It's a 5-pin or a 10-ping mhl cable? it has to be 10-pin for the tab s, and later phone models like Galaxy s3/4/5, Galaxy notes etc...
I ordered one last week and it's working fine, but the output is not 1080p... well it is per se, but the contents are not stretched to fill the whole 16:9 frame.
To display apps, photos, etc it might be OK, but when playing back videos which are 16:9 (like 720/1080p) it's annoying not being able to watch [email protected] frame. I only messed around 10/15 minutes, so I hope it can be forced/fixed somehow. Anyone?
I am using a ptv3000 wifi hdmi adapter, had same problem.
Used screen resolution changer (linking restriction... ) 'com.nomone.resolution_changer'
I set the res to 1750w x 3100h x 320 dpi
It messes up the notification pull down a bit but it did work just harder.
Use BS Player to fix the audio offset but think that is just a problem with the WiFi hdmi screen sharing.

Hey all,
I finally got a chance to test the HDMI from my Zpad Dock (I'm using a Zpad T2 / SMB-A1002-3G)
I tried two different monitors (LCD TV's) and the quality is BAD!!!!
I've already got computers connected to these TV's and the quality is very good from the computers.
The video was ok'ish but the text and home screen was so bad you wouldn't use it.
Is there a way to change the resolution to the HDMI port like on a Windows computer?
Cheers, Mal.
Did you try an hd movie.,..mine worked very well
It looks to me like it's doing a very poor 720p upconversion. Videos will always look better than text or graphics when upconverted... but I suspect its still being upconverted from tablet screen resolution.
I'm disappointed with the quality. Maybe a future kernel or driver update will help. I also suspect this is the reason that vs didn't have (and still don't) the docks on sale next to the gtablets.
**edit**
GO JETS!!!!!!
The HD Video looks ok, but text was a much better test for me. I wanted to have a larger screen because I run RDP.
Can you adjust it anywhere. The other worry is that I somehow removed the HDMI settings when I reset my Zpad a while ago (I lost a few other programs that were not installed on ROM, eg Flash).
Thanks
I have no settings relating to HDMI or video out at all. TNTLite 3.1.4, lagfix & clemsons 10.9.8 kernal.
I just got my Zpad and i hooked up the HDMI and It didnt do anything. Do I need to change something in the settings? Im running Vegan-Tab. but then I pluged in the power supply and it worked fine.

Power to the dock is needed to run the HDMI. That's why a cable for HDMI out hasn't been made yet for the zpad or Gtab.
What does the text quality look like from yours.
I can tell you that I have mine connected to a 1080p monitor via hdmi,
the visuals in whole look grainy, like it needs antialasing.
I just saw a video of the xoom on youtube and that guy had it connected to a 52" and I did not see the same grainy look.
I think it has to do with the resolution, ours is set at 1024 x 600 while the xoom is 1280 x 800.
I was wondering if there was a way to change the output resolution and not the tablet resolution?
Agree, it would be very handy to be able to do that.
Well I had grainy text and picture issues once I received my dock. Upon replacing the hdmi cable with a high quality cable did I notice a huge difference in picture and video quality. My HD movies look great, screen size (using a projector) is beautiful and the sharpness. The screen improved ten fold. Sound, picture, resolution, 1080p! all with a 20 foot HDMI cable. Even 3D support looks great!
HDMI cable
Well, guys, where to get a good quality HDMI cable from? And does the same cable work without dock as well?
If you're planning on running an ICS build, i would stay away from the cable as it does not work.
I was wondering if you have a video on your note, can you connect the note to a television to watch?

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.

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
Hi! This is my first post on xda-developers. I'm not sure if this qualifies as a "question", bound for a Q&A...
I have an HTC One S (US, T-Mobile) for which I bought a cheap MHL adapter. The adapter plugs in to the phone's micro-USB port, has an HDMI out and requires you to plug the phone's charger into the adapter, providing charge to the phone. I'm pushing to an old monitor so the adapter's HDMI out goes through an HDMI to DVI adapter before reaching the display.
Everything is working fine except for video. It seems that no matter the video quality, the image constantly stutters. Neither the default video player nor MX Player (on H/W, H/W+, or S/W) will play more than a few seconds of video before locking up for several seconds, then only advancing a frame or two. There's no problem with video when not connected to the adapter. A fresh restart doesn't seem to help and I don't think I have any extra memory-hogging background apps (just the standard Sense and T-mobile apps).
Has anyone else had the same problem? My previous feature phone had a simple S-video out that let me show pictures and videos to my family while on holidays. Perplexing that I'm being outclassed by that old brick!
Thanks for any insights/advice!
No problems with my S and a MHL adapter (video is jerky cause it was recorded using a desire):
Skip to 1.53 for 1080P film playback
Give it a try on some other monitor/TV without the DVI adapter.
Also try BS player lite instead of MX player (although this most likely won't fix it as MX and stock should be perfectly fine)

