Someone has tested xbmc + hdmi adapter to a TV? Works fine?
As i know their is a big problem in our tabs with hdmi, it even does not work with stock roms
Sent from Galaxy S2 or Galaxy Tab2
We are waiting for the JB update, so hopefully the feature is enabled then.
What model do you have? The Gtab 2 .7.0 does not support HDMI, it does not have hardware for that function. Software will not fix it.

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.

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.

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
Hi,
I recently purchased the Samsung EPL-3FHU MHL adapter for my SGS3. I can't get it to work at all. I know that older AOSP ROMs didn't support MHL (like CM 7), but surely they do by now? I have the right adapter, the 11 pin one. Hell I even have an old one with a 5-to-11 pin adapter.
Is it because of the ROM, kernel, or because I don't have a charger connected to it?
Side question to whomever knows the answer to OP's question: does a standard MHL adapter work with CM10 or does the S3 hardware require the Samsung adapter?

A standard one does work if you have a 5-pin-to-11-pin converter I think, but I got that from Samsung.

As far as I'm aware, CM10 does not support MHL, only Samsung based ROMs work.
you def need the charger connected... unless your plugging it into a mhl suppported hdmi port on a tv which basically means you own one of 5 tv's that support it.
I am using ParanoidAndroid and the MHL connectivity works to an extent. What i mean is u can see the phone, browse, but video playback is glitchy. The video flickers and there is lag. Same is the problem with high graphic games. This has been bothering me for a while now. I wanted to use S3 as a game console with PS3 and SixAxis with GameKlip.
Works for me
This works for me just fine. I have the official mhl connector with the extension bit on the end. I am running CM10. The power thing got me at first.. Make sure you have it plugged in
Shawn: Are you on S3? What version of CM10 and what kernel?

What happened?
Anyone ever get an answer to this? Or just, what's the best ROM to maintain MHL capability?

I am running Liquidsmooth based on CM10.0 on Skyrocket and my phone DOES NOT run MHL. I bought a new TV to enjoy the feature which apparently is not there.
I Had Simliar Problem
I recently bought a generic mhl adapter off amazon for my Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket, sadly it did not work.
Phone:
Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket
CM 10 (JB4.1.2)
Kernel that came with it
After browsing XDA I found a post that helped...

Basically you need to add "ro.hdmi.enable=true" to your build prop. I used a build prop editor off the play store to do this.
It worked after this. Hope this works for you too. Good Luck.

My brother just got the galaxy s3 and thought what better present than the cast dongle for xmas?
but then he also bought himself the tf700 soo im wondering if the tf700 work with the allshare cast dongle?
do i need to root the tablet ?
thank you!
The short answer is no, it won't. Samsung allshare cast dongle is proprietary and it works with some of their newest models (like Galaxy S3). The miracast standard will fix this, but it is not ready for prime time yet.

Hello everyone,
I know this topic has been discussed in the past, so, this question is not about what model is compatable with the HDMI adapter, I have a Samsung tab 2 10.1 P5113, and I know this model is HDMI or HDTV compatible, but I can't seem to be able to make my tab work with my TV, I have the ZAP BLASTER 2.2 rom installed, but so far, no cigars, can someone tell me or direct me and tell me what rom or kernel has had success using the hdmi adapter? I know ketut.kumajaya posted that he uses a dual boot kernel and uses blaster to make the hdmi work, but I can't seem to make it work at all, please any help.
I would like to know a few things about android peripherals:
I currently own a Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus and I'm about to buy a gaming controller for it.
First question:
What's the difference between 2.4 Ghz Wireless Connection and Bluetooth? I mean, can you use a 2.4 Ghz PS3 Controller on Android, or no?
2nd Question:
Is there any possible way of using a WiiMote Plus with this device? I know that Samsung changed the Bluetooth Stack Drivers, but I also saw a guy on YouTube connecting a WiiMote to Samsung Galaxy with no problem!

Like I said in my above post, Samsung replaced the stock andoid Bluetooth drivers in Touchwiz with their drivers!
For this reason the WiiController app and other similar ones do not work on it.
