Hello,

I bought a mini (not so mini) projector. So far, everything is going well. The thing is I want to buy an HDMI to phone cable. However, I noticed that my phone and my partner’s phone are not MHL compatible.
Do you have any idea how to connect the phones with a cable??
Knowing that the projector is not equipped with WiFi or Bluetooth.
I thought about a WiFi dongle or Chromecast, but my home WiFi is terrible.
The goal of this "cable" is to stream Netflix or Amazon from the phone and watch it on the projector.
If you have any ideas, I’m all ears!!

Thank you.

Hello,
There is this one at Fnac, for example:

Thank you for your response.

If I understood the description of these items correctly,
for our phones that are not MHL compatible, these products will not work.

Whether it is the MHL cable or the MHL/HDMI adapter, the phone needs to have MHL.
For using the cable, both the television and the phone must initially be equipped with MHL. However, the adapter is only meant to address the lack of MHL on the TV but not on the phone.

Did I understand correctly? I had already purchased the adapter, but it did not work because the phones are not HML compatible.
Hence, the exposure of my problem on the site.

Hello,
Check out this video to see if your phone, whose brand we don't know, is compatible (towards the end):
