Bought two of these from amazon and they arrived today. Hooked up to both of my nexus players and it was totally plug and play. Not even a reboot required. This made my WMC recordings work in Plex whereas before they would never play. Also live tv in xbmc no longer buffers every few seconds.

Glad this worked but $25 purchase on top of a deivce that is already $99? what kind of router are you runnnig? why dont you use wireless n on 5ghz? would love to see a wan speed test from this adapter compared to wireless ac.
picked up a ea9200 (ac3200) tri band router just for the two nexus players (had a wrt1900) and dont foresee any need to go wired.
Related question: Is the USB port USB 3? It can't take full advantage of the adapter if not. Even 100mbit would struggle (even though USB 2.0 is rated 480 mbit, it's half duplex and the speed will drop substantially if there's any bidirectional communication).
I haven't had any problems on wireless, but having a wired option is useful if I need it down the road.

I have 2 ubiquiti APs in a mesh configuration they run 5ghz N but while its enough to stream most content it was not enough to stream live tv from win media center with hdhomerun tuners to xbmc, nor could it sustain streams of recorded tv shows from win media center via plex. I could upgrade to AC or add an AC wap to my mesh but that's more $. Aside from this small issue everything else in my house is perfect on wifi. It doesn't make sense to rip and replace my wifi network. A $25 adapter is the cheaper route and everything streams perfectly now.

i owned a Netgear r8000, cant wait to receive the Nexus Player and test. Even though i own 2 fire tvs i cant wait till i replaced them all with nexus player if it works correctly. I have already tested 1080p over 5ghz on the fire tv with xbmc with no skips.

That adapter uses the ASIX AX88178 Chipset. There is a USB 3.0 adapter that uses the ASIX AX88179 chipset:
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00KZGHTRQ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1K7RYQVZ52FF1
so I'm wondering if that'd work with the NP. I realize you can't get more than 480mbps over a USB 2.0 port, however I'd rather have a USB 3.0 adapter for future use somewhere else if needed instead of being hobbled by a a USB 2.0 gigabit adapter.
Has anyone tried a USB 3.0 ethernet adapter of any kind on their NP yet?
Thanks.
Most, if not all, gigabit adapters would likely be USB 3. It's possible to get good streaming over USB 2 as it's primarily going to be a unidirectional communication, particularly on a purpose built device not really doing much else with the connection. It should be doing a good amount of buffering to compensate for the half duplex issue. USB 3 devices should have no problem working on a USB 2 port.

Thanks for your reply. There are indeed USB 2.0 gigabit adapters such as the gentlemans' above and this one:

On a PC they'd reach higher speeds than 10/100 adapters but would, of course, top out at 480mbps theoretical max instead of full gigabit. I know in most computers any USB 3.0 device works fine in a USB 2.0 port, however I'm gun-shy when it comes to android considering its support track record on other devices.
If anyone has any direct experience with USB 3.0 adapters working fine on android (Nexus 7, 10, etc) I'd love to still know.

Sorry to hear that, it is a bummer. What model did you get and do you know the maker or model # of it's chipset? I ordered a usb 3 adapter with an Asix AX88179 chipset that should arrive by Tues. I know that Asix has provided Google with the drivers for all their chipsets and those drivers have been included in Android since 4.2. Its been confirmed that the Asix AX88178 chipset in their usb 2.0 version works fine with the NPlayer. I wonder if the adapter you picked up has an Asix chipset?
Here's a link for the one I picked up in case anyone is interested:

For anyone curious: the NP also works with the official nintendo wii lan adapter.
I had one from my old wii and it worked without any changes needed.
Wikipedia states it uses an ASIX chip, but I cant seem to find info on which exact model.

Thanks for the tip, I did the same, totally worked, fixed all the spottiness from the NP wifi adaptor (never saw my N network so was stuck with low bandwidth and app crashes).
I picked up a micro usb extension to move the whole mess of cables around the back of the TV, its such a shame they didn't include ethernet, the FireTV works perfectly with ethernet, but the NP has a far better UI.

