The original galaxy tab has a external keyboard for it , will it release for this gt10.1 ? Hope to have a keyboard that make me easier to type mails n gaming
I can see Samsung making a keyboard dock for gTab 10.1.
Must Have! As its replacing my dead netbook for the internets surfing.
I would be happy with just a smallish dock where we can plug in usb Keyboard and Mouse that charges and maybe HDMI out ect. Cheap enough to have one at work and one at home.
If this doesn't come about i guess it bt keyboard/mouse combo will have to do.
Anyone know if there if the 3rd parties have started making them?
Cheers.

HELP NEEDED:
Will the new accessories (announced for galaxy tab 10.1: BT Headset, Sound Station, Desk Dock and USB Connection Kit) be available for this model also? This is quite important for me to decide…

Hi Mark
These accessories are available for the Galaxy Tab 10.1v, however we will not be selling them.
Cheers

So I guess we can count those as accessories we can use?

The GT10.1 P7510 we were given at I/O has two circular charging contacts on each side of the charging port. Hopefully that equates to a charging dock that doesnt require plugging in.

They did mention some docks during the reveal (forgot where it was, maybe CTIA?). Lets just hope Samsung won't take 5 months to release it though like they do for their phones.
If anyone knows, how long did it take for the original Galaxy Tab accessories to come out?
Logitech released a keyboard and separate mouse being marketed for Android 3.x tablets today on their website. The mouse is only for 3.1 devices according to the promo materials. The keyboard is a nice small keyboard with a case that is supposed to support the tablet as an easel when its not holding the keyboard. They're all Bluetooth devices.
I like the devices but wonder if they're with the price premium.

I tested them with an ohm-meter, they are not conductive. They look like screw access covers.
Not sure if anyone has seen this, and I'm just assuming it's for the new 10.1

Wonder if that 10.1 Samsung branded keyboard will control my 7in Galaxy Tab? They definately have the same plugs on the bottom.

I wouldn't doubt it. There's a video on YouTube where a kid has an I/O 10.1 and has a dock for his 7in Galaxy Tab. Did a little modification and the 10.1 works on the dock and does hdmi mirroring. He probably didn't adjust his overscan on his tv though.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJAjNDuPf6k
Video of the keyboard, close up and stuff.
It's quite poor, since it's priced around 80$... But as a desk dock it's hell of a good one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQsjI4CcTWM&feature=player_embedded
There's also a case with an integrated bluetooth keyboard in it, that is an official samsung accesory, that costs 150$ LOL...

Galaxy tab hdmi adapter works perfectly and I have it and tested it http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0059UGT1K/ref=oh_details_o01_s01_i00
Also this is a way to have wireless mirroring: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0089VO7MY/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
I ordered the wireless one, probably won't get til october though at the earliest.
+1 I have this one also and it does work. The wired one. You do have to have the charger plugged in for it to work-so consider this when deciding which to get. Someone else mentioned an HTC one for wireless in another thread.

Yes but i am not connecting it to my note
It connects to the tv and ad regular micro usb. At least the one I ordered.
@ BeerChameleon and TonyZ3: Have you guys tried using surround sound with the HDMI adapter? (Settings/Accessory/HDMI sound/Surround.) The default is Stereo, and my Note 10.1 works great on that setting. But if I select "Surround" I get audio out that is extremely choppy. BTW, using either setting my adapter puts out a PCM 5.1 signal. With stereo selected, sound only goes to Front Left & Right, even though the signal is still PCM 5.1...

Sorry I missed this the other day.
I just did some quick testing and for me a movie on stereo is a little louder than surround. But not choppy. If I just play my Google music thru the hdmi the sound is equal in both settings.
Mine doesn't give me the option to change it from stereo it is grayed out....

