MHL adaptor not working - General Questions and Answers

Hi There,
I recently bought a MHL adaptor and I did everything that I thought I had to do to set it up.
so I plugged it into my Samsung Galaxy S5 and then into my TV. the problem was that it was registering that it was plugged in but it wasn't showing any picture.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

[Q] MHL Adapter not working on Samung Galaxy Note N7000

Hello All,
Search quite a few threads on xda as well as internet but unfortunately nobody have been facing issue similar to mine.
Okay, let me put it in brief. I bought an original samsung mhl adapter for galaxy s2 from ebay which presumable works well with samsung galaxy note too (haven't seen any MHL Adapter specifically for galaxy note) as heard on forums and web. It did not work. So, i got back to the vendor and he replaced it to me with another MHL Adapter. That too did not work. I got a refund as the vendor was good.
I still somehow wanted the MHL to work so went to a different vendor, known for good products (i.e. flipkart) and purchased another MHL adapter after confirming with the executives that yes it would work with galaxy note. It too isnt working.
In both the cases, the phone gets charged but there are no such notifications (notifications such as USB Host Cable Connected, or Keyboard Connected or MHL Connected etc). I have a working HDMI 1.4 cable (tested and verified), and yes, i am aware that external power is required to the MHL Adapter. .
Now, every other functionality on my phone is working well, like USB Host Mode, bluetooth/usb keyboards and bluetooth/usb mouse, data sync via usb etc etc, its only the MHL adapter which is giving me an issue constantly. Can the micro usb port on my Note be faulty ? I dont think as every other options are working fine.
I have tried all the three MHL Adapters (2 from the 1st vendor and 1 from the second) after i upgraded my phone to ICS. Are any other users facing the same issue ?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Apparently, there are problems with MHL support on ICS.

MHL adapter regarding....
hi guys,
i am also facing the same problem with MHL adapter. i tried to connect my galaxy note n7000 to sony bravia 3d tv via MHL but failed to do so. whenever i connect MHL to HDMI Cable to tv and to phone nothing happened and not even my phone or tv show any sign of connection or any notification regarding that. my phone not even show the battery charging sign. i also used 3d HDMI cable for the connection but nothing came out.... and when the vender (from whom i purchased the MHL) gave me the demo the same MHL was working fine with his HDMI cable and tv but the cable and tv he used were not 3D whereas i have a 3D tv. i dont understand why i am not able to connect the MHL adapter using 3D HDMI cable to my Sony Bravia 40HX750 3D tv with my Galaxy Note n7000. still struggling with that.... any reply in this regard will be appreciated.... thanx.

[Q] MHL not working on i337 running 4.4.2

I have lurked on this board for years and have gleaned lots of great information in that time. Thanks for the work you all do.
I am experiencing a connectivity issue with MHL on my S4 - i337
I have an MHL cable that I purchsed from monoprice. This cable works flawlessly with my older SGH S2X (T989D) and my Tab 2 8" (T310). For the cable to work on the Tab 2 8" I use the 11 - 5 pin adapter, while the S2X works without the 11 - 5 pin adapter. I'm pretty sure that the S4 should use the 11 - 5 pin adapter, but no matter what I try, I can't get it to work (I have tried it with and without the adapter, and plugged in not plugged in to the USB power)
I'm wondering if there is an issue with the built in "All share" app as it always turns my wifi on when I try to screen mirror.
Any thoughts or if anyone else has experienced this, please do help!

I'm using the Onn brand sold at Wal-Mart. I haven't had an issue with it at all. I got mine at a local goodwill. It comes with the main adapter and an adapter for Samsung devices. It also can charge the device at the same time.
I found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help/mhl-to-hdmi-adapter-t2801885
Seems like the HDMI adapter situation is a total mess. The MHL standard is a joke, because apparently no one bloody follows it correctly.
Unfortunately i live in Europe. So i can not go to Walmart and grab it.
And yes it is really messed up I can not be sure if the product i wanna buy is gonna be compatible.
Any MHL3 works.
Is there an MHL adapter that will work without needing to be plugged in to a power source? I just bought one off Amazon, but it certainly didn't work without being plugged in to power....

MHL query

Hi all, I used to have a Z2 and the MHL lead worked fine, however it's not working with my S6, it charges fine but nothing appears on my TV. I kinda thought all MHL cables were the same?
The S6 doesn't support MHL.
Anyone else know how I can screen mirror off the device?
It doesn't support MHL?! Surely it does :s
It really doesn't, crazy I know.
I've tried MHL 2 and 3 from Samsung and they don't work or fit the micro usb correctly
