I have a bone stock Note Pro 12.2, no 4G, just WiFi version. Purchased from Best Buy (shouldn't be installing anything Carrier-specific when it's just WiFi, right?) No rooting of any kind. No Launchers or GUI modifications either. I have the same issue.
The TV shows up as a device to connect to, I am able to approve the connection/device on the TV end, and it starts to load the screen, but then the error message comes up on the Tablet that it can't connect because of the "hardware issue".
Trying to utilize this at work on our new Samsung TV in our Conference Room. I suppose I could just get one of the adapters, but it sounds like there are issues with those, too.
Alright, here is the Fix for this. Please spread the word if this works for you. Because it worked for me. I didn't discover this solution so I can't take credit for this. Here it goes:
1. On your Note Pro find All Share Cast from Samsung and UnInstall all the updates. Then click Force Close, all of this should be done in Application Manager.
2. Restart your Note Pro (Very Important)
3. Using two fingers pull down the main screen from top down to unveil the controls menu. Touch Screen Sharing while the Miracast or other screen sharing service (Wifi Direct etc) is activated on Your TV.
4. Let it auto find it and auto connect..........Viola!
Don't think MHL is much of a standard to the guys that make them...
