Hi everyone, I bought today a 11pin usb to hdmi which work perfectly (still the bothering screen mirroring but I guess I have to deal with that) my question is if there's a way to change the resolution or something ? Most games I tried was kinda slower and out of sync and also with some strange vsync problems (image cut). Just wonder if there's a program or a script to enable lower resolution to make the work smoother or maybe a soft to put ALL the display to the Hdmi to avoid the mirroring ????
Thanks !

I am considering buying an MHL cable for my SGS2. However, I would like to know what resolution can the phone display on a full-HD monitor or TV?
I have read in reviews that it can output full 1080p when watching videos. But what about using apps (like some office apps, browser) or playing games? Will it run on full HD or on the phone's native 800x480 resolution? What about rotation, will everything work in landscape on the monitor?
This could be a great portable computer (used with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse) if it is able to run apps on the monitor's native resolution. So, what is your experience?
Hi, I have the cable and yes, it is like you said. On movies it will output full 1080 and in application it will use the 480.
Regarding the rotation yes everything can be in landscape depending on the phone position, at least from what I've tried.
This was my idea to, that it could be a portable computer, but ...no.
The resolution, I think, makes me not to use it. In our days we are used to big resolution and in 480 you will be claustrophobic.
And you need the power adapter around you all the time. The cable needs to be powered. It can be powered from the USB on your TV.
I wanted to use the dock with the cable and a bt keyboard/mouse. But the original dock doesn't know data transfer so it can't be used with the cable. The mouse configuration was changed from 2.3 to 4.0 and for me is not practical anymore. You still have to use the phone, for example the back key.
And if I remember well I think when you want to type, the on screen keyboard will appear even if you use the bt one. And in 480 this is half of the screen.
This is my experience.

Thanks a lot, this was exactly the information I needed!
In movies it's only 1080i btw
11pin samsung MHL connection. Using cyanogenmod 10 if it matters. I'm getting significant delay from whats going on in the phone compared to whats outputted on screen. I'm using some emulator games and a ps3 controller connected over bluetooth, and the lag is sufficient enough to make it hard to play. I'm sure the lag isn't a slow running game or the bluetooth connection because I can play the game with the bluetooth controller on the phone screen fine, but the MHL output is where I'm seeing the lag.
I've tested this on my 1080p computer monitor and it works fine, but on my toshiba 1080p TV, I get the lag there. I have read about other people with similar issues, but have not seen any resolution yet. I'm not sure where I should be looking for a resolution either, should it be something changed on the TV input settings perhaps, maybe something that the android ROM needs to control better, or maybe just bad samsung MHL hardware.
I'm doubting its just slow hdmi connection the TV since I have my game consoles hooked up and they play without issue. Wondering if anyone out there has found a solution to this issue.
Also as a side note, does anyone else notice the phone charges very slowly connected through the MHL usb plug, even if your screen is off, and no mirrored image is being displayed?
Can someone make kernel or tell me how to do this, maybe thru some kind of converter or something like that?
1080p/24Hz is chopy for games so maybe this can be done by software or hardware fix??
There is similar kernel but for One S so I belive this can be done for note 2.
Pls help this is realy big issue for mhl/tv output and i didnt find any solution on web how to make this happen on note 2.
I'm to having same issue.
Choppy with the dock. My GNex works so smoothly compared and it's half the phone although it is rooted.
I'd be very excited to known if a custom kernel can fix this. I've posted something similar already in this thread.
Cheers guys.

I hope for the fix to, it a shame that this isnt implemented like and option in stock software. One again please devs or anybody help us with this problem :crying:
Going to try to fix this thru vga pc because in my tv manual says I can select resolution myself thru this input (RGB PC only).
Maybe you too can do something with this.
Well i cant post links so this is what I will test with my Note2:
RED Galaxy S3 SIII i9300 i9308 MHL Micro USB 11pin to HDTV HDMI
HDMI Female to Female F/F Coupler Extender Adapter Connector
Gold HDTV HDMI to VGA HD15 3 RCA Adapter Cable 5ft
When tested will report here... still hoping for kernel modification of some kind...
I have a N7100 and a smart dock this has been my experience:
HDMI -> DVI adapter plugged into a Dell U2312HM via DVI (HDCP compliant):
- Stuck at 720x480 resolution no matter what.
- When mouse and external display is connected there is a drop in frame rate. However, if the mouse OR the external display are connected seperately the FPS remains high.
HDMI cable to my 26" Westinghouse 1080P TV (HDCP compliant but constantly has handshaking issues):
- Appears to display at 1080p or at least scaled up 720p though I set my TV in 1:1 and there are no black bars so I suspect 1080p.
- When mouse and external display is connected there is a drop in frame rate. However, if the mouse OR the external display are connected seperately the FPS remains high.
It seems that there is a bug in the code that has to do with when the phone enters that "desktop mode." There also seems to be a bug when using an adapter for some reason as well. The N7100 seems to act completely differently than my PS3. My PS3 connects wonderfully using the same adapter and the same Dell monitor, no handshaking issues. Though my PS3 to get sound out of the TV's speakers I have to mute and then unmute the TV to get sound anytime the HDMI link is closed and then reopened (starting a game for example). While it seems the N7100 behaves oppositely.
Update on my Gold HDTV HDMI to VGA HD15 3 RCA Adapter Cable 5ft combination is not working the device dont check connection thru hdmi rgb input (no signal or notification of connection). So I belive only hdmi input/output works with note 2. Once again pls help us regarding this option to lock device on 720p output thru hdmi.
man i really need this force 720p playback option as well...
Hi,
I have an Optimus G with a broken digitizer. I have a Bluetooth keyboard/mouse paired with it. I've got it hooked up to a 1080p screen via MHL HDMI. Everything works great... except one problem: the output resolution is 1280x720.
Now, this should be set at kernel / boot time. I'm wondering: is there a way for me to set (or perhaps recompile the kernel) to force 1920x1080? I don't mind if the phone's screen no longer works, as long as the output to the TV is full HD.
Hey guys.
I just bought a Slimport to HDMI adapter (it is about to arrive) and im wondering if i could use my tablet as a media streaming device to my old (not smart) TV, making use of its big screen.
I was planning to attach it to the HDMI port and reproduce the media as usual, but the problem is i wont be able to turn the tablet's screen off without interrupting the transmission to the TV, right?
So i found out that XPosed Framework has a module called XMultiWindow but im not sure it would fit what im trying to do.
Im new in this so forgive me if it is a trivial question
