Or a Chromecast, and then you can do all the rest with it too.

One of those red lead adapters on ebay. You need another mains>usb plug too.

Powered from the TV USB port (which provides power as the phone charges)

Maybe it's providing power, but not enough? Try an external charger.

The one I had was simply rubbish, it'd display a picture for a couple of seconds before crapping out. I sent it back in the end.

You just need another mains>USB phone charger as well.

Over and out.
