Hey all..
I bought myself a HDMI to mini HDMI lead for my Asus Transformer. Unfortunately I can not get it to output a picture at all. I have tried it on two TV's that both support up to 1080 signal, both tv's work fine with my netbook via a normal HDMI lead.
I don't have another device to test with the mini hdmi lead.. so I have ordered another lead just in case the lead is faulty. Is anyone else having the same issue?
I saw in another forum a couple of people reporting a similar issue with the Asus and I'm concerned my device has a problem :/
Any ideas?
The HDMI lead I purchased is this one below, and I have tried it on a Samsung TV and a crappy vistron.
Cheers,
Tim

Not sure what could be the problem cause mine worked straight out of the box no issues at all
Be sure to push the cable all the way in.
When you plug in the hdmi cable to the tablet a HDMI notifaction icon should appear next to the clock. Do you see that?
It seems to only output 720p and no sound, does anyone get sound over hdmi?

Interesting is it a fixed level output of sound or does the volume on the tablet need to be adjusted?

It can be adjusted by the volume rocker on the tablet so it's not fixed

Hey, thanks for the reply.
I am not getting any HDMI icon notification near the clock when plugging in the lead. The lead is pushed all the way in as far is it will go..(the plastic of the lead is against the edge of the device).
The TV obviously see's that something is connected though as it goes from saying 'Check Signal Cable' when it's out of the device to 'No signal' when it's plugged in?
I wonder if this indicated a faulty lead.. wish I had something else to test it with
I don't have a transformer yet, but I'm on a Captivate phone. These phones have a TV-out accessory cable. There was an issue with some people's phones where they were shipped with the "TV-Out" setting turned on while other phones were shipped with that setting turned off.
Is there an option somewhere on the Transformer where you have to turn the "HDMI-Out" setting on?

Sadly no I can't find such an option.. it thought the same thing originally so have been through every menu I could find.

Hopefully just the lead, not the tablet.
I figured out the sound issue, sound for me works if its plugged in directly to the HD set.
If I plug it in via a hdmi switch box no sound.
Good luck getting yours working.

There are a lot of stereo recievers that can pass through the video from an HDMI input, but will not output audio over HDMI. Your audio is probably still in that reciever box, but you'll have to get it out some other way. Try Component or Composite Audio cables.
Could you guys with working HDMI leads possibly let me know where you got yours from please?
If I can get the same lead (I'm in the UK) then I probably have a better chance of it working (if there is not a fault with the device).
Thanks

Hi,
I'm having the same exact problem. I plug the cable into my Transformer - nothing. I've tried to set my monitor to look for it, but it finds nothing. I see no notification on my tablet.
Here is the cable I'm using:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330550984450&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Fortunately, my buddy also got a Transformer (we both ordered from Amazon at midnight on the 26th) so I can test the cable on his device. I'm going to assume if it doesn't work on his then (luckily) it's not my Transformer that is faulty. Then I either have a bad cable or got the wrong one (can anyone confirm if the cable I purchased should work with the Transformer?)
Thanks.

Good luck with the test.. it seems this issue is becoming more common. Could you let me know the outcome as it will be useful troubleshooting my issue.
I'm tempted to go and pay £20 for the cable listed as working above..but what I really need is to test it with a known working cable.
another little update... I realised that my Canon camera has a mini hdmi output that is supposed to output video. The cable I have does not work with the camera either! So I'm hoping this is a good indication that the cable is the issue.
OK my issue is resolved... it was the cheap cable from eBay.
I bought an expensive cable from Maplin and it works fine.. the output from the tablet is grainy/crap and probably not worth the £20 I spent to get it working but at least I know the device isn't faulty
For once it obviously was worth paying for the better quality cable.

Just wanted to add.. the second cheap HDMI lead I ordered from eBay worked fine (picture is still a bit crap though).

I avoid eBay for any kind of cables. If you're in the US, Monoprice has dirt cheap cables that I've used on lots of different devices without any issues. Not sure if they distribute overseas.
My hdmi only outputs at 720p as well. Isn't this thing suppose to output to 1080p? I have the official 3.1 firmware installed.
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.
I am not rooted, totally stock. I have tried 2 different HDMI cables and both of them play videos to my LCD TV. But not the audio? Even if I play streaming or from the SD card, no audio. No sounds from any app. And yes the volume is turned all the way up on all volume controls.... media vol, tv vol. Any word on this bug? I have read others having the same problem.
There are posts about issues with certain hdmi cables not working correctly or not at all. There are different grades of hdmi cables which may be the reason. I recommend getting a cable advertised for droid. I got one from verizon store thats for the droid x and works great.
Gremlins are watching you...
Umm, I'm having the opposite problem audio, but no videos. Can play games and stuff and it shows (both audio and video) but if i try to play some movies or something, i get audio only. What's up with this?
Sent from my Droid Charge running Humble 2.2
Yeah I am having trouble too. I want to route the sound out the audio port and just send the video to the TV.
I personally think their is a bug. I have been reading up on this and it works fine for some but not for others. Over at the verizon forms their are a few reports about it. Some say certain cables work on certain HDTVs and then the same setup doesn't work on their friends HDTVs or bedroom HDTV. No consistency or solution, just hit and miss at this point :/
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

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).

thank you for your chip in pal but i am still having no joy, jumped straight to the latest energy rom, installed and hooked up but no joy. i have tried both ports, rebooting with the cable in, different power sources. nothing. im beginning to think its gonna be my phone i will test this out when i get into work, as we have a hd tv there as well (allowing i get the time ) but im starting to lose hope would be so epic to be able to put my emulators onto the big screen and have goldeneye mulitlpayer matches at lunch in work

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.

The SII is definitely MHL enabled (well on the stock ROM at any rate) - I hope it doesn't work so at least then it's hopefully just a £10 mhl adapter and not the phone or tv ; )

OK so apparently plugging my phone in at work counts as theft of electricity and I can get sacked for it
So I may take longer to find a HDTV and another test device :banghead:

LOL, you must work for the NHS or local government or something. Still, you made my girlfriend and I laugh : ) Maybe try a Currys or a Richer Sounds or something. There's bound to be someone in there with a decent smartphone, and there will be plenty of TVs to try too! If they haven't got a clue what you're on about, you might just educate them a bit ; )
As we all know, since the new update to JellyBean 4.2 HDMI has been a problem. Before the update, I had minimal issues and HDMI worked perfect. After the update, HDMI output worked except no sound (like everyone else). A few months later, Asus finally put out a fix for this issue and my HDMI started to work again. 2-3 months later, my TF300 will not even output any picture or sound through HDMI. It was working fine on my Philips TV and then it just stopped one day. I've tried different TVs, new HDMI cord, factory reset, cold start, turning on and connecting the cord and TV in certain orders. Still nothing! I have enjoyed my tablet just this HDMI is a big problem. Anyone have a fix or heard of anything new to come from Asus? Please Help

When you connect the HDMI cable to the tablet do you get the HDMI notification? or you no longer get anything at this point?

The tv recognizes the HDMI input but when it switches over, there is no signal, no picture, nothing....The tablet use to give me a HDMI icon (when it worked) but not anymore.

Can you tell me which version you are currently on? If previous version were working better you can always go the Asus site and download older version.

I'm on 4.2.1 build 10.6.1.27.1 20130711
The weird part is before I updated to the newest build the HDMI worked then when I checked for a new update it stopped. I installed the new update and it hasn't worked since.
