Everything is connected properly. No notice of an HDMI cable to the phone. It is not rooted.
My phone is Milestone XT720, Android 2.1.
Try going to your gallery viewer and then to menu and you should have a button to display on tv. There might be some options in market to display all the time, but I really have no idea.

Try a different hdmi port on the tv. If that doesnt work, try a different tv. If that doesnt work, it could be a bad cable.
The gallery works, thanks, but I want to watch movies with RockPlayer.
try real hdmi
not sure if it works on milestone but its worth a shot

EDIT:never mind seems to be droid x only
Rock Player doesnt output to hdmi.
Real HDMI not install for me, I'll wait until update 2.2 and will try then. Thank you.
Moved to Milestone Forum, as it has nothing to do with Android Programming

You can get your homescreen to
Appear on Tv by the following trick
Launch Gallery apps (not media gallery)
Play a short hd video (recorded with your xt720)
Select display on tv
Wait for video to finish
This will display the gallery.
Press back button
Your homescreen will be displayed on tv
The only limitation is that your xt720 lcd screen will be stuck in video control mode and your have to guess where to touch the screen!

Thanks, but...
Launch Gallery apps (not media gallery)
Play a short hd video (recorded with your xt720)
Select display on tv
Wait for video to finish
Display gallery show for a second and leave a TV screen immediately. Not stuck ... I tried several times. : (
Once i select DISPLAY ON TV show comes to incoming calls, whether to receive or NO, YES his election, whether this prolem?
I usually select YES for incoming call.Are you definitely using the Gallery app as it does not work in Media Gallery app?
Maybe try a different video, that sometimes help.
Also what software version are you on. I am using a uk xt720 with s/w
Ver str_u2_01_1e.0

Yes, I tried both, same result. : (
Version is the same - str_u2_01_1e.0
I just try few minutes ago. Needed few attempts to get this trick working. Not very reliable!!!
Best to have gallery in landscape mode and play at least 10 seconds of 720p video.
Also I checked rock player app and unfortunately it does not play full screen. Only youtube and default player seem to play full screen.otherwise you get only the 854x480 resolution which is only a fraction of your tv screen.

Alright, thank you. After all, the pictures of the screen didn't stuck, after the video the tv just turn off. I will wait for update 2.2
Thanks again
I think the video player application has to support "Display on Tv" to get full screen. Hopefully there will be an app for that in the future

Hey guys I was just wondering if it were possible to modify
the YouTube app or even develop a new one that can gain full access to the website (no more unavailable on mobile devices ) and the ability to turn off the screen while listening to normal music videos (no music stopping ).
I find it annoying to have the screen on while just listening to a normal song which mainly display still pictures

Hi,
does anyone succeeded to install the Viera remote app on his optimus 2x ?
The market says may LG optimus 2x does not support this application.
However the app is available to phone since 2.2.
I'm based on Topogiggi rom
Anyone could help ?
thanks
no one got a panasonic tv here ?
I did a quick search for "viera remote" in market 2 as the market 3 seems to throw up MANY apps as NOT compatible for my O2X. I didn't find it. What do you actually search for and I'll try it in Market 2.
I have Panasonic TV
I´ve already instaled this app, it woeks fine, but it didn´t find any device. I have CM7 nightlies.
stevvie I don't know what you call market 2 or 3 but the apps i'm looking for is called 'Viera remote'
It looks like a great app to remotly control your panasonic viera tv.
The app is showing on android web market but tells me it is not compatible with my optimus.
I dont understand why because i'm on 2.3.4 (topogigi rom) and the app should be available.
As for you CZVAGY, how did you install the app ? it is the official panasonic app ?
If you guys could get me an apk( it is a free app) or explain me how i could install it , it would be great !
thanks
peuhhh
I´ve instaled it from Android market and yes, this is orginal app from Panasonic. I think, the problem is in your Topogigi, because I use CM7.
If you want *.apk, send me PM and I´ll send you the file.
Unfortunately (for me), my Panasonic TV doesnt support Viera link via LAN, so this app isn´t useful for me. Maybe in the future when I´ll buy a new TV...
Ive had this phone 5 days. Updated to stock Gingerbread.
Im trying to use the LG Smartshare app to stream to a Samsung tv. Using the app you decide where your video is coming "from" and where it is streaming "to". But the phone doesnt list itself as a source to stream the videos "from". Its like the app cant see the phone itself. Has anybody any ideas.
I realise there are other DLNA apps like Skifta (this does see the phone and works fine!) but I was hoping to use LG's own app.
Many thanks in advance.
I have tried practically every KFHD 7 rom available, they start off with great YouTube playback then I start getting Touch to Retry becuase the video has problems loading. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Apps Installed that could cause the error:
AD Blocker
VLC
I would guess adblocker, I use adblock plus, it got removed from the Google store but it's still kept up to date if you get it from their site. Seem's like anytime I use host file blocking it blocks YouTube from working. Oh and yay vlc, I use that too, love that video player.
