the HTC Evo 4g, then the correct plug is Micro Hdmi and not mini.

Pick your size. Got mine 2 days later. Works great.

This is correct, I wasn't paying attention when I quoted above. Either way it's still dirt cheap at Monoprice.com and a waste of money to buy an adapter.

I just ordered mine. Hope they dont break too easily

Monoprice cables are great quality, plus they have a lifetime warranty.

do you need to get the high speed cable, or will the standard speed work ok?
my couch is 10 feet from my tv, so I need a longer cable, which only comes in standard speed..
thanks

This one works for me:
http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10253&cs_id=1025301&p_id=7559&seq=1&format=2

ok, so the adapter doesnt fit snug.....it works but,its wiggely. i would say go with the cable.igot one of those two.works like a champ.both with two day shipping for;$16.

Hope it works best!

After extensive research I feel this is a great cable.... Just ordered it for 9.84 shipped.
15 ft away from the TV or LCD will be nice.

Where to get micro USB to a female usb

I can't find any on amazon that prove to have data transfer or hosting capabilities.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App

I recommend one of these types:
http://www.meritline.com/micro-usb-type-b-male-to-usb-a-female-cable-black---p-62877.aspx
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250817547531#ht_4462wt_905
But the less ideal ones, that may put physical stress on your usb port because they are bulky and heavy, are also available:
http://www.priceangels.com/Micro_USB_On-The-Go_Host_OTG_Adapter_Pair__p17467.html
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0023FTRUO
*Edit
Don't buy this one from amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/USB-Micro-Adapter-Converts-Devices/dp/B0027YYMU6
As it does not have OTG compatibility, i.e. your Xoom will not be host while using it. The others above all have OTG compatibility.
I've orderd the ebay one.
Hope this information was useful.
Cheers

I ordered this cable, I think it is compatible
what do you think?

thank s

Sorry to be the bringer of bad news.
If this is the same cable as the one you bought:
http://lunashops.com/goods.php?id=1434
Then I don't think it will fit in the Xoom.
That one has a Micro USB A male, and I think the Xoom can only take a Micro B.
For Products that are compatible with OTG, they are supposed to have an AB type port that allows the A cable to attach for OTG and the B for Slave. But it seems that OTG was an after thought for Motorola and thus the Xoom only has a B-type port, so you have to get an unconventional Micro-B to USB A type for it. Hence why they are so hard to find.
Here is what the different connectors look like, from wikipedia:
And this is the port for the Xoom:
The cables I linked to above all look like they have Micro USB B males.

I ordered this one http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290540648726
Is it compatible, too?

correct me if im wrong, but has anyone found a usb otg cable that will actually work with the xoom. I dont mean cables that were made up. I mean a cable from an actual website or store that works out the box? I see people recommend the ebay one, but does anyone actually have it? Im looking all over the internet for a confirmation on something that works.

This one looks like it should fit, but I'm not sure if it is made for OTG or not. Suppose there is no way to know until you get it.
Timrock, I have ordered the eBay one I posted earlier, I can let you know in a week or two. But it looked right, said it was for OTG and was really cheap, so I'm not to worried if it doesn't work. Will make my own if it doesn't.
But ya, otherwise we can wait to see which ones the other guys used.
Maybe check in the dev section where they released the kernel that allowed USB host, maybe someone there will confirm which ones worked.
Cheers

I found another thread where a guy had a Micro USB A cable like the one you ordered and he just filed his down to fit it in.
Here is his post on another thread
alias_neo said:
Well, the iGo is no good, because they probably don't have the data lines connected, as it's for charging.
The one in your next post on eBay won't fit if it's an CA-157 substitute, I got hte real Nokia CA-157 and the connector is squared off at the end, picture: HERE
however, I did get a file to the end of my CA-157 and filed it to fit, and YES it works (taking a picture now)..... attached.

Well I just ordered the $2.99 one from Meritline.com. They say it ships from the warehouse in China and should take 2-3 weeks. But hey shipping was free and they accept Paypal, so I didn't have to give them my credit card...
We'll see.

The cable to go seems this one!

The official from Motorola

I ordered mine for $4 (free shiping) from china sometime last week, it has not arrived yet lol, but I'm far away anyhow, I couldn't wait and used a micro usb cable I had laying around and a femme USB port and got myself a "free" OTG, and somewhat aesthetically pleasant to the eye.