Same issues for me, I think it is just on certain TV's. It will work at home on my Vizio TV but the Hotel I stay in while on the road has the no audio problem. Since I only really use this when on the road I just started using my Monster Bluetooth audio speaker when I use the HDMI on the road. I also use the audio plug instead of the Bluetooth to keep it from being out of sync with the audio. I wish I did not have to do this but so far it is the only way I can use the Note 10.1 with HDMI. I also have the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it works perfect.
Try setting the audio output to stereo instead of surround. That fixed the audio for me.

thx so far
"output to stereo" already done but no change....
I don't think that the TV (Philips Cineos 42pfl9732d) is the causer because any other "HDMI" equipment works fine with it (blu-ray, Dig. STB, etc).
At the moment it looks like for me that the Samsung HDMI Adapter works not really 100% within the specifications which could cause problems with different devices. By the way not sure if this Adapter has been made for HDMI 1.2 or 1.4 maybe this is the point in conjunction with the cable and the TV.....
Will try something within next days and send the Adapter back if nothing works
Nobody else had any problems with the Audio output ?
It works fine on my Sony TV but I did have to crank the volume up to about 50 (normal is about 20).

Other hdmi items worked fot me as well, just not the note on the hotels tv. My laptop and galaxy tab 10.1 both worked and audio was perfect. The only reason i am saying it could be the tv is for that reason. My note worked at home but not at the hotel. I do use stero as the sound source not surrond.

Asked Samsung Support yesterday and received already a reply saying that subject adapter does only work perfectly with items supporting anynet+ (seems to be a special variation of HDMI-CEC). Now I am a little bit confused and worry because this ist not described on the product specification and is finally only to force anybody to use Samsung equipment....
By the way this would explain why it works on some devices, obviously it depends how exactly relevant manufactures consider HDMI specs
Sent from GT-N8000 using Tapatalk 2
But Anynet+/HDMI-CEC is supposed to just add optional extra features such as being able to control certain features of your TV from your device. Not supporting this should only mean those features don't work, but you can still watch HDMI content by setting your TV to the HDMI input manually. Also, Anynet+ is intended to be fully compatible with HDMI-CEC - it's Samsung's trade name for HDMI-CEC.
As a final point, I really wouldn't put much stock into what a support rep says, and that goes for *any company*.

I agree. This 30 pin connector, proprietary charging, no HDMI, coupled with no JB 4.2 so no miracast, this is one disconnected, connected, wired and shackled but supposedly mobile device.
I've only had it for three weeks and I miss a more connected, but liberated device.
It's frustrating cause this could be soooooo good.

my playbook, and my note 2 use 2 amp chargers. I just lucked or on the 30 pin connector because I had a mini usb to 30 pin connector for my tab 2 7.0, and an extra cable.
The tf300 was a dream to type on with the dock, but honestly, my note 10.1 kicks the crap out of it. The oem cover works great, with the exception of a lot of e's that come out 3.

I had no idea that this was happening.
It would be awesome if Samsung could come up with a transformer-esque type of keyboard/cover, or even a touch-cover like the Surface.
It makes the idea of a "Note netbook/laptop" a good one, but with two separated accessories i.e. stand + bluetooth keyboard, that idea is gone.
Shame :/
The tablet must be a tablet, not a computer if you want a computer buy it separately. A tablet is made for commands through touchscreen, if you want to have a tablet with dock keyboard buy a tablet-pc ( i own one..)

Eh? I can find the Samsung connector (which is actually a standard called "PDMI") just about anywhere (at least in the States), I've got more charger options now than i had with my Moto Xoom, especially if you buy one of these. HDMI and AllShare Cast work on my device, too.
I've used 4.2 and we're not really missing much useful save the multi-user feature.
I have 4 BT Keyboards, including one with a built-in stick mouse and a cover that folks to make a stand; the combo (which is light enough I carry it around in a case with my Note) gives me everything I could get with the KB dock except maybe charging and it's apparently more portable as well.
I'd say we're pretty well-connected

This. I've been able to travel with only my tablet (on certain business trips even) and have most of what i'd needed to do be accessible that way.
I went to verizon yesterday & saw a Samsung branded Keyboard dock for the Tab10.1. I tried it with the display model Tab 2 10.1 & it fit. I thought that the Tab 210.1 & the Note 10.1 were the same size. I was gutted to find it was not. It works if you pull out the plastic guide/holder, but then it is kind of flimsy in there. Bummer.
Wasnt there a rumor somewhere that one of Samsungs next tablets was going to be transformer-esque? I could have sworn I read something a few months ago about it.

