Anyone pick up a car power adapter yet?
Getting the bugs worked out of my GPS, now I need an adapter...
Here's the car mount I picked up...
It's a 12V device so you don't need anything except a plug that will fit and a power port adapter. Tip is positive. You can make one from parts at Radio Shack if you wanted to.

Correct... I might have to do that if there's not an actual power adapter ready to go for the Tab.... I might take a look at the assortment of Igo adapters.
I really like that mount, seems like it fits really well. What is it and where did you get it?

I haven't tried it, but I saw this one listed at Radio Schack:
http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3802146
It has the same volt/amp rating.

I got tired of buying new adapters for each device I buy especially as usually need USB power for Droid1 + whatever else so went with a simple dual out with inverter...

I recall you posted about that in the ZT-180 section. In fact, I think that I inspired you to find it.
I don't know if these tablets can be charged through the USB, like phones can.
Picked up the one from RS that wasserkapf mentioned....
Had to get a seperate tip because the 4 in the package didnt fit...
Worked fine.... Thanks for the feedback...
Where did you get the extra tip?

You would not use the USB for Gtab. Instead used your AC 110 adapter that came with Gtab and plug it in the 110 outlet.

Just picked up a car DC adapter from BigLots for 4$. It is a vector VEC009. It comes with multiple tips and one works perfectly.

Here is the proper link to that adapter:
http://www.amazon.com/Vector-Mfg-VEC009-Universal-Adapter/dp/B000B76UUQ
The price is right, but if a similar one is available locally, at a reasonable price, I would encourage people to buy locally. By supporting local merchants, you help ensure that they survive. It is also easier to return to a local merchant if you have problems with a product.
Thanks.. what is the wattage on this one? Does it deliver the full 2amps that we need? I have a 1.5 amp one and it gets hot fast.
as low as $5.18 on ebay

$5.18 shipped from ebay.
and $6.48 shipped as well.
One thing to ask about though, the specs says max 2A, did you confirm it supplies 2A @ maximum voltage 12v ? were you able to charge the GTab while the it running with blutooth enabled ? The thing is if it doesn't supply the required 2A, the battery might no be charged properly if at all when the GTab is powered up.
Thanks,
I was able to charge the tab while it was running. You adjust the voltage to 12volts and attach the proper tip. For 4$at big lots it was worth checking out.

Thanks for your reply I already ordered one for $5
Hello everybody,
im searching for a "normal" hdmi-cable for the 30-pin connector. i dont wanna have a dock or something.
does anybody know were i can find such cable?!
I have send the DOCK sample to the manufacturer, to make a 30pin--HDMI cable out.
But need sometimes. About 15days later.
XJARL,
Are you sure a cable is possible? Others have suggested that the port needs power and other circuitry (as in the dock) to make the HDMI functional.
Also, I thought that you mentioned you were having it made a month or so ago? What is the delay?
That would be great if there was just an HDMI cable that plugs into the bottom port. too bad they didnt make a HDMI port on the side before. I wont use it enough to get a dock, but if I had just a cheaper cable that would work I would be more inclined to use it. the screen is big enough to where im happy with the media and any movies that I really want to download and watch I will already have on my laptop which has HDMI out for a big screen.
Yes, i'm sure

I had given the DOCK to a factory. They spend a lot of time. Since they are not sure whether there is sufficient market, so delayed. But now, they decided to put it produced.

I went to 4 Shacks and everyone said there was nothing made for this port. Commercially that is.
I think I would find a cable more useful than a dock. As mentioned above, though, they will have to find a way to deal with the power issue. I'll keep an eye on this thread to see how it goes.
A cable would be nice for sure
Xjarl - any word on this cable? I am sure we could build up some support here if needed
They just sold Over 10,000 of the Gtablets on Woot the other day. There were several posts directing people to this site as well as discussing the preference of a simple cable VS a dock.
I would hope the market would bear enough to get a run in at this point.

Yeah, bnovak in this thread is talking about de-constructing one and analyzing the circuitry to figure out the pin schematic so a cable could possibly be created:

It looks like it comes with an HDMI cable as well. It doesn't say so in the description, but after examining the picture, it looks like the empty port is micro usb, and that is an HDMI cable that comes with the adapter. At least I hope so for that price.
I still don't think it's a good deal, cause I don't need an HDMI cable, and if I did, I wouldn't pay an extra $20 for it. Plus I all ready bought the $20 T-Mobile MHL Adapter
I think the discription is a little repetitive as to what it is for.

Yeah, now I can't find it either. I checked a few hours ago and it was there. Sometimes it wouldn't show and you would have to go back and re-pick HTC, the Sensation, then scroll down to data. But that doesn't seem to do the trick anymore, so I dunno wtf.
EDIT:

I just searched the part number on their site, supa37117

expansys carries both, the official HtC one, but its not in till august, and the other one like the one on the tmob site (they had both, too at one point) but thats like a 2 week wait, too.
Amazon has one listed, but won't actually ship until sometime later in the month....

Thanks for the link. It seems this little thing is a hot commodity. It told me they were unable to take my order online and I would need to call it in. I'm guessing their out of stock. It sounds like you were smart to order yours before the release date of the Evo 3D.
I'll be waiting for Monoprice.com to come out with one. My guess it could probably be under $10 shipped with an HDMI cable.

but can you charge your phone at the same time with the TMO one like it appears you can with the HTC one? I'm just assuming that's a microusb port next to the HDMI port as seen in the picture.
Just bought this for less than five dollars. Not sure if it will work though. What do you all think?

