quick question:
Will micro HDMI to HDMI cable work or is MHL adapter/micro usb to HDMI required?
It's my understanding that our old microhdmi to hdmi cables we used for our evo 4g will not work with the evo 3d. Instead, we will need an MHL adapter or microusb to HDMI cable.
Just want to verify my understanding. I am sure somebody else is wondering this too.
MHL is required. my question is where do we get it at? only one i see is the one that comes with the samsung phone. i called sprint and they said there is one in the box but i really doubt this person at sprint knew what i was talking about.

I created an account just to tell you: Thank you for posting this. I don't know how to thank you using the forum yet, so I'll just say it.
I went to a bunch of stores yesterday asking about the adapter, and none of them even knew what MHL was.
Many thanks!
Edit: I guess I needed to post once to activate the "thanks" button.

Thanks for posting the link. Just ordered one. Can't pass up for $16.
Waiting for this to hit ebay.. got some discounts/certificates id like to use.
Thanks for the replies!
Now, purely for education, will there ever be a "microusb to hdmi" cable?

I don't think so.
I believe the reason for the MHL adapter is because the HDMI doesn't provide a charge for the phone.
I could've sworn there was an early hands on video on YouTube where the sprint/HTC Rep said it can charge via HDMI... let me do some digging.

I remember the same thing. The cable is supposed to have some sort of port for connecting a cable to charge the device from what I understand.

at ~0:31 she mentions the MHL connector has a port to, I assume, plug in a DC source in order to simultaneous output HDMI and charge.
i bought universal mhl adaptor from t mobile that they sold for the sensation .. but when i plug into my phone and then try and toggle my tv to the hdmi source that the phone is plugged into it doesnt pick up a signal from that port.... is there something that has to be enabled on the phone?
I fot mine from tmobile website. Cheapest I found and works like a charm. Plus every store I called asked "what's an mhl cable?"
Amazes me people who work in electronics don't know jack

to his HTC Touch Pro 2
and this Iphone cable in the 3,5mm of the 4in1
He then started an application on his phone and he had video output.
Are these the right cables and where can I find this cab?
http://pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=news&id=7112
Thanks! Very fast response! So will this work with the touch pro 2 too or should I get the normal tv out cable?
yeh。I can help you 。and
http://www.htc.com/tw/ or http://www.htc.com/tw/product/accessory/cable_ac-t110.html
there are two webs that i can give you
I dont think the iPhone cable will work because HTC extUSB has double sided terminal for differ function. And the 3.5mm jack maybe is for audio-in for external sound system.
(Here is unboxed, as free gift + canon selphy CP760 + 4gb class6 mSD when i bought this device -kind of promotion )

No need to brake off the 4th pin
So after about an hour of searching, I came to the conclusion that the only way possible at the moment, unless I missed something, was to buy a video out cable or the whole removing the 4th pin from the mini-usb scenario which I was not ready to do. So after reading many... many post I figured , if the only thing stopping me from using a 3.5mm video out cable is fact that the 4th pin is making contact than why can't I just put something in there to stop it from making contact instead of removing it. Long story short I stuck a piece of duck tape on top of the 4th pin and vuale it worked!!!!! I included some pictures .

I cut the blue wire and it worked on my TP2 also. This trick should be stickied in the Rhodium section/.
I bought the OEM tv out cable from ebay for around $16, shipping included.
non-OEM ones are even cheaper, but I did not want to plug in a non-oem one and risk shorting the pins. Normally I don't care about these kind of stuff and buy the aftermarket one but somehow this time I didn't have the courage
Hi,
I need to find a cable for my TP2, which have a Male miniUSB connector in both ends.
Has anyone heard about such a cable?

What is this cable for? You want to connect Rhodium to other device? Just phisical connection will not be enough because one of the devices must be able to be host device on USB bus.

Hi,
no I don't want to use the cable to connect it to another devce. I need it to charge the phone. The case is that I in my car have a femaile miniUSB, so if I have a miniUSB male to male, I can use this cable to connect to the Rhodium and to the powersocket of the car - the female miniUSB.
any luck with this? I'm looking for the same cable.

Sadly no, so I'm thinking I'll try making my own cable.
hi, i have had that cable twice before. Both came from my texas insrument ti84 calculator. Perhaps you can order one from them, or maybe it is time to buy a calculator!
their website says it's a mini A to mini B. So, the TI84 usb connectivity standard is not it.

Mini A and Mini B both fit in the same sockets. I don't know why they have 2 different versions or why the cable that comes with the calculators has A and B sides.

I have just ordered one at the total price of $ 1.45 incl. shipping to Denmark, Europe. That's nice.
I'll give a review when receiving it.
I think there's already a thread with a shopping link to the cable, just the "search this forum" option glitches out on my Rezound.
Anyway, I'm fed up with standard micro USB cables coming loose while charging this thing(especially while driving & using the phone via AUX on head unit to play music).
Can someone post a shopping link to the original cable that comes with the Rezound
Please do not post a regular micro USB link as I've already gone through multiple ones that were 'snug' at first but eventually loosened up.
Thanks!

Oh but contraire, MHL stands for mobile high-definition link and its for hdmi out

MHL is a standard for transmitting, not hardware. It works over many different kinds of cables, including Micro USB.
So I repeat, there is no such thing as an MHL cable. There are MHL adapters, but they use . . . MicroUSB or EXTMicro USB.

Just trying to clear the air about that. A lot of people really seem to prefer the solidity of the EXTMicro connector and it's going to be a lot easier for people to shop for cables with them if they know the correct name.

That does not come with an EXTMicro connector. So while the charger is the same, the MicroUSB is not which is what this thread is about.

Just wondering if any of you have found one that does work for you?

Just plugged it in including USB power supply, no set-up necessary.
There will be a message on the phone's screen saying HDMI is connected.

I rooted mine and then put the stock kernel back. But I did freeze alot of services, so maybe one of those is needed for MHL support. I got what I thought was the right MHL adaptor, now i'm starting to thing maybe its on the phone's end.

My phone is rooted with CWM installed. Check the cables you have if they are really 11 pin:
Both of the ones I have look like the old one, even though both of the amazon/ebay listings say that they work with the newer S4 and Note 2.

They are probably wrong since they won't be able to test it without buying the phones. Maybe you can send them back and get a refund.

It let you connect to HDMI without external power, also if you use external power you can use HDMI and USB hard drive at the same time, it is just really really amazing, Sammy has really improved their MHL and OTG support.
Note: I am using this device on my Note 3 N9005 I am not sure about other devices

Mhl 2.0?
Iv been dealing with these for about a year now. From my s3 to my note 3. With the s3 it's 2.0 so you have to provide external power but these things are the tits when it comes to the note 3 with 3.0 you can run USB and HDMI without power. I play games and use it for work with all wireless accessories it's awesome. Supports 1080p at 60hrtz. We sell them in our repair shop and on Ebay. Not often though as "normal" people don't see the capabilities of this lol.
Go buy one their awesome.

It's not immediately apparent, but the device pictured (and others like it, one of which I have) do have a port for charging: the micro usb. When I got mine it took me a minute to realize that, then it hit me that power would really be the only use for that port. So I plug one of my Sammy charging cables into it during use.
