Hey has anyone found an hdmi adapter that works for the note 2014?

I think every mhl adapter should work.

here is an english review for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYdgY7uLa3Q
I'm gonna order this one. Since it comes with a 11pin adapter and works with the S4 it should also work with our note 10.1 2014.
I decided to get it because it has USB host and HDMI all in one adapter. Sadly it needs power to output HDMI, but my TV has 3 powered USB ports anyway so it should be no issue.
Gonna update here once i get the package

Anyone come across a solution that doesn't require ext power?

Works just as expected. Happy with my purchase.
-USB OTG doesnt require external power works well, speed is high enough to watch movies from USB sticks.
-HDMI needs external power, and works out of the box. Connect and good to go.
But Android really needs some HDMI out options... My TV defaults to 1080p ->24hz<- which is just terribly choppy... I'd prefer 720p 60hz or something if 1080p is too much (shouldnt be since the tablet runs at even higher res/60hz all the time).
Is there a way to change HDMI output signal on the tablet? I didn't find anything.
Another weird thing, the same adapter is not working for my Galaxy S3. No idea why.

Hi all, I'm looking for a similar solution but I'm not very clear on the distinction between the 5 and 11 pin models etc, so finding it hard to make a best guess on what will work for the 10.1 2014.
I tried this because ideally I wanted to go from micro usb to VGA for flexibility:
http://dx.com/p/micro-usb-male-to-vga-female-audio-mhl-adapter-cable-for-samsung-htc-white-233333
but it didn't work.
Giving up on the VGA element and sticking with HDMI, would this have a better chance of success? :

Any thoughts appreciated

I bought this from Amazon and has the same configuration as yours but does not seems to work. It does not charge the note. The usb stick and ext hdd are not detected even with attached power.I'm using Total Commander for reading NTFS.I'm not a tech but I have a gut feeling that the S3 adapter is not suited for our note. You can use it for HDMI but I tried it on my charger and it does not charge the device.http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00HNEKZZQ/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

MHL Adapter for Nitro HD

Now for all you Nitro HD users who didn't know that it is possible to stream video through the Micro USB port, well yes you can That port is actually a MHL port (Mobile High-def Link), which combines both Micro USB and HDMI features together, and all you need is a MHL adapter to connect your phone to your HDTV and stream movies while having your phone charged.
Now my question goes to those who know about these things. Any idea which MHL adapter is compatible with this phone, or can we use any adapter from any maker? And also, has anybody tried using the MHL capability on this phone?
Well, one would think it wouldn't be proprietary based on the fact that all MHL enabled phones use this as a standard now. I have used a MHL cable from an HTC Raider on a Galaxy S II and it worked just fine.
Does anyone else hear a slight grinding/grainy noise when you plug in the Micro USB? It always makes me feel like I'm breaking it.
any mhl adapter should work.
i use the mhl adapter from samsung infuse and it works! but remember to plug in power for it to works.

plug in power? what do you mean? I thought the whole idea behind mhl is that your phone will get charged via hdmi while streaming through it.

I think if the tv supports mhl mode then you don't need to plug in power.
If tv just has hdmi port then you need to plug in power.
The mhl adapter has microusb port for power input.

Which one and where?
Mine should be arriving on Thursday - just grabbed one of the many off amazon...
So my bro got me an Accell MHL adapter for Christmas and I'm finding it doesn't work with my phone. It doesn't even provide a charge. I'm thinking its physical dimensions are such that the connector into the phone doesn't go in far enough (kinda LG's fault for making the port recessed, kinda their fault for making the connector so damn fat). So, if you guys find one that works for cheap, do you think you could hit us with a link?
TL/DR, Accell's doesn't work, please post ones that do

it needs power for mhl to works. did you try to reboot the phone after you plug in mhl and power input for mhl? i tried on samsung infuse mhl adapter and it works!
Yeah, I provided power and performed every possible sequence of hooking it all up that I could think of and also rebooted several times. I really think it's the form factor of the Accell connector combined with our slightly recessed port that causes it to not go in far enough. I just need someone to give me a suggestion of a brand to buy that they know firsthand works well with our P930.

This looks very affordable. Question though, can it be used to watch let's say catch up tv, or netflx as well?, cause at the moment am working away from home, and we have television that supports hdmi, but no digital service, so was hoping to show this off, to my colleagues.
So would this be like using the Media Link but not wirelessly?

