Hello,
anybody else got a problem with TV OUT ?
I cannot make it work. And when entering the Service/Test Mode, it won't work there either! Its setting is OFF.
In comManager its all greyed out, no matter if connected with a cable to a tv or not.
There is a reg setting about it and when I enable it there, it shows enabled, but it actually is NOT.
So I am wondering if this is perhaps MY hardware or if there is any 'secret' to it, to make it work.
Thanks!
Everybody's elses TV OUT working fine???
Hey what is this, no replies at all. Should I believe EVERYBODIES TV OUT is working fine?
Or nobody using that at all? I want to know if with all you out there, the TVout in connection manager is greyed out or not (with or without a plug).
Even in service/test mode my setting is OFF and cannot be changed.
Need to know if this is just mine and the hardware is perhaps broken. Thanks!
Mine works.
(I used it very rarely but it's good to know it there)
MS Direct Push not working either?!?!
Good to know at least somebody's works! If you go to connection manager, the TV screen is greyed out on mine, on yours its yellow?
And what about the square where you put the ckeckmark, its greyed on mine, on yours not?
Now, what is your software version?
Thanks

When the cable is not connected, the TV out checkbox in Connection Manager is greyed out. The moment I connect the cable to both phone and TV, a menu pops up and shows a picture and two aspect ratio options to choose from.
Are you sure it's not the cable or the input on the TV faulty? I mean it is clear for me the TV out option is available only after a connection between phone and a valid input of a working TV has been established. Dunno, try other tv sets?
My phone software is plain 6.5.3 generic UK. only mods are sd card fix and overclocking, so very little to do with the matter we are discussing.
Yeah, I tried different TVs. But since it won't even work in TestMenu, I figure it my hardware now.
You see, in testmenu, one does not even need to connect a TV because it will be displayed on the lcd. And no cable needed either.
What is your manufacture date? Its inside battery compartment on white sticker, like 09Wxx or 10Wxx.
Mine says 09W48

I'm too facing the same problem..
It identifies the cable as a headset.
Anything to do...?

Hi to all
I had recieved the dock and a good HDMI cable.
I tested in a Toshiba 37WL66Z, perfect video, but no sound, ( In the same tv I have connected my laptop and I have sound ), then I thought that it was the dock or the cable, so I tried this in a second tv I have Toshiba 32AV500P, two years newer that the first, sound ok in both HDMI inputs.( so cable and dock are OK ).
What is going on?, I had searched the net alot, but I have not found a solution, I have read that there are people having the same problem with me, concerning the dock.
Can I do something? is there are different protocolls, that the devices communicate each other in HDMI connections?
Can I made an upgrade or something else?
Thanks in advance
I think the compatibility is not a 100%. I had some troubles when I hooked my Tab. It's unbelievable that there is little to no information about the dock to find while searching on Google! (Troubleshooting)
Yes you are right no info, I had searched everywhere, the tab is a new model, perhaps in the future?, very stange though.
Perhaps the compability problem will be solved with a firmare upgrade?
I cannot found a link to ask Samsung Korea directly to check this matter, because a lot af us have the same issue.
If anyone knows a link to them?
I connected my dock, the tab makes a connected sound, but the tv doesn't recognize the dock, so no sound or video.

Ah. that's exactly the problem I had. This is the routine that usually resolves it.
1. Reboot Tab for a fresh start
2. Hook up the dock to power. (Apparently this is required)
3. Dock the tab.
4. Make sure it shows as "charging".
5. Plugin the HDMI cable. (make sure you don't move the dock too much! the connection is crappy and very easily loosened)
Thank you friend. I suspected I would need the power cable. I got one off ebay yesterday.
You have to add #6 to the steps: hold tongue out to the left side at a 30 degree angle. ;^)
Hi all, fortunately I have my motorola Atrix but I have a problem when playing videos by hdmi to TV, connect the phone and it started the implementation of video on TV but nothing comes out, it is as if not detected, know if I have to do something special on the phone to work this out??
Thanks and regards
Do you select the webtop or media setting once you plug it in? If so, and you aren't getting anything, then your unit might be defective.

hello I am Spanish and do not quite understand what I say, I connect my phone to the TV by HDMI and then open the rocketplayer by example and not play anything on TV.
I've seen people talking about playing with the entertaiment center hd but can not find how to start that application. I've seen that in managing applications is a size 0.0B, may be why?
Where I can get this application??
Thanks and regards.

