Has anyone tried to use a usb-c to hdmi adapter to connect the S5E to a smart tv or other video device?
I know you can buy them, but not sure if they would work with this tablet.
They should work fine. However your device may boot into Dex when you first connect your device to a TV using a USB Type-C to HDMI cable,

I bought this adapter on Amazon and it works fine, it does launch DEX but if you don't want that just hit the home button and it goes back to normal mode. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QXMNF1X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Yes, I saw that one. I'm glad to know it works on our tablet. Thanks!
One question. Will it connect hdmi to tv without Dex?

Hi everyone,
I've searched this forum and on Google but didn't really find the answers to my questions.
If I want to connect my Nexus to a TV (that has a USB port of course) what cables and adapters do I need to use?
By searching I found out I need this adapter:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009UZBLSG
But what other cable/s do I need?
Thank you.

Just a heads up, there are cheaper ones that work better...
You screen will flicker with the SlimPort... at least mine did.

Can someone help? Do I need to buy a cable that has a male HDMI connector and a male USB connector so that it connects to my TV?
And along with it I need the slimport adapter (or any other adapter)?
Thanks.

Just a normal male to male hdmi cable, slimport goes to the hdmi input on your tv
It's easiest to just get a Miracast adapter since that's what the Nexus uses for Wireless Display. Just connect that little box to your TV via said HDMI cable and the nexus will connect to it directly, wirelessly.

That's no good for gaming though as there is a slight delay
Do you think that it will still support USB OTG? There is no info anywhere about this. I use it every day on my Note 2 (mouse and flash drivs mostly).
Also, do you think that the smart dock will still be compatible with it?

That doesn't sound like an OTG cable, HAS to be an OTG cable, which has a different pin arrangement that the phone recognises.

Hey guys,
I received today my MHL adpater
http://www.ebay.com/itm/171436891054?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
The signal to the TV is working fine.
My problem is when I'm connecting devices to the USB host port, there is a power over there but my phone not responding, while those devices are working with a simple OTG cable.
Some help over here?

I have been looking for the same thing, an MHL - OTG - charging dock/adapter/dongle, I have not found anything that people report as working reliably on the S5 (I am also looking for one to work with a Note 10.1 2014).
Have you tried to connect a power supply on the micrUSB port? I have a MHL adapter and it needs external power.

I even tried connecting a USB hub and I saw there is a power from the USB Host.

I was under the impression you can either use mhl or otg. Not both at the same time. You tried just using the thumb drive by itself without the hdmi plugged in?
anyone had luck finding an adapter allowing you to use hdmi alongside otg?
anyone found an adapter than can do hdmi and usb host at the same time??? there seem to have plenty for s4 but nothing for s5?? although s5 is using a newer and more capable mhl if i am not wrong

i meant the image quality,to just watch and control your device its ok,to watch a 720p movie its not ok,video will be blur sometimes and it will be a little delay at sound.
few days ago i used a friends standalone hdmi adapter was performing amazing even at 1080p.
it is very nice thank you very much

I got that hdmi connection kit and it works great with my S3 doing hdmi 1080p and otg simultaneous + charging. But with my S5 it will only do hdmi 720p or otg not both. Image quality is poor on the monitor but great on the HD TV.
Maybe "Display Link" is the way to go to get wired screen mirroring and otg at the same time on the S5?
What is otg?
USB On-The-Go, often abbreviated to USB OTG or just OTG, is a specification first used in late 2001 that allows USB devices, such as digital audio players or mobile phones, to act as a host, allowing other USB devices, such as USB flash drives, digital cameras, mice, or keyboards, to be attached to them.

Required: OTG Cable
Amazon Link: Micro-USB 3.0 OTG Adapter
Amazon Link: USB 2.0 OTG Cable
These are just some examples of cables available, there maybe better, or cheaper options
What is a OTG cable
When attached to a PC, an OTG device requires a cable which has a USB Standard-A plug on one end and a Micro-B plug on the other end. In order to attach a peripheral to an OTG device, the peripheral either needs a cable ending in a Micro-A plug, which is inserted into the OTG device's Micro-AB receptacle, or the OTG device itself needs an adapter cable with a Micro-A plug on one end and a Standard-A receptacle on the other. The adapter cable enables any standard USB peripheral to be attached to an OTG device. Attaching two OTG devices together requires either a cable with a Micro-B plug at one end and a Micro-A plug at the other, or can be achieved using a combination of the PC cable and adapter cable.

Thanks for your hard work on root/recovery. I was planning to try OTG print to USB printer tonight. I'll update here tonight after I get home and try it.
USB Serial adapter working here; FTDI chipset
Do you know if it matters if cable is usb 2.0 or 3.0 or are both supported?
I just wanted to report that when I connect an USB stick to the Fire (5.0.1) and try to use ES File Explorer to browse through its files, the Fire force-restarts.
Using Solid Explorer there's no such issue
OTG worked perfectly on 5.1.1 (rooted) using this drive. Same with a generic (cheap) OTG dongle similar to this. Plug-n-play.

Don't think I tried it on 5.0.1 doesn't crash on my twrp updated 5.1.1 on ES though. I did run the sd fix but no idea if that's of any significance.

An app is needed as far as I know. I haven't actually used it for anything, was just testing what works. Tested with the "UsbWebCamera" app. There are also apps that will stream the usb webcam from your Fire to another device. I could think of a couple nice uses for a usb webcam. Cheap car rear view camera, constantly recording car dash cam (record to a SanDisk high endurance video monitoring microSD). Personally I wouldn't drive without a dash cam. Too many crazy drivers who will swear they weren't texting while they ran right into you.
Power+OTG
Has anyone found out if this tablet supports OTG while charging?
It does not appear to support OTG + charging.

Hi! I got my new OP5 and I'm on the last version of FreedomOS.
I'd like to play some emulated games on my TV through HDMI cable in order to have the lowest lag possible.
