Could you please post your experience with any Slimport adapters tested with the G Pad?
I know the Cable Matters brand (from Amazon) works, there is a Youtube review posted on it.
Would be interested in seeing what other brands work and which is the best.
Thanks
link amazon please ?

This one is guaranteed to work.

Got myself one of these from the eBays:

Will test it when it arrives and report back.

The adapter listed above from Amazon is the one I got and it works great. The only issue is that it charges the tablet slower, but it does charge while I am using it.
Sent from my LG-V500 using xda app-developers app
The one from amazon does not ship to Europe and the HDMI out is one of the many reasons I bought this tablet damn.
Any good alternatives that are tested and ship to Europe?
Well, I bought this one from Amazon France, originally for my Nexus 4, and it works flawlessly with my Gpad :

I don't know if it ships to Italy or anywhere else in Europe, but I think it does.

Thank you very much for your answer mate. They do ship it in Greece but yikes 30euros without shipping, that hurts bad.
The one I got from eBay above STILL hasn't arrived after five weeks (they said it should arrive today or tomorrow)... Once it does I'll review it for everyone. Here's hoping!

From amazon.fr search "SlimPort-femelle-Adaptateur-Optimus-Infinity+hdmi+nexus+4"
I chose the first! for Euro 16,95
This I have already caught myself and it works perfectly, the price was good and the quality of the materials too! :good:
Tested the adapter and ..... works perfectly on my Nexus 4 and on the loving G Pad 8.3.
The immediate mirroring ok , do not activate anything, except to verify that the entry of the external monitor on, and set to HDMI. Video and audio are perfect and there is no lag, maximum fluidity and faithful reproduction of what is happening on the screen of the G Pad , I tried a video and I sailed a bit ' in WIFI sitting on the couch.
I do not play , but I am convinced that for some passionate playing on a giant screen could be a "must have"
For remote control , there are several options , including:
- Bluetooth keyboard and mouse ;
- App for Android smartphones as " Tablet remote" , either via bluetooth (the one I 'm using ) and via WIFI ;
- Mousepade mini keyboard with integrated bluetooth as always RII or RII MINI MINI I8 ELEGANCE with Italian layout ;
- Joystick or gamepad bluetooth.
On the net you will find various models , at prices affordable even .
Unfortunately, this side of the adapter port microusb myDP only allows you to power your device while mirroring, and not to accept a USB OTG adapter ( tried but it does not work , at least in this model), but I think it is a very common problem (maybe because that port was enabled only for the voltage and not for data ), and we must be satisfied that performs its function very well.
I remember that during the G Pad mirrored by SLIMPORT not require any power supply (optional) for proper operation , while for devices that use the MHL format (like many Samsung ) was mandatory .
This mode , however, was to be preferred to that of type " miracast " , more expensive , less fluid and problematic.
I think that with an additional HDMI to VGA or HDMI to DVI interface you can also safely projectors in case you need to make presentations in a professional field .
See you soon friends.

I just went and bought the one on the link above(just correct the ebay dot com to see it).
It actually states in the product description that it works with the LG G Pad. I ll post back when I receive but I guess its gonna take some time.
Working Slimport to HDMI Cable
I bought one in Hong Kong !
It's NOT an Adapter, it's a direct micro USB to HDMI male plug Cable !!! with optional micro usb plug for charging !!!
HKD - $200 = around USD $25 - 26
It works on my LG G Pad with the CM 11 nightly cm-11-20140119-NIGHTLY-v500.zip ROM
for french customers
if you look for this slimport (1.8M SlimPort / MYDP vers HDMI femelle Adaptateur pour Google Nexus 4 E960/ Google Nexus 7 2103/ LG Optimus G Pro / Fujitsu Arrows Tab / Asus Padfone Infinity) for an example have a look to different sellers, amazon : 17€95, priceminister : 10€56. free shipping for both sites. it has the advantage to have a male interface for hdmi.
I bought one from here
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Slimport-My...exus-5-4-7-II-2013-LG-E960-D820-/181285491912
Do not buy this adapter. There is a delay/lag from Gpad to HDMI and while the seller specifically states it works with the GPad it doesn't charge the tablet sufficiently. While using it (I have tested it while mirroring and also with HDMI male port unplugged) the Gpad will slowly discharge despite showing as charging on the tablet. When plugged into my HTC one (which is MHL naturally not Slimport) it reports as slow charging so its not just the Gpad causing the problem.
Pissed off now after waiting weeks for delivery. Will attempt to get a replacement that actually works from the ebayer and will shout back if its the same story as the 1st.
amazon.co.uk/SlimPort-Adapter-Converter-Google-optimus/dp/B00EZ2MN68/ref=sr_1_14?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1390559286&sr=1-14&keywords=Slimport
is that the same tha you got MetalmanIX
Just an update on the ebay Slimport seller I bought mine from. They declared it faulty and offered a refund straight away. In my suspicious mind that says either they are out of stock (which they are not as they are still selling) or they have no confidence in their product that a replacement would charge the LG Gpad. Won't be buying from them again.
And an update on mine - it never arrived. The vendor responded quickly to my communications but it hasn't shown up after the expected arrival time. Good on the vendor to quickly refund my purchase. If it suddenly DOES arrive I'll let y'all know.

