[Q] Galaxy Tab 10.1 VGA Adapter

I'm waiting for Galaxy Tab 10.1 to be released in order to buy one, but I need to know is there any idea if there is a VGA adapter to connect it to TV via VGA and display presentations on TV. I know that there is HDMI Adapter, but for iPAD2 there is a VGA adapter.
I really appreciates your help

You could get an HDMI > DVI adaptor then use a DVI > VGA adaptor.

Im not sure that would work.
There are (at least) 2 specs for DVI - DVI-A (Analogue) and DVI-D (Digital) .
HDMI > DVI-D is possible, but AFAIK, HDMI > DVI-A is not, since the output device (your Tab) would need to support analogue signals. For the same reason, you wouldn't be able use a HDMI > VGA adapter.
Im almost certain that the tab does not support analogue timings but you never know.
If it's for work and you're not spending your own money, see if they will buy a converter box for "all those people" who need to use it That's the only way to be sure it will work.

There already exists a cable that plugs into the Samsung proprietary port that outputs an analogue signal through a composite video connector (and stereo RCA plugs for audio). Samsung reps have confirmed that this cable, released for the original Galaxy Tab, will work 100% with the 10.1v and 10.1 (by implication probably the 8.9 too).

Composite to VGA won't work as it has different timings.
Best you can do is something that converts HDMI to VGA by some integrated solution, e.g., HDfury - HDMI to VGA cable, see their forum. Unfortunately you need another extra adaptor to fit the propriatory Galaxy connector. Plus extra power supply for the HDfury (and probably for the Galaxy Tab as well).
This is a deal breaker for all teachers and students that often have to show their content over VGA beamer. Bummer.

@pibach -> thanks for your input, clear, concise and accurate.
I'm on the market for a 10"/HC tablet that has "native" VGA output capability (as in dock connector<->VGA) that would not require an external/powered adapter.
Anyone knows of such rarity?
I have a tattoo/Click, Desire, Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab, so I'm totally addicted to Android. But failing this basic pre-requisite for Corporate environment is a fail in my book and would force me to put my money on the iPad2 despite the shortcomings(including the no-jailbreak current status). Don't get me wrong, I have no trolling intention: I have simple business needs that must be met...
So if you know of any such HC tablet, please let us know.
Cheers,

And you are not the only one. I'm getting 10.1v tomorrow, and hoping that there will be VGA adapter available one day. But for time being HDMI will do.

I just bought one too and I'm really pissed off there's no way to use it for work
even the ipad can output vga :S

i was able to get "something" using HP's hdmi -> vga adapter
Unfortunately, green was missing. Could have been the cable provided locally. If someone is successful in connecting to a VGA projector, let me know.
[Even with proper colors, the need for two dongles and AC power make the GT unsuitable for presentations.]
Anyone knows if Samsung or a 3rd party is working on something?

i'd really like to know that too...

hdmi to vga adaptors
check out HDFURY, expensive but probably good quality
I ended up taking a risk buying a $40 one from chinabuye @ chinabuye.com/hdmi-to-vga-and-3-5mm-audio-converter
works fine, been using it to connect my media player to a comp monitor.

hi guys,
can anyone confirm that there is no official/unofficial available vga adapter for the gtab 10.1?
options that I have seen are those that typically require a separate power supply, which defeats the purpose of having a tablet for mobility purposes.
appreciate any advice!!

unfortunately no, and it doesn't seem samsung is working on it :/

wow.....that sucks.....
this really eliminates the Gtab 10.1 as a useful work/office companion since most enterprises still use vga projectors.....
thanks for the help...cheers.

exactly, I was planning to use it for presentations :/

Did anyone tried this adapter?
http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/computer/categories/cables/1/accessories/NP031AA%23ABA
It seems it doesnt have a power source, it would be portable enough if it was the case

Yes. I could get something on the projector. Colors were off. I didn't have the time to check all connections. But even if it were working, having to rely on AC to power the HDMI dongle makes little sense.
In a pinch, you may want to use http://app.mightymeeting.com/index.html . You'll need a local machine and decent internet connectivity, but you gain mobility in the room and might score wow-points. They have an android app but it doesn't work on honeycomb. You have to start the meeting through their website.
In real life it remains a risky proposition. I could get away with it (I teach. Easy to switch to local machine if something goes wrong), but would never rely on such setup for a conference or other high stakes presentation. I now routinely use mightymeeting with an iPad. MM can save a local version of the presentation file. Never failed. Extremely convenient.

Any advantage and how to hook up Android mini PC to Note 2?