I think so, i ordered one yesterday so ill make a little video when it arrives, show how it works
So got it today, already used it in the 40' HDTV we have in the office and works fine. But it does need a USB connection also for power, which is fine.
I played a 720p movie on the phone and it looked fine, the picture lost a bit quality, but it works.
Can't complain for £6! Does the job

I haven't used the media link, so I don't know the picture quality. But the adaptor I bought works fine
I'm using the bizlink mhl cable on a Samsung le40a559 and it works fine IF you set it up right.
1. Connect HDMI to tv.
2. Connect HDMI to mhl.
3. Connect power to mhl.
4. Wait for tv to search for signal.
5. Connect mhl to phone.
If you connect in any other order it seems to cause headaches at least mine did. Outputting in 1280 x 720p @ 60hz. Noice.
All I need now is root so I can pair my ps3 sixaxis and Shadowgun is getting pwnd.

I picked up an mhl cable for the samsung galaxy series of phones from ebay last week, charges the one x and plays everything from the screen straight to the TV via HDML, works great. Tried posting a link but less than 8 posts but worth looking on ebay for though.
i'm curious if anyone has found an mhl adapter that will working without needing power.

i don't think its possible. the port on any hdmi output (ie bluray etc) would need to have some sort of power source, the mhl doesnt output enough (if any) power to run the hdmi, hence the requirement for a separate power source.
i use my portable charger to run it, works a treat.
Iphones are able to output hdmi with just an adapter, so i dont see why an one x wouldnt be able to.

In order to do this you need an mhl capable TV. Any TV with HDMI will display video but only TVs certified as mhl capable will charge the device via HDMI.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
and if you have a tv with a usb port for flashdrives or external drives next to the hdmi port, would that give power? maybe the output is too low, but it might at least keep the battery from draining right? cause then i could use a short usb cable and avoid having a cable coming from another source. I hate cables but don't trust the media link thing to work well, i've read that it uses some kind of compression for video, and that is a big no no.
I bought a cheap MHL from ebay and works perfect
Cannot work without power supply...

Did yours work? I bought the same one and it doesn't work, TV recognises the MHL device but the phone doesn't.

I am selling mine, it just doesn't work good with tv's.
On my Panasonic and my Sharp lcd tv it doesn't gives full screen, the edges are cut and that sucks.
Doesn't matter what Screen settings I try, no 100% of the S3 is displayed.
Auto scale, normally is the best setting, but not working out for this adapter.
For gaming it isn't such a big deal, but when your notification bar is only half visible and the apps been cut on the aidea and bottom, that is irritating.
I looked for reviews on Youtube and you will see many people with this problem, also many where it works just fine but the problem is in the adapter or the S3 which isn't working as it should do.

By any chance have you tried this with a USB hub / OTG cable to see if you could hook up a drive AND the MHL adapter?
Thanks!
Two question:
Are there any settings that i have to do first if i wanna connect the phone with my tv?
Can i see immediatly the screen at the boot time of the phone? And see it also in recovery or download mode?
thanks
When you plug in the adapter and connect it with the hdmi cable you will directly see the it, there are not settings for the mhl cable on the S3

This has been tried and it doesn't work.
Latest idea is hooking it up to an MHL enabled tv(meaning power coming this way) and use the USB port on the adapter for otg.

Well that ain't gonna work, the usb has only power as far as I know...
So you can try that, but the MHL adapter is not designed to use it like that. It needs the power via the usb connector.
But maybe, maybe you can get power via tv...

Yeah, newer TVs are designed to charge via MHL, though not sure if the official Samsung adapter supports it.

If you have an MHL enabled tv, the power comes from the tv so the USB on the adapter doesn't need to be used for power, hence I said you could try to connect and otg cable there instead.
It you have an MHL enabled tv then you don't need an adapter but just a cable like this instead

I know, but I don't think the charge port will work as otg....
As far as I know it is only for charge, and doesn't have the rest of the usb working.
I even doubt if when it has a full functional usb port, MHL allows to use MHL both with usb on the same time...

[Q] Motorola Lapdock & Note 2?

