[Q] what type of cable to go from the TF to an HDTV?

I was at Walmart today looking at the HDMI cables....I plan on hooking my TF up to my HDTV...and all that WM had was normal sized HD cables...
What cable do I need? Is it called "Mini-HDMI" to HDMI?

HDMI Mini to HDMI Male...
Get one from Amazon, I bought the cheapest one I could find on Amazon which was £1.90 (around $3) and it works fine...don't believe any of that BS that 'you get what you pay for'...

Thanks Bigmo!
Just to make sure...
Is this it?
http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-P570-006-mini-HDMI-Digital/dp/B000TT80DG/ref=pd_sim_e_3
OR this?
http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Speed-Mini-HDMI-Ethernet-Meters/dp/B003ES5ZR8/ref=pd_cp_e_1

Both of those will work, but I suggest ordering from Monoprice over Walmart or Amazon. Here is a list of cables that will work for the TF: http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10242 (the last one here won't work unless your TV supports mini HDMI, and I doubt it does).
Ethernet is nice to have but is currently not supported by (m)any devices. It's only pennies or so on monoprice, so I always pick it up for when hdmi w/ ethernet devices start coming out.

thanks very much, I appreciate the help.

Which HDMI adapter should i buy

Hello to everyone here. Which adapter, device or cable should i use to watch movies, photos or even play games on my 32" TV through my htc sensation?

I'm in the U.S. but I just bought the 10 dollar one on Amazon. It works like a charm on any rom that has MHL working, of course.
Like if this helped.

[Q] Galaxy s3 1535 9300 difference? (HDMI out related)

Here is my goal: We purchased the gameklip for our phones, and I want to run emulators, and play some games with the video streaming to our mitsubishi 82" 82742 tv. (We'll also do various video mirroring to the tv, for things like ebook/ecomic reading, android based games, or other apps.)
Plans are to use the wireless version of the gameklip so the hdmi port is freed up for hdmi out/charging, so I'm looking to buy an hdmi out adapter/cable for our S3 1535 phones, but every product advert I see for them lists the 9300, not the 1535.
What are the difference between the phones, and should I be looking for something specific to the 1535? (I couldn't find any online comparisons between the verizon 1535 and the 9300.)
It looks like the hdmi adapters can be had for about $10 shipped on ebay or amazon.
We were running our old droidx phone's hdmi out to the tv before our new phones. It looks like the old droidx hdmi cable has a micro hdmi port for the phone, and the S3 adapters give you a full sized hdmi out.
I think I need the latest jellybean leak, the 9300 hdmi adapter, and a new 12' hdmi cable, or do those adapters also have a micro hdmi on them as well?
Also it sounds like to use the home theater, I'll also need to add a audio cable to plug into the home theater (or does the s3 hdmi out also pass through audio to the tv speakers? using the tv speakers would be fine.) Worse case I can use my bt stereo headset, but audio coming from the tv or home theater would be nice.
(Sorry for all the questions, but we are still on a learning curve coming from the DX.)

You want a 9305 quad core with 2gig of ram. i535 is only a dual core and the 9300 only has 1gig of ram.

I think you misunderstood my question. We already have the Verizon Galaxy S3 phones. we are looking to what we need to hook them up properly to our bigscreen tv to mirror video/audio out.

I'd Say go to Verizon buy an mhl adapter around$40 don't buy the cheap ones doesn't work well . it
allows you to mirror, games and all

Mhl is a service key piece that let's mhl compatible tvs to control the device remotely with the channel changer. Since most hdmi tvs don't have this (mhl) they make an adapter for basic hdmi out usage since it is different protocols.

I can confirm that the Samsung HDMI adapter that is specific for the S3 works for the I-535.
$20 on Amazon.

Thanks for the info, and relocating this to the proper location, Mod.
I also looked into wirelessly sending video/audio via the samsung allshare dongle for our tv, but it sounds like it still does not receive 1080p, and some people have all sorts of connect/frame dropout issues with that.
It sounds like the newest jellybean leaks improve the situation, but spending $80 hoping it gets resolved doesn't sound very practical to me.
I think we'll go with the mhl adapter. I checked my droidx cable, and it does have a full sized at one end, and a micro hdmi at the other end. 8(
Is monoprice still the best place for low prices on hi speed hdmi cables? I'll need a 12 footer to stretch from the couch to the phone.

I've heard good things about Monoprice, but haven't used them personally.

Holy crap are they expensive! $10.50 plus shipping for a 1 foot long cable? Are they smoking crack?
I purchased 3 6 foot long hi speed hdmi cables off ebay just a few weeks ago for less than $10 shipped.
I haven't seen any validation for premium expensive hdmi cables anywhere... every time you read reviews, unless you are running extremely long distances (20 feet or more) everyone says all hi speed rated cables are pretty much the same regardless of price.

I might have looked at the wrong cables then. Thanks for that info again!
I have a feeling we'll just go with the hdmi adapter and the cable.. it sounds like the samsung allshare dongle just is not ready for prime time yet.

MHL cable that works with S2 doesn't work on S4

Hi, I bougth a MHL cable for my old Galaxy S2, and then doesn't work with my new S4, so... Anyone know any trick or modification on mhl to work with s4?
Thanks

That's because the old one only has 5 pins iirc, the newer mhl cable has 11. At least the s3/note2 cable has 11 and works on my s4.
Dont think it's moddable.

Search this forum or search google.
Galaxy S3 and S4 use MHL 2.0 which isn't backwards compatible. You need a new dongle.

You can get one of these adapters and it will work just fine with your old cable.

I had bought one to use for my S3 when I got rid of the S2 but didn't want to buy a whole new cable....and it works with the S4 as well.

Hi, is it possible to use a cable like that? http://www.everychina.com/f-z51ede7e/p-91338529/showimage.html
Where can be buyed? other web ... of course.
If it works, may select between dual mode or extended mode?
In dual mode, may i turn off the screen's tablet and works only with the hdmi output?

hdmi adapter with more
Anyone have an Idea if this would work ---

This item can be connected MHL Phone or Tablet to HDTV. One cable and two usages. If you wanna get one for your note 8.0, you can search it at ebay.com or amazon.com with keyword "mhl cable for samsung Note 8.0".

Make sure it is compatible with Samsung devices. MHL adapters that worked with HTC devices are not compatible with Samsung devices.

If I were you I wouldn't trust the price !!!
I'am sure they'll send you either a fake (which is not as performant as the real deal !!!) or worse an old mhl (the S3's for example which may also be a fake)
That being said, if you have the spare money to give it a try feel freed to give us a feedback on the case you will fill in ^^

no it doesnt work just i tried on my note and it didnt work

I bought this one at BestBuy . A but pricey but it works. Don't want to risk on cheap ones not working so I got it.