I will be getting Android mini-PC (Android TV) stick, waiting for this one: http://dx.com/p/cozyswan-mk809-ii-a...b-ram-8gb-rom-wi-fi-tf-bluetooth-black-185736 . The purpose was to see how I can convert my older TV into multimedia station for internet and streaming from laptop, etc.. While I'm waiting, I started to think if there are any advantages of connecting it to Note 2? I don't know much about these android-on-a-stick devices to even think how it could be used. I assume it will be a host, so if I connect Note 2 with usb cable (non-OTG) it will be accepted as peripheral device so I can stream pictures, movies, etc. through android-on-a-stick on tv? That does sound kind of redundant since I can probably do the same thing from a stick itself, but I'm also thinking even with Android 4.1 the stick will not have access to Play store and I'm not sure if I will be able to root it.
I just don't know what to expect. I know it should work connecting directly to tv hdmi port (of my cable box hdmi port?), but I want to come up with something cool where I can connect Note 2 to is as well. Probably on the go I can tether this stick to my Note 2 4G connection, and have it as stand-alone mini PC. But if I want to connect it to Note 2 (as a display), would it work if I get HDMI (female) to micro-usb cable?
Anyway, any ideas or thoughts - let me know, even if you think its a stupid idea to begin with. Either way, once I have it and play around with it, I will do some kind of a write up with pictures

Hello, if you're planning on buying an android stick, why invest in a dual core one when the quad core sticks are out, check the link below
http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Tron...188-2G-DDR3-Wifi-Bluetooth-TV-BOX-314524.html
i am not sure about new ways to connect it to the Note 2, but the traditional ways is to puch pictures/videos/music via DLNA
it would be interesting to know whether you can mirror the Note 2 screen to the android stick similar to apple TV

The CozySwan is basically an android device. Think of it like a tablet without a screen. So basically you'll just need to attach it to your tv (via hdmi) and you're ready to go (Well, it might need a mouse or keyboard to operate it). So attaching it to the Note 2 would be redundant. You can use the Note 2 just like the CozySwan. Attach it to your tv (via hdmi) and use either a bluetooth mouse or keyboard. If you get the smart dock then there are more possibilities.
Check out this video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nh2NSLgaII&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I like this video of the smart dock as it explains a lot of what it can do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hy3wETf5o0
as well as this video of the OTG, MHL, and other accessories: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46IiRyigUH0

Thanks guys! I guess no other special trick with that stick other than what I have already expected. In theory this $48 android stick can replace functionality of $99 smart dock and add more stuff to it (wireless kbd/mouse instead of bt), etc. I guess will play around with it once I get it.

I didnt even check to see who was the op.... you dabble in these things so maybe you can show us whats up when you get it...

Review of MK809-II Android TV with lots of pics!!!
Since I already started this topic and didn't know where it will take me, I wanted to post an update since I actually got that Android TV dongle and found it to be pretty cool. Maybe I will try to figure out how to make it work with Note 2, because for $48 it's cheaper then Samsung multimedia dock and offers way too many other options
So, this is a Review of MR809-II Android TV dongle: http://dx.com/p/cozyswan-mk809-ii-a...b-ram-8gb-rom-wi-fi-tf-bluetooth-black-185736
After reviewing numerous accessories for N2/N7/S4, I'm switching my gears and decided to do a project of converting my tv into "smart tv". If you think about, that's what the whole Google TV is about - taking your regular old TV and bringing it up to a new level with an enhanced option of Android and the same benefits you get from your Smart phone or tablet. I didn't want to buy any old gen stuff with overheating problems and those old AC adapters with round connector, or something that will cripple my use by not allowing access to Google Play, etc.
The unit I received came packaged very nicely with a lot of bonus connections. The main Android dongle measures about 110mm x 40mm x 10mm and weights about 34g. In addition to that, you get HDMI extension cable just in case if you don't have easy access to plug the stick into the back/side of your TV. It also came with OTG adapter with micro-usb to full USB connection which can turn the spare micro-usb port on the stick into another "host" to allow connection of other peripheral devices without a need for a hub. And you also get a quality AC adapter with a full 2A output to use usb to micro-usb cable to power up the device. I noticed older generation device were using round plug wall adapter which always a drag to carry around. This device, you can use ANY of your smart phone ac charging adapters, as long as it 2A (like the one which came with Note 2).
Now, about the spec of the device. This one uses RK3066 CPU, dual core Cortex-A9 with clock speed up to 1.6GHz; 1GB of DDR3 memory, and 8GB of internal memory which can be expanded further with micro-sd card (from a built in slot). The built quality seems to be decent, not flimsy at all; it looks like a big usb stick with a cap over HDMI port. Also, I noticed the back has vents for additional cooling. While using it, I haven't noticed too much overheating. The device supports WiFi and Bluetooth, and I had no issues with it's connections. I have my router on the first floor while I was testing it with a tv in our bedroom on the second floor, pretty far away. For interface, I was using Anker mini keyboard (candy bar type of BT keyboard with a touch pad). At first to initialize it I had wired mouse plugged into USB host port (no need for OTG adapter, goes right into full size USB port labeled "host" on the stick) to pair up with BT device. Once I did it the first time, afterwards mouse was unplugged and I was using mini BT keyboard to control it.
The stick came preloaded with Android 4.1.1 and full access to Google Play!!! I was very pleased with that since I know a lot of cheap tablets don't have access to Google Play and you have to side load your apps. Not with this device. I signed in with my Google account, and was able to get to Play right away. Also, with its file manager, I was able to connect to other devices shared on my wifi, such as network hard drive. I have seen some people complaining about wifi connection with their MK809-II, but let me reassure you the one I got worked perfectly. It also supports every possible audio, video, music, and picture format under the sun.
Overall, setup was very easy where within minutes I was running full tablet interface on my TV. This is my first Android TV experience and I was very pleased with the results.

