Hooking up to DVI monitor?

One of the displays I need to connect with the Transformer only have dsub and dvi connections. Has anybody hooked up their tablet through an hdmi/dvi converter?
I have no hdmi cables to test out, and didn't want to spend the couple of bucks for a cable that I have no use for.

Good question. Bumping to get attention.

I haven't received mine yet, but I think a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable -> HDMI to DVI adapter -> DVI cable should work.
It works for me, at least, I'll just be leaving the DVI cable on my desk and taking the HDMI cable with me when I leave work.
I'll post my results when it arrives on monday.
Edit: May just be able to put the adapter on the monitor and skip the cable altogether.
Like I said, I'll post

I have bought a dvi to HDMI converter to try this out, but have not been near a monitor with dvi input all week. I'll update you on Monday, when I return to work.

I appreciate it guys.
=)

It will work fine, since all the signals are digital. Yes it really is that simple.

Except that I haven't seen a single mention as to whether the TF is using HDCP for it's HDMI output. If that's the case then a DVI converter will not work.

I'm pretty sure HDCP has to do with the monitor/tab not the i/o. My Dell 2407WFP is HDCP, has no HDMI (DVI/VGA only) and my TF works with it.

Well good to know someone has it working. Do you have it setup through a single cable, or through a converter?

35$ is too much though. Cheaper options on ebay i bet.

.im facing that problem now with my computer monitor. I hooked up the pad by two seperated ways-first with a dvi2hdmi adapter connected to a simple dvi cable, didnt work.second try was with a special 5 meters dvi2hdmi cable.again.didn't work. I don't know what to do? I tried it with another dvi lcd and it just saying that the monitor went to sleep mode.
Important to say that mirroring to a TV LCD or plasma works great whitout any problem.
What's the dvi problem?

i tried this with a samsung monitor. using dvi-to-hdmi-to-minihdmi adapter. i don't know if it's just 1 adapter too many, but it doesn't seem to work.
I don't need a signature.

Didn't work for me. The monitor just doesn't see the Transformer. Might be a dodgy adapter because the HDMI cable works fine.

Didn't work for me either with 3 different types of Dells at work. Just registered after lurking for weeks just to comment on this issue!
I can't post the URLs as a noob but the cable and converter are from Amazon.
I have newer Dells at home I can test with but that was not the point...
Drats!!!
Any kind of hacks to get around whatever is preventing this from happening...??

same problem here. got a dvi > hdmi adapter, connected with a 1.8 meter mini hdmi > hdmi cable to a samsung monitor..
no screen image...
connecting direct to my tv (hdmi) works fine!
edit: read some stuff on the xoom forums about a 5 volt line that's missing in the mini hdmi out... and the need for a hdmi>vga convertor in some cases.. (expensive)
Strange thing is, i connected my popcorn 110 to the monitor and it works flawlessly .. both got hdmi 1.3a ..

No, don't buy it will not work.

yeah, you need a MHL adapter like bonesy posted

Hey thanks guys... I thought its a simple way...lol..
Why didn't they make mini hdmi like the one in Sony Eric phones... ?
Btw... I don't understand the USB power port in mhl adapter. do we need to plug in our USB power adapter charger in that mhl adapter? Its a power source necessary for this mhl?

I bought an MHL adapter off ebay.
I have found that I need to plug in the charger to the cable but that might just be because I am using the HDMI through an auto switcher that doesn't have it's own power (gets the power from HDMI input). I haven't tried with the HDMI straight into the TV.
I watched a film over HDMI last night and the quality was really good even though it wasn't even a HD movie.
Just get the cheapest one you can find on ebay... they all use the same standard (MHL).

HD doesn't really mean **** if you know what you are doing.
It's all about using high bitrates, low-artifact, low noise, etc when encoding videos. I'd rather have a 25Mbps 720p than a 10MBps 1080p.

Just read this:
The power cable must be connected to the adapter while using it to send video and audio through HDMI. Power charger is not included in packaging. The MHL adapter features an USB Micro-B (female) power input. Connect the charger supplied with your mobile device to the MHL adapter to power your mobile device while it is in use.

I guess we have to connect a power adapter.. I think Sony Ericsson phones dont need this ****... i dont know why would they come out with adding annoying technology...

oN second thought, I believe it can also take power from a USB port. so If ur TV has a USB port then u can simply plugin the adapter with it to supply power and use HDMI cable to connect...

Correct!
Just tried with the side HDMI port on my TV which is next to the USB port and it worked.
Most TV's even cheap ones have a USB on them these days.
And yes... completely agree about the HD video comment. It was a very good DVD rip I had done with a decent bit rate.

MHL/HDMI support?

I just got the rogers verson of the skyrocket yesterday and was thinking of going to buy a MHL adapter so i can use the HDMI.
is there any HDMI/MHL support in the stock rogers rom?
also is there away around the bluetooth stack problem so i can use sixaxis or wiimote to control emulators? if not it looks like i gotta buy that phonejoy game controller.

dont see where there wouldn't be support in the stock rom. The more difficult thing is to find the adapter in canada.

MHL to HDMI is supported on all SGS2 phones

MHL adapter is working with my AT&T Skyrocket SGH-I727. Attached are a few pics and a link to a video I just made showing proof.
Should work with your Rogers version as well.

No problem, you're welcome!

Hypathetically, if you want to watch a video or movie from the phone (lined to your tv monitor), will the screen on the phone turn off to conserve battery? Or is it possible to turn off the screen without stopping the video from playing on the monitor? Thanks.

Would the MHL adapter charge the phone when connected to the television?

On my Skyrocket and my International SGS2, the phones will not output video unless I have the microUSB cable plugged into the MHL adapter.
The MHL Adapter plugs into the microUSB port on bottom of phone. The MHL Adapter has an input for a microUSB to charge/power the phone and an input for the HDMI cable to TV.

