Yes you do. It's annoying. I think there's a mhl cable you can buy that has the new hdmi pins without a need for a adapter.
well I dont have the adaptor at all...
what can I do so I wont remove the case an extension or something I dont know..

the monoprice 11-to-5 adapter has a longer-than-usual connector to allow it to work with cases.
Might be long enough to make it work with the defender case.

I just got 5 6' cables from monoprice.com for under $2 each shipped. They work great.

I need a longer charging cord. The factory cords they send with these tabs are wayyyyy too short. 5 feet or so would be perfect. Any recommendations?

Longer cables can be found on amazon and ebay. Here is a link to one example.

I guess I should rephrase. What longer cables have you all used that will charge the tab while using it. Most of the extended USB cables have terrible reviews because they can't supply enough juice. I see the cellet cable has good reviews but no numbers tossed around as to what its output is.

I use a regular, generic (female / male) USB extender cable, connected to the stock Samsung one. Works perfectly.

Ditto, mines only a foot or two longer and it is more than enough distance for me.
Why do you need the extra long cable?
A regular extender cable works likea charm...
Dx.com has a lot of those

I am about to buy this but want to make sure HDMI out works. Has anyone tested it out? Does it need a special cord besides the micro HDMI cord? Any answer would be much appreciated.
Thanks
No

Remember, you need a Slimport HDMI adaptor or cable, not an MHL or micro HDMI lead.
I have tested it and it does work. As previously mentioned, you do need a Slimport HDMI Adapter.

Thanks. Are there better slimport adapters than others. Do you reccomend a particular one?
I bought the one from Analogix. I believe they were the original manufacturers of them. There are now a few others on the market, but I've read varying reports on the quality of those.

So I am wanting to link my ps3 controller to my S3 to do some gaming action...
I understand you need a OTG cable, but then I noticed the gameklip comes with this spiffy mini to micro cable. My question is, could I just buy a mini to micro cable on ebay and it work? Or does a OTG cable have some sort of special micro controller in it?
Normal mini to micro cable is not usb otg cable. I tried mini to micro cable for usb drive, it won't work.
I never dissect my own otg cable, so i dunno if there's a micro controller inside
If you're rooted then you don't need a cable, just Bluetooth.
Read my thread in my signature. That should get you started

You still need the cable for first pairing don't you? At least that was when I played around with it.
I just bought a USB PS3 to micro wire and it worked just fine, paid 50 cents over here.

Any old mini USB will do for the pairing.. I think I used my old BlackBerry one.

Hi,
I have mhl cable
I have HDMI cable.
I have LG LED HDTV
I connected the mhl cable to my s4 and connected HDMI cable to the mhl port. I switched on TV and selected the HDMI as the input but nothing is coming up on my TV screen.
In my knowledge, using mhl cable or adaptor I should be able to share my screen on my TV.
Any idea why it's not working as intended. Also is there is any way to play games on to my TV from my phone?
Your help is much appreciated.:thumbup:

Which MHL cable/adapter are you using? There are a lot of knockoffs and cheap-O brands.

You need the new mhl 2.0 adapter. The s3 started with the new adapter and the one for the s2 won't work anymore

Try The Samsung Brand
Samsung Makes a MHL to HDMI OTG style converter, I got one from amazon and it works for me, They tend to be a little bit more money compared to other though
Thanks All for your replies. that makes sense.
i will try to buy one, any recommendations apart from the Samsung brand?
