Can I use a mhl cable to watch movies on tv with sound. Do i have to have some special setup?

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

Might want to delete this so people don't mistake it for the right answer.
As the others stated, Netflix works fine going right to your TV with an HDMI cable meant for our phone.
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.

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.

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....

I've never ran my phone to my TV. What cord from Radio Shack do I need to go get?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
you need an mhl adapter (micro usb to hdmi) search online it is cheaper.
Lol, RapeShack is more like it. They need to hand out free lube at the door.
I use mhl adaptor. It came with infuse 4g.

So seeing as this phone has no hdmi output I was wondering if an mhl adapter would work so I could watch movies on my TV? I know about the HTC media link but I really don't want to shell out that much money to use that. So has anyone tried using an mhl adapter with this phone? Does it work?

The Rocketfish MHL adapter from Best Buy works fine for me.
