[Q] HDMI Out Problem {resolved}

Dang, another problem with my Transformer (or with the cable.)
I bought the bundle off of TigerDirect with the Transformer, Mini HDMI cable and case.
I finally got around to opening up the cable and I connected it to my HDTV. Nothing happens.
I did some Googling and it said make sure the cable is fully inserted (yep) and that a HDMI notification should appear on the device. (nope)
Anybody else buy this bundle and try to connect to their HDTV? I'm trying to figure out if it's the cable or the device.
I tried rebooting it as the old standby fix, but still no-go.
Thanks!

Went and tried on my friend's HDTV and it worked like a charm.
Not sure what it is about my Panasonic plasma 1080p monster, but it doesn't work on it at all.
And I know the port is good, it's where I hook up my PS3.
Not too concerned because I won't use that feature too much, but I was thinking of how some hotels now offer HDMI in, so that's awesome the next time I need to travel for work.
Load up some music, some TV shows, a couple games, AND I can even do some work. (Yeah, right!)

I tried mine yesterday on our Samsung and it worked well, I was pleasantly surprised how simple it was to use.

Yeah, me too! (After I put it on a different tv.)
I was also surprised how good it looked for mirroring the display after some people said it didn't look great. Surfed, read some e-mail, even started up the Samurai game and everything looked excellent.
Looking forward to the 3.1 update which supposedly will support 1080p!

Mine won`t work with my Panasonic plasma, works fine with my no name LCD TV

Mine worked great on 3 different projectors

Hdmi problem
I couldn't get my TF to work on my Sony Bravia TV. I loaded Clemsyn's kernel (v17) and it now works fine.

clemsyms kernal works for me using 50"panasonic plasma

I don't see how one rom works better than stock on hdmi unless something specific has been added or changed in reference to it. Is that what you are saying?
I do know pluging in the mini hdmi connector into the TF firmly was the difference between it working or not working on my sammy. BTW it looks great and surfing the internet on my TV has taken on a lot greater meaning since. Lots better than my lame PS3's browser

I had the same problem hooking up to my dad's tv, not completely sure of the brand of it. Samsung or Sharp.
Anyway, it would not work on any of the 3 hdmi inputs that were not being used up, so I tried plugging it into the input where his dtv recorder box was connected, and it worked.
Not sure if the tv had a setting in the setup menu's that would have made it work but I couldn't find anything that would have made it work on the other hdmi inputs. I had 3 different cables with me that I tried so that wasn't part of the problem.
I also remember the tablet was saying it was connected to hdmi but there was no video or audio on the tv on the other 3 inputs. Very strange. Works great on my LG I woulda been on one of the 3.1 unrooted asus updates at the time.
that's my experience with hdmi not working, hopefully it helps someone, someday

where is the solution?????

A solution has already been given above. The clemsyn kernel has a fix. Other than that you'd have to wait for a fix from ASUS
Sent from my mopho

but if i install clemsyn kernel i lost all my data, the kernel reset all the tablet?
thanks

????? some help?

You wont lose any of your data. Just flash it via CWM Recovery without wiping/formatting.

MHL Issues

Have any of you gotten a chance to mess around with the HDMI functionality on the phone? I've bought a MHL cable from Amazon that got pretty good reviews (Amazon Link) and a Samsung 11 to 5 pin adapter and have noticed several issues with it.
Bad lag/frame skipping on emulators. Haven't gotten a chance to check it with every rom I have but running SMB3 with Nesoid on my big screen has been a let down.
Flash Player black screen cuts. Watching a video stream through Dolphin Browser HD, I sometimes get an issue where the feed keeps cutting to a black screen for a couple seconds then fixes itself for a few more seconds. Once this occur, there's no way I've found to get it to stop. Connecting it later seems to rid the problem temporarily.
All of this may be because I went the cheap route, but I'm interested if some of you have reached some success with the functionality of the device, maybe fared better with the official cable (w/o the adapter) or with another solution (preferably software )

I have the official $40 Samsung adaptor & it works perfectly.
This setup works much better than the HDMI/MHL adaptor I used for my Rezounds.
The Rezound was very touchy about connectiing (& I have 3 Rezounds & had the same connection problems with all of them). With the Rezound, half the time it wouldn't connect requiring at least one reboot etc.
The G3 connects instantly, 100% of the time. I have a car dock setup that automatically connects the G3 HDMI out to a HDMI scaler & displays the video on my in-dash 7" DVD/NAV screen.

