This is kind of embarrassing, but I'm surfing on my phone without my Iconia close by and I can't remember if it has a micro or mini HDMI on it.

That is what the three USB ports are for.
However, as to your second question, I don't know the answer.

I don't think so i was looking into this a while back it would be a great mod. If I had the dock id take it apart

Need Seperate Adaptor
It would have been nice if they had built either an HDMI or MiniHDMI port right on the tab, but instead, you need to purchase an adaptor for HDMI output.
Samsung makes one called the "Samsung Galaxy Tab HDTV Adaptor", Samsung part number EPL-3PHPBE. With it, you plug in one end to the 30 pin connector port on your tab, then connect the 30 pin power cable that came with the tab into the adaptor (thus allows the unit to charge / stay charged while in use), and connect a standard HDMI cable to the other end of the HDTV adaptor.
You can purchase direct from Samsung, $49 I think, but I got mine on Amazon for $24.95.
Hope that helps mate.
Does this work now because of 2.3?

Nice info!
Can I just buy a normal micro USB on one end and a HDMI on the other or is the slip port a requirement on the nexus 4 for video out? I can't seem to find anything about it. Thanks

Hey folks.
I've been thinking about this for a while and I wonder if it is technically possible.
Basically I want to build my own desk dock. It should have HDMI output, charging and USB otg for connecting peripherals.
I'm not sure if it's possible this way, though.
I was thinking of using an otg y cable (with female usb and female microusb) as a base. The regular female USB would be hooked to an externally powered USB hub (just for the sake of having more than 1 USB port available). The female micro USB would be connected to a slimport HDMI adapter (to allow using it with a monitor or TV.
If anyone knows about the technical possibilities please let me know. Maybe someone has tried something like this before?
Thanks in advance

If I'm not wrong - n4 can't do usb otg and slim port hdmi at the same time.
What a pity!

Hi, guys. I have got my note 2 rooted. I would like to know if note 2 is able to read data from portable HDD(NTFS) via micro usb cable. I want to watch movies which store in my portable HDD. Thanks

I was able to read files from an external hdd with his own power supply, so I believe u will not face any problem. As for ntfs you have to use a third party app to mount it, though I don't know if there is any custom kernel that supports ntfs mount, the stock one does not support it.

Devil or AGNI kernel and download Paragon NTFS or USB OTG Helper from PlayStore.

I was not that lucky, had a Hitachi portable HDD tested, the HDD emitted an abnormal mechanical noise due to insufficient power supply. However, USB flash disk worked in that way perfectly.
Yes, the power provided by the phone is not enough. I used a little trick, I don't know if you can do it too: My 2.5" portable HDD had a Y USB cable. One plug is for power and data, the other one just for more power, if needed. I connected the power+data cable to my USB OTG cable, the other end to a 5V USB power supply. I don't know if it's good for the phone, but it worked like a charm and the phone didn't get warm or so.
But as far as I know, not every external HD has a Y shaped cable.