For those interest mine arrived today and with a few minutes of testing it looks like its working perfectly!
Also, took only 17 days to arrive from Hong Kong to Europe(Greece).
On the downside, this guy just doubled the price of it!!!!! I bought it for 15.28USD and its now selling it for 35.28USD!!!!
Such a shame.

Too bad they don't have the keyboard case either. Makes me wish THAT was a motorola product.
I was also confused about the shipping since when you add the item to the cart it says you can get free two day shipping and to select that option at checkout, but it still charges you for it.
cool, still worked, but not many accessories. Such as car charger, other gel case colors, etc. But otherwise I will try at a STD dock to hack and a keyboard for that price.

really ? How can you get that price cause original price for:

=> total is $250 - 50% off = $125 ( not include tax yet)
they take off an extra 50.00 because the keyboard is a bluetooth accessory

thank for pointing that out, this deal is almost 75% off . order mine too
Wow, pretty nice deal. I want another AC adapter so I went to see how much it would be. Check this out:
$29.99 adapter
-$15.00 coupon XOOMAC50
+ $4.00 shipping
+ $1.33 tax
---------
$20.32 total
Now, if I just go to Amazon and look for the same product I can get it for:
$15.99 adapter
$4.48 shipping
---------
$20.47 total
... almost the same price. Too bad the coupon code wouldn't work on that one.
I looked around to find out more about the "Camera Kit Adapter". From what I can tell, this is an OTG cable and as long as you have Honeycomb 3.1, you can use it to connect a mouse, keyboard or game controller to your Xoom. However, you will not be able to connect a USB flash drive because the USB Host interface does not have the software support for USB-keys. A rooted Xoom with a custom kernel (I assume... but maybe custom ROM too?) may be able to support flash drives. Motorola may also add it in at a later date too.
Can anyone confirm or deny any of this?
I ordered an OTG cable from eBay, but of course it will be a few weeks before I see it, so I was thinking about ordering this too.

I currently use a flash drive on my Xoom. I'm using a custom Tiamet kernel and I'm rooted. It works awesome. I carry my Music and N64 ROM's.
Anyone know how the additional $50 off promotion works? I can only get it to work with the keyboard, but I already have one (which I dont need anymore anyway since I got the verizon folio keyboard case). I tried a set of bluetooth headphones, thinking it might be a "bluetooth" deal, but it didn't work.

Is it possible to attach a BT trackball/keyboard without a dongle, or somehow use an other adapter I can attach (possible by a double adapter)
Once connected to my TV the only way to change any input is via the Note.

Hi Purchased from Amazon UK (seller was Amazon)http://http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0051D3KKI/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 actual price £23.55 but now looks like Amazon have suspended that item until they review a complaint, suggest you keep an eye on that link.
Surprised No has been able to answer my question regarding BT trackball!!!
If its a BT track ball I would think it will hook up just fine, same way a BT mouse would.
Just to let you know if you are in the UK with a HMV store nearby you can get these for £10. Picked up a couple last week.

