TV Out Cable (Sound But No piccy) - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Accessories

Hi,
I have just plugged in my tv out cable from Rhodium to my telly but i can not get a picture, the sound comes through the telly speakers but there is no picture, my telly only has a scart socket but i have a scart adaptor with the Red, White and yellow plug holes, so i connect all 3 cables to the scart adaptor and plug the scart plug into the back of the telly and then i get sound but NO PICCY any ideas please?

try switching the red and yellow plugs. I had to do this with one of my cables. My other cable that I use in my car, works as labeled. You can try each plug (R,W,Y) one at a time into the yellow input on your tv. One of them will show video, the other 2 are audio.

I have tried running a film via Album using the video out cable that came with my Touch Pro, worked fine.

Does the Video Out Cable work connected to Charging Headset Adapter?

Hello,
I want to purchase accessories for my soon coming Touch Pro 2.
Wanted: A solution to use video out, charge the phone AND use 3.5mm handset at the same time.
The HTC OEM Charging Headset Adapter (SC5310) has 3.5mm, 2.5mm and Mini-USB Out.
Will the Video Out cable work from the mini-usb port on the charging adapter? Or can the charging adapter with headset and charger connected work through the mini-usb of the video cable that is directly connected to the phone?
Are there any other suggestions?
Thank you in advance!
You can try No2chem's nueTVOut app. Haven't gotten to work for me, but it may for you...

I just tried this for you and it works fine - Video out cable plugged directly into phone, headset and charger plugged into video out cable. Everything works
Got my video out cable from meritline, in case it matters.

[Q] How do i use MHL?

Hi guys, i bought the MHL adapter from T-Mobile's website for the Sensation 4G (i have an Evo 3D). I set everything up, plugging the MHL adapter into my phone, standard HDMI into the adapter and TV, and the usb cable into the adapter...
After plugging everything in nothing happens. I even tried playing a video and nothing occurred. How do i activate the video out? Do i just have a bad MHL adapter?
A few questions. Does the battery icon on the phone show it is charging? This means that power is going to the adapter and to the phone. If not, try changing power adapters. If the charging icon is there, then try changing HDMI cables. If this doesn't work, you might have a bad MHL to HDMI adapter.
with your tv off, plug your mhl adapter into your phone, plug your power cable into the adapter, turn your tv on and bam! (note that the hdmi doesnt display the lockscreen)

My lockscreen shows and boot animation , Also to OP ...the hdmi mirroring is not as stable as HDMWIN is for the OG Evo imo, i had to play with it a bit to first get a picture on my Sammy (unplug/replug/reboot etc.)...then i got pic without sound (OG worked w/audio), ended up running hdmi through my Yamaha amp and that worked. Still not as stable as my 4g evo....LAME
btw I've read usb can't be plugged into pc for powering, must be plugged into wall adapter

my macbook pro powers it fine. weird.
I was using it with my stand that had a video on/off button to turn the display on an off. Everything was mirrored fine but I had no audio and hulu was intentionally shutting off the hdmi before any video played. Are they blocking media streaming apps from displaying through the mhl adapter? Oh an i powered mine by pluging it into my ps3.

Funny that you ask this. I just got an MHL adapter off of Amazon that was just the adapter itself (micro USB one end, female HDMI on the other).
I connected the HDMI cable to my TV and MHL adapter, then I connected my MHL adapter to my phone. Last but not least, I connected my power adapter directly to the MHL adapter and my phone started charging.
The input should be immediate from your phone but if it doesn't, check the following:
1. Make sure your TV is on and the input is selected for the proper HDMI port. If nothing is detected, the TV should report that it's receiving no signal.
2. Make sure the power cable is plugged into your MHL adapter. From my experience, it will not push out the HDMI signal without external power.
3. From my experience, you have to connect your phone to the MHL adapter LAST. NOt sure why but if everything else checks out fine and your phone still isn't pushing out a signal, reconnect the phone to the MHL adapter. You should get an HDMI icon on your top bar.
I have the EVO3D stock.
Everything works fine for me (pictures, music, video) except Netflix. For some reason Netflix looks extremely pixellated. Not quite sure why when everything else looks fine.

[Q] HDMI OUT not working?

