Projector for I9000

Hello guys,
I have been searching but couldn't find anything, do you know if there is any way I could connect my Galaxy S to a projector? Like a dock in which you put the phone and it has a projector?
Or any other means of connecting a projector to the galaxy s?
Thanks in advance!

Just buy a tv-out cable and connect it to your projector using RCA.

maybe this can help

I bought this one some time ago for my 5800 but works ok with my I9000. You can use it with stock ROM but I've managed to make it work in CM9 too (with the help of the "Galaxy S Settings" app).

XDA rules state you need to wait a minimum of 24 hours before bumping your own thread.
However, I remember reading something a few days ago about some MHL adapters (knock-offs) not working with the S4. So the only thing I might suggest is making sure you have an "official" HML adapter from Samsung that is made for your exact model of phone. Do you?
The thread i read was either in this sub - forum or in the App sub forum. Good luck.
**EDIT**
Here is the thread:

If you do a search in this sub forum you will find threads with more info as well.

Nexus 5 USB OTG

Hi guys, I will buy new smartphone, Stuck Between Xperia ZL and Google Nexus 5
Anyway, LG tells that Nexus 5 Have USB OTG, and if you Googled: Nexus 5 USB OTG, you will get apps to run USB OTG On Nexus 5
What does that mean?
should i have an App to use OTG? doesn't it work out of the box? i'm won't root
I Might Use Joysticks, Mouse, Keyboard, Ext HDD,etc. so i want everything to be supported
I've also heared about Nexus 5 Unmount Devices Due to High Power Usage even if the usage is low?

No you can use usb otg out of the box with nexus media importer its an paid app or root it to get full functionality.
Since u don't wannt to root better go with xperia zl.
Xperia zl supports it out of the box, u won't need any app on it
Now its your call.

I Can always get APK's For Paid apps for free, we all know this :laugh:
That's OK But what About Other things like joysticks, mouse, keyboard, etc. Will They Work too? i thought the app was only for Flash Drives!?
Plus, Beside the OTG Thing, Which one do you advice me, I'm not a ROM Developer or those who Install Other ROM's, But i might Use some emulation things or try to Install WinXP as an Example
i Also Might root To use Terminal for Specific Purposes... "Might"...

If you don't want to buy the app I recommend use total commander + USB plugin its free one

Warez are not to be discussed here, it's against forum rules. We know it's available, but we don't talk about it

I have also tried a wireless mouse and keyboard which work fine.
Game controllers are touch and go.
Ones that use the standard hid drivers should be fine but anything else (Xbox controllers etc...) Will not work as they need modules that haven't been built for the n5 yet.
External storage requires 3rd party apps to Mount

Just root/unlock your phone. You get a Nexus phone and you don't play with it? surely you will eventually. And then , you can do anything to you phone

[Q] [A Silly Question] Can we connect other phone to our OTG suppported smartphones?

Hey guy,
I am haing a Samsung galaxy tab 2 P3100 and it perfectly supports OTG, I can use Pendrives, Mouse and keyboard with no problem.
Well, it is bit hilarious but last night I was wondering if I could connect another phone via USB with my tab using the OTG Cable and access the files in other phone like a pendrive or something.
I can try it by myself but afraid that it may explode, so I need your advice, if someone has tried it.
Sorry if its a silly question, but as an android user I find it worth to ask.
And I can try it by myself, if you assure that doing this is safe
Thanks thanks :angel:

i tried this myself, just to see if it would work, on a samsung galaxy s3 which has total otg support, and a Chinese tablet also with total support, and the results are interesting:
each device shows "connected to pc, press to enable usb storage" i press, nothing happens on either device. i even went into es file explorer, which find everything i connect, but it shows nothing connected.
Nothing exploded though.

LoL, I was wonder that though

[Q] Miracast dongle.

Anyboddy using it? Is there any lag in displaying content on tv?

I'm using Chromecast, it works flawlessly.
And it's cheap.
S5 + chromecast = great combo

Make sure you not connecting to any router at the same time because when miracast connects it also connects to the nearest wifi hotspot you have saved and that will cause serious lag and picture breakup on hd videos.

Yeah, i would HIGHLY suggest not doing MIracast. I tried for +1 years trying to get it to work. BLUF: if you have a rooted device, good luck. I don't see the benefit of Miracast now that Chromecast supports screen mirroring (which works flawlessly). IMO.

Is there anything special you had to do to make your S5 work with the Chromecast? I can't get the mirror option (or whatever it says) to show up in my Chromecast app. I have an S5 Active.

No, mine worked right out of the box which was surprising since I have a custom ROM and kernel.

At least I know now it's possible. Maybe I can trick Google into thinking I have an S5. Thanks for getting back to me so fast.
