Be careful about "shipping date"
I've had mine on order for over a month form them now and I'm still waiting.
However yesterday it was shipped. So that may be a start.
all others may be ok as they now state they have stock.

I was going to order one from them. The shipping time was 24 hours yesterday but changed today so i went with mobile fun instead with 24 hour delivery. It costs a bit more but at least i will get it soon

Expansys have them (don't think they are Samsung branded though).
Were £12.99 earlier today, but currently showing as £15.99

Thought i would throw this website into the ring, its a UK site though...

I have seen some really abd reviews about that site so I would be careful ordering from them

Has anyone gotten his/her hands on one yet? I'm thinking of ordering one but, i'm wondering what the output resolution is (Mhl is up to 1080P), but the galaxy S2(I9100) is 800x480. Does it only ouput videos or everything that is on screen? I can find nowhere if it's outputs are 480i/p 576i/p 720p or 1080i/p if anyone knows more please tell

I've a Bizlink MHL-Adapter (no differences between this one and Samsung's adapter).
It outputs exactly the same that is shown on the internal screen (with a resolution of 800 x 480), but when playing a movie the output resolution is set up to 1080p and only the movie will be shown. That means that it switches in a video mode with the full resolution of the video but without showing other information like the volume control or something like that. Such information are only shown on the internal screen when being in video mode. In this mode both screens are different so the GPU is more strained than in normal mode when cloning the screen.
In conclusion: Movies are shown in their native resolution and all other content is shown in the devices resolution as an copy of the internal screen.
I hope for a driver mod that enables a function for using defined resolutions on external screen. But there are different problems:
1. The GPU has to render 2 different resolutions (higher battery drain)
2. Both Renderings should show the same content in different resolutions (scaling problem)
3. To use the high resolution of the external screen effectively text sizes has to be adjusted to this resolution to show more text instead of smoother letters, so there occur (right word?) more differences between both screens (scaling problem too)

Can we use the camera while connected to TV out?
Can someone please confirm if we can use the camera feature while the TV output is ON for Galaxy S II through MHL to HDMI.
Kinda like using it as a webcam for a TV.. or for a live broadcasting/streaming.
I know that this could not be done with the GALAXY S when we connected the 3.5 mm jack as i was told that the hardware did not support this feature in galaxy S.

Just tried this - doesn't work. When running the Camera app (in both photo and video mode), it says on the TV:
"HDMI not available while application is running. Application will display on phone only"

I ordered one off eBay early last week & received it on Wednesday. It mirrors the SGS2's LCD, so you'll see the home page, the app pages, and so on. I didn't get much time to play with it as I was out of town until today, but I did notice that the HDMI output on my Vizio 32" TV was 1080i, not 1080p; no idea why.

Got my delivery from play.
it's the original Samsung one.
Quite nice, and displays all movies in their native resolutions just stretched to fill the screen.
1080p movies obviously look great.
Also I should state that the quality of the tv your playing content on makes a massive difference.
I played a DVD rip on my work tv and the quality was poor
However the same movie played via the S2 on my home tv was clear and crisp.

hye,
i bought it yesterday. when i plug in into my GS2, nothing appear at TV. i tot the HDMI cable got problem. but check using other player, it working perfectly. plug in charger cable into the MHL, it charged the phone. but nothing appear at the TV.
do i need to configure anything for this adapter? can u guys help me here. tqvm

Its kind of expensive... I wonder how much the phone will get while playing movies on tv..

Just got mine from mobilefun.co.uk (is cheaper at play.com).
Wasted half an hour to figure out that it needs power in order to work.

For those that got it from play - how long did delivery take as nede it within a week?

Has anyone tried this el cheapo version from DX?

[Q]USB to HDMI output only 720*480 resolution?

I just got a USB to HDMI cable, or can be called a MHL cable for my SGSII, but the output resolution was only 720*480(not 800*480, not 1080P, not 1080i) after the phone had been connected to the LCD screen(the screen reported this information).
I tried to set the monitor to "Full Screen" mode, but it just upscaled the image, the resolution still remained at 720*480.
Anyone has any idea about this problem?
BTW, I'm using the SiyahKernel with the stock ZSKI3 ROM.
Thanks!!

Open up the video player, it outputs at max resolution.
It does this because the system UI is running at a low resolution, so it can't output higher.

