I apologize if this topic should be in a certain forum but I'm new to the forums.

I bought a Galaxy S6 and wanted to know if it's true it can no longer do the MHL cable connection for TV / screens? I wanted to buy a cable to connect it to my Honda Civic 2014 since mine has a touch screen in it.

Also, is there a way to disable the Mirror Link feature every time I plug my phone to the car? I can't even get the main screen to show up while I all I want it to do is just charge my phone while I browse on it.

Is there a way to attach an image and text together while texting instead of it being separate? It's really becoming annoying to me.
 
Unfortunately, that is correct: The S6 does not support MHL/HDMI output, only wireless Screen Mirroring.
Is my Galaxy S6 Series device MHL compatible for use with an HDMI adapter?

Now, even if it did, the touchscreen wouldn't do much as MHL output is just that: output. That means that even if the screen you're using is a touch one, it wouldn't be able to 'talk back' to the phone to register said input. There are, however, Wireless receivers now that aren't that expensive. They're basically a box that you plug into your HDMI port and acts as a Miracast receiver for the Screen Mirroring feature of your phone and that can work via WiFi Direct, so you don't need actual WiFi for it to work. It's definitely more expensive and elaborate than a single cable, but if you REALLY need it, then that's one solution.

As for the Mirror Link, there should be a switch under MORE CONNECTIONS in the phone's settings.

About the messaging, I think that depends on the app you're using and whether you attach the image directly from the app's composing window or if you share the image from, say, the Gallery app. I use Google's Messenger and I can always include text with any pictures I'm sending. It's just not inline, if that's what you want... the text and picture are in a single message, but the text and the picture are 'separate'.