Well, with the GNote 10.1 LTE coming to VZ soon, I'd expect they'd be getting accessories there, too (and likely to be hugely overpriced), so I'd come back again a little while after the GNote's available in VZ stores.
Tempted to grab one off ebay. What can I say, sometimes I get typity.

That sounds sort of narrow-minded in my opinion. Why can't a tablet be both or why can't a computer be a tablet? For an artist like me, I would love the opportunity if tablets got powerful enough to rival their notebook counterparts and offered a desktop view as well as for easy access with a keyboard and trackpad.
With the move of ultrabooks , especially the Surface Pro, converging into tablet territory with full features, one must consider that to be a blessing than a curse. Think about it in this way: Would you carry a radio, cd player , portable DVD player with TV, game system and an ereader just to be able to use them, or would you opt for the simpler solution of an all in one deal? That is the number one reason why the iPod took off: portability. Not only can you get a radio, but a music player and now video, games and reading.
It gets roughly cumbersome to carry every single CD, DVD ,game cart/disc in addition to the hardware , let alone the books for brief reading in commutes in comparison to an all out deal.
For the average consumer and artist, such things are so hard to get that it is pushed towards the rich ,but now similar tech now exists that has the potential to allow for maximal power and capability and the ability to change form factors on the fly. Why should people have to be inconvenienced to buying several different products that can be brought under one device when it can be deducted into one singular product that is amazing and does it all , broadly speaking?
If we went by this flawed logic an mp3 player must play music only, but no radio , thus how would iPods and whatnot be popular if they didn't serve multiple functions simply?

Thanks.....I think. Glad to hear about the PDMI. Just have to figure out how to use it.
What I was trying too say is everything is an add on so my kit ends up being as bulky as my ultrabook and far more prone to losing some piece that makes the whole thing work. my last tablet logged about 100k+/- frequent flyer miles. Using one power brick with one power end, one multi headed usb, one multi headed hdmi, one universal battery charger brick fit neatly in an airplane amenity bag, and served two cameras, one phone and a tablet. Needed no OTG cable to get the CF card reader seen by the tablet. Because I have a GNex, I already have a data/sync switch on my usb cable.
The cameras are the hardest and heaviest to carry.
So far, I've had to add another amenity kit to add the adapters for the Note. And I still don't have a way of using it to run a projector or tv. My phone ends up doing that.

I'm wondering if anyone has tried using the smart dock with the Note 8.0
Note II is really similar, so I would hope that the Note 8.0 will work
The Samsung site says Note II and Galaxy IV so now I'm a little iffy.
The MHL and OTG adapters are pretty universal, but I can only use one at a time
2 usb ports plus the HDMI would be great for me at the office since I can plug in the tab and have it running on my 2nd monitor (along with KB and mouse)
Has anyone tried yet?

Are you able to put the Note 8.0 into landscape when using the Smart Dock? Also, is the device stable enough to be written upon with S-pen while docked?
BTW, is there any other way to get USB- OTG and HDMI functionality simultaneously? (sans the Smart Dock)
I have the Smart Dock for my Note II and it works well. I haven't received my Int'l 3G Note 8.0 yet to test it, but it's good to hear that others have it working.
Since the Smart Dock holds both devices in Portrait orientation, it will not automatically put the display in Landscape mode unless you are playing a video. You would have to use a 3rd party app such as "Orientation Control".
I doubt you could write on the Note 8.0's screen successfully while in the dock. The dock is roughly 3" square and is not heavy enough to stabilize the tab for anything but very light screen taps or swipes. The device is not secured in the dock other than the by microUSB connector. The device just rests in the dock under its own weight, vertically.
The Smart Dock is not made to hold the device physically in a Landscape orientation. I'm not sure if a microUSB-to-microUSB extension cable would work to retain the functions and allow a separate landscape "holder" or case/cover to be used without the actual Smart Dock attached? Hmmm...
Oh, AFAIK, and I've researched fairly thoroughly, I couldn't find any other way to achieve HDMI, Audio, and USB OTG simultaneously. You might be able to use the Allcast Media Hub for wireless HDMI & Audio, and then connect a USB OTG adapter to the Note 8.0's microUSB/MHL port, but I haven't tested that.
Hope this helps.

