When i plug my phone to the tv, nothing happens ! Black sceen on tv...nothing special on the phone.
This cable seems to be compatible with an Xperia T, so what's the problem in your opinion ?
Do i need a specific application ?
Thanks by advance for your advices.

It looks like the usb part of the cable needs to be stuck into any usb port to draw power for the mhl cable.

Should work if I not mistaken there a certain order in which to plug them in an I believe it's hdmi to the tv power to mhl then micro usb to phone anyway give it a shot

Doesnt make a difference with my mhl cable, long as it has power via the short USB port that's connected it will work fine.

AC Adapter

Hi, anyone using the AC Adapter Model KY-738 before? The adapter is as per picture below:

When I charged using this adapter, I would able to "wake up" the phone by pressing power button. However, the screen wont have any response when I touch it. When I unplugged the phone, the screen will response already. Anyone any idea why this happened?
Bad quality adapter it is very common problem with responsibility of touch screen while charging. Use a stock charger

+1 its probably the cheap charger
If you use a higher quality one like the HTC one, you might not have the same problem

Have a try with the real one to see if its a hardware issue with your phone before throwing it out
Then buy a proper one, with some things on eBay you get what you pay for unfortunately

Camera adapter / Sd card reader adapter for Nexus 7

Hey guys ...
I just bought my Google tab and I was wondering if one of you guys have found any device similar to a camera adapter / SD cards reader to be used with Nexus? I saw something like this for Ipad and Galaxy Tab. But I still didnt find any for Nexus.
Another option would be buy a mini USB - female USB TO WIDE OPEN the connection possibilities.
What do you guys think?

You could just get the otg cord and a standard USB card reader instead of trying to find one with a micro USB. And there's a app that you can get from the app store so you can import files without having to root. it's called nexus media importer. And there's a add on called nexus photo viewer. It's about $5 and the add on is free.

Ok ... I still prefer the idea of Ipad Camera connect kit, but if OTG cable works, fine by me!
Many thanks!

I just use a OTG USB cable and plug my camera into the tablet through the usual PC USB connection. Recognizes immediately, brings up the gallery import feature, and I import away.
Could always just get a usb card reader and plug into the OTG USB cable. I doubt you will find a micro usb OTG card reader, I've never seen one, but I could be wrong.

[Q] Using Galaxy TAB 7" With External Hard Disk (P1000)

Does anybody know solutions for using external drives in Galaxy TAB 7" ( P1000 ) ?
I 've searched some items, i found an " USB Server " or " Print Server " but they were supporting under LAN connection (not WIFI or Wired). Related search: http://s.dealextreme.com/search/usb+server :good:
I know that, P1000 does not support to attaching any usb flash or hard drive via 30pin connector adaptor.
I think, For the solution we must use an external device/adaptor that has been external powered and output connector has micro usb.
Did someone use to own p1000 with ext. hdd ?
Does any solution, idea or suggested item ?

You are right, this works. You need a kernel with support for USB Host and rooted ROM. To mount the external drive you can use the App "USB Host Controller".

Internal OTG - up to 32gb memory extension - crazy idea??

Hi, I`m just wondering if it is possible to make kind of internal bypass on internal connector and make full time OTG directly connected to some little usb sdcard reader inside device (should be connected directly w/o original USB male and female connector due size reduction). In sd reader could be up to 32gb micro sd card. (or someone tryed 64gb yet?)
From software side every time it should looks like OTG and sdcard is connected.
Just wondering if it is possible to power up properly and connect with PC or another OTG after this messing up with hw
Thank you in advance for your opinion
EDIT: spare internal dock cable is not so expensive so everyone may give a try.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dock-Conn...K_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item20c68df444
I'm also very interested in this idea.
Have you search for ang other DIY projects?
Maybe you post this question in Galaxy Tab 10.1 forums?

Here i am!
It's not possible. For 3 reason:
1) there is no place physically inside device. Not even 1mm!!
2) you can't have at the same time the OTG feature and the connection to PC
3) you can't have at the same time the OTG feature and the charge from AC adapter
In this picture you can see a modification that i have made in my tab:

I have moved the dock connector. This it was possible because i have removed the battery. (in car the li-ion battery expolde!!")
Bye!

Maybe it is possible somehow to solder this adapter to 30 pin?

[Q] MHL Support?

Yes, I've tried to search it in the actually stock-based ROM page as well as Xperia Z General page, but couldn't find anything specific on it. Anyways, is MHL supported on Xperia Z 10.1.A.434 monxdified essential rom? I have purchased an MHL adaptor but my phone doesn't recognize it. Can someone confirm? Thanks.

The Z does support MHL. I did find that my ZL (stock .244) required an MHL adapter that has a port for your usb charger, like: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=10022&seq=1&format=2
I tried a cable that didn't have any input for a usb charger and it didn't recognize it at all.
