      The first DAC was the FiiO E7. The second was the HeadAmp Pico USB DAC/amp, but that only works with the US S3. Getting a couple more in the next couple of weeks and will confirm they work and then post here in reply to you.

      I own a HeadAmp Pico USB DAC/amp and it works with my Galaxy Note 2 with a USB hub between the phone and the DAC. This drain the battery from the phone so it will be great find a way to plug it straight to the Pico. I'm sure that is something with the drivers of the Note 2.

      Hi Fernando!

      Justin at HeadAmp has actually solved the problem of connecting the Pico to the Int S3/Note 2, contact him in relation to the fix. He informs me that if you're handy with soldering you should be able to do it yourself. I sent mine to him to have the fix applied since I have zero soldering experience and can confirm it works perfectly with my Note 2 now and also the Int S3.

      I just email Justin. Lets check the complexity of the job and maybe I could do it. Thanks for the advice.

    Does all of this need a rooted note 2?

      No, the video is quite clear about the two things that were shown that require Root.

      Great job dude!

      My English sucks, so I couldn't identify the tasks that requires root. Could you write here (read is easiest for me), please?

      P.S.: No need to explain, of course.

    NZtechfreak, do you have the official Samsung Note II charger?

    I'm wondering what its mAh output is, as I'm thinking of buying an import from Kogan but they've swapped the HK/UK style wall charger with a generic one for the AU/NZ plug, and I want to make sure it won't have slower than official charge time.

    How about hooking it up to the TV and using usb keyboard and mouse and charging it all at the same time? Is this possible with the cables and hub you posted? I'd like to do this because it would mean essentially turning my note into a desktop computer! Also, I wouldn't have to spend money on a bluetooth keyboard/mouse

    Excellent work!
    I got 2 questions;

    1. If I understand things correctly the note II has native support for the ps3 controller if connected with usb cable and shouldn't need a third party app or root?

    2. Would it work to connect a
    MHL-adapter to the note II and run the micro usb from the MHL to a powered USB-hub (for power supply) and connect a hdd and ps3 controller to the USB-hubb as well?
    I would do this to work around rooting:P

    Cheers!

    Great video -- I have aquestion about the external monitor/HDTV. Could the Galaxy Note 2 be connected to an external monitor or HDTV that supports multitouch interactions? Would the external monitor or HDTV be able to feedback these external inputs to the Galaxy Note 2 so that they could recognize it?

    ... the other question is you showed wireless controllers. Can a wireless XBOX 360 controller work w/ the Galaxy Note 2?

    Cheers!

    Thanks for taking the time to post these demos. I thought I'd share a tip after I had problems getting a USB thumb drive to mount on my Note 2. Using an OTG adapter and a FAT32 thumb drive connected, I'd connect the adapter to the phone and only get the first notification, "USB Connector connected", with no mount (though an Android directory was created on the drive strangely). It spent ages looking for a reason why, then the next day tried connecting the adapter to the phone first, then attaching the USB thumb drive. This approach worked.
    Strange, but a solution nonetheless.
