So, when plugging it into a monitor and only using the cable, the only options that pop up is the "Multimedia" interface where you can only listen to music or see pictures/videos stored on the phone. Has anyone found a way to do a real video out so you can display your browser or certain apps like Youtube? Or perhaps even enable Webtop so you can view it over just the simple HDMI cable. I hate to have to buy a dock just to use Webtop.

There is some value in the build.prop file that might enable this.
Look for ro.hdmi.mirror.enable=false
Change to true and reboot the phone.
See if that helps.
you need to be root of course.

Well that worked while the phone was booting. After it detects the HDMI cable it goes back to blank and then lets me choose between doing nothing and Entertainment Mode and none bring back the mirror. It was working fine tho. While it lasted...

In the multimedia mode, is it popping up with the Windows Media Player like big icon's view on the monitor?
If so, there is a "Start Webtop" icon that should kick off the Linux webtop.

I can't do that. While you are in Entertainment mode you can change anything on the phone or it kicks out and the screen of blank.
AFAIK the Atrix doesnt have true HDMI Mirroring, only the LG Optimus 2X has got that. I might be wrong naturally.

But the mirroring was working. Except that when it detected the HDMI quickly when I unlocked my phone it went blank and asked me what I wanted to do. Entertainment Mode or Do Nothing and none of them got me back to the mirroring. If anyone has a solution or idea, let me know. I'll test.

I'll be getting the phone tomorrow and i'll take a look.
Mirroring is working - but something is overriding it in the settings.

Yeah we need to write that down. It was working beautifully. I even so the Moto logo while it was booting and the unlock screen. As soon as I unlocked it OR it detected the HDMI cable, it kicked into another mode and overwrote that = true statement.
I will be rooting it tomorrow so I can dive in and see about getting true mirroring to work. But if we can't get it to do it, this may be a deal breaker for me. I can only assume it is possible somehow.

You can try to delete the following two lines from build.prop:
ro.hdmi.default.app=
hw.overlay.path.config=
back it up first!
Let us know if that worked.
I hope it wont cause a boot up problem (it should not but you can never know).

That doesn't do anything different. I've got it happily mirroring through the boot sequence, drawing the lockscreen and my security pattern to the TV, but just as soon as it unlocks, Moto's crapware takes over and away it goes. It never comes back until it reboots.
Forgive my relative ignorance with Android-- this is only the second one I've ever owned. Is there a way to bypass the restriction and uninstall either the Entertainment Center or the DockProvider packages? I have a hunch that it's one of those getting in the way of things, but I can't be certain.
anyone know how to get in mirror mode

Thanks, some nice stuff in there, even if a lot of it is really a ADW.EX tutorial.
Just fyi, you have a typo in the video description--you say ADX EX launcher.
About Customize Menu--you can reorder (or remove theoretically, but this was buggy for me) the items that appear on the top bar and in the drop-down when you push the menu button. I use this so that I can have Add in the menu, because I keep the top bar hidden and there is no other easy access to add/remove/move home screen pages.

I have to try this when I get home, the homescreen redraw drives me nuts, and its completely unecessary imo!
EDIT - OMGGGGGGGGG finally, the tablet has no effing homescreen redraw lag, thank you Jade Eyed Wolf!
Oh, oh. Just did this and now the tablet won't start!!!! I just get the initial "galaxy tablet 7.7" screen and then it stays black....
Any ideas? The only thing I changed was this
"Add this line to "/system/build.prop":
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0"
Help!!!!!
can someone post a copy of their build.prop (6810)? Would that help?
I can get into recovery, but rebooting form there doesn't do anything.....
Anyone with any bright ideas?
I can get into recovery, but I can't connect to the device via the pc to get at the files. well, that isn't quite true, I can see them if I use a pgr called DROIDEXPLORER, I can copy from the device to the PC but not back the other way. So I tried to edit the build.prop locally and push it back (using droidexplorer) but the one on the device just stays the same with the edit above in it...
I'm now considering flashing a new FW as the only way to get the tab going again.
Any help?
followed instructions and still couldn't write to sd card with ES File Explorer. Can't tell with homepage redraw... What's bad is that this killed my internet connection. After rebooting, the status bar shows me connected to either my home wifi or my H+ service provider but I can't access the internet nor my local network... Restarting the 7.7, deleting the relevant lines, restarting my router/cable modem (still have internet on my main comp and ipad) all didn't help.
I guess I have to reflash my 7.7.
OK, so after a sleepless night (the little one was on full song) I reflashed my Tab this morning and way hey! It is back in the land of the living.
Pheww.
Jade, I think the hack to keep the homescreen in memory might need to be revisited? I followed the instructions to the letter. After applying the hack the device just would not come to life. It wasn't a case of screen-off, device on either. I plugged it in to a PC and there was nothing. The only way I could get the PC to see it was to start it in recovery.
Maybe it is just a combination of things on my machine and I guess these things can just happen, but I think it might be worth checking?
I'm totally happy with flashing now though