Indeed, it works like a charm on a proper HD TV without the DVI adapter. Now I wonder if it's the adapter or the higher resolution of the monitor I'm plugging in to, and unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to control the output resolution from the phone. Perhaps it's using the highest available or perhaps it has to do some non-native scaling of the video.
Thanks for your help!

What is the res. of the monitor? You should be able to find out what res. it is running at once the phone is plugged in (should be a wee info. box that pops up stating res., refresh rate etc.)
I think it could just be the DVI/HDMI adapter causing problems.
No problem

If it doesn't say that it supports the one S, then don't buy it. It could/should work even if the one S is not listed but I rather not take the risk.

Thanks I get that one but from uk amazon lol.
Just bought the official Samsung Multimedia Dock (EDD-S20EWE) and unfortunately it only outputs 720p 30fps and it is very sluggish .
Just noticed on Samsung's site there's another dock (EDD-S20JWEGSTA) and it says that it outputs 1080p (no info on fps).
Anyone knows the second dock works at 60fps ?
I also have the S4 MHL to HDMI adapter and it works at 1080p 60fps without issues, would really like to know if the dock works at 60fps 'cause I'll be using it to connect to a 1080p TV, keyboard, mouse and external HDD.
Thanks

I've just got 'EDD-S20EWEGSTD' and it outputs at 1080p @ 30hz. Don't know to check the the FPS though. The box is specifically branded for 'Note II' but still works with the S4. Manufacturer date on the box is 01/05/13.
Found a picture of the JWE box. They've renamed it to "Smart Dock for Galaxy Series" instead of "Multimedia Dock for Note II."

Still running at 30hz for me. According to this post

Samsung really need to create an updated dock for the S4 which supports 1080p/60hz. This is why I still have not bought one.
Any updates on this? Has Samsung provided us with a dock that outputs 1080p/60fps?
And could also act as USB OTG at the same time?^
Any unofficial or Note III docks etc. that would work like this?
Has anyone tried this or found any method of getting a HDMI signal from it?
Thanks

I'm a bit clueless about that but I took the usb-c cable that I use from my laptop to my external monitor and plugged it in to my Note 10 to see if anything would happen. nothing....
Hi thanks for your reply. So you normally use a USB-C to HDMI cable for your laptop to monitor connection but it doesn't work with the Note 10?
Bummer....
Tried yesterday to connect Type-C to 3,5mm Headphone adapter just because i still had it from my Mix 3 and even that doesn't work
Gosh that's weird. At least it has a 3.5 mm jack.
I have a cheapy Anycast Wireless/HDMI dongle that worked with my Mi9. When I get home, I'll try it out with my monitor and report back.

Well I'm back now and have had a play, but can't get my AnyCast dongle to work. If I go into:
Setting/Connection & Sharing/Cast
and turn cast on, it scans for nearby devices but doesn't find any.
I've tried a few play store apps, including EZMira, but all say the device must not be rooted and mine is.
I did have it powered by the TV usb port, but also tried an external adaptor.
Has anyone got the AnyCast working with the Note 10?
Cheers

Next up was our new Amazon Firestick. The Note10 sees it, but won't connect to it.
Bummer
I tried the Amazon Firestick (V2/2019) today and it worked for some reason, but was intermittent. Eventually it magically worked, but full screen videos were choppy and sometimes the audio broke up. I notice that if I scrolled the screen, it was pretty laggy and once again, broke the audio up.
Then I changed the wifi on the Note 10 and Firestick from 2.4GHz to 5GHz and bob's yer uncle. Works fine with no delays, choppiness and audio is fine.
I've ordered another from fleabay as my wife gets upset when I plunder the TV for my projects. Can't think why....
I intend to use it with a PC monitor, so I'll be able to get the TV on it too. Life is good....
Well the fire stick arrived and it seems to work mostly fine. The old boot of a monitor I have doesn't have HDMI, so I used a HDMI->DVI adaptor which works.
The only issue is that the resolution is a little high and the monitor complains.
Is there any method of reducing the cast screen resolution that anyone knows?
Cheers
