I think hdmi is being replaced by wifi widi wireless links, I know it's not as fast as wired connections.
you should be able to use a chromecast hdmi device and connect it to your phones AP hotspot and then wireless send your video content to a hotel TV or the sort as like cabled hdmi, if thata what you are after (otherwise there are heaps of cheap usb powered portable mini wireless routers). I think there are apps like Web Video caster that can mirror your phones screen as well.

Highly doubtful. They haven't for a while.
They expect people to use Smart view these days. Mhl is most likely a thing of the past.
I'm lucky. I got my Samsung Galaxy Tab S still and still got the mhl lead with it.

Chromcast is best option possible and cheap. Install Local Cast and you can cast anything (kodi, popcorn, movie hd, YouTube) even own screen.

Should still be able to do miracast, which is the same thing as mhl but wireless.

No it won't.
Per Samsung support: "As of now there is no information regarding MHL compatible."
So that's a no.

No you don't need a WIFi network for chromecast. You can use your phone's hotspot and LocalCast to cast local content/apps.
This is a pain when trying to mirror your screen in your car lol. Will have to wire a Chromecast.

I hope so I use note 3 mhl and it requires different pins 11 instead of regular mhl cord. I'll try to see if it works. Might need an adapter since it's USB type c
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Free mobile app
What sucks is that type C is a HDMI out port. I had purchased the Type-C to HDMI connector from Google because at first they said the Nexus 6P would support it and then a week before launch they retracted their statement saying it would not come that way. I know the new Motorola Droid Z/Z Force support Type-C to HDMI so I hope the Note 7 does too.
From GSMArena...
The big adapter lets you connect any USB accessory with the ubiquitous port. You can even connect your old phone and have the Galaxy NOte7 transfer all information when you set it up.
The microUSB adapter is more for convenience - it allows you to use a regular microUSB cable or charger with the Note 7. It doesn't have USB host functionality unlike thebigger adapter.
Note that both adapters work at (relatively) slow USB 2.0 speeds (even the big one).
Unlike older USB standards, Type-C has an official TV-out standard - DisplayPort. So you are only a cable away from hooking the Note7 to an HDMI port on your TV or external monitor. But in the times of wireless casting, this option is starting to look well over its due date.
The wired connection can also be used in your car as long as the head unit supports MirrorLink. This standard mirrors the phone's screen (including touch input) onto the head unit. From the settings, you'll easily find an alternative launcher with big, easy to hit icons (the CarmodeStub we saw on the Galaxy Note5 too).

I have the SGS2 world version (GT-I9100). Does the micro-USB connector on the bottom align up with all the other variants of this phone (Tmo, AT&T, Sprint..ect)? Do all of those have the plug in the same place?
EDIT sorry the pic is so big. I didn't know that before I posted...
EDIT #2 Reading a quick review of the Menotek adapter on Amazon, one of the complaints was its limitation of 720p output. Is that true? Cant the SGS2 output in 1080p?
Personally i'd just buy the cheapest MHL adaptor you can find. It's just a cable so why pay a fortune for it.
It's not just a cable -- there are some electronics inside (that's why they need a charger input).
Have you ordered one yet? I'd be interested in knowing which is the best option and weather there's any reason to avoid the really cheap ones?
gonna grab myself a cheap one of these adaptors and get my emulator groove on, on the big screen.. though god knows how gba games are going to look at 32inches...probably not great.
No.is only cable.
I got official samsung and it is working fine
I have the first one, if your phone is not in airplane mode the screen on your tv often goes completely black. You have to reconnect the mhl cable to display the screen on your tv again. Annoying when watching videos but putting your phone into airplane mode fixes this completely.
Quality is great, downloading a movie and watching it looks incredible, full HD. However if you plan on watching youtube videos on your TV, I suggest you download the app TubeMate, it allows you to stream YT videos in a much higher quality than the standard app.

Quoting from Wikipedia here:
"The built-in RCP (Remote Control Protocol) function allows you to use the Remote Control of HDTV to operate the MHL mobile device through HDTV’s CEC function."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_High-definition_Link
MHL Adaptor
I bought one a few days ago from Amazon.co.uk, offical Samsung for £14.99 with free delivery, bargain in my opinion.
You have to connect the Samsung charger to power it (although i haven't tested it without the charger to see if it still works). The phone battery seems to drain really fast with the MHL outputting via HDMI, and gets a little warm also, both cores doing their bit no doubt.
Have to say i'm very happy with, and the CEC function (if your tv supports it) is the icing on the cake. With it, you can use your tv's remote (or any ALL in One as in my case [Logitech]) to control the phone navigation, you can play games using the remotes d-pad, and use it to click on items in the menu, or on the internet, rewind, pause and fast forward videos.
I too had the screen blacking out on me as one person mentioned earlier, espcially when playing games, I'll try and see what flight mode does for it, but my conclusions where a less than perfect HDMI cable, as when i tested it on my brothers tv it worked flawlessly without a single blackout (Using a HDMI cable supplied with his SKY+ box).
Might have to buy one of these but i'm still looking for a solution to sending audio NOT over the HDMI since I don't have a HDMI input on my monitors, only DVI. Either over analogue 3.5mm out or bluetooth would be fine!
I think the reason it drains the battery still is because it is using the data pins to send the video. For fast charge these pins would usually be shorted and you can't have both. (That's my understanding anyway!)
I have bought on ebay 1 cable mhl + 1 cable micro usb --> USB femal for only 15€

