[Completed] [Q] Q. Help my Diy mhl - XDA Assist

First, i can`t englisg well. I`m korean. Excuse my english
I find help in korean but i can`t
they are maybe offline. Online user couldn`t help me
So i ask for you.
If i find good answer in this site, I will visit more to learn and thanks you very much.
I search about mhl cable. Ofcourse, i can just buy it.
But i like to learn about something and making self if i can
I continue to googling but that is just simple example
My needs is that can i make self mhl cable?
I stuied so little about programming and electronic circuit
But i think mhl cable don`t need adopter or controller
Why i think that? Most of mhl cable have just each body.
Find picture. Except 11pin(samsung phone), they just have
3jack(?). One is hdmi, other are charge slot and mhl(5pin)
So i think if i can find how connect each pin(5pin-hdmi)
I can make mhl cable by just cutting and reconnect
(I have already 5pin cable and hdmi cable. But need is mhl)
So i ask for you that can i make it myself? Just cut and past?
If i can, please explain about which line must connect some line.
Ex) 1-------2
2-------5 hdmi jack ( maybe 21pin??)
5pin 3-------7
4------- +
5------- - charge part
If still not understand, i will upload picture
I doubt my question transfer to you as my english.

[Q] ROOTING without USB ???

Not sure if I have a bad SGS4G usb port or just cable issues - I have read a number of posts that folks have gone through three or four cables before finding one this handset likes. it definitely does not like anything at the moment.
I'm just mainly trying to get rooted for use of Titanium. Is there a way to do without tethering to a PC? I can pull the sd and put whatever I need on there or use WIFI which is working swell.
thx for advice

You might be able to use z4root to root the phone. But other than that, you will need USB. As far as cables go, the stock cable works fine for me. If it's your USB port that is the issue, you can get that repaired by a third party, but if you're not rooted yet, you might as well send it in to Samsung if you're still under warranty.
will this work?
any idea if these steps work on SGS4G?

or, if I can get Z4root to 'root' the handset, is that all I need to get Titanium going? does Z4root include busybox?

Try that.
This has been asked before and the short answer is no. No usb equals no root with this device. By all means try these other suggestions and if you are successful please let us know.
thank you hech! I so appreciate the short and definitive answer.

Adam outler "save some bricks"

I was looking into trying to make the uart reader that adamoutler made on this forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1018862&highlight=adamoutler+uart
I wasn't really sure if he would reply seeing that im sure he gets tons of emails from people on these forums.My question is, are there schematics for how to build that uart reader on here?Has anyone else made something similar that they would like to share?Thanks

Another thing...Is it possible to dump the contents of a movinand flash through this if a phone is in bootloader mode?

I have a usb-uart with buspirate guide I've been working on for a little while.
I will post it soon. I was hoping to take a few more pictures... but I'll just have to add them later.
What phone/device do you have? That will help answer the movinand question.
This should have been asked in a Q&A forum.
It is the microsoft kin twom.I'm hoping one of these devices will be able to pull off some info as far as the bootloader and or system files.The phone is very locked down and running out of ideas for how to get into it.Can a mod move this too the right forum?Let me know when you get your project up,cause i definitley want to check it out.

I get that irritable sensation that you're being lazy, as it seem you haven't bothered to search the forum at all. Answers to all your questions can be answered by searching... Here is your phone specs. Although they don't mention what Tegra processor you have...
Here is your Google search string:
Code:
[URL="https://encrypted.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&safe=off&q=UART+site%3Aforum.xda-developers.com&oq=UART+site%3Aforum.xda-developers.com&gs_l=serp.3...69372.77789.0.78005.14.14.0.0.0.1.141.1164.13j1.14.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.SIkcCldMwac"]UART site:forum.xda-developers.com[/URL]
And YES this is QA post.
And YES you should change the title of your post!
(Or you gonna piss-off a whole bunch of people looking for "unbrickable" mod...)
Wow...Lazy? Really? lol.Believe me,i have been searching/reading the xda forums for awhile relating to usb to serial/nvflash/movinand chips/uart/bus pirate and everything that has to do with it.I know the complete specs of the phone and as far as which model tegra processor,it doesnt matter at the moment.The things i asked are that what couldnt be found from the hours i searched on xda developers and google by itself.Believe me i have searched.A random search link on xda about uart doesnt tell me much more than what i already know.
I asked if there were schematic for adam outler's design since it seems to work better than the others i have seen on here and other forums.I cant ask him directly since im sure he has a life too instead of going through tons of messages.The other things i asked couldnt be found on here or from a google search....so i thought this would be the place to ask.bhundven seems like the one that will help me out though.
Well you know best. But I always recommend the much easier to use FTDI USB serial cables/modules. However, the BusPirate is more versatile as it supports many more protocols and even JTAG to an extremely limited extent.
You need to figure out what voltage levels you need for that device. Usually with serial over USB, you need 3.3V, while for direct on-PCB UARTs you probably need 1.8V. But since you have your Tegra proc specs, that is no problem right?

OTG & boot from external micro usb

Dear XDA,
I am a new user, so if this post is in the wrong place, sorry.
I am planning to make a custom case for my ville. My plan is to mod a very small usb hub into it. So i can plug in usb cables and stuff. Also i wanna buy a very fast mirco sd card. The hub wil be inserted in the mirco usb port. I wanted to ask if it is possible to boot from such an external micro sd card, outside the one s. If it is possible do i need to root it? Has anyone tried something failiar before? And am i able to charge my phone through the usb hub?
Tanks in advance,
pro-one1000.
I'd say that this is more suited to development or accessories, but I'm sure a moderator won't mind.
Android is based on Linux, so there is no reason why it can''t be possible. It would probably be quite difficult, but definitely do-able.

I do no work with programming (I'm taking a crash course in computing in the summer to get a bit of help) so I am probably one of the last people that you should ask to be honest mate. If you repost this (not that a senior member would ever recommend that...) on General or Android Development then you may get a bit more attention from people who know what you are doing.

[Completed] Nexus 5 with a USB 3.0 monitor?

Forgive me if the question is outright silly...
I am looking for a portable FullHD monitor to use with my Nexus 5. While I do have and use Slimport->HDMI dongle, most portable monitors now provide only USB 3.0 (DisplayLink) interface. Hence the question: is there any chance the two could work together? I realize that Nexus would not be able to provide the power needed, so I would require something in between, like a dock or a powered USB hub, but could it possibly work? Slimport seems to be related to DisplayLink, yet I have not seen any Slimport->DisplayPort adapters.

[Completed] U-TAB7 from Union Suppy: Tablet supplied to people in prison

So one of my friends has a tablet that he got in prison and he was telling me that it has WiFI but its just disabled. I started telling him about the things I've done with android devices and told him I could take a look at it for him and see if I could maybe get a custom ROM on it or something. But man this thing sure seems locked down. Only has one physical button on it which is the power button so I havent even figured out if I can get it into the recovery. The only ports on it is a headphone jack, media output port (mini hdmi?), mini usb, and a DC power port. I mean just from looking at it I dont think there is much you can do but he did tell me that later iPads, the same ones, were given WiFi access. Besides that he told me people were getting in trouble because they were able to get porn on their tablets. So what Im wondering is there anything I can do to even attempt to get in this thing? Any way to get into recovery? Any tools for the PC I can use to get in? I was reading online and saw one person make a post, basically the same question I have, and one guy commented if he could get a ROM dump he could try playing around with that. Not even sure what a ROM dump is but is there a way to do that? Idk I've search all over the web and cant find any info. Maybe if I could find out if this tablet is the same hardware wise as another maybe that would be a good starting point? Idk what do you guys think?
