Yes the charger is plugged in for it works for about five minutes. I purchased the MHL Accell.
Uh oh that's not good. I bought the same one off of amazon. Haven't tried mine out yet. Going back home Friday to bring more stuff down to school, including the tv.
Although the only reason to use the tv is for the phone so i can browse online and stuff on a large screen. Didn't even set up cable or internet in my apt because I do everything on my phone.
The reviewer I was commenting back and forth with on amazon who also has a 3d said his worked just fine. I'm interested what the problem is for yours and if it'll happen to mine as well. Hmmm..
After a couple minutes it just completely stops working? Or no video with sound? Or just video? Or just goes crazy and getting lines and color disfiguration? Is the hdmi cable you're using is okay? Do you have your phone setting to turn off the screen after so many minutes? Are you using any sort of extension cables? Just asking

Bad connection somewhere... Something with the power/charger.. not sure what else I can think of that would cause it to not work. Otherwise you just got a defected unit.
