changing HDMI output resolution - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so I have this TV that supports FHD resolution up to [email protected] It runs smooth on 1080i it's probably at 60Hz and also runs smooth at lower resolutions like 720p. the problem is I can't set the resolution to run on. I just connect the cable and it automatically runs on 1080p.
at first I thought it might be something wrong with the 11pin cable I bought but then I tested it on another TV and it automatically entered 720p mode... which is interesting because as far as I know that TV is also a FHD TV. the thing is... it ran pretty smooth at that resolution and I would be happy if I could set the Note 3 to run on a custom resolution on my TV like 1080i or at least 720p.
any way I could do that?

Its up to the TV if it has resolution setting. If not, Take a look at "Resolution Changer Pro"

Not only is that a paid app but also requires root.
any free workaround that doesn't require root?
I called Samsung service a couple of minutes ago and they said the phone automatically connects to a certain resolution (yeah tell me something new). the point is this: it actually connects to various resolutions depending on the TV. for example on my tv it connects to [email protected] but on another tv it conmects to [email protected] (which btw is way smoother). on my TV even the Note1 knows how to connect to [email protected] instead of [email protected] (which is laggy). I wonder what makes the Note3 connect to certain resolution: is it the TV's software or is it the Note3's software...?

Its up to both phone and TV about resolutions.
About the app - not everything is free and non-root.

agreed, so I would like if I could choose among all the possible resolutions my TV supports.

i connect my note 3 to tv and its automatic connect at 1080p/30hz but my tv can support 60hz can i change it somehow?

why didn't samsung allow us to choose among all the possible resolutions it can connect to successfully (obviously the phone can detect that)? what do they think, are we that stupid not to make the right choice for us when it comes to resolution?
actually what they're doing, they try to push their TVs on our through. when I called service they asked if my TV was a Samsung TV almost like if they weren't willing to offer support unless my TV was Samsung.

Sounds familiar. I also contacted them to fix their crappy HDMI settings in firmware as Im not getting more than 720p on 1080p HDTV. They said they will let know their devs and hopefully soon be resolved. Seems like nobody speaks about HDMI but many people have issues

well.. at least it runs smooth on your TV. If only it ran at [email protected] on my TV it would be ok for me. The ideal solution for my TV would be 1080i and it's interesting that both my ex-Note 1 and 2 run at that resolution..

ok my mistake. today got the genuine hdmi mhl adapter from samsung and all is great 1080p/60. check my thread. the guy explained well about my problem. you will need mhl1 (I posted link where I bought it). it works on 720/60 and 1080i only

c'mon man are you kidding me? I have 2 MHL1s!! none of which works with Note 3. how else do you think I tested Note 1? MHL1 only has 5 pin and is for Note 1. MHL2 has 11 pin and is for Note 2 and 3.
ok... ok... so what do you have to do in order that Note 3 works with MHL1?
edit: just tried again with both MHL1 cables. they do absolutely nothing on Note 3. they only work with Note 1. they don't work with Note 2 also. Note 2 also requires 11 pin cable not 5 pin. Note 2 and Note 3 work with THE SAME MHL 2 cable. the difference is that Note 2 automatically connects at [email protected] while Note 3 automatically connects at [email protected] and there one more weird thing. Note 2 doesn't work unless a charger is also plugged in MHL2 while Note 3 works without the charger. for some reason even if I connect the charger it still doesn't charge the Note 3 while if I connect the charger directly to the Note 3 it charges it. It's a little bit weird. how come Note 2 gets charged through MHL2 and Note 3 doesn't? how come Note 2 connects automatically at [email protected] while Note 3 connects at [email protected]

not sure what you're talking about. Note 3 works with MHL2 not 1. it won't connect on MHL1 which is 5 pin
edit: see the edited post above

Thats why I suggested If you want to read my thread. MHL2 is not necessary 11 pin. Also its very possible that they disabled 1080i on Note 3

please provide a link to your thread. I don't know what thread you're talking about. plus I tried both my mhl1's (I bought two by mistake) and... they don't work with my Note3. they don't even charge the Note3. plus I had a problem recently after I tried mhl1 and didn't work switched to mhl2 and the tv wouldn't connect to Note3 even by mhl2. it would flicker something from time to time but wouldn't start. restarted my note3 and the problem was still there. eventually I turned off the tv and turn it on again and it would be back to 'normal'... [email protected] so I taught maybe I should try again doing this with mhl1 and tried again mhl1 restarted my phone and tv a couple of times and with no effect. provide me a link to the thread you're talking about

when you use MHL with the Note 3, I had to have the power plugged in and the HDMI out to the TV and the last thing to plug in is the phone
then it works; you will see the phone on your tv. If you don't do the right order it doesn't work
I am trying to find a way to hook up the phone via MHL HDMI without plugging in power but I have heard of any yet
I played a bunch of 1080 videos on a 720 Plasma and they looked excellent including sports with motion

not working... it might have to do with the fact that the charger I use isn't an original samsung one. I'll try tomorrow with the original charger and let you know if it works
Sent from my SM-N9005 using xda app-developers app

so I'm not testing this anymore. It was obvious it wouldn't work. I mean common, who are you kidding, not even Note 2 works with MHL1. Note 2 works, just like Note 3 only with the 11pin MHL2. the difference is Note 2 needs to be charged while Note 3 needs not. I followed your instructions and plugged them accordingly. even used 3 different chargers, the last one being an original samsung one. Nothing.

