[Q] MHL works on all ROMS? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm currently on the "Collective" Rom... it doesn't have TouchWiz...
Recently, i tried out a MHL cable at a store. But when i plugged in... nothing happend..
so i guess what i'm asking is... do I need to change the Rom to get MHL to work?

I think MHL does not work on any of the non tw roms.

I don't think it will work without additional power source, at least mine won't. It should be connected either to usb port on the tv/monitor or to electric socket (using for example Galaxy Note charger).

MHL isn't available on all custom ROMs. For example, CM9 and derivatives won't have it.
ROMs Based on stock firmware should have it for the most part, but it might depend on what the chef cooks in or leaves out.

Mhl hdmi not working after ics

I have a HTC VIVID that is rooted with the stock (updated)ICS Rom and since the updgrade my HDMI MHL adapter does not work anymore. If I connect it to the TV and connects then disconnects the video. I first thought it was the adapter but I have used it many times prior to the update and it worked great. Is there a special ICS settings to change the HDMI output to the TV with ICS. Any help would be great thanks again

Ditto. I tested with a video on my Vivid. It played fine through the MHL adpater to the TV via the HDML cable. It's strange that some have a probelm and others don't.
The solution for my problem with the MHL adapter was the power supply to the adapter, I have a MHL adapter Menotek (buyed on amazon), the problem was that I dont know that the adapter need a external power supply (very bad point on that) and is a microusb plug
But know works good

Create an app to do what ?
There is no HDMI port on the phone, the only solution i see is to use the USB port, but then you would also need some hardware that connects on the USB and reinterprets that data sent to it and export that on a HDMI port.
I for one haven't seen any such devices (USB-to-HDMI for phones).

It is called MHL adapter
It does exactly that- micro usb to HDMI and is being use in galaxy nexus and galaxy note etc
Unfortunately not the case for our blacky
So, finally end with smart share..USB mass storage only...
NO HDMI...:banghead:

Hi,
I found this update driver and libs for our black ,and i think that we can use mhl cable ,
Just we have to waite for dev to update the kernel.

Cant tell you how much i hope you are wright and we get to use mhl
are you sure you cant use an micro usb-hdmi cable, parhaps with an app that interprates the signal and send it through usb

As said before it is nothing to do with an app. It has to be supported by the kernel. So far not possible for the black. Also possible issue is the output electricity. It needs to be 5v 500mA.
Technically speaking the OBs chipset supports usb-otg and hdmi .
Just matter of incorporating mhl in the kernel now or on ICS.
P.s. In an optimistic mood i bought the before mentioned adapter, and it has optional external power supply ( the phone charger or battery pack) .Waiting for it to come, and either there will be some change in near future or there will be new phone which supports mhl out of the box.
opti_black lacks HDMI connectivity..
thats sad but true .
It is not OB that lacks it.
The SOC can do it. It is LG that ain't interested in giving us the option.
i certainly wouldn't use it
i did not use it at all in my optimus 3D
As like the members say it certainly depends upon the taste of droidser.. some of them take its advantage while other rarely..
However its overall use by droidser is least.

So guys are you sure there is nothing to do in order to connect OB to TV by hdmi cable?
I just bought a LED TV a week ago and I want to connect the ob to it..
Afraid not a lot to be done. I have usb to hdmi adapter and it works fine with Galaxy Note , but as mentioned before not with the OB.
Following closely the development for the galaxy sl. They are still in a lock down and no luck.
But still hope is there.
ow about on screen phone??can use it for make an app for hdmi?
done some searching around for this too but no real solution. If you want to see your phone screen on the TV, connect it to you computer, use some remote screen software and connect the computer screen output to the TV

Tv out via 3.5 jack

I wanted to know if it is possible to connect our device to a tv which has not have a hdmi port, through a 3.5 rca cable like galaxy s
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SU4Czu3LpU.
Does the hardware support it!?
interesting, i have this cable will try and get back in the morning.
If you watch the video, the galaxy s has a TV out option, in the settings, I have not seen this on the note, so i doubt it will work.
John.
i was thinking if the hardware exist then someone with the proper knowledge do the job.
You have an MHL cable to do a HDMI connection!
I have one right here from my galaxy S. Tried it last year on my note and sad to say it doesn't work.

Agreed just use the MHL cable.
Its only a few pounds from eBay and works brilliantly. Perfect HD picture.
However I've noticed this function is no longer working now I'm on paranoid Android ICS so I might have to revert back to stock rooted GB.
Tried out the cable ... didnt work
MHL is the way to go.

Mhl adaptors for the LG 4X

What are the brands that make compatible mhl adaptors for the 4X? Personally i would prefer it if there was a compatible mhl adaptor for dvi or even better, for displayport. Is there such a thing for the 4X?

Hi, I'm planning to buy an MHL adaptor, my question is that with CM10.1.2 ROM is there any issue, will that work? Or I have to revert to stock rom?

Mine which has CM10.1.2 freezes the second I plug the MHL cable and the only way to "unfreeze" is by hard rebooting it
Honestly... I dunno for other phones.. But P880 is not good on MHL... because it drain the battery really fast!! Even those MHL cable needed an extra USB port for supplying power. The battery goes down 10% about every 8 mins. I am only playing online video(youtube etc.) some games might drain more battery. I also tried to use a 2A power supply.. the result is still the same.. (I found our P880 will not take advantage on higher current supply, let me know if I am wrong on this. Maybe it is just the power supply lies on me)
OK.. for your questions.
CM does has an issue on rotation for P880. As I told before, CM said it is a problem of Nvidia drivers and they've announced it won't be be fix. CM10.2 is slightly better... but it still has problem because CM10.2 just lock everything in portrait mode on your output screen. If an apps need landscape mode. it will has rotation problem. Also, I still don't have a clue about how to make it displaying 1080p.
If you need really need MHL on P880.. stock rom is the only option.
For the cables that work, at the time I was buying a MHL cable, I asked the store about it. They said any MHL has USB power should work. The one I buy said it is for Galaxy S2 and some LG model on the box and it works like a charm. Running games and playing video smoothly on 720p or 1080p.
Hope it helps and Thanks
Mike

Charging Problem

Guys, having a problem with the battery port ( I think)
As soon as i plug the wall charger in to the port the phone shows that it is charging but it actually doesn't charge. This happens only with the wall charger.
Tried Reflashing ROM and everything software related.
On Sweetrom v10.5 with Philz.
It works fine via USB charging ( From Computer).
I changed my charger too but same problem happens.
It started when i plugged the phone to a charger of Xolo Q1000 (3rd Party) and that too in a Made In China Extension Board. :/
Hi there
Its a problem with the charger not the USB cable.

You might have a bad USB port on your phone,
If you do then this goes to show don't use 3rd party chargers and extensions, you could have shorted it out.
Best thing to do I would think is to try and get a replacement charging module.

Is that possible?
:/
I mean could have probably shorted out the port?
If it is shorted then how does it charge with the USB?
:/
And btw I can use the Phone as a media or storage device too and can acess all files and everything.

Have you tried flashing any other ROMs to make sure it's not a bug?
Some roms can be pretty weird with a few bugs but I'd say it's worth a shot.

Yes, I tried Superbean ROM XXLT6.
which was working great earlier.
but the problem still persists.
:/
I am gonna visit Samsung Care Centre tomorrow as i dont know anything about DIY stuff.
if other usb cable also same , then it must be usb port that damaged.
