Hey XDA,
I have just shattered my Xperia Z display and I am trying to backup all my data before submitting the phone to repair center.
Now my problem is that the display of xperia Z is totally shattered and I cannot unlock my pattern lock.
so I am considering 5 in 1 MHL to connect my phone with hdmi to TV and usb mouse to unlock the mobile.
will this cable work :- Microware 5 in1 MHL HDMI Adapter HDMI in Data Cable Black HDMI Cable (Black) (search this on flipkart)
or is there any other cable you can recommend or even any other way to unlock my phone will be helpful. :good:
You can just connect your mouse to your phone via usb cable and then it displays simple mouse and you can controll your phone normally

I was hoping someone would have some insight regarding a problem I have using an MHL adapter with a DVI connector attached on.
I have this MHL adapter: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00827EGG2/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm using dvi adapter: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JCQVW8/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And connecting it to this projector: http://www.amazon.com/Optoma-EP739-...TF8&qid=1381161207&sr=8-1&keywords=optoma+739
The projector doesn't have an HDMI cable so I thought i'd throw on an HDMI to DVI adapter to get around that.
I've used the HDMI cable and MHL adapter on other stuff before and they work great. I've used DVI adapter and HDMI cable to connect my laptop to the projector and that works too.
When I use the MHL adapter with the DVI adapter and connect it to the projector, my One S Screen becomes all scrambled and the projector detects a signal but it displays a blue or black screen or occasionally I see about half of the notification bar and the rest of the projection is the blue screen. Also, my phone freezes at that point and I have to force restart it.
My scrambled screen one s screen looks different every time, but something like this: http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/3894/img20110927034536.jpg
If the projector's manual will help, it can be found here: http://www.projectorcentral.com/pdf/projector_manual_2566.pdf
I'm running rooted stock rom.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
htc media link hd
did you try the htc media link?? i know its a bit expensive but i think that would be your best thing to try
you'll just need to connect the media link to your projector and use wifi to set everything up... no need for mhl and dvi connector
I know the galaxy s4 does but on my nexus 5 it does not work...who else has tried it?
Only slimport works with the N5.

MHL cable doesn't work with the Nexus 5. You need a Slimport cable. When you plug in a Slimport cable, it works automatically (the display connected to the other end shows the same thing as the phone's screen), no app is needed.
The cables are not expensive, but get one which will power the phone also - HDMI display uses a lot of power, so this will prevent your battery from running down. I used the following cable from Newegg, Plugadget Micro USB HDMI Adapter SlimPort Micro USB 4K HDMI Audio Video Cable for Smartphone Tablets. It cost $14. However it took a long long time to get to me.
Hi guys!
I am just curious how much devices could the nexus 5 handle through OTG.
I am thinking of connecting a slimport device to put the screen to monitor, and connecting a mouse and a keyboard.
Is the nexus 5 capable for that? Using an active usb hub (get it's power source from a wall adapter not from the phone) will charge the phone? Is it even possible to connect multiple devices to the phone through an USB hub?
Hello!
I just bought an MHL Cable for my GS5 (DeLOCK 83296) and I plugged it into the MHL port of my Toshiba Smart TV: apart from start charging the phone, nothing happens.
I also tried plugging the cable to my Note Pro 12.2 tablet, but the result is the same.
I tried plugging the cable to other standard HDMI ports, no signal.
Is there anything I have to do to make this work? Is the cable faulty? Could MHL version be a problem?
Thanks for your help!

That MHL cable uses 5 pin MHL. The S3 and newer Galaxy phones use 11 pin MHL cables. You need either a 5 pin to 11 pin adapter, or a different MHL cable.
Ouch!! Could you please mention a cable that is ok for S5?
Thank you!
I've tried this one Aibocn 3321355, but any cable that says it works with the S3/S4/S5 or that has a 11 pin adapter should work.
Isn't it possibile to have only an HDMI connection on the TV side? Is the USB plug mandatory?
As I sadi, my TV has a powered MHL port...
I bought one of these merely for fun and due to cost.
Works perfectly with both S4 and S5.
Plug into hdmi of tv, usb into a plug and other end to phone, comes on soon as power the usb plug.

Looks like if you get a MHL 2.0 or 3.0 adapter, you won't have to connect the adapter to another power source.
The MHL cable has a 5 pin connection, standard on all other phones. You will find the S5 is 11pin so you will need an adaptor 5-11 pin. Easily found on eBay, $2.00
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I want to buy the oneplus 7.
Can you confirm this phone has HDMI output ? Some people say it does only work with op7 pro.
If you manage to make it work, can you tell me which dock did you use ?
Thanks,
I dont know about hdmi (i havent a cable to test) but ScreenCast(aka Miracast,aka mirror your screen by wifi) work much better than op3, more quality, stability and less lag [i test it with same tv, same wifi only diferent is the phone]
oneplus 7 supports HDMI out via USB type C port

Amazon Basics USB C to HDMI adapter and then normal HDMI
I have a HAMA dock from a usb c to HDMI/usb c/2x 3.0 usb A ports. It does output video and audio, the charging and video output is kinda fiddly. Tried getting the AMPERE app from playstore to get a reading on the charge current but it doesn't seem to detect it charging although i do think the phone is getting power. (I guess 900ma, that's what;s written on the back side of the dock). While charging and video output i managed to plug an usb stick and it worked. Tried plugging a usb mouse but for some reason it did not work.
