Problem with hdtv adapter atention to everyone - Galaxy S III Accessories

My friends, i bought the original samsung hdtv hdmi mhl adapter for my samsung S3 and please everyone that has one please verify if you have the same problem!!
When connected with the hdtv adapter it only works connect to the original charger, so far so good, the problem isif you notice while connect to this adapter the phone slowly keeps droping the battery level.... i think that means that the energy provided by the charger is inferior, not enough than the one that is being spent by the adapter...!!
When i use my adapter usually i have wi fi and bluetooth on because of mouse and keyboard..
Tryed with energy save mode on and off and made no difference...
HELP PLEASE!! THIS CAN BE A PROBLEM TO EVERYONE!!
How do i contact samsung for further help?
Thank You

I don't have an MHL adapter and i could be mistaken, but i though i read that power supplied to the MHL does not charge the phone.

I didnt see nothing about that but the phone icon says it is charging and the led of charging on the phone cones on and everything....
Im confused because i dont know if the adapter is defective or everyone has the same problem..

I didn't have bluetooth on but when I was last watching a film(1hour 20mins) the phone charged to about 90% from starting around 40%.

MHL MicroUSB to HDMI Adapter **VIDEO INSIDE

I bought the Samsung MHL adapter through Amazon - Samsung MHL Adapter and I must say this has been of the best inexpensive purchases you buy for your Galaxy Nexus. I decided to make a quick video to show you how great it works, please enjoy!

The MHL adapter is using full hdmi cable or mini hdmi ?
thanks for the heads up. I may have to get one of these.

Thanks for the video, it is really cool.
When I had my G2x with micro HDMI out, I bought all kines of cables to plug it into the TV from the comfort of my bed, and I really only used once or twice.
Maybe in the future I'll buy it but I think it will end up in my cable's cabinet.

I think people who travel or game more will use it. I hook my phone up to hotel rooms to watch Netflix and my dish network programming/dvr. Gamers may want a bigger screen.

How does this play out with USB host mode in Android?
Do I need another adapter for host mode? Or can I use this one while I also have HDMI out?
http://www.amazon.com/Menotek-Adapt...1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1325341220&sr=1-1
This one seems to be "certified" for the Galaxy Nexus and also has a charging port to use while doing HDMI output. Does the Samsung adapter come with this?
I'm most certainly interesred but I want more details before shelling out money, even if it's small money
Edit: Looked at the video and I see the USB port there. Still though, how does this play wtih USB host? Do I even need an adapter for that?
Using the HDMI adapter and playing games with a controller can only be done with a bluetooth controller? Is there any way I can use HDMI and a USB PS3/360 controller?
(using the PS3 wireless is not a option for me i cannot get the app and phone to work together)

to ppl with questions, i got the official samsung gs2 mhl adapter. its 11$.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/230721222527?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
works wonders. i am 4.0.2 stock.
it uses full hdmi. 1$ on ebay.
it has a charging port, but it shows plugged in as usb charger even when plugged into the wall. it only draws enough power to power keep the charge constant, that is your battery does not go down, nor does it go up. and no, you cannot connect usb host when watching in mhl mode. would have been cool, but doesnt work.
One more thing, apparently THE PHONE HAS TO BE PLUGGED IN FOR THE MHL ADAPTER TO WORK. So, unless you plug in the charger, the mhl adater wont give output.
i hope i answered all questions.
OMG I need me on of these. It's not a Amazon prime item so that mean I have to pay for shipping lol.
nice!
Which program you using for the emulators and to sync to wi mote

Wow. So emulator+wifi+bluetooth+mhl= dead phone. 500ma is not enough to keep the GN floating.
Seems like a huge oversight on Google's part or perhaps it's just a MHL limitation. I know data does not work, which is why people have to use BT. But 500ma, what a joke.
Can anyone else confirm this?
Awesome video and post, thanks!!
Does the MHL to HDMI work with Android Movies? I know on my stock Transformer TF101 HDMI out is blocked in Movies. ...worked fine for Netflix and others though.
As far as battery is concerned. Would it be possible to program the screen to turn off when viewing in HDMI and still view it on the TV? seems like this would cut battery consumption dramatically. If not you could set the screen brightness to as low as possible.
Thanks man! Gonna buy this ASAP