Making Streamer Out of Nexus 10 (Via HDMI Cable), Will it be Worth it?

Hello to all people,
I've been reading quite a lot lately about (android) tablets because I want to buy one at last.
I managed to shrink my options to 2: Nexus 10 and Asus Transformer Pad Infinity.
After hard digging about the Infinity in the forums I decided to drop it and go with Nexus 10.
One of the reasons I want a tablet is to make a streamer on the go from it...
I want to connect it to my TV with a HDMI cable to stream some movies.
But from tons of the reviews I read, I only noticed one review mentioning the quality and stability of the streaming. And It wasn't positive.
So I am asking you guys (and girls), what's your experiences on using the tablet this way?
Sorry for my poor English, its not my native language.
Thank you in advance for your answers,
Leon.
HDMI streaming works good. The picture quality is great; however, I do not get any audio through HDMI. This might be a cable issue. Not a big deal since you can output audio through the audio jack.

Just tried it. Works great hooked up to my surround set. I get audio as well so everything works

Thanks for the answer you 2.
Although there is many threads on some issue when streaming via HDMI, like no sound and black stripes on the sides and flickering I was reading....
makes me kinda worry...
Can you make full-screen the tv with no black spaces in the sides? i hate that

Works great on the N10. Don't buy an Asus tablet though. Their software is laggy and buggy as hell, and they don't support their devices. I had a TF201 and it was absolutely nothing but headaches. Stay away from Asus. You've been warned.

Well that's why I said I am choosing Nexus 10 over the Asus one... You are not the only one who suffered, and I read most of the complains people wrote.
I have other question though.
Since I lack the experience on the issue:
How does optical audio cable can be used with an HDMI cable to stream audio from the first and video from the second?
Asking because I have a receiver connected to my 5.1 audio set.
Does work, but mine struggles with higher bitrate 1080p movies over wifi.
There are bars but these may be able to be removed if you get rid of the 3 quick buttons at the bottom, not sure if this is possible with custom software.
Not quite sure what you mean by this comment:

Couldn't agree more. I tried out a TF700 from Amazon for a month, and during that period I had to exchange once from Amazon for a defect in the screen, then send the replacement in for warranty repair because of the same problem. Got it back from warranty 'repair' and it had the same problem in a different location of the screen. Returned them both to Amazon and bought a Nexus 10 from the Play store on launch day.
Couldn't be happier.
I was also amused that the rep claimed they had no prior reports of the screen/bezel problem, when the TF700 threads on here are filled with posts about it. And of course, if you've unlocked your bootloader (using the tool they provide) you have absolved them of any responsibility to repair manufacturing defects that passed through 'quality control' at their factory.

I know that Nexus 10 does not posses optical audio port (TOSLINK), so I was wondering what people that want to use this sort of audio output do? Withought forgetting that the HDMI cable is beeing used for the picture and not the sound...

Yes, I'd like to know that also. My previous tablet was a BB PlayBook and it had controls for when you were connected to HDMI that let you control the output resolution, whether audio was passed through etc.. Is there anything like this in Android?

Tried it but doesn't work with my rooted Nexus 10. The screen flashes and stays on instead of turning off.
I connected the Nexus 10 to my TV:
- stereo audio is ok
- bad picture quality (its resizing)
- big black borders at the left and right side
- wrong frame rate on TV - movies look very bad
for me its a no go. Its absolutely not worth it.
I think it certainly must be possible as toslink is digital audio and hdmi outputs digital audio as well. I don't think any conversion would be needed so all you need is someone who makes the cables and takes the audio pinouts from the hdmi and routes them to a toslink cable as well. Unfortunately there isn't exactly a massive demand for such a cable so either find someone who makes the cables or maybe trawl the hi-fi websites to see if anywhere would sell them.

Well if you want to play a video or game via the video out mhl the thing is worthless if its output is at 30hz it just hicks up al over the place.
I purchased this devices because of the output at 60hz but sadly I have to bring it back as its output is at 30hz like the S3 which is just crap for gaming and video.
For video it will frame skip and gaming it will be laggy on gameplay so a piece of 450 euro crap.

You need a mhl 2.0 cable. If you use the same cable as S3 uses you will only get 1080p30.

