Ensure you are on a stock rom......then check on another TV at a friends place maybe,,,it maybe the cable/adapter or your tv..find out out which one ....

Yeah. I'm on stock Rom. Was wondering if it's my tv that doesn't support. Anyone has idea was the resolution the phone output?

My first guess would be that the tv is only capable of 576p

HDMI out to TV

My computer went down from a bad storm. So for now my only internet is my phone. Can someone kindly tell me how you get your phone to play on the TV so if you use the internet on your phone to watch something like on Hulu it can show on your TV. Thanks for any help.

Btw, mhl won't work on ICS, sound will, but not video. GB it's great

S3 as webcam

Hi my pc webcam seems really slow and lags loads. Is there a way I can use my s3 as the camera and my pc monitor for the screen?
Or is the best way to use the Skype app on my phone and get a mhl cable to my tv?

Note video mirroring to double din DVD player

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...

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.

will try
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....

Movies from phone onto tv?

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.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
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