Battery drain seems to be corroborated here too:

What a downer.
Great minds think alike though:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20156851&postcount=46
So it looks like the only option is to use some sort of dual charging situation where one charges the MHL adapter and the other charges the phone via pogo.
Perhaps the native HDMI doc allows AC charging? I guess we will have to wait and see.

mhl cable issues

hi all i got my self a mhl cable a few week ago and kept losing signal to my tv with it so i got a replacement and this one does the same... basicly i get the old style white noice screen at random when trying to use my phone and tv.. ps also their is alot of color banding with this mhl i have...
please please please help me, where can i buy one that will be problem free,
ps on a side note... can multiple bluetooth devices be connected at once.. ie i have a mini rii keyboard and the touch mouse is a pain to use so if i used that with normal bluetooth mouse would both function ok side by side?
I cant help you about the MHL adapter. Sorry.
Regarding Bluetooth devices. I use a BT keyboard, Microsoft BT mouse and a headset at the same time and it is working without any problems.
regarding your mhl cable
is your data (3G) turned on?
if its on then turn it off and try connecting your device to your lcd again
i had the same problem and i thought it was from the cable
but i read somewhere that if the data (3G) is on it will cause the disconnection because of the search for better signal and reconnecting to it
hope this helps you as it did for me
read something new about the 3G may affect the signal to TV. Mine also kinda weird - my MHL adaptor can output my Note screen to my home Panasonic 720p LCD TV and Samsung 27" 1920x1020 LCD monitor with no problem (but it looks much smoother on the 720p when zooming in and out) but it can't work with my in-law's Panasonic Full HD LCD TV. After connected, no signal at all.
yeah you really can see the color banding when its on a big screen. its there on the small display too, just harder to see.
did i hear right that with ics this will go away as they will switch to a high color depth always?
Thought I would ask the obvious question. Have you actually plugged in the phone charger to the side port of the MHL cable when using the MHL to output to the television.
Try connecting the charger to the MHL cable and then to TV and then to phone. Cause otg cable gives errors when done the other way around, so guessing MHL might give similar problems if you don't connect them in the proper sequence.
hiall thankyou so much for info.. ill try tonight..
@Teflanzy - ill try this 3g thing as i use wifi at home so this will not effect my usage
@bubblesmoney - yes mte it dont work at all without power cable, its required on the leads i have
as for colour banding im happy now i know its not just me and ics might solve this
hi all after much effort of testing i still get the signal loss even with 3g turned off is their any other solutions as the guy i got it from sent me a 3rd cable and all of them do the same
i had same issue.
solution is buy original, or very close to original samsung cable, i bought one and no more drops.

If it's visible on a TV then at least it's 100% certainly not a Note screen issue but purely a software problem.

Hii everybody. In a big problem here. I have a galaxy s2. I9100.
Got a MHL cable from ebay. Supposed to be official SAMSUNG adaptor.
http://www.ebay.in/itm/170773709311?...ht_2211wt_1139
And a high speed universal HDMI cable.
Now my problem is that when I connect this HDMI cable to the MHL and to the Charger and the mobile, it doesn't work the way it is supposed to be.
It connects fine to my TV(Toshiba HDTV) and mirrors the display, but only for few seconds. The screen on the TV goes completely blacked out, while the display on mobile is fine. Now I have to disconnect the MHL and connect again to the mobile to get the mirroring on the TV back. Again after few minutes the same happens. I can see the mobile charging via USB and even though the display drops on the TV, the TV is still in the HDMI mode(a black screen). Coz when I disconnect the MHL completely the screen on TV turns blue(indicating no input).
So this shud not be the case of loose connection.
Now can anybody help me diagnose the problem here.
Is it the MHL?
Is it the HDMI cable.(Although HDMI works perfectly with my laptop and TV)?
Is it the Charger? (Using samsung's box charger)
Is it the mobile, hardware or firmware? (on DDKL1 official release)
i have this problem like screen goes black out for a few sec at certain time on my toshiba regza. but its working fine on my phlilps tv. maybe you can try turning your cell into flight mode and see if it will help a certain? some said data may cause the interupt of it.