Samsung you bastards!!!! Ok to get serious what do I need then ?
I need USB connections like on this device and HDMI out at 60hz.
Maybe you will need this thing: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA27H0PT0127
It says its MHL2.0 and is backwards compatible with MHL1.0 (but you will have to power it with micro USB cable)
There is no mentioning about the output but search with the model name and somewhere it will be mentioned.
This was known before launch to be honest. They made it very clear that this will be MHL 2 phone which meant all our existing accessories will be absolute. Sucks to be honest, but that is the name of the game. Sometimes they simply have to cut the cord to move to next standard.
In the end i've got the mhl 2.0 cable which works fine and it outputs at 1080p60hz. This is great for gaming. Movies I can use the dock for. I just attached a 1TB usb drive ExFat formatted and reads it fine. You do need to have a powered usb hub in between though. The dock doesn't have enough power to keep the drive spinning.

Question about MHL 2.0 ...

I just bought MHL2.0 adapter for my galaxy s4
but it didn't works with my Samsung SyncMaster B2230 LCD :crying:
I tried with different HDMI cables to connect MHL2.0 and LCD but it keep showing crash screen
After that I tried on my Panasonic Viera LCD TV (bought in 2008 or 2009) and it works fine !
It just show 720p screen because my TV only can support up to 720p
So can anyone help me to solve this issue ?
or Monitor should support MHL then only can works ? like Samsung S23B550V ?
P.S. Sorry for my bad English
Can anybody help me ?
Dont know about your problem but mine just arrived and im quite hacked off. I thought the whole reason for the mhl 2.0 was it didnt require external power to work but it does. Without external power mine does nothing !

Does anyone know if the Slimport output is rendered natively at 1920x1080 or is it a vertically compressed scale of the tablet's 1920x1200?
If only mirror mode is supported I gotta guess that it's a scale and not a native 1080p.
Or is there a "second display" option that allows the TV to display it's own independent Android workspace, sort of like "extended desktop" for Windows?

Hi the new Nexus 7 isn't in the UK at the moment, but I'm curious to know about the quality of movie play back via the slim port.

Hi
I have a new 2013 Nexus 7 tablet which I can connect to HDMI port on TV via a Slimport adaptor which the Nexus 7 supports. Display works fine when I connect to Samsung LCD 40eh5300 tv but not when I connect to my 55ST60. The display looks fine except that it blinks every 1o seconds or so -picture disappears then comes back on again. Appreciate if anybody has an idea why this may be happening and how I may fix it.

This is the cable I am using that I had bought for my Note 2 (I'm sooo happy Samsung decided to go with Micro-USB on this device).

Watch out community, I purchased this adapter from amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006FTKM12/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
it does not work!
Anyone tried Nyrius ARIES Prime/pro Digital Wireless HDMI Transmitter & Receiver System on note 10.1 yet? I think this will be the perfect solution for wireless display.

It might be the older 5 pin version when the newer Samsungs have moved onto 11 pin adapters.
You could either upgrade or get an 5 pin to 11 pin adapter.
On a somewhat related note: Does this tablet have miracast support?

It should...it has a mirror screen function that works with Samsung all share cast hub(kind of miracast?)
The Samsung all share cast works as long as unrooted.

I tried the Samsung HDMI adapter I bought last year for my Note 2. It works for the Note 2 but not Note 3. The HML adapter will show like a dark snow effect and without it on it is a blank TV. I'm not sure if it has something to do with the TV resolution :/

same here, my MHL adapter for Note 2 doesn't work with this tablet.
You need the new version that they released with the s4

I just purchased the black on mentioned in the 2 post hope that works ok.
MHL works
l picked up one from Monoprice that came with the 5 to 11 pin converter. Worked fine with the tablet and my S3 watching streamed content with the Hulu plus subscription included with the tablet.
I'm sorry but I am not following this thread very well. If I want to connect my 10.1 2014 to a HDMI TV what exactly do I need (as has been confirmed to work)?

I haven't tested it but It works with my S4, says its compatible with Note 3 and Note 8 so should work on this.
I haven't tested this on my new 10.1 2014 yet, BUT
It works great on my Galaxy S 4 so I'm confidant it will work. I normally don't order generic and always go with Samsung OEM, but since it's near impossible to find a genuine Samsung one for a reasonable price I ordered from mycablemartDOTCOM since I LOVE their HDMI cables/adapters.

Hope this helps someone!
My Note 2 adapter works just fine!
I purchased the note 2 adapter from Samsung and it works perfectly with my 2014 edition!
bought this but doesn't connect
Cable Matters Micro-USB to HDMI MHL Adapter in Black and Charging Cable in Black 1 Metre* from Amazon.
It connects straight to my htc one x but not my galaxy 10.1 note.
Is it just not compatible or do I need to change settings on my tab?
My mhl works fine that I got for my s4. It also works for my note 3 with the USB 3.0. Since the galaxy s3 you need a mhl 2.0 adapter. They have extra pins. The old mhl won't work on newer Samsung devices

The catch being it is a battery drain. Net negative even when charging. You can not even watch a complete movie if streaming Netflix on the S4.
Near worthless as a result on the S4.
