brilliant mate, cheers
can you link the eBay item please
Search for mifare sticker or nfc sticker see what the options are
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=160817201613&index=1&nav=SEARCH&nid=72625945009
Should do the job, but be aware most stickers have small memory on them 64k ish... Enough for tasker profiles etc
I should later today have some mifare access control cards and tags these normally have larger capacity
If they work of I may make some available. These normally have much more memory on them between 1 and 4meg

Bit stupid of Samsung to make both the app and the tags USA only....
I already have an app on my phone that does this and been using it for over a week
NFC Task Launcher was like £1 in the play store
The app also links you to plenty of places to buy the tags from, if your in the UK I recommend RapidNFC.

Depends on what you order from them, I just got 10 white discs (stickers) that are capable of having anything written to them, even complex tasks for 65p a tag.
So I like that you can put the sticker/dot on your car dock and it automatically enables bluetooth, sets landscape mode, turns on Pandora or whatever else you program it to do automatically.
But... it sounds like when you remove the phone, it doesn't automatically go back to what the previous settings were. That's too bad.
The tag acts like a set of programming instructions. If you want it to go back to "normal" mode once you leave the car, you can create another tag for those instructions and 'tap' it once you leave the car.

Thanks for the reply!
About Effing time Samsung gets this released. And I'm guessing it's gonna be another 3 months before they release the wireless charger, Dock/Cable to simultaneously use MHL and other OTG and the UK release of the MHL adapter tip, I mean massive Firmware delays is typical and expected from Samsung but just don't get why they delaying accessories.
I've been reading that it doesn't generate 1080p even though it says it does...it only outputs in 720p...I heard its very laggy at times...and people were quite disappointed with it...sorry to rain on your parade...

Demonstration
Works in 1080p
Its works in Full HD contrary to reports on here. It does have a noticable delay of about 1 second so not sure if it will be useful for gaming, but for internet browing, movie watching or productivity use it could be ideal.
I didn't order from mobilefun because I found a much cheaper price than them.
Just ordered mine last night from handtec.co.uk so hopefully see what it's all about tomorrow.
Not sure whether a UK dongle will work with the US TV system. Otherwise, I will order one from UK.
Can anybody confirm if this is the real deal??
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-EAD-T...1&sr=8-1&keywords=galaxy+s3+wi-fi+display+hub
Its only $89.99 and since i have prime i get free shipping. Not sure what it means when it says "Usually ships within 1 to 3 months"
Can anyone tell me if this will work with cm10
Sent from my GT-I9300
To clarify for others. The dongle does need a power supply. It comes with one. It also includes an HDMI cable. You can have mutliple dongles on TVs around the house and the phone lets you choose which one you connect to. However, at this time, you cannot label the dongles with a nice name like "Living Room" and have to use the pre-determined name with numbers instead.
There is some lag depending on the quality of the connection with the phone. You would not want to play FPS with this. I would say the lag was around 100-150ms. Fast panning/moving can result in some visible compression artifacts. Its behaviour seems identical to the HTC Media Link technology. One does not appear better than the other here.
The dongle DOES support 1080p, but the S3 does NOT. This means you will not see anything above 720p. The dongle acts as a mirror of the 720 line phone display EXCEPT when you are playing a video. For video, the phone displays a very dim "Allshare" logo on a black background. You can bring up a video slider to rewind/fast-forward etc but the video itself is only displayed on the TV. Despite having the separate video feed, it is still locked to 720. HTC originally had the idea that you could surf on the phone, check emails while playing a video, but this never actually worked. Samsung haven't even tried to do this...pressing the home button cuts the video feed and returns to mirroring.
My concern is if you play a 90 minute movie like this, will there be screen burn due to the permanent but very dim "Allshare" logo displayed on the screen. There is no way to switch this display off when playing a video. Perhaps because its so dim it doesn't matter, but it seems odd to me.
Really need some help here please, i do not have a allshare cast app in my app drawer, only something called allshare play which just force closes saying application not executed properly. Im running jellybean and not ics. Could somebody help me please. Thanks.

No problem. Enjoy, but I would be interested in hearing your opinion about it
before rushing to buy this - most firmwares haven't enabled allshare cast yet !!
allshare Cast Hub
Did someone knew how to connected PC via WiFi with this module?
You could get two 'android on stick' mini usb computers for that price and they'd do essentially the same thing. Seems like a bit of a rip-off to me

After watching more videos, it appears that it will only work with TW bsed Roms with the Allshare Cast installed.