I think you do need the real S3 adapter and wish Amazon would get rid of the generic MHL adapters that say they are compatible with the S3. My S3 MHL adapter works great.

That is great news, thanks for the replies!
Have you guys ran any games/emulators on it?

[Q] MHL to HDMI Adapter not working?

I've bought a Digitazz MHL To HDMI Adapter, but no mater which ROM I try, no matter whether I try to connect my Sensation to my laptop or my TV......nothing happens.
I don't get any notification on the phone, nothing on the TV...arghhh, the frustration.
I know the HDMI cable i'm using is fine, as links up to my freeview box ok, blu-ray player ok and my TV.
Phone is plugged in and show as charging when my phone is linked up to TV.....tried retarting phone, different Sense 3.6 Roms etc..nothing is working.
Am I not doing something, or it it prob just a case of cheap rubbish MHL to HDMI adapter I bought?
Just HTC versions of the adapter work?
any Ideas...be very much appreciated as i've tried everything.
cheers
Matt
Attached pics of the MHL to HDMI I'm using.

I used 2 types of non htc adapters, both worked.
What power supply did you connect to the adapter? I think only 1a 5v will work for mhl..

In some roms HDMI will not work. Look in change log it will tell you if it's working or not. Usually its written in BUGS section. Check your current Rom to see if it's supported . If I remember correctly most don't work but you need to check and see if that could be the issue.

MHL works on all the largely adopted roms, elegancia, ARHD etc.
Also, it's more a kernel thing than a rom actually.
The OP mentioned a couple of roms were tested. perhaps it would benefit the test to add stock as well just in case?

I'm also struggling with MHL on my Sensation. After searching the internet, the few tips I picked up that worked for others are:
1. You need to plug in power via the extra micro-USB port on the MHL adapter. Some have said that it needs a high-current power source (1A) which the HTC charger produces. 3rd party USB chargers sometimes output a lower current which some people find causes their MHL not to work. Also, using MHL seems to drain battery pretty quick and you need a high-amp power source to keep the phone charged or prevent it from draining too quickly.
2. If it is the first time using MHL, try plugging in the MHL(USB) to the phone then rebooting the phone. This is supposed to make your phone recognize and "activate" the MHL/HDMI capability(?).
3. I also read about playing around with TV settings. For one user with a Sony Bravia TV, he had to go to the tv settings -> external inputs -> HDMI and turn off HDMI device control or something.
4. Not all Sensation ROMs support MHL, for example CyanogenMod.
In my case, I bought a 3rd party MHL adapter and it didn't work the first time even with power connected to MHL. Then after (2) above, I finally saw the HDMI logo appear on the notification bar and it worked pretty well in my first 10mins of experimenting...nice picture with sound too. Then I tried playing another video and this time there was no sound from the TV. So I unplugged and reconnected the MHL connector from my phone and ever since then I have not been able to get MHL to work I'm using ARHD 3.6.1 ROM so I'm not sure if that is the problem. Still looking for solutions...

You might want to make sure that your TV actually supports MHL as not all do. I can't see how a laptop would support it, most don't even have a HDMI input?
The most trouble I've ever had with MHL is the sound sometimes doesn't work, but just unplugging then replugging the phone cures this.

I finally managed to solve my MHL problem by flashing ARHD 3.6.8 ROM...so in my case it seemed to be the ROM version that didn't work well with MHL. It mirrors my phone screen pretty well although Sensation resolution is quarter-HD so on my HD TV the picture is less sharp, but acceptable.

