No MHL? - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General

I received mine yesterday, have been testing it all day, everything looks fine, no significant lag. One thing I cannot test out is the MHL function. I tried mt MHL adapter, it does not work at all. Can anyone help me test if this feature exists or I got a lemon?

Yes, it does.
This is the adapter I am using that I had bought for my Note 2 (I'm sooo happy Samsung decided to go with Micro-USB on this device).

Watch out community, I purchased this adapter from amazon

it does not work!
Anyone tried Nyrius ARIES Prime/pro Digital Wireless HDMI Transmitter & Receiver System on note 10.1 yet? I think this will be the perfect solution for wireless display.

It might be the older 5 pin version when the newer Samsungs have moved onto 11 pin adapters.
You could either upgrade or get an 5 pin to 11 pin adapter.

On a somewhat related note: Does this tablet have miracast support?

It should...it has a mirror screen function that works with Samsung all share cast hub(kind of miracast?)

The Samsung all share cast works as long as unrooted.

I tried the Samsung HDMI adapter I bought last year for my Note 2. It works for the Note 2 but not Note 3. The HML adapter will show like a dark snow effect and without it on it is a blank TV. I'm not sure if it has something to do with the TV resolution :/

same here, my MHL adapter for Note 2 doesn't work with this tablet.

You need the new version that they released with the s4

I just purchased the black on mentioned in the 2 post hope that works ok.

MHL works
l picked up one from Monoprice that came with the 5 to 11 pin converter. Worked fine with the tablet and my S3 watching streamed content with the Hulu plus subscription included with the tablet.

I'm sorry but I am not following this thread very well. If I want to connect my 10.1 2014 to a HDMI TV what exactly do I need (as has been confirmed to work)?

I haven't tested it but It works with my S4, says its compatible with Note 3 and Note 8 so should work on this.

I haven't tested this on my new 10.1 2014 yet, BUT
It works great on my Galaxy S 4 so I'm confidant it will work. I normally don't order generic and always go with Samsung OEM, but since it's near impossible to find a genuine Samsung one for a reasonable price I ordered from mycablemartDOTCOM since I LOVE their HDMI cables/adapters.

My Note 2 adapter works just fine!
I purchased the note 2 adapter from Samsung and it works perfectly with my 2014 edition!

bought this but doesn't connect
Cable Matters Micro-USB to HDMI MHL Adapter in Black and Charging Cable in Black 1 Metre* from Amazon.
It connects straight to my htc one x but not my galaxy 10.1 note.
Is it just not compatible or do I need to change settings on my tab?

My mhl works fine that I got for my s4. It also works for my note 3 with the USB 3.0. Since the galaxy s3 you need a mhl 2.0 adapter. They have extra pins. The old mhl won't work on newer Samsung devices

The catch being it is a battery drain. Net negative even when charging. You can not even watch a complete movie if streaming Netflix on the S4.
Near worthless as a result on the S4.

[VIDEO] Galaxy Note II as a Computer/PC with MHL + Bluetooth Keyboard + Mouse!

Video Demonstration
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vI-Rbm-m5Kk
Ever since the OQO, I drempt of one day carrying a PC in my pocket. That day is finally here.
You can use the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 as a PC (computer), straight out of the box, no additional apps or hacks required. But you do need the right cables. A list of things you need is at the bottom.
I connect a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and then I connect a 11-pin MHL HDMI HDTV adapter. With the split-screen multitasking capabilities of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, it outshines all smartphones, and even most tablets in this regard, but it is not without many flaws.
There isn't a menu button on a standard mouse, when playing hardware accelerated video there doesn't seem to be an option to not only output video on the TV monitor, the Samsung keyboard is required to be enabled when using a Bluetooth keyboard, so it pops up whenever you click with the cursor.
Using a smartphone as a PC computer is an ability that is many years in the making. With all those minor to major annoyances, it is still near flawless at it's most essential task, which is web browsing, Flash works 95% too. The web browsing experience is leaps and bounds any web browser on any smartphone. You can definitely quote me on that. Spent about $80 on accessories to put this video together. Hope you appreciate it!

speaking of MHL, is the MHL built into this phone, or do we need to MHL adapter, similar to what HTC phones need? Or do we need just the MHL cable without the adapter?

You may need a converter, the thing still uses micro-usb but the pinout on the note2 and s3 is different from earlier phones. about $3-$5 of ebay.

I was wondering, have you been able to figure out solutions for the issues?
- virtual keyboard popping up every time you click with the mouse
- videos taking up the monitors full screen instead of split screen
I really appreciate the video and made a thread on it in the Nexus 4 forum here on xda :good:

Wow, thank you so much for doing that. I totally appreciate it!
As for keyboard popup issues, I think Samsung just needs to push out an update and remove the requirement to have samsung keyboard enabled when using the bluetooth keyboard.
As for videos taking up the full screen. I'll let you know if I find a solution.
I guess 'bluetooth null keyboard' on market could help you with the keybord popping up issue....

Get this from the play store, it is the best way to sort the Bluetooth Keyboard issue by far. Been trying out different apps, but that one works perfect.
Even pops up whenever the BT KB is connected to let you select it and then again on disconnect.