I have the USB one in your Amazon link. I can play a movie, and open files from a thumb drive. Once plugged in, it opens like it's a folder on the drive.
I also bought another one from Amazon that has a short piece of flexible cable, so that I don't have the huge hemorage hanging from the side. It works too, but the connector cover came off the connector, so I glued it. It was less than $10, but I don't have a link right now for it.
I can also confirm (though probably not a surprise) that a USB HD does not work. The message says "High powered USB device" and won't connect. So you'd need a powered hub for that.
I bought such a cable off ebay for 7 dollars shipped
Works exactly as expected.

Just bought a galaxy tab 2.
I am very new to this tablet, its my first android tab.
Well i want to use it as usb host primary for usb 3g stick for gprs/ 3g, will this accesory work or what else more i need for this stick to work. ?
Looking at getting a GT-P3113 this weekend and need to have the USB connection to external HD as well but do not see the needed 30 pin connector in photos of the tab online to make the Samsung USB connection kit to work.
Does the GT-P3113 at Best Buy/Staples have this connection setting.
Thanks!
Just got mine today. USB thumb drive works, and files are readable. My iMac mouse and keyboard don't work. I believe I need to get a AC adapter for my USB hub and then route them through that. As stated earlier in the thread I believe high powered devices need to be plugged into a usb hub that is connected to a power source, before plugging it into the adapter. This is an Android OS issue I believe.

As others have said, what is a 3G dongle?
As far as OTG cables, I got this combo (along with a few other cables from that seller). The OTG cable works fine, as do the rest of the cables I got. The fit is a little bit more snug then the cable that came with my tablet, but everything works great and the quality is very good as well for eBay cables from China.

I also have a mhl adapter from pny but I did not connect power to the adapter and the external display worked. Was your display on the phone and tv laggy or smooth after you connected the adapter? Were your videos in sync with the image produced on the phone itself?
MHL adapter kit
The MHL adapter for HTC DNA from iBOLT features a 2 meter (6ft) extension cable so you can stand in front of the TV and play Angry Bird, racing or whatever other games you prefer. With licensed MHL technology it is a real 30 frames per second so there's no delay and the sound quality is great when playing even advanced games. My kids love MHL, they only want to watch Netflix kids programs now without painful commercial interruptions.
The only thing to be aware of with Android MHL is that some sites block the HDMI port out. Two examples are Hulu+ and HBO (they don't block it from iOS). Most others, like Netflix and almost all web streaming sites works perfect. Google Play has an amazing picture quality on the newer videos when you rent them, absolutely clear 1080p resolution if you have enough WiFi bandwidth. The best use of MHL is to show photos and videos though on the big screen TV. The quality with good adapter is near perfect and the phone is charging while you are doing it too.
The "cyber Monday" price for an iBOLT complete MHL adapter kit with 6ft HDMI cable and the required 1 amp microUSB wall charger is only $24.95. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll check back daily here. Here's a YouTube video showing the technology and the kit I was referring to. The Samsung OEM has a very good reputation if you don't like this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QmaKIJ90Xz4&feature=plcp
The image and everything was in sync... Sounds were good I watched a little but of transformers... The picture looked like crap but that is because it's compressed over Google play... You tube looked great
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
I bought one and it works well, but the framerate seems a little slower. It is usable, but certain apps seem to not allow being shown via the HDMI such as NFL Mobile and Hulu Plus.
The Samsung adapter for GSIII works on the DNA.
I have experienced issues with hardware accelerated subtitles using the MHL cable. Viki shows video but no words and that is kind of useless for me. Fortunately downloaded subtitles play in MXplayer with the software subtitle option.

