i think the MHL should work not the regular HDMI cable. make sure you plug in the power adapter to the cable, before you plug it in to your phone.

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.
Hi team,
I just bought an HDMI cable to connect by phone to the TV. The problem is that the cable just wont fit in to Note1. However, it works perfectly fine with Note 2.
I can use the same charger to charge my Note 1 and Note 2. But the HDMI cable port just wont fit inside Note 1 as if its not meant for it. I tried to push it but it refuses to connect.
AFAIK, HDMI cables are universal and can be used on any phones which supports this feature. I may be wrong.
Any ideas what is causing this issue?

Don't know how it looks on Note 2, but all Note 1 has is USB port into which fits only USB.
Sending screen to other devices is done with MHL converter, which has USB plug which goes to Note, USB port for external power and HDMI port for connecting to TV. I'm sure more info can be found in accessories forum.
PS. I have a vague feeling that questions should generally be posted in Q&A forum...

The man is bang on, there's no hdmi port on any phone AFAIK... Mhl ports vary pins on generation of phone, so the note2 matches the s3 and I think the s2 matches the note, but it usually states on the product page which models they fit.

Hi there, It looks like a Y shaped cable. One end goes into the phone (charger port) and on the other side, there are 2 wires (ports), one goes into the HDMI port on the TV and the other goes into the USB port on the TV. The USB port does the job of charging the phone simultaneously while the HDMI does the job of extending the screen from phone to TV. There is no MHL adapter. The cable does all the job.
On the package, it says for Galaxy S3 so I guess it will work only with S3 and Note 2. I need to buy one more which is compatible with S2 and Note1.
My only question is that since the charging port on Note1 and Note2 is similar, how come there is still a compatibility issue with Note1? I was under the impression that the cable/port would be standard for these Samsung android phones and if it fits into Note2, then why note on Note1?
That's called an mhl adapter. The port in the phone is micro usb, so the signal is converted to hdmi.

Has anybody tried the official Samsung MHL adapter with the Note 3 yet? I picked one up and it is laggy. The tv displays exactly what is on the phone but when hooked up to MHL the phone seems to lag. As in, if I look at the phone's screen it is lagging behind too. When I unplug the MHL cable, it stops lagging. Tried with some games and even the line that follows your fingers using swype lags. Anybody else try this and have this issue?
Note 3 has MHL?
I plugged it in with my MHL cable that came with my home theater receiver and nothing came up on screen.
On my Optimus G I just plug the cable in to the micro USB and bam it works.
Do we really need a special adapter?

If it is a normal MHL cable you need the 5 pin to 11 pin adapter Samsung sells. I think I may have figured out my issue. Looks like I purchased the universal MHL 1 adapter from Samsung. Last night I ordered the MHL 2.0 adapter which hopefully will work out better as I've seen videos of people playing games without lag.

How'd the new one work out? I am using a Chinese one I used with my gs3 and its perfect for videos but with games there is a fraction of a second lag that makes playing Mario impossible.
If better mhl cable fixed ur issue let us know thanks.

The newer MHL 2.0 adapter has a higher refresh rate so that should resolve your problem.
i paid $11 for the 3 plug red wired mhl 2.0 setup on ebay ... works like a charm.

Hey guys,
I was looking at the Samsung smart dock :
( can't insert link as I am a new Member)
And was wondering if it would work on the Xperia z1?
I know that the z1 supports MHL and OTG so I'm guessing it could work..
Also, I realise that the actual phone won't fit onto the dock properly but I really want hdmi out with at least 2 usb inputs, so I'm fine with using a micro usb male to female cable to run from the phone onto the dock.
This is my first post so let me know if I'm doing something wrong
Thanks in advance

It's a hardware issue actually, Samsung uses special usb connectors which can active both mhl and usb at the same time, not sure Sony does too...

I use something like this and it works fine to have HDMI out, but never tried using the USB in at the same time.
You can use the usb as storage or only for charging while using hdmi?

I heard that the USB input on that could only be used for power and nothing else.. :/
I think that's correct, as the HDMI output does not work unless there is AC power going to the Micro USB in.

Theres a cheaper version of the dock on ebay for $11 which has HDMI and USB (both full size) ports. I might buy it and try that one first.
A stupid question, how can I use the MHL cable and charge the Z1 in the same time? It is possible?

Hello guys I'd like to share my experience, I've sold my xperia Z but left MHL adapter.
I've just bought my second Huawei P7 and without any expectation I connected it via HDMI MHL to my HD Toshiba TV and that's it, works straight away, also you need micro usb charger to plug in to mhl adapter and HDMI-HDMI cable to make it works (I used my wife's pink portable charger )
My Huawei P7 is running official kitkat B123 Emotion UI 2.3, no root, no mods at all.
MHL bought from PCWorld store UK £13.99 including 11-pin and 5-pin connector

You can stream through DLNA (P7 and all new phones support it ... evem my old Huawei G700 supports it).
No need to hurry an buy a MHL adapter
Yes, you right but my TV doesn't support DLNA, and wired connection has usually no delays too.
Do you know which version of mhl is supported??
I have a 1.0 mhl cable and it works!

Thanks for also sharing your experiences. What kind of mhl-adapter do you have? Does it have an extern energy supply?
It is a cable with 2 wires: one of them connects to the phone and the other one to an USB power supply (my TV)
