Gs2 MHL cable??? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi ive just had a look on ebay and the MHL cables are going for 30-40 quid? Is there not somewhere else that does them cheaper?
I think its a bit retarded anyways not havin one in the box but thats another story, but having to pay an extra 40 quid to use a function on ur phone.
Sorry for my rant im just surprised they so expensive.

because this is not just wires in cable.
It has chip inside for signal conversion.

Yes it is a right rip off. I just ordered this one, best deal i could find on the official one

HDMI to Micro (Dailysteals.com) (Only Today 9/10)

Dunno if it'll work with our phones but what the heck it's 5.00 and you get a pack of 3.
If it does work- awesome, I just got 3 cables for 5 bucks and I can watch stuff on my TV
If it doesn't...I lost 5 bucks, big whoop.

Nice deal but yeah you still need an MHL adapter to plug it into our phones.
Yup, got to have a mhl adaptor for tv-out. You use a regular hdmi cable with it

This is a good deal though. I think the one I bought for my EVO 4G was around $4.50 on monoprice. I bought the 3 pack of mini HDMI for my Asus Transformer because this deal is either or. Too bad they didn't let you mix and match!

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10833&cs_id=1083314&p_id=8675&seq=1&format=2
I thought I saw a thread in the accessories section where someone bought the cable from monoprice and it didnt work. Does this one work for you?
Doh
I just found it though about buying it. With what your saying I may just flip the bill for the one from Samsung.
just found the thread about the one that didn't work. They have a couple ones listed. The one I linked lists the S2 as compatible.
bah also this is in the wrong section Please move me
TY

Where to buy usb flex cable for SGS?

My USB port is hosed and Ive read that you can buy a flex cable and just replace the entire logic board/adapter but I'm unable to find a place that sells them specifically for the ATT SGH-I777. Every store online only sells replacement parts for the i9100. Does anyone know id either the usb port or the flex cable itself from the i9100 is compatible with the ATT SGS2?
Thanks

Hi,
Do you have any idea where weather it is available in India?
Thread was started a year ago with no info.. lets let this one die...

Best and safest place to buy a USB Jig?

As the title says. I have searched but of the 31 thread, none directly say where to purchase one.
So if someone knows of a trusted source, it would be appreciated, thank you. :thumbup:

I honestly just picked a cheap, most likely mass produced one off of ebay and it works out fine. It was like a dollar or two, total.
I bought from ebay uk last year. 1.5 £. Works fine

Just use ebay! They are mass produced, it's only a resistor soldered across two of the pins. They're very easy to make.Hence why you can get them cheap.
As the others said, got mine from eBay too. Really cheap and it works.

Oh come on, it's what ? 1 pound, 2 pounds on eBay ? go wild, live dangerously, order from two sellers at once At that price, biggest risk is getting the jigs shipped in an envelope coloured in a colour you don't like.

Or if you're really bored with spare time on your hands then just solder a 300kΩ resistor over pins 4 & 5 of a chopped up mini USB adaptor. Also that way if you make it yourself you know it's gonna be good quality.

With ICS, and thanks to Chainfire, you no longer need to buy a jig
Use the software equivalent Triangleaway instead Will be good to buy it from the market also to support the dev's amazing efforts.

He said it could brick your device
If not careful, that's why I'm staying away for now.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Flashing the old bootloader & using the jig also has a (normally very small) risk of bricking your device as well. So I guess it's a case of which pill you want to take
I did it. Worked flawlessly and took less than a second. Cheers guys, and ChainFire of course!
It's not letting me post in his thread or thank him :/

The charging adapter

People say do not lose it, even Samsung says the same thing.
As long as it is attached to the charging cable I am not sure how I can lose it.
I just worry about it breaking attaching and removing it.
Replacement Adapters?

Yeah I'm not sure how people can lose it. It's attached really tight to the cable itself. Now that I have said this, I'm pretty sure this thing is going to go missing in the next few days.
I already lost it and that ebay link doesn´t work, it´s not available already. Where can I find a cheap one?

$40 WOW i bought 2 for my original Gear for $25 total for both. i will wait until they have some competition on pricing
Those are so expensive, becouse they are first one in the market. As soon as Samsung release all colors I think the price should drop to 15-20$ and i hope that some 3rd party bands show up in ebay.
