[Q] Nexus 5 Included OEM USB Cable - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I was wondering if someone can post a few pictures of the USB cable that was included with your nexus 5. Reason I am asking is because I need to return the device for warranty since it was defective and they require all original accessories. I think I have the original usb cables but I have like 7 different micro usb cables, so I need to make sure which one is which. If you can send me pics of both sides of the male and female ends of the cable and a general image of what the cable looks like. Also, if you can measure the cable for me and tell me how long it is that would be great. Thank you in advance, I realize it takes time to do this but it would help me a lot!

[EDIT] HDMI out 8 pounds, ok? - It does not work, forget it

I found this cable in deal extreme for HDMI. There is a comment saying that it works in evo 4g, so it should work in our Sensation, right? Any one has bought this article? It is pretty cheap, I am just not sure because I cant find any reference to "MHL" in the specifications

Don't buy it, it won't work, I did this mistake the day I got my Sensation....before reading a little more about its HDMI out function.
i got mine i bought for my evo. lemme see if it works
*edit* different size man no dice, wouldn't even fit
Thank you, you saved me 8 bucks, I was about to buy it.

no problem man. lemme kno if u find one for the sensation at a good price id like to pick one up too
For the Sensation it's not "just a cable", the cable includes an "MHL module" (kind of a plastic small box) in which HDMI cable is plugged
Like this one, for example:

A bit late to the party..
Would this one work? Both phones have micro USB.

Quite impressed. Using a cheap generic mHDMI to VGA adaptor, works like a charm...

Could you share a link to the one you bought or tell me where you got it?
EBay or amazon - any standard micro HDMI to VGA adapter will work. Or a mHDMI to full size HDMI if your tv or monitor has one.
Fun fact - the official mHDMI spec requires a flat surface where it plugs in. It's angled on the Surface so they can't officially call it one...!

Ha! I was wondering why they said it wasn't actually a compatible uHDMI. That's silly...
Not entirely sure that this topic was worth its own thread - people have already shown it elsewhere on the forum - but your "fun fact" is both amusing and informative, as I had held off buying a microHDMI adapter until I knew why they said it wasn't a standard one despite appearing the same.

Looking for a dock with reverse micro usb for N9

Hi all,
I'm looking for a dock for my Nexus 9. Ideally, I want something that will not make it top heavy, that by giving it a little tap on top will make it fall. I also would like a integrated reversible charger so I can put my Nexus 9 on the dock facing me. I would settle for just a dock with no USB but enough space between the port and bottom so I can fit the USB cable without it bent bent 90 degrees. I looked around the forum and saw only 1 thread about docks, and all of them were not good enough, either because they had an attached USB cable that had the port facing the wrong way, or they were luxury docks made out of aircraft grade aluminum and no space for USB cable.
I'm sure somebody has looked for this, if you know any products that fit my need, please post links.
Right now i'm using this metal this i've had for years, it works but there is not enough space for my cable

Something like this would be perfect if it were just a little bit wider. It seems to me like the center of gravity would be quite high and the tablet might fall over

Looking to buy an OTG cable - Does brand matter?

I've been looking around Amazon for an OTG cable and there are the usual Chinese made ones which are really cheap and the so-called branded ones which go for a big more.
My main reason is because I want to use my DS4 with my Z5 as the bluetooth connection has too much input lag to enjoy the emulated games I want to play.
Nope. Just get one of eBay for like 99p (uk price for me) they're only a cable that adapts one type of plug to another
Also... Quite a few brands make dual usb sticks now. Which are a great option also. I have this -

Doesn't matter... I'm using a OnePlus OTG adapter and it works great

There is a video online talking about exactly that (discussing Digital Camera controlling and OTG cables), this dude tried a number of cables until he found one that worked properly.
I purchased a cheap ebay one and it doesn't clip into the port cleanly, I am now using the one that came with my Xperia Z3

Nexus 6p Docking Station

I'm posting this thread to get some advice or direction as to which Docking stations would be fully compatible with the nexus 6p. I know when buying cables we have to be careful cause a lot of the cheaper ones tend to ruin our devices. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks!!

I'm very curious about this too
Beson Leung (a Google engineer that's checking/reviewing Type C accessories) has an Amazon list of everything that he approves of: http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/KF89JCHI0KT4/
There's only one dock on the list so far: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B017K46T1M/
He also reviewed another dock but it didn't make the cut.
I bought this dock : Sarvi Dock
This particular dock allows you to use the charger that came with the 6p. I love it. No issues whatsoever.

There is an extensive thread about this already, including the dock shown above (I ordered 2, got one, it was missing parts/instructions and was obviously used, and it took a month to get a refund).
Should check out the other threads on this.