It worked for me (Galaxy Tab 7.7 wifi) so you probably entered something wrong... Actually I realised that after entering "ro." the keyboard inserted a space after the dot, so it looked like this: ro. HOME_APP_ADJ=0 and it is like this: ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=0 see the difference?
I realised right away and fixed it. If I were you I would try it again....
It works for me alright, I don't know if at the end uses too much ram and slows down other things, if it does I'll just delete that line and that's it....

Nope, just tried it again, result dead tablet... My tablet definitely does not like this line in build.prop
So, I would advise caution with this line. Take a backup before trying it or get comfortable with reflashing.

HAs anyone got any bright ideas about pushing the original build.prop file back? ADB push just gives me "failed to copy 'build.prop' to '/system/build.prop': Read Only File
I'd rather just get the correct one in there than re-flash...
Not quite sure where to post this, so I'll try here. Mods, please move to the correct forum if it is in the wrong one.
Back when the OG Droid came out, the screen could rotate all 4 ways (up, landscape left, landscape right, upside down). Never had a need for it, but it was cool. I noticed that as Android evolved, being able to hold your device upside down disappeared. Again, never had a need for it, so IO didn't care.
Now, I need it. In my car, I put the phone in the cupholder of my armrest/center console. Because the charging and headphone jack is on the bottom, I have to operate everything upside down. Is this an Android or manufacturer *feature* that was removed? Can it be put back? Can a mod be made to make it work?
I don't want a dock for my phone, I've had them before, and don't like them. I also like to have full control of my phone, not just what the manufacturer wants me to control.
Thanks.

Ultimate Rotation Control by FAMEIT *does* support reverse portrait or at least the licensed version does. But I did root, not sure if that matters.

Dang. There were a few options but that one looked promising by the description.
Try a search in the app store for "Reverse Portrait" and give the free ones a shot...? Some seem to have a "force" option for when it doesn't happen automatically (or lock in reverse portrait). If they can be invoked with one click, it wouldn't seem too much of an inconvenience.
Edit: Rotation Control Lite was the one I was looking at, might try that myself.
Just thought I would warn everyone to not go poking around and enable 'Force RTL layout direction' it crashes System IU in 5.1. I'm still looking for a way to correct it, but it looks like factory reset is going to be the only answer.

I also bricked my phone on Wednesday when I selected this option, but I was only partially sure that it was to blame. I spent 2.5 hours on the phone with Motorola this morning, and went from a guy who barely spoke English up to a guy who was very-clearly in the USA, and they confirmed the issue and opened a bug ticket. Don't expect a fix anytime soon.

RTL is Right to Left.
Basically the option flips all things on android... so in the settings, as it reads from left to right, "wifi - on" the setting is reversed "on - wifi" sort of a setting meant for lefties.. or just those that like toggles on the left side instead of right.

I can't tell if you're trolling or being serious.
RTL is meant to make the whole phone more convenient for lefties. Your homescreen goes from being the leftmost screen to the rightmost.
Wait, no, it's actually meant to completely **** up all our devices. Yeah, that's it.

No, I do not think so.
Never used this feature nor am i on 5.1 but just tossin my 2 cents. What about using a OTG cable and connect a mouse to it? Not sure to what extent the phone is usable but when my aunt dropped my phome (not even a month old ooooooo i was furious. This is why i dont let people touch my phone. Luckly phone was too new and no refurbs out so they sent me a new one lol) but the digitizer and screen were cracked broken and bleeding. I was going to to fastboot since phone was stuck in camera mode for usb for helium back and no syncing programs setup yet but i tossed on my otg cable and plugged in a mouse and changed usb features, backed up apps to google drive the change usb mode and copied all my files off.
Hope that works for ya

I wish that would have fixed it, the system is responsive but 'System UI' crashes and there is 0 way to get out of it or access the system after that point. When you power on the phone you don't even make it to the lock screen it just dies.

