im on my second dock and still wont work :/

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009QW3TBK/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1394685157&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40 I ordered this awhile back yo try and make it my comp but the first dock didnt work. The tv screen will flicker on and off. Sometimes the tv screen would stay black and I would have to unplug and plug it back in so it can show an image. I exchanged it for a new one and the same thing still occurs. If i order the samsung dock(the link above) would that work better?

Also would a different rom have a different outcome? Im on smooth note 2/3 rom and wondering if I use synergys rom if the image would work better..

Thanks again
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
My dad bought a new TV yesterday. It's not even a Samsung, but this dock is working fine with it. I've been using stock rom.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] coolwater22:
Can you send me a link to the stock rom so I van see if thats the issue or my phone thats causing the problem.

thank you for your help...:)

bluetooth mouse and keeyboard

This is somewhat off topic but I was wondering instead of getting the dock will I be able to get a bluetooth mouse and keyboard to work? I have an mhl adapter that works better than the dock(returned two of them).

Thanks guys
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
I realized one big issue today with my dad's TV.

HDMI disconnects cellular network :eek: Antenna shows full but no internet, no cellular :eek:

Anyone else is having this problem?

Edit: I tried an old MHL adapter I bough for S2, result is the same. so it's not this dock related. Still investigating...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] coolwater22:
Yes that happens to me to with the mhl adapter I purchased. It doesnt disconnect but I get less bars. When I ordered this dock I didnt lose reception but my image would dissapear. Then I exchanged it for a new one and this time I would get the roaming signal which was weird. Once I yook it out the dock I got the roaming signal off.

so would a bluetooth mouse and keyboard work with this at the same time?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
Most likely, but it's useless for me having BT keyboard and mouse working while I don't have cellular internet.

I tried 2 different TVs but I got the same result.

I have a HDMI>DVI converter. I connected it to a PC monitor using that HDMI>DVI converter, it worked and phone signal was OK

I want to be sure about what caused it to work. Is it PC monitor or HDMI>DVI converter?

If it is HDMI>DVI converter, a stupid workaround like

Dock > HDMI > (HDMI>DVI converter) > (DVI>HDMI converter) > TV

might work.

Could you test your dock with a hdmi featured PC monitor?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] coolwater22:
Well I dont have a pc monitor :/. I dont even have a laptop because mine wont turn on anymore. Thats why I want this dock to work for me but its not working :(..
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
I don't think it's this mhl adapter related. I have two different MHL adapters, both give the same error.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] coolwater22:
Have you tried a different tv?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
Yes I did.

Two different TVs, two different mhl adapters, chargers, combinations etc. Result was always the same.

A Samsung PC monitor with HDMI>DVI adapter work well.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] coolwater22:
Yeah idk then.:/
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
@coolwater22

Today I tried it with a Samsung TV, it worked :eek:

No signal drop out or connection loose.

The two LCD TVs I tested turned out to be manufactured by the same company with different brand names :S
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] coolwater22:
Glad u were able to figure out the problem....mhhmm now I need to get a samsung tv lmao...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
The final conclusion is that, the problem has always been my carrier's (Avea) weak signal.

I tried this dock with a different carrier (Turkcell) which has very strong signal in my house, it worked.

No signal loose whatsoever, dock worked fine.

Lag

Anybody use this with 4.3? How bad is the lag? Is it all the time?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] coolwater22:
When I used it there was a lag especially if u had a keyboard or mouse connected to the dock. It was about a sec lag. Not really that noticible
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] man_sate:
Hai..i'm newbie in technology and want to learn it...I already bought china dock..I have been using around 4 days...it's superb...it works with mouse, 2 external hardisk and other usb..but need to plug powered usb hub to be able use that all...I'm very satisfied...

I also try connect to my LG led tv 24"using HDMI...the problem that I has been through is screen always lag and always refresh (disconnect/connect)..I also plug in cable to dock with samsung plug and shorter cable which is around 15cm...also face the same problem...

The solution that I have been to see is turn off mobile data or using wifi..and it perfectly working...smooth in playing video, games, music, open my assignment, surfing and others...but the problem now is the line...if the mobile data is turn on it will start to refresh like I said and it so annoying...it will be ok around 15minutes and start the problem again...and I can see that my line from H+ will start decrease until it achieve Edge, at the Edge it will become full it also face same problem...screen always refresh...

My note 2 is stock and has been update to 4.3

That is my review...if anyone have solution please tell me...thank you..
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
Do you have weak phone signal at the place where you're using your dock?

