Hello everyone. I bought a mhl cable but it doesnt seem to be working properly. Im running Rootbox ics v1.8 with latest siyah kernel. I connected everything as it was suppossed to be connected, even the charger. My wifi signal drops and the image in the tv dissapears every few seconds and sometimes it just freezes. Phone is working perfectly as always but seems like the tv's image can't keep up with what's going on. if i watch a video that i have in my phone it works fine, but once i start doing anything else, like browsing the web, tv screen just goes black or it just freezes. This is really frustrating. I also tried turning airplane mode on but that didn't help. I also tried to overclock my phone but that didn't help as well. Any help would be appreciated.

MHL doesn't work for mirroring the display on any ROMs that are not based on Samsung stock.
RootBox is not based on Samsung stock, so it is subject to the same issues and limitations that all other AOSP and AOKP ROMs suffer from. This is one of those issues.
If you want MHL to work for stuff other than videos, then you will have to go to a stock firmware, or a ROM based on Samsung stock.

Thank You so much. I just downloaded stock rom and put it as a secondary rom and now i just have to switch roms in order to enjoy my tv experience. Thanks!
I'm having a problem. I have a galaxy sII, but even watching a video in 1080, the image is horrible.
I use version 2.3.6 Gingerbread
UHKI1 I9100
2.6.35.14 kernel N.E.A. K-x 1.4.2
May be the kernel problem?

So I installed it last night and it works great for the most part. The main issues I'm experiencing are the back and search hardware buttons do not work (home is back) nor do they light up, no incoming or out going sound on voice calls, and short battery life. After work I typically have about 70% battery left, today the phone died as I left. And I didn't check to see if the GPS, BT, and Cameras work. i heard video recording doesn't work on the international SGS2 with 4.0.3
anyone else tried it yet?
Here is a link to the Galaxys2root.com video where I found the link to the file.
What rom?
What ROM did you install? I looked at the ones listed under the AT&T GS2, and the only one close to ICS was the ICScreweD rom, which is not ICS.
Well, here's hoping that we get some ICS love soon...

You installed an international rom on your ATT phone. Hopefully you're able to flash it back to normal and a boot loader didn't come with it. Good luck.
PS
Red5 is probably 3 seconds away from locking this lol

this is for the i9100 int'l SGS2 btw, NOT FOR AT&T I777

He installed one of the leaked samsung roms. It is for the international version and so it will have the softkey and call problems like he described.
It is obviously not something you would use as a daily driver, but it is fun to see what is on the way sometimes.
Thanks for not saying what ROM it was or thats its an international version so that other people that dont/cant read will flash and then we have 65146510484 threads started because their phone dosent work.
So to answer the OP question: No, because this rom isnt made for our phone... which is why about 40% your phone didnt work.
Thread closed.
I was running CM9 nightlies, which worked great. Then I flashed back to an official ROM and updated to the official ICS. Now I'm getting frequent disconnects when listening to music via bluetooth audio (bluetooth speaker dock, in-car bluetooth, etc). I never once had this issue with CM9 nightlies.
Anyone else experience similar issues?

I am too. Never had a problem with Gingerbread but just upgraded to the official ICS and it's freaking annoying.
I'll probably be switching back to CM9 nightlies. Even in its pre-beta state, it seems far more reliable than the official ICS ROM.
I do really like Samsung's music player app, though. I only wish I could install that on CM9 somehow.
If you are having BT disconnects on ICS,
Try plugging in the charger while testing it. The phone won't enter deep sleep while charging.
Some of the BT devices are not playing well with ICS.
My BT under ICS is about the same as under GB (all stock) except that my headset pause/play button no longer works under ICS.

Well, CM9 is ICS and I had no issues with my BT devices. It's something unique to the official ROM.
Maybe there's a way to modify the BT/sleep behavior on the official ROM, but at that point why not just use a custom ROM that works better?

I started having trouble with BT disconnects a few months back when I began testing Shostock2 and AOKP custom roms. I think custom roms are great, I just prefer Shostock2.
The charging cable plugged in work around will be my best suggestion for non-rooted ICS with BT disconnect issues.
My thread on this is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1609686
I'm still using Tasker to avoid the problem.
Probably something changed in the BT software somewhere...
I'm getting high voltage warnings with the stock ics and once the battery passes 35 percent it drains quickly. If I plug it to charge the phone just gets hot I have to restart to get it to charge

I installed the F1 Galaxy Nexus ROM (ICS 4.0.4) and never had any problems with Bluetooth disconnects. So hopefully it's fixed now. I'm dl'ing the latest ShoStock 4.0.4 and will see if it's fixed as well.
Will Snow Leopards stock AT&T rom located in developers forum restore/provide MHL connection ability?

which ROM does it not work for you with? Also the adaptor needs to be powered by micro usb , and the order that the cables get connected seems to matter. Connect to phone last, trial and error for other two.