Thanks, it was very helpful. I was thinking of getting the Smart Dock in lieu of the HDMI adapter. USB-OTG + HDMI at same time isn't much of a necessity for me. HDMI is still primary for me. Audio, when required could be used from the 3.5 mm jack.
Guess, it would be better to go for the HDMI adapter.
BTW, do you have any experience on HDMI to VGA converters?Do they work well? Actually I need to hook up the Note 8.0 to a VGA projector?
^No worries.
I don't have a ton of experience with HDMI-to-VGA adapters, but I would trust the people at the following link to steer you in the right direction...
http://www.comprehensivecable.com/
Click on the "Adapters" tab, have a look, then shoot them an email. They're very helpful and knowledgeable.
You might also try http://www.monoprice.com
VGA doesn't carry Audio signals, so you would most likely need a unit that would extract the audio from the HDMI as well as the Video signal, and then route the Audio to a separate connector/cable. I have seen some VGA cables that also have a 3.5mm Stereo audio plug at each end, so you can hook up the audio output from your PC's sound card and plug it into the 3.5mm audio Jack on most video projectors. You can find these at http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=180-285
Good luck.

Yes, I have seen some which can extract audio from the HDMI feed.
There are a number of listings on eBay in my country. I would love to get it from a reliable website, but most of them are overseas and the customs department in India makes it a lot of hassle.
I ordered a display adapter from dx.com once. No problems with website or the product, but it was held up for a month at the customs office and finally I had to pay a 50% duty as well.

And I am not having any sound come out of the 3.5 jack on the back of the dock.

Is your Note 8.0 battery level above 80% when you put it in the dock? If not, the tablet will draw too much power from the power adapter just to CHARGE the tablet, and the USB ports do not have sufficient power. If your tablet or phone battery is over 80%, this isn't a problem and you shouldn't have to "re-Dock" it to get the USB ports to work. Samsung should have made the power adapter more powerful (3 or 4 amps).
To get audio output from the 3.5mm rear Jack, you need to go into SETTINGS > ACCESSORY > AUDIO OUTPUT MODE, and Check the box for "Use External Speakers when device is Docked".

I picked up a smart dock today and I am playing with it right now.
Some issues, having to repower up the dock for usb to work after tablet is inserted.
And I am not having any sound come out of the 3.5 jack on the back of the dock.
Also it I am using a HDMI to DVI adaptor for my moniter and I am using an orentation control app with it.
Wish it worked with my Galaxy s3.

Just to be clear, are you able to Use the S-Pen when docked, any way to keep the tablet physically in a landscape position?

I thought I had answered your Portrait/Landscape question in paragraphs 3 & 4 of Post #4? Read through it again. The smart dock does not hold the tablet in a Landscape (horizontal) orientation at all. You could possibly use a case or cover on the Note 8.0 that would hold it in landscape, or use Samsung's Note 8.0 Car Mount and then connect the tablet to the Smart Dock with a 11-pin Male-to-Female micro-USB extension cable.
Hope this helps.

Yes, I had already read your post.
But the other member claimed to have already used it with the Note8, whereas you told me that you were still expecting your note 8, so I was keen to know more about the actual experience of a user.
BTW, Do you know if 11 pin USB extension cables are available?

