Lag when playing N64oid via HDMI to TV - HTC Droid DNA

When I play N64oid via MHL to HDMI to TV with wireless Bluez IME Wiimote controller I get FPS lag to the TV. My input takes about 1 second to go to the TV. Would it help if I plugged the AC adapter in the MHL cord when using HDMI? Should I turn down the FPS or something in the emulator?

Bump :'(

Bump. Anyone have similar issue or a solution?
I tried plugging in the AC adapter and still the lag.

My phone will lag really bad when mhl is connected in general. Not sure what it is .

Lowering your FPS would make your experience worse as far as lag. Maybe it's a problem with the cable connection

I'm not familiar with MHL cables. I know that with HDMI Monster make some high bandwidth ones, though the usefulness of it is questionable. Are there certain types of MHL that have slower transfer speeds that could affect this? I bought mine from Monoprice.com which has cheap stuff.

HDMI Out via MHL Adapter from T-Mobile

So, I ordered the mhl adapter for the sensation from t-mobile on Monday so that I would have it when I got the phone. Well, got the phones on Wednesday and the adapter didn't show till today, so poor planning on my part. I attached a pic of my invoice with the product number for reference.
Anyway, I can say that the adapter works great and displays the full ui from the phone to the tv perfectly. It scales nicely in landscape and you can hardly see any lag in the phone or HDMI out. It's always fun playing angry birds on a plasma screen. Also audio is sent to the tv nicely, angry birds with surround sound is pretty sweet. The extent of my testing is with angry birds and the phone ui, but I'm sure I'll find some more purposeful uses for it in the future.
Something I didn't like about it though. You HAVE TO have the charger plugged in, or you will not get HDMI out. You can plug them in any order that you like, but if there is no charger connected, you will not get HDMI out.
I'm sure someone will fix this once we're rooted, but It's kind of annoying right now. I'm also sure there's a good reason for it to be this way, likely because the battery won't last long sending out hd. I'll just have to get a new tv that supports mhl so I won't have to run two cables, yeah, that's a good excuse to get a new tv, right?
Edit: Here's a link to the T-Mobile store,
http://find.t-mobile.com/controller?N=0&Ntk=primary&Ntx=mode+matchpartialmax&Ntt=supa37117
Pick Sensation 4G and then scroll down to Data, it should be in there.
Edit: Actually, you'll have to go back and pick HTC, then Sensation, then Data. Otherwise it doesn't show up for some reason.

Right on, good to hear that HTC hasn't blocked a bunch of content from being outputted like they did with the old Evo.
MHL doesnt support 3d currently. Maybe in revision 2.0 with "hopefully" a firmware update needed instead of new hardware.
But from what I saw online it should only be able to output 2d.
question?i have a 3d samsung led tv that requires glasses,is there anyway to view pics or videos with my evo 3d?

if the MHL plugs into the Micro-USB and so does the charger, then how can you plug in the charger and the MHL at the same time?

If your TV has DLNA support, then yea. Or you can use a PS3 via DLNA, too. I'm not sure of the Xbox has DLNA support, though.

I know this is OT, but I picked up a nice media player a few days ago (had to replace my older Argosy HV335T), and this thing is perfect with DLNA (they just call it UPNP, there is no actual DLNA option on it). Been streaming quite a bit from my EVO 3D already with no delay or lag on it.

So you still need a micro hdmi cable in addition to the mhl cable? I thought the point of it was to reduce the amount of cables you used, not increase