I'm on CM 11-20140104-NIGHTLY-e970
Monitor: ACER AL1917W (DVI connection)
Micro USB-DVI adapter: iKross MHL
Connecting LGOG last indicates no connection. I am certain LGOG is powering since screen remains on.
It is why I ask if returning to SnowLeopords stock rom will restore MHL.

You could likely even just use a different AOSP-base rom, no need to go all the way back to 4.1.
I know for a fact that Houstonn's 4.3 PA builds work with MHL, and I believe the official CM10.2 build also work.

I can confirm it is working on Beanstalk 4.4 also , using Samsung MHL that came with Infuse.
Do you know what kernel has MHL support for CyanogenMod?

I installed the Beanstalk 4.4 rom which included the slimkat kernel. The mhl worked. I purchased a rocketfish adapter and plugged it into my hdmi tv and all seemed well. Unfortunately my LGOG started to get very hot. I reverted to my old CM 4.4 with cm kernel and heat problem solved but alas no mhl output.

cm10.2 mhl works. Joy.
Edit: Recent developments suggest I was wrong regarding the 10.2 rom. I reinstalled it and it seems to be working fine. I cannot get my dvi monitor to work but my hdmi tv works great. So I must purchase an hdmi monitor in order to have my LGOG serve as my desktop PC.
My thanks to OMGMatrix for suggesting 10.2 as a solution.
@XDFernando, try the 10.2. I think you will find it easy to get along with.
CM11 now supports mhl
I upgraded from 10.2 to 11 last night and tried connecting to my hdtv and lo-an-behold it mirrored my LGOG, even rotated the view.
I have also not working
CM11 MHL Working
I'm pleased to announce that I have reached my goal of replacing my desktop computer with my LGOG. I use bluetooth mouse and keyboard and connect my LGOG to an $80 LED HDTV via MHL adapter. I was inspired by this blog http://www.livingdigitally.net/2012/02/using-a-mobile-device-as-a-desktop-computer.html. YouTube videos now play through MHL without a problem. My thanks to the CM11 post by shellnut. I'm using the latest CM11 nightlies with the gapps-kk-20140105 and 3.4.0-CM+ kernel. Pretty neat.
I Have SGS2 I9100 and have problems with Bluetooth working when I'm calling. Bluetooth works when I listen music and i can hear touch tones when pressing number before dialing but once i dial the Bluetooth is silent no voice on nothing. I can call and hear people when i call them without Bluetooth.
I have installed following ROMS with same result in the end: Carbon, AOSP Neat, Resurrection remix and Slim kitkat.
I have no idea where the problem lies it seam like every 4.2+ rom has same issue. i have checked my system folder and rw--r--r is there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am also having the same issue. When connecting to my car, bluetooth music works , just the phone doesn't. As a phone call is initiated you can hear sound for a split second then it cuts out. I am currently on the latest Resurrection Remix. I have searched the development forum and see that others have the same problem, but just like this thread, nobody seems to have a solution for it.
Any help would be great
Thanks for your help

Same exact issue. I tried Cyanogenmod, Omnirom, and a couple different versions of each (stable, M build, nightly), and nothing worked. I did a full wipe each time, and that still didn't help. I even tried apps like Mono Bluetooth Router to no avail. I finally went back to stock JB 4.1 since bluetooth is a must for me.
In case it matters, my phone is branded as a I9100M for Bell Canada. It's supposed to be the exact same hardware as the I9100, but could it possibly be slightly different? I see cliff03 is in Canada as well. I can't tell for sure, but it seems like the problem affects some users but not others. Maybe that's why?

Okay, I think I figured it out. While I was testing I flashed a stock I9100 (not I9100M) ROM, and since then my bluetooth is now working on all custom KK roms. This is the I9100 ROM I flashed (I9100XWMS2):

Hi,
I have purchased an MHL cable so when I transfer movies onto my phone I can watch at the girlfriends house however whenever using this rom, it does not work, and all i get is no signal, I tried on a mates phone and it worked perfectly, however he did not have the SOKP rom.
Is there a way to make it work on this rom (as it has the best battery life for me) or do I need to ask the developer? (not enough posts yet)
