Done it before. You'll need a laptop/netbook/computer to hardwire to the xbox to do it though.
Tether the Phone to the computer. Plug an ethernet cord into the PC's ethernet port, and the other end into the Xbox. Enable connection sharing, or bridge the two connections. And there you have it.
I used to do it all the time to stream Netflix in HD when I was stuck on a 1.5 Mbps connection at home.
And I love visiting Coconut Grove. One of my favorite places in Miami.

Has anyone used this adapter to get their bolt to TV?
http://www.expansys-usa.com/expansys-mhl-microusb-to-hdmi-adapter-black-221378/
saw a review that it worked for the sensation.
To the best of my knowledge, the tbolt does not have any programming or chip to send the video out through the micro usb port. So the piece would not work as it would get no signal from the phone

totally agree with the logic of its native programming to not have such a feature but is it possible for a application to be downloaded that could make one? maybe if its rooted anyways there might be a app.

I don't think my TV has dlna or wifi capabilities. What other options are there to play rented movies from Google videos on my bolt to the television. Don't have an Xbox or PS. Just phone, laptop, TV.
Stumped on this one. Last resort is checking to see if your digital cable provider (if you have one) has an app that will allow
media sharing via their DVR or cable box. I have Verizon FiOS and their app let's me share pics and video through my DVR into my TV. Limited, but it works.

I was looking at the Galaxy Nexus threads and saw this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_--zcmqIyRI and decided I would try it out on the Note. I did this on my Evo when I had one so this isn't a new idea but I kind like it. This isn't an in depth video, it just shows you how it works with what I have working with it. The commands that the Nexus user can use with his keyboard I couldn't get to work with the Note. Not sure if its an ICS thing or what. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laUNz7QJ9Wo&feature=youtu.be
I too have been playing around with this and it is a pretty novel idea. It isn't 100% there yet in terms of being a setup I could use full time, but it does let me travel without my laptop and plug in to a hotel TV.

I just found an old Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard (it's a small black box that you set on a table, and it projects a full-sized keyboard onto whatever flat surface it's sitting on using a laser) I used to use with my Windows Mobile 2003 PDA and tried to pair it with my Note today. It works flawlessly! This thing hasn't worked with any of my devices since WinMo 5, and even then it usually required a driver to be installed. Not with the Note! Just need to be sure I have the Samsung Keyboard selected (but it doesn't need to be open). I just keep getting more and more excited about this thing (except for the dark splotches on my display and low Quadrant scores).
Ok this is neat for traveling. Anyone know what cable we need to connect to the lcd monitor?

You have to have the MHL to HDMI adapter for it to work. I got mine on Amazon for $22 including shipping and got it within 5 days. Then of course a bluetooth keyboard and mouse..works good. Does your monitor have HDMI?
Edit: If your traveling I'm sure the tv might have an HDMI...unless you stay in a Days Inn as I do..

No problem. Like I said, Its not the first time its been done but I thought I would share and see if anyone had any different experiences than I did.
The Logitech Tablet Bluetooth keyboard/android 3.0+ works nice with the Note.
It even has 3 special keys to enable the menu, home and search buttons.

Hi guys,
Just got my prime 2 days ago and I'm very happy with it. Only thing is the wifi reception sucks and I will knew that before I purchased it and I'm OK with it. My question is can we just add a wifi dongle to the user port to get better reception? Is it possible or since its built in it won't work. I haven't tried it yet because I can't find the frikken dock except online. I'll have it shortly tho.
Thanks in advance :-D

Not entirely a lost cause - chances are there may be some adapter that can be made to work. Today, they added Wired Ethernet support, and many adapter work without any drivers.
Though in your case, I'd recommend a different channel, or investing in a wireless range extender/repeater.
On ethernet the stock browser has no lags...... I connected a Linksys USB200M v2 adapter....I am gettting full bars on WiFi from my NetGear WNDR4500 router and lags persist.....Hope this helps ASUS with this problem.
How does it compare to desktop browsing loading times
So far so good on the ethernet here.
Most people who have the problem probably wouldn't if they would just go into Settings>Advanced in the browser and change "Enable plug-ins" to On Demand .. this stops the flash windows from auto loading and lagging it out
Nicely implemented by Asus, using the USB Ethernet Adaptor that came with Asus Zenbook.

I am using that setting ever since I purchased device... still ethernet loads faster with no lags.... Have you tried on USB ethernet?
It hasn't lagged for me or given the wait window since someone recommended I do that on here so no actually don't need to.

It should work, but I would advice against using it because the network adaptor will increase the power drain quite a bit. Further more, the way it is connected to the prime makes it hard for the user to use the tablet properly without stressing the physical connection of the USB kit to the prime.

I bought a cheap one off ebay that was "compatible" with the Macbook Air for about a fiver and that is working fine.
So I bought a generic ps3 controller off eBay and I got it working over blue tooth over my phone but it lags really bad so I decided to connect it with a USB cable to my phone but for some reason it won't detect the controller.... Is there a way to fix this? I want to use the controlled wired to my phone and not over bluetooth

Generic ps3 controllers are known to not work very well with phones. Some do not even work very well with a ps3. I bought 2 for my son at different times. The 1st worked really good, the 2nd is so bad that he will not use it.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
The genetic part is where it gets tricky, you got lucky that it works on bluetooth at all... idk if you've tried, but you have to have it off before you plug it in, and don't have the Bluetooth service listening for it, sammy's supposed to have it down wired.
Basically don't try to use the Bluetooth app to run it wired, the rom takes care of it if it works at all

yes i tried using it but it only works when you use blue tooth on the controller (the controller lags really bad when you use it wireless, so i wanna connect it wired so it wont lag) its like the phone wont sense anything is plugged in when you plug in the controller but my Ps3 and computer will sense the controller just fine when connected to them wired.
