Has anyone tried to get a TV out going on the G-Tablet without having purchased the dock? We have a standard and mini-usb available, maybe it can be done?
electroniccrap.com has a dock connector to hdmi cable.
You can also get a cable from electronic crap which plugs in the proprietary plug and outputs HDMI. Just got mine and works like a charm.

I've tried connecting mine through both USB ports and it's a no go. When I put my TV into USB mode, it says "no device connected" My Digital cameras and video camera work fine, but not the G-Tab.

Does audio work through this cable?
hdmi out
can you post a link or name that cable so we can find it on electronic crap? That would be great-
Nevermind- found it!....LinkIt $29
Since it works like a charm I'm assuming audio works. Do you need to change any type of settings on the g-tab for the video out to work? Or do you pretty much just plug it in and you're good to go?

User Agapeman posted a video on his site using the cable - http://raywaldo.com/2011/06/gtab-does-hdmi/
Would this cable be able to output video from a PS3 or anything?

Any of the accessories that use Samsung's 30-pin connector (like on the original Tab, and every single Tab since then) will work. There is no HDMI adapter specific to any particular moel (the 7.7 included) so they'll all work with each other. I got mine off of Amazon.
P.S. It's awesome.
The problem is that it requires external power to attach to this adapter.
This is a deal breaker for me.
I am still in search of a single HDMI adapter without the need for a power supply. I need things to be minimal.
My Playbook can connect straight to the 1080p TV and can output 1080p signal to the TV using a single simple HDMI cable. Even though the 7.7 uses a propriety 30-pin cable, I hope that some company/or Samsung, can create a simple HDMI cable to watch 1080p movies on a TV.

AFAIK, at this point, no such thing exists. Honestly though, the external power requirement isn't as bad as you might think, especially if your TV has a USB port (which, most do nowadays).
Connecting to non HD TV
I purchased the Samsung TV Out Cable Model:ECCI TP0BBECSTD, Ver. 6.0 to connect to a non HD TV but nothing appears on the screen, I tried it on all the AV channels to no avail, I tried it on another TV, still no joy. I purchased my Galaxy Tab from Hong Kong and wondered if this has any thing to do with my connection problem. I have the Samsung HDMI cable any it works fine. I would be very grateful for any advice on this matter. Thank you.

Would someone be able to confirm if MHL is supported on the 7.7 through the micro usb socket as well as the 30 pin connector? I cant seem to find a definitive answer.
Cheers in advance!

What micro USB socket where? No, the 7.7 doesn't support MHL...
Oh my bad, assumed it had one for some reason! Thanks
So will a 30-pin to micro USB adapter which then connects to the micro USB to hdmi adapter work???
Also is the original 7" dock working fine???
Yes, the original Tab 7.0 Station works fine.

Could someone tell me, which pins are used on MHL 30pin connector? I connected galaxy S2 MHL adapter to 1,7,17,18,19 pins, but it's not working.
Okay, I've had some trouble in the past selecting USB OTG cables. I have 4 now. One for my old Galaxy Victory that I no longer have, one for my Nexus 10 I sold, one for my PadFone X, and one for my HTC m7 that works w/ the Z3 and Shield Tab. Are USB Y cables as finicky? Does anybody reccommend a particular one?

Nice, I purchased both of those blind without any idea they were the right ones, I guess I will have some spares when they arrive.
I didn't even think about it too much, I've had a blessed existence when it comes to buying this stuff without any prior confirmation that it works (first S2 video on YouTube demonstrating USB OTG was mine).
would they work in combination with the ethernet adapter?

That's specifically why Nvidia added this functionality, so that much at least should be a given.

Pretty much anyone of those usb to ethernet adapters you find should work. I've tried with 2 of those MIC el cheapo adapters, works fine.
Thanks much appreciated
Of the ones I got, this one turned up first, works fine (although price has risen since I grabbed them).
Note that the charging input needs to be plugged in before the cable is plugged into the tablet.
I have trouble to find a store that ships those to Germany.
Amazon.de has one that looks identical, but pictures in webstores...
Also the description says it won't work simultaneously. But maybe that's just for your average phone...

It doesn't charge the tablet. Just powers the connected device to save battery . That's how OTG works.

"Please note that the extra power goes into the peripheral device, not into the android device itself."
This is noted in the products description. I'd like to know what cable I would need to get to charge the nVidia Shield and also allow the use of a USB Ethernet adapter.

No, Nvidia's implementation charges the tablet. That is the express purpose of Nvidia's addition, to allow simultaneous charging of the tablet while streaming over ethernet.
Please bear in mind I am actually using such a cable myself, and have confirmed the tablet charges used this way.

