[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.

Anyone tested this kind of cable?

Hello guys! I'm willing to buy micro hdmi to hdmi cable, something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Fosmon-High-Speed-Micro-HDMI-HDMI-Cable/dp/B003UH0Z9Q
Has anyone tested this kind of cable yet on Blupure XL or Allview X2 Xtreme ? Would it work ? I want to use this cable on non smart lcd tv's. If anyone tested this and works, let me know please.
Thanks! :good:

I've never tried but this could be interesting if it works

No it will not work.. Pure XL does not have a micro HDMI port, so no where to hook it into-
"High-speed Micro HDMI to HDMI cable, A to D type; please note, this is not an MHL cable"
this cable does NOT have usb > HDMI functionality...
you need a MHL cable for that
try something like this:
http://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=8675
(theres numerous ones on amazon, but they all have specific phones listed, mainly samsungs, but MHL is a standard that a lot of phones use...)
I have a similar one that I couldn't get it to work or even recognized on the PURE, but my HTC One m7 sees it but doesnt consistently work (it recognizes then doesn't.. bouncing between the two)
let me know how it works out

Well that seems obvious finally... I didn't saw that it was a micro HDMI and not a micro USB...

Awesome, thanks for advice. I'll try this very soon. MHL should work because i've searched a few tutorials on YT and every cable is MHL, didn't notice that before. Thanks a lot.

just to reiteriate; mine doenst work on my pure, and isnt recognized by it

I don't believe the phone is MhL capable either.
As far as I'm aware its only options are wireless casting.

Wireless Casting has a lot of delay, it's no good for gaming.
Is there another way to do this without delay?

No, if it's the only option it works that way. The phone doesn't have any other outputs that I'm aware of.

Samsung HDMI Adapter
The Samsung HDMI Adapter, USB Type-C to HDMI, works perfectly with my Essential PH-1

Care to elaborate why all other Choetech hdmi products won't/don't work? "Confirmed by email" is not very helpful.

The travel inspira hubs listed do not work for HDMI out, at least not with Oreo beta 2.

I emailed them asking why the adapters I bought weren't working on my Essential, and they told me that the phone isn't supported and they also don't have any adapters that support the device. I don't know why though, they didn't/couldn't give me an explanation. The email is in a pretty bad German, so you probably won't understand it, but I'll attach it anyway for reference. Sorry for the vagueness, should have made that clear at the beginning.

I got this one, but based off of another user indicating it woks, but that was on 7.1, not 8.0. I recently saw in another (or this) thread someone bought another adapter that someone said worked, but wasn't working for them on the beta. Makes me wonder if it's broken on the beta...

Mine definitely works with the beta, too.

The LeEco usb c earphones also works

I think I determined why this may not be working for some, your TV or monitor. The travel inspira hub will not work on any of my samsung TV's, in the MHL port or otherwise.
However, it does work on my Samsung S27E330 monitor. This leads me to believe that the TVs do not have the most recent version of MHL, and thus will not work. This is kind of a bummer because I intended to use this on my TV in the living room, but at least I can confirm the device does work with Beta 2. I have not returned the legacy adapter, so I will test using that as well and report back.

Interesting observation. I tested the adapter successfully on the HDMI 1/MHL port (didn't check the other ones) of our Samsung Smart TV from the C series, which is from 2010 I believe..
But I also think the issues that some people mentioned with normally working adapters are issues with the display device itself.

Oppo Find X2 USB-C to HDMI out. Does it work?

I got a USB-C hub adapter that has USB 3, SD card readers and HDMI out, but it doesn't seem to work.
No video out.
Are there any settings I need to change to make it work? Any OTG settings or something?
This is the adapter I have.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000544358433.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.1cf54c4dwgapcH
The first one on the left.

Nope, it seems it was either disabled in the kernel or the pins weren't configured to enable DP Alt Mode.

I have usb c with my dell monitor and I can confirm it works fine. It screen mirrors it.
Even the hdr works from plex, emby etc.
My Samsung tab s6 has it disabled, so annoying.

2 conflicting answers, I guess your best bet @samusx is to buy it & try it yourself, good luck!

No issues here
It works for me as well. I connected my Oppo Find X2 with a USB-C hub and then with a regular hdmi cable to a cheap beamer and it worked fine.
Good luck!
[edit] I have a Hyperdrive USB-C connector [/edit]

Works fine here.

i have one. it's work on Android10. but no work on Android11.

I got a USB-c hub including an HDMI out, and it does work.
My X2 Pro is currently on Android 10.
When the update comes out eventually for my phone and I update, I hope it still works.

Hi everyone!
Please, Android 11 is it possible the HDMI output? Oppo find x2

Works on android 11, this is how I play cod mobile using xbox controller. Maybe not all USB standards are the same. Like not all USB-C to 3.5mm jack are the same. Make sure you try more adapters/dongles.

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.

{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)
