Hi Guys
I got this SM T210 (wifi only) tab and I'm wondering if this really has a TV-out feature via MHL to HDMI.
It really is not clear for me because some sites says it has but other says it doesn't.
I was wondering if anyone here has the same tab as mine and has gotten this feature working for them.
If it work for you can you please also indicate what model of the cable you are using.
Thanks
The official specs on samsung's site make no mention of HDMI.

Yep, that is why it is really confusing. If you look here at the MHL to HDMI cable here
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/ET-H10FAUWEGUJ-compatible
it clearly says that it is compatible with Galaxy tab 3 7" (Gold brown color w same specs as the white).
and also here on this link
http://www.abt.com/product/71046/Samsung-ETH10FAUWEGUJ.html
if you look at the docs of that cable. it states that this is for all 2013 Galaxy tab 3 devices including the 7" version.
Hopefully somebody has gotten this to work because I really need this feature on my tab.

suggest you buy a MHL to HDMI adapter to test it. If it works, that will be great. if not, you can return the MHL to HDMI to the vendor.

Hi, I am sorry to tell you the bad news. I asked Samsung online service about your question that whether the micro USB port of tab 3 7.0 supports MHL function via live chat of Samsung.com. They told me that only tab 3 8.0 and tab 3 10.1 features a micro USB port with MHL/HDMI functionality like Samsung Galaxy S4，S3 and Note 2.

Aw... Now I don't know what to do with this tab anymore. I really need the MHL tv out capabilities so when I travel I can make this as my Portable TV box.
Anyways. Thanks for all the help. I guess I'll just sell this and buy another tab.
what if you root it or something? would that work?
you can get this to kinda work by putting a kit Kat rom on it. all kit kat roms have miracast. it's not exactly mhl (wireless instead of wired) but it serves the same function

but won't this be updating to kit kat soon anyway? Could we just wait?
Is there "any" way to connect tab 3 7" to external screen?
the thing that makes me puzzled is that all says it doesn't support that while there's already available product made specifically for tab 3 7"
any help? need help fast i have to buy a new tablet tomorrow
if there's no way, what you advice me to buy? the maximum budget is 250$
i want it to support HDMI or MHL, anything else declined
Tab 8 works. Don't think the 7 supports.

Tab7 is the only tab 3 that doesn't support HDMI out. (googled it before I bought my tab 3 10.1)
T110 can use MHL to HDMI ?
But how come there are MHL to HDMI cable set available on ebay claiming that it worked?

Ignorance?!!
It is a hoax
Hi,
I have downloaded DSLR Controller for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 4.1.2 Kernel. I have hooked it up using OTG USB cable to my Canon 600D/T3i camera. Both are compatible according to the website. So why the heck aint it working?
The cables arent cheap ones and the mini USB is the one that came with the camera. When I click the app on my Tab 3 it just says Android device not compatible with Android USB host API.
Im not tech savvy so dont know what this means. It also says a firmware update may fix the issue but I appear to be fully updated.
any ideas?
Hello everyone, hope someone can help me, I bought a refurbished galaxy tab 3 10.1 from ebay.
The tab runs smooth in general the trouble I find is that does not recognice my usb otg cables or keyboard, I have a galaxy s3 that does support usb otg and have tried 3 different ubs otg cables and a keyboard and none is recogniced by the tab but yes on the GSIII.
Today while trying to view a video from the chrome browser got a message html5: video file not found. so I tried the stock browser and while I don't get any message it doesn't plays the video.
¿can someone confirm if the usb otg is supported? and lecture me about the html5 issue.
or did I get a faulty unit.
Thanks and sorry for my english is not my native language.
Hi,
anyone having some experience with the TabS2 en MHL HDMI?
Thanks
No but I'd be interested to hear if anyone has?
Thanks
Yes.
bought a small cable (6€) ....
tried one time ... works fine...
take care : in my case HDMI must be powered using a usb cable.
nothing to modify in settings..
I use MHL all the time. It does not fill the screen entirely as my phone MHL image does, but maybe that's the aspect ratio of the tab. My TV allows changing of the aspect ratio to adjust fit properly. Unfortunately my 3D projector does not allow tuning from an HDMI source. I have both 2.0 and 3.0 Samsung MHL adapters and they work fine with this tab.

