I doubt it would work. Having video output is not just about external cable, but needs special electronics inside the phone. Anyway - let us know.

thanks man really wanted to know before buying, because here in Brazil the MHL is the equivalent of U $ 80.00 while in Europe and elsewhere are $ 10.00 to $ 40.00 in Brazil samsung told me that any mid-end device with micro-USB works ...
if someone could test ...

Not sure this will help but Try looking here

I've got an SGS2 and SGW, with official MHL adaptor. Will test and report back.

You'll probably have to keep waiting until the weekend. Flat out with work, 3 year old and pregnant wife. You know the story...
Don't worry - I wont forget. Intrigued myself.

i've tested that MHL cable won't work on our PHONE ..does anyone know weather it can be modified to be use with MHL or it just a Hardware Problem.

USB-OTG Cable for Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos.

Hi all! I would like to buy a USB OTG(on the go) cable for my mobile. I tried with the OTG Cables available in stores. But they ain't working. I found out that our mobile do not support OTG. The male part of cable has one pin extra compared to the original USB cable. So I just wanted to know if we could but it online or from the store. And yes, I live in India ; Mumbai. I had an idea of buying a female to female cable and connecting one side to USB and other with USB cable to phone. Thanks in advance. :thumbup::thumbup:

YA TRUE THAT!!! I checked my friends S2 and my grands usb port. theres an extra pin in the usb port of our grand which is not doing good with OTG! I think Grand wont support OTG. If some hardwate dev come up with a way to removin that f***in pin, we will be sorted out!!

i read the same article, the article explained how to use your old charger cable as otg cable or manually creating an otg cable at home.
i checked and verified by opening my own otg cable and found the same circuit as the circuit shown in that image.
i was wondering if the phone is not sending any power to the cable/pen drive.

dude, i guess you are taking about this article tech.firstpost.com/news-analysis/how-to-make-your-own-usb-otg-cable-for-an-android-smartphone-29503.html
i read this complete article and checked my own otg, i found it as shown in the image/article mentioned by you.
i believe if one want to short the pins, it can be done at phone's external plug end.
Please help me to start with the otg development.
i will be thankful to you
as it is a kernel's thing as per my research till now.
and i am sorry about your grand may its soul rest in peace.:crying:

[Q] Bought a Galaxy S4 Mini - few questions

It won't arrive for a little bit (1saleaday is slow to ship), so I figure I'll ask some questions in the meantime.
Does it support MHL 2.0? I've seen conflicting info, in that some places don't even mention MHL support. And if it's not 2.0, does it require that specific 11-pin Samsung adapter? Selling my HTC One and not sure if I should just include my current 5-pin adapter with it.
Does it work with the Smart Dock like the regular S4 and whatnot? Assuming it works with MHL 2.0, I don't see why it wouldn't work with the Smart Dock.
What kind of sound hardware does it have? I don't suppose its Wolfson...
Does it support exFAT for microSD? I've seen confirmation that it supports 64GB cards at least.
And any idea if it'll have a wireless charging back like for the S4? Don't know if it even supports wireless charging.

I've tried mhl 1.0 and 2.0. Both don't work. Also tried USB OTG also doesn't work.
I have a 64gb micro sd but I can't remember how it's formatted. But definitely works.

Well crap, I was banking on at least regular MHL - are you sure its not the cable you're using (as in, it requires the Samsung specific 11-pin cable)? If not, then I guess GSMarena is wrong (wouldn't be the first time).

I've tried both a cheap one from ebay and the samsung geniune one which works with my normal Galaxy S4 without using the power cable......both cable works on my normal GS4 but it doesn't work on my MIni GS4....i've also tried with or without the power cable attached and still doesn't work.

Well that really sucks. Oh well, guess I'll stick to using my Tab Plus for that for the time being.

only the samsung hdmi adapter works with the GS4 mini due to a specific protocol since it is not HML enabled. I know... it sucks, but it has other ways to connect to a TV

samsung smart TVs have this almost-like "wifi-direct" connection and you can mirror through wifi the phone's display. like sony has with their phones&TVs. you need to be connected to the same wifi... that's it

[Q] Video out

Does the nexus 7 have video out? I am coming from Ipad 2 and that is one feature I need in a tablet.
I don't mind buy an extra cable. Already did that with the ipad. I have a dumb lcd tv, so no help there.

The nexus 7 (2013 model) is compatible with slimport which stream over hdmi.
Here's a link to the cable:

Is there any system setting that needs to be applied? I tried the cable you linked us to and the tv acts as if no imput is being piped in.
Thanks in advance,

There's no system setting that is supposed to be applied while plugging the cable. It should show up into the tv. How much time you've waited for it to come?

Where to get MHL cable?

Hi guys,
Where to get MHL cable for Nexus 7 in Europe? Where I look, all cables for Samsung devices. Maybe these cables work with Nexus 7 too?

No, MHL will not work. You need a slimport adapter. I got mine off of amazon.com.

This thread has a large discussion about Slimport adapters, I got mine from amazon as well. The link I supplied a week ago in this thread says they are currently out of stock unfortunately but there are a lot of others out there.

check out this link at ebay.....may be you find the one you are looking for....