Take a look at a picture of the smart dock, or look at nztechfreak's YouTube review of it. Just from its physical size and design there is no way that the Smart Dock can support or hold a tablet in a Landscape or horizontal position when on a desk/flat surface...or any surface.
For reference, I just tried my Note II in the Smart Dock with the phone and dock laying on its side. The dock will hold the Note II in landscape position, but the phone is at a perfect 90° angle to the table's surface, which makes it hard to use the touchscreen, and it will easily become undocked, as there is no pressure or weight to secure the device. And there is nothing directly behind the phone to keep it from moving or sliding back when you press the screen. Also, at least one USB port will be inaccessible because it or they will be against the table's surface when the dock is laying on its side. This dock was simply made to only hold a PHONE (either the Note II, SGS3, or SGS4) in a vertical Portrait position. It's obvious from the design that it was not made for landscape use whatsoever. It just happens to hold the Note II on its side because the dock is the same width as the phone.
I don't believe that Samsung will ever make a LANDSCAPE Desk dock for the Note 8.0. It is clear from its general design that Samsung intended this tablet to be used as a "Notepad" in a Portrait (vertical) orientation. The only odd exception is the position of the IR Blaster on the side (the SGS4 IR Blaster is on the top). I would definitely like a landscape desk dock as well, but I'm not convinced that it would be practical for this particular tablet. However, there is a car/windshield mount listed on Samsung's web site that looks like it will hold the tablet in landscape mode.
I'm searching for the extension cables now and will post here if & when I find them.
Thanks.
I never tried the S-Pen while in the dock. Also I tried the settings mentioned above to get the 3.5 sound to work, but no luck.
I took it back, I'll wait for a proper one to come out, or try with the wifi all share hub and build somthing that way.
Got one of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/23108138465...769&_trkparms=ga1m=T1&ga2m=T0&ga3m=T1&ga4m=T2
If I hook up USB+charger and THEN the HDMI, it works. For some reason (lack of power???) it won't accept a flash drive if I plug a hub in and the flash drive into that. (I use a Bluetooth keyboard and a USB mouse.)
Haven't bit the bullet on the official smart dock yet though :'(.
So far there's not a Dock available for the note but I've found this two that maybe work, they're for the GS2-3-4. Obviously they're narrow because are designed for cellphones but who knows if they do the trick for the note. If someone has one and tried on their note, please let us know how it turned out.

I dont believe they work, they were discussed here

I can confirm that the dock I use for my Note 2 does indeed work with my 2014 Note 10.1.
http://www.tvc-mall.com/details/Mul...Galaxy-S2-Galaxy-Note-II-Black-MCH-I9500-01A/
The dock fits my Note 2 while still in the case, yet seems to be fairly stable holding the much thinner tab w/o one. Fairly cheap too at $6.71, $2 less than I paid for it.
While you're at it, pick up the BT speakers: http://t.rs-tk.com/t.aspx/subid/186...hone-Intelligent-Voice-Speaker-Red-MINS-597B/
The speakers are reviewed here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...ble-bluetooth-speaker-tvc-mall-lots-pics.html
Good.. Thanks, I think the first one I posted looks like it has a more longer area to hold the note... Didn't decide yet but now that you tried one helps a lot, thanks.
I have a similar Altec speaker, thanks anyway..

can you show us a picture of the tablet docked? I want to see how precarious it looks
Anyone tried the "New Single Desktop Sync Charger USB Dock For Samsung Galaxy Tab 3" on ebay?
It can hardly not work since it looks like the USB is just passthrough.. but the question is how well the tablet sits in it..
Sorry, can't post a link yet..

Here you go. Sorry, I was out of town for the weekend.
It's usable, but tap it super hard and it'll go over backwards. I wouldn't be afraid to charge it this way or do some light reading if you're careful, but it works much better with my Note II.
I'm using the Belkin Charge & Sync Dock for Galaxy S4.
Although it does work as a charger and stand for the note 10.1 2014, it wasn't really designed for it. You probably wouldn't want to do any heavy table use while it's on the stand, and it is not the easiest thing to slide the tablet onto the micro-usb jack.
I search almost weekly for a really good dock. One that is like the Sony Xperia Tablet Z would be perfect, if it had a usb jack in the middle/bottom.
This is looking more promising, I've just sent off for it...will let you know how it performs when it arrives.

Could you post some pics please? I'd buy one of this but I scared about tablet connector I think I could be damaged.

It's much much more stable than this one for S3/S4 (I have it too)
Besides of that it has a movable and shock absorbing part with connector. See pic.1

Hi Lads & Lasses,
Quick Update on the dock I sent off for.
The dock holds the tablet securely & it's very stable, the pics show it connected up to the mains via usb cable & charging the tablet & no problems, but I noticed when when connected to the PC via usb data transfer is no problem but it doesn't charge, this may be a prob for some users..but it's one which I personally can live with especially for the price.
Hope this helps!!!