Hi which one do you have, how do you connect it to the tablet, I assume its just Bluetooth no dongle, thanks.:good:
Simple the original one:
http://www.amazon.de/PlayStation-Du...HY/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1362585611&sr=8-10
bought it when it was on amazon for 35€ incl. shipping!!! nice deal i thought. I do connect it with the app "sixaxxis" (bluetooth). Requires root though, but pretty nice app. Now i can play all the games of my childhood: zelda (oot, n64), tekken (psx) without the need to install the damn ugly consoles in my living room .. thats just awesome!!
After installing the app I noticed that you can emulate a mouse. That is very useful to me for streaming movies from my server, look something up on imdb and so on with the hdmi adapter...
any more questions? ?

Thanks, not rooted, do not want to go in that direction, so am I correct in assuming you can only connect bt directly to tablet when you root it, otherwise I need a dongle??
So no way of having it connect to bt when using the hdmi adapter, bummer.
Question: Is the HDMI output lag-free, do the homescreens run smooth and is the image quality okay?
I just sent back the wireless allshare adapter because the streamed image has 15FPS when not buffered, the quality is worse than i expected and it ends every multitasking capability of the Note.

Well, keep in mind the ASCD won't mess with the resolution or color depth of the image displayed on the LCD, so if you see video quality issues (bad scaling or graininess or such) it's likely due to what your TV does with the not-quite 720P resolution of the signal from the Note 10.1 (1280x720 isn't a native resolution of most monitors and likely scales it to 1366x768), so I'm betting that the picture via the HDMI hard-wired cable will look the same (on static images) as did the picture from the ASCD.

New 2013 model of HDTV Adapter?
I'm shopping around for an HDTV Adapter for my GT-N8010 at the moment, and I've noticed that several online shops are advertising a new 2013 model - EPL-NPHPBKG.
e.g. - www dot amazon dot com /Original-Samsung-Genuine-EPL-NPHPBKG-EPL-3PHPBEG/dp/B00B8NJ6E4
They claim that it is the next verson of EPL-3PHPBEG (the model that this thread is about). Does anyone know what the difference is? The only thing I can see that might be an improvement is "Simultaneously charge your Galaxy Note 10.1 while streaming". I've seen reports on other threads about their tablet not charging while plugged in to the HDTV adapter. Can you confirm if this functionality exists on your EPL-3PHP?

Ah. See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2166540
Hi,
I dont know the id of my hdtv adapter but as far as i own it since the early days of my previous tab 10.1 (p7500) I am pretty sure it's the "old" one.
I can confirm the adapter is definetly charging my n8000 while connected to my tv behind the docking station (universal samsung), streaming .mkv from my ubuntu desktop / server machine and being controlley by emulated mouse with my ps3 gamepad (via sixaxxis).
Sure you won't win a speed challange with that configuration but the main point is it is charging. I guess about ~ 2..3 % / 0,5..1,0 h (never did a measurement ) but still charging. Thats pretty nice because sometimes when I come home from university and the battery is nearly empty (sometimes 2 days of usage with a single charge) I plug my note into the docking station, let it charge to 3 or 4 %, turn it on and start streaming. When I end the day and shut down the tv the note is at about ~10% and ready to get charged the whole night.

Looks good!
Update, just purchased apple Magic Trackpad looks like it works on my Tablet, No Dongle just Pin number input for connecting, so in theory I will be able to use it to control Note 10.1 whilst connected via HDMI adapter to TV, will confirm when it arrives this week.
Just received my EPL-3PHPBEG from Expansys. It was not the most expensive, but dirt cheap either. It works. It says it is for the Tab 10. The price on this seems to vary wildly with the cheaper ones (19-25$) all seeming to be out of stock, except today went back to Amazon and the Zeeestmm version now seems to be in stock and going for 29.00$
It works for my purpose - Powerpoint and other document projection. It does need to be powered, and the tab needs to be rebooted at least for the projector to recognize it. So it's working fine on my Tab Note 10.1.
What chaps me about Samsung, it the myriad of numbers and letters, all a bit different, but all seeming to be the same item. I thought it was bad with the phones and tabs, but it is beyond annoying with accessories.

