Where can I get a MHL adapter? Link? - Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories

Does anyone have an idea where I can get the MHL hdmi adapter for my gt8013?
I saw one on ebay but i'd rather buy from a store or amazon..
Thanks
and any word on a multimedia dock?

Bump - I want one too but don't want to pay £30!!

Likewise i've just seen the price of the adapter, what on earth!? There's no way i'm paying that I assumed it was much the same deal as MHL to microusb and fairly low cost.
Is there really not a non-Samsung version that is significantly cheaper? or maybe a DIY method!

As far as I can tell (from buying cables that were unsuitable) the only cable that will work to connect your Note to your tv is the HDTV adapter
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/EPL-3PHPBEGXAR
or similar for your country. PCWorld in the UK sell them for £12.99 (epl-3phpbeg) if you can find stock or a salesperson who actually knows what you are asking for. I found mine in the tv section with all the Smart tv accessories.

That PC World price must be for the wrong item but searching for that code has brought up a handful of retailers selling it for near £22. Still too much imo when it's clearly not too different from the countless <£5 microusb versions!
Maybe i'll come across a used one some day.

They aren't on the website. Best to call a store. Or visit. Found mine in the Samsung Smart tv accessories section, nowhere near the computer department.

I have that adapter and just bought the (more expensive) Allshare Cast Dongle.
With the adapter one should keep in mind that a (more or less) long HDMI cable is necessary to connect the adapter to the TV/beamer/monitor.
The Dongle works wireless and can be just put beside the display device.

I'm looking for something I could connect my tab to HDMI, maybe a USB, and could charge it

How well does the connector work? is this the same story like on galaxy s3, that the framerate is halfed down, or does it run at 30fps, cause I dont want to throw away another 25 euros for an adapter, that doesnt even work properly. -.-

ive looked at the media docks for the 10" Tabs on amazon and their TV out potential but I havent found anything conclusive in regards to their performance with the Notes.

the galaxy tab (og galaxy tab) dock is only $18 on amazon and works fine with the gn101. just gotta be modded to prop it up.

Well forget what I asked for before can anybody find me a HDMI adapter?

the place where i ordered the MHL adapter canceled my order, go figure.
So I bought the OG samsung tab dock, dremeled off the sides a bit and it fits perfect. I don't have the right hdmi cable to test that part out, but so far it works fine (charging, sync, and audio through the headphone jack on the dock.)
Was only 10 on craigslist.
win.

I picked up the hdmi cable and it works perfectly.
I get 56fps using fps2d to test.
This is pretty cool.

Mini hdmi cable, where to find??????

I have searched high and low for these hdmi cables for he EVO and have bought a few but once received, they were where still to big, way to big. Has anyone found these cables????? If so can you please tell me where. I think its stupid sprint didn't include one, even a short one would'be done it.
Sent from my Supersonic EVO 4G
they are $30 at sprint's website, you should be able to find cheaper elsewhere online though. i'm waiting for the dock which includes a cable
I too did the same thing searched in amazon for hdmi for evo ordered two cords when i got them they were hdmi to hdmi mini what you need to search is hdmi to hdmi micro.. spent my last couple dollars on the wrong cords.. really only wanted the cords to play psx on my tv turns out it only work on a few selected apps so i wont be purchasing until it works for majority of phone functions
looks like you're looking for the wrong cable. its MICRO not mini. Get a type D(micro) to type A(regular) male cable
Yeah I guess that was my mistake, I didn't know there was a micro. And as for running the psx emu onto the tv, that would be AWESOME! Even just playing the regular Android games Thank you all for your help.

Most Sprint Store's carry them if you don't mind paying around $30.00 for them. I was told all of them carry have them if they can keep them in stock, but i dont know how true that is. That's where i got mine.
I bought 2 off of ebay for like 6 bux each, they work perfectly.
Monoprice will have them in stock on the 13th for 2 or 3 dollars. You are retarded if you pay thirty dollars for that cable.

Get em now.
Greetings all. Just picked up a 10.1 from a local BB. super excited to open it up in a couple of hours.
As far as accessories, can someone verify that the travel charger and the usb cable that came with the 7" galaxy tablet will work with this 10.1" as well?
Any recommended place to get these two from?
cellphoneshop seems to be the place to get some cheap $3-$5 chargers and usb cables.
any other sites?
I refuse to pay the obscene $20 and $35 that samsung is charging for the cables and chargers....
thanks
I believe the 7" tab stuff will work. I'm going to confirm that today after work.