Just curious if anyone has gotten the keyboard and mouse working on a lapdock with the Note 2. The HDMI works perfectly, but the keyboard and mouse don't work. I don't know if it is possible, but it would be great if someone knows how to make this happen.
Here's a picture of my set up. Everything is connected so it *should* work. I'm thinking that it is a driver issue.
(The lapdock keyboard & mouse work great with Ubuntu 12.04, & Windows 7, & Raspberry Pi (Raspian), so I know that my connections are fine.)
Thanks!
Hmm, guess I'll be able to answer my own question after a bit of research. It seems that the Note 2 (like the S3) can't provide MHL & OTG at the same time.
Not sure if there is a way around this. I wonder if Samsung's SmartDock works, but I don't want to spend $100 to find out.
I'm increasingly interested in trying just this, smart dock + lapdock. Hard to imagine that it wouldn't work, but I wouldn't mind confirmation if anyone has tried it. The impressive low prices on lapdocks in the secondary market kinda offsets (and also kinda shames) the ridiculously overpriced smart dock.
I wonder if the lapdock's battery can provide as much power as the smart dock needs or if I'd have to have an external battery too.

the lap dock should provide 1 amp which is what the atrix needed and the chargers it came with. the s3 has a smart dock and it too only has 1 amp chargers...
plus I don't see the smart dock pulling more than 200mA it has to provide the s3 with at least 750 mA for the charge to survive mhl.
regardless amp drain in android devices is adaptive. even if the dock needs a full 800mA the phone will try to survive with the rest draining battery of course but working none the less just like trying to charge our 2A monster with a Bluetooth 150mA charger. it will try but at best slow down the discharge

I don't know if an MHL adapter will supply both HDMI and OTG at the same time but I know the phone is capable of it because this is how the Samsung Smart Doc works. 3 USB ports with HDMI out.

I've never gotten a green screen so I have no idea. And, you already did the basic troubleshooting. Are you using the Smartdock or something different? If you aren't using the Smartdock, maybe pick one up to see if it works. If it doesn't fix the problem, you can always return the Smartdock.

Based on what you are saying, it sounds like the issue is between your lapdock & MHL cable. Like I said in my previous post, I'd pick up a Samsung SmartDock and see if it works. Just make sure that yo buy from somewhere that you can easily return it in case it doesn't work.

Dear wilbr,
Thanks for the reply.
Do you use the original samsung MHL cable?...
I am using Chinese version of MHL.

The green screen problem could be due to HDCP non compliance or syncing problem..

Hmm, guess I'll be able to answer my own question after a bit of research. It seems that the Note 2 (like the S3) can't provide MHL & OTG at the same time.
Not sure if there is a way around this. I wonder if Samsung's SmartDock works, but I don't want to spend $100 to find out.

I've already got a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I'm gonna order a MicroUSB to HDMI adapter and go that route. It'll be cheaper and less to carry. When I travel I'll just be able to plug into the hotel TV and go wild!
There's a YouTube video of someone demonstrating it, just search YouTube for "Samsung Note 2 Mobile Desktop with a Bluetooth keyboard mouse"

i had a similar problem, its was a shotty solder job on the "Budget adapter" (HDMI PINS). i took it apart and cleaned it, works perfectly now.
Plug your phone in, WAIT 5 SECONDS, Then lift up.....If you still have a problem, push F11 on the Lapdock... that manual cycles the resolution modes...at least thats what the manual says....
As far as the USB key board goes, im currently working a solution.... you have to power the MHL THROUGH THE DOCKS usb port using a donated USB cable with the end cut, solder it in directly on the board of the adapter itself, then make a micro usb extension that has the power wires cut and D- D+ reversed... I have a motorola ATRIX and im looking at the board, it looks like they have been reversed....ill post up some pics if i find this to be true.

Also, sorry to bring up and old post, but I have a reason to believe that the ZOOM bluetooth keyboard uses the same 30 pin connector thats inside the lapdock (connects everything together) all the connectors are the same, except on the ZOOM the other end is a BLUETOOTH module...this would solve the whole issue... im about to get one on ebay. Ill report back in a few days.

micro usb to HDMI Adapter

Has anyone one bought a micro usb to HDMI adapter that actually work with their tablet? I bought one and did not work so I'm hoping people can recommend a working one. I'm wondering about the MHL 2.0 To HDMI 1080P HDTV Adapter but have not seen any reviews mentioning whether it works on the Note 10.1 2014 edition. Thank you.

I am not sure if this option would work. But maybe Google chromecast would be a better solution. Wirelessly send media to TV through your network with it possibly.

You'll need an 11 pin MHL connector... We discussed it here.

chromecast is a great, inexpensive product but very limited compared to allshare or just using hdmi out.
i've rooted my chromecast and put it back in it's box in storage. that's all i've used it for so far.
