Video Out.

Hey everyone!
My Nexus 7 will be here Wednesday (YAY!)
And I just read that the USB port isn't MHL
Without buying the Nexus Q (All I have in the country is my 4g tether) how can I use an external monitor on my new tablet?
I noticed that there are 4 pogo pins on the nexus 7 vs the 3 on the galaxy nexus. Is there video out on these? Also my M18x has something called WI-HD that allows me to wirelessly transmit my monitor signal to a reciever connected to my tv. Is there any way my new tab can do something similar? I suppose I can just use my galaxy nexus for my Play TV shows but I was kind of looking forward to playing games on the big screen.
Thanks!

Bump. any suggestions guys?

There is no cable solution... chances are there will be a software WiFi Direct solution, but not yet.

Thanks for the info.

[Q] Nexus 4 TV Out

Hi guys,
I recently bought a google nexus 4 running android 4.2.1 stock.
I have been trying to connect it to my tv using a HML adapter however when i connect it all up and set the tv to the appropriate setting (HDMI 1)
the screen just remains blank and there is no sound.
I have been unable to find a tv out option anywhere in settings, and i am wondering if it should just work when connected automatically or is there a setting somewhere i have been unable to find?
Thanks for the help!

The nexus 4 does not have a MHL chip in it. You will have to get a miracast wireless display adapter or slimport cable

I was wondering if the TV has to be full hd or just hdready?

[Q] Looking for a new car stereo

Hi I'm looking for a new stereo for my old 4runner, does anyone know an aftermarket stereo that is compatible with the nexus 4?
I want to stream music using Google play music all access preferably thru Bluetooth.
Please leave any recommendations.

I think as long as the stereo supports a2dp it will stream through Bluetooth

Appradio 3 or Pioneer z150bh. Screen mirroring from phone on head unit, add miracast ptv3000 for wireless video instead of slimport if preferred. I love it.

Yup u need the one designated for the s4. I sent u that link as an example of what they are. Personally I would get it from samsung. I've bought 3 that said they work with s4 and they didnt. I have a friend who got the one from Samsung and his works fine.

a lot of them DO work with the S4 still that are "older" mhl adapters, but you also need the 5 to 11 pin adapter for those to work like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0089...qid=1388224095&sr=8-10&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70
Otherwise, just get one line what was noted a couple of posts up, as it's already utilizing the 11pins and saves you the trouble. (make sure you're getting a legit one & check the reviews!)
Alternately, you can get the allshare cast hub (by Samsung) which also mirrors via hdmi.
It is also possible without an mhl dongle or allshare cast hub to push things (pics, movies & youtube) directly if you have tv/home theater/blu ray that's dlna enabled to push to.
I've done it from the older mhl w/ 11 pin adapter, newer 11 pin, allshare hub & by dlna enabled device without issue. I mainly use the latter nowawdays, but still use the other methods on occasion because of the screen mirroring.
As a side note, both mhl adapters are OEM.

Its sad I didn't know this thing had HDMI out capabilities

mhl adapter question.??

hello to all
being that the mhl cable won't work on s7 edge does anybody knows if this would work before i buy one=

From my understanding mhl is not enabled in s7. Mirrorcasting should work though to stream video and audio.

I hate that it seems like current Android OS doesn't support MHL. This is one of the reason I kept my iPhone. Its a bad idea to have to use WIFI to stream a video and then have to use it to cast a video at the same time.

What are you looking to do?

Would the Samsung micro usb to hdmi adapter do the job?

nope it is not supported on the edge 7 i still have my old one from the galaxy s5 no go

well the Belkin Miracast Video Adapter HDMI For Android or Windows came today works fine with my s7 edge and my dell laptop and tablet so i guess no need for a mhl cable adapter. very happy camper today

Chromecast is a nice cheap option as well.
