[Q] Compatible dock

I'm looking for a compatible dock for my DHD. I've found this one on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Proporta-US...KPUY/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1288103826&sr=8-5
My previous phone was an HD2 (and I still have it) and the DHD is roughly the same size as the HD2, though a tad bigger, and the MicroUSB port is in the same place. Does anyone have this dock and can they confirm that it fits the DHD?

Is that a picture of the actual dock; i.e. is the microUSB port dead centre?
If so the Desire HD will not fit as the microUSB port is to the right of the phone, and the 3.5mm jack is to the left.

Well if it doesn't fit the Desire HD for that reason then it shouldn't fit the HD2 either as both their USB ports are in the exact same place, but it's advertised as an HD2 dock?

A dock like this one ?

From what I understand, there is no dock yet which supports 3.5 jack so that we can also have the ability of listenning music even though dhd on the dock?

I am not sure.
Just imagine that you are a all-day-desktop-man and your DHD is on a dock all the time and you want to listen to music via headset (so that no one else gets disturbed) with your DHD while it's on the dock, so what is the suitable dock for that?

If you look closely at the other pictures for that dock you can see that it indeed does have a 3.5mm connection.

A review for cradle. (No 3.5 mm input)

MHL (micro USB to HDMI) adapter works fine!

I just tested today my MHL adapter from monoprice (http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=108&cp_id=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8805&seq=1&format=2) and it works just fine.
It actually mirrors the phone screen all times but I could not change this behavior.

Sweet! I really dig monoprice... they did me good on hdmi cables.
I was curious to know if your touch inputs on the phone transfer over to the TV set as well. Like a circle appearing where your fingers are touching the screen.

kind of a stupid question but does this remove the phone charging abilities?

no. there is a micro usb port on the side of the adapter for charging.
In fact, you must have it charging to work.

I bought the monoprice one and, while it has a charging port, it doesn't require the charging cord to be plugged in in order to work... It just won't charge the phone at the same time if it's not plugged in.

[QUICK REVIEW]The Gameklip!!! Greatest accessory EVER!!!

So I just got this thing for my One X called the Gameklip. What it is is a bracket that mounts your phone to a PS3 controller effectively turning it into an awesome portable game system. It is made by a fellow XDA'er, he charges $15, makes them to order specifically for whatever phone you order it for. Believe me when I tell you, this thing is worth EVERY damn penny. It's just a piece of plastic, but it is damn sturdy and the One X fits in it perfectly. Check out his thread to see what it's about and expect a video review from me tomorrow evening. To summarize what I will be saying in the video, if you game on your One X and use the PS3 controller, you MUST buy this thing. It's not an option. Buy it. This is EASILY the coolest thing ever made for Android phones. You buy now!

Lol, that looks so tacky! If I had a PS3 controller I'd prolly buy one though...

Once you figure out how to put it on, it goes on nice and smooth. It's flexible enough that it snaps on with a minimal amount of effort.

There are stock pics in the OP. Video review is coming, probably won't get to it tonight though. Been having issues with my phone, gonna flash a new ROM and get my HOX all set back up again. That's gonna take some time.

Does the wired version work with an unrooted One X?

It is my understanding that ICS does have native USB game controller support but don't quote me on that. This is just a plastic bracket, there are no electronics in it. The "wired version" just comes with a USB OTG cable. If you have an OTG cable already, you can try it out and see if it works for you. You also won't need to buy the wired one then. But considering where you're posting, I must recommend that you do root. It opens up a world of possibilities, including bluetooth PS3 controller support.

What emulators are you guys using? I grabbed "john nes" from the Play store and I'm having trouble getting the PS3 controller to work with it.

I have used DroidEmu and N64oid so far. Yet to try Gensoid and GENPLUSDroid I have installed.
Finally tried XBox controller and was PnP!

I cant get anything to work with this PS3 controller. It pairs but thats about it.

does the JoyCenter app show buttons being pressed?

flawedlegacy said:

I can't find a joycenter app on the play store. I'm using DroidEmu and the Sixaxis app. The Sixaxis app starts up and tells me "Client connected" then the 1 light stays lit on the controller, then I switch the IME to Sixaxis controller. When I fire up DroidEmu with a rom running I get nothing. I tried playing with some settings in DroidEmu but no luck.

I know he has a Test App too, but I have to use this as well as the PS3 pairing to get mine to work. I have a thread on it.

Nexus 4 fits in the $5 infuse car dock!

I ordered the Infuse 4g dock from ATT for $5 shipped because it was supposedly a perfect fit for the Samsung Galaxy S3. However I sold my S3 for the Nexus.
To my pleasant surprise, the dock fits perfectly with the N4, maybe even a little snug when trying to take it back out.

this desktop dock is different from what is being talked about in the thread right?
because one of the reviews of the dock mentions how the S3 does not fit snug in the dock, can any one verify?

Didn't know there wasn't one. This will be my first stock phone (whenever Google gets around to shipping....).

Does the infuse car dock charge the N4?

Looking at those pictures, do the mount points scratch the phone at all? Are the corners of the dock rubbery? Looks like a good option till some magnetic/wireless charging mounts come out (if ever!).

This dock does work as well, I had this for my Infuse. It isn't a tight fit, but the gap on each side of the phone is probably the thickness of a sheet of paper.

Does it? Dam I just gave my dock away to :/
It's hard to believe it fits since all the dimensions are bigger on the nexus, maybe its because of the corners being more rounded on the nexus.

I ordered one and it was initially backordered and eventually canceled. Was hoping it would work with the N4, now it does, and I don't get one. :crying:

where for $5
I don't see it for $5? The links that are shared on here for $13 is for the desktop dock and not the car one. Car dock looks like it is $26-27 on amazon?

SlimPort Output not working.

Hello all, I've recently bought a analogix slimport adapter for my nexus 5 and nexus 7
My nexus 7, works fine with it, but my nexus 5 does not work at all. any ideas?

Both are stock rooted. I had fauxkernel on the 5 but I returned to stock for testing, but other people said works fine with other kernels including faux... Bad adapter? Bad HDMI? Bad phone? Works with my nexus 7, so why not the 5?. Weird

UPDATE!!
ALRIGHTY THEN!
I received all the products today!
REPORT:
Connected the HDMI 1.4a to the nexus 5 to see if that would work.... NO GO Analogix sp1003 + nexus 5+ HDMI 1.4a = NO GO on my nexus 5.... BUT, it WORKS with the nexus 7 (2013).... but my nexus 7 worked with the old cables anyway so i expected it to work.... Analogix adapter? RETURN to amazon!!
so, offbrand LinkS 6ft Slimport to HDMI cable that i got (link above, no adapter, just cable)...... WORKS with BOTH my nexus 5 and 7! yay!
why the hell does the official analogix ( i don't know if its official but....) not work with the nexus 5? I don't know, and i really don't care now because I have a cheaper set up with no need to carry around an extra HDMI cable...
By the way, I think i may have gotten a bad adapter from analogix, but I mean, it works flawlessly with my nexus 7 but not at all with the 5 so not sure on that, many of you reported that the analogix is the perfect one for the 5, but it was a no go for me, so YMMV! ( your mileage may vary)
any questions?
