HDMI to Component Cable
HDMI to RCA Cable
I bought one of these, works really well. (They accidentally sent me two lol) http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-ORINIGA...ccessories&hash=item1e6e0da90a#ht_4523wt_1163
I know it's from China, but I haven't had any issues with it at all and I had it for a while.
says hdmi to rca, but that cable looks kinda like usb to me

Did you ever tried a Portable Pocket Projector like this one, with Galaxy S II ?

Or you have an idea if this or any other projector will work ?
Thanks
so no one has used a projector with SGS II?
PS: anyway the 24 euro offer for the pico projector form expansys si gone....
My guess is that it wouldn't work without some extra hardware or software. Looks like the projector takes its video input through mini-USB or composite. That's a bit of a problem because the SGS2's video out is MHL or HDMI. So you'd need a way to translate the SGS2's output to something the projector could understand.
Something like the Optoma PK-201, which has a HDMI input, should do the trick.
Worth checking out some reviews for these LED projectors first. I saw an offer for one the other day - around £15 or €17 but reviews suggest that it can't be seen properly even if you're in a room with all the blinds closed.
I ordered a car mount from mountguys and wanted to post a pic. It seems to be really well made and came with everything you could ever need in order to mount it.

two questions:
1) how are you charging the tablet? I can't seem to find a car usb adapter that outputs 2A for the 10.1...
2) what is the mount attached to?
If you look at one of the pics you will find a car charger from verizon that has a usb port and I have just been plugging it into that and I haven't had any issues.
Its mounted to a little storage area between the seats.

That's easy. Go to Best Buy, Fry's, where ever and get a car charger for an iPad. iPads also need 2.1 amp. Throw away the cable and use a GT cable.

I need a converter because I live in the US, the converter the seller gave me is cheap, and falls right off unless I hold it into place on the wall charger.
I bought these but they did not fit
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008M4MFLI/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
That's a UK (3-pin) plug.
Go to RadioShack with your charger and they'll give you a perfect adapter. They are quite pricey but I needed it for other stuff. Ah yes mine works perfectly with the UK adapter
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
That is definitely a UK adapter, i think you should be able to purchase an adapter from any electrical shop .
For the cost of the adapter, I'd just buy a local USB charger instead
Buy this one - UK to USA Plug Adapter
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000NND600/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Remove the USB cable and use a normal plug with it, don't mess around with pricey adaptors, it's a waste of money.
Anyone get a good slimport adapter?
Going to be at a hotel this week would love since mhl love
Bump
Hey,
I had a play with my SlimPort adaptor today, works a treat with the G4. Nice refresh rate too. I have the Kanex one. You can get it from amazon, ebay and from Kanex themselves at KanexLive.com.
Nice slim form factor too. Works without external power but also has a micro USB port for charging as well. My only unknown is whether it will support USB OTG as well using that port - I don't think Slimport supports that so probably a no, but I'll have a play later and let you know.
Cheers,
NJ
UPDATE: USB OTG doesn't work, if you wanna use it as a workstation you'll need a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse
I have bought 2 on eBay, didn't have problems with either but the sellers no longer have them. Items 181322353837 and 311183296532.

Back in the day a lot of Android phones can send video line out via the headphone jack, is this still a thing? Specifically with the G4?
If yes, how do I do it?
I know you can do it w/a micro usb to hdmi cable.
Not over the headphone port, no. But you can via the microUSB port using a SlimPort: http://www.slimportconnect.com/mobile-gaming-micro-usb-to-hdmi-vga/
What I really need is video out to RCA

Use the SlimPort then go VGA > RCA.
there might be a better way to get video where you want it.. in the car on the dash?
this is wireless and works like a chromecast http://www.amazon.com/Axxess-Mobility-AX-MLINK-Mirror-Interface/dp/B00POY9LRK
or this to go hdmi to rca after the slimport
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LU...rds=ishd01&dpPl=1&dpID=41R4w-9NCQL&ref=plSrch
you cant just get composite video output, not without some kind of digital to analog conversion. the phone only outputs in digital video format. the composite rca's (red white yellow) are analog