I don't want to shell out for the smart dock and I think this 4 port usb hub(non powered) would work. I would plug the USB OTG cable in to my note 2, then plug in the USB hub, followed by my Logitech K400 in to one of the four port, then a MHL adapter to one of the four USB port, run power to the MHL adapter, then an HDMI cable from MHL adapter to the TV when ever I want to surf the internet using my phone using wireless keyboard/mouse and displaying it on the tv. Will that work or will I need a powered USB hub?

How did I miss that! So if I get a female micro to male USB will it work? I mean will the HDMI signal still pass thru the hub out to the MHL adapter. Let me go watch the note 2 connectivity where that guy hooks half a million thing thru his powered usb hub.

no, the mhl adapter for our phones is the reason we have 11 pins in the micro usb port. the mhl adapter uses the 6 extra pins and thus the phone doesn't transmit hdmi signal through the 5 normal pins... also the mhl adapter only works if your phone is being charged through the extra usb port on the adapter itself.
I know you next question will be well then can I connect the usb otg adapter to the port on the mhl adapter. well for that you would pretty much have to build yourself some converters. you would need to supply power to the phone while at the same time supply power to the usb items you are trying to use. this presents a peculiar problem usb otg relies on shorting the grounding wire. if you make it shorted no charger will allow current through, if you don't short it the phone won't recognize that it had to become a usb host controller. you might get away with using some diodes to make the phone think it's shorted while the chargers think it's not, but I don't know enough about the whole process to know if the software on the phone would utilize that correctly... bottom line is I don't think it's possible.

I've just received the Analogix SlimPort HDMI adapter (SP1003) for my Nexus 5 and it works fantastically with my short 1-2 metre HDMI cables.
However, if I try a 10 metre cable, the display cycles between on and off every few seconds.
Now, I'm not sure whether it's the length of the cable or if it's the cable's version. My shorter cables are most probably version 1.3 HDMI cables. The 10m one is 1.4 with ethernet.
I've read somewhere that HDMI cables with ethernet do not work with SlimPort. Is that correct? Should I order an older 1.3 version? I'm thinking 10m is a bit excessive anyway and I'll probably go for 3 to 5 metres this time anyway. But I didn't want to order one with ethernet and experience the same problem!
I have a 3m 1.4a HDMI cable and experience the exact same situation. Same happened with a MHL 1.0 adaptor I tried with SG Note 3, so I concluded the cable is just to long for a phone to provide signal. But I'm not sure about this.
I have a hdmi 1.4w/ethernet cable that I use with my slimport. About 2m I think. No problems.

If you don't mind me asking, from where did you pick up your Analogix SlimPort? It looks like it's only available from a 3rd party seller on Amazon for $50, and I can't find any other reputable sellers that still sell it for it's original $30 price (or preferably lower ). Thanks.
So I sent the 10m cable back and ordered the cheapest 3m cable I could find from Amazon UK here. It doesn't even say what version it is, so I assumed it was 1.3 without ethernet.
I got lucky as this cable works perfectly. No dropouts at all.

Same here. Using OnePlus USB C to micro USB adapter and Sandisk OTG USB drive. It does not seem to detect the OTG drive

The OnePlus 2 type-C to micro-USB adapter is a non-standard thing. It was required for the OP2 because the OP2 type C USB is broken.
Try a generic adapter. That's the real test. Generic adapters didn't work on the OP2.
Hmm, so on the OnePlus forums, this seems to be the consensus ... The OnePlus Adapter was for the non-standard Type C on the OP2 and will only allow charging on the OP3, but not OTG. So far, third party standards compatible adapters seem to be working fine. I just ordered the Xiaomi Type C adapter and should get it in a week. Will post here again if it works.

I bought this one from Skiva https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0140YRZDQ/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And use it with a cruze usb 3, the only drawback is that is taking forever to see some mp4 videos recorded from a gopro that are saved in the USB
I bought this and it works perfectly: http://www.ebay.com/itm/351729709215?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
I can confirm the Xiaomi Type C Micro USB adapter does NOT work for OTG. Yes, I had OTG enabled, no go!
I'm not seeing an option to enable usb otg in settings/storage. I'm on Oxygen 3.1.3. Am I just missing it? Do I need to unlock developer options first?

Is there any cable which would allow you to charge and read an external flash drive? Never tried OTG before, so I don't know if this is even possible.
