Are you sure you bought the correct one?
Youll need the one for the galaxy s3 because it is 11pins i believe and there are mhl ones with 5 or 7 pins which is what most sell. So you might just need the 11pin adapter
so if you do buy it make sure its the galaxy s3 one as it is already 11 pin usb connector
You need a 5pin to 11 pin adapter to make what you have work, the adapter can be found for $3 shipped
The Samsung kit I got has the 5pin to 11pin adapter included but I have no signal on TV with or without the adapter . The Note does make a tone when I plug the adapter in. Do I have to enable something on the phone?? Thanks, Mike

Do you have your USB power connected to the MHL adapter while connected to the Note?
There's another MHL thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2014441
Yup. Everything connected and just tried a different USB cable and also the 2amp Note wall charger. Giving up for tonite. Would appreciate more hints or advice-did look at some of those other posts. Thanks!

I got nothing to add. I just plug my Note into the MHL adapter, select my source on my TV and boom, I see my phone screen on the big screen. There's nothing to set on the phone AFAIK.
The resolution when using MHL is just 1920x1080 30Hz only, the screen quality is very bad, I'm disappointed
No, all stock for now..

My Amazon Basics 3 meter HDMI cable was no good. Different cable fixed my issue.

How many pins does a note 2 have?

Are you running a custom ROM?
http://www.amazon.com/Fosmon-Female...20&sr=8-16&keywords=mhl+adapter+galaxy+note+2
I bought this cable for my note2. it works great and the image out on my tv is pretty awesome. for this to work you just need hdmi to hdmi cable and your charger and baam it works. this product at times needs to be moved around so it can show on the tv but other then that it works and its cheap.
I have 1. It works but it is a little laggy for watching videos.

Yea you might have the wrong adapter. I have the Orealo C1 MHL Slim Pico Projector that i use with mine. It the projector came with two cables and I tested them both separately one was the HDMI and other was MHL. They have to be used together for the Samsung to have a video output. Not that its a bad thing because it extends the cable length. LOL. But check that you have the right one.
Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=151158410612 this work for me perfectly fine. Came in 2 Days work for my s4 and note 2 .

I only have 2 hdmi ports in my vizio tv with 2 hdmi cables. I'm thinking of getting the above. Would a female to female hdmi adapter take away from the quality of the image?
Does anyone have a link to an mhl adapter with a female port which works for you?
Thx!
Anyone had any luck with these cables? Specifically using an external DAC while still powering the phone. It's possible on my Nexus 7 with a custom kernel.

I am using one of these cables, but in a different manner, ie I am accessing a WD Passport 1TB external drive. (does not have ac in) Both my drive is powered AND my phone is charged. (tried using both a 10kmAh external battery pack as well is direct AC adapter.
Know it's not exactly the setup you are using, but as far as cables go, the phone seems to work well with this setup. YMMV

If I may ask, where did you get the cable? The only one I found so far is on Amazon and review there say that it will not charge the phone, just the external device.

Got the same cable and its not working, do we need a special kernel to make it work?
Sent from my GT-N8000 using xda app-developers app
On my Nexus, I did have to flash the right kernel. I'm guessing that will have to happen here too.
Why not make a cable that will charge and otg

Just an update. I ordered one of these http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=261170130579&index=0&nav=SEARCH&nid=87388073446
Should have it next week to test but based on the seller's description and testing on similar devices, sounds promising. I'll report back.
I have just bought it.
Initially USB hosting works, but I have no chance to charge at this time.
-----update-----
The female micro USB jack does not charge the phone like the one for Galaxy Tab.
Do you think we still need to add a 40.2k ohm resistor just in the galaxy s3 and will a stock kernel work?

I would like to add I managed to get an OTG + charging cable working for the Note 2 (N7100) using a cable made with these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953061
But... the 4.1.2 update stopped the USB from working on my Note 2, and someone else is reporting a similar problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38611244&postcount=42 . What happens is the Note 2 does detect it's using a dock, but the USB functionality doesn't work for some odd reason (even after a reboot).
I will reply again if it starts working in a future update.

Probably the same as the s3 - shorted pins = otg+no charging, resistor fools the phone into thinking it has an accessory/dock that can charge safely.

It sees that it's in a "dock" but nothing I plug in will work. It does charge though. If I short out the pins I get host mode, but no charging. This is with the Jedi rom, not stock.
Just a quick question.. will galaxy s3's mhl to hdmi cable work on our note2?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
My experience last week.
Bought one
Try it at home
returned it within the hour
Odp: MHL
Bought one of eBay and works perfectly well.
Yes, it works and works well.. Buy it from Samsung with a 50% off coupon and you get it for around $25 with shipping. I bought one from eBay ($10) and it was not from Samsung, even though it said it was and it did not work.
As I am discovering, though, take note of the copy protection the S3 employs. Connecting it to a recent, big-name TV? Probably fine. No-name, older, analog, or some foreign displays refuse to connect.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the response. As mhl to hdmi for note 2 cost a lot dearer here compared to the one for the s3... I was just thinkinv if theres any difference as Ive read confirmation that the two devices uses the same adapter
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
The only thing I know that is important in regards to the MHL adapter is that is must be a 11-pin and most on the market is a 5-pin which is why a lot of the adapters dont work
The connectors section of this Wiki Page says that older tvs will also require it to be powered.

I've just bought S3/Note 2 Samsung MHL adapter and it doesn't work without external power source when connected to the LCD monitor (the monitor is 4 years old). But maybe it's different story with new TVs or monitors.

yes.. that is exactly the ONLY different between MHL for S2 and S3/Note2
S2 uses 5-pin micro USB
S3/Note2 uses 11-pin micro USB
I bought OEM S2 MHL adapter.. and it comes with 11-pin converter. no prob at all.
I bought two at ebay from two diff sellers. Around $10 shipped from Hong Kong. Have been using them for over three months. Working fine and the material quality is not bad.
it works.
Sgs3 and note 2 has the same Microusb port.
I tried both in Samsung Galaxy Smart dock and it works flawlessly.
I hear u cannot conect both mhl and usb otg cables to smart dock with both working at the same time. Is that right? I wanna know this cause i want to use a rf (USB)wireless keyboard while having the phone mhl'd to my tv(used as a pc). Don't want to use BT keyboard. Any news on that?

Hello!
Did anyone notice that after update to MK7 one can charge the watch only with the supplied charger?
I tried generic USB cable with generic USB charger and stuf ain't chargin' any more.
Perfectly fine with the supplied charger.
Any ideas what Sammy came up with this time?
I can charge just fine with a USB cable.

And me, tried 6 different ones.

And you have the latest firmware XXUAMK7, right?
I can charge with any. How many have you tried?
Maybe the other one you tried doesn't work? Try another?

Tried two, both work fine with the phone.
Not home now but will try them off usb port in laptop (500mA). Phone chargers ar 1A (2A for note 2 & 3). Gear's charger is only 350mA, maybe they built in damage prevention from too high currents?

For those that it works from phone chargers - it used to work as well before MK7 update. Are you sure you are on MK7??

I've noticed with some chargers...the gear will not display a charging icon, but the unit will charge. If this happens, you may power off the gear, and then you will receive a charging animation on your unsupported? charger.
