Kaiser sound dock yet?

Looked around the net but cannot see any yet, has anyone else been successful?

Someone did post a couple of links a few weeks ago about a very attractive dock to play music through your kaiser. You are talking about a music playing dock and not a charging dock aren't you? The only problem there was no price quoted for the docks on the site and the method of buying the product was a bit ambiguous. I think in order to get info about ordering, you have to contact the company. I've I aboth companies about the dock to see how much they cost as I would certainly buy in future
Edited to add: I found the thread talking about Kaiser sound docks: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350194
And here are the links for the same dock: http://www.4ustuff.com/info.php?itno=2051

Thanks for that. It'll probably show up on ebay first.
I'll have a hunt around see if I can get more links.

Judging from the email I was sent by the company, looks like 4ustuff are only wholesalers. Now who they supply to, I don't know

Here's an amazon link to the tytn version, don't know if it would be compatible, or if there's a tytnII version.

Not sure if this is what you're looking for but I have one of these.

I don't use the sound feature normally but I just tried it out and it works. It doesn't have built in speakers but comes with a mini-stereo jack...very similar to an iPod dock.

BUMP! Anyone found one yet?

What's wrong with the one Fitipaldi1 pointed out?

Has no built in speakers. Want one to use at work when i am in my test area so i can listen to music while charging the phone. The one i had for my Wizard also had a built in mic so i could use it for hands free too. Would be very useful!
The one that Dungbeetle pointed out may be ok but only available on USA Amazon and will not ship to the UK.

You cant buy a crappy pair of speakers and just plug them into the seido version?

Compact 3.5mm Audio/Video Jack

I'm trying to find a very compact A/V jack like this one here. This one is audio only, so it does not carry the video signal. Any suggestions?

I have this. it works great for the fm tuner, but does not work for tv out.

wow i would like to have this adapter...but I live in germany and i didn't find this one anywhere!

I found it on eBay.
I am looking for an adapter that is LIKE this, but that does work for video too. After tons of searching I found that nothing is available.

I spent months looking for one and never found it. I use the adapter that came with the phone and the $3 cable trick that is in another post on this forum. That works fine for me.

I bought a cable which worked fine, but then I found out that my Zune TV out cable also worked.

[PROJ] Full UI Via HDMI Out (need a tester)

Okay I have a few ideas on getting this to work, none of which are that difficult. I'm writing up an app right now to try it out, I should have it ready within the next couple hours.
However, I do have a problem, I have no HDMI cable! So can someone who has one get into contact with me on Gmail.
Just send me an email and tell me you'd be happy to test and as long as you'll get with me on GTalk once I send the app to you to discuss whether it works or not and any issues you have.
I'll update this post with more info when I'm done.
EDIT: First alpha sent to my 3 testers. Waiting for a reply from them before more info.

You probably got some volunteers already.. but I do have an hdmi cable and can help if needed.
Thx for working on this

Actually I haven't had anyone email me yet, so if you wanna hit me up so I have your GTalk for later feel free.
Also, just a little more info, this will probably KILL performance while it is running, since it'll be a loop constantly copying frames from buffer to buffer, but it will probably still be usable. I don't know yet.
Be prepared, it may kill your cat, blow up your house, and then take over the world, all while creating as much heat as a nuclear reactor. (Or it may just work )

Added on Gtalk and email sent. Ready to help you test

Sorry for the delay. Even with the Android dev I've done I've never done anything multithreaded. I have to run the copier in another thread to keep the system from freezing, so I should still get it tonight, but it'll take a little longer than I thought.

Added you to gtalk. Just tested SlingPlayer w/ Evo over HDMI, no joy of course.
Eager to test your app when available.
Thanks,
LK

As good as that sounds, it wouldn't do me any good
My only HDTV is an old rear projection 1080i that refuses to show 720p. It doesn't even have an HDMI input, it has a DVI, which I have an HDMI adapter for, but it still won't make it show 720p lol.
I need a new tv. Haha

Mini HDMI and Micro HDMI are different.

Okay so the first release is an epic fail. It tries to copy the frame, but it doesn't ever end up over HDMI. Also it takes too long to copy the frame to get smooth video, I can copy ~ 3-5fps max, which is ridiculous. There has to be a better way. And I may have it. Uno momento

ill add my name to the hat if you want to add more to this fun...
oops but im not rooted. so if you need rooted folks then i cant play.... :-(

Can you send the updated versions to the people you sent the beta to?

DX is the bomb!
Shameless plug: Get me DX points without any extra effort! Click these referral links instead: Same as davidhill21 ($12.20)
Cheaper one I found. Looks like a generic, while the one above is a brand-name copy. ($8.30)
I personally guarantee that when you order them, I will be happy.
Regarding the project: I'm really glad you're doing this. I can't test right now because I don't have a cable (I need more DX points, and then I'll get a free one) but I'm really glad to see this coming along.