Thanks for the reminder. Probably the image will look not better than before. However, it was not a difficult decision why i sent the Allshare Cast Hub back to amazon. For 60€ it's just to much for what it would have been for me. Ending all MultiWindow possibilities is probably the worst part. Well, with the HDMI cable i won't be able to connect USB anymore .. so everything has pros and cons. For what it offers, the wireless adapter was just too expensive and i was really annoyed that it was never remarked on ANY website i read that it ends multitasking features of the Note 10.1.
Has anyone tried to connect their G4 with Slimport? I contacted LG customer service to see if they endorse a specific brand and they sent me a google search for "SlimPort" (which was very helpful /S). I purchased this one from amazon and I can not get a clear picture for more than a few seconds, even though it shows support for the G4. If you go to the official Slimport site it leads you to this amazon link for the SP1004 which is "Currently unavailable".
I am trying to connect my G4 to my AppRadio2 car stereo. I was able to connect my Note3 just fine using MHL but finding the right MHL adapter was a pain as well.

If you go to the official Slimport site it leads you to this amazon link for the SP1004 which is "Currently unavailable".
I am trying to connect my G4 to my AppRadio2 car stereo. I was able to connect my Note3 just fine using MHL but finding the right MHL adapter was a pain as well.

You're not alone! I spent the weeks trying to get SlimPort to work on my G4. Bought three different dongles from amazon. These are all made in China but the first two were the cheap and nasty types. You will know the type. They are all basically the same inside and they usually rattle. One wouldn't charge the phone (Slimport works without a charger), and the picture flickered. The other charged OK but the sound was intermittent. Bite the bullet, as I had to, and buy the brand Slimport. It costs three times as much, also Chinese, but the quality is apparent. Two points to note:
Picture and sound are now perfect on different HD TV but flicker on HD monitor. The monitor is fine with Samsung S4 and HTC M8, different mhl dongles.
I therefore must assume that the standard G4, in standard setup, can only drive a TV.
If anyone knows different please drop me a line.
Ridiculous but I'm considering buying a 24 inch TV to use as monitor on my desk!

Where did you get your SlimPort?
Funny timing with the start of this thread. I stayed in a Hotel last night and was using my CableMatters Slimport adapter on my Nexus 7 (2013), had some issues with the wifi so I hooked up my G4 to see if it would work. The G4 worked beautifully with Slimport for Video, accept that audio didn't get redirected to the HDMI cable, only video.
This is the cable I have CableMatters Slimport 6ft Adapter

Or you can pay through the nose and pay the inflated price for the Official Slimport to HDMI adapter.
Then you'll get solid HD sound and video, although only on TV, as I found out.
Not on an HD monitor.

Also, since you didn't get the subtle hint, it's part of ettiquette here on xda to press the Thanks button!
You are welcome.
I ended up getting a ScreenBeam Mini 2, it connects great and it is wireless!
Slimport now faultless

Thank you Kevin for telling us about ScreenBeam Mini2.
Does that require a router and a telephone line? If so then Slimport which doesn't need a router (or external power) is the only option.
With good 4G coverage here I gave up the land line a few years ago. The LG G4 now acts as the router (ditto HTC M8 & Samsung S4 before it) providing web access to smart TVs and Android tablet.
Without a router, the phone can't be projected to a TV using ChromeCast dongle (connected to the same TV), rendering my ChromeCast useless.
Update for readers here, after some initial bedding-in the original branded Slimport dongle has been working flawlessly.
It can drive a 65" TV or a 24" HD desk monitor. Avoid cheap copies, buy the original and you won't regret it.
I have the Kanex Slimport adaptor and it works flawlessly. Sound and images are perfect and the response time is nice and quick too.
I bought it from Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kanex-Slimport-to-HDMI-Adapter-White/dp/B00E0EER2E
It isn't a cheap one, but it does work. Never had any problems with it. Used it with my Nexus 7 2013 and with the G4.
The only thing I do have a problem with is whether it works with 4K or not. I can't get it to work, but I guess that isn't a major issue for most atm.

