[Q] Which ROM is most active and support HDMI tv output? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I updated to ics since the very first leaked offical version and have no time till now. I find the version lagging and also the scrolling bug so now i have some time I wanted to reinstall a new ROM.
Which ICS ROM supported TV output? Seen most of the ROM description and none stated whether it works for tv output or not My internet is slow and just waiting for it to download can take 2hrs for one ROM.
I dont really understand what it mean by original android development and android development but I assume one is from a clean ASOP while another one is from stock rom. So i download one from each but turned out both tv output doesnt work. When I plug it into the tv the screen appear but the screen on the tv "hangs" there even when I am doing on my phone.
This is the two I tried:
[Rom][AOKP-B40](AROMA+OTA)[01/07]Resurrection Remix ics v2.5.2[4.0.4]
[ROM][4.0.4] PARANOIDANDROID v1.5a [CM9HYBRID][25/06/2012]
Still downloading
[ROM][LPF]FOXHOUND Revolver Ocelot|ICS|OTA|Performance|AROMA|31 May and it's still 1hr plus more to completed.
Can anyone kindly tell me whether this rom supported TV output?
Been searching for rom and the comments of each rom for around 3hrs plus le.
Hope some one can reply asap, thanks for your reply

I'm struggling to find the "I'm with stoopid" smiley, can you help?
CM9 does not currently support TV-out on the I9100, the one thing the OP specifically asked for. At worst you'll get a static image/no output, at best you'll get something when playing back videos only.

Now i know. Sorry.

Only stock Samsung has working tv output but all stock roms should work. If the rom is CyanogenMod or AOKP or AOSP or MIUI it will not work.

[Q] MHL Cable support?

Hi my name is chofny and i have tried many custom roms....
I cant find anny rom that support the mhl cable...
If some one can use the mhl cable can you plz tell witch rom you have and make a vid how you connect the cable 2 tv and how evrything should be done... maby i do something wrong....
thanks in advance
Chofny
As far I know stock roms only support it. But custom roms based on stock should work also
Official MIUI 4 roms and samsung roms support it
On CM9/AOSP/AOKP rom it doesn't work properly, sometimes video output without audio and sometimes only audio output...
The UI output doesn't work
EDIT: I don't really know if this will solve MHL on cm9 but here here is the commit from codeworkx about HDMI some hours ago

Didn't you already ask this question in the Wanam v13 thread?
Twice?
EDIT to add: I also did a search for "MHL" in that thread, and in addition to your two posts, there are over 20 other posts either inquiring about MHL and whether or not it works, and a large number of posts that report that it DOESN'T work on this ROM.
If you want MHL be guaranteed to work, flash a stock Samsung firmware. Custom ROMs will have varying degrees of this functionality - some will work partially, some will work completely. But only a stock Samsung firmware is guaranteed to work with 100% certainty, barring hardware issues.

Just flash another ROM and see if it's a wanam issue.
As some of the posters mentioned it is a rom related thing.
MHL will usually only work with Samsung based roms. I can confirm that XXLSJ Biftor 4.7 JB and NeatROM 4.1 XXLS8 both work with MHL.
I've had some other roms in the past work but I they're not JB as you are requesting.
Some roms will not do the mirroring but work with video only.
no wanam for the OP.
Or no MHL.
Or whatever.

[Q] mhl mirror issue

I have a galaxy s2 rooted with pacman 4.1.2 rom. I have a samsung monitor so I have a mhl direct connect straight to the monitor.
My problem is that when I connect the phone it will only show videos and some apps, but wont mirror at all while in menus or some apps. It usually shows a frozen image of what was first on the screen the instant it was connected but nothing after that.
am I able to get a full mirror of my phone to my monitor? is there something I can change or an app that will help?
(thanks in advance... ive spent the last few days trying to research this problem!)
You need to use a stock ROM for full mhl support as Samsung refuses to give us exynos source code. If you want an aosp style stock ROM, then try chameleon look at my signature for link

that's a real shame, only downside i've found from using custom roms so far.
so I should just choose any samsung base ROM???
thanks for your advice!
Yep you can use any ROM with Samsung base. Its worth looking at xposed framework as well it allows for stock ROMs to be modded with no flashing and a particularly interesting module is the per app DPI one

Cant watch galaxy s2 on tv with MHL cable

Hi,
I bought a MHL cable for galaxy S2.
When I plug it into the phone and into the HDMI input on tv I cant see my phone at all only black screen.
Ofcourse Ive connected the usb to the tv to give it power and I also tried to conncet it to an Iphone charger still nothing..
Ive checked that the Hdmi on tv is the right channel.
Last thing:
I have ICEBULLET V4+ ROM if it helps.
What can I do?
Thanks!

The MHL cable only works with Samsung stock roms or custom roms based on stock.
Mine is working fine with stock XWLSD & Apolo kernel.

can you give me a link to that rom and kernal please?
The kernel I use:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-t2291756
I am using Apolo_4.13_Regular-TWRP.
For the rom I suggest you find out what rom is latest official rom for your country/phone (in my country XWLSD is latest official rom).
If you want custom rom then search in the I9100 development threads for stock based custom rom and verify it has MHL support.

i9300 HDMI support

Hello friends.
I want to convert my old i9300 galaxy s3 to media box for watch movies,series,football matches etc. I got hdmi connection kit and working fine with stock rom. My problem is
Kit kat getting old. Anybody recommend me newest roms (6.0 or 7.1) which hdmi working. Also mouse doesn't work. It will be good if my mouse work. Bluetooth mouse maybe work I'll try.
Thanks for your help.
I think you'll struggle. Stock firmware is the way to go for all share, not sure if mhl works on custom roms but I know all share won't.
It is looks like stock based roms only option.
Currently I'm using Blekota Note4 rom 4.4.4 working fine.
Lineage Os 7.1 also working good but no MHL suppurt.
I guess it is impossible if samsung not give mhl driver.
thanks for answer.