Like you I was under the distinct impression when I purchased my GS2 that the phone would output 1080p through MHL. Sadly this has not been the case. I was wondering if I was forgetting some setting but based on this thread it appears I'm not.
Wouldn't have been a deal breaker but it's still too bad.

Let's be clear.
The phone DOES output 1080p through the onboard video player. Open up a 1080p video and try it out.

Using the Samsung MHL adapter, I can do 1080i to my 32" Vizio (the only HDMI monitor I have access to). I see this resolution even when not running the video player; i.e. on the main "desktop" and app drawer screens. Of course, that's upscaled, but it still looks pretty good.
The Vizio supports 1080p, but for whatever reason, the MHL adapter won't provide it. I haven't spent a lot of time on this, but maybe I'll take another look at it over the weekend.

I did try the 1080P video playback as soon as I got the MHL, but like I said, the resolotion which the LCD screen reported is only 720*480, no matter in what kind of UI or application.
I had a LG Optimus 2x few months ago, and the HDMI on it worked perfectly with the same LCD screen.

Actually i noticed some interesting things when playing with the MHL. As i got a Samsung P2770HD screen i got basically all the connections. When i plug the phone directly by the HDMI plug screen reports full HD resolution (upscalled ofc, wondering if changing lcd density could give this some smoothness), but when i plug it trough the same cable but with a HDMI-DVI converter on the end the screen reports a lower resolution, phones native one if i remember correctly (which looks actually smooth and not pixelated, but i think there were all the fancy monitor's software enhancements on).

I've got a feeling you got this instead. www.ebay.com.au/itm/3-FT-Generic-Hi...AU_MobilePhoneAccessories&hash=item2567cc3a59

Excuse me, but at a first glance i dont think such cable could give any output at all, from what i understand of the mhl protocol the signal is different (quoting wikipedia "Other than the connectors being used, no USB nor HDMI technology is being used. It is exclusively MHL signalling through the connectors and over the cable. Other proprietary and custom connections are also allowed."). Fortunately we got an easy way to know, Thread starter, does your cable have also the power connection? And do you use it?

I wonder in the Note outputs at 720p?

I see the HDMI output quality very poor

I believe it has to be related to software or cable/monitor hardware, because my stuff gives me full hd resolution. Maybe compatibility issues, as we are using mhl adapters?

Stock, Kies supplied ki4 CF-rooted. Nothing fancy as u can see. Also my screen is a samsung P2770HD, which might be helping. As I posted a page before, I get low resolution when connecting to DVI trough an adaptor.

I use stock KI3 and you should test on some larger LCD 40-46"

When I finally get my hdmi - dvi - d-sub converter i'll try to use
Some of the projectors in the university, that might give interesting results. Anyone tried to use better lcd density values to compensate for the upscalling?

HTC One x connection via MHL adapter.

Hi Guys,
I have the one x, Optoma pk301, MHL adapter and the required HDMI cable. Got the connection all set up but I'm unable to get a display on the projector. Are there any settings in the phone that i have to change/switch on to display on an external screen?
Thanks

Mine worked right out of the box. I used a Galaxy SII adapter. As soon as i connected HDMI, charger and phone, it switched to landscape mode and the picture showed up on the tv.
As far as i am aware, there are no settings on the phone to enable/disable MHL.

Did you plug the USB to charge ? It says no power > no video

Im using this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Smart-Adapter-Galaxy-Mobile/dp/B005MR82GA
Its working now. Was displaying a red X before. Didn't do anything other than just unplug and re plug everything

Can you tell me if I play movie on my TV by mhl cable, does it shows external subtitles (.srt)? And, can hox play movie on TV with phone screen of during.

