There is lots in ebay, all called as OEM, but are they really originals?

check the feedback mate...there are no doubs that this is genuine product.. but if its me i would choose directly samsung service and pay a bit more...instead of purchasing it from ebay.
The question is simples, where can I buy the correct TV-OUT cable for SGS2?!
Thanks
What kind of a tv cable do you need hdmi?

Search on here for MHL cable
Still can't find it CHEAP anywhere! Found a 3£ version but had no sound... Only if the sound goes through the microusb too!
Also, does the SGS1 cable works on SGS2 ?
Cheers
This is the official MHL cable

Thanks. How about audio?
Audio does go through the cable. Was there a microUSB port in the adapter for charging as well? Because I read that unless it is put on charge, it doesnt work properly. The 2 adapters in the link have microUSB slots so yours might have been missing one or maybe just some other fault.
Once the adapter is connected, it works just like any other HDMI port.
you people need to do your research, there are plenty posts on here about this, plus there is a demo on youtube, read, watch and listen, the information is out there...!

Hey stoolzo,
- Where can i buy it cheaper than original\brand price
- How is the Audio transmitted
These are doubts that i couldn't find the answer too. Sorry for cutting trees and polluting Earth =P
Thanks all for the constructive answers. I'm buying my cable now
It's alright to ask questions I feel. Even if there's already another thread open for it. Its not like anything is getting wasted

Quite correct, however what you will find is that people will get more and more reluctant to cover the same issues over and over again until people simply wont bother to answer.
Always best to read before asking, there is no excuse not to do so, simply advising there is nothing wrong with asking questions doesn't really cut it. I know the search is pretty bad but I had some of the same questions myself but found all the answers I needed by reading and watching youtube.
One search for "MHL" revealed the following below, and these are not posts mind you, these are individual threads.

Yes in that case they might not get an answer and will have to searcha nd find out themselves. But what Ive found mostly is that some sites have very irritating search engines that hardly help you out. Not saying thats the case here.

I think you've got yourself a little confused there. If you search and cannot find something then you ask, the problem only arises when people cant be bother to search and questions get asked over and over again.

I doubt it would work. Having video output is not just about external cable, but needs special electronics inside the phone. Anyway - let us know.

thanks man really wanted to know before buying, because here in Brazil the MHL is the equivalent of U $ 80.00 while in Europe and elsewhere are $ 10.00 to $ 40.00 in Brazil samsung told me that any mid-end device with micro-USB works ...
if someone could test ...
Not sure this will help but Try looking here
I've got an SGS2 and SGW, with official MHL adaptor. Will test and report back.

You'll probably have to keep waiting until the weekend. Flat out with work, 3 year old and pregnant wife. You know the story...
Don't worry - I wont forget. Intrigued myself.
i've tested that MHL cable won't work on our PHONE ..does anyone know weather it can be modified to be use with MHL or it just a Hardware Problem.
i know samsung sells the hdmi MHL out 11 pin. Any way to get this cheaper from a third party?

EDIT: Apparently this one will NOT work for the s3 since it requires an 11 pin adapter.
This seems to be the most affordable and quality product that I could find, and has really good reviews on Amazon as well. At $11.99, you really can't go wrong here.

That adapter is not for the S3 as it is still has a 5 pin connection. The S3 requires an 11 pin adapter.

Is this confirmed for the sgs3? I thought it used a new, unique mhl adapter. Samsung has made an adapter for old adapters but that's like another $15 and then you need two dongle things

Thanks for letting me know -- I have this sitting in my shopping cart right now! :good: For some reason this pops-up when you search accessories for the S3 though.
Found this for $8.95 at Android Central Store.

I refuse to buy an adapter FOR an adapter on principle.
I'll just keep waiting for the $10 knockoff MHL adapter that's s3-compatible to pop up on Ebay

I think someone said something about monoprice working on one.
I have a hard bricked Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 (SPH-L710). My fault, fortunately it was the spare phone after a recent upgrade.
So I could send it to Texas or find a local person about an hour away with a Riff box and try that.
BUT I am thinking about getting a Riff Box myself and documenting the experience.
That way if I hard brick... again I can fix without sending to someone else to do JTAG and I can post it also.
Here comes the question. From what I read, I will either have to solder or jury rig or buy a 'JIG' to connect the cable
to a chip on the motherboard. Does anyone know for sure which 'Jig" would go to the 'SPRINT' version of the S3?
I also read posts saying the 'Polish' jigs are better...
But again which jig will work with the sprint U.S.A. version of S3?
(sorry can not post URL examples do to new to forums)
If no one on the forums has done this for the sprint S3 then this may be something that should be done and posted for others to read.
Jtag no longer necessary.
All you need is an SD card. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43724690 This is proven to work, pioneered here for Sprint S3 and has worked on T-Mobile and Verizon as well.

tried the SD did not work with this brick.
I appreciate the cross reference, I did search forums before posting and I already tried the SD card, used a level 10 16gig, maybe I should have tried a 32gig card... but I did try that. I do know unix and I prefer openbsd for gateways, and freebsd for servers over linux.
BTW I did get a reply from the company FONEFUNSHOP LTD in UK, concerning the "Samsung i747 / i747M / T999 / T999v (aka. Galaxy S3) JTAG Jig (+ 1 X 12 Pin Molex Port) " and the response was:
--not sure as we dont see that model over here in the UK, i doubt it, so i will say no.
So -bump- if no one knows, I could try posting with the riff box support forum as a presales question... They do list the SPH-L710 as a supported phone... but what jig?

I had to have a JTAG done on the phone I'm using now. The SD card method didn't work I tried a variety of SD cards and none worked

Fingers crossed... Just ordered a Riff Box from ipmart... l paid for UPS shipping with insurance from ipmart and used paypal to give me some protection but it was less than $150, which is a good price if I get it. I did use a vendor listed on the riffbox.org site so I should be supported according to their site.
I never did get a good answer on what jig. To try something I ordered the multi-com jig off an ebay seller in California for a JTAG Samsung I747/I747M/T999/T999V (Galaxy S3) but I have no assurance that will work on a SPH-L710 because the seller did not know either.

I ordered the RIFF box on a Friday and got it the following Thursday. Faster than I was ready to use... So IPmart is okay!
I ebay ordered the jig for the T999 mentioned afore and bad news... while it looks like the correct connector on the jig... the way the jig is built it will not fit the phone it appears. The cable pins are in the way, if the cable pins had been on the other side maybe.
As to your question. The software with the riff box has a "clues" section as part of the resurrection that gets downloaded... and it explains exactly where to solder along with a photograph of motherboard and pin numbers. The clues section is must read and may also include tricks. Since you need the riffbox and the software to do this I will not repeat the information here in respect to the manufacturer.
I may give up on trying to find jig and just solder.

This may be the way to go to avoid soldering, but I don't really want to put out another $70 and wait another couple weeks for another thing from China. Google "JPIN JTAG Molex Flex cable for Samsung LG without soldering support Riff Box"
after looking at my HUGE tip on my soldering iron... I am going to order it.
I just put the jig I could not use up on ebay. Someone will benefit.

Already tried that, so did the senior member in post #4.
The phone is not communicating... does not power up but appears to charge battery. the 16GB SD card method did not work. real brick so far.
