ac charger

Anyone know of a decent ac charger that works with the nexus? I have like 5 micro usb chargers from various old phones, but only one or two work with the nexus.

I used the one that came with the phone

I use the one that came with my Nexus One. It's 5W charger, like the Samsung wall wart, but has a cable that's a foot or so longer. I keep the Samsung at the girlfriend's. At work I use a 5V/.85a motorola that I found lying around.
Any brand name charger will work fine. Off brands...well...you get what you pay for sometimes.

Idk if itll help, but I have an HP Touchpad in the house, and the "barrel" like wall adapter and a random micro-USB charge with "AC" power as shown by the nexus.
tl;dr buy an HP touchpad charger on the cheap.

Cheap HDMI adapters?

Shopping accessories for my Galaxy Tab 10.1 Verizon, I notice that there's a ton of generic USB Host adapters and memory card readers available for dirt cheap, but nobody seems to have done a generic HDMI adapter. Am I simply looking in the wrong places, or is there a reason why only the expensive Samsung branded ones are available?

You are right. Nothing generic on ebay... Only Samsung original.

Dealextreme also has a ton of generic USB adapters and such, but nothing for HDMI.
I don't really NEED HDMI of course, but it would be kind of nice.

maybe you could try to look for it at staples they had it real cheap last time i looked

I bought my hdmi adapter from verizon wireless..$9 for the docking station etc..best price and works perfect

MHL Adaptor

Are you guys using the OEM samsung one or a third party one? I've been looking to get one and the Samsung one seems really overpriced. I ordered the Fosmon one but it was out of stock and the reviews for it aren't thay great so I might up ordering the OEM one.

I'm not talking about chargers, I'm talking about the adaptor that turns the phone's usb port into an hdmi port

I'm pretty sure we as Note 2 owners are locked into using Samsung's proprietary MHL adapter. We can't even use one that worked with the GS2, Galaxy Nexus, or even the Note 1 without an additional adapter. The GS3 and the Note 2 have a special pin layout that requires their newest and most expensive MHL adapter. Amazon has one for 34 bucks and I've been hesitant to jump on it because I don't know how much I'll really use it.

i just bought one samsung mhl to hdmi of ebay and it dint work on my note 2 only on the galaxy s3

I am using an 11 pin wire I bought off of amazon for 15 bucks. Its an all in one soulution. It has a micro usb head for the phone, full size usb to plug into your tv or power block and an hdmi. Works well. Ive had no problems.

Bought this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00A9H30LU/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1356068387&sr=8-5&pi=SL75
It should be here tomorrow. Wish i would have seen that red one. Does the same job for half the price. Oh well i guess.

I ended up getting the official Samsung MHL adapter from best buy online because I had some rewards zone credits. paid nothing for it. Unfortunately, it turned out that it was the older generation adapter and doesn't work with my note 2. Ordered the 5pin to 11pin adapter from samsung using the 50% off coupon and paid 5 bucks (plus 4 bucks shipping sadly) This combination works perfectly. a bit clunky with the additional piece but cost me 9 bucks total, can't complain. Works perfectly even using the extra adapter. :good:

ps - smart dock for the note 2 is also avaliable on amazon atm

Micro usb to hdmi

mostly won't work, probably designed for note1, not compatible with note2.
you need one with 11 pins.
just search Samsung HDMI adaptor, if it said for galaxy s3, then it will works!
galaxy s3 also is 11 pins.

So this would work then?

yes, it should works if you buy BOTH of them.
but I would suggest buying Samsung brand,
I have a Samsung brand and it works!
maybe better video quality too.
or you can get the allshare hub, stream it to HDTV wireless!

New Charger Cable

If anyone uses a good quality cable or knows of one could u point me in that direction because I always find that the samsung ones stop working after a while around where it plugs into the phone.

I always buy the 1 buck things from eBay. They work pretty well and if one breaks there are still enough, because I always buy 5 or 6 at a time.

I have a media bridge 6 foot cable I got off amazon. Great charger cable. It seems like it charges faster than stock too. Not just on my nexus, but also my uncles note.

Just checked eBay.
From 1€ to 4,10€ in a day...
Lucky me. I bought 5 for 1 each a few weeks ago.
Hope they will lower the price soon.

I recently bought a nice retractable one from my local Office Max. Liking it a lot! Charges just as fast as the original cable and works for data as well.

I think Google just started accessories for the Nexus 4, like a USB cable, maybe that one will be solid.
