[REQ] microUSB Video Out for PC

Hi, I'm wondering if there is a video out option for PCs, Ive only been able to find mhl hdmi adapters for the nexus 7.. would it be possible to modify the hardware of an mhl adapter and/or develop an app that allows a PC video in connection via microUSB for use as a dual monitor?

[Q] Nexus 4 using with disability

Hello,
My name is Adriaan Aerts, I am 40 years old and I have a muscular atrophy so I am in an electric wheelchair. I live in The Netherlands.
The reason for my e-mail to you is I want to buy a mobile phone which I can control all by myself by using using a USB mouse. Actually I am a 100% Apple-user, but unfortunately it's not possible to control an iPhone or iPad with a mouse. So that's the reason why I would like to buy an Android device which is fully on screen to control. As you know the LG Nexus 4 has no hardware buttons. (I can not use my hands for that, so on screen control is important)
I know that it's possible to control the Galaxy Nexus with a USB mouse.
I've seen the LG Nexus 4.
I have two questions and can someone check these 2 important questions for me:
1. Can you control the LG Nexus 4 with a USB mouse?
2. If the LG Nexus 4 gets into his stand-by mode (After for example 30sec. not using it) can you "wake it" by clicking or moving the mouse?
I hope someone will help me with these questions. Ofcourse you can also mail me. mail-add-adriaanaerts-dot-nl
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Adriaan Aerts

Is it at all a possibility to use a Bluetooth mouse?

No, it not possible to use a Bluetooth mouse, cause my wheelchair has a infrared mouse which I have to use.
So I need to connect USB infrared mouse by using a micro USB adapter.
I already have that adapter and it works on a Galaxy Nexus, but I prefer a Nexus 4.
Reasons: Jelly bean and 2gig memory.

I don't quite follow that logic (sorry), but you could try this:

Enable OTG for the Nexus 4. Never tried it myself, but others seem to report success.

You use iPhone a so your not gonna figure out how to fastboot flash root or anything. As we all know you need a power source (y cable) a custom kernel. So get a different phone. Get the Optimus g. Has micro sd, lte, and I believe otg support(btw otg is needed for use of usbs mices keyboards) with the same exact hardware as a Nexus 4(but it has hardware keys) . You can even flash the same rom for a Nexus to a Optimus g.

USB DAC support?

The auxiliary ports on all phones are crap, does the Nexus 4 support exerting music through USB? If not, is there a kernel that has the capability of enabled that function? Thanks.

Probably yes, but you would need a Y cable splitter for the USB power. In the end you'd get a really bulky setup. Not worth it IMHO.

I don't need the power I just want to send info to my car audio.

That is called USB audio out. The Nexus 7 supports OTG of of the box, but even then it cannot support USB audio out.

So the chances of it working on a Nexus 4 is slim.

Thanks. .I have one of those that I used with the Og Evo!!! It's nor working with this phone. Is there any differences between mhl adaptes or r they all the Same? ?

Yup u need the one designated for the s4. I sent u that link as an example of what they are. Personally I would get it from samsung. I've bought 3 that said they work with s4 and they didnt. I have a friend who got the one from Samsung and his works fine.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

a lot of them DO work with the S4 still that are "older" mhl adapters, but you also need the 5 to 11 pin adapter for those to work like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0089...qid=1388224095&sr=8-10&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70
Otherwise, just get one line what was noted a couple of posts up, as it's already utilizing the 11pins and saves you the trouble. (make sure you're getting a legit one & check the reviews!)
Alternately, you can get the allshare cast hub (by Samsung) which also mirrors via hdmi.
It is also possible without an mhl dongle or allshare cast hub to push things (pics, movies & youtube) directly if you have tv/home theater/blu ray that's dlna enabled to push to.
I've done it from the older mhl w/ 11 pin adapter, newer 11 pin, allshare hub & by dlna enabled device without issue. I mainly use the latter nowawdays, but still use the other methods on occasion because of the screen mirroring.
As a side note, both mhl adapters are OEM.

Its sad I didn't know this thing had HDMI out capabilities

[Q] USB otg + charging?

I have the galaxy tab 4 10.1 installed in the dash of my truck. I need to be able to charge and use USB otg at the same time. Is there any way to do this? I was able to use a USB otg Y cable to do this with my old nexus 7 bit it doesn't work on this tablet. I've tried googling for answers bit have found anything.

Just thought I would share what I found. Not sure if I will get in trouble for this but if you go to bestbuy's website and paste this at the end
site/samsung-usb-connection-kit/2837365.p?id=1218363393359&skuId=2837365
It brings you to a link of a usb host piece that is compatible with all samsung devices. I am thinking of buying one to test it out and would be happy to report back if it does work.

I bought the that Meditato posted. I can confirm that it works. Only prob I ran into tho is when removing the power and plugging it back in, the keyboard connected/disconnected flashes back and fourth. The keyboard does work while its doing that...
