Hey all,
Just got my cheapo slimport in the mail from China. Not working... I know I have all the wires hooked up correctly and a compatible TV cuz I use mhl on my HTC one.
Does anyone know if there are issues with custom ROMs and the slimport hookup ? This is the only thing I can think of before accepting the cable is busted and shipping back

Does an mhl adapter work for the epic touch? And does a wireless Bluetooth mouse connect to the epic touch?

Don't know about the mouse, but I got an MHL adapter from monoprice that works just fine.

They all work it's a mhl adapter if one is broke it wont work but it's like a USB cord there is no special one that only works here the ones on Ebay work too

Just wanted to note that if you plan on trying any ICS ROM leaks, you'll lose MHL compatibility. On another note, Blazer ROM 4.0 worked with MHL, and probably Calk's 2.9.2 for EL29.

Just fyi, not all USB cords are created equal. Neither are MHL adapters. If you need proof go look up any thread about using ODIN. Thanks again for your input.

I had been using an MHL adapter almost every day for the past couple of weeks with one of Calk's ICS Roms (E4GT 2 V1). It worked on that one at least.

Works with stock roms.
Cyanogen/AOSP based roms will not work.
Thanks dude I needed a mhl link that's works on ics ROMS.

Those MHL adapters are nice, I also have one that came with a 6' HDMI cable. I get the most out of it when I go out of town and stream netflix to the hotel rooms flat screen via the HDMI.
A cheap but durable MHL link adapter would be awesome

I purchased an MHL adapter from monoprice back in September and it works fine on my E4GT using stock and Calk's GB ROMs. The part# that I ordered is no longer available, but when I did a search for "MHL" on monoprice only one result was found and it looks identical to the one I have.
+1 on the Monoprice adapter... ordered one a few weeks back and it works fine on the stock ROM. Just remember that you still need to plug in to external power.
So stock ics?

If I were you guys I would definitely recommend purchasing a legit mhl adapter. Not the cheepo $10 one. I purchased two separate ones off of Amazon and neither worked. One worked for about a day, then stopped working. The other one never worked at all (it did shock me though, seriously). Get the official Samsung one, as you cant go wrong with OEM.
Does anyone have the mhl cable and have they tried it on cm9/10/aokp? I want to buy one but I want it to work on whatever ROM i'm running.
bump
If anyone sees this thread it works on cm10

I'm guessing it would work. I used samsungs 11 to 5 pin adapter and my current mhl cable.
EDIT: audio doesn't seem to be working for me but it might just be my mhl cable.

Any updates on this issue? I'm looking to get an mhl adapter to connect the phone to the receiver but have no idea what version/which adapter will work with LG OG.

I already posted this somewhere... I've a Energizer MHL adapter that works very well, but I had another OEM that worked too, basically all MHL adapter with 5 pins will work.
So, i want to buy the official mhl to hdmi adapter for galaxy s4 which has a product number : ET-H10FAUWEGWW
Will this work with the galaxy s3 that i want to buy? If yes will it work with any tv?(assuming of course it has hdmi port)
It has to be a MHL enabled TV. At least that's what I've read. I actually bought one of those cables and tested it on my HDTV and it wouldn't show anything at all. I tested on both my Sprint Galaxy S3 and my Nexus 7 FHD.

Could u give me the link where u read it?
The Samsung Galaxy S3 uses MHL
The Google Nexus 7 FHD uses SlimPort
These are two different standards and the cable is not interchangeable.

Unfortunately I'm a new user so I have a few more posts before I can post a link in a reply. But if you go to best buys website and search MHL you will find what I have read. I think I included a screenshot in this reply.
Just because it says it on bestbuys website doesn't make it real. The MHL standard is designed to convert to regular HDMI. Any HDMI TV should work fine with it.
No offense to anyone. But I'm going to take the word of Best Buy's website unless, you have proof besides your say so.

If it says it's for any Samsung Galaxy product it's worth a shot. I don't know anything about MHL really. But the cord I have doesn't work and that's what I'm going off of. And the best buy website. Sorry for any confusion or inconvenience.

The other thing to note is are you running a custom rom. I think the mhl drivers are in the touchwiz frameworks.

There is no such thing as a MHL enabled TV. MHL works on anything HDMI ready. The only thing is if you are running a AOSP based rom, it will not work, right now i only works on TouchWiz.
My MHL adapter works flawlessly on my 2010 Aquos.

Actually, there is such a thing, but it's not that important.
An MHL-compatible TV will supply power (5V/500mA in 1.0, 900mA in 2.0. and 2A in 3.0) to the adapter and charge the phone.
A non-MHL-compatible TV won't do that and you'll have to connect your own charger, but it will work fine otherwise.

So if the tv has an hdmi port and i have a power supply, i should have no problem it seems...
If the only difference is the USB ports are more powerful then I don't see how that has anything to do with MHL.
I have successfully tried my MHL cable on many TVs and I've always used it's own power adapter plugged into the wall.
I have heard there are crappy MHL adapters that do not work though.

Correct. an MHL TV just means you don't need to have a charger on hand, have a free outlet, have a long enough micro USB cable to get to that outlet, etc. etc.
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

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.