No, no need for the micro hdmi cable from the Evo 4G. The adapter uses a standard hdmi cable. What you DO need is the micro-USB charge cable to plug into the appropriate port on the adapter.
I have both of those np, got my micro hdmi cable from monoprice
Just fyi pulled pictures on to my pc....was able to open them and using red/cyan glasses to view on 2d monitor and 2d panisonic plasma worked great....havn't played with video yet...will keep you updated
Just literally got mine in the mail. Didn't think T-Mobile would ship it via parcel post with $5.99 standard shipping (I expected at least first class. Way to be cheap about it T-Mobile). Should have opted for overnight since I ordered it last Wednesday and was hoping to get it by Friday or Saturday.
Overall pretty impressive. NetFlix, Green Hornet and everything else I've tried will output to the HDTV I'm a little bit annoyed that you MUST plug in power for it to work. I understand the MHL standard isn't available on any TV yet, but I didn't think power was a requirement with the adapter. Not a huge issue, but still wishing they went with microHDMI.
Only thing I've noticed is with Hulu+ when installing a permission was set to block HDMI, but since I am not able to stream any videos because of an "incompatible device" I can't test it. Can't wait for root though so I can really have fun with CM7 and HDMI mirroring

HDMI Cable quick review

Just received my HDMI cable (http://electroniccrap.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=&products_id=27)from electronicCrap, it works perfectly. It also works as a DVI cable for connecting to business projectors (without sound of course) with a small adapter such as this: http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Unlimited-ADP-3780-Female-Adapter/dp/B0018QTWH2
Great product if you need to do presentations or anything. Just be aware that most apps are fairly low resolution (ie will look pixelated) even if the tablet is outputting a full 1080p signal.
The only minor issue is the connector to the gTab, which is a bit bulkier than what is pictured on his site. This could be a problem with some cases, but it works well with mine (the FUSE).
Update 7/23:
-Cable works great on 1080p monitors and TVs.
-HW accelerated apps display at much higher resolution. Everything else is 1024x600 with poor (pixelated) scaling.
-Cable may not work on 720p TV's.
-May not display HW acclrrated 1080p properly on 720p TV even if other things work
-Audio is stereo only as far as I and others can tell. Does android as a platform even support 5.1?
roberto188 said:
Just my two cents since receiving this cable.
I have successfully used the cable on my...720p TV with a Froyo, Gingerbread, and Honeycomb rom...games designed for the tegra chip look great also...Software decoded movies suffer from ... pixelation. I have not been able to determine if the HDMI cable or the tegra chip for that matter can process and pass 5.1 audio channels, but regular stereo audio works...
...some [720p] TVs can handle the 1080p input and scale it down, while others cannot.
Lastly, playing a 1080p movie will not output to a 720p TV. For one reason or another when I played both Divx and H264 in 720p or other lower resolutions it showed up fine on my TV, however both Divx and h264 1080p movies just displayed a blank screen while they played fine on the display on the gtab.
Hope this helps some people...

Actually the dock is $43 shipped world wide (with CC "welcome").
And beside the HDMI cable you get a supplementary charging solution, stand, 2 USB port and LAN port.
I got this cable, but it is not working for me. I have a 720p plasma and am wondering if the Gtab output does not work with 720p TVs. I know the Gtab is detecting the HDMI connection because the sound goes off on the Gtab. But on the TV, all I get is a blank screen saying no signal.
Information to add
Just my two cents since receiving this cable.
I have successfully used the cable on my 50 inch Samsung 720p TV with a Froyo, Gingerbread, and Honeycomb rom. Any graphics that are NOT accelerated by the tegra chip looks VERY pixelated, so bad its almost unusable. However watching movies on a Froyo rom using the hardware decoder look VERY NICE! Also games designed for the tegra chip look great also, ie. Riptide rush. Software decoded movies suffer from the same horrible pixelation. I have not been able to determine if the HDMI cable or the tegra chip for that matter can process and pass 5.1 audio channels, but regular stereo audio worked on my TV. If anyone knows if 5.1 channel audio can be passed I'd love to know.
Additionally, I could NOT get the cord to work on my 32 inch Samsung. I think some TVs can handle the 1080p input and scale it down, while others cannot.
Lastly, playing a 1080p movie will not output to a 720p TV. For one reason or another when I played both Divx and H264 in 720p or other lower resolutions it showed up fine on my TV, however both Divx and h264 1080p movies just displayed a blank screen while they played fine on the display on the gtab.
Hope this helps some people and I hope we can get some graphics acceleration for Honeycomb soon...heard someone has a Notion Ink kernel with full graphics acceleration, can that be ported to the gtab?
updated op. cable works great for me on 1080 screens. yes, 30 is a lot for only hdmi. but it is compact and easy to carry compared to the dock. basically we are paying for the r&d costs. I am just glad this thing exists.
Does the cable work with honeycomb roms? And does the power have to be plugged in for the cable to work? I'm having no luck with video showing up on my tv with the HDMI cable hooked up. I running gtabcomb atm.

