so there seems to be a few issues that can cause a video out cable to not work. the first is the pin assignment on some cables are different (eg, ipod)
that seems to be covered here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741542&highlight=RCA
but after ripping apart a cable and re-soldering it in every possible way it seems there is another issue. it seems some cables have some sort of box or something in the middle of them like this one.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000S0GXIA/
on the other hand some don't, like this.
http://www.amazon.com/6FT-Camcorder...4?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1283148966&sr=8-4
a common trend I'm noticing in the forum is that all the links to working ones seem to have this box, also in a search on ebay for galaxy s video cable almost all the results had a box.
so 2 questions!
1) if you had a cable that did or didn't work please post whether or not it had a box. and if it didn't or did work.
3) wtf does that box do?
unfortunately the 2 cables i have both don't have the box, but they both had the correct pin assignment. and id like to get the one i cut up to work. so plz helpppzzzzz!!!!!
Why on earth couldn't you just get the Nokia one in the first place?
i had 2 already sitting around my house, but i just ordered a nokia one....
i hope it works
sorry, which box are you referring to?
I just received a 3.5mm to RCA cable without a box and it doesn't work.

is there anything on the cable other than straight wire? like a hard plastic cylinder or something?

This is just a thought! I have a Canon camera with the video out function using a mini usb cable. I lost the cable, but I remember it having mini usb to red black and yellow RCA out.
Has anyone given this a try. I’ve been searching for the correct cable online and they seem to be on back order. It would be nice if AT&T or Sprint would carry accessories for the products they sell.
Again just a thought.
I'm still distracted by your avatar.
<speaking_to_myself>OK... now concentrate</speaking_to_myself>
I don't think that this combination will work. I would be really surprised if Canon and HTC are using the same pins. But you are right, both use mini USB.
Hi all,
I got an rca cable off of ebay to use the tv out function on my galaxy s, but I can't get it to work. I enable tv out in the display settings, set it to pal, but nothing shows up on the tv.
Anyone else had this problem?
should probably mention,
running JVK, 2.3.3, with super curio kernel. lagfix + ext4 enabled.
purchased form ebay.
Are you sure the cable is compatible? What does it say on the ebay site? Does it mention Nokia anywhere?
I've read some cables need to put the yellow pin into the red hole, did you try it?

it was titled 'genuine tv out RCA cable for samsung galaxy i9000'
Try every pin to the yellow hole and make sure your tv is set to right channel.
I try 3 cables (nokia, sony and galaxy s) and nothing, maybe a differente 3.5mm jack??? I also try my SGS head phone and work very strange, but the original one works well. I try the same in other device, with the same result.

I made a tv-out cable myself from a spare headset ;-) but I found out that the video polarity is reversed.
So audio L+R are PLUS, but the video cable is MIN.
This would probably cause the other model cables not to work.
If you'd reverse the wires on the yellow video cable it might work fine (no guarantee, cut cables on your own risk)
I'll try and find my wiring scheme for you, must have it somewhere.

Hi.
I found at home a jack to RCA cable and it works pretty well.
Only one is interestning, video line is RED, but normally in cables like this YELLOW is for video and RED/WHITE is for audio.
Reverse the wire, how?
Thanks

Before I cut my cable, did it work?

Anyone really like my post,dont forget to press the thanks button
Thanks!!!
I destroy 3 cables, but finelly works.
Thanks
I succesfully made this cable according to this instruction:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/713/s8530wave2.jpg/
Its instruction to wave 2 but it also works with galaxy s plus because of the same tv output. And I modified in the same way originall samsung cable (AATCX10CBE), not nokia cable as on this picture
So there is no need to completly cut all free wires, just only the yellow video cable. In audio cables (white and red) you only need to cut silver wires
And if somebody is interested I asked samsung about cable to this phone and they gave me the model of compatible cable ECC1TX1BBECSTD. The only problem is that its impossible to buy this cable anywhere ...
I buy this one:cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180725667671
Works!!!
Thanks
Hi,
so the Samsung ECC1TX1BBEGSTA cable works without modifying it. Is it correct? Even if Samsung does not declare that it is compatible with DS Plus.
So because I have tried the Samsung AATCX10CBECSTD cable and it does not work, probably the ECC1TX1BBEGSTA cable and the AATCX10CBECSTD cable are different?

