MHL cables?

Do you stream any videos from your Nexus to your TV via MHL? If so, how exactly does it work? Also, what cable brands would you recommend?

I bought one from eBay.. but it sucks.. doesn't charge and the battery would be dead within 2 hours.

If you want 1 cable for both phones you have to buy the $10 MHL adapter and normal MHL cable.

the mhl adaptor I will buy but why an mhl cable?? could you link a ebay/amazon..

What HDMI cable?

What HDMI cable should I buy for Grand? Is it standard HDMI cable, or model specific?

I've got this cable: http://www.sunsky-online.com/product/default!view.do?subject.id=310565
My TV supports MHL but the cable doesn't work.
Is there some phone settings I should change?

I tried the same cable with Samsung Galaxy S4 - it works OK.
So I suppose Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos doesn't support HDMI connection.

yes me too read that GSM arena review, but after testing with so many cables for a month finally i took grand to service center for tv out conclusion..... they laughed at me and said it is not s4.
i felt really bad abt that incident. SGG is amazing super phone only -ve no tv out via HDMI and USB On-The-Go

Hmmm ... service centre guys only knows how to bully its customers ...

I think it because of kernel that grand can't support HDMI or otg cables....

So, the conclusion is that Grand Duos doesn't support neither HDMI or MHL cables for the TV?
I wanted to stream in TV the Classic Boy app while playing SNES and PSX with Bluetooth joysticks... :crying:

:good:

Micro USB otg

I just bought the Nexus 7 32GB yesterday and I am coming from a Toshiba Thrive. I am looking at OTG cables for the main purpose to charge USB speaker and possibly my Samsung S3. Is this possible? Thanks.

You're looking to use your new tablet as a charger? Why not just buy a pocket charger, which have been coming down in price?

I used my Toshiba thrive since it had a full usb charger to charge my speaker which was usb chargable and my phone there was no open outlets.

Help charging issue!!?

I have a T-Mobile note 3 and I just bought it 2 days ago and I've noticed that the phone stops charging when I move it even slightly, and the only way to make it start charging again is to bend the cable so it is straight, again from the end, also it(the cable) seems loose and look's As if it hasn't gone in fully into the charging port, because It wiggles a lot. Please help!!?

Sounds like a hardware issue. I would take it back to the store and get it replaced.

Could it be an issue with the cable, because I charged it using a USB 2.0 charger and it worked perfectly?

Solution, just buy a new usb cable, could not be easier than that!
You can use either a usb 3.0 cable which came with
the phone or a usb 2.0 cable, it works fine either way.
Good luck!

OK thanks guys, it turns out the clip on The plug was broken, which is why it wasnt firm when I plugged it in, but I just bought a new one and that solved the problem.