Any particular order I should be plugging it in? I don't charge using that cable
Edit: nvm I see. I got another one. *buy* Hopefully this one works. Mine doesn't.
I am a little bit confused, too.
1. Does this feature just works with Android 5 or also with 4.4.2?
2. Does this only work for ethernet adapters?
3. Does this only work in console mode? (would be strange)
I have this one from German amazon.de and tried it on 4.4.2 with a USB stick and a wireless 360 controller adapter. (non-console mode)
Either it charges the tablet or it recognizes the peripheral device, never both.
So is this a problem of the OS version, or of the used peripheral device, or of the OTG-Y cable?
Does devices has USB-C HDMI support like S8, LG G5?
up!
Doesn't seem to work on my first attempt. Reason I was ditching my Moto Z as it didn't work on that. Always worked fine on my LG G5 and on pre USB C Samsungs. At least it does have miracast though Moto didn't even have that.
Tried again after updates, still no joy after system update 47.1.A.8.49
The screen does seem to detect an HDMI input but it's black and the phone doesn't mention it.

XZ1 does NOT support MHL and DisplayPort-over-USB-C HDMI adapters. They won’t work on the device. That means you’ll have to use a wireless method ( e.g Miracast or Chromecast) to connect to your TV
Hi,
A Reddit user has successfully tested one method to display content via HDMI
Thread : https://www.reddit.com/r/SonyXperia/comments/9futz7/displaying_content_via_hdmi_on_xz_xz1
Anyone have any feedback on this method ?

The missing link is the keyword "DisplayLink"! A "DisplayPort alt mode" USB-C to HDMI cable would be cheaper and smaler, but this DisplayLink dongle does the job, too! :good:
"WAVLINK UG-3501H" (DisplayLink certified dl-3500 chipset) + USB-A to USB-C adapter/cable
After installing the app "DisplayLink Presenter" and a reboot, the picture was shown via HDMI.
I tested the this device with these smartphones:
1. Sony XZ1 (USB 3.1)
2. ZTE Axon 7 Mini (USB 2.0, like the XZ1 Compact)
Hello, and thank you SGH-i200 for this tip, but I'm not sure to understand, why this item you propose is suppose to work better than other USB adaptator ?
I'm needing to be chanrging my Xz1 while plugged to a screen and a Bluetooth keyboard, it seems that this item is not giving option to charge my phone at the same time, how to find any adaptator that is "displaylink" ? I've made hours of research now, and still don't get anything..
Thank you !

Maybe you can try to use a USB type C docking station which supports DisplayLink. eBay and Amazon are full of DisplayLink adapters and docking stations.
In order to use a hub, you need a kernel that allows to active USB host mode and charging at the same time! Only same custom kernels allow this combination.

WAVLINK UG-3501H + Ugreen type-c to usb + Sony XZ1 + Monitor 1080P = video + audio (I can't check resolution)

Trying to replace a Lenovo USB-C HUB C112 that is not recognized by my Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact
Do you know if any DisplayLink mini hubs would be compatible too ?
Does anyone has tested Vantec SB 3.0 Universal Mini Docking Station Adapter with HDMI/DVI (DSH-M100U3) with Xperia XZ1 (Compact)?
Also, I read this : "...It appears that some Android devices do not go into USB host mode..."
Could it be what happen with my Lenovo USB-C HUB C112 ?

Did you check what is shown in a USB diagnostic app like this one? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=aws.apps.usbDeviceEnumerator
In order to use a hub, you need a kernel that allows to active USB host mode and charging at the same time! Only same custom kernels allow this combination.
I'm trying to connect my Tab S6 (SM-T867V) to my Logitech mouse, but as soon as I connect the OTG cable to the Tab, even before the mouse controller is insterted, I get a notification that says USB connector connected and then it switches to USB connector disconected and just keeps flipping between the two notifications every few seconds seemingly endlessly. I tried the otg cable with my Note 9 (SM-N960U) and it works perfectly fine with my mouse. The Tab and Note prompt me with charging/file transfer when the otg cable is hooked into the Note and connected to the Tab via a usb c cable so that seemed to work fine. The tab also works normally when charging and using a usb c to hdmi adapter, so I don't think it's a port issue. Both devices are on One UI 2.1 and both have USB 3.1 type C 1.0 reversible connectors, so I'm really confused as to why I'm getting this bug. If anyone has a solution, I would greatly appreciate it!

I didn't think about PD making a difference, but maybe you're right. My usb c to hdmi does support PD, but the power wasn't plugged in when I tried it and it still worked tho ?
But either way, I ended up purchasing a bluetooth mouse instead just because it's more useful to have one for my tablet rather than unplugging my laptop's every time I take the tab somewhere. I will keep this in mind for if I need to add more accessories later, so thanks for the info.
