You need the mhl adapter. I picked one up off Amazon for 8

Make sure you get an adaptor that is for either a Note 2 or a Galaxy S3, the older adaptors that look identical will not work with either of these phones.
I had an adaptor for my Rezound that looks exactly the same plug wise etc but it won't work for the newer Samsung phones.

This is correct. Samsung went with an 11 pin micro USB-HDMI MHL for the Galaxy SIII and the Galaxy Note II. This allows for simultaneous HDMI out and usage of OTG input. Unfortunately the official Samsung MHL adapter doesn't even have the OTG port lol meaning the improvement going to 11 pin gives, they don't even give to you.
Oh well, still highly recommend going with an official cable. I don't trust the 3rd party products as I always had problems with them, especially when it came to MHL.

I agree with that 100%
I can confirm what you are saying here. I have been unable to use my OTG and HDMI out at the same time. I'm guessing your option is to get the smart dock if you need to use them both simultaneously. I have not found a MHL adapter with the proper passthrough or vice versa with the OTG (even tried the "with usb power" variant)

Yes and no. I think they just didn't bother to check the specifics of compatibility.

Are two that sell the one directly made for the Flyer using the extMicroUSB that it uses. The thing I am curious about is... if it's MHL, will a normal MHL cable work? Like the one for the Sensation?
Also the phonearena review actually tested this function and it seems to work fine:
http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/HTC-Flyer-Review_id2747/page/3
Nice thanks for the links
Apparently it can use a normal MHL cable. Here is a review of them where they use the adapter from the Samsung Infuse 4G. If you check out the video part it also shows that the flyer is capable of mirroring automatically. The output resolutions are 480p and 720p. I suggest checking it out because it's neat to see the flyer connecting to an HDTV
The fact that it can use a standard MHL adapter/cable is nice as it means options as far as pricing goes:

Thanks bro
This is great news. I bought a flyer not sure if I was gonna keep it. But the mhl cord seeled the deal. I love it already and I don't even own the pen yet.
Just wondering if all MHL adapters are the same. Meaning, can I use a generic non-HTC adapter on my Rezound?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
I believe so. Someone posted that a monoprice one worked on his GSII. I know that is a different phone but it is likely that HTC hasn't blocked generic ones if samsung didn't.

The monoprice adapter works for my Rezound.
Thx for the help, just order a 10$ mhl adapter. After this bad boy set me back 600$ i'm trying to squeeze all the accessories I can outta this weeks paycheck.
I'll let you guys know how it goes when I get it.
The thunderbolt/EVO 3D htc mhl adapter works.
How can I control my phone with out touching it?
(Watching netflix and don't want to get up every time)
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
The Monoprice MHL adapter works like a charm. You can't use your HTC cable in the adapter though. So pick up a long enough 5 pin micro usb cable( I am using a 6' wish I would have bought bigger) and long enough HDMI cable for your set up so you don't have to stand next to your TV operate the phone and watch it on the TV.
to further add to the question, if you're going through the MHL->HDMI to your telie, will it also keep your phone charged?
Yes you plug the adapter to the phone and the wall

Yeah its a lot going on for our phone to display on a TV. My wife's Bionic has hdmi out, that is so easy! Just bought a hdmi to micro hdmi cable from monoprice for 3 bucks for my wife's phone. The Rezound looks like a octopus just to display to the TV!
Where u guys getting the monoprice MHL? Amazon? I haven't connected any phone to my tv since my original EVO days. Would love to do it with this one. Thanks fellas

No, the video parts of the NFL app will not work. I have tried it and when you try to access video content, the screen you are connected to view blank.
Thats weird. I thought u can view anything that's on your phone... Even the home screen!? Is there anything else that doesn't work through the mhl?

I recieved mine from Monoprice, works great. But it HAS to be connected to power (charger or USB both work) to function, not just if you want the phone to charge while using the adapter.
What I did was use a short HDMI cable, short micro USB cable plugged into one of my TVs USB ports for power, and then mounted the adapter to the back of my TV with velco. I then use a micro usb extension cable to connect the adapter to my phone, cutting down a TON on the octopus effect. And I can always disconnect the adapter to take it with me somewhere.
Is this the adapter everyone is buying, its $14 not $10 so want to make sure I'm not missing anothr one on their site. http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8675&seq=1&format=2
So I plugged my note in to my Samsung plasma tv. I used the mhl adapter that came with my infuse which I used with my infuse and it worked all the time. But it is not working with the note. Am I missing a setting or something? I am rooted with da g OC kernel but I haven't seen anything in that thread about this. So anyone have the same issue or could help me out?
Will gladly hit the thanks button fer ya!

Did not work for me until I plugged in the power into MHL. Then everything worked but the quality on the big 42" screen was not that good.
I have not ordered one yet, but I've seen other Note users say this PNY cable works good. It's the one I intend to order soon.

Thank you for responses but I did that as well. Just forgot to mention it. As far as I know mhl will never work without direct power supply. As I said this worked on my infuse and I have set it up the same way but no worky. Can anyone confirm they have it working?

The screen only supports slightly above 720p so I wouldn't count on it handling 1080 externally.

I think it will output 1080p video files just like Samsung's larger tablets and play them in true HD on a capable TV.
From what I've seen, MHL adapters are a bit of a crapshoot for the Note. I have one made by CableMatters that seems to work well, but sometimes it inexplicably doesn't.
I don't need it for YouTube or anything but I use my phone to dl californication from demonoid. Be nice and easy to just plug the note in and fly but what I've been doing is using es file exp to drop the video file on my network HDD and then stream from there to my ps3. Is there a more efficient way of doing this? (Besides paying for showtime of course...LOL)

I saw somewhere there was a process. I think it was to plug in the hdmi, plug in the power, then plug into device. I saw it worked for the poster but i may have the order off.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
I agree, try it using the following steps.. HDMI from TV into MHL Adapter / Power from Wall into MHL / MHL Adapter into phone. if you hear the beep that the phone is charging, does not mean it made a connection with the HDMI side. if you get it connected there will be a 2 / 3 second delay between the beep and you will see something on your TV, also I have USB debugging OFF, seems to work better with MHL.
Edit: With my Adapter, I do not have to reboot the phone with the adapter in for it to work, it will auto detect whenever I hotplug it. I do have to mess with the connector plugging into the phone, seems it can be plugged in / detect power, but not HDMI, (Wiggle it

It should be absolutely fine as it is either the adapter or phone itself that controls the current.

It should just work fine and relatively safe. However, I bought some cheap cables on eBay and it can't charge at all!! Transfering of data is no problem but charging is a problem. I dont know why but I assume its just some poor quality cables.

There wont be any problem.. i have been using my old htc cable too cos its longer..lol... on both my note and s3.. so no problems at all.

I tried a cheap USB cable that works fine as a data cable and can handle 2.0 speeds but used on S3 and after 8 hours only gave around a 30% charge because looks like the cheap cable must not have been able to handle the 1000mah current.
I use my old HTC cable and adapter to charge my sgs3 works fine. Got a cheap extended cable to use with my original Samsung desktop dock, but that takes ages to charge my phone.

they probably don't let you output video from the app because they don't want you to be able to give out your log in info to anybody with a smartphone who then no longer even needs a cable box lol. they want you to use the box for video output, and your phone for viewing on your phone screen only.
im not saying there isn't a workaround, I'm just saying if you find a workaround you can essentially sell your log in info lol.