So, i bought a tmobile mhl adapter plug, and i attempted to plug the microusb, and hdmi cord into the adapter. when i do, my phone tells me HDMI connected- play a video or a slideshow to display, blah blah. anyway, nothing shows up on my tv, it states weak or no signal.
I'm on the latest synergy sense rom.
When i play a video with like youtube, it resizes it to 4:3 instead of 16:9 on the evo 3d, and the sound stops playing but it doesn't display on the tv :/
anyone have any fixes? does synergy not support hdmi out?
Just make sure you have the charger plugged in to the adapter. Do a reboot in your phone and try again.
Had the same prob with leedroid gsm.
See how you get on.
did you plug power cable into the HML adaptor as well?
yep
Yep, everything is plugged in properly, it tells me on my 3d that HDMI is connected. my sound turns off, but nothing displays on my plasma :/ the hdmi cord works since i use it with my apple tv 2, and obviously the adapter works since the evo 3d detects when an hdmi cord and power cable are connected. just wondering if it's the rom. i'm going to try and reinstall the rom to see if it fixes.
did you select the correct hdmi port on your tv?
Yes, I selected the right hdmi port, I even moved the hdmi cable to other ports and checked those as well.

help troubleshooting mhl adapter please?

Just tried watching a movie on my phone on the girlfriend's tv and got nothing... it's really annoying me now too.
-Plugged hdmi into each of the 4 ports on the tv in case was a bad port
-Tried 2 different phone chargers into a power strip AND tried extension cord from wall (nothing was open directly in the wall)
**Got nothing from those steps**
-Plugged adapter in to pc monitor with hdmi input and charger directly to wall, got picture
-Plugged hdmi into dvd player to test the tv, got picture
My first thought is the charger isn't getting a good connection to the powerstrip because the plug in front of it kinda prevents it from going in all the way - HOWEVER the phone does receive power and charged through it.
But that's why I tried an extension cord right off the wall, so not sure what it could be.
Does the TV have to be newer and support an mhl adapter? I thought you had MHL which required the TV to support AND then there was the adapter that worked with all hdmi (thus it being an adapter).

I've tried the several listed proper sequences, I've tried USB debugging on and off, and I've tried rebooting my phone repeated times. I have the Menotek adapter others on here have said they've had luck with... but no matter what I do, neither the phone, nor the several TVs I've tried it with have recognized each other. I feel like there must be some setting or program I'm missing. Please help.
I get sound, no video

My phone is the att stock version. I have the menotenk with rcp and it works every time I use it on a HDTV but if i use it on a dvi device I have to use headphones or any audio cable in the headphone port or at least use a bluetooth audio other wise I get video that plays about a frame every 3 seconds and no audio. If I am not watching a video it will work fine... but that don't seem to be your problem.
Debugging should be off. This is my procedure:
*Make sure you hdmi cable is already connected to the tv. For things like RCP most tv will only work on hdmi port 1, so just to be sure use port 1 on your tv and make dobule sure you are using the right cable for the port.
* Restart your phone, do not load any app that does not load automaticaly.
Make sure tv is on and set for whichever hdmi port that you intend to use.
Hook hdmi cable to your adapter.
Connect your charger to the adapter. (Most tv's will have some sort of reaction to this. My small tv goes from no signal to no video when I do this, my 52" goes from a blue screen saying no signal to a black screen, this might not happen on every tv but if it does in your then you can guess that connection is good.)
Connect the adapter to your phone. (When this happens you should see the charging icon in your phone, also, you will see a message that says something like "hdmi connected", I can't remeber off my head)
In a few seconds you should see your tv flicker and they you should see video and have audio.
Before I got this menotek I bought another brand and it was touch and go with that one, I had to try the above procedure a couple of times and sometimes it would work, most times it would not....
If you are stock and it don't work I will have to say that you have a defective unit.
Sounds like a hassle to me.
I'm on stock firmware using the OEM Samsung MHL adapter. I simply pull the HDMI out of my PS3, and plug it in to the MHL adapter. Then I plug in the power supply. Then I plug the MHL adapter in my phone. Works flawlessly every time...tested on multiple video apps and games.

Hassle? How so? Sounds like the same thing I do.... I'm trying to help the op, telling him how to connect it probably will not do, If he is reading the instruction on the adapter he is alreading doing that same process, I'm trying to give him a better picture than the instructions on the adapter documentation.
