    My apologies, one has to be precise where Samsung are concerned, their models in different markets seem to differ.

    Apparently, the US model, GT-P5113, has HDMI enabled at its outlet...but the European(??) model, which is apparently GT-P5110, does not have it...

    confirmed by Samsung :mad: [you should check which model you have, you never know!! did you buy in the US??]

    see this thread from Android Forums, which confirms this....

    http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-tab-2-10-1/739706-please-can-anyone-help.html

    and gives a solution of using the afore-mentioned all share dongle to achieve streaming media from your Tab to a TV with this dongle.....not satisfactory, IMO, but there you are....

    Pretty lousy stuff from this Company, IMO, who refuse to fix outstanding issues, like SDS, and reboots due to their clipboard coding, on their one-time flagship S3....

    my apologies for the earlier post, but I wasn't to know...;)

    they, Sammy, treat their customers with utter contempt.

    Here is a list from Samsung of the HDTV Adapter [HDMI] compatible devices:

    http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab-accessories/EPL-3PHPBEGSTA-compatible


    EDIT...just researching this, it is also disgusting how Samsung have mislead people with the GT-P5110, which simply does not have the hardware to achieve HDMI output, they didn't put it in, yet they send emails like this one, quote below:

    Link to post, and interesting discussion on this.....




    Such bare faced liars....and they charge through the nose for their devices....

    Just for example, I have a cheap Chinese tablet, bought last year, a Ployer Momo Bird, cost very little....

    but I can connect straight to a TV HDMI port, with a supplied mini-hdmi to HDMI cable, and stream full HD movies to my TV, no adapter needed.....also Netflix, and anything else media related....

    now Samsung could have done that, but they are too interested in Marketing and not interested in customers.

    also:
    *****IMPORTANT*******

    This adaptor will not work on the European Model of the Tab 2 10.1 [GT-P5110].

    It is specifically designed for the Samsung Tab 2 10.1 US model [GT-P5113]....

    so do not purchase this unless you have the US Model above. [GT-P5113]


    The European model does not have the required HDTV or HDMI hardware, so it will never work, no matter what you do.

    Samsung have admitted this, see my post below.

    ***************************************


    Buy this from Amazon, you need an adaptor, no direct HDMI from Sammy Tab 2 10.1, none at all from 7 inch....
