E4gt hooked to a smart tv,how to???

Does anyone know how to do this? The evo did it fine as there was a hdmi port. E4gt should do this. Should it not

You need an mhl adapter in order to connect the E4GT to the TV. You can find them easily online.

Don't forget that it can be done via all share on wireless.

lol yes.. can stream but if you want to mirror phone screen onto tv needs to use the mhl adapter to use hdmi.. i have the adapter but sometimes will use twonky media server on phone or another media server app and use the ps3 to stream through instead of a computer but my tv isnt smart ;-) you should b able to stream straight to your smart tv.. but only your media files unless he uses the adapter

Only downside is you can't charge while using it.

[Q] wired video output?

I'm hoping to find a way to connect my Epic to a TV or video monitor, but so far I haven't found any options. It doesn't seem to support MHL or video from the headphone jack, so are there any other options to get video output from the Epic 4G?
If it helps, I'm running CM9 RC1 with its stock kernel.

No, There is no TV out capabilies on the Epic 4G. You only have Allshare to beam it to a Samsung allshare capable TV.

Nope. There is no TV out drivers to hdmi or rca. Host mode will allow you to connect input devices like usb stick memory, jump drives, stuff like that.

if you get one of the android mini computers that plug into the TV's USB port and turn it into a smart TV, would you then be able to use allshare to push video out of your Epic to the TV? Or even any TV that you plugged the android usb computer into?

It has to specifically support Samsung's Allshare which I think is proprietary on Samsung smart TV's atm
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk

actually Allshare is just samsungs version of DLNA. you dont have to use allshare, there are other DLNA apps on the market, and they all connect together as long as you are on the same network. i have used my epic on a sharp aquos with allshare and it works just fine. i would imagine those mini androids with HDMI would work fine for this purpose.
edit: i just noticed he said he is on CM9. so he doesn't have Allshare anyways. but iMediaShare is one i use on cm9. the free version isn't as good as it used to be, you cant just take a picture and stream it to the TV like you could before, but the paid version lets you do that.

The most important thing for me is being able to mirror my screen on a TV, so I can play my emulators and other games on the TV, not just streaming video files.

Galaxy S III as a PC

Hi guys,
is it possible to connect SIII to TV, mice and keyboard at once? Is there a dock out there to make this possible? Will the mice AND keyboard work through Bluetooth when I connect the SIII to TV via MHL adapter?
Thanks in advance.

does the phone get power trough the mhl->hdmi adapter?

Hi all,
Can somebody confirm that it works and use mhl and bluetooth keyboard and mice? Did someone found dock?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

Yes it works but you need a standalone Bluetooth keyboard/mouse as the hdmi will use the micro sd slot so no dongle.
The hdmi has a slot for the phone charger- in fact it won't work without it

What about a dock? Did anybody found one with hdmi or micro usb output so J can connect mhl kabel?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

Probably too early the cables only been available for a few weeks. Just dont get anything compatible with s2 as samsung changed the hdmi pin arrangement on s3.

Or you can wait for the allshare cast dongle then you can use usb hub with an OTG setup

Hi,
can you pls explain more in details?
Thank you

The setup he means is to use the accesory that Samsung will sell (dont know when), to cast your phone screen to your HDTV (up to 1080p) called "all cast share dongle", this connection is wireless so you will be able to connect a keyboard, mouse and HD...using a USB hub and a USB OTG cable.

hey,
since i found everything needed at home to use the s3 as a pc, i posted this up on my blog. it should help you understand a little more i think.
i also made some pics.

Nice, that is what I am talking about
Is it possible to somehow adjust the resolution on the monitor, because it is just a big copy of your mobile screen.
If it is possible to make the icons smaller? I want to use my phone for browsing and I dont want huge panel in the browser.
thx
Lukas

not really. but for browsing u can use a browser which uses full screen like the stock one, and request desktop sites.

I know its apps where downloaded videos you can share to your tv...but videos im streaming on my phone i wanted to play on my tv i guess the cable you mentioned may be the best bet

Did the mhl work for you? I ran a quick attempt and it wasn't seeing anything. MAYBE I needed to use a different cable and wall plug, I was using one that, it seems now, isn't supplying a lot of power.
Just wanting a confirmation that the mhl works.

You can do this in YouTube app. You need a TV with YouTube though I believe. Not sure how it works though, never felt the need to get it working for me.

mhl converter
Mhl works great. You just need to make sure if you are searching amazon or eBay or whatever you use to make sure it's the one for the s3 or note 2. The cable for the s2 is different for some reason. Allshare hub is ok but gets laggy on anything other than pics and videos you have on the phone already. Trying to stream Netflix from the phone through the hub doesn't work very well at all.

I use my xbox360 to stream stuff from my phone to my tv works flawlessly for music video and images. If you have any other device that supports DLNA that would work as well

I actually use that feature... pretty much go into your tv youtube app and under the sign in part theres something where you share your screen, pretty much go into that and take your tvs code and type it into your phones youtube app and a little button will appear for you when looking at videos on your phone similar to the one in gallery to share pics/vids...
Great for old movies or tv shows on youtube

Just use the mhl adapter. get one from ebay. cost like $10. This is the one I got and it works flawlessly:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/251194581683
Just plug it into the phone then plug in the ac adapter (it needs power) and connect the HDMI cable from adapter to tv and BOOM, a mini power computer. I have a bluetooth mouse and keyboard paired to the phone and it works great. The only thing it would make it perfect is if I can stream the optimum tv app. unfortunately the optimum tv app can detect if you are using an "external" display and it won't show the video on the tv. But you can stream watchespn, hbo go, max go and pretty much any other apps onto the big screen.
I tried to ask if anyone can hack the optimum app to allow it to be used with external display but no one replied.

No one has heard of the app mirrorop. Haven't tried on note yet. But on Asus Transformer Pad TF300T it mirrors your screen exactly but to a PC. (Which I had connected to my TV via HDMI) only downside is doesn't stream audio. Use some Bluetooth speakers. Works well

using mhl update
tv must be mhl compatable or the cable convert to hdmi n not just wires but some actual brain
second. get the 11 pin not the 5 pin mhl adapter or it wont work on note ii. [sgs2 mhl adapter wont work]
Sent from my SGH-T889

Yeah have been using the allshare dongle myself got it with the 50% disount off sammys website.... works perfect for me only problem it doesnt work on anything but stock/rooted rom .... there is a bounty in another thread but not looking to good so for now mhl or the dongle are the best choices out

I use iMediashare.

Hi, I bought a cable off of ebay (red) for $11.00 packaged for the SIII but works fine on my N2, and with my stock 2.0amp charger it stays charged, though is barely charges because of the power drain. But output of both the video and audio come through fine on my vizio tv.
Hope this helps.

Thanks i will try and look into that card the previous cord i got doesnt work at all

For any of you guys who own a Roku media box. You can use the app from the Playstore: Juice for Roku. You just add the Juice channel to your Roku device, install the Android app...connect it to your Roku, then you can stream your Pics (individually or slideshow), and video's all wirelessly to your TV through your Roku.

I use ArkMC app for long time, it works well with my htc desire, you could try

No you need an MHL adapter.

That's what I thought but figured I asked before I bought
