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?
Sent from me CM7 Nightly HTC Vision using XDA App that needs a thanks button implemented

in the Desire Z video there is a "Media Link" Cable also. and the specs are the same between the 2

For the better, because Samsung Galaxy S doesn't support HDMI over the usb connection. Read the other thread
Yeah, is not possible, and has been confirmed multiple times. Shame!

[Q] hdmi out?

Can you connect nexus s to the tv like vibrant either hdmi or from the 3.5 jack and how about wii mote will it work
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
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.

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?

[Q] Best micro HDMI cords?

HI guys im wondering where can i find the best hdmi cords for my G2X phonw. I recently ordered one in amazon and arrived today but wasnt the same connection to my phone :/. Im pretty pissed off since was up for it, so now im posting this thread to see if any one can direct me to some good hmdi cords of the G2X? thank u for ure help.
i orderd an iogear cable from newegg it was like 12 buck free shipping. Works perfect. sorry cant post links yet
I got a 6' cable for $3 after shipping from Amazon. I should get mine in a couple days. It said it was for G2x; I hope it fits my phone!
whatever you do, stay away from the monoprice cables.. There are multiple posts about their cables frying the phone.
To input my two cents, don't buy a cable that reads gold plated or anything of the like. Off the top of my head I can think of Monster Cables. I don't know about MicroHDMI and Monster Cables.
Why? Well, digital cables only need to pass 1s and 0s (i.e. binary). Back in the day with analog cables, the wires used in cables really were effective. Nowadays, simple silver will get the job done the same as gold-plated / gold-tipped / dipped-in-gold cables.
I have a 3 part response to the post above.
1. Used to work at Circuit City, and we were, pretty much told to push cables, and that type of accessory. Why? Because the cost on say a 4" RCA Video cable was $7 when they would sell them to customers for $70. Yup. I purchase a $70 dollar Top of the Line Monster Cable Video only RCA cable back in the day for $7 bones. Cables are a big business.
2.Plenty of people, I know that work at electronic stores, say that when purchasing a HDMI cable, you don't need to spend anything more than $20 bux.
As long as its under 14'.
3.Silver is actually a better conductor of electricity than gold. I don't know how much better, it actually is. The reason they don't use Silver for plating cables and such, is becuase it oxidizes. Gold doesn't.
I order all my cables from monoprice.com

In what way did it not fit? Micro HDMI is Micro HDMI there is not varying versions its all the same size. Now if you are saying the surrounding rubber wouldn't allow you to plug it into the socket I can understand but the actual socket is all the same.

I don't think it does as there's no proper OTG support as the port doesn't supply power.

That does work in theory, I didn't bring it up as I don't think regular users should be subjected to such bull**** . I don't think anyone has tried it though specifically with a USB ethernet adapter, or at least no one has posted about doing so.
It'd probably work, make sure you get a realtek USB ethernet adapter. Anything that works on even a China generic tablet will likely work.

Its not the wrong connection, the female micro USB part is where your charger plugs into to give power
And the big female USB is where you plug in flash drives etc...
And what do you mean "not a Samsung type of port"

Haha no worries
I really wish the N4 does supports an actual port for flash drives or any other kind of USB
It really defeats the purpose of having OTG
Good thing I got a portable solar powered external battery to plug into

Believe it only affects the pinout for MHL though, so OTG should work fine. Not 100% sure though since a friend with an S3 ran into issues with an OTG cable I gave him.
