I am loving ICS and all the tasty ROMs that are out there, but despite quite a bit of searching i have been unable to find a working way to get webtop on ICS with just my HDMI cable. Has anyone found a hack for this? Thanks in advance for any pointers!
Webtop development has been stopped/dropped lapdock or not.
Dropped when?
I had heard something to that affect also. I was hoping that that was just temporary and that that was just for the newer motorola phones for now.Or at least that was what i thought i had read. I know there was a lot of forum talk about a half year ago about webtop when bionic owners still had gingerbread, and i even saw a few people claiming to have webtop on the ICS leak before it was officially released. I never gave it a go though, one i didnt want the leak, two i was hoping to utilize webtop once ICS came out....Does anyone have more information?
Eclipse rom 1.2 when you plug in hdmi it give you the option of screen mirror or webtop it works great never had a problem hope this helps

I will give this a try asap! Thanks for the tip, i had not tried the hdmi with eclipse or upgraded eclipse to 1.2 yet. Thanks
Okay...i updated eclipse to 1.2 and plugged in HDMI...nothing. Don't know what i'm missing. Appreciate any ideas/help
Did anything happen at all? No mirror or options?

I activate Webtop on stock ICS all the time after only plugging in HDMI. 6.7.246 has no issues with this.

I installed Webtop without lapdoc (from one of the threads I found in here a few days ago) into my Icarus ROM and it works fine. I think I had to turn the TV on before I plugged in the HDMI cable. I can't check that right now, but I think that was needed.
Can you please give the link of the "Webtop without lapdoc"? R u on Icarus ROM by safestrap from a stock 6.7.246, or a single Icarus ROM?
Have you ever tried if the "Webtop without lapdoc" works on stock 6.7.246?
Many thanks!

I was wondering if any one has tried modifying the webtop portal and dock files to allow it to show on screen when HDMI is connected, like the Atrix and Bionic? I didn't see anything online about it, but I think this would be cool if someone was working on it.
Have you tried NebTop?
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...op-universal-hdmi-webtop-hack-working-d4.html
Apparently, I didn't do enough research, because that's the exact thing I was talking about. Thanks
This is exactly what I was looking for. Paid the $4.12 to support the developer. It was a much better deal as opposed to going out to buying the dock for $50 or the docking station for $100.

And isn't needed in ICS as just plugging in an HDMI cable will bring up Webtop 3.0.

I had resolution issues, but a phone reset got it to work again.... Works pretty good now. The Dev does actually answer emails too which is nice.
I have a travel adapter that enables webtop yet I have no control of the cursor... I'm on stock no root... first time it launched touch screen was a touch pad with L and R buttons for clicking... now I can't get it to launch with the touch pad feature.... any ideas I've force reboot and FR... can't get safe mode to enable...

I'm considering upgrading from the OG Atrix to the Atrix HD but I need to have a working lapdock for work. I use citrix to access my work computer and am worried about the up-scaling issues. (or if the dock will be recognized) I saw that the Atrix HD worked with ICS but there was some conflicting posts about the official JB update. Any information would be great. Thanks.

Mine did not work with JB, but does with ICS.
Nothing but a blank screen on JB, so I stuck with ICS.

Just tried it, same thing as the ahd rom... JB doesnt stretch the picture properly. Different in CM10, it just wont turn landscape whatever you do, even if you force it, it will show landscape in portrait mode.
You guys wont believe what I found... its actually an android-wide issue, Google has royally f***ed up all HDMI screen detection and stretching other than 720p and 1080p in JB, I'm not that smart to say if its a configuration or kernel issue though.

Question - there is the Mexican retail stock ROM on the development forum that is 4.1.2, is there a possiblity that it will work properly? Is it worth $25 to find out? I only ask because there is a garage sale page out on Facebook that my wife subscribes to and someone is getting rid of a mint condition unit.
No it doesn't work.
But yes, you can go back to 4.0 and it will work there.
Should we assume moto isn't going to fix the issue?
Maybe in their next phone if it has hdmi out, but even thats a stretch.

i have a lapdock for the ATRIX 4G modded to work with ATRIX 2, after i got the Atrix HD it still works with it... with Stock 4.1 BUT the celphone screen stays ON it doesnt work like with the old ATRIX 2 where i could set it to show screen in the laptdock only saving the phone from overheating... Anyone knows a way to make the Phone to poweroff screen while leaving lapdock on?, The other issue i have is with the resolution it seems the default table mode in the ATT 4.1.x is with a resolution smaller than 720p and it isnt filling my screen well.

1, You need to go back to android 4.0 for the screen to not stretch.
2, Delete the updater apk so it doesn't nag you go back.
3, Screen standby app on xda is free.

I was searching the updater.apk path to rename it and i found this:
cbrunner said:
Yes, you're right. That was dumb on my part.
My phone just did this again. The only thing I changed in this situation was the renaming of Updater.apk. So, either my device is defective or renaming Updater.apk somehow kills the phone eventually, but not immediately after you rename it. Just FYI in case anyone else thought about doing this.

