You are awesome.
yeah, it would be possible to attach any USB device (like on your pc) to the Phone (USB Flash Drive, Keyboard, Mouse, ......... )
cables
I could only find cables in china has anyone seen any for sale in the uk ?
you can make the micro USB to USB 'A' cable with a few bits and a soldering iron or some electrical tape. They seem to be scarce over here so thats what i plan on doing.
i have a "female - female" USB Cable here. if i plug this in my normal micro USB-Cable will this work?
Desire -> Micro-USB-Cable -> Female - Female-USB-Cable -> USB-Keyboard
I ordered from the ebay guy he adivised on his site
@kingchris
Nah this wont work. The reason he uses the powered hub and the special power cable is because the phone itself doesnt give out 5v like a normal USB port so devices are having to steal it from elsewhere.
So with your keyboard setup, the data lines will be connected but it will have no power.
so a normal Micro-USB cable to a USB-HUB and then to the keyboard?

Dont know if you even need the hub. Its the special dual ended power cable you need. Just need some way to pump 5v down towards the keyboard. *i think*

Here a link to a company selling the power cable. Based in Surrey.
i think it will work if you don't plugin as much devices as the guy in the video.
you can use one of these to convert your existing Charging Cable to a Female Port
Amazon.de
or
Amazon.co.uk
Edit: kay, not sure if the gender changer is all you need

You can connect a N2 to a projector with a Samsung MHL cable (most won't work dou to changed pin layout...), but your projector needs to have an HDMI or DVI-D input. VGA is analogue, HDMI digital. You will need a powered converter to connect these. And that's gonna cost you about $100.

what kind of converter i need ...?? can you give me some advice where to find powered converter ??
Found this one on Newegg... If that's not where you live you can always search for 'HDMI to VGA converter'.

I actually bought that exact converter from amazon just a few weeks ago. If I can find an mhl cable here in sacramento today. I'll let you know how or if it works.
Would any micro usb to hdmi adapter work? Or does it have to be specifically that cable?

Well, the N2 uses a special pin layout, so... Yes, it needs to be one specifically for the N2 or S3 (same thing here).

Hello, any knows if you can connect an S3 to one of those old tvs? The tv i have has no HDMI port, only SCART.
Thank you

I don't know about the S3, but I had a Vibrant back in the day, and I bought a cable from radio shack that is typically used to connect older camcorders to TV's, and it would mirror my screen to that input.
It's a 3.5mm jack on one end, to 3 red, white, and yellow RCA cables on the other end. Make sure the 3.5mm jack has 3 black bands on it. One for each audio channel and one for video. I don't know if the functionality is gone, but it was there in the vibrant.
Yes, it's possible.
What you need is a regular MHL adapter (with the 11-to-5 adapter for the S3) and an HDMI-to-SCART converter, such as this one.
Then just link them phone->MHL->converter->TV.

Yes, you need all three items or equivalent ones to be able to look your phone to a SCART port.

i found 2 cable here except one that is HDMI to SCART Converter Adapter. I'm unable to find & buy it in my country. I'm from India, could you plz tell me the other way? I heard here that i should connect my device to old tv directly only with one single cable ( One end has charging slot & the other end have the 3 AV pin red, white, yellow) Plz help
This is quite interesting as I have an old tv, crazy idea about using android on it aswell as whatsapp hhaha

This is misinformed. The only signal that comes from the s3 is Hdmi. You have to buy either a MHL adapter or a smart dock and connect it to an hdmi to SCART adapter like the ones linked in this thread.

You can purchase a MHL to SCART adapter which will save on one product (the HDMI to scart).
Try: amazon-com/HDV-M62S-Micro-USB-Converter-Adapter-MHL-enabled/dp/B00EXMSG98 for an example

That was an example but a quick look on ebay-co-in shows that while the first two items mentioned above are readily available, the third item and the adapter I mentioned are not.
Another convuluted way would be to use MHL -> HDMI -> VGA -> AV -> SCART. HDMI to VGA adapters appear available and there are a few VGA to AV adapters like this one: ebay-in/itm/PC-Laptop-VGA-to-AV-VIDEO-S-VIDEO-TV-Converter-Box-/280546899386.
Unfortuately this may be too difficult or costly once you've got all the parts. Depending on what you want to achieve you could potentially use DLNA to stream the content to a media device connected to your TV with AV/scart inputs. The WDTV boxes appear available on ebay-in.
My Galaxy Nexus isn't charging or connecting to my computer. I've tried different USB ports, wall adapters, and USB cords and nothing. I don't really want to replace the charging port. What can I do?
Thanks in advance.

Delete this thread!
I accidentally put this in the wrong section! Thanks!
Check the charging port for Lent and stuff with a little pin or something..
That's what happened to me in the past
I cleaned it out and start to work again

Of what cujo said didn't work you have no option but to replace the port or buy an external battery charger.

In a pinch you can rig up a temporary charger using the POGO pins on the right side of the phone. Just wire the corresponding red/black wires from a cut up USB cable to the correct pins (you can find the pinouts online). The trick is getting the wires to stay on the pins - you can try packing tape. I know this is kind of a dirty solution, but it will work in an emergency until you can replace the usb port.

Can you link me to the part I need to replace! And a video of how? And how expensive is the part in question? My Galaxy Nexus isn't my main phone but I just wanted it working again.

Well, there is no guarantee that it is the USB board - but you can purchase one on ebay for under $10. The part includes a usb jack as well as a ribbon connector that connects the jack to the main board. There is, however, a chance that you have a faulty main board, in which case, replacing the USB port is not going to fix your problem but the only way to really test that is to buy the part and try it out.

That's for a Verizon Galaxy Nexus, I don't remember which one you said you had but you'll want to be sure to get the right one.

Are you using the original charger that came with the phone? It's the only thing i have luck with.

I ordered the new port! But I tried the pogo port charging and it didn't seem to work.
