Is there such thing as micro USB to HDMI cable? I am talking about cable that would connect to micro USB port on HTC Desire S and to HDTV so i can see what i see on smartphone's screen on HDTV.
I know about USB to HDMI adapter but it costs ~$70. However i thought maybe there is a cable that would allow me to do same thing?
Thanks.

Okay then what about USB to HDMI adapter?
The desire s doesn't have a tv out feature so as far as I'm aware even if there was such a cable then it still wouldn't be possible,
You can however stream media from your desire s using DNLA to comaptible devices such as PS3, xbox360, certain tvs etc.

So if smartphone does not have HDMI out then that means it does not have TV OUT?
MHL means micro usb to hdmi. It works with "extmicrousb" port. Desire S has just "microusb" port. DLNA is a good idea

Only newest televisions support DLNA and DLNA adapters cost a lot.
Dlna adaptors are the only way to do it with a stock rom. But I am unsure of whether an application exists that will let us connect the phone using a cable.
it's not a cable problem, desire s does not support video out

I am going to buy mhl-hdmi cable (htc) to connect my phone to hdtv. my qestion is, will it works on my rooted (s-off) sensation xe with dark forest sense 4 rom?
and If I am using sense 4 rom which media link I have to buy (media link HD or media link)?
MHL is a standard protocol, it depends on both devices having the hardware to support it. The sensation does and it is down to your kernel to provide the driver and enable it. You should check that your TV has MHL enabled.
As to the media, again MHL is a standard so it is not connector specific - you will need an MHL lead that connects micro USB to hdmi for the sensation to work.
Is there any way that we can get Tv-out function ntsc/pal in our Sensation,instead of HDMI/Mhl out?

I believe Elegancia Blitz sense 3.6 ROM included that option... But don't know if there's the appropriate cable or not

tried with nokia 5800 xpress music tv-out cable,doesn't seamed to be work.my tv doesn't support hdmi or any mhl cable.mine is samsung flat tv.

Buy some sort of conversion cable. Like VGA to HDMI and vice versa. They're not unheard of, but you'll still need a MHL adapter.

Hey guys i am back in this thread,
Mhl cable/converter doesn't seamed to be available in market,so any work out with "S-video" or Nokia TV-out function cables on device ?
PS:
Galaxy S i9000 supports Ntsc/pal tv-output.So no on sensation.
Also,RGB-to-3.5mm jack tv-out cable doesn't work,It shows me as "Headphone" icon.

This requires special 3.5mm jack, which the Sensation most probably lacks (only device I know has it (from the android devices) is the i9000 and it's variants). The adapter should not be from MHL but from HDMI, such as these:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trk...o+rca&_nkw=hdmi+to+rca&_sacat=32852&_from=R40
however, I tend to doubt if a normal cable would work, as HDMI is a digital standard while RCA is analog.

So i guess This One cable should work but it requires a HDMI-To-sensation cable converter in order to connect to my device(which our device don't have HDMI plug).

Yes, it's called MHL adapter (make sure it's compatible with sensation/i9100 (galaxy S2), as there are devices which have a different pin layout or even a different tech for HDMI via USB (Nexus 4 uses SlimPort and not MHL). Do NOT buy the one for Galaxy S3 or Note 2, as they are incompatible.
Hi, has anyone tested if the HTC One Mini has HDMI out through the Micro USB port?
Also, can you just plug in a Micro HDMI cable like this one or do you need a MHL adapter?

Htc one mini does not have support for any form of HDMI out.
It supports usb-otg and wireless display.

Hi!
Does anyone know whether connecting our phone to a TV via Micro USB to HDMI cable would work?
If so, is there a cable you'd recommend?
I loved using my previous smartphone as a portable movie player and I'd love to do the same with my XT1562.

you could buy a micro usb mhl hub to hdmi which normally includes a few ports other than hdmi. I haven't tested it myself but the prospect of installing Kodi into the phone, plug the mhl hub, hdmi cable to the tv, plug a bluetooth mouse adapter to the mhl hub usb port then you get a small android tv player. the only problem would be charging the phone, I'm not sure if the mhl hub could charge it.
Tell you what, I have an old moto Atrix HD with dual port (mini hdmi and micro usb). Perhaps I should buy the mhl hub and see if it works.

AFAIK Moto have no MHL nor Slimport, so it's not able to send video through MicroUSB.
Depending on your TV you could use screencasting.
