Ticking "Video out" from settings>display should do the trick.

Ok cool but it should work just by playing a video right

Yea I got the standard 3.5 to RCAs to work by clicking the video out then just playing around on the phone. It just mirrored what my screen was doing. The HDMI should allow playback of HD videos, etc

If you have a ps3 hooked up to said tv and its (the ps3) on your home network you can download imediashare from the market and it will allow you to use your ps3's media server to display any photos and some movies that are on your phone wirelessly through your network. I believe an app named allshare will also work, this may also work if you have an xbox instead...I'm not positive b/c I dont own one but I believe they have media servers on them also, or if your tv has internet access and us hooked up to your local network, in that case it will work as well. But for me when I want to see pics on the big screen...i turn on tv, turn on ps3 click a few buttons and viola! Pics on the tv! I know its not the same as the tv out mod but either way if you have all those components whats the worst that happens...you download an app...dont like it and delete...no harm, no foul! Hope this helps!

I believe what you are looking for requires taking a couple different cables and modifying them to work...a far as I know the original usb cable that come with your phone does not have the pin out required to transmit video directly via usb. I remember reading something about the tv out mod a while back but I dont remember if they had any luck with it working...search the forum...i believe it was titled "tv out mod" our something like that but its not going to be as simple as plugging in your usb cable into the tv and having it pop up on the screen...i wish I had more info for ya but hopefully someone will chime in with some relevant info for ya.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It sounds like you're trying to get your TV to read your phone as a mass storage device. Kinda like a flash drive, but I don't know if your TV could detect the phone like that. Try plugging in the USB cable between the phone and TV, then turning on the 'mass storage' mode on your phone.

[Q] Record tv screen to phone?

Does anyone know of an app to mirror your hdtv to your phone and record it?
I have the hdmi adapter for the note but i dont know if its capable of video in and how to record it.
I think it would be easier to record to a PC then just transfer over.

Best Wireless Screen Mirroring Option?

Hey all
Just wondering what would be the best option to mirror the note screen wirelessly on my tv? To be able to see the home screen and play games. I have heard of dongles and other external devices to connect as a receiver to the tv...but would think would be an application solution through dlna like you can do with allshare that only can do videos, photos and music
Any ideas? Thanks

Mine too. I use MHL adaptor. But thats not what you want to do. Wireless to a non-wireless tv is the rub.
Apple tv is the idea you want. There is a wireless adaptor for tv and lcd projectors from netgear or linksys. They are called media adaptors or some such thing.
