Help with MHL HDMI Adaptor - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

So when I connect the phone to the adaptor and then the TV it works fine. When I try to stream a video on Hulu or sprint TV it disconnects. Any help. Non rooted at this point.
Edit [Resolved] kind of. It will not work because of copyright issues. Confirmed with Hulu.

Idk the answer but are you asking about the shooting galaxy s3 or the nexus 4?

Is there any software that goes with the MHL for compatbility? I don't use it so shooting in the dark here.

I have not tested this yet with my GS3, but with the EVO and it's HDMI capabilities, it would not allow you to output to HDMI anything but photos and home videos. It may be a copyright thing blocking you from displaying sprint TV or HULU.

It is a gs3. Still not working

Not sure what you mean.. there's two major ways to stream content to a TV. 1 use a mhl adapter and an HDMI cable to connect it to your TV.2 use a dlna app from the market like skifta to stream content to a dlna certified TV. Hope I answered you're question.

Thank you for your support. However I wanted to know that I cannot see any setting on my phone for tv out. Like in the sgs1 there is an option under display settings which needs to be checked pal or ntsc before continuing tv out..

There is no such thing on the galaxy nexus. Using the mhl adapter will not require this at all. All u need is an HDMI cable and the adapter and it will automatically output video and audio to the TV.

Alright Thankyou for the information!

Unless you are referring to a component, composite or s-video only tv. If that's the case I don't think there is an economic option without an hdmi converter. Even then im not sure if it would work. Id be interested if anyone knows of any proven hardware that would work for those non-hdmi tv's.

Playing movies from my phone to ps3/TV via USB

Hey just trying to find out if the Samsung Galaxy Nexus can play movies directly to a TV using USB? Or through my PS3?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
using an MHL adapter you can plug right into a TV with HDMI.
Thanks mate. I'll see if I can get one at IT shop. I'll be cheering if it works!

You can also stream to your PS3 or Smart TV with DLNA applications (iMediaShare or similar).
OK that works but only with wifi.
Can't believe my Samsung TV will recognize an iPhone and not a Samsung nexus.
Cheers for the help tho every1

You could go this route:

Read review and make sure the one you're buying works for the Note 2 or S3.
I have one from my ol' S2, bought an adapter for my Note 2 and it works like a charm!
Nope.
You need the mhl adapter like others suggested unfortunately. Unless you can find one locally than there is nothing you can do.
You need an mhl cable. More specifically the one from samsung because they made ours non standard.

Or get smart dock which had hdmi out.

Thanks guys. Just didnt make sense. I could view my pictures on the screen but not broadcast netflix to the tv. I plugged it up to my blue ray player and lime I said I could see my pictures and videos just not netflix.

needs to be an 11 pin MHL HDMI output adapter...

Netflix video output low res and compressed!

I have a MHL hdmi adapter and it works great with everything but netflix. I really want to use it for netflix but the video looks horrible on the TV. Again everything else out of the phone looks great. Games, movies, web browser. Just for some reason netflix wont output correctly. Any ideas on how to make this work? Thanks.
I have the same problem

it's just the Netflix app. Other devices suffer from this issue as well. I've seen a video where the Galaxy S3 did it as well.
I have a ASUS Infinity Pad (TF700T) which is running Android 4.1.1 too, and Netflix doesn't do it. The big difference between it and the GN2 it uses a microHDMI instead of MHL.
Same problem here with both the smart dock and the samsung mhl cable.
Netflix does NOT have this problem on the evo lte which uses mhl*.
* Regular standard 5 pin usb mhl not this retarded non standard proprietary special 9 pin samsung thing they somehow get to call mhl even though it's a completely different spec.

Sorry misremembered. You're right 11 pin.
A standard 5 pin mhl cable does not work on the note2.

Yeah I looked it up just in case and yeah they use a different pin setting but turns out better for us since we can use the features of the smart dock

Tv Out?

I was just wondering, does the note 2 support analogue tv out (via headphone jack) like the galaxy s?
I have a none hd tv in my bedroom but can't figure out how to watch movies from my phone on it.
I already have the tv out cable from a nokia 5800 which also worked on my old n8.
Kind regards
Chiller.

You need a mhl to hdmi for the note 2 (samsung) i buy it in a phone store for 30 euro's the original one
Online there are much sites where you can buy it
Sorry for my english i do my best xD

No not hdmi... my bedroom tv is from the stone age, I am asking about analogue tv connection through the headphone socket. The Galaxy S has the feature, I just want to know if the Note 2 can also do it and how.
U can buy the mhl to hdmi converter... Then a hdmi to rca converter. That'll do. Most crt tv uses rca cable. That's the yellow red White cables.

Do you have the cable, phone and tv? Try it yourself.
Otherwise ask in the question section.
I tried it. It wont work. Only the sound. No screen. U need mhl for this. Your said cable won't work with note 2

Getting to the point, No.
You have to get an MHL adapter for the microusb port.