Are you able to make a phone call when you get the full signal strength on Edge?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] man_sate:
Thanks for reply..my phone signal always H+ if not dock...at the same place...

I don't try to call..because it always keep refreshing the tv skrin...if I try to open music...it will start to refresh non stop until the music stop by it self...then it will be much less refresh...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
H+ is not your signal strength, it's your network type. Nevermind

Go to Settings>More>About Device>Status> Signal Strength ?

What does "Signal Strength" say? A screenshot is better
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] man_sate:
Thanks for helping...I have attached 2 pic with and without dock...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] bahtsiz_bedevi:
Umm your problem is something different than mine, same symptoms but different.

My device was losing phone signal completely. Then it was becoming full again, like yours.

Then I realized that I wasn't able to make calls too. Because my phone was getting registered on another network (roaming)

I tried another carrier's SIM card which has strong signal at my home, it worked fine.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] man_sate:
Tq ottom@n for your help...I will try to change other carrier sim like u have done...I have order hdmi male to hdmi female powered adapter around $5.00 and see the result...but 1st, I will try your solution...I will update..thanks in advance...

HD-001 MHL OTG HDMI dock

Hi guys,

Sorry, I'm new here, this is my first post here.

Some days ago, I've ordered a dock from DX, speacially, this one: dx item: 250700

They've sent one HDMI and one micro USB cable with it.

I've tried to connect it to my UE40F6400 TV, once or twice, I saw the image on the screen, but it seems like, it was enough for it.

I've connected my KVM switch, to it's one USB port, it works perfectly with my wireless USB keyboard-mouse, but I miss the image.

One small problem, that I have a flip cover, and the device tears left, so, I had to put a small folded paper under my phone's left bottom, now, it connects, and charging my phone, but there's no image.

What am I doing wrong?

My device is rooted, triangle-away-ed, unlocked...

UPDATE:

I switched in triangle away, when my phone was on the dock, i rebooted, and now it works :) only on 1080p 30, but it works perfect!

Have a nice day

Regards:

Peter

black screen

I've bought a $20 dock from ebay (I'm new and can't post the link but it's like the other ones).

I tested all features and everything was ok. OTG, HDMI, flashdrive, mouse, keyboard. After some minutes of use in my TV, when I play some video in VLC, a black screen with a little color point in the center appear. I tried a lot of changes and combinations (change cable, port, tv, power source, disconnect keyboard, flashdrive, reboot, disconnect and reconnect everything) but it still not working. I suppose that the hdmi output port is damaged now.

All features are working, including hdmi audio, the phone recognize the dock and the TV recognize that there are a signal coming from dock, but the black screen with a color point in the center remains, no image at all. I could see that color point change color when I'm changing screens on the phone. Seems the signal sent have all pictures black except for one.

I finally could see the image restarting the cellphone pluged in the dock. Now the image desapear sometimes (each 30 minutes of use) and return after some seconds.

Some one have a external powered hdmi cable to test it? I think the problem is that it don't have power enoght to all this features (usb, keybord, flashdrive and hdmi).

Thanks

It works most of the time....

What are popular wireless keyboards for this model?

Since I use an otterbox I am in need of a short male to female 11 pin to connect to the adapter.... Any recommendations?

Marciniak...I also occur the same thing..try turn off your mobile data..maybe it will solve it..mine need to turn off mobile data...only can use wifi...if use mobile data..screen will always flickers..

Update: I didn't get the powered hdmi adapter.. I buy hdmi switcher and put external power..it didn't solve the issue..

lag

Thank you,

Now it's not flickering so often. I research for solutions and found this:

1) Turning off mobile data

2) A powerful usb source (I put a 2.5A one)

3) A short hdmi cable ( I put a 1m cable, I'll try a 0,5m)

Seems to be solved the flickering problem.

Another problems remain: sometimes the image freeze in fullHD movies (I need to restart app). Movies has lag. I think it's a limitation of the device and there is no solution for this. If someone has a solution, please let me know.

need better video like Motorola ATRIX doc

I agree with all the comments regarding the various smart docs that are available for Samsung Notes and Galaxies.

However:

No one has touched on the fact that what is displayed on a large monitor is noting but a tiny sliver of video.

What I am looking for is an interface much the the Motorola ATRIX doc which actually gave you an interface you can use.

Is there anything like this for Samsung devices ala the Smart doc. If so please post.

MANY Thanks :confused:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Da_Harrow:
Hey I'm pretty much a noob to Android.

