Hdmi out? No. Tv out via 3.5? Possibly, might want to try to ask some sites that already have the phone. Someone said wiimote will work since it has 2.1 bluetooth.

its best to ask a site with the NS to test the vibrants hdmi out cable and see if it will work i have not seen any info about that outside of it not having an hdmi connector on-board

I doubt it with the initial release. It's possible if they release a rev 2 version, but right now there is no type of hdmi out on the phone from watching the videos and looking at the pictures.

How about DLNA?

Hey,
any progress in this? I would like to buy Nexus S, but HDMI is a wanted feature. Have anyone tried that Samsung HDMI-microUSB cable?
Cheers Jakoob

Seriously?! No offend, but do you have a clue what kind of connection you have on your G2?? And do you have a clue what that cable is?? LoL
To answer your question, NO. That is a micro HDMI cable. It is NOT possible. G2 doesn't have micro HDMI port. Only micro USB.

I'm thinking that someone who doesn't know the difference between micro hdmi/usb might also not understand your syntax for "does not equal"?

ouch guys harsh lol.
** Nope you cannot sorry I wast thinking about this the other day and I was like wait, its a G2.... -_- talk about lame, I wish it could though.
Being one who shops for cables on Amazon, I can say that a few I've come across have been named and or detailed wrong.
This cable could be micro USB to HDMI but ya, not aware of that working.
Besides, the desire z has dlna support. (Which is something I would like to see in cm)
Why worry about cables?

We've all been asking the same question, samsung won't tell us why it's there, but speculation is that either it's there and just not enabled, or it's just part of their basic touchwiz rom and they forgot to remove it.

yea i think they just forgot to remove the option.. like for wallpapers in Settings>Display. it doesnt really need to be there since it was used to change the lockscreen wallpaper which can be done on the SGS but not the SK4G . Maybe samsung could've taken their time on the this one.
I use the tv out it I got it to werk wit a cable for my ipod to watch a movie n I thought it might werk n it did. I use the cable to go in the headphone jack it werk great like the evo mirror app it show the home screen n some app on tv

Dude, before you go hating does anyone have proof that the thing actually WORKS on the SK4G?!?! (like a YouTube Video SHOWING that it works???)
This should work, and its the lowest price... basically anywhere. I am getting one.

i tried a audio/video cable used for my camcorder and it didnt work. since its obvious that the old school audio/video cable for ipods work i suggest buying those. if u look on amazon you can get them for around .36 plus $3 shipping.

hdmi cable?

If I want to connect my phone to my tv, what kind of HDMI cable would I need and where would I get one? There seems to be a few different types.
I just spoke to clove re this very question at the moment LG do not have one listed,but this one will do the job.

any micro hdmi cable will work
not mini hdmi try ebay
Sent from my LG-P920 using Tapatalk
Got one for £2.50 on Ebay from HK, videos play great on my HD TV and the quality seems no different to any other hdmi cable i used before with my cameras... You might have to wait a while for it to arrive though (the one i bought took 9 days to arrive!).
Not sure if links are allowed on here, so just type in "MICRO HDMI TO HDMI CABLE CORD FOR LG OPTIMUS 2X 3D NEW" on Ebay, the seller i bought from is Kingsun, was the cheapest i found on Ebay - Cheapest UK ones are around £4 - £5
as above, bought one from ebay for a couple of quid, works fine!
You didn't get one with your phone?
I got one in my phone box, even says LG on it.
Hi, am using the original cable LG DHC-N100, which is originaly for LG Optimus 2X P990.
The cable is compatible with HDMI 1.4 (3D) which is important for LG Optimus P920 3D
And I paid about 14€ for that, quite cheap.
Thank you all for the infos about the micro hdmi cable. I saw many on ebay. It`s important to be 1.4 if I have an 3D tv? If not, the cable could be 1.3?
Yes...It's important...

To use it on a 3D TV it's important that the cable is 1.4 type. I don't know much about how a HDMI works but is has something to do with data flow, which is bigger with the 3D images and video than the normal blueray and HDMI.
The strange thing is that I have LG 50PX950N tv, and I don't know why but the 3D from the phone is not working...at least not always. I think it has something to do with the TV - I've not twicked it yet.
PS: if you want we can chat in romanian in PM.

I've been reading A LOT about the Nexus S these past few weeks. Never seen anything saying this is possible...
Don't know if it's possible. However if you have a Samsung smart TV hooking up to your home network and the internet, install the app called SwipeIt on both the TV and your phone, you can "swipe" your phone screen to the TV. This is for all Android phones not just the NS.

Yeah my friend got me jelous of his s2 that have tv out capabilities. He also gave me a free hdmi cable to test it out and im disapointed knowing that nexus s don't have tv out capabilities. I hope someone will port the mod for us or it is not even possible because we are lacking of hardware requirements?

Android stick with scart connector

I was wondering if there are and android sticks with a scart connector.
Since I have a very old TV and getting one with a HDMI connector isn't an option for me I was hoping if there is a product like this.
If So, what are the costs of this product.
The ones I've seen So far are all HDMI.
I am aware that there are HDMI to SCART cables but they are a bit to expensive.
Thanks in advance

no offence dude but if you can afford a pc, an internet connection, a mini pc, power to power it, you can afford to buy a $2/£2 hdmi-scart adaptor from ebay :good:

Yes, that cable will not work - converting HDMI to scart is not that simple. Best bet is to get the stick with the a/v output I mentioned above....
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
i was really just using that link as an example , the proper cable should be there somewhere, and are you sure it wont work? im sure ive used a xbox360 converter before with no probs on an old tv at my sisters
edit: if the cable above is wrong as mentioned then jetfin's option probably seems the easiest route.
however i cant find any support for this device so if you do run into a problem which lets face it with these sticks you probably will at some point, theres not gonna be much help.
also something to note :c+p'd from the website
"""""Now on to the less than stellar bit. The camera. We were all excited because we thought we’d found a bargain basement way to add Skype video calling to our TV (compared to products like the Logitech Skype camera which costs hundreds of dollars). But to our dismay Skype refused to work with the dongle, and not only Skype. We tried Tango too, and even Google Talk failed to load. So it looks like there’s either a) a bug in the firmware or b) the thing is designed not to let you access the camera via a video chat application.
It totally ruins the point of having a camera in the device, what else are you going to do, photograph (or video) yourself sitting on the couch? Not really, eh?"""""
360 outputs in interlaced too. I'm guessing you would need to have a deinterlacer too. There is a hdfury that converts to VGA then you could VGA> to rgb thru a deinterlacer prob only cost couple of hundred quid lol
