I'm having the same problem at this time (S2) and it's only showing a black screen when I hook it all up.

Actually I finally was able to get it to work all at the same time. Follow these steps and you'll probably have success. 1) connect any USB device you want to use, IE keyboard/mouse/etc 2) connect the HDMI cable to the adapter but not to the tv/monitor. Alternatively you can connect to the monitor and not to the adapter. Either way don't connect it to the screen you want to use just yet. 3) connect YOUR charging cable directly from your wall-charger. The cable that was sent with the adapter to provide power must not be high enough quality to power everything and USB does not have enough 'umph' to do it either. 4) plug the adapter into your phone, verify that the phone has recognized your USB device(keyboard/mouse/etc). If not, start over from step 1. If you continue to have issues, your adapter may be defective. 5) now you can connect your HDMI cable to your screen. At first nothing will happen but within 3-5 seconds your phone's screen will turn off and your tv/monitor will turn on. hope this helped.

I've tried all ways to get my phone to play through the tv with this mhl and nothing has happened. I'm not sure if I need a different hdmi cord or not, but imma just wait for my samsung mhl adapter to come in since I have a Samsung S4.

It may have been defective. My touchscreen worked, but had a greenish tint to it. I pulled it off and am using a screen guard. You should contact the vendor and request an exchange. Good Luck.

We need more information. Did U install the software on the Samsung and did the installation go well? Please send more details, as your Samsung does not recognize the device or the cord is bad

Try to check if you are at the right corresponding HDMI input. If that doesn't work try to go to &gt; System preference &gt; displays &gt; click the HDMI output. Hope this work cause mine works fine.

It could be the power adapter. Get in touch with the manufacturer. They'll replace it. They had a recall for the original adapters. Before you do that, try to power cycle the device. Unplug all your cables, check all your connections then reboot. Always check the HDMI cables as they can be faulty. Hopefully that'll work for you. Best of luck.

Other than defective cable, basic trouble shooting: which i guess you already tied. Connect both end properly, make sure micro HDMI goes all the way in. Check you TV input & select the appropriate input for PC. Mine worked without any issue.

Mine worked right out of the box without having to use the USB cable for power, it gets it's power from the HDMI cable. I have a great picture & good color. It is possible you defective one, I would try it on another TV getting it's picture from an HDMI cable you can test into this and the video input.

Mine had the same problem and I couldn't get it to work either. Unless someone else gives you a tip I'd suggest you return it.

Did u plug the adapter into the tablet then plug the power adapter directly into the adapter, once that is done plug the HDMI cable into the adapter and TV set. If that doesn't work send back the product as it maybe defective. PS. You should be using the Samsung brand adapter.

I'd say it's defective as well. However, what device(s) do you have hooked to it? If you are trying to use 3D over it, it shouldn't work as this device is HDMI v1.3b and not v1.4. If you have multiple devices hooked to it, unhook all but one and try the different ports, it could just be a faulty port or even a bad cable. This is a great little device, I put mine in place in early 2013 and have 3 devices hooked to it, a dvr, a blueray player and a computer. I have never had too look at it again, it just keeps on working. Even if it is defective, I'd try another one because of the low price.

I had the same problem. It's probably that you have the wrong type of cable or adapter. The only one that wored for me was a mini HDMI to a lightning as I recall.I found my answer on YouTube because the company that sells the P2 jr was NO HELP!!