Now im kind of scared to remove it i know that phone was HTC not Motorola but... And both UPDATE and APK seem to be the most famous words in this forum hehehe im getting lots of results with no real path.
I did it for a friend and he said the update nag didnt dissapear. Its not the updater apk the name is somthing else or maybe he just needed a restart. If you find out the exact name, write it here.
Is there any confirmation the lapdock 100 and lapdock 500 are working PERFECTLY FULL SCREEN with an atrix HD ? (1280x720 is ok, I can live without overscan)
not like the crappy 720x576 we get on the original Atrix 4G lapdock.

the answer is NO on Bell or AT&T 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 still low resolution with black bars on top and bottom.
I updated my ATT Atrix HD (on Bell) to 4.1.1 OTA.
found out the hard way we lost the HDMI mirroring to the lapdock screen.
it works fine mirroring to my LCD TV but not when plugged in the lapdock (even with just the hdmi port plugged in)
it goes in a kind of 1280 x 540 mode screwing up the screen.
Was ok on ICS, still fine on my 2 LCD tvs but not on the lapdock.
Its a problem with all JB androids... I'm selling mine now as theres no way to go back...
Still the RAZR HD can go back to ICS from JB but as of yet not the Atrix HD... makes me wonder if there is a way after all.
Wait so I can not use HDMI to my HDTV anymore?

it worked on 3 LCD TVs at home/cottage but the lapdock cannot deal with the hdmi signal JellyBean put out on the hdmi connector.
... or as HDMI ports are bi-directional, JellyBean detect the Motorola Lapdocks and mess with the output resolution on purpose (any other HDMI capable device will play nicely with a lapdock screen... as was the Atrix HD with ICS.)

I made a factory reset from the boot recovery menu, cleared the cache partition from the same menu... Still got the letter boxed screen on the lapdock.
I noticed that on the YouTube app, it now has a screen icon at the top of the video window for HDMI output but, I dunno bout videos on the device or SD card.

I asked for USB mass storage mode like on ICS and a way to make the HDMI mirroring resolution ok on a lapdock... or a way to downgrade to ICS...
Motorola Support said:
Thanks for reaching out to Motorola. I have reviewed your e-mail, and I am ready to help. I apologize for the delay and any inconveniences you're experiencing. The ATRIX HD does not support Linux computer, and Webtop or Lapdock. If you connect the phone to a lapdock it will display like Mirror mode. Unfortunately, we're unable to resolve the issue with the screen resolution when connect ATRIX phone via HDMI , this may be fixed in an software update release in the future.

All of us with Lapdocks have been looking into that for a while now. There's some tricks that can be done with 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 to get the screen working (see the last few posts/pages under the lapdock topic under our Original Development for them), but nothing since 4.2+ has worked for any amount of time stable (best I've had with 4.2+ is about 3 mins with 4.4 Carbon a couple of weeks ago and nothing since).

Anyone check it out and see how it compares to Hashcode's CM10.1 build? I'm assuming it suffers from similar bugs such as no hwcomposer
Edit: I now see that Hashcode is actually an AOKP maintainer now, so chances are high that this is very similar to his CM10.1, save for the AOKP features
Waiting for more feedback before I check it out.
I've been running it for about a week. I'm really enjoying it. It's very fast, light on battery, and stable. As long as you use a third party app for camera/camcorder, everything works. I would definitely recommend trying this out.

Once the hw composer works I will try it again. Graphical tearing ruins all of it.

HDMI? I know webtop doesn't work properly on any non-Blur ROM, but can you at least do mirroring?
fantastic! Checking it out now.
Does this still have the bluetooth issues?

I just flashed this ROM and WOW is it clean. BEST JB build yet! I was using Icarus but this is way ahead of that. Full Google Now, lock screen widgets (still don't know how to add them yet ) but very clean AOKP build. I'm impressed.

Better than Icarus HD 1.7.x? Because I'm still on Icarus HD 1.5 and was looking to update but I might forego the entire process and just start new with AOKP.

Funny I don't have problems with either of those. Yes camera is a known issue with all JB Kexec roms. You need Camera FX or something of the like.
To previous poster yes I find this way ahead of Icarus HD in terms of JB speed and features. Only thing missing from Icarus is stock camera and if you like the dock apps and smart actions you don't have those stock have to get them yourself.

Try using logmein ignition and you will see that graphical tearing and lack of hardware video support sucks. Your video looks like its in Atari mode. Those things matter to me anyways. Icarus works best.

Anybody else having MMS issues? Was working fine in Build 4 but no longer works in Build 5... changing the CDMA subscription back and forth doesn't appear to work.
Also, does anyone know which CDMA subscription we're SUPPOSED to be on? It seems to work fine on both except with no MMS on either. Very strange...

stock for the rom seems to be the one with all, cdma, lte, gsm, etc. I have not had these issues at all on rev 5. Try "reinstalling" the rev 5 in bootstrap over the current one, that fixed an issue I had with data on the radio for a couple hours.
New build released!
I just installed MR1 build 6 and the stock camera works out of the box. Good start to a new ROM release!!
NOTE: You _NEED_ to install it in rom-slot2. It will tell you that after you start flashing, so when you're too late to cancel it.

Anyone know how to get Motorola Smart Actions to work on this ROM? Also the Stock Cardock app would be nice as well. Let me know if it's as simple as just putting it in system/apps and installing. Thanks!
If it doesn't work get Tasker. I know it's pay ware but it's only $2 down from $7. It beats the Crap out of the smart actions tool.

Currently, it lets you change the HardCoded DNS, and keep your exploitable bootloader so you can flash any future things that come along. Currently there us nothing except rooted images, but I know some people are working on themes, as well as someone working on getting a open source graphics driver going.
