Title says it all. I am planning to buy a MHL cable but I realise that S2 and S3 uses different cables. I know S3 can't use S2's.
But can S2 use S3's?
Anyone? Can help?
Have buy 2 cable for my two SII and my SI and not work SII and SI, ROM CM10.1 both phone

MHL won't work on CM ROMs, its part of Touchwiz for Samsung devices that's why I run Shostock3, a very modified and smooth version of stock 4.1.2.
I'm also curious if the S3 MHL cable will work. I'll ask my friend to try out his with my phone this weekend.

I wouldn't recommend you to buy it
Because the s2 will output in low resolution I will recommend you to upgrade to s3 or something to enjoy it

S1 doesn't support MHL it's tv out is done via the earphone jack to RCA jacks.
My MHL cable (one of the ones that is simply micro usb to hdmi) works for both the S2 and S3 but my screen is MHL certified and doesn't require an additional power source where as my old cable needed power plus the mhl but I aint tested that on the S3. According to wiki though it needs a Samsung specific cable which is weird as it works on my mhl screen.

All that I'm interested in is accessing external storage. Would this work?

From what i understand you need to get that Micro-A version not the B version. I THINK
No it does not work.

That cable specifically, or I have to use a MHL cable?
This one claims to work with GSII

Won't work either way.
That and most cable will work with Galaxy S2 but it won't work with Epic 4G Touch Galaxy S2. Although they are close they are not the same phone.
USB OTG is disabled on the Sprint version of the SGSII. MHL is only to split the USB data from the HDMI stream.
Do you guys know when it'll be enabled? I asked in a development thread for ICS to see if it could be added in the new kernel they are developing for it and got flamed by Jerdog.
I would love to have this as I use it a lot on my Xoom.

It is a really nice feature I use on the zoom as well. It would be nice to get it enabled.
Can anyone verify if the MHL cable works out of the car dock?

That certainly is a bummer. I assume car dock would be the same then. Thanks for answering!
Hey guys.
Just a quick one. I have the official Samsung MHL Adapter and it works on the gnex but I have assumed, and I probably shouldn't, that it would work on other late Samsung android models. Doesn't seem to work on the note 2...
Just wondering if anyone has got it to work and if there's one for one and another for another? Which I'm thinking is the case. Sorry if this isn't part of this particular forum just a random question. It "sort" of related to the Gnex haha.
Thanks in advance.

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
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
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

So I've been using Jovy XTREMEPERIA S4 rom forever and just bought an hdmi adapter. When I plug it in the "connected to hdmi" message doesn't even show up. Anyone else using his rom have this issue?
You might want to try asking in the ROMS original thread.

Did you get a cheap one off e Bay or the samsung official 2.0 mhl adapter with the hologram on the box? There are fakes out there
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
I have the 2.0 real one. It works on my wife's note 3. And I have the original one that worked on my s3. I haven't tested them yet on any other roms . That's my next step. Thanks.
You may have already checked but it is an 11-pin adapter right? The 7-pins don't work on the GS4.
Bought a MHL Cable, the microusb didn't fit with the phone. Any idea what MHL cable does work on this phone?

Sent from my GT-I9195 using XDA Free mobile app
I was thinking of buying one of those red cables... If it is micro USB it should fit. Thinking these are cheap Chinese cables. Maybe it has a faulty connector?
I may try a different one like in my attached picture.
S4 mini doesn't support MHL.
Oh... OK. Well that's cleared that up. ?
Looks like im gonna use these cables on my future Note 3 or S5 ?

The s4mini does support mhl but only with a few cables your best go would be an original adapter from Samsung.

Hmm in my mind, no MHL support means any MHL cables (including Samsung's) is considered useless trash isn't it? Also, there isn't any videos or articles talking abt "S4 Mini on TV" and stuff like dat
Sent from my GT-I9195 using XDA Free mobile app
I always thought it was compatible because of lines I found in the build.prop
#
# System prop for Tvout/HDMI
#
persist.sys.camera.transform=0
persist.sys.camera.connect=0
persist.sys.videomode=0
ro.hdmi.enable=true
But maybe because stock OS for the mini is cannibalised from its big brother S4 it could just be left over crap... I'm gonna bet it's just not going to work. Shame...