When you plug in the HDMI cable, a pop-up should appear on the phone asking to start the HD Entertainment Center. That's the only way to get video-out onto the TV. If this isn't popping up and you haven't done anything to modify your phone software, then your device my have a problem.
ok thanks for the help, the only modification I've done is to make the root software, nothing else has that something to do?
I have only tested on a old TV, I'll try another to see if that is the problem, my TV is the first that came with hdmi at best can that be right?
Greetings
My Atrix had something wrong with it's HDMI, I had to return it and get a new one. When I plugged it in to a TV the phone would act properly (the pop-up menu would appear, and the controls would be present when the media center was selected) but I wouldn't see anything but snow on my TV. I also tried a HDMI computer monitor to the same effect. I lastly went to the ATT store and tried a dock, same problem.
Interesting to know that it was more than just mine.
Oh, mine was stock, not rooted yet.

Hi all, ultimately the problem is not the phone, I tested a friend's TV and it works perfectly, when you connect me jump hd window center and all good, so I have a problem with my TV.
If someone happens just as well try it on another TV in case.
Thanks for the tips and greetings.
Hello all,
I was finally able to connect my Nexus Q to a TV after waiting about a week for an OTG cable in the mail. Since set up I have noticed that the output from the Q is slightly larger than the display I am using. I haven't been able to find a solution within the settings, and I've found no information online due to the rarity and limited support of this product. If anyone could help point me in the direction of some kind of solution I would greatly appreciate it!

Might sound silly, but did you make sure your TV isn't zooming in? TVs do that to make non wide screen content fit the whole screen

I did go in and check that, but changing those settings didn't work. I began swapping other settings I saw to see what would work, and it turned out changing the "Overscan" to "off" solved the problem completely.
i do not have an overscan option, still having this issue.

What TV are you using? Are you using any adapters?
apex tv, just have the micro hdmi to HDMI port. I have it plugged into slot 1, had it in slot 2 and makes no differences by port
Has anyone had success with this? I just got CM 10.1 running on my Q, and the image extends off the screen's physical area in every direction. I also haven't got an OTG cable yet so I can't really do anything, but that's another issue...
Anyway, my Q is hooked up through a Harman/Kardon receiver, and I've had issues with Linux PCs not reading the EDID info properly in the past, so I suspect it's a similar problem. The stock firmware didn't seem to have a problem though, and neither does the Chromecast or any commercial device.
There's gotta be a way to adjust the video mode timing, right?
I can't get my LG V20 to connect to any of my Miracast enabled devices. I have a LG WebOS TV and a LG PH150G Projector and can't get either one to connect. On the Projector, the phone will find it just fine, but when it connects the projector will get stick at Signal Detection. On the LG WebOS TV it will just get stuck on connecting. Any solutions?
SOLVED for me at least! It is a conflict with the App 'AllCast' by clockworkMod. Once I uninstalled the app Miracast works!
I had the same problem trying to get the V20 to connect to a Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter. Suggestions would be appreciated!
That's odd. I have a 4k tv with chromecast integrated and also have an ezcast 4k dongle and both of them allow me to use DLNA and also screen mirroring. Currently using Weta Rom.

I think I can solve this one for u. Go into wifi settings and forget your home network(s). Restart phone. Now try to connect to dongle by selecting screen sharing from settings. Let me know. It always works for me

Tried your suggestions, but they didn't work. I am using the Tmobile variant of this device with the Dec. patch update.

I had trouble with miracast too a few months back. Gave up and just used smart share to watch my movies on my phone. I could look into it again and see if I can figure it out.
Edit.. Just hooked up fine first try. Mines not a webos but it is an lg 3d smart tv.

What version of the phone do you have (Carrier)? I have tried to connect to 4 different TV's and Miracast devices without success.
I just tried using Miracast in 'Safe Mode' and it almost works, The status bar changes to blue, and my projector now gets to starting stream, but eventually disconnects.

T-Mobile. I'm on a custom rom but don't thik that is the issue. Have you factory reset your phone yet? I know no one likes doing that, but might solve your issue. It's definitely the phone though and not your other devices. I know the first time I connect it makes me enter in a code from the tv, but after that it remembers the connection. Try going into your tv menu and see if you can connect from the tv to phone side as opposed to phone to tv.. Should have a menu option for it on all your lg devices that are miracast equipped.
Ok never mind saw you fixed it.
Hi I need some help please , I recieved the tv box from a friend with no remote. I plug in adaptor as well as usb to pc to power it up. There is blue light on tv box but no display on hdmi or av input. Any suggestions on how to switch it on or what to do.
It may be possible to control it using a usb keyboard and mouse if you could see the picture and it has the correct drivers. The picture thing sounds like the biggest problem, I would suggest trying different HDMI cables and tv settings. This is highly unlikely, but if by any chance your friend turned on usb debugging before the picture stopped working, there is a tool called scrcpy that can be used with adb that allows you to view your screen on your computer. It’s quite possible that the thing has broken itself, there’s a lot of reviews online about Android TV boxes spontaneously breaking after only a few months of use, sometimes less than that.