Just out of curiosity.. Do you think the App TabletRemote will work with this? It'll be cool to use your phone as the remote. I haven't tried the app myself so I don't even know how it works.

Tmart mini HDMI 2 AV converter
I decided to take my setup one step further to see how I can convert my dinosaur TV into smart TV. I still have to try out that app to use Note 2 as a tablet remote controller, but in this review I would like to talk about taking my previous setup of Android on a stick and turning an old tube tv into a smart tv with a help of this little gadget: http://www.tmart.com/MINI-HDMI-to-AV-CVBS-to-RCA-Converter_p163569.html
It's hard to believe TVs without HDMI input ever existed lol!!! But if you have one in your house which has lasted your for 10+ years and still working great, you are stuck with AV inputs as the only mean of connecting any peripheral devices. So if you got yourself a shiny new smart phone with HDMI dock or have Android-on-a-stick device to turn your tv into a big screen tablet - there is NOTHING you can do without converting HDMI into Analog audio/video. This kind of converter box becoming extinct, just like all those TVs, so its really hard to find one for a reasonable price. The one I got is the cheapest I found for about $40 shipped in US or internationally from Tmart.com. If you are in US, make sure to select "us warehouse" shipping from location, that one ships from NJ. Otherwise, you gonna end up waiting for awhile if it ships from HK.
I was a little nervous with this one because I saw an output with a typical red/white audio and yellow for video but video said "CVBS". But it worked flawlessly. First of all, it's a tiny little box I weighted to be 40g (1.4 oz) and about 60mm x 55mm x 20mm. You get full size HDMI input, AV RCA connector output, and PAL/NTSC switch for your video signal (so you are covered for both US and EU), and mini-usb input for power. It comes with mini-usb to USB cable in case if you don't have one considering everything switched to micro-usb, and also instruction booklet. As you can see, plugged in my Android stick, hook up wires going to TV, switched to NTSC and thats ALL! You DO NOT even need to power it up with external cable!!!!!!! I can only guess it gets its power from HDMI pins of Android stick since those are powered up. Of course, we are talking about HD widescreen output intended for a tablet going to 4:3 ancient tv so the image is squeezed on the sides. But it has nothing to do with a conversion, but rather with different "display resolution".
I know in this day'n'age of HD TVs it's hard to believe there is TV without HDMI input. But if you still have an old TV without HDMI input and don't want to throw it away, you can breath in a new life for $40 Remember, you can just plugin your Note 2 or any other smart phone with usb to hdmi adapter or from your multimedia cradle.
Here are the pics:

Those boxes are handy, especially connecting an older projector into a ps3. How is the performance of the stick? Give it a few benchmark runs. Thinking about getting one of these myself.

Which benchmark app do you want me to run?
Yes, the box definitely comes handy. I seen also another one, I believe on Tmart.com as well where you convert AV back to HDMI. This way you can connect old WII console to a new tv. I was very pleased that no external power was required to this box, and it stayed cool (no overheating).
Still need to get around to try using Note 2 as a remote tablet controller. That would be ultimate!!!

3d mark and antutu would be appreciated.

Been using the Minix G4 version of what you bought. Its been the best thing for my smart(less) plasma since hooking it up! Rooted and running a custom jellybean rom and havnt looked back since!
I credit Sony PS3 DRM for forcing me to put an Android box on my plasma. I have never been happier since. Thanks Sony!
As for using the Note as a remote, grab yourelf a copy of Droidmote - both (client and server).

I looked Droidmore app and it seems that Client side app is free while Server side app is paid. Not a problem, but Server side requires a root which I wasn't planning to do. So, I went to TabletRemote and it DID the trick!!!! It took a bit to configure. Need to install the same app on your Note 2 and Android stick connected to tv. Both have to be on wifi. Then, in Connection need to make Android stick to be Discoverable while on Note 2 scan for devices. Once they will auto-discover each other and display a pop-up with a matching code - click on pair up and you are done. The app on the phone is arranged as a remote in portrait or a game-pad controller in landscape. As a remote you have 4-direction arrow control with Enter - this will enable you to step through icons, folders, screens on a system hosted by Android stick. You also get menu, return, and home buttons, as well as search and keyboard (for typing) buttons. Plus you get full multimedia control with play/pause, forward, back, and volume control.
Very impressive and it's free!

