Hello, sorry if this is being asked in the wrong section but I couldn't find a S8 Active forum. My question is does the active support usb-c to hdmi output like the S8 and S8+? Only reason I ask is because when I look up the usb-c to hdmi adapter on Samsung site and click supported devices it only lists the s8 and s8+, however when I look up the s8 active on Samsung site and click supported accessories it lists the usb-c to hdmi adapter. I would imagine it would,, since its supposed to be basically the same phone but want to be 100% sure before I buy one. This is a make or break option and the reason I want this phone in particular is because I have a wireless charger in my truck and my s7 edge only works when I take it out of the case. This is a hassle to deal with taking the case off and putting it back on and it's too thin for me to handle without a case plus it would scratch easy without a case. The active doesn't need a case. Does anyone know for certain that the usb-c to hdmi adapter will work with the s8 active.
The Samsung USB-C to HDMI adapter works fine for me on S8 Active.

Is yours the AT&T U.S. version or the European version? I only ask, because they have different chipsets with slightly different features., and I want to make sure before shelling out around $40 for the Samsung adapter.
I use this on my AT&T S8+ on TV's at home and hotels all the time.

Mine is working with the US At&T version.
ahurst12, are you using the S8 Active or the S8/S8+? Several vendors on Amazon selling USB-C to HDMI adapters have responded to people on the Questions/ Answers stating that the S8 Active doesn't output to HDMI. I have an S8 active and none of the HDMI adapters I've bought work.
If anyone using ONLY an S8 active has a working HDMI adapter, please post the brand and link to the product to help the rest of us.
Thank you sincerely
DarkNighttx, I'm using the Galaxy S8 Active, At&t version running nougut.
I don't have a link for it, but the USB C to HDMI adapter that is working for me was purchased from the Samsung website. It was listed for the 8 and 8+, but works fine on my Active.

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

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?
I recently got a Verizon Note 4 and found out my TV is MHL compatible. I can't seem to figure out if I need a MHL 3.0 to HDML adapter, or if there is a simple cable that I can connect to my tv. Any help would be much appreciated since I just found out about MHL and I'm having a difficult time figuring out what I need to buy.
hi guys
I bought the Glyph headset which needs phones with hdmi support
can I use the v20 with glyph, I kindly appreciate your answer because I made the mistake buying the s7 edge and it does not work with hdmi
Not a HDMI slot on the Verizon one that I can see

yes mhl
please can anyone test if lg v20 support mhl to work with hdmi tvs
Hey, the LGV20 can achieve HDMI connection via Slimport, they just released it today but is already unavailable, I contacted Slimport and they sent me the link to purchase it via Amazon, but I have to wait until it is back in stock. Here is the link - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M733OQ...TF8&colid=3VG3W7D1P2WC4&coliid=I340M8K4L0HATV
So to be clear, the LG V20 does not support MHL, the hdmi connection is achieved via Slimport which is different technology

No problem, I was excited to find out this phone can connect to a tv or any device that has hdmi via Slimport since Samsung ditched MHL for the last like 3 phones they released, so LG to the rescue! :highfive:

To be CLEARER than clear the LG v20 DOES INDEED SUPPORT MHL. Understand, MHL does require an adapter. Supporting MHL doesn't mean you don't have to buy something else inbetween the TV and the phone. What it means is the something else you have to buy is an MHL adapter. I am not familiar with this slimport adapter, but just because it does support that, does not mean it doesn't support MHL. So if you get an MHL adapter with a USB C connector that says it supports the LG v20 then you can plug the output from that adapter into your HDMI input on your television. As I have done with mine. I don't know of any smartphone nor have I ever seen one that doesn't require an adapter or adapter cable to be able to plug into a television set and share its video.
It can use any usb c to hdmi adapter. I bought a random usb c to usb a/ethernet/hdmi and hdmk, usb a and ethernet all work on the v20 with it. I know it's a necro post but seemed important
I've just tested my v20 and hooked it up to an LG tv (mhl capable) via mhl cable with a USB c adapter... It didn't work. The adapter has been confirmed to work fine...
This $10 adapter specifically lists the V20 as compatible: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0123PJ9BK
I have a dual Sim Samsung S8+ G955FD
I need to replace my USB charging port
do any of you guys know where I can get one for the G955FD?
and I live in UK by the way
hopefully you guys can help me out and thank you for your time for reading this.
I am wondering this as well, did you find a good one? I need it for my S8 G950F because the phone is not charging anymore and it is bad connection inside :\
I would consider either one of you buying a daughterboard for your phones and just replace it. Easiest way of fixing that problem.
You can buy a daughterboard/charging ports on eBay or ifixit (or many other sites, AliExpress, etradesupply...).
I think that the g950 version should fit both, the F and the FD as well as the the g950 should work in the g955
Worst case would be, you have to insert the old one and wasted 15-30$.

S8+

And for ebay, just search for Samsung Galaxy g95xxx (your version) charging port.
There should be some products that fit for you.

all the active/dual sim/snapdragon models share the same hardware so you can find them just about anywhere. Order up a new glass back/adhesives as well because Ive yet to remove one without scratching some paint off of one..
Depending on how often and where you charge picking up a wireless charging station and just using that is also an option.
Hello, is there a compatible Earphone Headset Adapter USB C AUX Audio Cable?
It's impossibile to find original.
Thanks
I got four of the official Samsung adapter. Works great and gets frequent OTA firmware updates. I got them very quickly with my preorder Samsung bucks. Also got the Galaxy Buds free that way, so I haven't had to use wired headphones much.

On Amazon I have bought one with Realtek ALC4042, the last chipset( I don't know, how to verify, if there is inside this chipset?!?) and it's works with any headset, but with microphone inside original Samsung earphone it doesn't. Then with any 4 contact jack I think that it doesn't work, I will return it.
Now I have bought one original from Samsung site and I will try it.