Sigh, If thats the case then by tab is going straight back to best buy in a week
The 7 inch tab stuff works fine on the 10.1. The usb adapter is backorder at samsung and does not appear anywhere else.
I went to my local Best Buy this weekend and saw a space for USB connection kit on the shelf. The sales guy couldn't find it in the internal system or on their website though. The SKU was 2837365 and he said it was an accessory previously discontinued for the 7" tab that is coming back for both. Not sure if anybody else saw this. I think I saw someone else posted they saw the same thing at another website forum too.

Yes it will, one of the features of honeycomb is the ability to do USB hosting. I haven't bought it yet, but I believe the keyboard dock has USB ports. Now I don't have any reports saying that anyone has tried it out yet, but thats what I wouldlook in to

It does NOT have USB ports but does have a pass-through of the 30-min Samsung Connector they "claim" allows you to use the USB -or- HDMI adapters. I have neither to test this but I have the keyboard dock and there is only the 30-min and a headphone jack.

[Q] Any news on 30 pin hdmi adapter

Feel like its very important accessory. Please share info even if its not Samsung made.
Last I read it was due out in late July according to some third party accessory stores. Nothing official from Samsung though...
http://galaxytablife.com/2011/07/galaxy-tab-10-1-hdtv-hdmi-adapter-due-out-late-july/
thank you for the info. I hope this adapter works with wifi model. Because with gtab 7 wifi model hdmi dock does not works and it's official from samsung. Hdmi dock works only with Gtab 7 3g models.

Anyone know if Apple's 30 pin connector works with the SGT? They look similar, and keep appearing in search results for one another. If so, the 30-pin to hdmi dongle (I'm n00b & cannot post links but it's on Amazon for $44.99) for the ipad2 should work, no? And if so, scoffing the price and the number of cords/connections required to get this going.
No, Apple adapters are not compatible. Yes, they are both 30-pin adapters, but those 30 pins are mapped out differently, making them proprietary.
CHECK THIS VID OUT..

ok, I got so excited I went and bought the dock. And it doesn't work, maybe there is a way to get it to, but it just goes to dock mode and never displays. I have tried multiple displays and no go. Anyone want to figure this out? I have a $10 donation to you, waiting.

Bought it from Samsung Korea ..
Just tested ... you need to hook up power to the unit (ie there's a piggyback 30pin that needs to be connected to POWER) before you can view it on the TV .. so it's daisy chain (Tab to adaptor, adaptor to USB power.. adaptor to HDMI

Very good point .. and I found out all the 7" tab stuff works on the 10.1 adaptor
mg: just saw the manufacture date for the HDMI :lol:
15 Jul 2011 :lol:
I didn't plug it in. I will try with the ac adapter when I get to work. I flashed the touchwiz rom so if it works I won't know if touchwiz helps.
ok. Works! Needs to be plugged in to the AC adapter but I don't know if you must have touchwiz. I am betting you must considering that without you get the dock constantly running when you press home. This does not do that.
Hehe good ! And i dont think you need touchwizz to make it work, did it fit the whole screen perfectly ?

It does not fit 1080 screens fully. Touchwiz keeps the home button displaying when on the television and fills what it can. Different than what the xoom does. But it does probably fit a full screen 720.

Hmm .. mine display fullscreen .. and I noticed on the youtube video when you play movies .. the tab is blank while the HDMI is running ..
mine displays on both .. ??
great job guys you really make work easier for everyone. Will hit thank you for all.
I flashed the bonsai rom to check and see if the experience was any different. It too shows the bar at the bottom. With the zoom I was annoyed the bar was not there. But when it is there it does not fit the screen fully. I hope that becomes a choice in the future updates. Also, seems flash staggers when using HDMI. Maybe just something that is holding off the real updates from Samsung.

HDMI dock

As you my know there is no Hdmi dock for our 10.1 thats not really the truth. There was a post about using the center part of the 7 tab dock and some post-it notes as a work around well I ordered the 10" dock not knowing the it didnt have the Hdmi port, I was pissed, why in the hell do you have a multimedia dock with no Hdmi port.. So after seeing the video of the 7" dock I discovered that the center part will swap with the 10" dock that doesn't have the Hdmi port and now I have a real Hdmi dock...
P.s. you have to have the the power plugged in to the dock for the Hdmi to work.....

