Thanks.

well we know android OS supports TV out and the USB connection supports it as well, its all up to whether an accessory is made or not.
i had no idea android supported it, nor usb
it does. mytouch 3g has an officia TV out accessory sold by tmobile on their website.

Hi all,
I did a few searches before this and it seems like no one else has asked about this yet. My goal is to get some type of external radio working on an Android phone in hopes to learn more about the system and possibly get a USB LTE radio talking to Android. I know most of the phones use usb Micro which supports a host protocol but I don't know if the Android system supports it.
My first goal would be to get a usb wifi dongle or 3g dongle working. My reasoning is because those have linux drivers so maybe I could try to get the driver on the android phone? Just my thoughts.
Does anyone think this is possible? Thanks for any help.
PS: I am aware that I would need an adapter to make the dongle fit to the micro usb port.
SO far I have been able to get host mode working on a nexus one. Now I need to get into adding different kernel modules compiled. Does anyone know a good guide to follow to ge me started? I did a quick google search but it didnt really turn up anything other than compile the actual Android Kernel.
I recently bought the LG LM640s TV, which has a WiFi-Direct and Wireless Screenshare option. The N4 connects just fine, the TV shows a message saying "Android XYZ connected", but I can't get it to display my phones screen.
I'm on xylon #18, and besides the connection over wifi-direct, there's an option in "Settings -> Display ->" like this.
Tried checking "Skip HDCP negotiation", didn't work either. The TV received an update like a week ago, didn't help :/
As much as I love this phone, I sometimes get frustrated that the standards it's pushing aren't available or working as intended (wireless charging, wireless display), even with hardware from the same manufacturer.
Did anyone manage to get this working with a similar TV?
i got the 55LM670T and it doesnt work, but i checked it out and although on the tv it says wireless display, it does say miracast, which is what the N4 supports, so i dont think our tvs support the miracast standard

If it's not working with the N4 and/or miracast - what is it working with?
Hello,
I am looking for list of hardware that supports Android, but this hardware needs to support OTG.
Is there a web site that has list of all the Android phones/tables that support OTG?
To be specific I am looking for something that has 4/4.5 inch screen and OTG.
Anybody knows if the new Motorola G phone supports OTG, I looked at their spec sheet doesn't call it out explicitly, where as Nexus 5 explicitly lists OTG support.

Hey all,
So from what I understand, one of the few ways to get over-the-air live tv with an HD antenna on your Nexus Player is to get an HD Homerun or comparable device that transmits the signal over DLNA to your devices. This is a little over-kill for me, as I just need live tv on my Nexus Player. Is it possible right now to use a USB-to-Coax TV Stick (like this one: www(dot)hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hvr955q.htm ) with a usb to micro-usb adapter? Any reason why this won't work?
Best,
Sheik
The link you posted above (when manually corrected) leads to a 404 error message. The correct link is http://hauppauge.com/site/products/data_hvr955q.html. Does the product's web site list Android compatibility? I doubt that it would work as you have planned but I wonder if it *might* be possible because they apparently support Linux (which is similar to Android). The Linux tab lists an e-mail address which you can contact for "customization of the Linux driver" so maybe that's the person to ask. Is there a reason why you don't just plug the OTA line directly in to your TV?
I was hoping to use the Live Channels function on the Nexus Player, OTA works fine in the TV, but having one box for everything appeals to me
Hey all,
So the wife & I got 2 new G6's recently. We had G3 before & could use slimport (wired) to play video & stream through our phones & display on the tv. We have no wifi, phones are our only internet connection at the house. Our big screen is a few yrs old and came out just before "smart" tv's rolled out.
We used to plug in a slimport adapted to the phone & tv HDMI port, but apparently slimport is no longer compatible with the G6... Any tips/ideas/work arounds?
Get a wireless display adaptor. It uses mirrorcast.

I have the exact same problem as deekman. The only internet access I have is through my LG G6. I do not have WiFi or any wireless capability. Am I able to connect my LG G6 to my TV? kabirjedi said that a beelink gt 1 Android TV box works. I'm a bit of a techno-illiterate. So could anyone explain, in detail, how it works? I am able to use my LG as a wifi hot spot but only get 15g of 4g data per month before Verizon slows my "unlimited" service to 600kb which is worthless.
Hope you can help.