Thanks a lot dude. It worked.
But can't understand the relation between 3G and HDMI..
Anyways you made my day.
CHEERS.
I'm glad I read up on this before purchasing. I saw some fake Samsung versions, MIChn, I assume the OEM is MIKor? Please confirm if you bought the original.
I am also having problems with my MHL adaptor. I purchased one for £6.60 from eBay.
I contacted the seller as it was not working and they kindly sent me a second one, however that is also not working.
I have tried turning USB debugging on and off but it makes no difference. All that happens is it says USB connected and then almost immediately says USB disconnected.
I tried changing the order of how I plug the cable in to the power and HDMI and phone but still the same thing happens.
I previously had an HTC Desire HD so I am used to being able to select from options when a USB is connected!
Has anyone else managed to get one of the cheap MHL cables to work or will I have to purchase an official one?
Thanks for your help!
P.S. Hi, I'm new here!
mhl issue solved thanks for the solution

[Q] MHL Adapter not working

I bought an MHL adapter from amazon and i connected it to my tv and it doesn`t work. I connected it to power, Ive rebooted my phone several times and still couldn't get it to work.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
hmmm if everything is plugged in.. it should be detected right away... could it be a rom or kernel issue? undervolted kernel might cause problems because welll not enough volts obviously. a couple weeks back using faux kernel.. i couldn't use anything below -25 volts to keep a steady display.
I've had the same problem running non stock roms and kernels. My buddy has a stock SGS2 tried it worked, tried mine nothing. Try going back to stock or at least a stock rom. I just ordered my MHL adapter and are currently running Mr. X stock rom with darkside kernel, when i get my shipment ill report back. Hope this helps.
S...
Ive tried going back to the stock rom but had no luck.
My tv seems to recognize that something is plugged in, it just wont display properly. I reset the settings on my tv but that didnt work either. Hmmmm

As simple as turning on & off the tv.
I bought a cheap mlh adapter and a cheap hdmi cable from ebay and had neither the phone or the tv recognize each other. The solution was to plug in the power to the mlh adapter first, then plug it into the phone second; then turn the TV on with it switched to the correct hdmi source and finally, plug the hdmi cable into the mlh adapter. But sometimes I still have to sleep(standby screen) the phone and wake it before it work even with this method. I tried plugging and unplugging these components a few different ways but this was the one that work for me and has continued to work every time. Hope this helps.
Try plugging everything in, then rebooting your phone while it's hooked up to your tv.
Ive tried everything i can think of. Mabey the adapter is bad.

get the monoprice adapter, good and inexpensive.. unless you got it from there.. probably bad adapter lol
Easy to check
I would try plugging the power cord into the mlh adapter then into your phone, if you get power to the phone it might suggest that your hdmi cable is the culprit. If you get power to your sgs2 then I would try switching out the hdmi cable with another to rule out the cable as the bad egg. If both the mlh adapter and the cable test good then one last test would be to switching out which hdmi port you are using by changing the cable to another hdmi port. The last check is unlikely but I am just trying to cover all the bases.
This is just my two cents but sending back products tend to increase cost and adds up quickly. I tend to try every available avenue before returning products. The comment about Monoprice selling this adapter is right on, as this where i got mine for dirt cheap. Good luck with what ever you decide.
need any and all the help i can
I have a samsung galaxy s infuse 4g ... and a sony brava tv... i have bought 2 mhl adapters and 2 hdmi cables .. hooked them up in as many orders as possible as well as turning the phone off and on but still nothing does anyone have any sugestions to help make this work ???
Sounds crazy but if all else fails.
You could use the og adapter. I found on samsungs website http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EIA2UHUNBEGSTA
And i check if your phone the Infuse was compatible which it is. Last ditch effort take the phone and the adapters to your retail store and see if they can get them to work. Sorry, if these suggestions are not better than my above comments, but I can't think of any other measures to try. Hope you get the problem solved.