That's good to know. Thanks for updating.

I have the latest quad core stick and these things are great. Vectron have you rooted or updated your firmware to 4.2?
Not sure about vectrons model but apparently these sticks supports phone mirroring now if you are running the latest firmware on your phone. All the sticks mk##, QC## are the same.
To anyone who wants the official remote app you can find it here:

Firmware upgrades and root can be found here:

And if you are interested in an air mouse/keyboard this one works great. I must say this remote works much better than my lg and Samsung remote which came with my smart TV.

Hey I just bought this naughty little gadget and very excited to use it. Quick question though, will I need to purchase a wireless/wired mouse to set it up or..? I wanted to install droidmote and use my Note 2 as a wireless mouse, but then I realized that I will need something to navigate to playstore and install DM app. I just never had to use Android Tv's so pardon me folks.

SlimPort Issues

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.

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.

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!

Pixel XL MHL and video out

Looking at putting a Hudly in my car. I am now reading that Pixel doesnt support MHL and theres no alternative method to work around this ??
For in car systems this is really a major omission and leading me to junk my Pixel XL and upgrade again. Did no one think about in car use to a car display or HUD's ?? Really ??
Yes sure you can say chromecast it, now I need to create wifi in car, deal with battery use and charging, flaky connections, the chromecast hardware, setting up the cast each and every time I get in the car / start the apps, etc etc..
Versus you know, just plugging it in !!
Is there no way this can be fixed, is this really a hardware issue that cannot be solved ??
Seriously disappointing to think my ancient old out of date hardware from the retirement drawer will work fine by my Pixel XL cant.

This claims to do the task for a Pixel XL but as yet no word back from support. I strongly suspect this is incorrect data and its merely a MHL HDMI cable and they machine generate each phone into the description ??

Or.. What about USB 3 to HDMI active adapters ??

There's no HDMI support for the PIxel at all, it wouldn't support MHL regardless as it's the old standard. The only way to mirror screen is via Chromecast or Miracast.

Seriously huge flaw.. With all the various HUD devices and car head units coming out..
New phone shopping it seems. What about Android Auto, what format is the data moved over when plugged in for that ? While it would be a reduced feature set I could live with android auto only displayed on the Hudly ?

AFAIK there is no way to connect the Le Max 2 to a TV using a cable. It simply doesn't have the hardware to support HDMI over the USB C port. You can use Miracast or Chromecast to connect wirelessly.

I try already Miracast dongles from aliexpress but they are poor quality and screen is freezing.
Can chromecast do screen mirroring? not cast mirroring, whole screen from phone?
is this original??
what is the difference between theese?

Yes you can mirror your android screen.
Different sellers/ different regions / different prices?
You can buy a 2nd gen from stores here in the US for $35
I'm surprised your TV has a HDMI port but no DLNA/casting built in?

As mentioned, Chromecast can mirror Android screen. Or maybe a Miracast dongle from a more reputable manufacturer (e.g. Microsoft or Belkin) would give better results than the one you tried.

All of the above. Maybe copies, maybe fell off the back of a truck, maybe totally legit selling real chromecasts. Why not just buy from Google?

MiraCast and DisplayLink do work

As others mentioned, MHL or HDMI over USB type C are proprietary solutions which Le Max simply doesn't support. It's really too bad, because the hardware is powerful enough to drive a big screen with some serious desktop work like M$ Office.
I've use Microsoft's MiraCast Dongle (2nd generation) on the MoKee ROMs and it works well enough. There is some lag, but most of it may actually be from my TV, an LG set that just tends to lag on all HDMI inputs, while it does just fine on RGB.
I've used it to run PowerPoint sessions off the phone and it's really cool for not having to pack a laptop or a big bag when you go and visit a customer.
It wasn't so great for playing games with say an Xbox bluetooth controller, but video is ok.
I also tried using a DisplayLink USB 3 to HDMI adapter, which works well enough to. Actually I believe it even lags a little less, but I don't think it supported games.
None of them support what I really want, though: A portable desktop where I'd just connect my phone to a USB dock on my desktop and start working with one or two external screens, Ethernet, keyboard and mouse for an entire workday, while the phone is charged.
Some apps struggle with DPI settings, so it can be useful to have an app which overrides the DPI settings for things like Citrix or Remote Desktop clients.
The hardware is definitely powerful enough to handle it (I even got a 6GB RAM version), but it's simply not a use case LeEco cares about, nor anyone else in the Android space, unfortunately.
