hi
bought a micro usb to hdmi adapter
but when I connect him to the hdmi from the tv its not displaying any image
do I need to do something in the settings?
 
Did you get the correct adapter? You need an MHL 3.0 (11 pin) adapter for TV output to work with the Note 4. Also, it has to be a 'powered' adapter, which means you'll have to plug an external power source to the adapter, then plug the adapter to your phone, then plug the HDMI cable to your TV.
 
Without knowing the model number of having manufacturer info from the first one I can't really tell, but the second link does say that it works with Note 4 and that it includes the 11-pin connector that's MHL 3.0 compatible so it should. But again, since I haven't used it personally or heard of the brand, I can't say for sure that it will.

Problem is that there are TWO common types of these cables. MHL 2.0 and MHL 3.0. The first Samsung phones that supported MHL used the first, but then they switched to the latter, and the newer is not compatible with the older as they changed the pinout.
