Difference in MHL and Slimport?

So the Slimport adapter for the N4 looks identical to the MHL adapter I have for my SG3. What is the difference? I been thinking about trying the MHL adapter when I get home.

I read somewhere that slim port has the chip in the cable whereas mhl has it inside the device.

Also, SlimPort apparently supports the possibility of an analog (eg. VGA) connection, while MHL only supports HDMI/DVI and similar.

As it says, the DVI, DisplayPort, and VGA adapters aren't available yet.

Solution for HDMI or MHL Question of Note 3.

I just saw some guys mentioned that they are not sure hdmi or mhl functionality of note 3 and few people discussion MHL/ hdmi output. I write this to told you all who cares HDMI output of note 3. I am sure to tell that note 3 support MHL, which is is an industry standard for a mobile audio/video interface that allows consumers to connect mobile phones, tablets and other portable consumer electronics (CE) devices to high-definition televisions (HDTVs) and audio receivers. (here is the official link , shows that note 3 support MHL).
Therefore, if you guys who want to display note 3 via the MHL port of note 3 to a HDTV screen, all you need is a MHL to HDMI converter.
And also, found a video guide for reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NjUJN10m_Q
Any questions on MHL or HDMI, please give your feedback here. I am ready to help.

I can't get MHL cable to work through HDMI on TV.
I am using this cable. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I am using the 11 pin adapter. The cable works with my galaxy s3 but not note 3. I read it could be a kit kat issue. I am running MOAR_S5_Port v5 10-26-14. http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...5port-t2836713
Anyone else have this problem?

[Review] Z1 Compact + FIIO E6

Sup guys!
After few never ending discussions and ramblings I had bought Z1 Compact last week along with Sony XB920 (aka MDR-X10) anticipating that it could easily drive those 50mm, 24Ohms cans (Basshead).
I was quite disappointed after having it compared with my previous phone "WT19i, Live Walkman" which had better output over the Z1's. But I didn't quit there, I explored and bought the FIIO E6. I avoided USB DAC because this phone had a flap over the USBs and is really inconvenient to hook up DAC.
I must say, E6 filled the gap. The Bass, The Amplitude, all amped! I use PowerAMP for music, hasn't let me down. Being compact in size, I've been thinking to mod my second Nillkin Frost Case, and may be fix the amplifier at the back. Only thing which bothered me was the "Mini USB port" for charging on the E6, would have been convenient if it were a micro.
Would like to know if anyone has tried any other DAC or amp along with the pair of headphones used.

Few questions before buying

Hello
I've found a Nexus 7 2013 online selling for 75 USD. I've never really searched for the Nexus before now so i'm unsure if this is actually a decent or even good price, or if it's pretty normal.
Also, i'm planing to use it for my car. How good is the aux output? I'm asking because not too long ago i bought a Lenovo Tab 7 tb-7504x. But the aux output isn't really good. Sound quality is ok, but the volume is too low. Before that i used an old HTC Flyer, and the Audio was both, louder and better quality wise.
Thanks

If you're planning to use it in your car, ensure the USB port is'nt faulty. The 2013's micro USB is notoriously known to break. Mine is broken, but luckily the 2013 has wireless charging, so I can still charge it with a QI charger.

Any decent 3rd party usb-c hub's that can do 1440p dex?

I've tried dex on pc and its... pretty **** tbh. Framerate is real low and crashes often. My old usb-c with hdmi hub could do dex at 1440p on a note 9, but for some reason the same setup for note 10 doesn't work?
heard the dex pad works for the note 10, but its pricey and ppl have complained its useless if you got a case on it.
