You are going to need a USB 1.x/2.0 Female Type A to Male Type Micro-B adapter cable.
The XTZ's USB port does not supply enough amperes to power most portable USB HHDs, so when selecting an HDD, make sure it requires very low amperes.
The WiFi mouse's Windows-based adapter will not work with the XTZ unless the mouse's manufacturer can provide Android drivers. You need to check with the manufacturer to see if they have any, but I highly doubt they have Android drivers. You will have better luck using a Bluetooth or USB mouse.
You can use a non-powered or powered USB hub to gain more USB ports. A powered USB hub would be a better choice because it would eliminate the problem of powering a USB HDD. Most powered USB hubs are powered by AC adapters, but you can find some that are battery powered.
There are several discussions in this forum about USB MHL to HDMI adapters. Search the forum to find out which adapters work with the XTZ.
You cannot charge a device using a charger through a USB hub. You will need a powered USB hub specifically designed for charging devices.
Right but the question is does the Xperia z tab can be charging the some time when is connect to tv via hdmi?

Try using a Micro USB Host OTG Y-Cable with Micro USB Power for Sony Phones & Tablets from Valarm, which they say has been tested with the XTZ SGP312.

Hi together,
ive asked me if it is possible to use an adapter for 1x micro usb (plug) -> 2x micro usb (jack).
Could the phone handle 2 USB devices at the same time?
Maybe then it is possible to use the HDMI output and the USB host parallel?
For example to use an TV as screen and an HDD as the source for a movie.
This would be nice.
Thanks in advance.

When the connector is used for HDMI I doubt it can be used as USB at the same time, I'n sorry.
Maybe in a few months cyanogenmod provides a hack, if there will be an dual adapter soon.
We will see. Thank you.

The hardware needs to allow this if it'd become possible. You need a really smart USB dongle that knows how to split the HDMI output from the USB output.
Sounds a little too difficult to ever happen.
Hmm thats right. I think i still dream xD
But thank you.

it is not possible. because as stated on this forum many times before, the type of usb connection is determined by the resistor between pin 4 and 5 of the micro usb connector. the strength can tell the phone, that there is either a charger, a pc connection, car kit, jig, usb otg or mhl connection present.
and i believe, this is an important thing to keep in mind for so many things:
for instance, why the original car kit triggers car mode and generic car charging cables don't or why not just any micro usb male to usb a female will work as a otg cable or why flashing should be done with the original usb cable...
so if you were to buy or build a micro usb hub, since it has no resistor in the very plug that connects to the phone, it cannot be used for anything but charging and quite frankly, i wouldn't connect more than one charger to the phone.
however, if you want to use your phone for presentations or watching movies and still be able to use it, get a bluetooth keyboard and mouse or a bluetooth presenter or do it the other way around and use a usb input device and transfer your media using allshare. everything else is physically impossible, so neither CM nor XDA can do anything about it. the only device that can do what you want is the new motorola. it has a separate micro usb and micro hdmi port and a docking station, so you can use it as a full notebook.
Thats obvious. Thank you.

Hi!
It looks like it's possible to use some USB Ethernet adapters with some Android tablets, but is it possible to have it running on AC power at the same time?
I suppose that this can be achieved with some special OTG cable, if it is possible at all. Have anyone been successful with this?
Please share what's your setup, i.e what tablet do you have, what Ethernet adapter works with it, and what kind of OTG cable are you using.
Direct links (Amazon, eBay, etc...) are very welcome for Ethernet adapters and OTG cables.
Thanks in advance!
PS: Hopefully this is the right forum to post these type of questions.
Hi, I tried with a otg cable which had an additional port for power but it's just for when u use hdds who needs more power then 450 mA to run. Android is not allowing to charge the phone during USB otg usage.
Hi,
Has anyone managed to successfully find a solution to give an hdmi out display from the note pro 12.2, at the same time as a usb port via otg cable.
What I essentially want to do is to have the note pro at my desk connected via hdmi to a monitor, and still be able to use usb devices such as pen drives etc. Is there any kind of cable combination that will allow for this? I've not been able to find anything.
Thanks
Duncan
I have these:
Usb 3.0 Hub:

Usb OTG (with connection for external charger, a must have if you're gonna power devices via USB)
http://es.aliexpress.com/item/CY-Mi...th-USB-Power-for-Galaxy-Note3/1992861830.html
USB A to microUSB adapter, this one is for the HDMI cable:

You should try all-share-cast or screen cast(via miracast/chromecast) for video and audio. That would do everything easier.
I have a freeview TV adapter plugged into my note 3. Problem is I can't charge it so I have to stop watching TV and wait until its charged. Can I get anything like a micro USB hub. I've seen a few but they are only regular USB ports and not USB micro which I need for my devices. Thanks in advance.
I have MHL to HDMI adapter which hooks up to TV and to a phone charger (other side goes to phone) so it is possible, but I can't say if usb hub would work, since I have not test it.
You can connect a regular USB hub to your micro usb to usb OTG adapter. I tried connecting both a mouse and a keyboard to the hub and it works fine
USB hub won't allow you to charge the device while they are connected. you can either use MHL to HDMI cable as Pete4k advice and enjoy MHL 2.0 while charging or buy one of those USB OTG adapter reader but where you can connect several peripherals and charge at the same time.
I want to install my Samsung Tab 2 (P3100) as a head unit in my car.
I saw many DIY toturials with a micro USB OTG cable, but none with a OTG cable for my tablet model.
Does anyone help me find a way or a OTG cable for TAB 2 that simultaneously charge the tablet.
I also want to plug a USB Hub.
Thanks

You could try the following device. I have never tried one but would be interested in whether it works or not (and the cost):
