I just found a MHL cable for the SGS2 on Amazon with Micro-USB to HDMI.
I have a Samsung HDTV bought about a year ago. Now i know that MHL means you can charge as well as view the phone stuff on the screen but MHL TVs have not released yet (i think, and even if they have i wont be getting one anytime soon).
So my question is can i still see the TV out if i use the MHL cable on my older TV? I know it definitely wont charge.
Anyone?? :S
yes you can.
all you need is the adapter from MHL (micro-USB) to HDMI, connect the HDMI to the TV and you are good to go.
the advantage of the original samsung adapter is the ability to connect a power cable to the adaptor and charge the phone while it transmits the picture to the TV.
hope i helped
Thanks mate
For anyone confused, an MHL cable is a Micro USB to HDMI cable - no ifs, no buts, this will transmit HDMI from a compatible MHL port. Nothing else needed (except I believe it must also be connected to power)
Your micro USB port on the bottom of your SGS2 is an MHL/USB port, and will therefore work.
Important to note is that not all micro USB ports are also MHL ports, therefore will not necessarily work on some other micro USB port on a different phone.
Is it possible to use at the same time the hdmi adapter and the usb adapter?
Thanks
No. Even if you could connect the usb adapter to the hdmi adapter, the hdmi adapter wouldn't work because the usb adapter takes up the 30pin port and the hdmi adapter would miss the power source it needs to run.
I have 2 questions because I am unsure which one is the problem, my adapter or my phone.
1. ) Will the phone charge if I will just connect the HDMI Adapter to my phone and just plug the charger to the HDMI Adapter? Or does it have to have the HDMI Cable connected for it to charge?
2. ) Will HDMI work with my setup? I am using Wanamlite 12.4 XWLPU based rom as my 2nd rom and Siyahkernel 4.1.2.
Thank you very much!
Hey
I got an mhl compatible receiver (onkyo)
and an mhl compatible phone (i777)
I have an mhl adapter that basically have two inputs - charger and HDMI
isn't the whole point of an mhl compatible appliance is that ther'es no need to connect a charger to the adapter?
does that mean my phone is supposed to be charged over the HDMI cable?
if it's so - it doesn't work.
can anyone plz help?

I believe the MHL adapter needs it's own power to function, that is why you have to have the charger plugged into it. A simple search on google could answer your question.