I bought the HDMI MHL Adapter from Monoprice, great price and stuff, but it doesn't seem to work right. For one the power cord doesn't fit good in the HDMI MHL Adapter, it seems like it can't go in far enough to snap and hold so it falls out a lot. Also it took many tries of unplugging and plugging in the phone to get it to work with it. It also has frozen my phone quite a few times, especially if I have the HDMI MHL Adapter hooked up and someone tries to call me. I bought this phone because I wanted to be able to play my movies on friends TVs when I go over their house, but this just doesn't seem to work.
Does anyone else have experience with the Monoprice HDMI MHL Adapter?
I think I'm just gonna buy the one from Samsung.
Thanks for the heads up. Just started shopping around for one.

I got mine to work after a long time of playing with it, also you can't move the phone at all because the power cord will keep falling out of the MHL adapter
Make sure you report it to monoprice. They listen. It may take awhile though.
I voided my warranty and your mum.

Silly question: I bought a similar one from newegg, but I don't know how to get it to work. For example I'm watching a youtube video on the phone, how do I make it output to the TV? (Of course I had it connected to it through an HDMI cable).
I got mine in the mail last night and it works just fine.
The regular samsung usb cable connected without problems.
Make sure to connect the power on the adaptor before connecting it to the phone.

Ordered but it's going to be a while. Didn't realise until after I placed the order that it's coming from China. Estimated delivery between June 20 and July 24. Order status says shipped already, but I've had stuff stuck in NY Customs for a few weeks on more than one occasion.

The power point is used to power the connected devices and doesn't power/charge the tablet.
Plus it's only powerful enough to power USB devices, it will not power 2.5 " HDD's for example.

Did you order one of these? If not, I'm curious as to where your getting the specs from. I'm hoping your wrong of course, lol. My external 2.5" HDD runs perfectly with 500ma, so if I had my 2100ma USB wall wort powering this adapter, I would assume I would get 500ma (if the power is being limited) or more out of the 2 usb ports. Unless Samsung is planning on selling an overpriced breakout box, I don't understand why they would cripple such a nice tablet with this one port for everything crap.

I ordered the 1 port version, not the 2 ports version mentioned above.
It's true the tablet can power 2.5 HDD's when connected to any/most OTG cables, but I also wanted to use it with a phone (which needs the HDD to be connected to a power source).
After I sent the 1 port version back, I looked at buying the 2 port version, but after reading the small print, I found out the tablet couldn't be powered/charged, the power point was used to power the connected devices.
Two examples of the 2 ports version I looked at:

The USB Power Port only supplies extra power to the dual OTG ports. It will not charge your mobile phone or tablet.

The 2 port version, obviously will work when connecting 2 devices at once, but the power point, won't be any use, as the tablet will already be powering the devices.
That's my understanding of it.

Just got this adapter in: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Ports-Micro-USB-2-0-HUB-Charger-Apdater-Cable-OTG-PC-Laptop-Smartphone-Table-B-/161222133020
It does not charge the tablet. It does supply power to the 2 usb ports even when disconnected from the tablet. It is an inexpensive alternative to the Samsung otg to usb adapter I purchased for $19.99.
Hopefully Samsung or some other company comes out with an adapter that can charge the tablet and has usb and hdmi ports.

I wish they'd make one that also included HDMI.
So you could charge your device, connect a HDD/USB and play the contents to a TV.

Nice find. I'm with 0-0-0 on the included HDMI. Just got this reply from them "nothing planned for hdmi. our current adapter will work with your 12.2 inch tablet on just usb though." Maybe if enough people contacted them stating their interest, they might develop one. Easy to send a message right from the product page requesting this.

Maybe if enough people contacted them stating their interest, they might develop one. Easy to send a message right from the product page requesting this.

Wouldn't any of the USB to HDMI converters hooked to one of the USB ports work??? (just asking, have no intention of hooking it up)

I don't think an MHL adapter works with a regular USB port. Not 100% sure though. Just ordered a male USB to female micro USB to try, lol. Even if it doesn't work, that's one adapter I don't already own. If it works through this adapter I purchased: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Ports-Micro-USB-2-0-HUB-Charger-Apdater-Cable-OTG-PC-Laptop-Smartphone-Table-B-/161222133020 then it should work through that Lava adapter.
hdmi, usb , & charge at the same time

I wish they'd make one that also included HDMI.
So you could charge your device, connect a HDD/USB and play the contents to a TV.

here u go guys...meant to post this almost a week ago when i saw the topic. i ordered one for my tab pro 8.4 lte (should work for every variant though) & it works great...u can use hdmi (takes the regular full sized cable) with a hard drive/flash drive or large sdcard connected simultaneously while charging your device but the charger doesnt even need to be plugged up for hdmi to work. The bonus for me was that i won mine in an auction & only paid $4 for it (normally around $10 as u can see from the link which still isnt bad)...if there is any negative about this thing its all the weight/stress resting on that lil micro usb connection which means it basically needs to be placed perfectly flat. They also have a dock version which should solve that issue for around $20 which i plan to order & test at some point...hope this helps other users out with your decision

@burningstep
yep...this DEFINITELY works simultaneously. I use it to watch movies from my usb external on my pico projector that are both connected to the tab pro...u wont be disappointed, in fact, i was surprised that it didnt even need the charger attached because it was necessary for both of my other tabs (the original 7 & the tab plus) although u will want to plug it up anyway or your battery is gonna get burned up pretty quick

Great, thank you very much.
And you're sure, that HDMI and USB-OTG and Tablet-Charging works at the same time? Thus, I'll be able to play a video from an external harddisk to my TV over HDMI out.