"Micro USB to HDMI® MHL Adapter - Black" - quick review
I just received the MHL adapter from MonoPrice, about $10 US:
http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8805&seq=1&format=2
The product description implies some phones can power the MHL adapter, with the One X you must supply power via a micro-USB charger. Be forewarned, the load may be a little higher than what some phone chargers can deliver; my EVO 4G charger would shut off after about 10 seconds, an old Nexus One charger worked fine.
Output is 1280x720 60Hz (should auto-adjust to the TV, don't have a PAL display here to confirm this). The Samsung HDTV was set to "Just Scan", meaning no scaling is done by the TV.
The resultant HDTV image is underscanned by about 35 pixels on each side, 20 pixels on top and bottom, resulting in a display area of 1210x680. I think this is a problem with the One X GPU drivers, and not the adapter because I doubt a simple device like this can do any scaling. At CES, I played with a few Transformer Primes running Shadowgun Multiplayer, mirrored to HDTVs at 1280x720, and there was no underscan, so this is likely not be a limitation of Tegra 3 GPU.
I got the red X once (displayed on the TV), afterwards it would not mirror the display to the TV until reset, so the connection handshaking is kinda finicky. I've been plugging the micro-USB power last, after the phone and the HDMI is connected and the phone is powered on. Sense should flip into landscape immediately, if not, something is wrong. If you power on after everything is connected, you should see the lock screen in portrait for a couple seconds, then it'll rotate. Sense works surprisingly well in landscape, I'm surprised that HTC didn't allow this mode without an MHL adapter connected.
There is a slight performance hit on the One X when display mirroring is active:
GLBenchmark 2.1.4, native display:
Egypt Standard: 48 fps
Pro Standard: 54
GLBenchmark 2.1.4, HDMI mirrored:
Egypt Standard: 42 fps
Pro Standard: 52 fps
If you want to demo a One X, play Shadowgun THD on a HDTV, it looks absolutely amazing. You are "playing blind" on a touchscreen, but once you get a feel for turning and shooting (right thumb), it's pretty easy. Ideally, this setup is screaming for a game controller, but I haven't come across a thread about this yet for the One X. Support for analog sticks has been in the OS since 3.1, so the keymapping utilities on the Market shouldn't be necessary, but I need to look into this further.
Note: the images were taken of the HDTV using a point-and-shoot and scaled to 720p, so you can see the degree of underscan (the unfiltered decimation is very visible in the fonts).

The TV is full HD, the phone passes 720p through the adapter, looks like it's a direct mirror.

Everything you see on the phone is mirrored on the TV. If you are watching a movie with subtitles on the phone, you will obviously see them on the TV.
My best experience so far watching 720p & 1080p has been with MX Player, but a lot of people also use Dice and Mobo.

That was not the case with my sgs and tv out and as far as I know with sgs2 tv out via mhl. It's mirroring everything but subtitles.

hi i have two days htc one x and have two hdmi cable to tv but same result no signal what i do wrong i use this one please helpme

I bought a MHL adapter from Mobilefun and I get the phone picture on a my PC monitor, with a little pixel loss as described by rasterX.
However I tried looking at a video I recorded with the HOX. I played the recording using the stock player and MX player.
In both cases, the playback is too fast on HDMI, it's like pushing a fast forward button.
With MX player I tried the different options (hardware/software): hardware is too fast, software is variable: complex pictures are too slow to display, less complex pictures are shown faster but since the display time changes according to the picture, the software playback is useless.
I tried two different PC monitors, one is Philips with a DVI-HDMI adapter, the other a DELL with a direct HDMI input, results are the same for both. I'm in a 50Hz country (France) if ever this can have a side effect...
Anyone has similar issues with MHL?

I tried my Samsung MHL adapter and it worked. My TV resolution is 1366x768.
When I connect all cables (inclusing power of course) I get portrait screen on my TV. As soon as I play movie or game, it goes landscape. When back to homescreen, it's portrait. No issues in Diceplayer or MX Player. Worked in HW and Software. Software mode allows to see subtitles on TV.

Sound only out of one channel
I only seem to be getting audio out of the left channel. I've tried 2 MHL adapters, and 2 different HDMI cables with 2 different TVs.
What's going on!?

Htc One X MHL Problems :(

Hey all , just playing around with my One x through MHL and noticed its only outputting at 640x480 @60hz !
It should be 1280x720 at least.
Ive checked on a few screens around my home.
I have this Adapter http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007K8NN9U/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00
Anyone else have similar issues?
I wants Full HD's

There should be something wrong either with your MHL adapter or your software, its working pretty well with my ONE X and im getting 720p with no prob...

which adapter do you use ? I might just get a new one!

I use samsung Micro usb to MHL i used to use it with the galaxy note and S2

My girl friends sensation fills my 42" 1080p screen perfectly while outputting via MHL but my ONE X has borders the whole way round. It also does this on a smaller 720p screen.
Guessing its a Tegra issue.

