Hi Guys,
Perhaps this is a stupid question. I just wondering whether we can use the USB cable of our beloved HD2 machine to connect to TV so as to watching the movie stored in the machine....
Does anyone knowing about this....
I look forward to see if this is possible or not...
Thank you any reply.....
Add
there are tv's out, which are able to use usb sticks or hard drives and watch some movies..
there are also dvd players
so if your tv can handle a usb storage it is possible.
but directly from micro usb to hdmi will not work.
if you want s.t. like this, you need to buy a phone lige evo 4g, which has an hdmi output.

Im pretty sure someone will come up with something...
This won't happen. The USB port on this device is not physically capable of supporting this.

Is it possible to connect an external hard drive to the Vogue to use it as an MP3 player hooked up to my stereo to play music? My hard dive has a USB slot. Does anyone know how I can use the MiniUSB cable to USB cable and use the songs on the hard drive?
wow
wow... really? wow... umm...
probably not, USB doesnt actually stand for universal... i'm assuming you'd need some type of drivers or simple deviece support.
MAYBE.... you could use bluetooth to access it? but you'd need to build some hardware, and software.... so... probably no
im not an expert by any means though... somebody check out?
[everybody be easy on him, it's a pretty damn creative idea]
I've heard of prototypes of Bluetooth/WiFi accessible portable HDD's, but I've never seen one in production.
As far as hooking up directly via USB, I don't think it's possible since almost no (if any) PPCs can serve as a USB host.
Eh?
I bought a 4 port USB Hub (powered(?) Never got it yet..)for the Touch from cellphoneshop.net, and I'm guessing that maybe USB Caddy might if it is a Microdrive, but yea, you'll probably need some driivers to make it work...
Interesting Idea, and I had that thought some time ago...I was about to add 5VDC (external) to my USB Caddy, and attach it to my touch... never did finish that project...
I tried a powered hub, and had no success.
anyone here know if its possible to use a usb pc gamepad on a wm5/6 by converting the usb to a miniusb??? and is there any driver for this to work??
it would require the device to support usb host
and it dont
it can only use the usb connector to be charged by
and to have an usb host like a pc sync with it
hey tnx for a quick answer.
just wanted to say that it dosn't just recharge and do the pc sync, but also it can be used with hands-free, and u can listen music with it by converting the miniusb to a 3.5mm audio plug.
And what about this guy here http://www.imagecows.com/uploads/_553e-century_sutra1688_pda_phone_3.jpg
it seem like his using a miniusb gamepad with his wm phone
i found a Bluetooth version of a gamepad, I have never tried it so I dunno how well it works or doesn't, but that may be a route to explore....

Also, I think this may be some drivers for other usb gamepads ,but I am not sure and didn't really read the thread, but check it out:

that bluetooth gamepad is covered in the accesories subforum, i swear i've seen a thread on it in there somewhere
@ SD5150....that last link seems interesting...apparently he got usb gamepads working...
has any1 tried this? or does any1 have a usb gamepad to try it?
i have a usb gamepad for pc, im going to try it out after i get myself a SHEusb to HEminiusb converter. i hope it works
OK so we know that the ATRIX rocks. Able to dock and serve 720p video and all that to a external monitor. And while using the Multimedia dock or laptop dock you can even plug in external USB devices. My question is this. Should the phone be able to handle that natively?
What will happen if I plug in a external USB switch will 2 way communication function?
Will an external keyboard be recognized?
Now that we have WEBTOP without the dock I think it would be great to have a keyboard without Bluetooth.
As always your comments are appreciated in advance.
Yes, I believe USB Host Mode is enabled by default in the stock kernel.

See this topic. There is all you need
This is not development.
Sorry did not know where it went.
Hello!
Just got my Nexus 10 and I tried to connect the Mirco-HDMI out to my LG 42LD420 tv.
However, screen is all black and nothing happens. When I connect to my new PC screen HDMI port the image is mirrored instantly and it just works...
So I guess theres some new standards in Micro-HDMI that my TV doesn't support?
Just wanna clear this problem by making sure its my tv. And btw, other devices works just fine on the tv HDMI port...
Thanks for any info.

Whenever HDMI has problems it's usually HDCP that is the culprit.
Thanks! Googled some about it and I realize the problem New TV then I guess or try with some adapters to analog input...
I just ran into this the other day myself with a Samsung TV. I thought maybe it was the TV was only capable of 720p or something...
I'd get sound through from the N10, no picture though.
Also tried an MHL cable with my GNex and nothing as well.
Both devices work no problem on either of my PC monitors, and the PS3 has no problem with that cable/port on the TV.
Are there any workarounds?
My quick search indicates that it's possible that it can be cable specific? ie. Will work for some devices but not others? Does that even make sense?
Hi all,
I've just ordered this gorgeous phone and am waiting for it to be delivered. In the meantime I've been wondering given that it's capable of HDMI output and serve as USB host whether it is possible of it doing both at the same time, if say I hooked up the HDMI output along with other usb devices, like a USB drive and a keyboard via a usb HUB. I would be practically creating a bespoke docking station of sorts..
I know it's pushing the technology a little... and there are other alternatives to USB devices (NAS drives, wireless mouse/keyboards...), but my question is more about what the device is capable of.
Thanks.
Update:
So far I've successfully managed to plug in an old USB hub via a cheap micro-usb to USB adapter bought off e-bay. From there I hooked up a USB keyboard, Mouse, pen drive and also USB speakers.
I'm amazed it actually managed to power all of these devices without any problems (imagine battery drain is massive given that the usb hub is unpowered).
I would like to know if anyone has tried hooking up HDMI output while the USB is hosting other devices. Has anyone tried this already? I've searched everywhere and can't seem to find a definitive answer to my question.
As a side note, does anyone know of a docking station for the G2, similar to what you get with laptops?
Did you figure out the answer to this?

No, I have not yet tried this out. I had bought an HDMI cable/device thing but never got it to work on my TV.. apparently it had something to do with the technology that the phone uses for HDMI not being compatible with older Samsung TVs.
Would be great if anyone else has tried this out could post here, whatever the outcome