I have this same problem, my adapter works and shows on my phone that it connected but my TV does not support MHL as only certain TV's actually support this standard, and oh plus that fact that my current ROM doesnt support it

My Laptop has a HDMI connection and so does my HD TV....but didn't know the TV had to support MHL....I just thought it was a case of if it's a HD TV, with HDMI connections, then it would work?
Hmmm....I'm not getting ANYTHING in my notification area on my phone either though.
Gonna try some of these suggestions and will report back.
Ps: As far as Chargers and power sources etc...all mine are HTC Genuine ones.
Thanks for help guys....will be back soon, coz i'm off to experiment..hehe:laugh:

Hope all goes well in your test's, My process was to power up the adapter first using my genuine htc charger first then plus in the HDMI cable from the adapter to the TV then plug the adapter into the phone last. If it does not show up on the phone notification bar to begin with restart your phone with it all still plugged in failing all of that then time for a new ROM and kernel probably Good luck

Cheers for reply, but tried differerent Roms and kernels...nothing happening.
I give up.
Matt

I've got a similar problem where not matter what ICS ROM or kernel I used it wouldn't work.
(see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31797423&postcount=17)
However, in my case, it works fine with GB connected to a Sharp TV, but for some reason not ICS!
It also works fine with ICS connected to other TVs (tested on Samsung and LG) and on a PC monitor (through HDMI to DVI cable).
Just not with the Sharp TV!
Very frustrating!

hey guys, i have been trying to get this to work but all to no avail have tried the suggestions, all of the kernels i can find ect but i am just not having any luck. i am also not having any joy with usb-otg. could the 2 be linked?

Just a couple of thoughts. I've only skimmed the thread so I apologise if I'm repeating something mentioned earlier.
I can confirm that NRG's current EnergyROM which features a stock kernel and Sense 3.6 works with MHL (at the moment MHL doesn't work on any Sense 4 ROMs as far as I'm aware).
Also, I recently visited my folks and tried to show off some photos on their TV. For some reason MHL would only work on ONE of its four HDMI ports. I didn't have the time to figure out why, but there you go. Maybe those having difficulties could visit a tv shop and try plugging their phone into a variety of tvs for troubleshooting purposes.
Other things to note: On some TVs my MHL connection works at 720p and 60hz (which is good). On others it runs at 1080i at 24hz which makes for a crappy experience (jerky).
ICS ROMs have greatly improved performance when using MHL so steer clear of gingerbread.
MIUI ROMs should also support MHL (I've tried a couple).
Finally, I sometimes use a battery pack that I bought via Amazon to power the MHL connection when I'm out and about. If you decide to experiment this way, make sure you buy an external battery that has a 1 amp output per USB port.
I'm typing this with a bluetooth keyboard while my phone is connected to my tv, so it can work : ) I bought this MHL adapter: http://www.amazon.co.uk/FoneM8-MHL-Cable-microUSB-HDMI/dp/B0060Z8CYK

I've only tried USB on the go once, using a dedicated USB on the go cable for a Galaxy SII and a small externally powered four port hub in conjunction with Sebsatian FM's kernel and the most recent EnergyROM. I was able to browse a flash drive and connect a wireless keyboard and mouse. I couldn't really see the point as you can't use MHL at the same time, and you have to provide external power (unlike, for example, the Galaxy Note which will allow you to plug flash drives etc into the adapter without external power).

That's weird. Got any mates with MHL enabled phones you can try your adapter on? I hate problems like this, they drive you mad and you end up doubting pretty much everything you've tried. Seriously though, you do realise MHL only works on the third Thursday of the month and if you wear underpants on your head, yeah? Oh, and stand on one leg ; ) Good luck.
Other than trying that different tv at work and possibly a different HDMI cable and MHL adapter, I'm not sure what else to suggest.

[Q] will MHL adapter for S3/Note 2 work with Note 8.0

yes it does work, had it hooked to the tv this morning

Queries on connecting to a Projector
I too had a similar question, well now at least I know which adaptor to buy!
I am planning to buy the N5100 as soon as it is available(a couple of weeks in India).
I need to hook it up to a Projector so that it can mirror the Screen. Now a few questions:
The Projector only has VGA or RCA inputs. Would an HDMI to VGA converter have any problems with this setup? Would buy from eBay
The Projector has a native resolution of 800x600(SVGA). Which resolution does the Note 8.0 output at? Is it adjustable?(because I don't need 1080p)
Is the output stream from the Tablet exactly the same as that on the Tablet screen itself, or are some elements left out? If yes, which ones?