TV Out?

I know that the Samsung Galaxy is DNLA capable with a compatible telly for streaming movies, etc but I've also seen videos online of a TV Out function on the Galaxy S via the 3.5mm port on the phone but I was wondering if anyone can confirm this and has used it?

Yeah I bought a cable for the TV-out, it's not the prettiest picture on a HDTV as it's composite, but it is fine if you are in a hotel and want to watch a film or surf the internet from your phone. It's not good for gaming as there's some lag.

Do you think it would work ok for like a SNES Emulator?

Many thanks.
Do you know if this is the same link that Tachikoma_kun purchased from?
Reason I ask is I note Tachikoma_kun is in the UK the same as I and I'd like to hear if he purchased from either a UK retailer or on Ebay.co.uk.

I bought mine from eBay.co.uk from a seller called "Superetrader", it was a CA-75U cable for Nokia N95-N96-N97, etc. It cost £1.94 including delivery.

This is the one that I bought:- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400136001596
The seller also does a great pull-up leather case for the SGS for the vast sum of £2.99 inc postage which I bought at the same time.

Is it possible to get a usb mini to hdmi cable, an then some how use it to display hd vid to your TV...?

Probably not, you might be able to get a VNC client on the phone and view it on a computer, but I doubt you can output HDMI over the USB port as you would have to design the hardware especially for that, and it would be a listed feature.

The cables exist... but probably not compatible with Galaxy S...
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/...l&subsubtype=data-cables-kits&tab=accFeatures
1. We need to know whether the hardware is capable.
2. If its hardware capable, then hopefully someone can build the software. If not... then we are stuck with composite lols.

I tried searching a bit, found a lead to some Japanese boards. So i opened a thread in 2 boards.
The guys over in DoCoMo boards in Japan and futaba/2ch claim it to work.
On the other hand, those guys are master trolls, i don't know if it would be wise to trust their word on this.
So i'd wait a bit more, but it at least gives some hope for it to be compatible.
Do remember that we didn't even know about the composite TVOUT when the device was launched.

Yes, I have purchased from SuperETrader before and did not have any problems with them then.
I'll order one in the next few days when I return home.

You may not have but I got it from the manual a few weeks before it was launched.

Well, you had the manual before the launch, i didn't...
Anyway, this is wierd. I searched a bit on some sites, and tried to filter down everything to samsung phones that support HDMI.
No results. By specs, none of samsung's phones support HDMI.
So why the hell does this product exist, and why does it say on the product page
"by connecting your compatible SAMSUNG phone"
But... no phones is compatible, by official specs.
You confuse me, Samsung, you seriously do.

Do Samsung themselves claim HDMI support on the phone?
It can send files via DLNA, and you can connect it to anything that can display an input from a composite connection.
I don't see why you are so angry, other than the fact you assumed it would allow HDMI.

Agreed... there is no mention and never has been mention of any HDMI connection.

He's not that angry, though it's hard to judge someone's intent from some text... and anyhow, he's not stressed that the galaxy s doesn't support HDMI out, he's confused as to why Samsung appear to have a cable on the market for which no Samsung phone on the market appears to have a use for, let alone the Galaxy.

The way i put it down was a bit off, i'm not even a bit angry. there's no reason for me to be. I bought this device regardless of HDMI support.
I'm just very confused, as SquidgyB says.
It's very odd that such a cable exists if there isn't a single product that supports it, supposedly.
Though i didn't think for a moment i'll get HDMI support from this phone (and actually, when i bought it i thought DLNA was the only way i can get a video output, so even the 3.5 composite was a pleasent suprise), i'd be happy if it turns out to support it.
I think we will all be.

Bose headphone functions doesnt work with S7 Edge

Hi everyone,
I bought an iOS compatible Bose Quiet Comfort 25 when I had an iPhone, now on S7 Edge the function keys on the cable does not work. Volume keys, next previous etc.
Any work around for this?
Thanks in advance

Bose support was useless for me with this issue. They told me there was no way to use an IOS Bose headset.
I searched on eBay & found a seller which sold an Android cable which worked. Just unplugged the old cable & plugged in the Android cable.
Good luck - be patient - search hard & ask the seller for confirmation.

Hmmmm - I'm a bit confused now looking up info on QuietComfort 25. Specs say the cable is compatible with both Android & IPhone.
My experience has been with needing a different cable for the Bose SoundTrue to work with Samsung Android.
I'll try to check my QuietComfort 25 & see if I have in-line remote mic with it. If I do, I'll try it in my S7e