My comment isn't relevant to this post but I just wanted to clear up the misconception about RTL. It isn't for lefties (I'm a lefty, it makes no difference to us), it's for languages that go from right to left, like Arabic. English, French, Spanish etc. go from left to right.

I really don't have a dog in this fight but heres where I got my info from, "While most of us are used to left-to-right text, menus, and whatnot, there are certainly users who’d prefer their smartphone or tablet to have right-to-left layouts. Of course, if your device’s system language is one that uses a right-to-left script (like Arabic, or Hebrew), the change from LTR to RTL is done automatically. However, Android allows you to force RTL layouts even when using a left-to-right language. "
Source - PhoneArena
So I'm not saying no or disagreeing, just saying that from that article, apparently RTL languages, once set in the settings automatically switch. I'll start source linking all my info from now on.
Hi,
I just got a T-mobile S7 edge and love the phone. I was playing with the DLNA option called Smart View. Picked it from the the Gallery and it opened a new window for me to select where to stream the picture. Came up with 4 of my devices in the house. I picked one. Unfortunately, not the right one. However, I cant seem to find a way to change that setting. Everytime I go to a picture and click on Smart View, it auto selects the earlier selection of device. Any ideas where I can change this setting for Smart view?
Thanks

When you open smart view again, it isn't showing the rest of your available devices? It should scan again and you should see the other devices connected.

Glad you got it sorted out.
Ive googled the hell out of LG G6 System UI Tuner, and searched all of the LG Specific forums on XDA, and came up with nothing.
Ive read that its possible to enable it on EMUI Devices, but havent found a way to enable it on the LG G6. Is this something we will have to wait until root/bootloader unlock is fully achieved, or something we can enable with ADB commands?
The main reason Id want access to the Tuner, is to disable these damned Peek/Heads Up notifications.
If the G6 is anything like the V20, LG has just removed the content of the activity altogether, which means short of recreating it in Smali, it's not going to work.
If you want, you can give my replica a shot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-systemui-tuner-t3588675
You can edit what apps can show notifications by going to Settings>Apps and then edit each apps permissions and notifications
Sure can, but what a ballache
Is it possible through Nova launcher activities? I can access it on my htc m9 through that. I don't have a g6 yet, but looking to acquire one soon....

Ive googled the hell out of LG G6 System UI Tuner, and searched all of the LG Specific forums on XDA, and came up with nothing.
Ive read that its possible to enable it on EMUI Devices, but havent found a way to enable it on the LG G6. Is this something we will have to wait until root/bootloader unlock is fully achieved, or something we can enable with ADB commands?
The main reason Id want access to the Tuner, is to disable these damned Peek/Heads Up notifications.

Yes it's possible and I've done it with this app. I've disabled the alarm, Bluetooth and the Wi-Fi icon on my G6

That's probably the closest we're gonna get until root is achieved, but it works for me.

If the G6 is anything like the V20, LG has just removed the content of the activity altogether, which means short of recreating it in Smali, it's not going to work.

That looks like it's just for DPI scaling? I'm fine with the stock DPI.

No, it doesn't even have a DPI Changer.

Works like a charm, I think. I get my notifications, without a stupid annoying ass popup!!
Cant actually change the notification level of individual apps though. But everything is on the level I wanted, I think its 2, where it allows all alerts, but doesnt allow peek or full screen notification, which is what I HATE!

If you reboot, the notification level control should work. You need to tap the "A" icon to turn it off auto mode.

Not OP, but I just tried your app, and it worked exactly as expected after granting the permissions via ADB. Finally got the clutter (BT, NFC, Alarm) hidden from my status bar. The only thing I noticed was that after reboot, the Bluetooth toggle reset to on, but the icon was still hidden (reseting blacklist restored it). I didn't try playing with the other options.

I'll check the Bluetooth toggle out. That's definitely weird...

I should be uploading a build within the next hour that'll fix your problem. The method I was using was ignoring the first item in the blacklist string (ie the first switch you used).
I really can't understand why companies like LG find it necessary to remove these things...I mean, it's not like it's a feature that can confuse some people (which is the only good reason I've heard for this type of thing) cuz this is pretty hidden to begin with.

I can't figure it out either. I decompiled the V20 System UI and saw that they'd basically just removed all the code from the Tuner activity, like a second thought.
Nvm i got it to work. Just cant get rid of that battery icon it seems,. darn it
The app helped me as well, though I couldn't get it to hide the WiFi Calling indicator. Also, I'd love for a way to get a battery icon with the numbers inside the battery...wtf my first ever android phone from 2011 had that as an option, the heck LG?
