Gnex to hdtv? This possible? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

If so, what's the cheapest solution?
Mandated from Stannis Baratheon

I think the cheapest solution is the one that is free, Install a free dlna app and this is enough to get videos on your screen, and music and pics, it´s awesome, but If you are talking about the homescreen and games in the tv I don´t know how, or the only way is to get a dock

Yeah if your TV has WiFi, most of them will recognize dlna hosts. But if you want to do more than host videos or music, get an MHL adapter. It will allow you to use HDMI and mirror anything on the screen

Or an MHL adapter. Please search before starting a new topic. This has been covered many times in the forums, and its also in the spec list.

Confirmed, I have one and it works.

They don't update the list on a daily basis to reflect the newest phones.
As long as the micro USB port supports MHL, you're good.

Is the MHL cable required for USB OTG?

All that I'm interested in is accessing external storage. Would this work?

From what i understand you need to get that Micro-A version not the B version. I THINK
No it does not work.

Won't work either way.
That and most cable will work with Galaxy S2 but it won't work with Epic 4G Touch Galaxy S2. Although they are close they are not the same phone.
USB OTG is disabled on the Sprint version of the SGSII. MHL is only to split the USB data from the HDMI stream.
Do you guys know when it'll be enabled? I asked in a development thread for ICS to see if it could be added in the new kernel they are developing for it and got flamed by Jerdog.
I would love to have this as I use it a lot on my Xoom.

It is a really nice feature I use on the zoom as well. It would be nice to get it enabled.
Can anyone verify if the MHL cable works out of the car dock?

That certainly is a bummer. I assume car dock would be the same then. Thanks for answering!

Will this work with the Nexus 7

I found this Micro USB OTG to SD Card Reader For Samsung GT-N7000 Galaxy Note i9100 S2 SII 2 and was wondering if this would work on my rooted nexus 7?

I have a cheap otg cable that works perfect for my nexus 7 and gs3. And by perfect I mean perfect. I wanted to push the limits with it on my s3 and n7, with out any apps or putting any settings in I ran a 4 port USB hub with a wireless mouse, wired keyboard and an 8gig pen drive from both the nexus and the galaxy. Both can read a 1tb hard drive too as long as it has its own power supply. So far the only I can't get to run nicely is the HP printer my partner has but yeah I got mine for $8 with a free case, and everything runs as soon as its plugged it.
Good luck!!
PS
If you can get a right angle one. I regret not getting one it would be easier to use and hide then.

yes

[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?

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.

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.
