My battery is rapidly losing power when the phone is connected to MHL. Force fast charge enabled. It can also power off during playing games and stuff.

Sometimes when u playing games without mhl jest with charger connected its also losing power. its just because games need so much power i think..

BTW which ROM are you on? Screen is not reverted?

Is battery drain big even when not playing games? I want to buy MHL adapter but I'm not sure I want to spend 30$ on something that is useless. Of course i asking about externaly powered (with charger) MHL adapter.

Serbia. MHL adapter is 20-25$ + 6-8$ HDMI cable it comes about 30$. I can buy it on ebay, but with taxes that would cost only 5-6$ cheaper and I would have to wait at least 2-3 weeks for delivery. So I think it's easier this way.

But my question remains: Does MHL have huge battery drain when watching movie or pictures. I don't play games so it's not an issue where.

When the phone is connected at mhl, battery falls with 30-40% for a move time. Otherwise the real problem is after disconnecting with mhl. Then battery lose 60% in less 1 hour, until phone is turn off, and when i touched it is very hot. But when i restart the phone after use mhl there is not such problem. Im with stock rooted rom, cos CM dosnt support good mhl second screen, even on CM11. :cyclops:
