[Q] Desktop Sync and Charge Cradle With HDMI Out

Hello folks,
I found this dock on the mobilefun website.
It says it has HDMI, and i'm verry curious if this realy works! Did someone bought this, or can somebody confirm that this dork works?
Or should i buy this dock instead and buy a MHL cable with it to connect it to my TV?

No, it seemed not to be compatible with any case, so I won't buy~~~

I would buy the 1st one with HDMI built-in if your going to output to these device types. The 2rd unit is good for chaging a second battery.
What the OP was saying its not suited for them as it will not fit with a case on the SGS2. in the dock!
Thanks for the link as I was just about to place an order for the 2rd unit...

I think with this genuine samsung battery cradle dock you just have to use a 5pin mini usb to hdmi cable
sent from my 2.3.3|dxkg3 DJGalaxy S2

I saw that dock the other day too and Im very tempted, just need to wait until pay day at the end of the week!
If you're going to be using an MHL cable, I think you might as well buy that dock, works out cheaper than buying a dock and MHL cable separately, plus it looks kinda cool
Really want to read a review of it though as well, if anybody has bought one, any info would be massively appreciated.

well, ive bought a spare battery so the 2-in-1 charger would be verry handy, but on the other side, a dock with hdmi output would be awesome to, i just dont know if it works because the dock should have an "build-in mhl system" if you know what i mean.. so im waiting till someone reviews the first dock i posted

Thats what Ive been thinking. It must surely have MHL built in though or the HDMI would be completely pointless. Roll on pay day, can always send it back if it doesnt work lol

Bump,
I'm currently looking for a dock that also has HDMI out, so thought I'd bump this thread... Has anyone found one ?
I was about to order the original Samsung MHL > HDMI adapter from Amazon, but I'll hold off on the order as what I really want is a dock that has it build it..
Thanks and sorry if this has been answered already ( I have been searching t'internet for a few hours for an answer.. )
Cheers

i ordered one from nicecans last night, its £17.99 delivered and seems Kidigi branded and looks the same one from OP first link. says stock from 11th Oct so will see if it actually comes through.

Thanks Zulm,
I'd be interested if you can post a quick review when you get it, hopefully you'll have it in a day or 2.
I've just had a look on their site and it does look very nice and if it works for you, then I'll get the same one.
Cheers

Got a "Despatched" email on Monday but still nothing in the post, stills says no stock on nice can website. Give it a day or two more before I chase it.

Good stuff, fingers crossed !

Hmm nothing today either. I wish I had searched for the retailer before ordering, they don't sound the most trusted deliverer of goods!

Just a warning for anyone else!

Well well wonders never cease, it turns up today!
..it works! Come with a USB and power adapter but this doesn't have to be used I connected it to my Dell monitor via a standard USB cable that came with the S2. My Dell has no sound out so could not test that and it is only 1680x1050 native res but HMDI did work. I will test on my Sony TV later on and see how that goes.
---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------
Few annoying things I've found already
- when connected via HMDI to a non-native 1080p display it seems to constantly try to sync with the display with the picture disappearing for a few second then reappearing. It doesn't seem to stabilize even after leaving it for a while. This happens on my Dell monitor and my Sony HDTV (D4000) when connected via HDMI both are non-1080p devices. On my other Samsung 1080p TV the TV-out picture is solid and stable and doesn't have these sync issues. I guess this is probably the case for all MHL cables out there and not necessarily a problem with this dock but problem with firmware/software? Is there TV out configuration tool that can be used to sort these HMDI sync issues?
- the USB on the dock is for charge only - it doesn't get recognized on your PC when connected by USB.

Is it really so, that it can't be used to sync phone with PC?
The PC doesn't recognize it at all, or is there driver missing?

The PC doesn't recognize it all, on the back of the dock it says "DC in 5V" - so I assume the USB is used to power the dock only.

[MOD] Lego dock (using pogo pins)

Others photos have been made with Gnex's with flash:
I've been using regular boards pins : used some scissors to reduce their width (did that randomly until it was fitting inside the lego bricks).
Then used a hammer to make two holes on top of a lego brick, evaluated where holes have to be only with eyes. First brick was a fail and gap between pins was too wide, 2nd try was good.
Linked the 2 wires from a wall charger to the pins (need to attach 'em more seriously (with some duct tape) as it's only wrapped around atm).
Then tested and it's charging instantly... (info on phone show that it's "usb charging")
Will probably add some floor so it'll maintains pins in position even if I move around the dock
Yay ;-)

He he, cool :-D

WIN!!

Very nice idea, and great work on it!

Nice work, if only it enabled dock mode.

You said you were going to do it. Looks great. My question is: why does using the pogo pins charge at USB rates? Not a deal breaker for me but I would have expected AC charging mode. Any ideas?

