Cable to connect to Ipod dock?

There is an IPOD connector on my audio receiver and no available audio jack. Is there a cable with a 3.5mm male and an ipod connector on the other end that would let me play the GS4G through the IPOD connector?
I'm pretty sure ipod docks use a data connection to get music from the ipod. I don't know if they exist but there might be a usb to female ipod adapter out there, if the receiver is smart enough to read any usb device.
I'm also surprised your receiver doesn't have an aux input. My pioneer from the 80s has one that I use for all mp3 players, just using a 3.5mm to RCA cable.
Is THIS what your looking for? Here's another one.

Looking for fixed car bracket

Hi all,
My employers are looking for approx 100 x car mounting brackets.
We need the following:-
Strong
Able to be wired into vehicle loom - no cigarette plugs (brodit style plug would be a bonus)
We would like something similar to the Brodit products (but they do not make anything for the Atrix2...yet)
Any suggestions?

[Q] Is it possible to connect USB-Stick and HDMI at the same time? (eg. dock)

Hi,
often I want to sort my videos recorded by the PVR with my Tablet (ed.: Easier seek and rename)
and watch it also on my big TV via HDMI (less complicated atm then to stream it).
So I need the USB-Stick connected to it and the HDMI, too.
Is there some kind of adapter providing this with the SGN10.1 ?
Regards
Splotz
Not possible ?
ed.:
I found the pinout of the SGT10.1.
edit: Its SGT 7", but maybe the same pinout

Looks like it could be possible to use "all" things..
Hope there will come a dock or keyboard dock to use it like a full port netbook.
Or is there already a multimedia dock available ?
Don't think so.
Something like that for the Note 10.1... wanna have...

(these pins are different, but it should be easy to build something similiar if samsung did not "lock it down" in some way)
ed.:
Here is something about how to build your own cables.

The only thing I really liked about asus TF300 was the ability to easily connect usb hdd (even ntfs) to the dock while it was connected to TV through micro-hdmi. I set up a bluetooth keyboard and mouse and managing the tablet on the tv was a peace of cake. But I returned it because the performance sucks on TF300. I really wish there were some similar dock for the note tab too.

I think the Note can connect to the allshare cast dongle with is wireless mirroring. To basically the same thing. Or if you have a newer Samsung tv it connects wirelessly. to it as well.
Not sure if you can connect a usb hdd to the Note though through the usb connector.

Thx, thats true.
But I am looking for hardware connectors for HDMI, USB, Charging and Audio at the same time. Like a "real" Multimedia Docking Station / Cable.
Usable everywhere with HDMI TVs, etc...
(Maybe the SGN10.1 has also analog TV+Audio out as I saw some adapters for Galaxy Tab with these connectors)
Soo, it's half a year later... I'm looking for the same solution as the OP... I want to be able to connect my Note to a HDMI monitor, then have at least 2 usb ports (mouse and keyboard, third one would be nice) and be able to charge it at the same time. I'm looking online for a cable that would allow that but it seems impossible. Is there any hope for Note to be an interactive center?
There is one solution though... I could buy the wireless hdmi dongle, then bluetooth mouse and keyboard (does Note support 2 devices through BT at the same time?) and thus leave the charging port free but that's not so good option considering that I wouldn't be able to plug even USB stick through such setting. Still, that would cost a lot more than I'm willing to pay for it since I don't have BT keyboard nor mouse and the wifi gadget is too expensive if you ask me.
hdmi and usb at same time?
the diagam posted under 'build your own cables' shows all the connections on the 30 pin connector, but doesnt yet show which wires hook to an hdmi cable, or how to hook up hdmi.
further confusing is the fact that none of the labels for the pins on the samsung connector match any of the signals listed in the hdmi Wiki page.
would someone who has opened an hdmi adapter or dock please post wiring info for an hdmi hookup?
please? or perhaps high res photos of both sides of a dock connector board?

[Q] What triggers car mode on the Motorola Vehicle Navigation Dock?

So the Motorola Vehicle Navigation Dock for the Droid Razr Maxx HD claims that it automatically triggers car mode in the phone when it is connected.
I've read that it has something to do with the micro-usb on the dock, but there must be something different about this micro-USB.
Can someone please explain what automatically triggers car mode on the dock? Did they bridge a resistor between pins 4 & 5 of the micro-USB?
Thanks!
You can have it set up to triger with a smart action.
You can get a programmable tag or use bluetooth as a trigger.
I won't try to disassemble my car dock to check but I guess it is the micro-usb car dock yes...
Now how to check it... good question, is there a chip in the dock, or is it just a resistor or an inverted wiring...
I believe it has something to do with the micro-usb (and maybe a chip).
Can you explain this Smart Action to me? How would I go about getting it to trigger car mode on my phone by connecting to a car dock?
i know with the original droid, it was a magnet in the dock that tripped a sensor in the phone...
Yes, for some of the older droids, a magnet did trigger car mode. However, I don't believe this is the case for newer droids.
If anyone has any idea, please let me know. Thank you.

Adapter for iPod Dock

Hello,
I have recently got speakers that have an iPod dock. However I would like to be able to plug-in my S4 to play music. I think what I need is a micro usb to 30-pin adapter. But I am not sure, I would like to be sure before I buy one. I would also like to know if my speakers be able to play the music on the device with that adapter, or will it just charge? Also will the remote be able to control the music playing? Please let me know.
Thank you very much.
The only possibility you have is to buy a Bluetooth adapter for the 30-pin connector and pair your droid with it..