Are you using a HDMI-to-DVI adapter by any chance? During connection handshaking, the phone queries the external display for 1280x720 60Hz, if not found, it will drop down to 640x480. You can use MonInfo the check your televisions's EDID info:
http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/moninfo.shtm
The CE mode IDs are what are being scanned, and you need to be talking to an HDMI port for this.

This is a known problem with One X unfortunately. It's shrinking the output image if the display has overscan modes, rather, it should be checking if the display has underscan modes and output 1:1 by default. I've submitted this issue as a bug to HTC, and am still awaiting a reply from engineering.
I don't believe this is a problem with Tegra, because the Transformer Prime will display full screen when the HDTV is configured for 1:1.

Ah thanks for the info. I'll will also mention this to them. Hope a fix comes out as its a PITA.
I'm also noticing that the image is broken up in to lots of mini squares when playing MKV. Perhaps this is MK player rather then MHL adapter. Anyone else noticed this?

The small squares look like bad image scaling , there almost overlapped. Circles look jagged etc

Question about hooking up to my TV via hdmi and not getting full screen.

Has anyone found a way to hook up their tablet to their TV with full display? I bought an hdmi adapter but it has a black bar on each side not covering the whole TV display. My note 10.1 2013 version didn't have this problem.

I have the same issue and haven't found a solution so far. What makes it worse, it defaults to a 1080i 24hz signal which is very noticeably laggy especially when gaming. And the colors are bad. Makes no sense, the note 10.1 should have 0 issue pushing 1080p/60hz when it does usually alot more than that.
what we need is hdmi options. I also want to be able to turn off the screen of my tablet when it's outputting to the TV.

Exactly!!! I even bought an hdmi cable that plugs into power and it's not charging the tablet at all. I also would love if you could shut the tablet off while doing so. Do you think the samsumg all cast wirele hub is the answer? For now anyway? Correct me if im wrong but doesnt it fix all problems were discussing except the "covering the whole screen" part? Well and slight lag... man this sucks... how is this tablet not as supported as the 1st generation one? Lame...

I did some testing today and it really grinds my gears... I have a 3rd party adapter 5 in 1 (hdmi, usb, sd card, micro sd, micro usb) standard 5 pin mhl and an adapter for 11 pin mhl.
-my wife's galaxy s2 works perfectly with the 5 pin. Outputs full 1080p / 60hz smooth and responsive.
-My sgs3 doesn't work at all with the adapter (4.3 stock), it starts charging but there is no image on the screen.
-my note 10.1 2014 works but it outputs 1080p / 24hz and it has a really bad delay that makes it impossible to play games, and of course 24 fps is laggy as ****. And of course it has black boarders on the side.
I can't believe that there isn't a settings menu for hdmi. Even my old transformer tf201 had one. And you get the best experience with the 4 year old sgs2(running 4.2). Unbelievable.

I've never used a physical adapter so can't really draw one. AllShare Cast works really well on the N10.1-14, a lot faster than my old N10.1-12. Video apps that were barely usable on the '12 are no problem on the '14. I'm not a big gamer so perhaps someone who is and uses AllShare Cast can comment.

The TV's got a black frame so it's hard to see. I'd say the picture being mirrored is 100% with some small bars on the sides that are necessary to adjust 16:10 to 16:9. I've noticed nothing distorted in any of the apps/content I've viewed.

PS3
Here's another question, I just hooked my tablet up to my ps3 via bluetooth and it will allow me to share video, pic's, and music. But I have some videos downloaded and put them in that folder where the ps3 is looking for them. I rebooted and the ps3 still does not see the video. its an mp4 so Im not sure if I need to convert it to a different format or what. Anyone have any insight on that? Im still new to the ps3 as I just got it a few months back.

I'm not prepared to pay for another 70-80$ device (that's what allshare costs where i live) to get a good image... This tablet is a highly advanced device and i expect hdmi out to work. As I said it works very well on the 4 year old sgs2 why would it work worse on a 2014 device?

So, can I mirror onto my 60inch vizio with the all share wireless hub?

I agree that's a lot more money for something other cheaper devices already do. You go on a still keep your tablet?
Make sure to watch the sunset at least once a day

EDIT: Never mind. I got it all to work. So I guess thats my work around for now. Im just going to use my ps3 to view the videos I want. Not the ideal solution but it beats spending more money! Hopefully something gets figured out in the mean time. I shouldn't have to rely on a ps3 for this type of thing on such an awesome device.