I think I know the answer to this question but I will ask anyway...lol
Is there any MHL to HDMI adapter cables that do NOT need an external power source for the adapter? Seems kinda crappy to have to plug power into the adapter,
If so, a link to one would be greatly appreciated
Just put my order in to upgrade from my Thunderbolt to the DNA. Figure I will want to get a wireless charging pad, the MHL to HDMI adapter, and a micro USB to USB to mount external storgae.
As an aside...I cannot believe no company has actually created a micro USB to Micro SD adpater cable! I saw some links to threads here where people actually built their own...pretty cool...but hard to believe no company has stepped up for this. With the form factor fo phones moving more towards the DNA, One X, etc, I would think those would sell like hotckaes!
While browsing this thread I came to wonder about the DNA's mirroring. So when the right cable is connected, mirroring becomes available? Makes me wonder if a cable exists that might be micros USB on one side and (don't laugh) RCA on the other. My car's head unit had an add-on that allows RCA video inputs to display on the nav screen. It worked back when I used an iPad occassionally.

Hi everyone,
I got a good few hours with the Galaxy Note 3 over the weekend, tried out a bunch of stuff and can answer a lot of the questions people have here in relation to what sorts of connectivity work and which don't (the USB 3.0 has people wondering whether their existing stuff will work).
A few findings of mine from the weekend:
External drives work, but unfortunately NTFS formatted drives still don't work on stock ROMs. It had the power to spin up a 1TB Seagate drive! Unfortunately the drive was NTFS formatted so couldn't do more to see how well it was working, but definitely was powered with a solid indicator light. Promising.
The Smart Dock works with the Note 3
The S3/Note 2 MHL adapters definitely work
The Samsung MHL 2.0 adapter works without needing a charging input plugged in and IS outputting at 60Hz
USB audio working, I tried several DACs. The ones that worked were the HiFimeDIY, Tiny-M, HeadAmp Pico. Unfortunately Apex Glacier did not work (did not work on the S4 either).
USB keyboards/mice working as they did with the older Samsungs
PS3 controller working over USB OTG
Ditto for the Xbox 360 for Microsoft controller (which required an app on older Samsungs in order to work)
Logitech F310 controller works too
Ditto the Logitech F710
It also worked with a cheapie gamepad from Ebay (like $6), although button mappings seemed limited and did not have time to try it in emulators etc to see whether all could be mapped.
BT keyboard and mouse working, as expected
IR blaster via the inbuilt app works great with my LG TV
MHL and USB OTG do not work together using the Samsung MHL 2.0 adapter
Moga Pro gamepad working well
Tried several ethernet adapters, none work.
Unfortunately the one I had did not have the USB 3.0 cable/charger, so could not benchmark read/write speeds or charging speeds using that connectivity.

This arrived for me this week, finally got around to testing it tonight and can confirm it works well, which is a great result for the $11USD it cost me from Ebay (including shipping). Considering it basically does everything the Samsung Smart Dock does I'm well pleased.
Few notes:
Yes, it is MHL 1.0 - I kind of expect them to revise these to MHL 2.0 before Samsung actually get around to releasing an updated dock.
USB OTG functions will not work without a 2A Samsung charger connected apparently, I was initially using a cheap charger that happened to be in the multi-board the TV was plugged into and was disappointed when nothing would work. Got of my lazy @$$ and grabbed my Samsung charger and all working. Plugged in my externally powered USB hub and then a Logitech K400 keyboard/mouse combo, card reader with a 16GB full-sized SD card in it and also a Logitech F710 controller. Happily watched some video from the card and then played some Dead Trigger 2 on the HDTV with the controller.
Thanks as always.
I am a bit sad that Samsung did not update the smart dock to MHL 2.0, in my opinion 60Hz is so much better. So for now, there is no option for simultaneous USB OG and MHL 2.0.
Oh and I am seriously tempted by Moga Pro, but it is so damn expensive to import and game support make it even more difficult to buy. I am hoping Google will follow Apple and announce some sort of API for game controllers.
i am also said we still can not do MHL with a USB keyboard+mouse and video out.
That could turn it into a portable laptop. Which is why I want a Note anyway. It's big. Ideally I'd also like it if the Flipcover had a built in bluetooth keyboard with hardware keys or perhaps someone made a QWERTY slider case for it. Yes I know it is big but yes it is what I ideally want.
How cool would it be to set your Note down, plug in keyboard, mouse, and to a monitor? Bam. Get to work (or surfing). Heck I'd probably stop using my laptop for a lot of things! Get a mini-USB hub for like 5 bucks and the possibilities are endless. Would be really cool if someone set up an easy dual-boot Linux and Android ROM too or maybe that is around. But the key is having video AND keyboard/mouse at the same time. I think over time Samsung will add this, though. They deliver on cool features like this. I bet it would be possible to add in an update of software to the Note 3??? USB 3 has so much bandwidth shouldn't it be possible?
Thank you very much!! I have been looking for someone to post this type of info. Has anyone seen anything that points to a OTG cable that supports 3.0 standards?
Thanks a lot. Happy to hear that smart dock works with it. With 2.3Ghz quad core, it definitely will replace my desktop.