Well, it is about what you would expect from WVGA stretched to a 1080p screen. Not bad, not great.
So it will record 1080p but outputs it at 800x480 via the hdmi? If that is the case then that's extremely disappointing.
I think it changes resolution when playing video. Notice how the screen blanks out briefly before playback begins? I think that's the resolution switchover. At least that's what happens on my international SGS2...
I want one.. but is it worth it? lol
just wanna verify that it mirrors your screen, correct? so its fully operational while outputting?
Complete mirror of screen. Can confirm movie playback is in 1080p. Fully functional.

How do you mirror your screen? I have the phone connected to the TV through this Micro USB - HDMI adapter, but I see nothing on the TV when I play a video.
UPDATE: I think I answered my own question by reading other threads: you need to actually separately power the adapter through the USB port on its side. That's a bummer, so you actually need a separate USB power source!

Ya mine is being blocked as well. I bought the OEM Samsung one to watch my media hub stuff. Kinda disappointing. As stated before if you start the playback before you plug it in it works quite well.
So I just picked up an adapter locally and while it works just fine, I'm not sure it's working as it should with regards to charging. If I simply have the adapter plugged in and then plugged into the wall, it charges very very very slowly. If I actually plug in the hdmi cable and do something like stream a video, buh bye battery life. It drains crazy fast.
This adapter from Amazon, does the charger help keep the battery at around the same level while in use or do you see it drop a good bit as well?
Oh and with regards to MediaHub, whether I start a video before hooking up this adapter or after, I still get the same error on my tv about protection, etc.

In regards to charging this phone charges slow and if your using it watching video it will just barley keep up. The phone seems to use almost as much juice as it get from the charger as your watching video.

S3 MHL only output 1080p 24hz which makes game choppy

Anyone having issue with the original samsung galaxy s3 EPL-3FHU MHL to HDMI outputing in 1080p at 24Hz.
I currently have a 60" 1080P LCD and a 47" 1080P LCD, when connected with the MHL to HDMI, it will only output to [email protected] which play video fine,
but game or menu have that lag/choppy look to it.
I did try it on a buddy 32" 720P LCD and the MHL output it to 720p @60Hz which display game without the choppiness.
Also test it on a 24" 1080P PC Monitor and MHL output 720p to it. Is there any way to change the MHL configuration so that it will output 720p @60Hz onto my big screen 60" and 47" or even a different Adaptor that will only do 720p.
I heard you can use a samsung galaxy s2 MHL with a 5 to 11 pin adapter, anyone have this combination to test what it output at on a 1080P LCD.
If that s2 MHL with adapter works, I will return this s3 MHL and go that route.
I can only get 1080i on all my devices, all my TVs / Monitors are capable of 1080p 60hz but there was no way of making the S3 output anything except 1080i seems it's quite buggy!!!
If it just could be more improved :S No possible settings on the phone, that sucks. I really wanted to choose the resolution myself. Samsung should work on this problem.1080i sucks on my tv, 720p is 1000 times better.
EDIT: Lolz, wtf?? Just tried to connect to my PC monitor, only get 576p, my monitor is 1680x1050p. And the best thing, no way to configurate the output signal :S
We need an app, or a point in the settings. Only then we can get the max out of our superphone.
And I never hard of that thing, that someone got a galaxys2 mhl connector working with a galaxys3.
What Hz or refresh rate are you guys getting with your 1080i, I have seen a picture of someone showing a 1080p @60Hz with a galaxy s2 MHL adapter. The S2 MHL adapter by itself won't work. You will need a samsung 5 to 11 pin adapter which connect in between the s3 phone and the s2 MHL.
guys, I actually didnt know it, but I have a 11-pin mhl-hdmi-adaptor, to be exactly, this one:
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B0080CXSOU/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
But I cant connect more devices over the micro-usb slot. I thought that it is possible with this connector, cause it supports USB OTG and MHL at the same time, so what is up with this ****?
Wikipedia said:
11-pin MHL-USB Connector
The Samsung Galaxy S III uses a connector that is similar to the original 5-pin MHL-USB connector, but it uses 11-pins in order to achieve a few functional improvements over the 5-pin design.
It supports the use of USB and MHL simultaneously (note that the new Samsung 11-pin MHL-HDMI adapter also has a USB-OTG port).
Samsung’s Galaxy S III can power the MHL-HDMI adapter. Although this can theoretically also be done with the standard 5-pin micro-USB connector, the Galaxy S III's 11-pin connector is believed to be the first smartphone that supports this functionality.

