no i figured it out. it was a zip file w/ apk n directions i didnt bother to read cuz i thought it was just credits or watever. i was do'n everything right but my file manager wasnt reading anything at the time (i was so frustated that i prob. had phone plugged in to PC n just didnt realize) cuz it worked later...

NOW i want to do it the hard way... i KNOW- stupid but i gotta start somewhere. i cant find the directory where setcpu is located in ADB but i'll figure it out. Suggestions welcome but its certainly not pressing im just OCD thanks 4 all the help

anyway your way wouldve been much easier. i guess i missed the link earlier
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modidlee:
You've gotta put the apk in the platform-tools folder. Mine would be C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools. To navigate adb to that folder I type cd C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools in command prompt. Hey you know there's a "ADB for dummies" thread, right? LOL I used it when I first learned. Here's another adb tutorial

How do I get cool transparent widgets shown in the examples for the theme w power widget? I have LP plus but then I lose the custom dock.

Edit:I just checked n the LP widgets aren't the same any way. Yet am I missing?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CleveRuse:
Ok.to install "setCPU" I did Wut was suggested above. After I type the 1st command it repeats the "sdk" directory (i think its called) bak to me n on that line I typed:

"adb install setcpu.apk"

Then it says:

"can't find 'setcpu.apk' to install.

I have the .apk (unzipped) file in the "platform-tools" folder. Wut am I do n wrong?

I'm running Adrynalyne's Das BAMF 1.4 with his 4.3a Kernel. I just downloaded the Kernel Manager app and i'm curious if I should first boot into CWM, clear the dalvik cache, then reboot and install the new 4.4.2 Kernel in Kernel Manager or will Kernel Manager give me the option to clear the dalvik/cache when I click "Download & Flash Kernel"?

Any help would be appreciated.

Also, i'm not sure i'm 100% clear on the dalvik cache vs regular cache. I thought I had an understanding, but I want to be sure i'm taking all the right steps when installing new Roms and Kernels.

I see an option in CWM (under Advanced) to "Wipe Dalvik Cache." Is this the only necessary step when installing a new Rom/Kernel? The way i've been doing it is is by doing a factory reset, then clearing Dalvik Cache, then installing Rom, then installing the Kernel.

Are these the right steps? Is there anything else I should be doing?

Thank you XDA, i was only recently introduced to Android and XDA, but I'm starting to learn ADB (manually rooted my phone and have pushed files to SD Card, still learning all the possibilities). This forum is awesome.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuwlness:
Well, after a little Googling, I found that if you click the "Menu" button when you're in Kernel Manager, then click "Advanced Options," you'll be given the option to have Kernel Manager clear both the caches when you flash the new Kernel.

So we should be cool using this approach. Cheers

try here, but its more expensive

http://cgi.ebay.com/Samsung-Galaxy-...183007?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5ae01ef99f

note: this was supposed to be sold for the galaxy s, but i think it didnt work, so it was abandoned. I think that what happenend. If im wrong, someone kindly correct me please :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kersh:
Hum, I think that MHL is a different kind of cable, in concept it is the same input output, but the middle conversor I dont know.

I prefer not to try at that price until I know for sure :P
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jenkinson6a:
Is this not all that is needed

Hope so as i orderd one a few hours ago.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DavidMc0:
I doubt that'll work as it's not an MHL connector, which I understand is HDMI and USB combined, but if it somehow does... bargain!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] jenkinson6a:
Lol now i look properly its not going to work at all :(
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Gilg@mesh:
imo very stupid not to use standard HDMI mini port... now we have to buy adapters and ****.. and the phone won't charge if you don't have special adapter.. epic fail imo.. anyway they should include adapters with the phone.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] NZtechfreak:
I agree, they should include the required cables and adapters in the box, other manufacturers like Nokia do with their flagship handsets.

I think MHL will ultimately be better than mini HDMI port though, since its looking very likely to become the next standard connection.

