Hi All,
Please share your mhl tv out experience using LG Optimus 4X.
I am using S2/S3/htc oneX compatible mhl adaptor that runs with charger connected. I am also using "Screen Standby" app to switch off display while using mhl.
At times it runs flawless but at times signal cuts off for few seconds frequently and hence making it useless specialy if playing games. I have no idea why it runs fine at times and why suddenly it starts giving no signal issue?
Anyone with any advice?

My mhl works beautifully with screen standby , phone gets hot but fine , streamed 720p video over 3g to mhl tv for 5 hours straight yesterday not problems at all apart from charging isn't quite enough (from 100% battery to 40% in that time )

Actually I still havent tested it for hrs of video playback..but what i have noticed is that it most times plays videos fine on stock video player(had played full hd video of 3mins recorded with its camera on my TV) but with games and device in motion suddenly starts giving no signal after every 5-10 seconds, and once this starts happening it even gives same problem with video playback
By the way what cable you using? I am using following mhl adaptor:

Found the item just searched it with item id number of the link. this wire seems better its much longer, mine is very short. and as much as i have noticed when ever i play any game which makes adapter to also move then mhl signal starts to skip so it must be loos connection issue.
So it plays fine until my adapter is moved.
below is the item link which you thought is broken

ha ha..
anyway try searching with mhl instead of hdmi and s2/s3/htc oneX works fine with our lg optimus 4x. I am using it and its fine until i use it as a controller for NFS MW then signal starta to loos may coz of loos connection when in motion...
last night i was playing "Nightmares" with my bluetooth mouse, device heats up but works fine.

What setting are you using on screen standby?
I'm on the V20a rooted JB rom and is wont turn the screen off while on MHL.
The closest I get is if I slide manual brightness to zero and my phone locks and goes to sleep.
HI omnicraft! I initially had problems , it was a while back but I seem to remmeber having to set it manually and then my phone froze until i locked/unlocked it. I uninstalled and re-installed (not sure it makes a difference) , and my current setting are as follows
Zero Brightness [x]
Persistent blank frame [x]
And am using One Two Dim mode with
Survive Screen Lock [x]
and a atimer of 15 seconds.
I have mine enabled on HDMI auto-detection. WHich means when you plug y our MHL cable in it will automatically start, and you can disable it from the notifications bar.
Hope thisr helps !!

Hi everyone
I've started to notice videos freezing or heavily stuttering on high quality
I have tested this on both WiFi and 3G with excellent signal for both.
Low quality works perfect however
Any ideas what can be causing this?

Once I flashed CM7, videos on youtube stop half way through and I get the error "Touch to retry". Sometimes it loses connection with the router. I know for sure that it isn't an issue with the router since I'm close to it. Any solution?
Possibly still could be the router
Do you have any problems on other devices?

My LG optimus 2x seem to have a problem at capturing screenshot of certain games... like Draw Something and Jewels Star. Used to be able to take them normally but all i get now is Black Screen with ads (if the game had ads) and sometime with status bar. This happen like a month ago.
Im using the stock rom Andriod 2.3.4 LGP990-V20l
im using the Home+Power button to take screenshot...
anyone got any idea to help me? thanks!
How about using an ad blocker?
Tried taking screenshots of jewels star on flight mode.. no ads displayed but screenshot are all black...

My phone does the same thing. I think you need to use a third party screenshot app.
You could try this tool.(Screenshot ER) from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17212860 . This may work!
Thanks but my phone is not rooted =[... USB port spoil cant even detect my phone on comp..

Hi, anyone experiencing video playback occasional stuttering? I did a factory reset and its still the same :/
Sent from my LG-P880 using Tapatalk 2
Nobody having the same problem guys? It's definitely not because of my Internet connection since its really fast.
What I'm afraid of is that there's a problem with the processor or graphics chip. I've tried playing HD videos from my micro sd card and all is smooth.
Any inputs? I only have 7 days to bring this back to the shop to swap for another set and it's day 3 already :/

I think if you play HD videos from your card and this is working good that there.is no problem with your processor.or.grapics.
Have you played a heavy game?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
Don't know if this helps you at all, probably not, but I've been having alot of stuttering on youtube on my pc for the last couple of days.
Can't watch any video unless it's fully loaded, which is slow atm, and even then it stutters a bit. Might be a problem on their side.
Hello
I have exactly samme problem.
I am getting used to it even though it is annoying.
Best regards

When I let my phone charge over night, once it reaches 100% it starts to go up and down in percentage. This started happening after root and some app freezes/ disable
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
It might be helpful to name the "some" apps you froze (the "disabled" should not matter). Apart from that: At the second half of your screenshot, the device was permanently connected to power? So it goes down as far as 94% while connected?
Yes that's when I left it on the charger throughout the night. And when you see the slight decrease near the 50% range is when I got a text.
Here are the apps I froze:

I have the same problem using jellybeer and iodak kernel v7 (but also had this problem using optimus prime)
Percentage drop is inconsistent, 92-93-96-98 %, depends on the days
Battery stat reference points are created on power unplug so it's hard to know what's draining battery...while on power, it's not easy to troubleshoot
I'm glad I'm not the only one.
So have you tried to do anything ?

At least nothing special about the frozen/quarantined apps. It's about the same stuff I froze (except for "Smart Log Service", "SystemBackupService", and "Talkback"). What ROMs you are on? Maybe that might shed some light (I'm on stock 4.0.3, v10h, and do not have that issue).
I'm currently on stock everything
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
Well, "stock everything" is not detailed enough. There have been several "v10" versions (with Android 4.0.x), and now there are also "v20" versions (Jelly Bean). You need to be a little more precise
Looking for any help at all. I recently purchased a charging port for my note 1 since doing that any kind of audio cuts off after a couple of seconds playing ( YouTube, videos,songs) but if I use my head phones it works perfectly. I reseated the charging port it doesn't improve any idea what could be causing that. I have the same ROM on another note and I not getting that problem