Did you plug power into the adapter? It needs a power source, so plug your charger into the side of it ...
Yes i hooked it up the same way as the youtube video and i also called samsung tech suport and they said that what i was doing it should work...do you think my luck is that bad that i bought 2 faulty mhl adapters??

Have you tried a different HDMI cable? Or a different TV or Input on that TV?
I have a sneeking suspision that the 2 mhl adapters that i bought are junk possibly.. Does anyone think that it could be because my phone is from rogers (canada) or would they be the same thing as he usa version ?? Because i have noticed that on youtube of the unboxing of my model phone it has a mhl suplied in the box..
Hey thankyou for your sugestions but im having a hard time finding the Samsung mhl adapter in Canada apparently we dont get in im the box with the phone because of some law... Do you think the American website would send to Canada?
Mine did not come with an MHL and I am in the states, I found one on ebay ....
The 2 i have now are from ebay and dont work.. Is yours a actual Samsung one?

[Q] Note II MHL > HDMI issues

Hi all.
I've searched for similar questions and can't find anything that gives me an answer... so here goes.
Model number: GT-N7100 (Samsung Galaxy Note 2)
Android version: 4.1.1
Modifications: None.
Problem:
- Connect MHL cable to phone.
- Connect power
- Connect HDMI to tv & MHL
- Phone pops up a message on screen advising that HDMI connection has been made.
- No output from phone to tv.
I tried originally with the wrong MHL cable designed for a Galaxy S2 (established this thanks to a post I found on here, thanks). Then replaced with one designed for the S3 which should (according to what i read) also work with the Note2.
Am I missing something here?
The cable used was from Amazon and is not a samsung original part. But before spending more money to get the samsung part i want to be sure i exhausted all options with the cheaper alternative.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.

my theory is it has something to do with all share cast
I bought a 'generic' adapter at first, did not work. Ended up going with the Samsung adapter...worked fine...
make sure yr MHL cable/adaptor is compatible for note2/s3, they use different pins with older model
Hi all.
Thanks for the replies. [will do the whole thanks button thing in a minute].
I threw the adapter in a drawer for the weekend and pulled it back out this morning to have another crack at it.
Its the cheap n nasty adapter that is at fault. I shoved the connector into the bottom of the phone really hard this time, and instead of black, the tv screen went green. All green. A bit of jiggling later and i had phone output on the tv, but its a very sketchy connection and a slight knock loses the connection, even though the phone still thinks the cable is connected still.
Only problem then is that there is no audio coming through the tv. All phone settings suggest there should be.
So i went upstairs to try on another tv, and it works perfectly with video and audio (once the cable is rammed home good and hard).
Problem solved. For now, it will do. But I will at some point be investing in the genuine samsung part that should do the job properly. And a new TV for the living room ~ current one is old and was a budget model at the time, so you can imagine how bad it is by todays standards.
Hi, can you help to check if the camera apps work when you use mhl ?
Im using the sprint gn2 do I go with the same step when connecting mhl adapter? Before you connect to television is the phone suppose to be charging? I think I have to buy the right one .I bought mine amazon from china and still have not hooked it up to my tv yet. Can there be a problem with phone? Its new never dropped

