I am sure that many of You were dissapointed that You cannot use Your ps3 controller wirelessly with Your Xperia Z,Z1,Z2,Z3,ZU. Am I right?
So I have found a solution. I ve tried many controllers but all of them just worked only when connected by cable. Then one day i asked my friend to borrow me his controller ( he is the owner of the first gen playstation 3) and then "wooow" it was working without cable. So what I did? I just did a photo of bottom sticker of controller where is MODEL. And I ve bought mine from ebay. And it is working fine aswell. So If You want to enjoy playing games with Your Xperia Z wirelessly You have to get PS3 Controller MODEL CECHZC1E (WHERE "E" MEANS EUROPE, BUT THERE IS ALSO MODEL WITH "U" UNITED STATED WHICH IS WORKING TOO). Hope if I help someone
Hi all,
First thread I have ever started on xda,
Used the site for years to help with rooting various phones and tablets,
Anyway I wondered if anyone has tried a MHL Adapter for the Z5 yet?
Know of one that works?
Thanks
I used the Sony mhl cable and it worked only issue was that I could see half the navigation bar but that was on an old tele at my friends since I have chromecast I don't have much use for it at home

Thanks,
I do have chromecast myself, great little device,
I tried streaming the vice city game to my TV, through chromecast it was laggy
In parts, I have 50mb fibre optic so thought it would be OK,
Basically I'm hoping using MHL will remove all lag and I can also
Use my phone as abit of a gaming device to TV,
I work away alot as well so MHL would be good for hotels,
I'm in no rush for one at the moment, searching Google doesnt really give alot of results right now, nice to know your old adapter works though
Well 50mb fibre doesn't buff you're WiFi. Minimum standard today should be 54MBit (as far as coverage is concerned), so it's (in simple) faster than your isp.
Z5 and chromecast support ac standard wich results in a theoretically 1300MBit throughput. Wich should be more than enough to deliver full HD material lagfree if properly compressed.
I'll bet that your problem isn't your isp (50MBit fibre has got nothing to do with chromecast) it's more likely your WiFi
Either it's bad designed or, more likely, one of your components is too old.
It'd check the supported WiFi standards of your router first.
To your initial question: I'm using the genuine Sony mhl im750 and up until now I didn't have any problems with it.
I've used it to play all kinds of emulators on my Z1 paired with a ps3 ds controller on a big screen. To bad the ds3 got dropped. I don't have a ps4 yet
My fibre optic was installed a few years back, new router from Virgin and stuff, films stream OK,
I only tried it the once so will give it another go,
I was looking at the mhl adapters on eBay and Amazon,
Anything I should look out for in particular?
Avoid cheaper versions and go Sony?
I have a ps3 and 4, would rather of attached a ps3 controller as I use my ps4 pads for the ps4 quite alot,
Probably have to root to get ps3 controller support again with six axis app
I use a Sony MHL adapter, haven't tried it on my Z5. Worked great on my Z1. I could even use a capture card to record it and use a Dualshock 3 controller. https://youtu.be/RekbQdR7_8s

I tried the sony IM750 MHL to HDMI adapter on Lineage 14.1 from the forums:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/orig-development/cm-14-1-lineageos-t3536846
That doesn't work, it causes the phone to reboot. I haven't tried ohter MHL to HDMI adapters and I haven't tried this adapter on stock rom either.
Sup, so I recently bought the Xperia XZ because I liked its camera and wanted to plug it to the PC to stream stuff, silly me.
I'm reading in the comments (from 2016) that no MHL has been implemented since the Xperia Z or something, but it actually can be implemented.
So, no news so far?, I'm ready to exchange my phone for another who has MHL capabilities, you could recommend me one while you are it (23 Megapixels)
u can use wireless like screenMirror ,cast or DLNA ...but u probably dont want that...since u want cable connection.
Yeah wireless won't do with my internet.
My sony xperia xz premium won't work with an apeman projector, why?
If I root my phone will it work then?
Many thanks.
Because there's no display output from the phone, there's no MHL, Slimport, USB Type C video, etc output from the phone at all.
I use Xperia XZ Premium as a game streaming device because it has a particularly good screen and headphone jack.
As we all know, almost all Android phones support wired gamepads.
But I tried an OTG adapter with DualShock 4 on Xperia XZ Premium, the phone only charges the controller. No control at all.
I tried other android phone, plug and play. So the adapter and cable are OK.
Has anyone tried a wired connection? Is there a way to solve it?
ps.
Bluetooth works well. But I also use it as a second controller for steam.
Wired connection can avoid cumbersome Bluetooth settings and have a more stable connection.