Connect LG G4 to TV/display with new SlimPort NANO.CONSOLE
Greetings from SlimPort Support. The way to connect the LG G4 to a TV or display is with a SlimPort HDMI adapter or dock. There is a new product called the SlimPort NANO.CONSOLE that just launched on Indiegogo – it lets you connect your LG G4 to the big screen (at up to 4K Ultra HD 2160p, because the LG G4 supports 4K video-out), simultaneously charge your LG G4, and remotely control your LG G4 with the included Bluetooth Smart touchpad remote. It’s really useful and plug-and-play easy to set up and use. Please check it out on Indiegogo by searching on "NANO.CONSOLE".
Thank you!
All of us know that Type c to 3.5mm jack converter is not included in the box and i want to know that from where i'll buy it on oneplus.in it is out of stock & on Amazon some cheap companies selling it at high price. other than this the best substitutes out in the market.
[Update]
Purchased original one from Aliexpress arround INR250 and oneplus.in showing INR420
Buy it from any local shop. It will be much cheaper.
Take your earphones and test them on the spot (with mic/calling).
Regards
This bugged out even me. From what I've found out this adaptor has been out of stock for a very long time from the official oneplus store (There have been several complaints about it as this is something that is prone to breaking and getting lost).
In order to get them offline I tried getting in touch with the oneplus experience store. I tried calling them multiple times they but they never picked up. So then I went to the store personally only to find it was out of stock, and would take at least 2 weeks for them to get it back in stock(If that happens).
Then I tried my luck with multiple local stores but none of them had it.
Now, getting to the important part. I've been researching about it for a while now and might've finally found an adaptor which would most likely perform on par when compared to the stock oneplus adaptor and is of good quality. It's the Mi adaptor.
For Indian costumers: We can use Sharesave App to get the adaptor.

This Sharesave App seems to have delay in shipping and has bad reviews in play store. any other good brand to go with? in Amazon or flipkart.
I got a local one from local vendor from here for just 90rs is like a dollar and its working exactly same as the original one. Just dont go for apple and google ones rest anything you can buy.

I have the Mi adaptor and can confirm that it works perfectly with Oneplus 7 and the sound quality via earphones is as good as my OP6 with 3.5mm jack. I got the adaptor from Xiaomi Store for only 10RMB (around 100 INR) while visiting China 2 months back.
Ordered from eBay some cheap cables. As soon as I get them, I will let you know. They are advertised to work with OnePlus 6T, 7, 7 Pro. I can't see a reason why it won't work since OnePlus 7 has an analog connection, DAC is inside, unlike other phones that has digital one. It's like before, when the phone had a jack 3.5mm, only now the connector is different.
I got this from Amazon :
https://www.amazon.in/dp/B07T3V8LTM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_2zknDb9N1375W
However, others are not able to hear me talk while using the headset's mic.
It's way too low they say.
I use Sennheiser cx275 s. I've been using it fine since 3 years. I tried the adaptor with another headset. Same observation.
Is anyone else facing any issue when using the headset mic connected to adaptors?
I bought a local adaptor but i was barely able to hear anything the other person was speaking and it was the same on the other end too.
Official Oneplus 3.5mm to USB was available in stock yesterday and day before but now i see its out of stock. I did order one yesterday and should receive it tomorrow.
I saw it in stock about a week ago. And it was in stock till yesterday, I guess. I have my 6T's adapter which works just fine on the 7. But ordered another one, just in case.

Bro.. i m new to this forum kinda things hence if any issues found please ignore & sorry for late replyin
What kinda earphone you are looking for .... if in-ear earphones is your priority then purchase a connector of oneplus only as the sound quality delivered is very good and also it is very good in quality and usage.
If in-ear earphone is not your concern then buy LETV earphones with usb type C ( which is white in colour ) which is very good in quality far more better than oneplus bullets and it has Led light in its earphone which is an added advantage ( it looks very Unique ).
Hope i solved your query ..
Cheers:good:
I ordered a Type C to 3.5mm Jack Adapter today from Oneplus.in,
So anyone in India can check out oneplus.in as it might be still available on oneplus.in

Yes. Same issue.
Tried different adapters, different headsets.
Tried the DAC adapter too.
One common issue across all adapters is that the opposite person gets to listen to me in very low volume.
This is a big big problem. Still trying to find a solution.
