So I recently bought the Samsung Multi-Media dock.

I've seen a few reviews and un-boxing's but can't seem to find any videos on people showing the full capabilities.

I also noticed, that when everything was plugged in, the dock wouldn't read any storage devices (pendrives and HDD). Would anyone know the problem? or what I have to do.


Thanks in advanced.

Also if anyone knows of good videos showing what it can do etc.. or record what it can do :p

Are you sure it's the official one and not some clone? How much did you pay for it?

around 60-70 pounds, a guy from XDA gave me the link to buy it, everything works fine, it just doesnt read pen drives or hdd orrr the wired mouse which i think would only work with bluetooth usb keyboard+mouse

If it's the real one, I keep reading all over the forums that the format of the hdd/pen drives might be the issue. If you do a search I'm sure you'll find them. This was usually when people were buying the 64GBs cards and had to reformat them to get them to work. I'm assuming it might be a similar issue.

Its true that rings a Bell, something about fat 32 or something if I'm not mistaken

Worked for me

It works fine for me with wired Mouse and Keyboard

I even noticed that if you attach the mouse before and the plug your notes in it will automatically rotate your screen


Regarding the HDD and Pen drive I didn't try it yet but it will probably not be able to read the ntfs partitions but fat and exFat must work fine :D

NZTechFreak ? did a video with that dock as well

I think, mine is the smart dock too, bought it for $90, I don't know if this is OEM or the orig one, but the chinese seller said it is the original one..

HDMI, mouse, keyboard are all working, I haven't been tried yet to plug an ext. hard disk..

I'm thinking now, if it is possible to force the hdmi output on landscape mode..

On the big screen what 's the resolution, of course in landscape mode ?

Tv reports 1080/30p. Using Maxthon browser in full screen mode and set for smallest letters is a pleasure using on bigger screen. Most (all?) applications are not optimized to utilize higher resolution output and simply mirror phone screen. Netflix app has a problem with smart dock. When video is played in full screen mode - hdmi is formated 4:3 instead 16:9. Other video apps output in correct ratio.

    I got my dock off ebay from a Chinese seller for $39. All markings indicate it is an original Samsung dock but there is something not right here.

    Can anyone confirm if this is normal:
    Until the phone is fully charged, only the HDMI works, The side USB ports can't even be used to charge additional devices as stated. After the phone is charged all functions work normally

    This is not normal. I think it's the most obvious sign that the dock is not original.
