Hi, I was wondering if there's the possibility to plug my kindle fire to my TV through an hdmi-usb cable and if a Rom makes possible this feature...
Thanks
No, sorry.

Umm don't know what he's talking about^^^ but you could have a jellybean ROM flashed on it, and use a microusb to micro HDMI adapter then plug the HDMI cable to your tv

Hey Guys,
Is it in any way possible to connect my Galaxy note to my Samsung tv, so that i can see exactly whats being displayed on the phone screen?
It may be silly, but my 3 year old son wants to play games on the tv with the accelerometer from the phone?
So i thought i could maybe connect the phone to my tv with a usb to hdmi cable, and display whats on the screen on my tv at the same time?
If such a cable exists, could you please point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance...
google for mhl to hdmi
I have one of these...

Works great. Note that unless your TV supports the MHL standard (and very few do), you will have to supply microUSB power to the cable (i.e. using the phone charger).

or check the thread currently 3 posts down from here titled "MHL recommendation"
My TV has a USB socket which provides power so I hook that up so my MHL cable and don't need to bring anymore equipment to the TV (power adapters/battery packs)
After connecting my MHL adaptor and HDMI cable to my TV how do I activate MHL?

plug your charger in the mhl cable to use it.

Make sure your TV is set to hdmi... if all else fails, try another power outlet

You should not have to start anything, make sure you have power to the MHL adapter, plug it in to the phone , make sure the TV's input is set correctly, and plug it in to the TV ... If that does not work , either the ROM you are using is broken, the MHL adapter is broken, the HDMI cable is bad, or the TV input is broken, or some combination there of ......
Wow I didn't even notice this phone didn't have an HDMI settings tab my POS g2x had a few options haha just saying

Oke so here is the question.
is it posible to do a setup with USB to vga/HDMI + keyboard&mous and maybe a USB stik/ExHDD?
all trough micro usb? or is there only 1 posibility that you use UDB to VGA/HDMI and the rest trough bluethoot/wifi?
i need to hook up my phone to my monitor vga port for a product presentation.
i really hope this is posible.
or maybe makeing it posible trough app wize.
sorry for my lack of english,but im in a hurry atm.
You need a mhl adapter...HDMI to MHL to TV.. need power to this cable also that connects to the side of the adapter.

Like above said, MHL to HDMI adapter. You can't connect any USB stick / keyboard or mouse to the phone while connected with the MHL adapter though.

Hi,
Does anybody know if USB OTG works with Hashcode's CM10.1 ?
I tried Chainfire's USB Host Diagnostics, but negative results (I think), see usbhost.chainfire.eu/?search=181340 .
I used this USB Hub (with OTG), see dx.com/p/cy-gt-037-ri-angled-micro-usb-4-port-usb-hub-card-reader-for-samsung-galaxy-s2-i9100-i9200-black-200091
Cheers, S
It doesn't work with stock or CM yet.
If you want an external USB device connectd, you will need a powered USB hub. Did you try that with yours?

AFAIK OTG is disabled in the Kernel, from what hashcode told?!
usb hub is powered

Sorry, as a newb I'm not allowed to post external links. This is the USB hub I bought.
"CY GT-037-RI Angled Micro USB 4-Port USB Hub + Card Reader for Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 i9200 - Black"
It is powered by sub, if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah I saw it.. but did you actually power it?
I've read posts of people do just this and it work for them.

I did plug the power usb cable into my PC. It made the usb hub shine blueishly. My guess that means it is powered.
Can you point me to posts either claiming success or stating it isn't possible? I don't seem to be able to find them on xda.

Thanks, but that is the Kindle Fire 2. I meant the Kindle Fire HD 8.9 .
I'm looking for an MHL cable which allows:
Full HD hdmi output
Charge the phone while in use
Can still use USB OTG to connect a keyboard/mouse dongle
Is this even possible?

Works fine for me.
I don't know about the keyboard part, but that shouldn't be a problem I assume.
This particular one is sold out, but shouldn't be hard to find someone else that sells the same. Only bad part is that the power cable part is short.
Thanks!
Meanwhile I found these:
http://m.ebay.com/itm/271566140891
I'm tempted to buy one, and see if they work.
Im wondering if we can output 1080p since z3c screen is only 720p
I'm amazed with this phone. Just tested a USB Ethernet dongle and it worked flawlessly out of the box.

z3c can output 4k videos over mhl, phone screen resolution has nothing to do with it

If your TV has an MHL port, passive MHL cable and you have an adapter, the extra micro usb on the adapter should be ok for USB OTG.
Sorry, but this a dumb, MHL noob question. Will any old micro-usb MHL adapter work, or do I need one specifically for a Sony phone or something?
Thanks
