Hi,

Could you please elaborate? How do you mean that the connection does not work any more? What kind of MHL adapter are you using?

I have tried with our MHL to HDMI Adapter IM750 and it works fine for Xperia Z Ultra with 5.1.1. Since this is a third party adapter, it's hard for me to guarantee full compatibility with our products. I suggest that you check if you can try your Z Ultra with our IM750 or a TV that supports MHL to see if it works, just to exclude problems related to your phone.

I HATE YOU SONY!!!!!

You ruined all of my Z ultras for my car visor project!!

your 5.1.1 killed the MHL function on my 3rd party adapter.

either start selling the IM-750 again, or fix what you broke!

EVEVRYTHING I OWN IS SONY! and will burn it on you tube if you dont fix this!

I have the exact same problem on my Sony Xperia zl. Mhl worked flawlessly before the upgrade to Android 5.1.1 

Now I can only see that Mhl detected on the mobile but nothing on the TV. The same mhl cable works fine with another Sony Xperia z ultra which is running on older Android version.

Can you help me make this mhl work.

Note: there is no problem with the mhl cable, I used it before as well with no issues.
