I bought an adapter for it for like 10 bucks

I didn't know about USB OTG, I was under the impression that simply connecting a mouse, keyboard, etc. from USB A to USB B micro wouldn't work but these seem to be different. Is that right? If so I'll totally buy one. Seems worth it at times to be able to connect a keyboard and/or mouse. I use bluetooth for my PS3 controller right now but this could be beneficial in other ways.

Is there an adapter to have split usb ports? I need to use 2 ports at the same time, or would the function not even work then.

The Skyrocket has a gameklip and it's only 1mm taller and wider, so I ordered one and I will try to remember to comment here again once I have it and can see if it works.

Just hold out a little longer guys. This fall, there will be no less than 5 manufacturers that'll be releasing bluetooth controllers for our phones/tablets.
Just do a Google search for:
PowerA SDK
Nyko NVIDIA Playpad
SteelSeries Ion

[Q] Mhl & usb otg together

i was wondering if i can connect my galaxy note 10.1 to my samsung Smart hdtv tv via Mhl and use usb otg to connect controllers so i can play games on my hdtv with the controllers
did anyone do that before?

Im pretty sure you can use a usbhub or anything like that, connect the MHL and the controller to the MHL and it should work but Im not sure.

Can you elaborate a bit?
Don't the usb otg adapters / hubs connect to the same port as the hdmi adapter would ? And thus far l haven't been able to find nether a hdmi adapter with an usb otg port, nor a usb hub / adapter with hdmi..
Anyone?

Hm thats right, when connecting the OTG it will only recognize it as USB and when connecting the MHL it will only recognize it as MHL.

There is a multimedia dock coming out soon for the s3 that will allow otg and hdmi plug to put your cable into.
There is already one for the note 2 but it doesn't work for the s3 at least that's what the reviews say and also said might work after an update from samsung.

You can always use Bluetooth mouse and keyboard or controller with hdmi. Or you could do allshare cast hub for widi with usb otg devices. It does artifact with more intense games though.

Wow I hope I can get a dock like that for my S3 and/or note 10.1
Thanks for that video.

The note 10.1 is the same internals as the note 2 and s3 so I don't see why one built for the tablet plug wouldn't be possible, I doubt this would work if you tried to connect via usb otg adapter for the 10.1. Hopefully they release one!

Why not use the six access controller app which allows you to tether ps3 controllers wirelessly?
It might also be possible to do similar with xbmc which released in beta today but I've not tested that.

Well what about connecting a usb drive etc. Or use other controllers. For that matter I for one might need to use a wireless mouse... really hope they launch a media dock or something similar.

OTG Cable recommendations

I already have one but whilst it works fine with my Nexus 7 it doesn't work with my Galaxy S3, when I plug it in and also my Samsung portable HDD and stickmount pro it appears to recognise the HDD but i cant view my files so I'm thinking it must be a case of the OTG cable isn't compatible with the Galaxy S3, so I'm wondering if you folks can recommend one for me that works fine.
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

EDIT
The OTG cable works now with my Galaxy S3, just out of curiosity I flashed Siyah kernel again as I remember reading something about ntfs, plugged the HDD in, clicked on stickmount and low and behold I can see all my music, photos, files, etc so I'm delighted the cheap otg cable I bought on Amazon works with both my Galaxy S3 and Nexus 7

The PS3 controller can be bought for 1K-1.5K if you look hard enough.
I doubt many apps are compatible with the PS2 controller, but I cannot say for sure.

It's pointless to invest in a controller if u dnt have the ps3 itself. for mobile gaming only !!
i have my i7 & gtx 650 ti for that already.

I also want to know, becasue I have a XBox controller that I use on my PC and it does not work with my S3...

No, a PS3 controller is able to connect via bluetooth to some phones, including the Galaxy S3 using the sixaxis app.
A PS2 controller won't do that.

As far as I know, XboX 360 controllers can only connect to the S3 via wire, PS3 via wire and Bluetooth (I got one myself). Other controller, no clue but I guess it will be difficult without Sixaxis for other controllers to map the buttons if the game does not support it native.

Can you link the right cable adapter to use to connect a 360 controller to the S3? Is it just a S3 compatible OTG cable? I've only heard of using the ps3 controller, but since I actually have a couple corded 360 controllers I'm quite interested if that's an option.

I read somewhere that you just need a converter wire from your XboX 360 connection to the S3's connector (micro USB?). I bought them quite cheap in an IT mall as it is the same process the first time you connect your PS3 controller to the S3 and those wires are working fine.

Wow that's cool, looks like android will recognize and use the 360 controller with a standard usb-otg cable, I'm surprised no one ever talks about this (I only ever see threads about dualshock and wiimotes). Thanks for the heads up.

[Q] Device that would allow me to connect Nexus to tv?

I don't know if there is a specific micro usb cable to hdmi convertor that I need to get in order to play my Nexus 7 to my tv. I don't remember if I read correctly, but I think I remember there being an article saying the Nexus 7 has a difference in its build, in which it needs a specific device to connect itself to an HDMI tv. Not sure though. If anyone has any recommendations, I would appreciate it. I am basically only trying to look at these avi files on my tablet to a tv.

You need a Slimport adapter (Not MHL which is a different competing technology!). Or get a Miracast adapter there are dongles , and use wireless access).

Unless you're running a CyanogenMod 10.2 build in which case, the
Slimport to HDMI function is not yet supported or working.