I want this too. Something that you can hold without having to prop up the phone/screen. Slider would be ideal. I don't care if it adds a bit of bulk...just not as much as the one I tried for the S4. It was horrible, and didn't work well anyway. I'd love to see a really good solution put out for this.
great info ! thanks !

So far i've only been able to test with my old gear, but my existing Samsung MHL 1.0 adapter is working well, and i'm going to be buying the official samsung one on your recommendation.
My chepo amazon OTG cable worked great for my 2TB portable WD harddrive, which itself also sports the Mini USB 3.0 port. It power right up and i was able to play movies from it. (i'm pretty sure it's formatted HFS+.
is there anything special you need to do to get mhl working? ive got THREE mhl adapters that all worked with my galaxy note 1 (n7000) and none of them are doing a thing with the note 3. any ideas?
Anyone can recommend a mhl 2.0 adapter because on amazon the review are 50-50 saying that they are fake?

The mhl adapter for the note 1 is different (pin count) than that of the note 2. The galaxy note 2 + s3 used a newer type of mhl. When searching look for mhl adapters that work for the galaxy s3 and note 2.

I got the Smart Dock Multimedia Hub since I've read that some of the aftermarket and knockoffs occasionally fry itself or the phone. I wasn't interested in risking it so I picked one up for $55 with my VZW account that I have suspended lines with grandfathered data I keep meaning to sell.
Like OP has listed it works. I does sit off center due to the USB 2.0 of the 3.0 portion not in the middle. Video runs fine with a slight delay over HDMI. One of the big things I wanted to do was emulated games. I have Animaonline SNES, SNESDroid, and Snes9x EX+ installed. While using a wired PS3 controller there is an obvious input lag on all three emulators. Snes9x EX+ went half speed and was unplayable. The other two ran, but still had an input lag. I was barely able to make it past the first course in F-Zero bouncing around like a noob and Mario World was a joke. Playing these with just an OTG cable works great and I've already beaten a couple of my old favorites; playing through Secret of Mana right now.
I can't imagine trying to use this with a keyboard and mouse and using a RDP client for some remote administration. I wonder if the Note 2 and S4 exhibit the same lag; I'll try and test if I get a chance. Frankly I'm a bit disappointed and think that MHL (for video) and OTG need to be separate on the Note 3 until lag is sorted out. It would be a real shame if the lag is there on the Note 2 and S4, which means no one knows about it or they don't care to fix it. I do look forward to the day when the phone is also the full on computer that just needs a dock or be near ones desk. I'll see if VZW will take it back after my vacation.

Buy it from the Samsung store, that's pretty much the only way right now to ensure you get the genuine article. It's $39.99 in the US but while placing the order I registered my phone with them, then used the 50% off coupon they mailed me for registering to get it for $19.99 plus shipping.
Sure beats playing Russian roulette on Amazon.

