I bought it from ebay... The only way to get audio is through 3.5 headphones or speakers

Try with a different (newer) HDMI cable. All HDMI cables are not the same and just because it works with some DVD player does not mean it will work with the MHL box. I have seen cases where this is caused by the cable.
Days of free media are almost over as the biggies look for more revenue streaming from your wallet... ...Don't believe me? Take a look at all the flagship models now being sold WITHOUT microSD card slots.

I agree with this. When I use a 3rd party app like BS Lite everything is choppy. When I use the stock app everything works fine.

Anyone figured it out yet? I just bought a Blackmagic Intensity Pro card to make gameplay/review vids of android games, but I dont get any audio. The capture software gives me 16 audio channels I can record from, but even by turning on all 16 I dont get any audio.

There's a slight chance there might be something wrong with the card or the equipment I use, but i highly doubt that.

Configuration: Samsung Galaxy Nexus -> Samsung HDTV Adapter -> A to A HDMI Cable -> Blackmagic Intensity Pro -> (Capture Software: Blackmagic Media Express)

I do use my Samsung Galaxy Nexus with the official Samsung HDMI/MHL - adapter.

Any suggestions?

None of you guys asking about sound on HDMI have said what device you are connecting to. I get perfect audio on my Samsung HDTV from the generic MHL adapter on the Flyer via HDMI cable. Not every TV or device is capable of receiving audio over HDMI. That's why they added the extra 3.5 analog audio jack as an option.

The Blackmagic Intensity Pro should work fine with either HDMI audio or analog audio. have you checked it with a known good HDMI source such as a DVD player or Cable box?

I am returning my MHL and getting a replacement which they will test before sending to me. Hopefully it is the cable and not my phone.
