So, what kind of cable should I get and where can one get it ?
A bit more googling turned up this link, which seems to be the right cable: http://www.blahdvd.com/Hw/Samsung-Original-Samsung-Micro-USB-TV-Out-Cable/AATCX10CBEC/product.htm
Still in the UK though, I wonder if they're available somewhere closer to home :/
the Nokia N95 TV Out cable works perfect.
I believe we have a winner (price-wise): http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.31498
4,73 American lollerdollarz and no shipping !
instead of the 3 colours is it possible to get the HDMI connection instead??

I too am wondering if this is possible.
thanks
I don't think its possible to do HDMI out I'm afraid.
Can confirm Nokia cables work perfectly, I have an old one that I'm using.
They can be purchased cheaply on Ebay.

You don't think buy your not sure, hmmm lets hope you can do it, the 3 colors seem to me so old now.
I gotta have to go to shops look for a hdmi cable and try b4 you buy.
Can anyone else confirm this, if it works or not for sure?
The phone will only output analogue audio/video as far as I am aware. While you might be able to find a headphone to HDMI lead, the picture won't be any better.
Ordered a lead this morning from eBay, £1.94 delivered from the UK rather than H.K.

I got one of those from Maplin for £5.99 and it comes with a handy round pin plug that charges my gps receiver as well
I have also got a battery extender that powers the XDA from 4 AA size batteries, but needs tweeking as it will discharge the XDA if connected for an extended period. I am guessing that a diode will solve the problem

That'll be Sony's newer Playstation Pocket, rather than normal Playstation console.
regular mini usb cable will do
hey, i wanted an additional sync/charge cable to keep at the office, so i bought a simple usb/mini usb cable for 3$ at a local pc store -works perfectly.
the pda specialist store at the same shopping center wanted 25$ for the same thing, essentialy - just called it a sync/charge cable for UNIVERSAL... bastard thieves.

as much as carriers molest phones, AT&T is throwing in a free mhl adapter with the Infuse
Interestingly, Phones4U said that an MHL adapter was included with their GSIIs when I enquired about price last week.
Not sure if its been posted or if anyone even cares but here you go.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAP...67&ViewItem=&item=190668198386#ht_2240wt_1396
Ordered one the last time they ran the deal, shipping didn't take long like many people say about them. It was shipped UPS Basic but seemed just as fast as ground. They sent it in a box way too big and it came open sometime during shipping according to UPS. Luckily it wasn't damaged since the Motorola packaging is pretty good.
This isn't the lapdock 100, it's the Atrix 4g lapdock.

It can be used as a generic HDMI display as shown in this video using a PS3 with it:

The microUSB port is powered and also provides OTG support so the keyboard, touchpad and 2 USB ports.

Hi all,
1st week into my S3 and well chuffed with it.
Seen the option to be able to play movies to an HDMI telly using an adapter.
There is a geniune branded one on fleabay for £20+ GBP and then a non-branded on for a fraction of that price ( ~£7.50GBP )
Just wondered whether anybody has experience either way to suggest whether the cheap option is worth it or not.
Thx
Beware...

If the cheap one says its also compatible with any other phone than the S3 then it will be a 5 pin MHL connector one, and won't actually work with your S3, even though the seller says it does... The S3 uses an 11pin MHL connector. The cheap ones work fine if you add a 5 to 11 pin MHL adapter add-on ..you can find the adapter add-on for about $10 on ebay
aaah okay so I either find an 11 pin MHL or just go for genuine SS. I'll browse fleabay to see whats out there.
EDIT : This was saved in my fleabay faves, it definately says 11pin but metions S2 & S3. Would YOU trust?

Amazingly I can't even find any of those adapter tips on UK eBay, and if I set to search other countries they trying to charge on average £20 delivery so the cheapest I can find one for is £27.
So can someone point me in the right direction to get one at a reasonable price.

Guys! am I missing something here??? I'm correct to assume my S3 is 11-pin right??
Lets go back to my ebay link : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130752544096?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649
This item is £7.59GBP inclusive of shipping and clearly states S3 & 11 pin in the body of the text.
So is this item good to go ?
Would the Galaxy Note one work?
Am I right in thinking that the 11 pin SGS3 MHL cable is compatible with the S2 and the Note (i.e. backwards compatible)?
Don't confuse this with the S2 and Note MHL connector working with the S3 - I know it doesn't.
Can someone actually check with an S3 MHL connector and an S2 or a Note and confirm please?
What is the best one for me to purchase? I looked online and they vary wildly in price, and some require external power to even function.
Anyone have some recommendations?

The cable from monoprice "mhl hdmi cable for android phones and tablets" works and doesn't need a power cord, it comes with everything you need including adapters. New here, so I can't post links

Whatever you do, Don't buy the super cheap ones off Amazon. Buy the more expensive Samsung one. I've bought several cheaper ones of Amazon and they always break or have super bad quality. They have "Samsung" branded ones on Amazon for 20$ but then you run the risk of getting counterfeit. I ordered this one straight from Samsung http://m.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ET-H10FAUWESTA over 8 months ago, and have used it across 3 devices (S3, S4, and Note 3) and haven't had any problems. Good luck!

No problem, glad I could be helpful. Another thing I would recommend is the Samsung smart dock. Found herehttp://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009QW3TBK/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1382314772&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70 it has a whole bunch of features. It is a USB hub, MHL adaptor, dock and headphone jack all in one. It's a bit spendy but an amazing little gadget. You can put your phone on it and just plug an HDMI cable straight into it and it works. It's pretty freaking cool.