First of all, lemme say that I got mine last night and I love it!!!
I was just sitting here pondering what I would use my 50% off coupon for and after seeing your post, I think I'll do the same.
As a bit of an unrelated sidenote, I was just looking at the YouTube channel of a "reputable" reviewer who puts out weekly ratings of the top 5 phones as voted by consumers and then another list as voted by "experts".
As of this week, the iPhone 5s is atop the experts list and in 2nd place on the consumer list.
In what alternative world are the minuscule changes made to the 5, anywhere near substantial enough to rate it above the Note 3???
It boggles my mind how blindly devoted the Apple Nation truly are...
They're exactly like the guys in the band playing on the deck of the Titanic...the friggin' ship is damn near vertical, but the band plays on.
Go figure...
Rant completed...I now return you to your previously scheduled programming.

Ok but what about a regular MHL adapter would we need the 5 to 11 pin adapter I was looking at the http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00EAM863M/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1381591510&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70.

the two I used were an auvio mhl adapter which i got to work mabey 10% of the time with a ton of unplugging and reconecting cables, I returned that one for a radioshack mhl to hdmi cable which i couldnt get to mirror at all but when plugged into the phone it allowed the phone to go into landscape but no video

I've had decent luck with the 'Rocketfish' MHL adapters that are available at BestBuy. I'll have it work fine for a while and then all of a sudden I'll loose video but keep audio. I've since ordered a MHL adapter of Monoprice that had good reviews. I'll update if I get anywhere.

Samsung S3 uses a 12 pin connection (I also bought it) and that's not the one, from looking at the photo. Are you sure that's not the adapter from the S2 or something?
I still haven't found any info regarding if the HTC One m8 uses mhl 2.0 or 1.0
Any news regarding this matter?

it might be an S2, that is why I post a pic with the model number so people can search by it.
If you have an AV receiver that supports MHL, the best thing to use is a passive MHL cable. Fortunately my Onkyo TX-NR5010 supports MHL & it works perfectly using this Pipeline passive MHL cable: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EZ2KL76/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have never lost video or audio with it. *Please Note: If you do NOT have a receiver or a TV that supports MHL natively, then this will not work for you. It is a PASSIVE cable that transmits the raw MHL signal to the receiver or TV for native processing/decoding. If you DO have a TV or receiver that supports MHL though, then this is the way to go. Those little adapters will never match the reliability & quality of native decoding via an AVR or high-end TV.
I am also having trouble getting mhl adapter to work with my HTC One_M8. Tried two different ones already. The mhl symbol appears on the phone but no image on the TV. Anyone has any tips? I'm getting desperate
Thanks
MHL Works on HTC One (M8)
I bought 2 cheap cords on Amazon which took about 2 weeks to get to me because they came from China. In the beginning the order I plugged in the cords mattered. However, now I just plug them in, in any order and they work just fine. I am sorry you paid top dollar at radio shack for the cord. I almost did too. Here is a link to the one I bought. I was thinking about buying a few more to give to friends. I paid $3.78 with shipping each. Now they are even cheaper. They only utilize MHL 1.0 technology and our phone has 3.0 technology. Here is the link to the one I am currently using on a daily basis to watch movies I have downloaded in HD on my TV from my phone.
New user, so it won't let me post the link but add (amazon dot com forward slash) to the following : eForCity®-Compatible-Micro-HDMI-Adapter/dp/B00827EGG2/ref=pd_rhf_se_s_qp_10_0FRY?ie=UTF8&refRID=05W5ENJ6B2ZNZ2A6AR2Y
This is exactly the same one I found knocking around my house. Same serial number and everything it didn't work at first but after a few tries different hdmi ports and a cleaning of the ports got the adapter working. Took a bit of time to get connected but stuck with it and now I can view my phone on my TV to the post above showing the Samsung adapter

I've been using a general MHL adapter that came with the 5 to11 pin Galaxy add-on (which I don't use of course for my HTC). This has worked flawlessly for me no problem for years now. Make sure you have a good power source, the only problems I have had is my phone will say "slow charging", and the Media Device output will not work. Mine is pretty old, over a year & a half I've been using it, so I'm looking for a new one. They have one with a remote which is what led me to the review on here (a diff thread). However, they have the same one I have on Amazon or Walmart for a few bucks, you shouldn't have a problem. I'll add the links below...

