they are $30 at sprint's website, you should be able to find cheaper elsewhere online though. i'm waiting for the dock which includes a cable

I too did the same thing searched in amazon for hdmi for evo ordered two cords when i got them they were hdmi to hdmi mini what you need to search is hdmi to hdmi micro.. spent my last couple dollars on the wrong cords.. really only wanted the cords to play psx on my tv turns out it only work on a few selected apps so i wont be purchasing until it works for majority of phone functions

looks like you're looking for the wrong cable. its MICRO not mini. Get a type D(micro) to type A(regular) male cable

Yeah I guess that was my mistake, I didn't know there was a micro. And as for running the psx emu onto the tv, that would be AWESOME! Even just playing the regular Android games Thank you all for your help.

Most Sprint Store's carry them if you don't mind paying around $30.00 for them. I was told all of them carry have them if they can keep them in stock, but i dont know how true that is. That's where i got mine.

I bought 2 off of ebay for like 6 bux each, they work perfectly.

Monoprice will have them in stock on the 13th for 2 or 3 dollars. You are retarded if you pay thirty dollars for that cable.

I bought one of those $6 cables on ebay but it didn't work. I thought my port was bad but I bought one of the molex cables here

and it works perfectly, so +1 for these guys.

I just ordered 2 of the $6 ones Now I just hope more apps get support for the hdmi out so I can play some of the games and emus on my big screen

dont waste your money, get a $3 on ebay from china.
HDMI is HDMI. the build quality doesnt matter. since its digital, it eiter works or not. there is no "better" HDMI unless you needed 50ft of Insulated HDMI

Yeah I originally bought the audio only version but Just ordered the combo so I'd have one less thing to take up my cigarette lighter adapters. Gonna gift the old cable as it still looks and works like brand new. P.S. they are pretty fast shipping wise as well.

They only list the VW and Audi as not Compatible. I think you'll be fine. Either way if it doesn't work it won't be hard to return or resell.

Neat, I will definitely think about getting this

Serves me right to be called a spammer lol. I switched to iPhone with the iPhone 4 and just came back to android for the Galaxy 2. Since I switched everything for iPhone I had to find a way to get my new Galaxy II hooked to all my docks and car kits I spent hundreds on. Buy or do not buy, but I have been hanging around here since 2007 and thought it was about time I contribute.

I haven't had any of that out of the audio only adapter I have. (the one on top) The charging and audio adapter arrives tomorrow hopefully, so I'll let you know after I've had a chance to test.

Well it ended up being at home waiting for me yesterday. I can report that with power and audio I have no feedback or noise in the background. Just clear music. I think those other systems just aren't grounded as well. Hope this helps your decision.

Looking for a micro usb to rca adapter for tv

Hey everyone, I unfortunately don't have an HDTV, so I can't use an MHL adapter. So can anybody recommend to me a good micro USB to RCA adapter that I can use on a TV?

Ummm wow. Uh you can pick up a MHL adapter and maybe try to convert HDMI to VGA (analog signal) then VGA to RCA.
The HDMI to VGA convert the signal from digital to analog required for what your looking to do.
I suggest monoprice for the adapters because it may not work. I think the phone requires some kind of communication from the TV before it will output at all.
Maybe go to radio shack and ask them. They work off commission and usually let you try the parts in the store before you buy it.
LTE EX Galaxy Nexus CM9
Asus Transformer Revolver

I was looking at monoprice and I couldn't seem to find one cable that would do it, and I was hoping that I didnt have to use adapters on adapters to get the job done.
I found this on amazon: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00...&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=463383511&pf_rd_i=915398

but unfortunately it goes from the headphone jack, which I would assume doesnt send out the picture quite as good as from the usb, but hey for less than a buck (canadian) what do i got to loose right?
But I would still like some suggestions on what I could use through the micro usb

Please don't order that you are wasting your money, the phone doesn't support analog out of the headphone jack. Also you can't convert a digital picture to analog via cables. There is no way to go from HDMI to RCA without expensive conversion in which case you should just buy a HD TV.

Damn not the news I was hoping for, thanks though for the insight!

Search Amazon for B0047PDBP0, you've looking for an HDMI to composite (not component) video converter. However, even a cheap one is ~$50 and the quality won't be great even with a good one. You may be better off putting that $50 towards an HDTV. Amazon also has a few cheap 720p models in the $100-150 range.

Really??????

this is true. i tried this one and it only does the audio...no video.

I hate to say it, but after all the crap you need to go from MHL to HDMI to component to composite, you'd be cheaper off with a 20" HDTV from your local electronics store.

there are cheap ones on ebay.. i dont know if the phone outputs the required data for this cable to work, however.. has anyone tried? i'm interested because i only ahve composite video available on the screen in my car

Without d/a conversion the signal is still digital and not analog regardless of the plug(s) the adapter changes the HDMI cable into. If your screen supports a digital input, then it might work, but I doubt it does.

if you already have an MHL cable, then youre $50 away from getting what you want http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...&cagpspn=pla&gclid=CNiDrvDUmLQCFelDMgoduyAAtg

Bump - I want one too but don't want to pay £30!!
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium

Likewise i've just seen the price of the adapter, what on earth!? There's no way i'm paying that I assumed it was much the same deal as MHL to microusb and fairly low cost.
Is there really not a non-Samsung version that is significantly cheaper? or maybe a DIY method!