I'm hoping to get one of the MHL cable/adapters from the MHL consortium for my Clove Blog review, if I do then I will post up a youTube video for everyone. At the present time the consortium PR person is trying to procure one for me, but it seems likely its inordinately difficult, so remains to be seen whether I will have it in time for the review.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DVC1985:
In the very least, you'd expect them to have manufactured and released the accessories by the time the actual phone is released.

have spotted this adaptor for the HTC Flyer, says will be in stock 16/5

[Galaxy S II Accessories] crabjoe:
Here you go... It's supposedly the official Samsung Galaxy S II MHL adaptor.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] Hampa_D:
First stock due mid-June just saying.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] K3VL4R:
Can someone confirm for me that this is the same cable. They call it an Ethernet Micro-HDMI (Type D).

Edit: Monoprice[)0Tcom has them for like 5 bucks. I can give the link so you can see the cable once I get some more posts in here.

I'm not worried about the Ethernet part, it should not get in the way because the extra connections for it are female.

Also, there is a lot of great info on these forums. Look forward to sticking around and modding some phones in the future.

Edit 2: So when searching for the Samsung cable by Goog'ling the phone, they call it either "microUSB" or "HML port"

That site has two different types that they call: Mini-HDMI (Type C) and Micro-HDMI (Type D) the type C looks like the usual Samsung cable connection, I was just wondering if there is some different way they wired the Samsung cables so that we had to use those ones. I cannot see them doing that though since there are many devices switching to the same cable as well.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Ciddy:
The trick is that standard HDMI so far does not include a link for power. The Samsung MHL adapter has a microUSB plug that connects into the phone and a microUSB jack to connect your charger, and the mini-HDMI jack to hook up to the TV so the device gets charged while playing back. In a future specification update, HDMI will probably be amended to include a power link.

Some info here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtwTcnR0hqA
[Galaxy S II Accessories] Komatoes:
Clove told me that the MHL cables from different manufacturers will be compatible which is useful to know. I guess they all conform to the standard :-P

Just seen this in the description for the HTC version - interesting :)

" Also if your television supports MHL enabled HDMI connections, then you can charge your HTC Sensation when connected and control the Sensation using the television remote (MHL enabled televisions expected late 2011)"

Thats only true if you TV is MHL capable (hint: nobodies is yet).

[Galaxy S II Accessories] kersh:
received mine from expansys today (the bulk one).

Works perfect, but the output of the galaxy is not so good. not true 1080p, looks like a simple mirroring of the phone in a lot of options.

For example, as the phone doesnt use 1080p output in the normal GUI, you cant open a browser go to youtube an see the 1080p version in the TV without re-scale. And the app of youtube doesnt have 1080p, only normal or HQ, and HQ looks like **** in the TV.

We need more advanced devices in tv out.

What does this do?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] robbiekhan:
What do you mean what does it do? It's the standard MHL/HDMI cable for GSII, it outputs video.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] anuj25:
I meant do we have to get the mhl adapter and cable aswell? see my previous post.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] robbiekhan:
That "is" the MHL adapter. You plug it into the phone and HDMI lead to tv on the other end. Simples.

I tried to plug keyboard + mouse + stick using a usb hub but it didn't work, only one at the time; but maybe on a another hub it may act differently?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] alx37:
micro USB has 5 pins. 1+5 are for power connection. 4 is used to determine which function is on pin 2+3.

2+3 are either MHL, USB or Audio Out, no combination possible.

ALexander
[Galaxy S II Accessories] lfabresm:
OK

So... we could use MHL for connect the phone to a HDTV (or HD monitor) and use bluetooth mouse/keyboard => means a desktop PC on your hand :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sdoc96:
I think you've missed the point of MHL. The 1080p output is for

video

.

Getting the phone to render the interfaces/browser and other apps in 1080p would take alot of retooling of applications.

Also, you would then need to be rendering two different resolutions for both screens, if the screens were not in duplicate mode.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] kersh:
Thats a same, specially for youtube and flash sites if they dont give us an option to see the videos in hd full screen mode.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] sdoc96:
You have a good point there. HD flash video if full screen is selected, should trigger HD output via MHL. That, I imagine, should not be as big a deal to patch into the video output pipeline.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] NZtechfreak:
Thats what I do...
[Galaxy S II Accessories] techpal:
Can MHL Adapter be connected to any LCD tvs having HDMI port?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] :
Yes. Only thing is that you cant get it to charge using the TV since there is no mhl complaint tv as yet. You can use the miniusb charging cable for that.