i totally agree that the dock without HDMI is just stupid. Just another way making us buy more **** a la apple-style.
Nice workaround' but how much was the total?
Yes you add the cost of the second dock but if you look around you can find used docks or other ways around this but thats not on the up and up, even tho samsung hosed us.....
as in the video does ur hdmi output crop the mirroring also?
Nope i think that was that guys TV mine is fine but i do have display settings on my TV...
so did you have to break the dock or anything to swap the parts? this has me interested but want to know what I am getting myself into lol
No the 7" dock comes in two pieces and the 10" dock pops right apart..
I think the fact that it so easy and it goes right together is what piss me off so much why not just sell this to start......
hahah that is awesome, least I know I can get full HDMI dock now for about 60$
thanks for all the info
And by the way i only paid $28 for the 7" dock at the veizon store...and make sure you get the two part style .... there is a all in one dock for the 7" you dont want that.
do you have a part number?
EDIT: I am 99% sure it is ECR-D980BEGSTA least newegg pics show it in two pieces and that is the model on there.
And fyI for anyone that doesn't already have the official hdmi connector is 40 bucks so this maybe a cheaper alternative that they don't want us know about and this is the only way to charger and watch HDMI.....

That's the whole point of this thread there is no hdmi connector in that dock you have to purchase a separate 40 dollar piece that is currently unavailable at this time..
Sorry got confused.
Because it said on the newegg specs.
Port specs
3.5mm Stereo Audio Line-out
HDMI Output
30-pin Dock connecto
It's all good I saw the ad thought I can get the dock with a connector I was very pissed when i found out it did not have the hdmi connector
yeah I bought the 10.1 dock as well from new egg and they had it listed as the HDMI dock. When I got it I was pretty disappointed I even ordered the HDMI cable as well. Went to buy the 7 from new egg and they wanted nearly 60 bucks for it. So I ordered the e-bay version. Thanks for the tip.
they blotted out the HDMI port.

AppRadio2 from Pioneer

Ok, so did some checking, apparently i need a specific cable to use my phone with the AppRadio2,
And an app called ARLiberator...checked the market and it is 35 frikkin dollars for the app.
Is this serious? 35 dollars? Holy cow, i could understand 10 bucks, but 35 dollars for an app?
Before I go any further with this, are there any Note 2 users out there with Pioneer's AppRadio2 and the Note 2 combined that would like to share feedback?
35 damn dollars.....better iron my shirts, cook breakfast, and wash my car every saturday lol
Seriously, any users out there that can shed some light on how it works would be great.
That's cheap. My boy bought the radio and had to buy cable from them and it was like 80 bucks
Well there is a proprietary 11 pin connector we need for our Note 2 to work with it.
Honestly I was just shocked at an app being 35 dollars. Makes me wish there was a free version so i could trial it out and see what I would be working with on my Note 2 and that AppRadio.
(I have the Pioneer AVH-8400BH, which only works with iOS. which is why i wanna get the Appradio if this app really unlocks the awesome potential...)

Tried their cable, the cable they want me to use, which is the one you listed, is a 5 pin cable, which doesn't work with the Note 2. In fact the cable works with VERY few phones.
I think i may have found a solution, if it works, i'll post it up so if anyone runs into the same situation they have a place to hopefully get things fingered out.

I thought you had to get a Samsung mhl that connects to the phone
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
The connector they sell is only a 5 pin, which is why their supported android list is very slim, SGS2 and such, the new Samsung phones use a newer 11 pin Micro USB so the MHL cable for the pioneer kit doesnt work, you have to get the adaptor that converts from 5 to 11 pin.
Mine should be here on tuesday. Outside of XDA im still researching and figuring out what works and what doesnt, and the MHL adaptor that pioneer sells absolutely does not work out of the box with our note 2 or the S3.
I have heard some people complain that the phone slows down because of the demand the connection puts on to mimic the phone on the headunit, but the Note has more power than it knows what to do with so that shouldn't be a problem.

One source for a not too expensive MHL adapter
FWIW, while I know there are cheap MHL connectors on Ebay, I just bought one at Frys for $25 that had a little adapter for the S3/Note 2. Worked just fine with my TV.

I found that with my Note 2 I had to use the little adapter, which implies that all the pins we need are in a regular 5 pin just not accessible on the Note 2.
Note that the MHL adapter only works if you provide power to it via the microusb port, and one thing that someone mentioned in one of the Youtube videos was that the power requirements of the Note 2 was kinda high. He initially used a garden variety power source, but got bad cutting out, and when I tried mine at home I had the same results when powering from the computers USB port. Switching to the Samsung power source that came with the phone fixed it.
I think the Pioneer car kit linked above would work if we had the little 11>5 pin adapter, and might actually provide enough power, since it looks like it has direct to 12v connections. I'll probably just go to the local electronics parts shop and buy a 12V>2a 5v voltage convertor, or just build one, but if I didnt have the MHL connector already I'd consider the Pioneer one and finding the 11>5 pin adapter.
The nice Samsung computer dock would probably also work, and hold your phone.
