Any working method to enable mhl in kitkat - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I may be kicking a dead horse here but has anyone found a way to enable mhl in KitKat, found my mhl cable laying around and got me wondering. I know it officially has not been on any other Roms than touchwiz. Thanks

Not gonna happen without Touchwiz I'm afraid.
If it could be done, it would have by now.

It all depends on if it's tethered, or untethered jailbreak.

Since we are all sharing stories. I purchased a used 3g last year to see what the big deal was. I spent more than 2 hours trying to jailbreak the crap vecause itunes wouldnt recognize the packages. Once i got it jailbroken i tried unlockinh it and it broke the jailbreak which lead me to start back at stock iphone. I did finally get it to find out the came firmware or hardware had an issue. Ended up scrapping it. I love android

and isnt untethered just a one click.
both are simple for me. All i had to do was the read and follow the tutorial for the device (iphone/ipod touch).
Well after I jailbroke it I found that easy but not knowing cause I've never messed with an iPhone found it more difficult to handle and much easier to flash or anything else themes and stuff

I'm confused. Are you saying doing something you have never done before is harder than doing something you have done before?
If you have an at&t iPhone they now offer their customer the ability to unlock their iPhones

Fortunately I have a nexus s battery from verizon in my phone. I have phenominal battery life. On the other hand my vizio remote is always taking a **** on me.. Just would like a more reliable way of controlling. It should be easy to develope due to the fact that they are both bluetooth devices..

Your tv requires an rf transmitter which the phone doesn't have. UNLESS it is networked and can be controlled over WiFi (like alot of receivers can). But of course you need an app

My Vizio TV has built in wifi also, and I am interested in this too, cuz I broke my remote. And none of the universal ones at your neighborhood electronics store have the Netflix, Amazon, or VooDoo buttons.

This is exactly the reason I requested this app. My remote just randomly stops working.. it would save a headache if a developer would do this. After all the remote is Bluetooth..

Planning on holding off a week or 2 just to get the full experience.
It makes installing a good rom, that much better!

I will be holding off as well. I'm kinda satisfied at the moment with what Samsung has provided. I don't like the bloat and I miss my root apps. But I think I'll be just fine for a month or so.

Been waiting on my sd card from amazon that arrived today. I'm trying to hold off rooting until TWRP is ready.
I'm amazed I've lasted this long without rooting, but like others above I'm holding out until I can 'fully experience' the stock software Samsung tossed out there. I didn't want to drop 600+ on a new phone and not at least give the new stuff a try!

Yeah I was wondering the same thing. I was under the impression that the only way you could get a bad imei is if the phone was lost or stollen.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 2
Well back when the s3 originally came out we had a bunch of people randomly lose their imei. I would show up as just 0. And there was no efs folder to back up because it no longer contained imei.

Man that would be cool... Is funny but 2/4 of my TVs are Samsung and with the wife receiving her lgog yesterday we have no Samsung devices...... She had a s2 was junk.... Huge upgrade for her...IMO... but back to the point. Realizing we don't have the ir is there any type of work around maybe using Bluetooth or WiFi or a hacked Samsung app?
I'm pretty sure we could connect a remote to our device.

If they're telling you that it doesn't make any sense. What if you stop using T-mobile, lose your phone, ect.? If you don't have access to a T-mobile phone with the Tmo TV app you can't cancel subscription?
They are BSing you. Be assertive and talk to their supervisor, they solve my problem and also issues a credit to me.