M8 mhl cable
I have the m8. I bought a Skiva mhl cable from Amazon. I believe it's hd-x2 cable. Works flawlessly only problem ive encountered is it will not play in 5.1 surround. It only transmits a 2.0 audio feed. Which I don't understand. If I use like all cast to cast the stream to my Xbox it transmits in 5.1. So if anyone knows how to get the cable to do 5.1 let me know.
I have been getting exceedingly frustrated with the lack of wi-fi stability for video streams and the lack of compatible remotes that work with the Nexus Player.
Pros
Gigabit Ethernet (I know it is only capable of USB 2.0 but streams feel more stable than with the built-in wi-fi)
3 Port USB Hub (I have 2 devices plugged up through the port right now)
Relatively affordable price compared to a standalone USB ethernet unit
Cons
Constructed of hard plastic (would be nice to be built out of metal or something else like the HooToo model)
The first unit I gave a try was the HooToo HT-UE02. No matter what I did, it wouldn't pick up the ethernet; however the USB hub did work. I finally gave up, returned the HooToo unit, and ordered the Inateck HB4003. When It came in, I plugged it up & it immediately worked! I didn't even have to reboot. It automatically switched to the ethernet connection. So far, video streams seem much more solid than with the built-in wi-fi unit. When i get some time, I will run a speedtest.
On a side note. If anyone was curious if the SMK-Link PS3 Blu-Link Universal Remote Control would work with the Nexus Player, it doesn't. I ordered the Logitech Harmony Smart Control. Hopefully it will reduce the number of remotes I have lying around.

Okay, now does anyone know there's one that's similar to this that has external power input?
Because this now exists https://plus.google.com/+DeesTroy/posts/F93xFzFYhff
4GB of user accessible storage on the #NexusPlayer is a bit small, especially in 2015. Tonight I attached an "old" 64GB SSD via USB OTG and repacked the boot image to use the SSD for the userdata partition. Now I have 59GB of relatively speedy storage.
You can find the repacked boot image at the link below. Personally I am user a powered USB adapter so as not to overload the USB OTG port. You will need to make sure that there is only one partition on the drive or that the partition you intend to use for data is the first partition. It will need to be formatted as ext4.

If you reboot the Nexus Player, does the USB/ethernet connection stay connected? I have a different brand usb/ethernet connector and if I reboot the nexus, it doesn't automatically reconnect to my network. I have to go into the network settings and change the ethernet connection from DHCP to static (and enter all of the network settings). That doesn't fix the problem, but then when I switch back to DHCP it instantly connects and everything's fine until I reboot again. It's not a big problem because I don't restart the NP very often, but it's still annoying.

Yes, mine always reconnects. I don't have to do anything special. I know the Nexus Player is really finicky about which units it likes to work with. I had to return my first one from a different brand.
I found a workaround. There were two issue - first, with DHCP selected the ethernet would not connect until I tried a static connection and then went back to re-select DHCP. I don't think this has been resolved.
But... the other issue was that I wasn't able to get a working connection after manually putting in the static ip settings. When I went through the Static IP wizard I wasn't putting in DNS servers (assuming that they would be auto-retrieved like nearly other device does). The Static IP wizard was finishing successfully without the DNS servers populated. But apparently DNS servers are required when you use the Static IP wizard because now the connection works and survives reboots.

For the Inateck adapter or in general?
I guess for the inateck....since it was stated that the 3port ethernet definitely works ...I would suppose to get an otg that's works in tandem. ..bc it's quite tight back there with hdmi and power and then micro. ...

I actually just use mine with HooToo (HT-CT01). Its an OTG adapter with 4 extra USB charging ports (they only work for charging). to make the cable longer, I use this adapter with a USB extension cable. I would think if you have an regular OTG cable, you should be able to connect it to a USB extension cable to make it longer.
