Hi,
i use USB OTG with a USB Hub for Mouse, Keyboard and USB-HDD at the same time. It works. I got now a MHL HDMI adapter. It works. But is it possible to use USB OTG and MHL HDMI together?
BTW: There is a Multimedia Dock from Samsung: EDD-S20JWEGSTA
so it means it is possible both togeter, but i've already my USB OTG and MHL HDMI and wont buy now a extra docking station. Is it possible to use both together ie with an additionally adapter, or so?
TIA
Toby
nobody?

I am interested in hooking up my GN to a monitor along with a mouse and keyboard. I just got bored and thought it would be fun to use my phone as a sort of computer.
I have made my own OTG USB cable and have hooked up everything separately and have full functionality of everything individually. The problem lies in the fact that video out requires a MHL HDMI adaptor... which occupies the USB plug on the phone, my only thought has been to use a USB hub as I don't have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
Before I go tearing up my MHL HDMI adaptor, does anyone know if it is possible to plug the MHL adaptor into the USB hub and have it work? Are there some issues with power that I haven't even considered, since the MHL adaptor has to have its own power and even supplies the phone with electricity when connected?
Its only a $10 part, so I am going to do it if I don't get a solid answer here and will report back if it works.
Thanks
Sorry, no it won't work. When the MHL is plugged in, the USB pins are reconfigured to do the video, USB data can't work simultaneously. The best way is to get bluetooth keyboard and mouse and use the MHL adapter for the video.
Now that my HOX has JB, I'm looking to get a USB OTG cable. However I want to know if there is a way to get say a USB hub to plug into the OTG cable and then connect a MHL cable into the hub to watch films and use a mouse to control it?
Good question. I don't think that will work. It would need to be directly connected to the USB port for MHL output. I don't have a phone with OTG, but as far as I know USB hubs can be used for keyboards, mice, gaming controllers and pen drives (someone correct me if I'm wrong), but not for MHL. You can use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse though, if you want.

Hello. I just received my mhl - hdmi adaptor and it s great. The fact that i have to plug in the charger into the adaptor restricts my movement around the TV. I want to know if i can stream from my galaxy to the TV without having to do that. I wonder if it s possible just to plug the hdmi into the adaptor and then the phone into the adaptor. Thanks !
I have the official samsung mhl cable an it works it mirrors my screen to the tv but is there a way i can connect a mouse an or keyboard with my OTG cable an use a mouse to control the mirrored image of the phone on the tv?
there is a smart dock for the note 2, which has HDMI and USB ports:

And if a dock is not good for you, you can always buy a bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo
Just a quick question, can I use an MHL adapter and a USB stick at the same time?
With a Y cable like this one: (http://originus.samsung.com/us/support/faq/FAQ00023991/24159/) So instead of adding the power, I'll use a OTG with a USB stick.
Thanks in advance!
GN 3 Requires MHL 2.0, different interface

I have used a usb hub with the mhl 2 adaptor and a wireless mouse so there should be no problem using a usb stick as well.
