Hi all,
Can someone help please:
I would like to view my videos off my s3 to my tv and basically mirror my phone screen.
I dont have a wireless tv and have been told to buy a MHL HDMI HDTV Adapter, do I need any applications to go with this to mirror my screen?
Thanks in advance

This is a question, that is very important for me.
...
You see, this SGSII phone thing'y is HOT as HELL. It is everything I want in a phone... BUT STOP...
...
NO HDMI out?
...
The original SGS has one and I really don't understand why they took that away from the SGSII.
...
I heard that there is a way to get HDMI mirroring with a software and a micro-USB to HDMI cable! Is that purely a software question or must there be a hardware thing to?
...
Please... respond to this, this is very important.
An MHL hardware connection is needed (look up MHL in wikipedia), fortunately in the official Samsung specs from the press release it says that it has MHL. A video from MWC from someone representing the MHL consortium also says the SGS2 will be the first device supporting MHL.
I'll feel better once I see someone demo it, but Samsung have officially announced MHL capability for the SGS2.

You think Mobile High-definition Link??
Yes... I want to see a demo to. It would be nice to have this mirroring capability.
Something does confuse me about MHL, if you have a TV which isn't MHL compatible and you don't want or don't have the adapter, can you use a microUSB-to-HDMI cable and just not have it charge at the same time?
doh...

It says you can use it without the adapter, but your device won't be charged.

My friend you can use with any HDTV but you dont have charge of your battery device except if you buy an adapter MHL to charge and transmit signal on the same time. But how last your battery can provide of energy?
In my Xperience In my IPad I see 3 Movies via Wireless Apple TV and my battery show 30 % remain. In the case of SGSII at least You have enough power to see a movie with Screen turned Off (SGSII)
!?
Are there any news about a mirroring capability on the SGS II?
...
I've been searching the net for some confirmation, that there is going to be a possibility playing games on the SGS II connected to a flat screen TV, but couldn't find anything to confirm that!
...
Are there any news???
surely if this was possible, it would have been all over the exhibitions and videos of it would exist?

Or the SW used for demo phones didn't have the mirroring properly implemented yet and the option was not included in menus.
EDIT:
I have not seen any demos where SGS2 is connected to a TV via MHL/HDMI.
Is there any previews or videos where they use that ?
No videos yet, the question of whether mirroring is on offer remans in the air.
!
Funny... cuz... The first SGS had mirroring, if this one has it not, than it is a kind a regress!
...
Sorry 4 my English.
Yep, I'd be very disappointed if this can't do mirroring, I love using it with my SGSI and would find it hard to part with (use my SGSI on the tele with BT keyboard and mouse, excellent experience, only problem is only SD-out).
Hi guys,
1) I bought Nokia USB OTG HOST cable like this, and it works very well
2) I also bought Samsung Galaxy S2 HDMI adapter like this,
to try on Sony Tablet S.
Unfortunatelly (as I thought) - its not working.
So anyone who thinks about buying one - don't buy it(for now).
Maybe someone knows if other adapter would work?
Maybe HDMI support via microUSB port could be added
in software, of course after we will get root?

I too would also like to know if this would be possible. If i root my Sony S tablet would that help,or there is a custom rom i could flash to my Sony Tablet to enable the use of a micro usb-to-HDMI cable for video/audio output to my 42"LCD TV. I only ask bcuz none of my TV's are wifi/DLNA capable & Id like to use the Sony tablet for streaming Netflix to my TV's. I recently upgraded to the Epic 4G Touch/Galaxy S II & i would rather use my tablet for streaming than my Galaxy S II. Thanks for any info
It would be pretty cool to play a nice graphics game on the Tablet S with it displaying on the 42 monitor!

I think tablet will not give hd resolusion from netflix. I think it will be the same as on galaxy s ii.

Folks, this tablet does not have HDMI out. Even when it's possible to root it, that won't help.

Galaxy S2 doesnt have HDMI out, and work with adapter. How can you be so sure that its not possible?
Hi Condi,
While the Galaxy S2 doesn't have an HDMI socket like you'd have on your TV, it does have the electonics required to do HDMI over microUSB. Unfortunately the Sony doesn't have this because Sony decided to use DLNA instead, mainly because their TV's have this functionality.
I did quite a bit of research on this subject before buying this tablet and confirmed it with Sony UK.
Sadly it's pretty typical of Sony to build their gadgets to work best with their own devices. Another example of this practice is the proprietory power connector that means you have to use their £30 power adaptor, which is pretty pricey for a mobile power adaptor if you ask me. It also means there is currently no car charger for it, which is extremely annoying too.
Hello guys,
I wonder if there is a HDMI adapter (100% working) for Lumia 920 ? If possible, from eBay, cause I need a seller who sends to Brazil, where i live.
Thanks for the atention,
Arthur

You need what's called MHL Adapter, it converts the USB to HDMI, I found these on eBay, and many do ship to Brazil-
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=MHL+adapter&_nkwusc=MHL+Adaptr&_rdc=1
This looks like a good deal, and free worldwide shipping to Brazil from Hong Kong!

As far as I am aware, Windows Phone does not support MHL.
Thank you all.. Now i have to know if MHL adaptar works. I dont want to buy something useless for my cellphone xD

You might see if Amazon has them, then you could always do a return if it didn't work.

I am pretty sure Windows Phone does not support MHL
Thank you again, you all.
So, there insn`t any reason to buy a MHL adapter, i guess.
Sad, i wish i could use my L920 and some HDMI adapter.
Does the 920 even have HDMI output? I thought they so called HDMI was on it's screen at it's resolution? Seeing as how it has no HDMI port like most devices that HDMI output.

Most devices that support HDMI out nowadays do it through an MHL-Adapter that you plug into the USB port. The reason is that they safe on space for an additional port.
WP8 does NOT support MHL/HDMI-out so far so no: don't buy an adapter, it won't work.
Thank you all, i wont buy (sadly).

If you are just playing media, you should try DNLA.

If you have a network at home and an Xbox 360 on it, then you could play the phones content on the 360 connected to your TV.
Hello,
First off, I hope that this is in the correct forum. If not, I apologize in advance.
I am looking to buy an Xperia Z2 tablet today. I want to use the PS4 remote play feature, but I want to hook the tablet up to me HDTV via HDMI. I also would like to use an ethernet adapter, so I can get smoother gameplay when on a network.
Am I able to use an OTG Y cable to achieve this? I have a mini-USB to HDMI adapter and I have a USB 3.0 x 3 + Gigiabyte etherent hub. Is there anyone that has any experience with this or, perhaps, point me in the right direction?
Thank you in advance for all of your help, advice and suggestions.

the safestbet is to use the sony mhl adapter.
Hello there!
I'm into a little project and maybe somebody can help. First of all: if this thread is in a wrong place, forgive me.
So, the idea:
Connect my Galaxy Mega (I9200) into a smart tv (Sony Bravia) and use Kodi (ex-XBMC).
This part is done. I got a MHL cable, who connect into HDMI and one USB port to give energy power to my smart, and so keep my baterry always full.
And it's working beautifuly, in full 1080.
So.. This is the hard part:
I have one external harddisk (1TB M3) that I REALLY wanna connect on my samsung too. Yes, I know, it's only one USB port on my Galaxy, and that's the deal.
I wanna do that because I wanna my galaxy like a server too. So I'm gonna download my video using the Android into the HD and show it on my TV.
Any ideas?
I really don't wanna have my PC always on with HD connected and sharing.
IF ANYONE have ideas to share my HD from the TV (SONY) or from the Home Theater (Samsung) it's could be amazing too.
Thanks thanks thanks thanks thanks lol