As far as I can tell (from buying cables that were unsuitable) the only cable that will work to connect your Note to your tv is the HDTV adapter
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/EPL-3PHPBEGXAR
or similar for your country. PCWorld in the UK sell them for £12.99 (epl-3phpbeg) if you can find stock or a salesperson who actually knows what you are asking for. I found mine in the tv section with all the Smart tv accessories.

That PC World price must be for the wrong item but searching for that code has brought up a handful of retailers selling it for near £22. Still too much imo when it's clearly not too different from the countless <£5 microusb versions!
Maybe i'll come across a used one some day.

They aren't on the website. Best to call a store. Or visit. Found mine in the Samsung Smart tv accessories section, nowhere near the computer department.

I have that adapter and just bought the (more expensive) Allshare Cast Dongle.
With the adapter one should keep in mind that a (more or less) long HDMI cable is necessary to connect the adapter to the TV/beamer/monitor.
The Dongle works wireless and can be just put beside the display device.

I'm looking for something I could connect my tab to HDMI, maybe a USB, and could charge it

How well does the connector work? is this the same story like on galaxy s3, that the framerate is halfed down, or does it run at 30fps, cause I dont want to throw away another 25 euros for an adapter, that doesnt even work properly. -.-

ive looked at the media docks for the 10" Tabs on amazon and their TV out potential but I havent found anything conclusive in regards to their performance with the Notes.

the galaxy tab (og galaxy tab) dock is only $18 on amazon and works fine with the gn101. just gotta be modded to prop it up.

Well forget what I asked for before can anybody find me a HDMI adapter?

the place where i ordered the MHL adapter canceled my order, go figure.
So I bought the OG samsung tab dock, dremeled off the sides a bit and it fits perfect. I don't have the right hdmi cable to test that part out, but so far it works fine (charging, sync, and audio through the headphone jack on the dock.)
Was only 10 on craigslist.
win.

I picked up the hdmi cable and it works perfectly.
I get 56fps using fps2d to test.
This is pretty cool.

AppRadio2 from Pioneer

Ok, so did some checking, apparently i need a specific cable to use my phone with the AppRadio2,
And an app called ARLiberator...checked the market and it is 35 frikkin dollars for the app.
Is this serious? 35 dollars? Holy cow, i could understand 10 bucks, but 35 dollars for an app?
Before I go any further with this, are there any Note 2 users out there with Pioneer's AppRadio2 and the Note 2 combined that would like to share feedback?
35 damn dollars.....better iron my shirts, cook breakfast, and wash my car every saturday lol
Seriously, any users out there that can shed some light on how it works would be great.

That's cheap. My boy bought the radio and had to buy cable from them and it was like 80 bucks

Well there is a proprietary 11 pin connector we need for our Note 2 to work with it.
Honestly I was just shocked at an app being 35 dollars. Makes me wish there was a free version so i could trial it out and see what I would be working with on my Note 2 and that AppRadio.
(I have the Pioneer AVH-8400BH, which only works with iOS. which is why i wanna get the Appradio if this app really unlocks the awesome potential...)

Tried their cable, the cable they want me to use, which is the one you listed, is a 5 pin cable, which doesn't work with the Note 2. In fact the cable works with VERY few phones.
I think i may have found a solution, if it works, i'll post it up so if anyone runs into the same situation they have a place to hopefully get things fingered out.

I thought you had to get a Samsung mhl that connects to the phone
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

The connector they sell is only a 5 pin, which is why their supported android list is very slim, SGS2 and such, the new Samsung phones use a newer 11 pin Micro USB so the MHL cable for the pioneer kit doesnt work, you have to get the adaptor that converts from 5 to 11 pin.
Mine should be here on tuesday. Outside of XDA im still researching and figuring out what works and what doesnt, and the MHL adaptor that pioneer sells absolutely does not work out of the box with our note 2 or the S3.
I have heard some people complain that the phone slows down because of the demand the connection puts on to mimic the phone on the headunit, but the Note has more power than it knows what to do with so that shouldn't be a problem.

Questions and help issues go in Q&A

One source for a not too expensive MHL adapter
FWIW, while I know there are cheap MHL connectors on Ebay, I just bought one at Frys for $25 that had a little adapter for the S3/Note 2. Worked just fine with my TV.

I found that with my Note 2 I had to use the little adapter, which implies that all the pins we need are in a regular 5 pin just not accessible on the Note 2.
Note that the MHL adapter only works if you provide power to it via the microusb port, and one thing that someone mentioned in one of the Youtube videos was that the power requirements of the Note 2 was kinda high. He initially used a garden variety power source, but got bad cutting out, and when I tried mine at home I had the same results when powering from the computers USB port. Switching to the Samsung power source that came with the phone fixed it.
I think the Pioneer car kit linked above would work if we had the little 11>5 pin adapter, and might actually provide enough power, since it looks like it has direct to 12v connections. I'll probably just go to the local electronics parts shop and buy a 12V>2a 5v voltage convertor, or just build one, but if I didnt have the MHL connector already I'd consider the Pioneer one and finding the 11>5 pin adapter.
The nice Samsung computer dock would probably also work, and hold your phone.
