Unless you are talking about using MHL and powering it with USB for a direct phone mirror rather than via Chromecast.

Unless you have a smart tv which i doubt.

You cant jsut throw shit to the tv lol

You gotta have a chromecast or an amazon stick

Or one of the many boxes they sell.

Do u have anyof these?

[Diode]

MHL works. You do not need a smart TV. I have a cable that works on any phone that supports it. Worked on my old S4 too.

Word if that cord is real....which apparently it is...lol....it will mirror ur phone screen....no smart tv or streaming device necessary

Boom

NC has solved this for u uh oh.

Should we call best buy for u also?

Fuckface

Nah I didn't mean that

Ur cool :)

Thanks for explaining mhl

[Witty]

Punch it, then if that doesn't work, kick it.

MHL just uses one of your phone's microUSB port pins to send video. The cable plugs into the microUSB and then has a Y cable off it - HDMI on one end (for delivering video) and USB on the other (for power).

so i would need wifi? i'm trying to get rid of my internet so i guess the chromecast isn't what i need.

now i just gotta figure out which cord(s) i need. which is where i was confused, because in my short time googling last night when i read reviews for different ones each one had mixed results, and some people had to buy 5 pin to 11 pin adapters and shit

but word i'm home now so i can figure it out. you have let me down NC's.

next time respond with direct links to amazon on what i should purchase, so when i purchase the wrong thing i can blame someone else for my folly thx
