[Q] HDMI support? Yes / no?

Does this Tab has HDMI support via the adapter?
I tried with my adapter from the Tab 7 plus but nothing i showing up on the screen.
I could not find any mention of HDMI support in the Samsung official product page.

Samsung Galaxy Tab HDTV Adapter EPL-3PHPBEG
Is this the adapter you tested?
I hope it works, as I have it on order.

I don't think the tab 2 has tv-out capabilities. I thought it did, but phonearena doesn't have them listed http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Samsung-GALAXY-Tab-2-7.0_id6929

Yes this is the one and it doesn't work.
I don't think Samsung enabled this feature to save on costs.

Well DLNA/AllShare works great with my BR and the TV both but I was hoping that HDMI would work too.
Just off chat with Samsung support:
"Yes, the tab will support the HDMI connection using the HDTV adapter, however; I'm sorry to inform you that there are no accessories available for the tab as of now but it will be available and updated soon."

Moved to Q&A section....place all questions in the proper sections.
Thanks

I have that same HDMI adapter and can confirm that it does definitely NOT WORK.

hdmi & manual
I bought the hdmi adapter yesterday and also found it did not work. However in the Samsung manual it says: "Supports HDMI/MHL connections to connect electronic devices to high-definition televisions (HDTVs) and displays".
So, I am not sure if they plan a new adapter and I should return this one of if it will be some sort of software patch to allow it to function...
Anyway, for those interested, here is the Samsung the tab 2 7.0 user manual.

* New info from Samsung Support...
Just received the call and they have been testing the Tab2 7.0 in the support dept. (no one else must know the answer) and I have been officially told that the current 30 pin hdmi adapter "Does Not Work with this tablet"! They have no idea if a new adapter will surface or when.

This is not on sale in Canada yet, but I one site has it listed for pre-order and lists it does have hdmi support but via an adapter.
So either it's wrong or samsung changed the adapter to be used. I really wish they'd just put in a micro-hdmi port instead of adapters. But I'd like to hear/confirm that at least an adapter will work.

The tab 2 10.1 does work with the original hdmi adapter. I tested it today.

Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
Does anyone know if the HDMI adapter (official) works in the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0? or maybe you can give a link of one adapter that works...
Sorry for my english, im from Honduras.

It would be great if TV out worked on the tab 2 7.0inch. When I bought it I thought that it had those capabilities, but I am unsure if it does. If anyone gets it working let us know.

I don't think it works. Not for now. Tested it before and no luck.

Same here: bought it, it won't work and even worse, it unmounts my micro sd card to be able to potentially mount a sd card.
They really totally ****ed up on that one... it's not even written on the adapter box. It plugs in like it were compatible, but it just won't work.

Since you're the only one who says it DOES actually work... which cable did you use?

I tested the Tab 7" dock, but hdmi didn't work. However, charging and audio do work.

It would suck if the SGT2 doesn't support HDMI.

The funny thing is that Samsung put a note in the Galaxy Tab 2 to bring their accessories under the buyers attention.
On that note is the HDMI adapter.
Strange people, those at Samsung.

I bet the tab 2 7inch is like the galaxy s3, it needs the new hdmi adapter thats coming out.

no
the answer is no

[Q] [ACC] MHL Adapter: Anybody Using One? What Kind Of Picture Quality Do You Get?

I didn't purchase a mhl cable yet so I don't know what kind of quality this phone displays. Anybody have one and care to do a little feedback on it.
Also where did you purchase yours from?

I don't believe the Blaze 4g supports MHL.
"Unlike the Galaxy S II, which requires an MHL adapter to connect to TVs, there is no way to connect an HDMI cable to the Galaxy Blaze."
Taken from the PC mag review of our phone. I cannot link as i do not have enough posts.

Traditionally it just mirrors the phone resolution. Thats what my Droid 4 does, so it looks ugly outside of webtop. Unfortunately i don't believe this is an option for our phone.

