HDMI dock

As you my know there is no Hdmi dock for our 10.1 thats not really the truth. There was a post about using the center part of the 7 tab dock and some post-it notes as a work around well I ordered the 10" dock not knowing the it didnt have the Hdmi port, I was pissed, why in the hell do you have a multimedia dock with no Hdmi port.. So after seeing the video of the 7" dock I discovered that the center part will swap with the 10" dock that doesn't have the Hdmi port and now I have a real Hdmi dock...
P.s. you have to have the the power plugged in to the dock for the Hdmi to work.....

i totally agree that the dock without HDMI is just stupid. Just another way making us buy more **** a la apple-style.
Nice workaround' but how much was the total?

Yes you add the cost of the second dock but if you look around you can find used docks or other ways around this but thats not on the up and up, even tho samsung hosed us.....

as in the video does ur hdmi output crop the mirroring also?

Nope i think that was that guys TV mine is fine but i do have display settings on my TV...

so did you have to break the dock or anything to swap the parts? this has me interested but want to know what I am getting myself into lol

No the 7" dock comes in two pieces and the 10" dock pops right apart..

I think the fact that it so easy and it goes right together is what piss me off so much why not just sell this to start......

hahah that is awesome, least I know I can get full HDMI dock now for about 60$
thanks for all the info

And by the way i only paid $28 for the 7" dock at the veizon store...and make sure you get the two part style .... there is a all in one dock for the 7" you dont want that.

do you have a part number?
EDIT: I am 99% sure it is ECR-D980BEGSTA least newegg pics show it in two pieces and that is the model on there.

And fyI for anyone that doesn't already have the official hdmi connector is 40 bucks so this maybe a cheaper alternative that they don't want us know about and this is the only way to charger and watch HDMI.....

And Best part is that its out of stock lol....

here is the best deal I can find on the 7 inch dock

I'm not sure how reliable this site is http://www.cellularaccessory.com/epl-3phpbegsta.html , but its $27. I checked the local best buy and they did not have the usb or hdmi adapters.
This place had it for $20, http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...ies.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-10-1-hdtv-adapter/, but it looks like they took it down, but you can see by the cached copy that it was there.

Hi.
Seems there is a 10.1 part released.
Amazon
amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Desktop-Dock-EDD-D1B1BEGXAR/dp/B0055193D4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1312129532&sr=8-1
Newegg.
newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834992792

That's the whole point of this thread there is no hdmi connector in that dock you have to purchase a separate 40 dollar piece that is currently unavailable at this time..

Sorry got confused.
Because it said on the newegg specs.
Port specs
3.5mm Stereo Audio Line-out
HDMI Output
30-pin Dock connecto

It's all good I saw the ad thought I can get the dock with a connector I was very pissed when i found out it did not have the hdmi connector

yeah I bought the 10.1 dock as well from new egg and they had it listed as the HDMI dock. When I got it I was pretty disappointed I even ordered the HDMI cable as well. Went to buy the 7 from new egg and they wanted nearly 60 bucks for it. So I ordered the e-bay version. Thanks for the tip.

they blotted out the HDMI port.

Please Hit Thanks if this helps you out!

That would be handy. We have a home unit I could use this with.
Thanks!

Use code HOLIDAY15 for 15% off. Takes the total down around $5.
Yeah I originally bought the audio only version but Just ordered the combo so I'd have one less thing to take up my cigarette lighter adapters. Gonna gift the old cable as it still looks and works like brand new. P.S. they are pretty fast shipping wise as well.

I want to get this for my Volvo but not sure if it will work. My Volvo Ipod adapter plays the playlists on the ipod, and I'm able to play slacker. ANyone think this will work with a Volvo ipod kit?

They only list the VW and Audi as not Compatible. I think you'll be fine. Either way if it doesn't work it won't be hard to return or resell.

Neat, I will definitely think about getting this
Here's hoping you're not a spammer! (Kind of a suspicious post honestly)

argh they are sold out

Serves me right to be called a spammer lol. I switched to iPhone with the iPhone 4 and just came back to android for the Galaxy 2. Since I switched everything for iPhone I had to find a way to get my new Galaxy II hooked to all my docks and car kits I spent hundreds on. Buy or do not buy, but I have been hanging around here since 2007 and thought it was about time I contribute.

I've been using a female dock adapter I picked up from Deal Extreme, but it picks up electric interference when I use it in the car. Anybody else experience this?

I haven't had any of that out of the audio only adapter I have. (the one on top) The charging and audio adapter arrives tomorrow hopefully, so I'll let you know after I've had a chance to test.

Yes... thanks. I need one of these.

Well it ended up being at home waiting for me yesterday. I can report that with power and audio I have no feedback or noise in the background. Just clear music. I think those other systems just aren't grounded as well. Hope this helps your decision.

Wow this is awesome! Pure madness
I wonder whether any other phone able to do this besides our SIII...

Old 7day shop USB hub worked for me with OTG ... keyboard, mouse, and memory stick. Gonna try it with powered hard drive next
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA

nice! if it only had hdmi out too. But I dont think the micro usb slot can handle otg and mhl simultaneously.

This in conjunction with the WiFi Display Hub will be fantastic.