Is this an original adaptor from Samsung Or a Chinese compatible one?
MHL devices are compatible with all HDMI Inputs,The special compatible TV's can also power the adaptor eliminating the travel charger.
Try other HDMI inputs, if possible, other adapters or on other devices like some friend's s3

Its original Samsung for galaxy S3.
May be I will get it checked with samsung service center.

Make sure you use the note8 power supply to drive the hdmi adapter, my samsung mhl doesn't work with note8 when I use a lower power supply.

Thanks. Maybe that's why my MHL adapter didn't work the other day when I was using my other charger.

In an earlier post it was mentioned you must use the power supply from the 8.0. Are you doing that?
I just tested the one for my s3 and it works fine on my 8.0

No luck for me either and yes I am using the power supply that came with the note. The same adapter works with my S4. It uses an adapter to make it 11 pin. Between the very weak infrared remote and now this not sure I will be keeping this thing

Yes, I actually tried 3 different chargers, that's why I thought there must be a setting. I wonder if the type of HDMI cable is important ?

I didn't do anything special just plugged it in. Have you tried different TVs or different ports? Also do you get any reaction at all from the tv?
I bought mine from mono price for about 10 or 15 bucks.

Dang!
Why? Just tried my HML-adapter bought and working with the Samsung Note N7000 phone (the first Note phablet) but I can't get to work with the Samsung Note8 N5110 tablet.
The Note8 is signaling that it "got it in" and charging the battery but no picture on the TV.
The Note N7000 on the other hand, automatically sending the picture to the same TV, that Note8 fails.
Is there something that has to be changed in the settings on the Note8?
Edit:
Seems like XDA member davp already had the answer for my question.
The SonyEricsson X10 Mini power adapter gave 0,5mAh while the Note 8s gives 2mAh ...Trying the Note8 adapter now.

MHL and PS4 Remote Play?

Hey everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone has tried this out yet? Does it work? Can you stream the gameplay to a TV/monitor via an MHL adapter and HDMI cable? I'm thinking about getting a MHL 3.0 cable but not sure whether it will work or not.

Ok, so I borrowed my friend's MHL old generation (for S2) adapter, and that didn't work. First of all the frame rate is very VERY poor, between 5-10 fps. And second it disconnects as soon as I start remote play. Can anyone with an MHL 3.0 adapter try and see if you can get the remote play screen on the TV?

Hi,
I have a Z3C. I tried remote play using an mhl cable that I had from my galaxy S2.
Works fine! There is a noticeable drop in frame rate compared to the PS4 direct output but not too bad at all.
I seem to be getting interference when I pair the ds4 to the phone though and the controls get laggy.

Is that an MHL 3.0 cable?

Anyone with a regular Z3 and 1080p display that can try this out? Don't wanna throw away 40$ on a cable I wont use if it doesnt work

I can't test it.
I have test it with chromecast. It's running okay, but not perfectly (the delay not small enough for me).

Ok, thanks. Anyone else?

Nope, just a 5 quid eBay cable I bought about 2 years ago.

+1 i'd like to know if this works

I was thinking of getting this one http://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/televisions-cables/mhl-cable
But I guess I should wait for somebody who's already tested to confirm it works.
I had a dodgy 2 pound version which disconnetted my wifi everytime i connected . This is why i suggest an original.

Works great

all i can say is, i bought the IM750 cable, and it sucks big time. Wont even get 1080p on the screen. Dont get it.

Do you mind sharing your setup? Which TV/MHL cable did you use?

Bump

I have a fosmon mhl I got on amazon paid like 10 bucks and works amazing great colour everything comes with good high quality hdmi
Sent from my D6603 using XDA Free mobile app

Works great buy it
I've tested it with my xperia sp and mhl 3.0 cable it has no frame drop at all and the tv (lg tm 2) says it has 1080p 50hz input the quality of video looks like a 1080p blu-ray device. Ive tested it on dead trigger 2, gt racing 2 and n.o.v.a 3 its awesome im using the dualshock 4 cuz i have stryflex's awesome custom rom (my phone looks exacrly like the damned z5 with all abilities especialy walkman tnx stryflex again)
So what are you waiting for go buy that cable but 40$ is so much
