But you need a adaptor. Previously my HTC EVO3D is MHL1, I can use the old MHL cable with an adaptor. The adaptor is very small and both sides look like micro-usb.

I believe you'll need an MHL adapter first.
Here is the cable you need

Here's the adapter Link
The hdmi cable should be just as inexpensive on that site. That's what I got.

Hdmi out cable?

Has anyone bought a Micro USB to HDMI cable for their HOX? If so is there anything I specifically need to look for or will any cable work?
I believe you need an MHL adapter.
Correct, MHL adapter.
I'm using the cheap one from Monoprice ( http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8805&seq=1&format=2 ) which works great for me.

MHL HDMI Adapter

Hey guys u was wondering about getting a MHL 2.0 adapter. I mistakenly ordered one from amazon that doesn't work(apparently Samsung uses a different pin arrangement?)
Will any GS3 mhl adapter work but still need an auxiliary charging port? Or is there a specific MHL 2 adapter that I will need?

The Galaxy S3 and Note 2 MHL adapter works. It will not charge your phone while it works, but it works. To charge your phone at the same time, you have to attach the charger to the MHL adapter.
The MHL adapter for the S2 will not work with the S3 or S4 unless you get the 5 pin to 11 pin connector.
The S4 MHL adapter (which is twice the price of the S3 one) will charge your phone when connected to the TV without an additional adapter. It also has a higher refresh rate (60) vs the S3's MHL adapter (24).
The S4 MHL adapter is also backwards compatible, but still needs a charger attached to it to charge your phone at the same time.
It all depends on your needs and your willingness to pay.

HDMI cable??

guys whats cable works for S4?
You need a special adapter cable.

I bought the cable below and it works pretty well, though the phones battery still drains faster than the cable will charge. Even with the OEM 2A charger. What you should be looking for is an 11 pin MHL cable or adapter (other phones use what I believe is a 5 pin cable). The nice thing about the one I bought is that it includes an adapter for the S4 but it will work with any MHL compatible device.

You are correct. 11 pin MHL connectors will work with the S4, which also means the Note 2, S3, and a few others will be compatible with the S4. However the S2 is a 5 pin connector and will not work.
I was looking for one too. Thanks!
Thanks for the link
Did you check the adapter? What about the video quality?
This one does not work...

I had actually gotten this one and was wondering why it was not working, I thought it might just be rom. Was trying to find more info. I guess it might just be the cable, dam.
Anyone have experience with an HDMI Adapter working with Cyanogenmod?

HDMI cable

I noticed the S5 does not use standard HDMI cable...Is any available that will work with the phone?
This cable worked well for me - http://http://amzn.com/B00GE51T9Q
For some reason it received a bunch of negative ratings but I am satisfied with it. Its also super cheap but I'll warn you ahead of time, it takes weeks to receive since its coming from China.
Link doesnt work...?
Sorry about that. Try this
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GE51T9Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
or just search Amazon for "niceeshop White 1080P Micro USB MHL To HDMI HDTV Adapter AV TV Video Cable For Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300/ S4 i9500/HTC"
Do you need any sort of app to get the s5 to mirror to a tv? I bought this cable but I cant get it to work...http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DUCB65I/ref=ox_ya_os_product_refresh_T1#customerReviews
Nvm got it working! Is there any way to change the resolution?
Resolution is automatically handled, no custom options. Your best control will be to choose the TV's display options and see which scales better.
Hdmi
I just bought a chromecast to get a workaround the hdmi cheap as chips these days
I didn't know that s5 needs a special hdmi cable.. I bought one that doesnt work.. Is there anyone i can do? What is the difference from the standard? Perhaps solder a cable or something?
Thanks,

You got a regular HDMI to HDMI? You need to purchase a micro USB to HDMI MHL adaptor. You will plug the adaptor into the phone and HDMI cable into the adaptor and television.

No. I got a microusb to hdmi adaptor but doesn't work.. When i connect s5 with tv, nothing happens.
I read above that s5 needs a special cable and not the regular (which i 99.9% have..)
So is there any way to make it work?
What special and different the cable that Samsung do?
Thanks,

Does it say it an MHL adaptor? I am looking at other forums and seeing people say that they are unable to get HDMI output to work with 4.4.4, what ROM are you using?

Yes it write mhl. Rom is 4.4 2 alliance rom.
Here is the cable:
http://www.e-shop.gr/startech-passive-micro-usb-to-hdmi-mhl-cable-3m-black-p-PER.813877
This is a photo of the cable:
Because it is a passive MHL cable, your display must be MHL enabled. The S5 is, so you need to look for your television model on this website
http://www.mhlconsortium.org/productlist/
If it isn't on the list, you need a different cable (or different TV which is much more expensive. )