I'd also like to know. I have Prime too :highfive:
Anyone?
Anybody have one or planning on getting one? I'm kinda bummed I'll have to get another one (already have MHL) dumb competing standards. The few available on Amazon seem overpriced (in the $30 range) for a chunk of plastic and some wire.
Buy the one from analogix. That is the official one and it does cost $30. It is pricy when compared to regular MHL adaptors, but its worth it if you plan on using it.

What the cable gets you that the chromecast doesn't is direct streaming of content. chromecast does not currently support file playback through gallery. All direct streaming from the device (not from the internet) is "beta"
So say you want to play an MP4 file, you'd need this

Probably not but I suspect playing local content from your phone will but added soon but that's just a guess, games prob not due to lag and graphical limitations
i debate turning back to wires like this when i do enjoy what my chromecast does while also having hopes for the wireless display option to be 1:1 for all functions
I didn't even notice the port was not MHL. What nincompoop opted to go with this rather than MHL? Maybe I don't know something I should here, but hasn't MHL been around for a couple years now? And is there anything allegedly superior about slimport that would make it desirable over MHL?
This is just a little disappointing to me because both of my Samsung phones use MHL and at this point my backpack is already the subject of Guantanamo style field stripping every time I fly international.

Since its Nexus line, Google would follow what they did with the N4. Why don't you just check it?
MyDP (SlimPort) adapters are appearing on eBay for less than $20USD which I think is pretty good value. SlimPort has some clear advantages over MHL (scaling/no need to have charger plugged in etc).

Haha no worries. That's true. It will take a long time to arrive. They've just been really hard to get even through Asia so just thought I'd let people know since I came across them. Thanks.
I'm looking for one too. Even the one on ebay cost around $20 from china. Not counting waiting for over a month for it. Bought more than a few items from china, and only about 50% of them ever work.
Just be careful with the non analogical brand slimport adaptors. People from the N4 were having problems with certain ones. You can check in the N4 accessories thread as there is more information about them there.
I can confirm that the official one works perfect.

Has anyone received the free car pack that is supposed to come with Asphalt 8 via the Galaxy Gifts promo? I have tried and tried and have found no way of unlocking this. I hope this is not another case of Samsung screwing Canadians.
Here is the Gifts link that shows what we should get. Check the Asphalt icon and see.

That did indeed unlock the class A car pack. Thank you. That does seem like an obscure way to include a free IAP. I jumped direct into the game the first time.
Do you have to purchase the game first, or it comes free with the tablet?

Asphalt 8 is free anywhere, be it in ios or android. Car packs are not, it's an in game purchase with real money.
Basically, Samsung unlocks a free car pack for you for free if you buy a tab s, i dont know about the other Samsung tablets though.
I had a different problem wth said game. The version on my Tab S was an older one, which I was unable to update or connect to my Google+ account for the trophies. I could tell it was old because I had played the game before on my Nexus 10. So I hit the Play store but it wouldn't recognize my installation and offer to update it. I installed anyway and had 2 versions of Asphalt 8 side by side. After I rooted, I removed the old one. No free DLC for me, I guess.
As the title states.. Just to pass the time and have some fun while we all wait impatiently for our new phones. What will you be using your $50 Play Credit on.
Any awesome apps that are worth spending the credit on? Gems in clash of clans? Etc.
I plan on saving it for something a little more lasting than gems in a game. I'm thinking books, music or movies. Maybe an app or two if I find one I like. I usually get at least $1 a month using the Google Opinion Rewards app.
You can probably buy three Squeenix games with that money. ?
Sent from LG G Pad 8.3
Hopefully trading it in for $35-40 Google Wallet so that I can buy a case and USB cable from the Google store.
DO UK customers not get this offer?
I'll just keep it for paid apps/games I see over time. I don't do the IAP free to play games.
can we get a chromecast with it?

Good topic! Mostly movies and games for my 3 rug rats
I think google should have given the 50 credit for google pay to help boosting the usage.
They were gonna go to My Little Pony gems until Amazon came out with an "actually free" version in Amazon Underground lol
Likely movies. Maybe an odd game or app here or there (not IAPs, just the actual things). Don't need music, already subscribe to All Access.
i will buy an other nexus .. LOL
Buy the Pewdipie's game, haha.
Buy one of the new chromecasts i think... the store shows that i can use play balance to pay for devices when i go to check out..