no one more news or gadgets since?
I also have choppy output with my S3 MHL adaptor. I wonder if there's a way to force the refresh rate somehow?
Has anyone tried overclocking to boost the frame rate? I've had the same problem as everyone else when trying to watch 1080 video on a 46" 1080 TV, but it only skips once every second or two on random intervals. It's JUST enough skipping that you know something isn't right, but almost can't put your finger on it. I may try overclocking to boost it in the next few days. If I do I'll post back with results. For reference, I'm using an ATT GS3 rooted with the stock TW ROM.
I just get 1080I on my 1080P sony Led 55" and 1080I on my Dell 1080P monitor 24"
I rather get 720P than 1080I, but i cannot change it
Better but still an issue.
I just installed the Hyperdrive rom with the kernel that can overclock on my SCH-I535 S3 and tried the official 11 pin Samsung hdmi adapter and was getting 1080 at 30hz witch is better then before. Also my phone was syncing to 30hz. Before it was 1080 at 24hz and the phone was syncing to 60hz witch caused every thing to look extremely choppy. Now games are playable but still could be much better if we had 720 at 60hz.
I'm not sure what changed from the stock rom to Hyperdrive but it seems that the output can be changed some how.
Also I seen that the HTC One S has a kernel (ZeroMHL) that can force there hdmi output to 720 but I don't know if the same method could be applied here.
Edit:
It seems that ZeroMHL fixed the kernel by finding key words and changing the limitations. As a professional I'm a video game programmer but I'm going to try and see if I can modify kernel source to get 720 60hz. If I can do it ill post the kernel / source.

Question HDMI Output

Has anyone been able to get HDMI video output working via a usb-c dongle? I have tried three different dongles that work on every other phone I own and the display does nothing. Hope it's not disabled in the firmware etc.
Usb 2.0
I can confirm that IS possible to output HDMI from Find N but only if you use an DisplayLink adapter. I tried some USB Type-C adapters with HDMI (I have 2 and use then on a Samsunt Tab S6) and they didn't work on Find N. It's possible to use the USB ports but HDMI doesn't work.
For the DisplayLink adapter, I tested with an Targus model DOCK110 and after installing the DisplayLink program from Playstore, I was able to output via HDMI. Also, the USB ports are working. The only problem is that you cannot charge your Find N, using this adapter. Also, you will need a USB Type-C to USB type A adapter with this dock.
Ok but displaylink is ****. You can't really use it. Huge lag low quality. The same as wireless output

When I tested it, it didn't look too bad. Of course, there is some lag but not too much. If you watching a Youtube movie, it's not very bad; I almost didn't noticed any difference. But if you want to play games on the big TV and if it's a fast pace game, surely you will have some difficulty.