Check this video. Very informative if you haven't seen it already.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] techpal:
Thanks a lot :).

If m not wrong u got ur S2 from letsbuy,so any info u got on when we will b getting MHL Adapter?
[Galaxy S II Accessories] :
No luck. By the time i ordered, they ran out of stock. So i got a package without the MHL adapter for a reduced price. I have ordered mine from Clove UK. Yet to reach me. Will ship only after 27th because they are out of stock too.

Samsung should have included all the cables with the phone. :(

[Galaxy S II Accessories] kinder__bueno:
Mobile fun really knows how to exceed expectations...

Yesterday i recieved an email from them for the mhl cable saying that the stock has been delayed, and they would only have it on warehouse at the 1st of july.

Today i recieved an email and a text message saying that it was shipped...

Strange marketing or lack of communication bethen departments?

I also want to order a MHL cable for my SII. Does it matter which one I buy (expansys version or the official samsung version)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ganeshsha:
Where can we get it india ... I m from Chennai .. How much would it it cost
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ripnard:
also at http://www.expansys-usa.com/expansys-mhl-to-hdmi-adapter-black-218572/ for usa.

Recieved mine today. Works perfect and for £12.99 (or $16.99 usd) is near half price of the samsung one. :)

Was a bit worried that it didnt have the power micro-usb slot in, but it does on the side. Note - yes as soon as the power cable is disconnected from the MHL cable - the output to tv stops.

Just plug it in and all appears on the tv. Tried HD 1080p video playback and works great. As does N64 emulator and SNES/Genesis. Works in both vertical and horizontal modes depending on the phone oriantaion. (athough vertical mode has huge black crop on left and right as should be expected!)

Some minor annoyances - on you tube and iplayer for exampe, - top notifaction bar shows - but I guess thats because the S2 is only 800x480 and not full widescreen. Also you cant turn the S2 screnn off - turn this off and the tv output stops too.

Would recommend over the samsung one shich is twice the price in uk - but in now out of stock on Expansis until 11 July :(

It also appears to be the cable used in this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtwTcnR0hqA

Guys, i just tested the BizLink MHL to HDMI adapter.

I waited 1 month to get this cable, dreaming about changing my SG S2 into desktop computer by sending 1080p to my monitor or tv, using bluetooth keyboard and mouse.

TO MY HUGE DISSAPOINTMENT i discovered yesterday the truth.

The truth is:

-Phone sends 1080i signal = BAAAAD QUALITY EVEN ON EXPENSIVE SAMSUNG MONITOR. The image swims due to interlace crap.

-The signal is maybe 1080i, but the resolution sent by phone is a loser 800x480. Come on, this was the resolution i used on my 14" monitor with AT 80286, 20 years ago.

UNFORTUNATELY this "hdmi" output is nothing else but an expensive JOKE.

Sorry Samsung, YOU FAAAIIILED in this topic BIG WAY, i'm still gonna use my quad core amd pc.

[Galaxy S II Accessories] neoand12:
It came in a box but the guy at the AT&T store took it out and throw the box away. It is the original OEM from MHL from Samsung sadly I can't post pictures seeing I have such a low post rating. But it works really well and there is no difference. The infuse is pretty much a Galaxy S II beta so i figured the MHL would work.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] ozzy lion:
It would be nicer if the adapter could be secured to the back of the tv with an MHL in port on it as well as HDMI out and USB in.

That way you could have it plugged in all the time and you would only have one cable going from the phone to the TV.

Those adapters have much too short a lead between the adapter and the phone.

I might wait patiently untill there are some nicer ones available...

Install keepvid from market and you can then search video at youtube and play HD by default video player with streaming.

What software are you using? I tried Samsung's Gallery app, mVideoPlayer, ES Video Player and RockPlayer Lite. I also only tried 24fps MKVs. Since the image is output at 30fps/hz, would that account for the stuttering? Have to try some 30fps video...
