HDMI Issue?

When I plug my Bionic into my Toshiba flatscreen via HDMI cable and select mirror mode, all sound coming through to the TV stutters and skips. I actually returned my first Bionic because of this, but my second one does the exact same thing. However, my roommate's Droid X2 mirrors perfectly... Is it possible the Bionic requires a higher speed HDMI cable than the X2? I have one of those ~$0.75 micro HDMI cables from Amazon.

How to make Atrix HD accept Generic USB cable.

Get some of the Geneic USB cable from Ebay.. 6 out 2 Atrix HD don't accept Generic USB cables. They can not charge. When connected to PC, it keep detect phone on and off. Can not get stable connection. But another 2 back Atrix HD detected fine. Most of White Atrix HD don't work well. I also tried to connect to any phone, like older model Motorola Triumph, Motorola flip phone and My LG phone work find. Atrix HD seems picky on USB cable. Anyone having same problem?? Feel free to post or comment.

I would bet your problem is with the cheap cables and not your devices. I have 3 devices and randomly interchange all of them with a variety of name brand and generic cables and haven't had any trouble.
The atrix really only like a factory cables and chargers. Especially if it dies.

Read the above post....
I've used 5 different cables with my AHD ever -- OEM Moto Bravo, OEM Moto Defy, OEM Moto AHD, Samsung ???, and HP ???. Samsung only worked on wall charger/car charger, HP only on PC. My Bravo cable charges and transmits data faster so I use it normally with my AHD and use the AHD cable with my Defy. My OEM Bravo cable is the best USB cable I've ever had. If you ever get the chance to get an old school Moto OEM cable, get it, you won't regret it.
I'd like to add that our OEM AHD cables have a tendency to short. My Dad's shorted out a few weeks ago. What would happen is it would bootloop then instant it was plugged into the wall charger. I gave him my Defy cable (didn't want to....) and now its working just fine.
This is all anecdotal evidence, but I've seen the ame anecdotal evidence in every Motorola Forum. Some of us get lucky with generics, most of us don't.
I agree, OEM cables are much better. I can use cheap cables with the OEM charger plug, but it makes the touch screen not work correctly...it will select things I didn't touch and makes almost impossible to use. Just go with OEM.
I have never had a problem with any of the USB cables I used with my AHD. These include a cable from my HTC, Samsung S2, LG P930, and a Samsung Galaxy S.
OEM cable from samsung, HTC and even with no name cable from old flip phone work. It can not work with Generic white cable got from Ebay come with Iphone Adapter one. It's just a hardware cable, how can a software tell the different wires inside the Generic cable???
Why this generic cable work fine on my Motorola Triumph and LG phone?? It seems like Atrix HD has some software to detect None OEM cable like Iphone do.

Verizon Moto Mod Case Review

Here's my review of the Verizon case over in the Moto Z Force forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z-force/accessories/verizon-moto-mod-case-review-t3480948
I didn't know that in order to turbo charge work perfectly the cable should be usb-c to usb-c. I bought recently an extra turbo charger for the Moto Z Play, but it must be for the Moto Maxx because it's a travel charger, with a spot to plug a usb 2.0 or 3.0 cable, not a usb-c, and when I plugged the phone, it wouldn't charge the Moto Z Play in turbo mode (and I think it never will) =(
I'll look further into it and see which chargers fit the Moto Z Play for the proper turbo chage.
By the way, it's amazing to know there's a turbo charge for cars, I thought Turbo charging worked only for wall adapters.
