I know we can connect to HDTVs but what about standard TVs?

I'm on miui, so I can't check, I can't remember if its there. Is there a TV output in the display settings? The captivate allowed output to Red/Yellow/White RCA connectors using the headphone jack. It used the same cable as my Zune. iPod cable is similar but you have to swap two of the cables, the colors are in the wrong order.

I was wondering if those RCA cables work with the g2 but I don't have any to test with.

Hey guys I just ordered a pioneer avh p2400bt and was wondering of anyone has or tried to get video from their note to a unit like this. I was thinking about buying the micro usb to HDMI and getting a HDMI to rgb cable and trying to see if it would work...
Just want to either video mirror for GPS.
Any thoughts? Please share thanks.

Your Best bet would be buying a mhl adapter,it would need to be AC powered though, straight micro to HDMI ,I think, it won't work

Thanks for the reply. I finally found one thread and he actually got it working but he bought a converter and the mhl and wireded it up and got it working

Was that the member who was doing it to install streaming movies in his car? It was in the galaxy s2 forum [URL "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21301253"]here[/URL]
Yeah I believe it was. I just wanted to know if I was able to do it and what I needed. Thanks for the replies

Those adaptors were a hack until the MHL TV/monitors came out. There are some Achieva MHL car monitors on Ebay, now.

Are you sure it was hacked? I don't think he did Jack anything. He just bought a HDMI to RCA converter and it was working

I used the wrong word(hack). It is a "temp solution", like those digital TV to analog TV converters used to be.

Not trying to bump this from the dead and kind of the wrong forum, but I just purchased a Galaxy S3 and when plugging my phone into this receiver through USB it says 'incompatible USB' on the receiver. Does the Note have this problem? If it did how did you guys fix it? I'd rather not mess with Bluetooth and since a big part of my day is my commute, I hope this isn't a dealbreaker.
Yeah unfortunately I got this problem with my pioneer... sucked, I was looking forward to controlling my phone with the head unit... I just grabbed my gf's old iPod nano and loaded music to it and I just listen to that... I can also upload videos to it, witch is a plus....

So at work I tried a straight passive mhl adapter. A non powered one and I did not get any display out of it. Do our phones require the active aka powered mhl adapters ( requires usb power plugged bin) like the Samsung one in order for display out to work?

Yep! I got one listed in the master accessories list in the general galaxy note 2 area and it works great. If I remember correctly, it's 11-pin.

Can I use a mhl cable to watch movies on tv with sound. Do i have to have some special setup?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Special mhl. Not exactly sure why but it has something to do with number of pins I think. I had an mhl cable for my last phone that doesn't work on this one. Also went to best buy and tried a micro usb to hdmi cable they had. It didn't work either.

Needs to be 11-pin, and needs to be plugged into power. I got this one and it works: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0088...ct=true&ref_=as_li_ss_tl&tag=wwwgadgetgblo-20

Just throwing it out there but if you have an Xbox connected to your TV or if your Tv is DLNA capable an app called Twonky Beam will get the job done
I can't speak for the cable but with the Smart Dock both video and sound are outputed via HDMI to TV. I would think a genuine Samsung 11-pin MHL adapter would work the same.
Do you have the smart dock and if so can you write a review about it and let us know if you think it's worth 100 dollars

I read that sgs3 mhl adapters work for the note 2 also. Received my well rated adapter today and it doesn't seem to work. I'm on Beans ROM Build 2. Bummer!

You have usb power plugged into the mhl adapter?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Yep. Went back to a stock ROM and now it acknowledges its connected but the TV has no signal

I am having the same problem. I have tried the official Samsung 11 pin adapter and a cheap knock off and have the same issue of it connecting and then disconnecting. Samsung told me that it was a bad port on the phone and I finally had got a new phone from verizon and it does the same thing. This is very frustrating.
There is really no trick to getting it working.
I use the ridiculously priced Samsung adaptor with a 2amp charger hooked to it and it works every time.
All i have to do is plug it in and set the TV on the right input and I'm good to go.
The 2 amp charger is the key. Make sure u have enough juice.

I there any way to get USB audio output to work so i can use my DNA with my car radio?
You want to use the charging /data port to play audio? Or do you want to use it similar to a portable harddrive with music on it.
The latter can be done already

Does your car radio work with other android phones through usb?

You will need a USB OTG cable to put audio over USB like you want to do, they're cheap and ready to find, I use one to hook up my USB DAC AMP and IEMs and it works great.
