Try while disconnected from internet: hold down power button, select "airplane mode".If it works, then your provider has cripppled your phone to prevent this form of tethering. Which means you do not have a real Android device. For me on this Note2, the cable works only if internet is disconnected.Root your device for much more functionality.

I do not use boost mobile, however here is exactly what I did to make everything work without any problems.1. Plug the Mini USB into the phone.2. Plug the HDMI into the TV.3. Plug the regular sized USB into the charger provided by Samsung.4. Enjoy!I hope this helps. All the best.

Not sure it never worked for me either. You should have stayed away. Either get a genuine mhl adapter from Samsung or one here on amazon from cable matters. Both of those worked for me although the cable matters one needs to be stable ie not moved or it will disconnect. Good luck

The user guide states to use the HDMI cable that comes with the TV for this port or to use a Hi speed 1080P cable. Not sure why this port is an exception.

I have an lg g2 and i have had to turn off my phone and tv hook up the cable. Then switch to the correct hdmi port. Hope this helps. Also make sure your phone case is not preventing the usb from making a good connection

You need a mini to micro adaptor. I have a Samsung S3 and I used this one: Insten 90 Degree USB 2.0 A Female to Micro B Male Converter Host OTG Adaptor CableYou will need something similar but compatible with your device.

So what's the verdict on this in regards to charging? Also, what are the differences between this accessory and the official Samsung Galaxy Hdmi cable?

I really can't tell you some ppl says it works for theirs doesn't work for others they are willing to give a refund if it doesn't work best bet just go head and get the one from Samsung just plug and play tried to hook the wire up to 10 different TVs with about 6 different galaxy s3 s3 mini galaxy tab 2 and 3 and the mega and some other tablets I have nothing worked sound nor picture

I'm having the same problem. No issues with the component connection, but problems with the HDMI connection. It sometimes shows fine and sometimes shows no signal (or takes 10-15 seconds to change channel). It is perfect with the Component connection.Like the others here I have a Samsung HD Cable box from Time Warner.

Sounds like a defective cable. I bought a micro hdmi to hdmi cable and it works great. Not so well with a micro hdmi adapter. If it doesn't work with another cable and/or the VGA cable, then the unit is probably defective.

Personally had no luck with the hdmi port working on this unit as others reported. Another OTG Hub or Dongle will allow this to work, i believe Aerb makes one more affordable than the Samsung hub. You can also look into a Samsung Allcast. Personally it's whether you want the device wireless and to use the phones screen, or to use a bluetooth keyboard and remote the phone in a hub wired to the TV.On the previous answer, if you use this unit "and it works", the Tablet or Smartphone enters mirroring mode, basically whats on the screen goes to the monitor or tv. No other apps are needed. Personally had no luck with the hdmi port working on this unit as others reported.

I am having this exact same issue. I know this is an older posting but I thought I would see if I can ressurect it. I find that if I go to hdmi control and turn the switching off and then back on again it comes to life. sometimes. sometimes it just starts working after a while like it has to warm up or something. did any of you guys figure out what was going on?

I have a kindle & I ordered the HDMI cable so I can watch my Videos on my Samsung TV. Your cable resolution number has to be high in order to see a nice clear picture. If your watching a specific HD video, you shouldn't have problems seeing the clarity. Mine works fine, just remember to purchase a cable with high resolution. :)

No you need an hdmi adapter ready for a Galaxy S3 look up adapter for hdmi galaxy s3, this is for accessories and USB drives, not video

Just guessing, you can't use this if you have a custom ROM, is not supported. Also, don't know if you are plugin this to the charger. You NEED to plug the charger to this. This is how is should be connected: HDMI to adapter, phone charger to adapter then adapter to phone. (maybe not in that order, but try)

I have never seen a phone that had a micro or regular HDMI. There may be a few out there. I am sure you want a mini/micro to regular USB cable. Sorry I took so long to reply.

I have three of these units and have had no problem. Try using another cable, most smart phones use the same connector for charging.
