if said projector has an HDMI input (and you have the above mentioned adapter), I don't see why not.

Yes I know if the projector has an HDMI input it will be like attaching to HD TV, but Iam asking about how to connect to a projector with VGA port

get a vga to hdmi converter

One point to Note: You do need to connect the charger for the HDMI to work which can be a bummer
the whole GALAXY to NOTE about...counting down from 10 to 1.

So I get this right, the HDMI adapter needs to be powered externally for it to work?

I haven't tried it but maybe a pricey but elegant solution could be using the Samsung AllShare Cast Wireless Hub (info is here).
No cables at all!
To use a VGA projector you'd again need an HDMI to VGA connector. But this time it would be attached to the hub, that is powered by itself by its cable.
This answer my original ancient question: "Is it possible to send the display signal to a projector through wifi?". And the answer is (apparently): "YES!"
I've seen a video where the hub was used to send to a TV set the images of a race game, while playing with it. No evident lag at all.
I wonder if there could be a similar device made by some third party (-> less expensive).

Here is the solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32039367&postcount=8, awesome, I really enjoy it to present wireless.
Just recently I had the projector with VGA cable but discovered that the projector had the second, HDMI port, so I quickly connected the AllShare cast dongle to HDMI and the projected screen quality was even better.

I just got my Allsharecast dongle in the mail today, and I must say LAG is this things middle name!
If you play any fast paced game it will either lag or become blurry to give smoother playback, Im not too happy this thing costed me $100, fedels like it should have costed $40

[Q] Micro-USB -> HDMI... will it work?

Bare with me here... though this may turn into a convoluted solution.
I already own a galaxy s2, along with the HDMI adaptor for it (I believe this is a microUSB -> HDMI adaptor?)
Unfortunatly, the Note does not have microUSB ports, or even a normal USB port. So, I was going to buy this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/eKit-Connec...1_2?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1353974512&sr=1-2
Unfortunately, of course, this also does not have microUSB. But it does have miniUSB and normal USB.
So if I get an adaptor such as - http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002O1S8...de=asn&creative=22218&creativeASIN=B002O1S8IE
...Will this mean I can use my current S2 HDMI adaptor, on my Note10.1?
While this may seem overly complex, my reasoning is (I think) sound. I will be getting the USB adaptor block anyway, because it is compact and universally useful. And I already own the hdmi adaptor (a Note-specific one is £25 minimum...far as I can see).
So the only extra expense is the £2 for a micro-mini USB adaptor. Saving me £23.
...assuming this will even work.
Any notions?

I do not know for sure but I thought I read somewhere the first adapter will not allow video pass through. Sorry I do not know where I read that at.
I use the hdmi adapter made for the original tab 10.1 and have had no issues. I think its 30$ on Samsung website but i'm sure you could find it cheaper on Amazon or Ebay. Or even an off brand for that matter. Sorry Its not much but I hope that helps.

That was my plan. The galaxy S2hdmi cable is a micro-USB to hdmi converter.
Apparently the 4in1 USB adapter doesn't let any video signal through though. Uyoud have to buy a 30pin to hdmi adapter instead.

Just tried my mhl adapter from my one x no joy shame really maybe someone will find away around it

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

I checked the USB port and found it's exactly same as my Note 2, so I suspect MHL 11 pin adapter will work with Note 8.0.
Has anybody tried yet?

My S3 adaptor works. I tried it out the other day. I assume that is the same adaptor for the Note 2.

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?

I bought a cheap one for 10 dollars and it worked pretty well.
Try rebooting the note after plugging it in, some people have had such problem.

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.

Confused
Could anyone let me know which should and should not work with the 8.

Won't work
I'm on my second HDMI adapter and I still cannot get my Note 8 working.
Am I supposed to change a device setting ot something.
Attached are the items I purchased.
Any ideas?

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.

That's unfortunate. Thanks for the reply!

I think S6 does support MHL, there's an official adapter for MHL 3.0 to HDMI: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-S...-EE-HN910FWEGWW-For-Note-4-Edge-/171568755421 .

Just because someone put one on ebay doesn't mean it works. I've tried that one and it doesn't work with the S6

My MHL adapter (white one that was released after S4) doesnt even fit into the S6 micro usb plug.

MHL S6
I can also confirm that MHL does not work on the S6.....
Samsung really stripped this phone from allot of features....

Question Galaxy a32 5g mhl issue

My dad just got a samsung a32 5g. He is trying to get mhl to hdmi to work so he doesn't have to use his data to watch netflix/hulu. I've tried 2 different usb-c to hdmi cables and neither worked. While a quick Google search says the phone is mhl compatible, I'm starting to think it isn't. Does anyone here know if it is? And if so what might need to be done to get it to work? Thanks.

I'll give it a try once I get home.

I've tried it, and it doesn't appear to work at all. Sorry...

{Mod edit: Quoted post has been deleted}
Only certain phones have this feature. Unfortunately a32 5g doesn't seem to be one of them.

Same with A21. Samsung enable video output via USB-C on their more expensive phones.
You can explore WiFi direct or Quick Connect to see if you can display the video on another monitor. The use of ABD to disable apps could cause problem, and you may need to reset the phone to factory configuration to check for proper video support.

you need this cable for your Galaxy A32 5g to work with tv without using your hotspot data or anything other than just a cable and a app the app is EZCast for androids and the cable is cheapest at ebay thats where i got mine and it works perfect (( Renkchip 2-in-1 USB C/Micro USB to HDMI Cable ))

+1. There are two self contained MHL cables available. Work great. Make sure you use 60hz and if you want the tv to be fullscreen, change your phone resolution to a 16x9 one.

This is the adapter I tried using, we bought it at Walmart so maybe it's just not a good one?

lol wtf happened to reading posts?
This phone does not have hardware inside for MHL, so you must get a self-contained MHL cable.

this is the one I use. The other one I had broke, but I think that was on my receiver not the cable. (Dont plug into receiver lol)

Lol sorry, but I got confused which is why I asked, thanks though..
