[Q] Galaxy Note 2 Desktop dock.

Anyone know if this will work out of the box with the GN? If not would it just require new software or is it hardware incompatible?

I would really love to use this thing if anyone has any idea.

If you mean a basic micro USB dock (like the one here) there's no reason it wouldn't work.

Specifically I mean this one. I like the USB connections and HDMI out. I know that the GN supports MHL and USB host, I just don't know if it all works at once.

* * Cable that does everything smart dock does? OTG USB, HDMI, Charge etc

Hi guys,
I'm interested to know if there's a cable that can do everything that the smart dock does as I don't like the fact I can't use the smart dock in landscape mode.
I want to connect the Note 2 to a screen via HDMI, keep it charged/charging and have a female USB port so I can connect a hub/PS3 controller/Memory stick etc.
Also, I've read online that I may need to root to get all this functionality working?
Sorry if this has been asked before, I'm new to the Android community, just finished using BlackBerry.
Thanks

That's the dream. For now an non existant one...

MHL Adapter (Samsung Official)

Hey guys.
Just a quick one. I have the official Samsung MHL Adapter and it works on the gnex but I have assumed, and I probably shouldn't, that it would work on other late Samsung android models. Doesn't seem to work on the note 2...
Just wondering if anyone has got it to work and if there's one for one and another for another? Which I'm thinking is the case. Sorry if this isn't part of this particular forum just a random question. It "sort" of related to the Gnex haha.
Thanks in advance.

Using S3 MHL cable for S2

Title says it all. I am planning to buy a MHL cable but I realise that S2 and S3 uses different cables. I know S3 can't use S2's.
But can S2 use S3's?

Anyone? Can help?

Have buy 2 cable for my two SII and my SI and not work SII and SI, ROM CM10.1 both phone

MHL won't work on CM ROMs, its part of Touchwiz for Samsung devices that's why I run Shostock3, a very modified and smooth version of stock 4.1.2.
I'm also curious if the S3 MHL cable will work. I'll ask my friend to try out his with my phone this weekend.

I wouldn't recommend you to buy it
Because the s2 will output in low resolution I will recommend you to upgrade to s3 or something to enjoy it

S1 doesn't support MHL it's tv out is done via the earphone jack to RCA jacks.
My MHL cable (one of the ones that is simply micro usb to hdmi) works for both the S2 and S3 but my screen is MHL certified and doesn't require an additional power source where as my old cable needed power plus the mhl but I aint tested that on the S3. According to wiki though it needs a Samsung specific cable which is weird as it works on my mhl screen.

Bought a MHL Cable, the microusb didn't fit with the phone. Any idea what MHL cable does work on this phone?

Any micro usb should work

I bought this and the micro usb won't fit into my s4 mini

I was thinking of buying one of those red cables... If it is micro USB it should fit. Thinking these are cheap Chinese cables. Maybe it has a faulty connector?
I may try a different one like in my attached picture.

S4 mini doesn't support MHL.

Oh... OK. Well that's cleared that up. ?

Looks like im gonna use these cables on my future Note 3 or S5 ?

The s4mini does support mhl but only with a few cables your best go would be an original adapter from Samsung.

Hmm in my mind, no MHL support means any MHL cables (including Samsung's) is considered useless trash isn't it? Also, there isn't any videos or articles talking abt "S4 Mini on TV" and stuff like dat

I always thought it was compatible because of lines I found in the build.prop
#
# System prop for Tvout/HDMI
#
persist.sys.camera.transform=0
persist.sys.camera.connect=0
persist.sys.videomode=0
ro.hdmi.enable=true
But maybe because stock OS for the mini is cannibalised from its big brother S4 it could just be left over crap... I'm gonna bet it's just not going to work. Shame...
