I am trying to watch videos from my phone to my TV. I did this with past phones. I purchased a Samsung adapter that adapts phone to HDMI so I could plug phone directly into hdmi port on tv.I Googled this and found a lot of info describing this as the way to do it, but it doesn't work. I then looked at apps, but can't find one that works as expected. Thanks in advance for any help.

Any reason why you haven't considered a Chromecast device?

I don't know what a chromecast device is.
Also, I've never had to buy another device to plug my phone into my TV. It usually just shows on the TV what my phone shows when I plug it in to TV.

There have been commercials for it. Chromecast - 2nd Generation - Google Store

I have tried smart view. It does not change anything.
We appreciate the helpful details, VONNOR34. Please tell us more, what is your TV's brand? Do you get an error when you connect your phone to the TV?

My TV is a Sanyo DP55441.
Nothing happens when I plug phone into HDMI port. It's like there is no output from the phone.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Thank you for all the details, VONNOR34. Once you plug your phone into the Television, do you make any changes to the S9 settings?
The S9 should be placed in Smart View. Here is a link to the steps: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-216812/