OTG has been around for a while now....
Here's me rocking it on my S2.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCrecOR34Fs&feature=g-upl

I know Samsung made the 11 pin micro USB to use MHL and OTG accessories the same time because it was impossible before, and everyone says you can't use both over a normal hub so when the Hell is Samsung gonna release an accessory to do that, because they have delays on Allshare cast, MHL converter adapter(in some countries) and you can't game on Tv with wired controller, mouse, keyboard etc until Samsung bother to release it all, I mean I'm really getting pissed off having a phone capable of so much but right now just feels like an S2 with a bigger screen.

I got the connection kit for the Galaxy S3, it is infact made for the Galaxy S2, but works perfectly fine on the Galaxy S3.
Here is a review I did of it and the MHL adaptor. Sadly they didn't work together(one can wish)
http://geektech.ie/index.php/review-galaxy-s3-accessories/

So that HDMI adapter not work with Connection kit?

Some please answer the above question. I want to use the microusb port to charge the phone and still use the other ports for mouse/keyboard/flashdrive/etc.
Also, it looks awkward to have large thing hanging off the phone so will this still work through a microusb extension cable?

Can you confirm that you can use one usb port to charge the phone while using the other port for OTG? I recently asked this question on MobileFun's video on this product and someone seemingly from the company says it can't.

Digital Audio Speaker Docks for Jellybean/Galaxy Nexus

Do these exist? I remember reading this article a month or two ago about jelly bean allowing digital audio over USB so there should be full docks now.
Anyone know of some good ones?

Hi kenjiwing, the standard SAMSUNG POGO pin dock for the GNEX,

outputs digital audio via the 3.5mm jack at the rear of the dock.
It output's optical as well as standard analog (non-optical) digital using the appropriate cable.
You of course also get standard line out for hooking up straight to an amp. The socket at the rear is not a headphone jack as so many reviews have called it. And no one to my knowledge has mentioned it can output optical digital.
I'm not sure if this answers your question. At the very least you might be more informed about what this dock can do. Optical digital from your phone? Amazing stuff.
Have fun. Anil

the one the OP is talking about plays audio over USB and can technically be used for any device where as the dock is specific to the nexus

Hi rptw, correct me if I'm wrong but this is the Galaxy Nexus Accessories forum, right? So hence my suggestion was purely for that device.
Perhaps the OP might get a more general answer posting a question in the general ANDROID Q&A forum, probably.
But still, optical digital audio from the dock for my phone. You have to agree, it's pretty incredible.
Have fun. Anil

I have two different USB DAC at home. I verified that Jelly Bean update did not bring USB DAC capability to the Galaxy Nexus yet.

Is it something we could make? Like hack up a usb cable and connect it to a jack.
I saw when they announced this. It's good news it would be great to have universal audio docks.
Also this isn't the first time this has been avalible. My g1 didn't have a 3.5mm jack. You had to buy micro usb headsets and female 3.5mm jacks. They worked on my HTC hero too.

There are these docks
AS111
AS140
AS351
AS851
I know it isn't audio over USB rather over BT and uses USB to charge but still they are pretty good looking docks

That's because it has to be made specifically for are phone.

The kernel could have supported USB DAC to make generic DAC work. Works out of the box with SGS3.

docking station

hi,
has anyone found a usable docking station for the opo?
all my docking stations that i have don't fit since the opo has the mini usb port in backwards %)
any suggestions?
thanks.
cheers,

Sent from my LG-V500 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

They are out there. A quick eBay AU search (located near Melbourne):
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/OnePlus-...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item3ce05c5e25
So there must be more out there!

free postage - I highly doubt that if I would ordered it (to Germany) but yeah - something like that. Now i just have to find a less geographically challenging solution.
But thanks for the suggestion.
cheers

EverDock
There is a company called EverDock that was on KickStarter, it features a DOCK where you can switch the plug from forward or reverse, plus you can either use it for Iphone, Ipad, Android Mini USB. There is also a dock they sell that allows two devices to be charged at one time. Here is a link

either way you can see you can use it for different products. I hope this helps. I have the single one.

Any docks made specifically for OPO?
That would be awesome. Been looking for that.
An ideal one would be made out of bamboo, and with bamboo back cover...

I really dunno if this works, but I found a suggestion in another forum: http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00JGRIKOQ/ there I was told this works with the OPO, too.

That one breaks really easily. I've gone through 2 already (removing the phone from the dock eventually breaks the pegs that holds the cable in place).
I ordered this one and like it so far: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009L6AHLQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Can you tell me what exactly breaks on this docking station? which pegs? why at the cable? the cable is on the backside, how does something break there when the phone is being removed?

BTW, stations for the HTC One M8 should be compatible I was told. Has anyone experiences with this?
could this be an alternative?
http://www.amazon.de/Emartbuy®-Funktion-kompatibel-Docking-Ladegerät/dp/B00KC0X98I
or such a universal usb docking station - as long as the usb plug has the right direction?
like http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00JFLV3KG/ref=nosim/andrhilfdeand-21 or http://www.ebay.de/itm/Universal-Do...e-Nexus-5-HTC-Desire-S-Desire-Z-/400802464581
Or is there more to watch out like angle of the plug or the distance to the backside?

Try this one.. It is compatible with OnePlus One.. i have been using this for the past 2 days without problem

it looks like the one from above: http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00JGRIKOQ/
but I am not sure: where does the phone have íts secure stand? Is the phone held by the usb connector only? My last shown examples above have a higher back, which can hold the phone very secure and protect the usb connector against the pressure when using the phone in the dock.

Check out the Lambda-Dock. The connector can be turned and its produced in germany...
