Received HDTV Adapter from Verizon for Wifi Tab

Received HDTV Adapter from Verizon for Wifi Tab. Ordered from Verizon retail store last week and received today. Working as expected, mirroring everything. Takes standard HDMI cable. Need to connect traveler charger which came with gtab on one side of HDTV adapter to start display on TV or Monitor. Videos seems better than Gtab 7 with hdmi dock but picture is little bit cutting on the TV display. Tried all settings on TV but cant't fix it. I have US retail Rom on it. Adding some pics of the Adapter.

hey bro. Can you post a link to where you found that adapter. I can't find it anywhere e

I was hoping you wouldn't need to plug in the charger to be able to use the adapter as it makes the use of it a lot more inconvenient. I'm seriously dissappointed. Bad Samsung! Bad!

hey task650 i was unable to shop it via websites that's why i went to Verizon store in NY and the salesman ordered for me in the store and gave me receipt and told me it will ship via FedEx and the shipping is free. It's a 2 day delivery time because i ordered it on Thursday last week and received it on Monday. You can check maybe they have it in Verizon store now. CazeW yes the charger should be plugged into HDTV adapter in order to display on TV. First it seems inconvenient but then i thought for GTab 7 i need to plug the whole dock to display on TV. But i also want adapter to be used without charger.

This seems to be standard practice for MHL output. Every MHL device I've seen had the same requirement.

But it still feels kinda silly that the chip can't draw its power from the tab as I doubt it really needs that much juice.

That's why the 7" Galaxy Tab dock is a better buy as it has hdmi and a stand.

hi
is the gtab charging while the wallplug is attached to the hdmi out?

The need to plug in a charger to get HDMI out is just, for the lack of a better word, stupid.
At home I may have my setup with a dock and HDMI connector. But I want to be able to quickly connect the tablet to a TV, beamer or stereo when im on the go and not search for a wall outlet or even carry my charger with me just to show a few pictures or a movie.
Are you still on stock 3.1 have you flashed one of the TW ROMs? I hope this can be changed via an update because this requirement would make the HDMI adapter almost useless for me.
Edit: I just saw the picture of the manual. It seens I have to wait for an aftermarket solution or don't buy an HDMI adapter at all.

Yes the gtab charges while wallplug is attached to hdmi out. Now i am on original TW from samsung and still needs charger to display on TV.

I'm thinking of buying a small external battery to plug in when I want to use the HDMI adapter. Anyone tried if that works?

so I just went to a verizon store and they couldn't order it for me. But I am passing one more so I am bringing my tab in and showing them your picture as proof to have them try harder .
::edit::
Ok and that just worked lol they ordered it for me after looking at your picture like oh damn now I can't say no

That's good you did that. Most of their staff did not knew when i was asking about the adapter and they were showing me all sorts of hdtv stuff and finally one store able to help me out. So they charge you $39.99 plus tax right? Shipping is free.

Cazew good idea but i never thought of that so never used that configuration. But you will need strong battery right? Because i bought external battery for the iPad and the iPad never charges from the external battery maybe because power was not strong enough on the battery. Battery power capacity is 1900 mAH, Input : 5V 800mA, Output : 5V 500mA.

yea 39.99 plus tax with free 2 day shipping. I wonder if I ordered it with the other accessories I got recently if I would have gotten a discount on it like I did on them (thunderbolt case and dock charger)

To charge the Tab (and iPad) the external battery has to have an output of 2A at 5V (or get one of those charging cables from Ebay). I'm suspecting though that to use the HDMI adapter with an external battery you don't need that kind of output. If you still have that battery, would be great if you could test if it works with the adapter.

Thanks foe the information. Will stop by Verizon and order.

Anybody with the adapter notice any slowdown once mirroring? I'm getting some lag (in all apps) and white speckles (noise) on the tv screen (but not on the tab). Running latest rooted tw.

Not sure what MHL is but the Motorola Xoom's built-in HDMI miniconnector connects directly to a TV without the need of an external power source. Why couldn't they have made the Tab do this also?

Here's a list to get the adapter for a better price than Samsung.

