Video output? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Is there a way for me to use my Netflix app and display it on my TV using the USB cable?

You need a USB-MHL adapter, very easy to find, and relatively cheap.

Hmmm haven't heard of those. Thanks for the info!

Oh I see now, just googled it. I can't just cut an hdmi cable and write to a USB cable? I have extra of each.

Nope, the adapter needs power to work. It goes like this...
Plug micro-usb male into phone
Plug micro-usb female into power source (AC or USB)
Plug hdmi male into TV
PROFIT.

An mhl adapter has a short microusb cable that connects to your phone. It has an HDMI port that will take an HDMI cable to your TV. It also has a microusb port on the side that takes your power cable (came with phone) to the wall outlet for power. So recap:
You need...
Phone
Mhl adapter
TV
HDMI cable
Microusb cable (came with phone for charge)

Can anyone tell me why I have it set up audio and screen show up. Chrome Beta and the youtube app both show up just fine until I click play on a video. Audio plays thru the youtube app and shows video on phone screen but only audio on the t.v and chrome just loads so idk. Also the camera app doesnt transfer to the t.v but I expect that. Im running sky rocket leak

IF you are not running a kernel for the t989 your HDMI out will not work correctly ..
So NO it will not work on a skyrocket leak ...

I'm after a longish USB charger cable but with a thin profile micro USB connector similar to s2 as i have a case on my s3 and the fat moulded type struggle fitting!
Any suggestions most welcome...

I got one of these off amazon for cheap, pretty sure its a knockoff but the quality is OK and its the same size as the stock cable that comes with the phone.

I got the adapter because it was cheap and wanted to try and plug a usb stick in for movies or whatever. Any idea on how to make the darn thing work?

If it's an extension you're talking about the male end of the micro USB cable then just plug the other end into what ever you're trying to transfer to. Or are you asking about a USB flash drive?

It does not detect anything I plug into it. I'm on Blue Kuban. Could my rom have anything to do with it?

What you're waiting for is usb host mode. Dont think you'll have much luck yet. Saw a few posts about it. Here's one..

[Q] ICS Rom that works with MHL Adapter

I have a MHL Adapter and i am on light weight 3.0 but tv mirroring does not work
can someone let me know what rom supports this feature?:victory:
Im on lightweight 3.0 and tv mirroring is working find..maybe its the cable or make sure the charging cable is plugged into the adapter...

Ive always wondered about mhl, am I mistaken in thinking both the phone and TV need to support it? So if I plug into a non mhl TV nothing will happen correct?

Does that cable help with quicker charging? and does it lead to over heating?

Charges just like the original. Same speed i'd say. Only down side is the head is on the bigger size, i had to trim a little to fit most cases i have. If u have case with large port then u shouldn't have any issues.