Is there any way that I can "activate" the MHL feature in Galaxy Blaze 4G?? I really want to have this MHL feature.. just wondering whether it's missing in the hardware design of Blaze 4G or it was just "disabled" at the software level... as the Blaze and Galaxy S II hardware/spec wise are just so similar... thanks!

I was interested in this for a bit, however anything I was able to find spec wise indicated that it just wasn't possible.

what if we use HDMI adapter like this one;
http://www.ebay.in/itm/Micro-HDMI-M...1?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item3cc120b221

MHL will not work with our Galaxy R because i've read some where that even our Galaxy R is capable of this Samsung has restricted it in the S/W level (Because they want to differentiate ours with Galaxy S II), if we want this we need to dig that and enable it in the OS level it self ..

Not at all. MHL is one of features that don't work on AOSP roms, and I am talking about S2 that has this option enabled by default.

That is not entirely true buddy.
I'm yet to see a Tegra 2 handset which has MHL enabled through the Micro-USB Port.
They have always used a dedicated HDMI port to allow users to view media on large LCD / LED screens.
E.G. LG O2X, Samsung Captivate Glide, Motorola Droid X2, Motorola Atrix, Motorola Photon 4G.
Hope this helps !

Has anyone tried if MHL it is working now with ICS?
I was in one shop and I have inserted one MHL adaptor in my R and I seen a new screen with a different meteo and some link but I was not in my home and I have not could trying with my TV.
I'm with ICS nodic rom and Ardatdat 4.0 kernel.

It was a not Samsung original MHL adaptor.
Something like that:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1080P-USB..._MobilePhoneDataCables_JN&hash=item460805c098
It is connected to the phone by microusb and to the tv by hdmi. It needs to be powered by usb or microusb power adaptor.

HDMI Cable doesnt work ???
Micro USB to HDMI cable??

Hi guys,
Thanks for this thread, I read it but still have no answered of the question - Can I use MHL cable / micro USB to HDMI or micro USB to VGA for my Galaxy R. Is there any way to provide video signal and if yes - what should I do?
I'm searching for cables ->
This one -> MHL to HDMI Cable Adapter USB MICRO For Samsung i9100 i9103 i9220 N7000 i9250 (type it in ebay search)
The seller says that this cable supports i9103, but maybe he just wants to sell his stuff. Is it possible?
What is your opinion, has anyone successfully provided video signal?
Thanks in advance, guys
PS: According to wikipedia, our phone has MHL technology avaliable: en.wikipedia(.)org/wiki/Mobile_High-definition_Link
en.wikipedia(.)org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_R :
A recent kernel for ICS (developed by a xda developer) also enabled the mobile to support HDMI output support via micro USB to MHL cable.

Whick one is this "recent kernel"?

Does this phone have DLNA?

I had to ask because Samsung does a really bad job of listing all the features on their mid-range smartphones.
Also can we confirm this phone has MHL?

I've used MHL on the stock ROM and can confirm it works. I have no DLNA devices to test it with though.

Do you have to use official Samsung Smart Adapter or can you use a 3rd-party adapter?

I used the cheapest, most generic, un-branded MHL adapter I could find at the local flea market and it worked.

internally they are all the same, anyway you need a galaxy s2 compatible one, NOT the s3-s4 version

I can confirm this phone has DLNA.

I can also confirm this phone has MHL.

[Q] MHL port

Hey,
has the Samsung Relay the S3 or the S4 MHL port?
Don't find a clear answer

well the Relay is an s3 variant so my guess is an S3...as for any MHL though it will only work on stock or stock based roms and need an MHL adapter...its not a straight phone to other device cord.

Actually, the Relay needs an S2 MHL adaptor. The S3 ones do not work. Currently MHL is the one sticking point that we custom image developers are still trying to puzzle out for this phone. Work is progressing, but we have little exciting to show from it yet.
