How can I best utilize the HDMI Mirror functionality on the phone? I have it working on a Sprint Evo using FullHDMI, but this app doesn't appear to like the Revolution?
Anyone else have it working? If so, how did you get there?
Thanks,
-Rob

I was just about to ask something similar.. I have tried two different brand mini hdmi cables and i can get nothing to show on my TV. I have tried using it for netflix, videos from the gallery, etc with no success. I have tried all three resolution options with no success... has anyone gotten it to work with the built in HDMI options the revolution has?

What did u view on your tv netflix, gallery stuff, and did u do anything different other than just enable the hdmi port plug and go?

The phone only supports hdcp so some older TVs may not work

I watched netflix, played angry birds, and youtube videos. Just turned it on in settings, and plugged it in. I do have a newer sony lcd though.

i get a picture but no sound. i should have sound right?
Thanks!
Duh. I am such an idiot. I didn't look there. I found it, and it worked PERFECTLY on the HDMI input of my HP All-in-one PC, and on my 65" Sharp TV. Full audio and everything using a cheap cable from Amazon.
Thanks to the original responder for the hint on where to find it, much appreciated. To those who say RTFM, you can suck it because there isn't a mention of that to be found in the guide which came with it.

I had no sound at first. Had to change a setting on the TV to tell it to get sound through the HDMI. Works perfect now. Check settings on your TV.

I've gone through settings, enabled HDMI and tried two different TV's (both less than a year old, one is Vizio, the other is Samsung) and neither of them are working. Any Ideas?

At this point, your phone could have a bad micro HDMI port. I'd have it replaced with a new one. But if you feel like its not your phone then take your phone and your HDMI cable to best buy (or any store that sells Televisions) and ask a representitive that you want to test it out before you buy it (the TV ofcourse).
Most reps will let you hook in your HDMI device without causing much fuss.
If your phone works then its your TV.
If it doesn't then you can get another HDMI cable to test out (or find someone who has a micro HDMI phone and test their phone).
If it works on the second cable then problem solved.
If it worked on someone elses device then your phone has hardware issues.

I would need to revert back to stock or they would just write it off as a complication from rooting it....weighing my options...I'll update my findings.

Rooting your phone voids your warranty, so I'm pretty sure Verizon will check for that when they receive your old phone. They will probably charge you the retail price for the replacement phone they sent you.
Sorry if this has already been asked but does the Verizon tab support TV out? And if yes does anyone know if it will work with confidence and paranoia?

It may be read only, but its a place to store your media to use, and keep your internal memory for other stuff!
This app isn't mine, and I did not make t or have any input in development, I simpliky just found n Google play, just thought I'd say

Looks interesting, but IMO cloud storage is more useful and easier.

And IMO offline storage is more useful, especially on a Wifi-only device, but also for anyone else with a limited data plan on their phone or data connection capable tablet. Also, pretty sure a $9 16GB USB stick is more cost effective than pretty much any 16GB cloud storage option.

There is actually a thread over in the Themes and Apps section that the developer made. He is really open to input. I like the app, as I don't have to root to use a flash drive with videos saved on it.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Well, isn't that a kick in the teeth, because I just rooted last night simply to use USB OTG. At first I kind of felt "meh" over the read only factor, but then I got to thinking, am I really going to need to transfer from tablet to external media? I'd much rather transfer from external media to tablet, do what I need to do with watching whatever content I may have, then simply delete it off the tablet... no reason to transfer it back when it's the same darn file. Some people may have uses for having a 2 way setup, but I'm sure this will fit the bill for a lot of people. I do find it a considerable bummer that ext* file systems aren't supported, but meh.
Thank you thank you thank you!

How is $9 for $16GB more cost effective than the almost 50GB's I have online for free?

Nice find! I travel with my Nexus and having the videos accessible from a USB drive on the airplane is great. Wifi on a plane is good for Facebook and email,nothing else.

I grabbed this app. I am new to Android so seeing how people can just make apps to actually add more hardware features is amazing to me.

It will return soon, the dev is just flooded with emails and wanted to put a stop to new users until he gets caught up.
can we directly read data in the usb? for example pdf files and media files?

i dont understand the bickering of cloud data. it is nice but i have 20 hours of plane flights coming up. cloud data will not be a very good solution for me compared to plugging a hard drive into my tablet.
Being a non-root user, this is great news for me. I always used splashtop to watch my videos directly from my computer, though it gave me no trouble, I would much rather have the movie with me.
Can't wait till the developer puts it back up.
What is the name of the app? Can anyone share the APK?
Downloaded Nexus Media Importer yesterday. It works as needed on my GNex, Nexus 7 and Xoom. No root necessary. Amazing! I'd pay for this app in a heartbeat! Sorry have no place to upload it.
Looks like the developer is now charging for it:

Hey guys, according to this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2050380, given the right kernel and hardware setup, you can have a USB hub, mouse, keyboard, and a memory stick all powered off a charger that is also powering the Nexus tablet.
If this is true, then I am going to start working on a TRUE dock, one that would turn the Nexus 7 into a sort of PC.
See the attached image for a rough outline of how things would be setup.
For the body of the dock, I will 3d print it. I'm pretty good at 3d printing, my previous project (Andraxis, a cellphone mount for PS3 controllers) was probably much more difficult than this would be. Like that project, this will be open development where anybody can suggest changes, and eventually buy their own.
So here is what I need from you guys: Suggestions for USB hubs. I need something that is so readily available anybody could buy it, cheap enough they won't mind paying for it on top of what will likely end up being $40+ worth of a 3d printed case and USB cables, and of course, super small.
Let's make this happen guys!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
this is great. I might model my own dock, and create a prototype with a 3D printer.
Just use Bluetooth mouse and keyboard? I assume you can use them both at the same time?

Interesting, good luck with the project.

This looks interesting, I will be following this
This kernel might be what you need for your build,be sure to give props to the dev if it is.

That's likely the kernel I was thinking of, thanks!
Does anybody have suggestions for USB hubs?

Can someone help me i've been trying to figure out how to get lapdock on my atrix hd... Is there a way to do it... Please help
And im still running ics ...
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
plug it in
if it doesnt work, flip the connectors, there are dozens of guides on how to do that, its about 5 minutes
I know i have to plug it in... Its there like webtop for Atrix HD ..it dont suppose to support...so i want to know if theres a way
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
mirror mode fullscreen is the best you can do.
I have been browsing lapdocks for sale and it seems there are several versions.
Which is the model that requires flipping the plugs? Is it the Lapdock 100 with the 10 inch screen?
Also, there seems to be a lapdock made for Bionic, with 11.6 inch screen- can this on be hacked as well?
Finally, the lapdock 500 with the flex cable connector- can this work with AHD? I cant seem to find a good close up pic of the connector itself...
Any advice appreciated.