hi
by doing the mods stated a few posts ago you will have the following pin configuration:
1 - video, 2 - ground, 3 right, 4 - left, by doing so you will have the classic av cable
that you can buy from any store suitable for you regular video camera, so all you have to do is plug the yellow rca connector into the red rca in your tv and the red rca in the yellow rca on your tv.
It works 100%, i've tried it. By doing that you will have ground also on your audio channels and you don't have to cut/modify the cable.

at common cable pinouts the "c" version is the right one for galaxy S.
best regards
Same same but different

so i'm looking at the picture you attached but i cant realy understant wich wire goes where...can you exlain please?
Simple question and I can't find an answer no matter where I look or who I call.
Can anyone verify if the multimedia Dock: Link that came out for the GT version 1 models is or isn't compatible with the GT2?
I'm wanting to install an in dash tablet in my car. These samsung models are about the only ones out there that have a small dock that can hide behind the dash, which have a power port and an RCA audio out port, allowing me to charge it constantly while I'm driving and send audio out to an amplifier pumping jams to my speakers.
Anyways, if anyone could answer this question it'd be a big help.
Does not work. Not for me at least, and it is designed forspecific tablet as well.

The keyboard dock works fine for me, so does the OTG cable and HDMI dock, dunno about what you have.

Did you buy this online? If so, where (url) and do you have a product number?
I bought an a/v cable which did not work. So, before I buy some new products I want to be sure that it will work.
Thank you in advance!
HDTV Adapter is EPL-3PHPBEGSTA. Works with P6200 and P5100. Official Samsung product, bought from a Samsung store. It's weird, though, the same adapter did not work on a friend's P3100 from a different country. It just brings up one of those 'open with' dialog boxes with unrelated apps on connecting. I think this is a software glitch, though, because mine is on the latest stock firmware, and it works perfectly. Tons of websites also list this as a compatible accessory for all Tab 1s and 2s.
USB host cable is just a cheapie cable costing a couple of bucks off ebay. Works on P6200, P7100, P7300, P3100, P5100. Tried and tested all.
Also all available Samsung keyboard docks work with all available tabs, there's only a removable plastic guide stand that's different. In my case, the same dock for the P6200 worked with the P5100 once I removed the plastic. In my case, I procured a keyboard dock for the P7500 and modified the plastic to fit my P5100. Works just fine after modding the stand.

On my quest to make an adapter to use my Atrix Lapdock with my S4 I already destroyed an mhl adapter, and now I want to try this dock from ebay.
Has anyone had any experience with it?
Let me know, looks nice.

Be careful. I bought one of these on Amazon a while back...
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C4CVT7A/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
...and I realize it might not be the same exact thing, but it looks similar in construction.
About 2 weeks after I started using it, it started shorting out and sparking! I was lucky that I was right beside it when it started happening and got my phone out of it before any damage was done. The problem was with the wiring / circuitry in the base of the unit. I threw it away immediately.
So, hopefully your will work a lot better, just be careful.

Thanks for the info. I usually buy stuff from DX, so I'm quite used to opening and doing a good quality check for every item I buy before using it!
I got the item, it works good and the build quality is good.
BUT, when you connect an external power supply, the power to the usb host port gets disconnected and the usb lines get shorted. So you can use either the USB OR the HDMI. There are 3 relays inside the device; by disabling the top one you can do the 500ms short trick and get the HDMI + USB HOST + CHARGING features, but it takes some effort.

Are you able to use or make a charge only cable (only 5V and ground)? That way the USB data lines should not be affected if the charger shorts the data pins.
Or is the one of the relays shorting the data pins inside the adapter?
Sorry, maybe I didn't explain correctly. The adapter shorts the phone's usb data pins, everything else is untouched. A delay circuit is implemented too, so it looks like they tried to do the 500ms trick but failed miserably so they sold the dock as is.
has anyone got any further with this project? I have an original Samsung smart dock and have now got the hdmi converters but nothing is shown on the lapdock screen. The adaptors and lapdock work fine as I have had it connected to my sky hd box?
Hi, did you try the adapters with a TV? My adapters work well and send a (distorted) image to the lapdock..
Yes I tried them both ways as an output to a tv and also an input to a moniter
looks pretty interesting. huh