I'll let you guys know how it went when I receive my adapter.

thoughts on HDMI/MHL

Engadged says the galaxy nexus has the same chip for MHL/HDMI as the galaxy s 2 and infuse 4g. Strange most people don't report it. Also being a google device I thought that everything on the phone would have its API for developers but I found nothing on android 4.0 reference about video output or multiple screen.
Older nexus were well documented in functionality or not?
I'm thinking if it could become a portable media center

https://twitter.com/#!/romainguy/status/127449572845957120

What is the XDA recommended MHL adapter? I'm assuming they are not going to add this into the box with the Nexus.

Probably samsung mhl is best bet. I think it can be had for $29 on amazon. Monoprice sells one and most reports have been good. A lot of people dont like the t action going on with the usb cinnection on it though.
I voided my warranty and your nexus.

Does MHL support analog audio output? Or is it digital audio via HDMI only?
EDIT: should've done some reading, looks like MHL supports digital audio only. But the Galaxy S apparently does have an analog audio line out sent using the same wires as the USB connector when it detects it's connected to the Samsung dock. I wonder if the Galaxy Nexus can do the same...

Yes, the one sold for the Galaxy S2 should work. If one wants a cheaper alternative they can check out this one from DealExtreme. The manufacturer claim they are using Samsung chips according to DX staff. One could throw in a USB OTG cable as well since I assume that won't be included in the box either.

I am thinking of getting the Micro USB to HDMI MHL Adapter from monoprice. According to the description you can charge the phone at the same time.

Because you have to connect to the power adapter. On my sgs2 however it seems to consume more energy than supplied. I have the original samsung not that.

Even if uses more energy than supplied, the loss will still be slower. As for the nexus, i am at least hoping it will break even since omap has a dedicated iva3 chip.

Hdmi and charging
I have received it in the post this morning , thought it would be as simple as just plugging it in like it was on my sony arc. Nothing seems to be happening . Has anyone else got a mhl adaptor to work ?

I have got it to work. Had to plug the charger in too. Donut. Lol.

So how does this work exactly? Sorry I've never seen the setup before. There is just one cable right? Is it split at the end to provide to outputs? One for the TV and one for power?

The ones i've seen is a micro usb cable that goes to a small box where there is another micro usb plug(for non-mhl compatible displays, mhl compatible displays should apparently be able to work without the extra power) and a HDMI plug.
Here's an example of one: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/micro-...2-i9100-i997-htc-g14-z710e-p510e-black-104139

I got the SGS 2 MHL adapter and it didn't work at first. I rebooted the phone and then it worked.

I was going to order an adapter from amazon last night but rethinking it im going to wait until the end of the month and get the desk dock which will have mhl support built in and has an hdmi port on the side for connecting to a tv or monitor.
Still ended up getting an HDMI lead from amazon for 49p though lol .

Best MHL HDMI Adapter on the Market

Hey guys,
I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I am looking for an MHL HDMI adapter for my HDTV. I don't mind spending cash if it means I get the best quality, best picture and best sound from this piece of hardware. Otherwise, should I find out that MHL HDMI adapters don't make a difference then I will defiantly go for the best bargain. Which would you guys recommend, given these circumstances?
Thanks!!

HDMI is digital, which means that poor equipment would affect your signal only after meters of distance.

Thanksss

I got SKIVA from amazon some time ago and it works flawlessly.
The only problem is that many apps don't work in landscape more only portrait which becomes annoying.
You can even pair a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard to it.
Also you need your phone to be attached to a high power outlet because the battery gets drained fairly quickly.

I had a Samsung MHL to HDMI Adapter and it went out on me. Probably because it wasn't a real Samsung or for older phones. But I just tested Menotek last night and it worked flawlessly as well. Never tried SKIVA but I would also like to know which one is the best....

this cable makes the picture / video is displayed on the TV with the resolution 1080p?

One thing I would like to add is video isn't as smooth as it should be. I think that's because I was trying to play 1080p from phone to monitor over the cable.
I don't think my GNex is powerful enough to handle that over HDMI although it plays 1080p fine which are stored in the phone.

