Hello guys I'd like to share my experience, I've sold my xperia Z but left MHL adapter.
I've just bought my second Huawei P7 and without any expectation I connected it via HDMI MHL to my HD Toshiba TV and that's it, works straight away, also you need micro usb charger to plug in to mhl adapter and HDMI-HDMI cable to make it works (I used my wife's pink portable charger )
My Huawei P7 is running official kitkat B123 Emotion UI 2.3, no root, no mods at all.
MHL bought from PCWorld store UK £13.99 including 11-pin and 5-pin connector

You can stream through DLNA (P7 and all new phones support it ... evem my old Huawei G700 supports it).
No need to hurry an buy a MHL adapter
Yes, you right but my TV doesn't support DLNA, and wired connection has usually no delays too.
Do you know which version of mhl is supported??
I have a 1.0 mhl cable and it works!

Thanks for also sharing your experiences. What kind of mhl-adapter do you have? Does it have an extern energy supply?
It is a cable with 2 wires: one of them connects to the phone and the other one to an USB power supply (my TV)

i was watching a review of an mhl cable on youtube and the guy said that the note2 uses a different type of cable (11 pins?), is this just for the mhl cable or does it apply to OTG and chargers aswell? because since i have seen the video i am only using my note 2 carger, cant even order from ebay because they will just ship the normal one..please can some one confirm this to me?
It's just the MHL, normal USB OTG cables/hubs works just fine.

i think the MHL should work not the regular HDMI cable. make sure you plug in the power adapter to the cable, before you plug it in to your phone.
So, I'm about to leave for a holiday for a couple of weeks, and a MHL adapter for my Z2 tablet would be nice. I see Sony has a cable, but that's like 38$ in the local story, and I can find MHL 3.0 adapter for 4-5$ on Ebay. Would any MHL 3.0 adapter work, or does it have to be the Sony cable? I see many of the brands on Ebay mention Samsung, any reason why this would not work?
If you find one that works, can you let us know either way? I am also interested in this!
I bought one from the local accessories store - works out of the box on my Z2 tab. Just ensure that it has USB power
I got a Belkin hml adapter with input for power, worked on my Philips TV atleast

It'll be MHL 1.0 most probably, not 3.0 and probably not even 2.0.
the cheap ones work...
See my response on another thread

but this one worked for me for a GBP 'fiver'

Good morning, mhl Clable know of any, other than the original sony functioning ??
Thank you
Yeah I would like to know this as well ? I'm struggling to find MHL cables that are announced as 3.0 ones. Most of the time, they don't specify anything.
Any way to be sure to get a compatible 3.0 cable ?
I bought a cheap one on ebay

cost me a fiver (GBP) and works with my Z1 Compact and my Z2 Tablet.
plugs into my older Panasonic (non-smart) HD TV.
You have to power it with micro-usb, tho'

Hi has anyone.
seen such adapter on sale? seems like only Mhl version 1 is to be found
I was wondering the same, so yesterday I've send Sony an e-mail. As soon as I have an answer I'll post it here.
I have the rocketfish RF-G1171 MHL Adapter and it works really well for me. I can play games on HD on my TV
I got a reply from Sony Mobile.
Sony has this MHL cable which should work with the Tablet Z3 compact: DLC-MC30 I paid 26 euros for it... I don't have it yet but I'll come back to confirm if it really works.
edit:
It does not work on my Samsung tv. I guess because a normal HDMI port does not give power to the phone. Too bad it doesn't work