No MHL with new Galaxy Tab S2?
I have just got Galaxy Tab S2 9.7" LTE T819 which is sligtly refreshed version of T815 with Android 6.
MHL does not work. There is no HTML option in the menu.
Samsung pages are inconsistent. Some claim that MHL is suporrted, some other - it is not.
Is it the question of hardware "improvement" from T815 to T819?
Or is it due to "upgrade" of Android 5 to 6?
Grzegorz
Same here.
Got the 819 model and mhl is not working. Same cable works with older Samsung tab (tab 3 8.0 inches), which should have same mhl version.
Either was removed with marshmallow update or it is removed due to hw revision.
Samsung website says it is supported, but clearly ain't true for my model.
I've got official Tab S2 dock and the original Samsung MHL 3.0 dongle - all work through HDMI (on the original 2015 version). However, you have to put up with the 4:3 screen ratios even on the 16:9 monitors..
Exactly how?

I have all of this and have been trying since I got my tablet, nothing shows up on the screen. Do you have to do something to the tablet or something to make it show up?

Sorry for not answering you (I only rarely visit XDA) - I havent added any apps to make it work. Its very much plug and play. Which version do you have? The 2015 Exynos or the 2016 Snapdragon? I've got the 2015 version.
I have also found it particular with certain screens and monitors too. Some do not report back to the device properly for resolution choice, whilst others will bawk at the tablet being on a non-standard 16:9 resolution. But it does work with my TV at home and my 4K monitor at work. I'd suggest you also try it with other monitors and TV's directly via HDMI.
There's a root app called SecondScreen which works well for aspect issues.
i have 2015 samsung galaxy tab s2 9.7 inch and mhl cable, micro, charger, hdmi output to hdtv, but i get a no signal on my hd tv, any clues as to why i thismodel compatible yes or not. if yes can you tell me the adapter to use.

you need samsung adapter if you use generic mhl.
samsung pin is different than generic mhl.
FYI:
Samsung online support chat ref#: 8214559545
My Question:
“Does the Samsung Multimedia Dock for Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0/9.7 support HDMI screen mirroring using the tablet 819 model ? Some members of the XDAdevelopers forum cast doubt on whether it works.”
Your Samsung Multimedia Dock webpage say’s it supports Galaxy Tab S2's but does not explicitly confirm model variations, and it also say's "4K resolution is only supported by MHL 3.0 support devices (MHL 2.0 or 1.0 devices support FHD)"
Sumsung Support Answer:
“Upon checking on the technical specification of the device, MHL is not supported by your T819 tablet.”
and
“You can only use screen mirroring using Wi-Fi. I apologize but it will not work. Both devices needs to have MHL capability, however, your Tab S2 T819 doesn't have this feature.”
.... Para Dox
Sumsung Support Answer:
"Upon checking on the technical specification of the device, MHL is not supported by your T819 tablet."
Surely this would only require a simple software update to re-enable MHL on the latest version S2 tabs ?

Contact Samsung Support and try to extract more detail from them. Ask them what is the root cause, and is there any possibility of a future fix or work-around.
I didn't say this in my above post, however I was on Samsung Chat Support for about half an hour just flushing out the above couple of lines I posted.
1st level support are junior staff, and their job is to shield senior staff from the customer.
I was initially given superficial answers and had to keep probing with cross-checking questions, challenging their logic, and requesting they escalate to senior technicians to finally flush out the above answer in my post.
I also requested that they document this technical information in their manual and on their website, but I am not holding my breath.
...... Para Dox
Does anyone know of the otterbox defender case or any case will fit the mhl adapter with the case on..?
