Which one did you get (link?), just curious why they didn't work. I typically used all kinds of android and apple chargers with my Note 2, but as you know Samsung likes to make it universal (and also to p!ss off Apple ). I don't have experience with HTC One, but probably going with brand names like Anker where it has one port specific for Apple and the other one for Android. Perhaps the one you got before was "universal" with apple port so your HTC One didn't like it?

I need an MHL adapter ASAP. Does anyone have any experience with this MHL adapter?
Thanks!
EDIT:
What about this one! http://www.amazon.com/Skiva-Adapter...F8&qid=1341247731&sr=8-5&keywords=mhl+adapter
I have that one. It's worked with both a LG G2X and a Samsung Galaxy Note. I think most devices need to be hooked up in sequence for it to work properly (charger first then HDMI, or vice versa).
Edit: Oops, I meant Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket, not LG G2X (that one had its own HDMI out). Too many devices last year...
The reviews from people owning the Galaxy Nexus state that it has awful performance.

Do you experience any choppiness or anything of that sort?

I just noticed the extra reviews. I need one for vacation, and this was one of the top ones on Amazon. If this doesn't work, I can always return it. That's not a problem. I just really need one.
Do you have any recommendations for MHL adapters on Amazon?
What about the other one in my OP?
I have the Skiva one. Works well. I PM'd you about it.
If you need one "ASAP" why not just run down to the TMobile store and pick one up.
I just bought one off of monoprice, 9 dollars. I'm sure by reviews it will work fine and monoprice has never failed me.

I don't have a TMobile store near me at all, and plus, I'd like to not pay out me butt cheeks. I need one by tomorrow and I figured I could use Amazon and get it for cheap with one day shipping with my Prime account.

That's too expensive when I toss in shipping. I would definitely have checked them out if I would have thought about this sooner. Sadly, I just thought about it last night, but I was busy with work.
Title says it all.
I've purchased the device about a week ago and I noticed it just now(after searching the web about the scrolling issue, which apparently caused by using a 3rd party charger).
Did someone else encounter this? Is that normal? If not, What should I do?
No it isn't. May of been imported from China (Hong Kong) for cheap, and sold to you and many others. Just google 'eCell', the fraudulent company selling on Ebay. Anyway, as they use different plugs they either give you no charge or one like you have. Any Chinese writing anywhere?
Okay I did some more Google research apparently a lot of retailers here(Israel) put a samsung charger for some reason.

All over the box and on some of the stuff inside. I didn't think it's strange because HTC is a Chinese company after all.

If it's all over the box, i think you've been had. Call HTC customer services, give them the imei and they'll tell you where it's from. Alternatively check your cid. Is it htc__622? Get cid checker from the store.

Install and check what ro.cid is.
@Op,
In the xda hox general section everything is possible.

It's a Taiwanese company, so the Chinese writing didn't come off as weird to me.
Anyway switching the HOX chargers seems like a common practice here. The only place that sells original HTC chargers is the official importer. I think I'll just buy it from them.
So in your country it's normal, 'your own question answered'. Well done!

Hong Kong has "British socket" and electronics are not much if any cheaper here. They're cheap in Shenzhen.
If you want to purchase on ebay, I recommend rose528400, as that is where I purchased my phone from. As far as I know, the phone is near flawless. Now that I checked it, the international version has become surprisingly cheap. Not trying to advertise here, thanks.

That is wrong. The touch screen bug is caused by a dirty power connection. My house power connection would work fine and the touch screen works very well but at my work (which is a very old building) I have tons of touch screen bugs because of the dirty power connection.

...so the charger can affect this, depending on whether it has noise filtering.

afaik its not the charger that filters, should be the phone (i base this on the fact my dhd doesn't have problems with both htc chargers), whereas the hox has problems with both .
after repair (and update to 2.17), the problem went away, but since i flashed viperx and faux kernel, the bloody problem came back! it hardly does it with my original charger, but really bad with the dhd charger (both original htc ones)
has anybody with proper cables tried hooking up the gnote2/smartdock to a motorola lapdock? that would be friggin' awesome if the lapdock completely works with a hdmi cable and the keyboard/trackpad if functional with a usb from the smartdock. i really have no interest in the smartdock as i have mhl already so the smartdock would be redundant for me in the few situations i use mhl but if it works with the lapdock then a whole bunch of possibilities arise and my laptop would probably never ever leave the house.
so anybody know, tried, working on it, interested etc.? i was planning on selling my atrix/lapdock soon but seeing i need to order a couple things from samsung this week i am thinking of trying it. the thing is though, the smartdock has been unavailable on their website and $100 is too expensive for me to just experiment for hahas. if it becomes available and i can snatch it for $50 with a half off coupon then i will order the other cables necessary to try.
I would be interested in this as well. There is another new thread asking about it (though yours in newer).

Thanks. Didn't see that. Problem is finding a smart dock now. Amazon has no stock. There are 2 on eBay at let me empty your bank account prices. Samsung has no indication if and when these will be back in stock. So now the question remains... anybody want to sell their smart dock for a reasonable price so I can test this?
Sent from my GT-N7100
Supposedly the dock will be back in stock mid February. It is likely amazon will have it a few days before Samsung's website has it though. Don't ask me why.

The only thing putting me off ordering the 10 is the lack of IR blaster which I use daily on my M9 and previous HTC's.

Has anyone tried something similar to this on their HTC 10 with any success?
Now that is cool. At this price I would still try it.

I'd still like to get some feedback from someone with an HTC 10 that has bought such a device and can confirm it works.
So nobody with an HTC 10 has solved the problem of it having no IR blaster it would seem?

It's not a problem. I use my TV's remote. Be nice to have, but without it it's not a life-altering event.

I use my LG App. As long as my 10 and my television are within the same Wireless LAN I simply don't need an IR blaster any longer
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA Labs
I was disappointed with the removal of the IR Blaster, I loved it on the SGS4, M8 and M9.
However, looking back I can count the number of times I used it on each device. It was great to have when needed, but just that, when needed and that wasn't much.
It's not something that was a game changer when choosing the device for me.
I'd like to have it and would consider checking out something like the above for when I may need it. (however the shipping said up to 55 days, with no tracking.. I'd like to find an alternative site to purchase from)

May be a little late, but i recently bought this item and technically it's working but the signal is so weak it's unusable. You need to put the phone right in front of the ir reciever to get it working.

There are better 3.5mm ir blasters that work. And some advice, if you are buying the 10, go for the silver or red variant, the black one is so prone to scrathing and paint chiping. Other than that, the phone is great, you won't regret it.
I have a similar IR blaster but is far away from the functions and precision from my previous M9 and M7. It uses an app called ZaZa Remote which hasn't the features that Peel has like the shows that are passing in the moment.
It also have precision issues and the distance range is very poor. You need to disable Dolby Audio in order to work "properly".
I wouldn't recommend it but considering cheapness of the device and that is the only option, go ahead and try it yourself, maybe you have more luck than me.
Hi,
This may be a dumb question, but....
Can I use my old Samsung Chargers with my Note 10+?
I have chargers lying around for the Note 8,Note 7, Note 5,and two editions of the Galaxy Tab A (and probably others).
I know they would not charge as fast,but it would be convenient. I just want to make sure it wouldn't cause problems.
Please be kind.
P.S. Does anyone know why in my Windows 10 Chrome browser, the Title and Tags boxes are grayed out,making it impossible to start a thread there?
Yes. Old charger works fine.
