my S3 fell and screen turned purple then now completely dimmed. Phone is still working. I am runnung Slim rom 4.4.2. I powered on the phone in download mode and used adb pull /sdcard and was able to get all files from sdcard. What I am looking for now is a cable with micro usb from the phone's end and USB + HDMI (or micro HDMI) from the other end so I can connect the phone to my TV through HDMI and connect a USB mouse to the cable so I am able to control the phone. Is there such a cable ?
I think the genuine Samsung hdmi interface included a usb otg connector, but you'd have to check the specs. Bluetooth mouse/keyboard would also work.

I read USB port on the cable is a power port only. I can not use a BT mouse or keyboard cause the screen does not sense any touches, hence will not be able to turn BT on. That's why I am looking for a cable that can avail video & mouse simultaneously.

If you use a usb wireless mouse/keyboard do you need an externally powered hub. The keyboard/mouse is battery powered, so wouldn't you just need a micro to full usb adapter? Any answers would be appreciated
Edit: would there be any other issues (driver, etc.)
You need a Y-cable and to provide power for USB devices on WebOS in USB host mode. This video pretty much shows it all:

Are you looking to use a keyboard that has a wifi or ir dongle? I just tried a mk320 after powering the dongle with a powered usb hub, y connection usb and some usb gender changers. Nope, don't work (doesn't work for my hdtv, which supports usb keyboards either).
It's sorta a moot question anyways since you need a plug for the hub, isn't it?
I got the hp bt keyboard and that works fine, and is small enough to lug around, and has support for cards on the screen as well as Just Type.

Hello everybody.
I wonder if there is the possibility of using the HDMI output along with the USB on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 at the same time.
I did that in Xoom because it had a dedicated HDMI output and a USB, so it was easily able to connect a HD and while switching on the TV and be able to choose a movie at the time.
There is the possibility of doing the same thing in GT?
I am using the Cyangem 9.
Not on the 7510 without a splitter for the built in port. Not sure if that's even possible. You can always copy the movie to internal memory and play it or connect via wifi to a storage source. That's what I do.

Well using the samsung dock and connecting usb for power, not in charger but in usb port (possible need force usb charging enable, it ll work.
I don't think that Samsung dock has a separate usb port.

Is that an option from the shell or via some setting in alternate roms/kernels?

No it doesnt have usb port, only samsung style 30 pin port but you can use usb cable in pc port for charging it in order to feed hdmi signal with necessary power and also mount it for data transfer.
I have it and i can check it tomorrow if it works that way (if i remember correct it does).
Fingertyped on Samsung galaxy tab 10.1" 32GB WiFi
Tested it and work like a charm.
Gtab mounted on samsung dock.
Dock connected via HDMI to TV and via 30pin connector to PC USB.
Cheers.
If you connect the MHL cable to the device and the OTG cable to the MHL cable the device can't detect the OTG cable.
How can I make this work? I've seen videos in youtube that they connect their device to the TV at the same they have USB bluetooth mouse and keyboard connected.
Anyone tried using MHL cable and OTG cable at the same time?

According to some of wikipedia entries it should be possible to use mhl and usb otg at the same time with a 11-pin mhl-hdmi adapter.
Wikipedia said:
11-pin MHL-USB Connector
The Samsung Galaxy S III uses a connector that is similar to the original 5-pin MHL-USB connector, but it uses 11-pins in order to achieve a few functional improvements over the 5-pin design.
It supports the use of USB and MHL simultaneously (note that the new Samsung 11-pin MHL-HDMI adapter also has a USB-OTG port).
Samsung’s Galaxy S III can power the MHL-HDMI adapter. Although this can theoretically also be done with the standard 5-pin micro-USB connector, the Galaxy S III's 11-pin connector is believed to be the first smartphone that supports this functionality.

Here you go.
So, it should work. But I couldnt make it work at the moment
I also got one of these 11-pin connectors and like it seems only the S3 has these adapters, so why the **** doesnt it work?? :/
I already asked sammy on facebook, just wondering what they will answer^^
Hopefully we will have some pos. results, dude.
cheers

How would that work since the micro USB connection on the mhl cable is for power / charger?
In those YouTube videos is it possible that they have the mhl cable connected to the TV and power source, and the keyboard and mouse connected wirelessly via Bluetooth?
Confused because you said USB Bluetooth mouse and keyboard. From what I know they aren't USB.

Samsung should eventually release a dock to use both so unless someone figures it out first you'll just have to wait, because if it just took an 11 pin USB cable someone would have got it working already and we'd know about it, so I reckon it might have some extra circuitry to make it recognised by the phone.
Guys, as I already posted, the connector has 11 pins, so it should be possible to use OTG and MHL features at the same time. thats the only reason sammy brought out this connector and also cause of incompability with the 5-pin connector.
So they should bring the f*ck out somethin for the phone that activates this feature.
And a big problem I have with my mhl-connector is that I cant configure the output
on my 2 TVs at home I get 1080i, (both only 1080i capable), but the picture is kinda oversized so I cant see 100% percent of the picture, only 90% or smt like this.
But the funny part is, that I get on my 1680x1050p PC monitor only 576p screen, what actually sucks So it would be awesome if I could choose the resolution I want to have. But I guess its a thing of the connector (maybe it choose the resolutions iself).
cheers
so the one in the videos using keyboard and mouse are bluetooth thru phone?

I am SO HARD waiting for THAT "DOCK" hopefully will came out any day soon.
They should do iut fast. I'm waiting so hard for everything get connected with my Phone. It will be awsome if I don't need my Pc anymore.
To use the MHL cable you must have power connected to the adapter.

That's damn funny because I have wanted to know whether that would work as well, lol.
Did seriously consider trying but as I was on holiday if they broke, I wouldn't be able to get replacement so didn't try it.
In theory I would think it could work, but only if you could somehow wire in power to the hdmi adapter as it appears to need that to run the hdmi aswell as provide power to the phone, at least enough that once the usb adapter tries to demand power to run it isn't enough for the phone to output.
As to whether this is just a a stupid guess and assumption of how the devices and being a noob, I don't know.
If you can get a micro female to male adapter with a usb splitter for power then technically I can't see why it wouldn't work if the limitations are physical as oppose to software based (whole other issue I have no clue about).
EDIT: Wow, when I started that post no one had replied, err, seems a little redundant now, lol. My bad. Also, this 5 minute wait to point this out, have seemed really long...
guess we'll have to wait for that dock.

Hi Guys,
My old and faithful S2 recently developed a screen crack, although its completely usable but I am not planning to use it anymore due to safety issues rather I want to use it a as a HTPC by plugging it to my Library monitor.
I am planning to connect phone to HDMI port of monitor using MHL cable
MHL cable also have a micro USB connector,
I will connect a powered USB hub to this. so that phone can charge and connect to external drives and Wireless Keyboard adapters
My Questions is that Will it work, I mean will phone be able to charge and connect to USB disks and Wireless Keyboards/air mice at the same time ?
Try to use usb host controller maybe with this app you can controll all in the same time