When I first got my phone I rooted and installed cyanogenmod with pretty much no problems. Well that was a while ago and I was getting bored of the rom I had, I decided to change my rom to MIUI. Well the rom works fine superuser was still installed, so I tried running busybox and then got the message that Superuser denied busybox. I usually get the option to choose if I want to allow or deny an app with root access, but not this time. So basically I've been looking through google and some of the replies said I needed to reroot... Which I have no idea how to because I already have it "rooted".

I'm just confused because I got a root check app and it says im not rooted, The I got rootkeeper and the status said I was rooted and superuser is installed.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Cooptx:
Miui is an overprotected ROM IMO. You have to go into various security apps to enable root access
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] itzik2sh:
Miui is already rooted. Superuser is not needed. LBE replaces it and handles all root access. delete superuser and let LBE do its thing.

Thanks a lot, I opened LBE Guard and allowed myself root access. So simple but lesson learned.

however, i believe teh volume is tied in to the kernel.

Hi all,

I just bought the nexus 4 two days before, there are serval problems encounter when i restore my whatsapp hisory:crying:

I followed the steps below to restore whatsapp chats:

1) on my old phone, I transfer the /sdcard/WhatsApp/ whole folder to the nexus4 main folder

2) Install the updatest whatsapp on nexus 4 and register and then it said there is a backup file founded, asked if I would like to restore it.

3) I clicked restore, so whatsapp processes.... for around 1-2 minutes, whatsapp quits itself, prompts "Unfortunately, whatsapp has stopped"

The whatsapp version on both my nexus 1 and nexus 4 are the same and updatest.

So how can I restore my chat history? Many Thanks!

Remark:

Nexus 4 4.3 Stock rom & Kernel ; rooted Whatsapp version 2.11.85
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caaznkid:
I would just try and use titanium backup then and transfer it over to the nexus 4. Hope it works out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mihahn:
Could you try to backup your data of whatsapp on your old phone again (Whatsapp -> settings -> chat settings -> backup conversation). Transfer it again to your N4 and wipe the data of whatsapp on your N4. Open a file manager and delete the /sdcard/WhatsApp/ folder on your N4 :)

Open whatsapp, log in and and try restoring the backup ;)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mihahn:
Try an older version of whatsapp then. So download an older apk and try restoring the backup and install the update then. Maybe it's a bug in the latest version of whatsapp? :)

I have tried this method before but the WhatsApp forced me to install the updatest version before restoring:(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] effy@effy.com:
simple

create a new directory on your N4, call it TEMP, copy into it the entire whatsapp folder from the old phone

now go onto your N4 use ezfiler, find the whatsapp folder and move into it the databases profile pictures and media folders

not detach from the pc

start whatsapp on your android and it will restore the message and all work

enjoy

Hello,

I have the exact same problem! I want to copy my chat history from my Samsung Galaxy S1 (2.3.6) to my new Nexus 5 (4.4.2).

When looking in my System Log file it says that it has something to do with SQLite. These are some lines in the Log file concerning Whatsapp:

"E/DefaultDatabaseErrorHandler (3784): Corruption reported by sqlite on database: /data/data/com.whatsapp/databasesmsgstore.db"

"E/AndroidRuntime (3784): java.lang.AssertionError: android.database.sqlite.SQLiteDatabaseCorruptException: Database disk image is malformed (code 11), SQLiteConnection.java,-2"

"E/SQLiteDatabaseException: unknown error (code 14): Could not open database"

Can someone tell me how to fix this problem or how to find the error in my database file?

Is there any means to disable lte automatically when screen off? It seems that no tasker can do the job, right?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Destroyedbeauty:
Why just no change mobile data type to WCDMA (3G) / GSM (2G)?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmiswm:
the reason is, when I switch on the screen, I may have times to wish to use the browser or to download something, so I will activate the lte manually. But then, as I switch off the screen, probably I would have finished my job, and wish to switch off lte to save power during standby. At the moment, without any tasker as far as I know which can do the job, I will have to remember to switch off the lte every time after switching it on. This is unnecessarily annoying. If there is any automatic means to do this, I can have peace of mind, just screen off and the job will be done.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymister:
Try juicedefender
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soldiers33:
you cant turn off lte and turn it back no when ever screen is off. Your phone will waste more battery by constantly switching to different bands. The best thing to use is the built in battery saver which switches data off and other things that aint required.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmiswm:
the idea is just to turn lte off when the screen goes off, not to turn lte on when the screen is on. This means, I will manually switch lte on if I need it, but do not have to remember to switch it off if it is on. This will not bring an on off issue, as I will not hop in and out of internet very often.
