MHL support

I knew the Z3C have supported MHL, but I have tried to link TV but in vain, I saw my LG TV(42LN5400-DA) expressed 1080p, it can show the mobile screen for few second, and interrupt flash out no signal, I hope someone can help me to solve this problem, thanks.

That's quite odd, try different cables and tvs if possible

I give up, I might buy a new tablet pad to use.

I have been using MHL soon after I bought the Z3C but my adapter came directly from the MHL consortium, whom I contacted due to the issue of not finding a MHL 3.0 5pins adapter easily...

However I have also a cable that came with a samsung TV which is also 5pins and both works like a charm...

What I don't like is that the phone barely charges and mostly discharges when watching any content.

But it works great specially with a Sony TV since the color buttons of the remote are fully compatible (CEC)...