i just got my samsung MHL adapter which is for the S3 but supposedly should work with note 2 also.
when i connect the hdmi cable and the power cable and then connect it to my phone i see a popup "hdmi cable cvonnected"
however,
my monitor (Dell 2408WFP) just goes into sleep mode.
i also tried another monitor.. same thing.
i'm on android revolution with perseus kernel... which is just a modded stockrom.
i have not made a samsung account so i don't have any of the samung specific apps activated... could this be the problem?
do you need to have that sharecast or whatever to be activated first in order to get the TV out functionality?
I bought Samsung MHL adapter last month for HTC One X and it works fine even without connect the phone to charging.
I just tried that to my new Note 2 and it doesn't work at all.. already try to charge the phone still not showing anything not even a notification saying my note2 connected to the hdmi...

ok.. i decided to actually create a samsung account and installing the all-share cast app hoping this would finally make the mhl work..
but alas..
same thing..
i connect power, mhl en and hdmi cable.... set monitor to look for hdmi signal...
phone then gives me the 'hdmi adapter connected' message and then the monitor goes into energy saving mode...
i guess my adapter is faulty.... it is supposedly a genuine brand new samsung adapter but i got it from ebay hongkong or china or whatever... so... well... you know..
i think i will order the wireless all-share hub in stead...
Are you rooted? I've read that hml doesn't work if you are.

well yeah... if getting a wireless allshare cast hub instead for 80 bucks is a solution.. then yes.. i guess it's solved..
by the way,
yes.. i have root.. where did you read that a rooted phone prevents the MHL adapter from properly working?
do you have a link or something?
in that case i could still try to persuade the Android Revolution HD Rom developer to look into the issue...

Try it using the 5V - 2A charger, i have read, somewhere i forgot, that 2A is a must for being able to use MHL.
I can't say if it is true or not, i'm atill waiting all stuff be delivered (All-share cast hub, MHL adapter, Smart Dock, etc).
Good luck
It seems like the china products r all faulty

For me the MHL cable worked well with easy disconnections (any minimal movement). But I used it with the bloutooh mouse and so I didn't feel so much the issue.
Now the note 2 doesn't reveal the cable. I plug it in and nothing happens.
I don't remember if I changed ROM before the issue but it's sure I always had a custom ROM.
Can be a ROM problem?
I will try the MHL cable with my father's s3 and let you know if is a cable issue.
EDIT:
SORRY GUYS, IS A CAVE PROBLEM. ITS DEAD
I have rooted my device also. Come to think of it, this might just be the issue. Rooted with exynosabuse gonna try to unroot and see if it works. Still want it to work with root though because i use the sixaxis to play games..
Once u unrrot your note 2 did it work with the mhl cable

I got a problem I hope someone can help me solve.
I got the HDTV MHL to HDMI adapter ... plugged everything where it's supposed to go including the charger but the display is not being outputted to my monitor. My phone charges but nothing else.
I'm on ARHD 12.0. Any ideas?
by me it works perfect no problem (same rom)

Thanks for the reply... I'll try to figure out what the problem is .. if it's not the rom then I don't know what it could be

Have you got the correct MHL adapter? You need one that specifically states it works with the S3 and Note 2.
If yours doesn't, it is almost certainly an S2 compatible adapter, which won't work.

I have the same problem. I think is the power, download this app from here

to see how many ma is giving the charger
The normal is about 1700ma at charging, mine is giving 200-460ma at mhl with the stock usb cable
I bought a belkin microusb 5pin cable which is giving 1800ma at charging but i haven't try at mhl adapter yet.

Mine specifically states that it's for S3 on the box. And the one for S3 should work for note 2 as well since they both require 11pin. But for reason it doesn't work for me. I eliminated the rom as the cause since it tried using it with Stock rom and still not working.

Mine is giving 200-460ma at mhl as well using stock charger.
But if plug the charger directly to phone I'm getting 1800.
Problem solved
Its your power adapter I went to RadioShack and got a new power adapter that's 1.5 amps and I haven't had any problems everysince. You have to have the right power amps or your adapter is not going to work
