Ok looks like it's micro usb wtf is the point of that? That's like adding an extra item that isn't needed

Ok looked a little harder and it seems this adapter is more for those who have the old 5 pin mhl adapter. If this is the case what a waste of money :thumbdown:
Guess I'll be ordering a proper adapter. Ps will the new 11 pin work with the old 5 pin phones? Otherwise it might be better to get the old mhl adapter since I already have the damn adapter lol. Is this all correct?

I don't think the 11 pin to 5 pin will work, but I haven't tried this so I could be wrong. I found this thread that could interest you however...

Already read it. As far as I can tell the adapter I bought is to be able to use the normal mhl adapter. Which is why it has a micro usb port as a an output. So you can connect it. The Samsung s3 mhl adapter is an 11 pin from the s3 output already. Furthermore, Samsung arguably released the latter adapter to appease the masses since they gave the consortium and people a big F U.

Does the Note have A/V out via headphone socket like Galaxy 9000 Used to?

I know it's not HD just standard composite vid and stereo but does anyone have a lead to give it a whirl. I remember it worked on the Original Galaxy i9000..
no .

No, that is very dated nowadays for phones made this year. Most have mini-HDMI or MHL adapters that use the micro USB slot to output video. The Galaxy Note needs MHL adapter to have HDMI out.
Composite connection is available on practically any TV especially when we travel, however HDMI is obviously available only on the HDTVs which might not be accessible while travelling to remote places, so its a good thing to have a regular composite output in your pocket. I know unfortunately nothing could be done in this regards other than to look for an HDMI to composite/component converters.

More expansive electronic on the device, more the device will cost:
If you travel, you can buy this converter:

Is this an mental idea. I have a TV out lead from a previous HTC Touch Pro. Mini USB connector. Could I just use a mini, to micro USB adapter and get the GNote to broadcast out that way, or wouldn't it do anything?
I've even seen a 3.5m out lead '3.5mm to RCA TV out cable, composite' Works on the Galaxy S.
Or can't you get anything to any kind of TV at all and the only option is an MHI to HDMI lead to a TV that can take HDMI (Samsung make one, it's about 20 Euro).
Other option is, I have no idea what I'm talking about, at all....

Nexus Charger : Good for UK 3-pin and Euro 2-pin?

Could anyone tell me if the chargers shipped from the UK are compatible with both types of power outlets?
The "Clover Unboxing Video" showed that the UK 3-pin "option" is clipped over a two-pin type casing ... but from the video, I could not be sure if they could be easily interchanged.
I am in Malta (which uses the 3-pin (BS1363) config [which I prefer] MOST of the time), but I often travel to Mainland Europe where the two-pin style (Europlug -- CEE7/x?) outlets dominate.
Would much appreciate any feedback!
PS .. I lovingly and studiously linked to URLs for both the video and the socket specs, but as a noob, I was not allowed external links in my comment ... No problem - I FULLY understand the reasons for this policy!
You would need the 2-pin "clipping".
Otherwise Just use a travel adapter.
I don't think it will work with a 2pin Euro clip.
have a look at the picture:

The 3rd UK pin folds out and there doesn't seem to be an option to remove it.
I don't quite understand your question, but I think you'r wondering if the wall-socket connector on the charger is easy to switch between one or the other? If so then, yes this is just a pop-on pop-off manouver. If both types of connectors come with the box, i have no idea! Hope this helps somewhat.
Edit: Regarding the picture above, the 2-pin connector should be able to slide over the third plastic pin when in a folded position.

Thanks Tim ... your picture seems to show that what I was hoping for is not possible .... So - I must remember to pack an adaptor when travelling.
Many thanks for your time and the others for replying!
The Euro clip in bit probably has a groove in it so that it fits with the UK earth pin folded down.
Galaxy Nexus has a USB charger so you can easily charge your device with a computer until you get a converter (they sell them almost everywhere) or simply another USB charger that works for you.

Anyone know where to buy JUST the plug for a Micro-USB?

I need to buy a Micro-USB plug.. but without the cable.
The part that plugs into a phone. Without the cable attached.

It looks like this.
Sorry if wrong section. I'm not really sure where to put this..
Have you checked your local Radio Shack? Or you can search online, places like Mousse Electronics have all kinds of connectors. Hope this helps you.
The all powerful ebay has it all with free shipping from china

If you don't need it as an SMD part to solder it onto a PCB, the easier task could be to get a cable, cut it through, and connect the wires (to wherever they are supposed to connect to).
I think you can't..maybe in electronic store you can
You might try digikey:

I'm curious about your project! What kinds of things are you working on?

It's a Jig for a bricked Samsung Captivate. I only had one cord so I didn't want to cut into it.
But thank you all for your suggestions! I ordered just a normal cable and I'm going to cut away at the plastic.
The best source for cheap cables is monoprice.com
You can get micro USB cables in a variety of lengths for about a dollar each. Whenever I order from them, I just buy an assortment of cables that may come in handy (USB, hdmi, audio, etc) because shipping is more expensive than the cables themselves.

[Q] Chain HDMI to VGA-Adapter to MHL to HDMI-Adapter possible?

I want to use my Note 2 for presentations, but not all projectors have HDMI input yet. Is there a way to chain a HDMI to VGA adapter to the MHL to HDMI adapter? Or exists a working MHL to VGA adapter for the Note 2?
(I saw in another thread that not all MHL to HDMI adapters are compatible with the Note 2 - how can I tell?)
Thanks in advance,
yatohese
VGA is analog, HDMI is digital, it will not work without some sort of big external converter that would require a power supply and what not...

I think this is not entirely correct, since there exist DVI(digital) to VGA(analog) adaptors:

Actually, kosanrio is right, you would need one of those powered converters. As for your dvi adapter idea, you need to remember that dvi is made in a digital and am analog format, and is only interchangeable if the equipment supports both formats. In this case, that would mean your mhl adapter needs to support analog output. I can assure you that no mhl to HDMI adapter will support that.
Just Google for mhl VGA adapter. They exist, they are relatively inexpensive, and you should look for reviews stating it works with your phone model.

mhl adaptors need to be "11 pin" MHL adapters.
they are usually easy to recognise because they always have something like "made for galaxy s3" or "compatible with galaxy s3" written on the packaging or product page.
as for your presentation problem: wouldn't it be an idea to invest in a Pico projector?
it costs some money, but then you'd have an HDMI compatible projector no bigger than your phone, which you could just slip in your pocket or bag.
it wouldn't be much more to carry than an MHL/HDMI to VGA converter.

Replacing the USB Charging Cable

My USB charging cable broke from one end and I need to replace it. Where can I find an original Samsung Retail or OEM, but not from a 3rd party cheap one. Thanks

Here are a few OEM ones.

Yeah I had seen those but didn't know for sure it they are really Samsung OEM. I read reviews that if you buy an OEM fake that its a tight fit and you can screw up the connection on the tablet.

When I got some items they shipped out of Texas.
I have the CrazyonDigital cords (AC charger, USB cable and 12V charger) that were bundled with my leather rotating case. They all work and I use the CrazyonDigital AC charger rather than the OEM because it is longer and charges more quickly. I also use the 12V cable more than I thought I would. You can buy the cable bundle separately from CrazyonDigital directly for $12.85 USD. http://www.crazyondigital.com/samsungp5113carwalldataq.html

All I ever buy are "OEM fakes" and they've never caused me any issues.
