gr8... actually i have one but my OTG is not working so hoping cable is faulty...
BTW I am on EU leak currently..

I'm wondering too. Don't have a cable yet, but no sense in buying one if it doesn't work.

It won't work only with OTG cable.
You need a HUB (generic USB 2.0 hub) plus a cable between the OTG and HUB that powers both the HUB and the Phone externally.

Maybe this thread helps you more as it is the original one specific to OTG cabling on GB which should work also on ICS (It would be nice if anyone could confirm this).

On the 1st post find direct link to the findings.
Have a look around or ask something if you need.

I received my OTG cable today. As has been stated previously, it works but only when run through a powered hub.

[Q] Mhl not recognized after s-off?

Mhl output not being recognized after s-off. Anyone else with similar issue? Worked fine prior too. Worked with Temp root also. Any idea's?
Are you rooted stock or on a custom rom. If so which rom?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
I'm not sure. I'm soff running mags rom and mine is working fine
Apple sucks ballz
I nand back to stock rom, and working. I'm back stepping now to figure out what I did to flub it up in the first place. I had flashed a variety of new roms out. But had wiped each time. I don't think it was the roms, probably some of my own tweaking.
Did you flash custom kernel? That probably did it if so.

Pretty sure you have to give the MHL adaptor a power source for it to work. As in plug the usb into the wall. So you have the hdmi cable to the tv and the usb cable to your AC adaptor.

[Q] Atrix as USB host

I have OTG USB host cable for Motorola Xomm. Is there any way this coulb be used with Atrix??
Don't take my answer as 100 percent. I want to say no dice on the usb host deal, but the hd dock and lapdock have usb ports for key/mouse. I think somebody mounted an external hdd but had problems. Hopefully somebody else can shed more light on this.
I voided my warranty.
It'll need a 5vdc power supply
Sent from my Motorola Atrix 4G MB860 using XDA App
Yeah there is a post on this already but the answer is that you just need a powered USB hub and that cable and you can use it as a host.

So ho come Galaxy S2 does not need powered hub??
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giJXF5pIITc
I know nothing about Samsung, but my Atrix works fine as USB host. All you need is powered USB hub and cheap OTG adapter. I bought one from Dealextreme (sorry, can't post links). It works great with any USB keyboard or mouse or FAT formated memory drive.

MHL question

Just wondering if all MHL adapters are the same. Meaning, can I use a generic non-HTC adapter on my Rezound?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
I believe so. Someone posted that a monoprice one worked on his GSII. I know that is a different phone but it is likely that HTC hasn't blocked generic ones if samsung didn't.

The monoprice adapter works for my Rezound.
Thx for the help, just order a 10$ mhl adapter. After this bad boy set me back 600$ i'm trying to squeeze all the accessories I can outta this weeks paycheck.
I'll let you guys know how it goes when I get it.
The thunderbolt/EVO 3D htc mhl adapter works.
How can I control my phone with out touching it?
(Watching netflix and don't want to get up every time)
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
The Monoprice MHL adapter works like a charm. You can't use your HTC cable in the adapter though. So pick up a long enough 5 pin micro usb cable( I am using a 6' wish I would have bought bigger) and long enough HDMI cable for your set up so you don't have to stand next to your TV operate the phone and watch it on the TV.
to further add to the question, if you're going through the MHL->HDMI to your telie, will it also keep your phone charged?
Yes you plug the adapter to the phone and the wall

Yeah its a lot going on for our phone to display on a TV. My wife's Bionic has hdmi out, that is so easy! Just bought a hdmi to micro hdmi cable from monoprice for 3 bucks for my wife's phone. The Rezound looks like a octopus just to display to the TV!
Where u guys getting the monoprice MHL? Amazon? I haven't connected any phone to my tv since my original EVO days. Would love to do it with this one. Thanks fellas

No, the video parts of the NFL app will not work. I have tried it and when you try to access video content, the screen you are connected to view blank.
Thats weird. I thought u can view anything that's on your phone... Even the home screen!? Is there anything else that doesn't work through the mhl?

I recieved mine from Monoprice, works great. But it HAS to be connected to power (charger or USB both work) to function, not just if you want the phone to charge while using the adapter.
What I did was use a short HDMI cable, short micro USB cable plugged into one of my TVs USB ports for power, and then mounted the adapter to the back of my TV with velco. I then use a micro usb extension cable to connect the adapter to my phone, cutting down a TON on the octopus effect. And I can always disconnect the adapter to take it with me somewhere.
Is this the adapter everyone is buying, its $14 not $10 so want to make sure I'm not missing anothr one on their site. http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8675&seq=1&format=2

OK I did what you said exactly , tried two USB flash , well one of them gave me power Consumption error , and the other one didn't work
Will try more and update.
Thanks
OMG MAGIC
It Actually works , however not all USB devices work , I tried three USB flashs only one of them worked , I also tried a mouse and it worked too :laugh:
Thanks noim for helping me :good:
Well all devices will not work.. Some flash devices require more power.so the phone does not allow high power consumption devices to work since it will drain ur battery..
Well its nice to know my trick (i would not call it a trick tho) worked.... Always happy to help...