I didn't said I would do it!
It seems you always get usb charging if u use the pogo pins, so no choice about that.
For the desk mode, well night clock (free app) can turn the phone automatically into a clock when charged and support landscape view... imho it's still pretty limited.
But I guess this lego dock can sit on the desk at my office to get some juice during day (+ that will make coworkers talk).
Anyway I'll probably get a desktop official dock whenever they are out (I'm not 100% sure if my dock is risk-free (use of board pins, use of a wall charger for pogo pins) : any input on risks will be welcome ;p

My mistake. I thought it was you in another thread that said they were going to make a dock out out of Legos.
As for the pogos only charging at USB rates, that seems a little short sighted on Samsung's part. There are numerous threads on here about using navigation/LTE on USB charging and the charger can't keep up. Maybe that's why Verizon's car dock does not have pogo pins and opts for the USB connection.

Good idea. That probably would solve the issue.

I make a dock with knex long time ago, for my samsung galaxy spica and for my bq verne, some pics

I use an app called DeskHome by Cowbell Software. It launches the dock app or any app you want when plugged into a charger. It hasn't been updated since I used it on my Nexus One but it works great with my Galaxy Nexus.

first gen ^^.

This is pretty awesome!

Hey man!
Really good idea!
Congrats!
So, I have a Xoom´s dock. I dont know anything about pogo pins, execpt they have it.
My question: Can I use the pogo pins form Xoom to charge my GN? (I´ll change place to make it fit on GN).

As I learned from trying to do the same thing on my car dock mod.

Where can I get a MHL adapter? Link?

Does anyone have an idea where I can get the MHL hdmi adapter for my gt8013?
I saw one on ebay but i'd rather buy from a store or amazon..
Thanks
and any word on a multimedia dock?

Bump - I want one too but don't want to pay £30!!
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

Likewise i've just seen the price of the adapter, what on earth!? There's no way i'm paying that I assumed it was much the same deal as MHL to microusb and fairly low cost.
Is there really not a non-Samsung version that is significantly cheaper? or maybe a DIY method!

As far as I can tell (from buying cables that were unsuitable) the only cable that will work to connect your Note to your tv is the HDTV adapter
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/EPL-3PHPBEGXAR
or similar for your country. PCWorld in the UK sell them for £12.99 (epl-3phpbeg) if you can find stock or a salesperson who actually knows what you are asking for. I found mine in the tv section with all the Smart tv accessories.

That PC World price must be for the wrong item but searching for that code has brought up a handful of retailers selling it for near £22. Still too much imo when it's clearly not too different from the countless <£5 microusb versions!
Maybe i'll come across a used one some day.

They aren't on the website. Best to call a store. Or visit. Found mine in the Samsung Smart tv accessories section, nowhere near the computer department.

I have that adapter and just bought the (more expensive) Allshare Cast Dongle.
With the adapter one should keep in mind that a (more or less) long HDMI cable is necessary to connect the adapter to the TV/beamer/monitor.
The Dongle works wireless and can be just put beside the display device.

I'm looking for something I could connect my tab to HDMI, maybe a USB, and could charge it
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

How well does the connector work? is this the same story like on galaxy s3, that the framerate is halfed down, or does it run at 30fps, cause I dont want to throw away another 25 euros for an adapter, that doesnt even work properly. -.-

ive looked at the media docks for the 10" Tabs on amazon and their TV out potential but I havent found anything conclusive in regards to their performance with the Notes.

the galaxy tab (og galaxy tab) dock is only $18 on amazon and works fine with the gn101. just gotta be modded to prop it up.

Well forget what I asked for before can anybody find me a HDMI adapter?

the place where i ordered the MHL adapter canceled my order, go figure.
So I bought the OG samsung tab dock, dremeled off the sides a bit and it fits perfect. I don't have the right hdmi cable to test that part out, but so far it works fine (charging, sync, and audio through the headphone jack on the dock.)
Was only 10 on craigslist.
win.

I picked up the hdmi cable and it works perfectly.
I get 56fps using fps2d to test.
This is pretty cool.

USB "filter", make USB ports look like high power chargers... it works

Recently bought this adapter from amazon, a mfg named +pwr. It makes your lower power (computer and non samsung ac adapter) usb ports look like full power ports. Using it removes the red X from the charging icon and also allows the device to draw the max power available on the port - it's not going to magically make a 1 amp usb port draw 2 amps - but it will allow the device to draw max instead of a lower rate due to low power charging mode.
I've tested this on my PC, in my car and on an older Samsung ac adapter.
Well worth the 5 bucks I'd say. I'm planning to get one for each of my charge points and leave them installed.

Just be careful. There are adapters out there that were of an older design, primarily for the issue with iOS devices. Those won't work (you'll still see the red x). The one from Amazon works (I've tested it) but I can't comment on others. I'd suggest making sure that it at least explicitly states newer Samsung devices to be safe.

I don't suppose anyone knows of anyone in the UK doing these ? They are quoting 6-8 weeks for delivery to UK.
I've done a quick search, but am wary of knock-offs as OP rightly warned about. Would like to get something like this that people have tried and tested, but would prefer not to have to wait 2 months to get it !

Its by the same company. Think itll be the same?

I'm using rootbox myself and the cable I use isn't working. Is the cable you're using one continuous cable, or is it an adapter which u plug a usb cable into one end which changes the other end to hdmi?

Its a straight through with battery supply. Got it off amazon for $13

Mine has a slot for a usb charger. Fuzzy does your cable output 1080p for games and apps?

I will get back to you on that after I put my son to bed
