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..

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

I use the Samsung MHL and Samsung 11 pin adapter and the picture quality is amazing. Even on my projector the resolution comes up as 1080 and it looks awesome.

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!
Just a quick question.. will galaxy s3's mhl to hdmi cable work on our note2?

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.

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?

You're right, I didn't read properly, my apologies.
The app I was referring to was actually below which includes media streaming:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zappotvlg
But if you want true mirroring then you'll need mhl, no app for it.

Maybe over wifi (wifi direct)? And yes,over mhl (usb to hdmi adapter) too... But be careful with adapter,because I think that must be with power connector (just with micro usb) on it too. Google&XDA are your friends...

How to do with with wifi direct?
Has anyone been able to get their tab s to show on a tv? I used to be able to use a micro USB to hd I adapter with my Acer Iconia to mirror my device to a tv. The tab s won't do it.
Any thoughts?

Samsung has a different pin out on their micro USB port and if you want to use a MHL adaptor you have to be sure to use a Samsung compatible one.
Hi guys.
Hope I have posted this on the correct topic/forum.
I have the HTC One Mini 2 and I have bought a MHL adapter to connect my phone to my plasma tv via hdmi. But when I do this the tv remains blank. Is there something I need to enable or? Can anyone point me in the right direction please.
Thanks guys.

my guess is mini 2 dont have mhl. Go curse gsmarena and believe what had been writen in htc website.
I wonder about this too .. My mhl adapter that I use for my galaxy tab 3 8 won't fit mini 2 port. Have u got ur charger plugged into mhl cable for power ?
Yes I have the charger plugged in.

Does the mhl adaptor push in all the way ? The my mhl adaptor only goes in halfway ... That's why it doesent work ...
Mini 2 does not have an MHL port.

According to the kernel log, it doesn't
You can try connecting it to a TV with an MHL cable. I tried, it doesn't work.

You can cat /proc/kmsg or run dmesg if you're rooted. But seriously, One Mini 2 doesn't support MHL.
You should probably send an email to HTC if you still have doubts.

Yes
Htc informed me yesterday that ther one mini 2 had HML capability
That's strange. I have asked HTC about MHL support and they confirmed the phone has it! But I am unable to connect via MHL adapter
Just found this online shop selling this mhl cable that says it's compatible with the one mini 2 only : http://www.gadgets4geeks.com.au/epa...s4geeks/Products/MHL-5/SubProducts/MHL-5-HOM2
I have a mhl for my one x that does NOT work on my girlfriends HTC one or my brothers Samsung galaxy so I think there are different standards of mhl, different pin outs.
