Anyone know if a USB to DVI (any video) will work with the TFP? Would like to put together a make shift docking station with Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, etc. Would like to run all of it through the USB port though.

1. So I've heard that a HDMI cable works the same way as the HD dock, does it let you open theater mode(forgot the actual name) or hdmi mirroring with just a cable?
No mirroring yet. Theater mode pops up as an option when plugging in a HDMI cable. with a long enough cable it works as a great remote control.
2. Does the 'Theater' mode play video that was not created on the device?
Yes, but you should check the supported codec list on motorolas website, I have had some problems with some obscure audio codecs.
3. Does the Android window in webtop mode let you scale the app or is it a fixed size?
Yes its scalable, but there is borders on the screen that prevent it from stretching to the entire screen
4. Has anyone tried using storage(such as a keydrive) or wireless keyboard/mouse(2.4GHz not bluetooth) in the usb ports on the HD dock or the Laptop Dock?
FAT32 usb drives seem to work, haven't gotten to try a usb 2.0 hdd. Wireless 2.4GHZ peripherals work fine.
so HDMI mirroring is out i know that but still havent been able to test any of the rest of this in my trip to AT&T, as someone had locked the fingerprint reader to their print lol
so i wanna use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard on my sgs2.. i was thinking of gettng an MHL cable and hooking it up to my monitor, and hooking up the keyboard and mouse to the phone, to give me android on desktop.
will any bluetooth keyboard/mouse work? or do i need to get some specific ?
Any idea if this can be used to display nook's screen on a tv?
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/micro-...-adapter-with-usb-charging-cable-black-140197
It would be really cool if it did, but as far as I know the Nook does not have MHL.
A micro USB connector is only five pins, but if it's implemented in the device they can be switched between:
USB peripheral or host interface
Analog audio headset with microphone
MHL video output
Debugging UART serial port
Unfortunately, the Nook has only been proved to support the USB interface.
USB to VGA
well I have seen these USB to VGA on ebay
could this work?
It would be very interesting to get a USB to video adaptor working.
It might be a long road to getting it to mirror the Nook screen transparently.
The first step is to find something with Linux drivers.
The next step is to get it to expose its frame buffer on the system.
At that point, it would be possible to make an application to copy images between the two frame buffers.
Even that might have some utility for Power Point style presentations.
nook PC?
sounds plausible. would be also nice to be able to use Nook like PC.
Hi,
i have a Cube U23GT tablet. It supports OTG. The tablet can be charged only trough DC in with an adaptor, so not trough usb port. I have an OTG cable, and if i plug with that a mouse in, or keyboard, it works perfectly. I saw on youtube some videos where people connected mouse and keyboard at the same time to their tablets, for example: youtube.com/watch?v=benblX95ORM
So as i saw this video i thinked: all i need is an USB HUB, i bought one: logilink.eu/showproduct/UA0138.htm?seticlanguage=en
I plugged the HUB in trough OTG and the result was: the LED of the hub lights are on, but then, when i try to plug the mouse OR (not just "AND") the keyboard, it wont work. The infra of the mouse is lights too but the tablet dont detect it, i cant use it.
So can you tell me what can be the problem? Its not a powered HUB i know, but on the videos that i saw (for example what i linked here) arent powered hubs too, and works.
If you can, please help me, thanks!
Hi all, I have a MK809III tv stick with Android 4.4.2 running. I use it as a mini PC with a LCD screen. I have attached to its USB OTG ports a quadrate 2.0 4 ports USB HUB (google for this and you can see it) , and connected to it, a PS/2 keyboard (using an usbtoPs2 adapter), an usb mouse, a usb ethernet dongle, and a usb sound card dongle. When I use this combo, all works fine, the mouse can drag and select, also wheel works, the keyboard works fine, the ethernet run smooth, and the sound works as player and mic recorder, the only thing not works is to reboot the tv stick, and launch android again (with other MK89III tv stick this also works flawlessly), to get this, I must to unplug RJ45 or usb ethernet. But this last question is not my main problem. The main problem is that I can not make the combo work anyway if I change usb hub model, If I use a 2.0 usb square hub (no name brand) with a little blue led installed, all works fine, but using other hub (I have tested two others), thare is no way to work. The main situation is that the hub stops work, and all item connected not works at all. But commonly, mouse works with a bad behaviour in button response, usb sound disconnects suddenly, or usb ethernet lagg or not works at all. My question is about this behaviour with usb hubs, if there is a special requirements in hardware to match an usb hub with this kind of android devices, or if thare are some drivers that can solve this.
Thank in advance.
Solved
I have solved the two main problems in order to use my MK809III RK3188 as a mini pc with usb hub and rj45 ethernet. The hub must to be a chip on board one, no an all-in-one glued ultra-cheap type, this is a mark of better quality and response, then you can conect keyboard/mouse, usb or ps2 with usb converters, usb sound, and usb pendrives. The ethernet must be an ASIX AX88772C, this a true usb ethernet 100mbps (7MB/s real) device, since I use it there is no lag, no boot errors, no delays or shorts in Tx/Rx. That´s all.
