I've recently bought Xperia's HDMI cable. It works fine on TV but I wonder if it's possible to connect it to PC, to Video Cards HDMI, I have one. But when I connect nothing happens. If anyone knows how to use Phone as monitor via HDMI or to view phone on PC monitor via HDMI please help. Thanks in advance
You wanna use your computer as an external screen for your phone(just like tv)? The possible HDMI port in your computer is HDMI-out, and you cannot use it as HDMI-in. You will need some kind of a usb adapter for it.
And if your monitor(you have a desktop pc?) has an HDMI port, it would be an HDMI-in port. Try plugging your phone into your monitor?
it should work probably... don't know if the graphic card or the monitor will be propertly shown on phone due to resolution issues...
Thanks everyone, yea my video has hdmi out only, but i thought i could use it as hdmi in. anyway thanks for help, if u know any 3rd party software to solve my problem, please advice. Thanks for now
Hey! So i managed my S2 to work with an OTG adapter. Now it recognizes Flash drives, USB mouse and keyboard as well. My problem is though, that i'd want to use both the mouse and the keyboard simultaneously, and later on my tablet as well.
I've got a USB hub which was pretty cheap i guess,

When i connect it to the OTG adapter it lights up, and if there's a flash drive attached to it when i plug it in, the phone recognizes the flashdrive without problem. As soon as i plug in a second flash drive, the light goes off from the HUB and both of the sticks get unrecognized. Also, the mouse nor the keyboard works through the HUB somehow..
I need to buy a specific hub with OTG support or a power hub perhaps? Could anyone help in this? I looked over google and stuff but people seemed to say different stuff at almost every site.. Thanks!!

Oh well that's quite interesting. Then you're saying this piece of video could be fake perhaps?
Since i can post links yet, search for this on youtube: USB HUB Support On GALAXY S2
Check the very first video.
I'm convinced that the every phone can handle only one device connected at the same time.

Well, it surely doesn't seem that way, that's why i was asking, since it's possible.
Weird.... i got sgs2 and 4-port usb hub and when i connect 2 pendrives to hub and hub to phone everything works good (i see UsbDriveA and UsbDriveB). If your hub have dc input you can try connecting power supply to this hub. Maybe this hub isn't compatibile with your phone.
Hello everyone! I'm new here, thanks for your attention about my topic.
I've just bought an USB OTG (On-the-Go) cable. I connected the Kindle Fire with a wireless mouse and a keyboard via USB OTG cable but nothing happened.
I tried Hashcode 4.2.2 Stock ROM, CyanogenMod 10.1 Stable and even gedeROM 1.7 (CM9) but my effort is zero.
Please help me to find another way to make KIndle Fire works with mouse and keyboard.
Thanks a lot!
Try a powered hub.

Thanks Lotek! I'm going to buy a Powered USB Hub.
(The fact is I don't have a PC or laptop, so I want to make my KF becoming a mini Android computer, lol. :laugh: )
Hello guys, I was wondering if you could help me out
I already have the phone (durr ) and the USB OTG Cable but my doubt is the following:
Can I have the USB OTG connected to the phone and to a Hub at the same time?
[btw:Being one of the ports of the USB Hub a charger and the other ones random stuff (such as mouse, keyboard and so on)]

Pretty sure when in otg mode it will always be a power source and unable to charge but I could be wrong.
My pumpkin head unit will not detect any usb connection be it music or a dab dongle. It used to be ok but for some reason it now doesn't. Can any one please help. Any assistance appreciated