Good question Mike,
I've only "tested" the connection from phone to TV, I haven't watched a full movie/video.
As for conserving phone battery power, my phone will not output video via MHL unless I have the microUSB cable plugged into the MHL adapter.

I doubt it but i do not have an hd tv anymore. So would there be a way to use an mhl adapter and somehow convert to rca. And if we have to use an mhl adapter for video out im guessing a micro usb to rca would output nothing or just sound? Anyone?

Maybe using a HDMI to Composite converter would work
http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Composit...TF8&coliid=I16ARD8PBYT1ZI&colid=2X9SHCO024ETT
The MHL adapter has a microUSB cable that plugs into bottom of phone.
Then the MHL adapter has 2 other holes on it. a microUSB hole to charge/power the phone/adaptor. A HDMI output.
You might be able to use the HDMI to Composite converter I linked above for your purposes.
Hope that was a better description of the connections involved.

Thank you and yes i have seen those just wasnt sure if the signal would properly convert threw all thoae changes lol micro to mhl to hdmi to composite lol

Im going too pick up the mhl adapter and a hdmi to composite so if anyone else wanted to know ill post my results this weekend

Excellent! Looking forward to hearing about your results with this project.
I thought about that HDMI to Composite as well so I could output video from my phone to my car stereo 7" screen. Just for the heck of it to see if it would work.
Good luck Guinea Pig!

Stupid question: when I connect the phone to the TV using the adapter should it automatically show up on the TV or is there an app or setting I have to go through first?
I tried connecting it once and nothing happened.

i think you have to have power plugged in also at the same time. Then i read some posts about possibly needing to reboot the phone with everything plugged in.
to my understanding once its plugged in, everything gets displayed on the screen.. home screen/apps/everything

The Galaxy S4 connectivity thread - MHL/USB OTG/BT/Gamepads and more!

Hi everyone,
Thought I would start a thread about what things people are using with their S4s.
A few findings of mine from today:
The Smart Dock works with the S4.
The S3/Note 2 MHL adapters definitely work
The S4 MHL 2.0 adapter works without needing a charging input plugged in and IS outputting at 60Hz
USB audio working, although some DACs not working that did work with S3/Note 2 (Apex Glacier not working for me, my HeadAmp Pico and RSA Intruder are)
USB keyboards/mice working with the S4, as they did with the older Samsungs
PS3 controller working over USB OTG (although mapping seems odd, have to try it in an emulator)
Ditto for the Xbox 360 for Microsoft controller (which required an app on older Samsungs in order to work)
Interesting, tried my Logitech F310 controller with it and it works too (it does not work with any other Android handset without USB/BT Joystick Centre, but here works OOTB). The F710 probably works too in that case.
BT keyboard and mouse working, as expected.
IR blaster via the inbuilt app works great with my LG TV.
Logitech F710 works too.
MHL and USB OTG do not work together using the new MHL 2.0 adapter for the S4.
NTFS formatted drives still don't work on stock ROMs. Shame since my Padfone Infinity has it OOTB.
Moga Pro gamepad working well
Tried an ethernet adapter yesterday evening: no-go. Need to check its documentation again because I suspect it requires driver installation. Have order a couple of driverless ethernet adapters that are confirmed to work with several Android tablets and will give them a go when they arrive.
Additional info on ethernet: can pretty much definitively say ethernet is not working I think. Tried today with a new adapter (that works perfectly on the Padfone Infinity in phone and pad modes, since I tried that first), does not work with S4 with or without an externally powered USB hub.
Will chime in with more when I have a chance to try more stuff out.

On the s4 MHL adapter: I find it amazing that the hdmi can carry plenty of juice to keep the s4 and the MHL adapter topped up on power. The knock off on sale at amazon still says to use external power.
Have you tried miracast yet?
BT Keyboard/mouse?

Hi, could someone please tell me if the Galaxy S4 and the new MHL 2.0 adapter allow HDMI and USB OTG at the same time using the micro usb port on the MHL 2.0 adapter? Very keen to know! Cheers!

First post updated, BT keyboard and mouse working as expected.
Not tried miracast yet.
IR blaster works a treat with my LG TV.
Definitely works without power with the S4, although it doesn't charge the phone at all used like that (unless of course you have an MHL-capable TV, I don't).

Hi NZtechfreak if you could test the MHL 2.0 adapter and USB OTG at the same time that would be great

As noted above, doesn't work. Only way to do that simultaneously is still the Smart Dock.

I have a couple of questions.
1) Does the smart dock outputs 60Hz or this is achievable only with the mhl 2.0 adapter?
2) Is 60Hz mode noticeably better?
3) Any slowdowns or delays, while mirroring the display?
Thanks in advance.

I need to spend more time with it to answer those, will definitely update soon.
Regarding slowdowns - found it pretty smooth, which was a relief because the Xperia Z lagged horribly over MHL.
UPDATE:
1) Does the smart dock outputs 60Hz or this is achievable only with the mhl 2.0 adapter? Only the MHL 2.0 adapter can do 60Hz.
2) Is 60Hz mode noticeably better? Yes, compared them directly today, found scrolling webpages and so forth noticeably smoother on MHL 2.0.

Used a Moga Pro controller with my S4 to play some GTA while mirroring over MHL 2.0, nice! Still playing around with the Moga, but enjoying so far.

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.

I just got one and it's not working. Not sure if it's because I'm on the beta or magisk is breaking it or what.

Samsung EE-HG950 works with my phone (Nougat, Dec 5 '17 update.) Can you verify you're using the same adapter & that it fails on Oreo?

Yeah, that's one I have. It doesn't do anything on 3 of my TVs or 1 pc monitor on Oreo beta 2.