Yes. If your status is modified neither MHL nor Allshare Cast work. Triangle Away really helps here, though you do need a stock kernel.

Bluetooth can be buggy with so many revisions, that it would be impossible to say all keyboard mouse combos would work. Anecdotally, I haven't had a problem.

[Q] any way to get MHL?

i know the older phones had it but i tried it on my cell just now and nothing =\ any ideas on how to get it working? i did read that we have mhl 2.0
Let me google that for you....
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=galaxy+s4+mhl
Works for me. You need the 11pin adapter the old 5 pin will not work. If you had one from the SIII it will work.
Works fine. I used my 11pin adapter from my s3 and it's good. Amazon has 5 to 11pin Samsung adapters for about 9$ or if u don't have an mhl cable get the 11pin.

the cable being used in that video works on the S4 also
As I noted earlier my 11 pin adaptor works from my S3 works on the S4. I tried the adaptor without attaching the power cable and it worked on the S4 so we must have MHL2.0. With MHL2.0 the phone charges through the HDMI cable. Samsung has a new adaptor for MHL2.0 which is backward compatible for the S3 an Note II the one thing I don't know is if the 11 pin S3/Note II adaptor allows charging. I will have to see by using it with a longer Netflix show.
Ah cool!.... I tried my Infuse 4G MHL and it didn't work....
Cool the GS3 works

HDMI mirroring issue

Hello everyone, I got an 11 pin mhl to HDMI converter and trying to mirror it to tv but it does not display anything on TV.
I got it from amazon cable masters brand
Just to be sure I also bought similar dongle but another brand. Same did not work with my phone. Not sure if anybody has issue with this.It does say hdmi connected but nothing displays on tv.
If anyone knows any product that worked for them can you please post or help me why it's not working. Thanks!
That's why I prefer to stick with oem products. The mhl 2.0 Samsung part does mirror. At least from the YouTube video I have seen. You could try rebooting the phone too. Custom roms might interfere with this too. Idk

Thanks for reply. I just bought Samsung 11pin mhl adapter from bestbuy. Still no luck. I can display S3 on tv but not S4. I am guessing something might be wrong with usb port of my phone?

I use the OEM mhl/hdmi and the 11 pin for the s4- works fine.
Make sure that the cable connects complete if you keep the s4 case on, otherwise take the case off
My cases are different thicknesses from the s3 to s4 and I have to have the case off for it to work well on my S4.
Also, try plugging it in to the phone AFTER you connect the power to the mhl and hdmi to the TV.
You might also consider rebooting before your plug try plugging it in to see if it makes a difference. The reason I say that is when I use the all share hub to show video via wi-fi, MX player sometimes has the audio and video not synced right, after I reboot, it is synced fine. I know that isn't your exact issue here, I'm just saying sometimes the reboot helps if you're like me and leave your phone on constantly without rebooting.
One other thought that was mentioned earlier - if you're on a custom rom, make sure it supports it.
And of course, you can just pick up an OEM (since you have the 11pin adapter) for around $10-15 on amazon and return it easy if it doesn't work on your S4 and if you're not on a custom ROM, you can point your finger at the S4 port:

Students get free prime (2day shipping) for a few months, and caregivers too..(aka amazon mom but includes a whole slew of folks also)
You could probably do this: http://itvirtualevent.com/juniperwlan/index.php and let it run in the background, get your amazon gift card and you're cable is mostly paid for (I just saw the link today, so I can't vouch for it, but it's an easy $10 giftcard if it is what is says)...

note 3 mhl adaptor?

Anyone know if the note 3 will support usb to hdmi. With all the power of new phone kind of wanted to try on the big screen with some emulators for old school games. I wanted to buy one now so I can have it ready when i get my note . (unless anyone know about chromecast going 100% local content very soon)
With the new usb3.0 on note 3 we will not know unless Samsung confirms if the old ones will work until someone gets the phone And tries ... sad but true

Correct. Worked with my Samsung MHL 2.0 cable (at 60Hz) and the Smart Dock. Was relieved that it still works with the Smart Dock, even though 60Hz via MHL 2.0 is preferable.

HDMI MHL Out or AllShare Cast Streaming

Does the Galaxy S5 supports MHL for HDMI out? I have the Samsung mhl adapter and the 11 pin adapter for the crazy S4. I have tried both connections and have been unable to get any video. Adapter tested and working with my old S4. Did verizon block this feature too?
Can anyone confirm or refute this?
Has anyone tried using the AllShare Cast HDMI adapter with the Verizon S5?

The Samsung MHL adapter works with my s5. I purchased it thru monoprice. Its packaged for the s3.
It only seems to work with the USB power pluged in. essentially there are three plugs on this cable.. the HDMI end, and on the other the micro USB (to phone USB 2.0 I believe) and the standard USB (to power brick).
behaved weird at first... (switched from connected to disconnected a few times) but then stabilized and work just fine....
only problem is you need to keep the phone pretty close to the power outlet (extension cord or surge protector).
all in all not bad for 17 bucks.
Hope this helps you guys.
