Bump,

I'm currently looking for a dock that also has HDMI out, so thought I'd bump this thread... Has anyone found one ?

I was about to order the original Samsung MHL > HDMI adapter from Amazon, but I'll hold off on the order as what I really want is a dock that has it build it..

Thanks and sorry if this has been answered already ( I have been searching t'internet for a few hours for an answer.. )

Cheers

i ordered one from nicecans last night, its £17.99 delivered and seems Kidigi branded and looks the same one from OP first link. says stock from 11th Oct so will see if it actually comes through.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Dmonty:
Thanks Zulm,

I'd be interested if you can post a quick review when you get it, hopefully you'll have it in a day or 2.

I've just had a look on their site and it does look very nice and if it works for you, then I'll get the same one.

Cheers

[Galaxy S II Accessories] zulm:
Got a "Despatched" email on Monday but still nothing in the post, stills says no stock on nice can website. Give it a day or two more before I chase it.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] zulm:
Well well wonders never cease, it turns up today!

..it works! Come with a USB and power adapter but this doesn't have to be used I connected it to my Dell monitor via a standard USB cable that came with the S2. My Dell has no sound out so could not test that and it is only 1680x1050 native res but HMDI did work. I will test on my Sony TV later on and see how that goes.

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

Few annoying things I've found already

- when connected via HMDI to a non-native 1080p display it seems to constantly try to sync with the display with the picture disappearing for a few second then reappearing. It doesn't seem to stabilize even after leaving it for a while. This happens on my Dell monitor and my Sony HDTV (D4000) when connected via HDMI both are non-1080p devices. On my other Samsung 1080p TV the TV-out picture is solid and stable and doesn't have these sync issues. I guess this is probably the case for all MHL cables out there and not necessarily a problem with this dock but problem with firmware/software? Is there TV out configuration tool that can be used to sort these HMDI sync issues?

- the USB on the dock is for charge only - it doesn't get recognized on your PC when connected by USB.

Kidigi HDMI dock

Is it really so, that it can't be used to sync phone with PC? :confused:

The PC doesn't recognize it at all, or is there driver missing?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Accessories] madmackem:
Been after a dock for a while hope this is as good as it sounds :-) ordered from nicecans
[Galaxy S II Accessories] zulm:
The PC doesn't recognize it all, on the back of the dock it says "DC in 5V" - so I assume the USB is used to power the dock only.

---------- Post added at 11:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

BTW details on this dock is on the kidigi website now;

http://www.kidigi.com/product_lv2.php?pid=1336

Although the kidigi websites says the model number is: LCM-SD71 the label on the bottom of the dock I got has different model number: MH-Si91

Mi kidigi doesn't works

Hi,

I bought a new one some days ago, and I'm having the same issues.

I connect the phone to an Onky TX-SR605 and the Onkyo to the TV (Sony Bravia KDL-40Vxxxx). It doesn't works for more than 30 secs.

Finally, did you find any solution for this problem? Are you using the Kidigi cradle or did you returned it?

Thanks!

Regards.

I tried it on two different TV's and one PC monitor.

Regards!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Luken10:
It's a shame these docks aren't coming out as everyone has hoped. I know this probably makes zero difference, but has anyone tried using the micro-usb cable that came with the phone to be able to sync with the phone in the dock? I have no clue if it makes a difference, but it seems that some of their other docks come with two separate cables.

Also for the HDMI on/off problems, is that only on slightly "random" pc monitor resolutions? So would 720p work? Or is it everything that isn't 1080p?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] rad3d:
I ordered the HDMI out desktop dock (Kidigi) from mobilefun.

Had issues running games on my led TV. Intermittent noise/no picture.

Changed the kernel to speedmod s2-18 and problems went away.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] redzion:
This is the same as normal MHL to HDMI adapter.. same stuf, different package. And all MHL cable need power source, same as this wana be dock station.. becouse of that PC do not recognize SGS2, becouse it is used only for power up MHL. So, better to buy real Samsung MHL to HDMI cable, becouse it don't have any problems on non-1080p resolutions..

sorry, but someone must writte this to you..

Hey

Just seeing if anyone having problems with Gtalk and Make It So.

For some reason I cant get Gtalk to sign in. It tries to sign in but just cant. Also Make it So just doesn't work for some reason, does it work for anyone? Its not needed, but thought it would be cool.

Apart from these issues, love the pad but wish it had HDMI out and Java though.

Done all the patches and mods and seems to work really well :D

Thanks in advance

I did a lot more reading on it and it appears to be a problem with certain routers. This is most likely a bug on behalf of HP/Palm. Turns out Draytek/Netgear routers don't agree with Gtalk on the device. Colour me confused.

that is definitely odd.

This application is under development at the moment and needs a few testers.

at the moment this is a mac only piece of software, but hopefully soon we (RaYmAn, myself and a few others) will have a linux/windows version.

usage is simple, "tar xvf sbkdetect.tar; ./sbkDetect" while your device is attached in APX mode. it should take a few seconds to run, paste the result back in this thread along with the first few digits of your serial number (eg: B5OKAS...)

detection may not be 100% at the moment, as I lack a new SBK device myself to test against. but SHOULD work.