I use an original Samsung MHL Adapter. Works beautifully. Microusb goes into your phone and a standard full sized hdmi cable goes into the other. However, there is a microUSB IN port where you need to supply power to the adapter too. I use my external battery pack to power it.
Cost me like $15 from Deal extreme. Quite happy with it.

I have/use the official Samsung OEM MHL adapter too, $7 on eBay from China! Woo!
The problem, and I guess this is MHL adapters in general, the way the GalNex/Android is set up, but the screen has to stay on to display to the TV, obviously it's a necessity for navigating, but like with Netflix one should be able to shut off the screen.
Anyway, watching Netflix at least, battery drains slowly when plugged in, major flaw IMO... anyone else have this issue?

What about a MHL ADAPTER that'll work with Galaxy Nexus and Nexus7?
I got a generic mhl from amazon that was advertised as Samsung branded but wasn't. It works okay with gnex but not nex7. It requires a micro USB power source while plugged into the phone, so I'm able to use it indefinitely.

AFAIK Nexus 7 doesn't support mhl. Sorry
I just use a cheap no-brand mhl I bought on gmarket (Korean shopping site), it has a plug for power in to the adapter near the HDMI plug. Works perfectly with my gnex and my wife's Optimus LTE 2.

Correct me if I am wrong but pretty sure nexus 7 doesn't have any kind of mhl support or drivers. This kept me away for it and Google wants us to "stream" content therefore no support. I hope nexus 10 will have mhl support.

Are you complaining about the battery drain using MHL adapter during playback??
If yes than that is not a flaw, check which wall charger you are using, i am guessing it's 0.5A or 1A.
I use a 2A charger while using MHL support which instead of draining the battery, charges it so i suggest you look into that, infact i use 2A charger all the time for charging. Some say that it decreases the life of the battery but it charges the phone fairly quickly.
2A wall chargers cost around $4 on ebay.

Samsung HDTV Adapter + CyanogenMod 12 Android Lollipop
Good afternoon
I have recently bought the original Samsung HDTV adapter for my Galaxy Nexus and there is a thing which interests me so much that I need to ask if anyone of you has ever found the answer for such a question, i.e. 'is this adapter compatible with the custom ROM or is it just the stock ROM that would work with this ROM?
Any feedback highly appreciated :good:

you could do that way too, itll probably end up saving you $10 in the looong run. Or you can just buy the right, one cable, and not have as much hardware to connect and hiding. Not sure if that even matters for you but the wire mess can get out of control quickly.

Hit up monoprice for the 11-to-5. Theirs work just fine for cheap.

I live in a small apartment and my living room is pretty small. I got the idea to connect a 10-15 ft micro usb extension from my tv using this adapter. does anyone know if a length like that will affect charge performance? how about HDMI performance as well?

I believe so. The hdmi is for the video/audio, and the USB is for charging, so you would have to connect to two ports, then you can plug into your micro USB in your phone. Most smart tv's nowadays have usb and allow for charging, so this is convenient as it will be right near the hdmi. I don't think they allow to charge with the tv off though, in case you were wondering like me. (Was planning on using this as my main charger, but not if tv has to be on to charge lol

Have you tried different HDMI cables?

Yup, I've tried 3 different HDMI cables of varying lengths. My only thought is to try a different TV... but that's kind of useless as I wanted to use it on the living room tv which is actually brand new in itself (only 1 month old). All of my other HDMI devices have no problems, but this is totally broken.

Is there much lag using the Slimport adapters?
I measured my wife's GS3 today through MHL by recording a running stopwatch app and the lag was minimal at 0.04s which made me think it would be great for gaming on the big screen. Thing is I found that when I ran an emulator the lag seemed to increase to a point where games were unplayable.
I'm thinking of getting a slimport for my nexus 5 for gaming mainly as I thought the delay would be a lot less than Miracast but I read somewhere that not only does the slimport affect any lag time between the phone and TV but also the TV itself. Just wondering if anyone our there has used the slimport or miracast for gaming with success?

I have not used it extensively (for gaming) but I have used it with a game called Beat Hazard and it works very well. Also works without problems with a game called Waking Mars. I have not played for more than 10 minutes mind you. I use the video output for XBMC (movies), which works splendidly.