Thanks to RaYmAn for discovering how to detect the difference between the two devices.

Hey Guys,

Got my hands on the BodyGuardz Carbon Fiber armor skins for the Galaxy S2, these are thin decals which apply onto your device very easily (and once removed, leave no residue). They come in 3 color variations and provide some unique looks to your device. Overall, I'm very pleased - full review below:

[Galaxy S II Accessories] pbrown77:
Nice review. My only minor concern from looking at your video is that that there is exposed phone on the a number of corners/edges and this is where i find phones get scuff marks a fair amount. With the precision cutting they have obviously done, I am wondering why they didn't make the pieces come together a little closer. And also why the side pieces didn't wrap around to the front as the split in the case is only opened when pulling the phone apart for repair so the film can wrap around the whole side for day to day use.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Ploone:
Thanks so much, it means a lot that people watch what I have to offer.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Ploone:
I was quite unsure why they did not cover the whole side, my only guess is that the small channel that separates front/back could have caused a little bubbling as it would be a large air gap.

In the end, perhaps they made the film smaller in order to be easier to install, I know a lot of people out there that are terrible at installing screenshield and other films - I did an ok job since I am used to it, most are not.

Thanks for the comment though, I am always up for discussion!

Hello, How are we going? Well, here I bring the R8 (cm), then remove the "leak" like the r8 cm. It has greatly improved the level of battery, wifi, bluetooth, gps and data. As you can see I'm using the data2ext, which now will have the maximum memory and speed of ZTE, to 1750 points Aututum to 600Mhz. The rom is patched libsqlite (faster reading and writing), some libs to improve battery consumption. (Required ext3 partition of 1GB or 1.5 GB for user data). The faster the SD, the system faster anger. Added tweaks to increase system speed, SD, battery consumption, CPU and ram control.

INSTALLED SOFTWARE:

​

- Android 2.3.5

- Market 3.1.3

- Adao Task Manager

- File Manager (Updated)

- Launcher (Ported)

- Youtube (Updated)

- Maps (Updated)

- QuickOffice (Ported HTC Desire)

- Radio FM

- Copia Total (Ported Huawei)

- Cache Cleaner

- K-9 Mail (Updated)

- Fancy Widget (Free)

- Translator

- Navigation

- Wallpapers

- Google Music (Updated)

- Ringtones (Various Devices)

​

Screen Captures:
​

​

​

1º I always use it for WhatsApp 2G networks, mail, etc. spare me (and I polish the data rate in 2 days) which I do not care.

- Settings - Wireless - Mobile networks - (activated) Use only 2G networks.

2º Always sync manually Market, E-mail or contact (WhatsApp, messenger, etc does not care, are always active).

- Sync settings and accounts - (Off) Reference Data.

3° Off (default is active) GPS in the taskbar. (Where is the Bluetooth and Wifi.) Will make sure that security settings and location is only active Use wireless networks.

4º Inactive animations and screen brightness of the automatic.

5º I have the normal speed processor and 122Mhz minimum.

6º I use the Calibrator's Battery Market (following instructions) and the battery to 100%.

7° With these steps, I increase the battery life.

Note: When you first boot will take some 3 to 5 minutes. When you leave the Android "setup process" will slow the system a bit, it is normal is completing the installation of the menu system. After that now you can work properly.

----- Installation. -----​

​

We started the ClockworkMod, we Wipe data / factory reset, Wipe cache, then we enter an advanced Dalvik Wipe Cache and the battery is 100% Battery Status do a Wipe if we do not proceed to make ext3 partition. Advanced, partition SD Card, 1GB and select Swap 0MB (Remember that after partition the SD to copy the rom on the FAT), after doing all that, select the rom to install and expect to complete the process. Once finished the installation process, restart the phone and wait for it to boot the system.​

Can you tell us, please, what is that INSTALLER.zip about? I'm curious.
[Blade Android Development] f_padia:
if you look inside you will see its just a build.prop file. I guess the one in the ROM was incorrect or not put in.
[Blade Android Development] f_padia:
First impressions of this ROM are that its pretty amazing :D Feels smoother and faster to me than CM7. LG Home is pretty smooth and nice too.

Quadrant benchmark is much higher than CM7 I think (1470 @ 600MHz on this. I cant actually remember what it was on CM7 but im sure it wasnt that high)

Also T-mobile Themechooser works on this ROM :D even though its not included so if you dont like default it can easily be changed... thanks for the effort elitemovil, but the colourful theme isnt to my personal taste
[Blade Android Development] elitemovil:
For fix lang's. By default is spanish.

Thanks.!
[Blade Android Development] Carlos_Manuel:
If you use CM 7.0.3 then quadrant is something 890? and if stagefright is enabled then 978p or something like that!

with newest Nightly you get something 1030-1300 P
