Its seems not to work,did a restart on the xoom and turned the TV on and off. Unplugged the cable and plugged it back in tryed over and over.Tryed another TV same thing nothing.

What does it do when you plug it in? Mine is running the new update but no flash and it works perfectly. Just tried it today. You may need to do a factory reset or something.
Also, are you rooted?
Thanks for the reply. when i try to connect the xoom to the tv. The tv just says check signal cable . I have a samsung 8000 and a samsung 58 8000 plasma both didnt work. Says the same thing. check signal cable
I don't think its the OTA or flash because its working for me right now when hooking to my computer monitor.
Fudge with it. HDMI works fine after 3.0.1 update.
Its broken for me too, here's a work around. Have a movie playing on the xoom and then hook up the cable.

Try another cable?

I've tried both the realHDMI app and the stock gallery app and nobody seems to be able to detect it. First I tried on a samsung DLP (bought it back when they didn't have HDMI) using a micohdmi to hdmi-dvi and got nothing but figured it probably wouldn't work anyway because the TV is not true hdmi, then I tried it on my new akai tv with HDMI (both apps) and a 10ft HDMI cable (i think it's a class 2.5 not sure) and the tv keep flashing blue and black like it was trying to get a single but the phone ended up saying no cable.
I thought realhdmi would have an option to "force" it on. any tips on what I can do?
Thanks for the help guys.
Also interested in fix for this..

I will confirm if the HDMI problem is usual, cause I know people have been having problems with that, I will be getting my HDMI cable in the mail soon, will let you know. I have sometimes experienced slow downs on mine as well. Have you tried formatting the Xoom?

The USB port is very weak on my Xoom (and others, I've read). You need to plug the USB cable into a MOTHERBOARD MOUNTED USB port to make it work reliably. Using a front panel USB port, or any other port that is cabled off of the motherboard, can cause problems.
I personnaly mount my xoom into the front panel USB port and have had no problems with it so far.
i too use the USB ports on the front of my tower and it works fine...
My USB cable that came with it was the problem, used a different one and it was transfering fine

Because tv has hdmi input and laptop has hdmi output. You are trying to output hdmi from your phone which should go into the input. Since your laptop is not an input you cannot and will not see anything.

Is there any adapters that are made to lets say Hdmi to usb? I've seen one for hdmi to svideo. But most laptops don't have that either.

Are you just trying to use the laptop screen as a TV for the phone?
Yeah. Pointless I know I mean its a laptop. But my computer has hdmi inputs. Well the monitor does.

If your monitor has hdmi input then just plug in the hdmi cable into it.

so what you are saying is it shows nothing either on my phone or my laptop after connecting the HDMI cable ?
actually what I need to do is to run webtop on my computer.so i need to root the phone.before rooting i need to know all the things are working perfectly .
After rooting would it show those options in my phone and the laptop ?

@zeealot, you cant connect your phone to any laptop via hdmi... the hdmi port on your phone is for output so as the hdmi port on most laptops so therefore you cant connect output-to-output
if you want to display/output your phone on a bigger screen, you can only connect to a tv or an external monitor that has hdmi input port... also, rooting your phone doesnt have anything to do with it... I hope I explained that clearly to you

You could try using a HDMI capture device like this one:

but it is probably expensive.
$200 its professional grade used for way more then what your wanting it for. You can actually hook up your xbox or ps3 to your laptop with this and record the game play as your playing it.

Why don't you just buy the laptop and be done with it? You obviously have no clue about how HDMI works, and I wouldn't trust you trying to perform mods to your phone because I know you'll end up here whinging you bricked your phone.
Sigh.

you CAN NOT connect it to a laptop BUT if you're referring to an external display with hdmi input (monitor/tv) you can still use webtop without a dock... just search the forum for hdmi mirroring
Is there any way to make the HDMI output of the laptop to HDMI input ?like by using a converter ?
No. It's not possible. Period.
Use your TV, or get the lap dock, there is physically no way to make your laptop show the webtop off of your phone without an extra tuner card (hdmi are expensive, and not worth it).
Btw, google is your friend.

I think yhe2x had made it very clear already! Buy a new LapTop with HDMI "IN" port.
Even though I think dingdong a laptop with any form of input would be nearly impossible. Laptops just aren't something people expect, or use, as a secondary display.
Plain and simple... There is no way to connect your phone to the laptop and use webtop mode. TV, yes. HDMI computer monitor, yes. Laptop, no.

I tried connecting the tab to my 720p TV and all I get is the android mascot saying 720p? The sound however plays if I play some video. Does anyone else have this problem?
gIVE MORE INFO IT SHOULD JUST WORK
first ..
is your tablet Stock . some custom roms have issues with hdmi..
have you tested the cable with another device.. the micro hdmi cable seems to have a very high defective rate.
With the above known issues ..
if you are stock and you have your tv on the correct input device setting.
try connecting the cable set the tv correctly.. as in hdmi 3 in the tvs menue and the cable connected to port 3..
turn off both ..
turn on tv set it hdmi 3.
turn off your tablet. plug in the cable to iconia.. turn on tablet.. see if this works..
others have said this helps.. my hdmi port would not work correctly when i got my tablet had to hold the hdmi cable just right. this was only temporary for some reason.. g
GOOD LUCK..
Is the picture your seeing with the android figure on your Iconia or your tv?? Or both??? You should see a mirror image of your iconia on the tv. If your getting the message on the tv and the iconia is displaying its normal desktop image than your tv may not support 720p input or your iconia couldn't negotiate the resolution with your tv. Try a different hdmi port or a different tv and see what happens.
its stock with the latest os. The message only shows up on the TV. TV definitely supports 720p as that's what I am outputting my TV stb and my streaming box to. Hopefully this is just a case of a defective microusb cable. I could try it another TV, but it wouldn't tell me if the ddevice is defective or the cable. I guess I will have to buy another microusb cable aand hope it works.
If your seeing an image on your tv than I don't think its the cable. The Iconia just may not be able to talk to your tv properly. I would try it on another tv if able just to confirm. Also, turn your tv off, fully power down your tablet, plug together, first turn on tv, after tv is up and running then turn on your iconia. It seems to me that something is going on with the hdmi handshake and this should get your devices to talk to each other in the correct order.

My Iconia works fine, but I had this same issue on an older Toshiba laptop, and these procedures worked every time.
So I tried the above instructions turning both devices on, connecting, turning tv on first and then the iconia but still the same result. The green android mascot with the 720p? speech bubble. I guess I will have to try another tv somewhere.
Same issue for me, I bought this cable today for 19,99 €.
I read in an another thread (not in xda), that the problem is solved with a high quality cable (hdmi 1.3 or more, 39,99 €).
Or directly in the acer store : here.

Are you on a stock rom near stock.. Some of the Well cooked roms could have a issue with this function.. If you are on a custom rom.. Go to the rom developers thread and ask this Question . If you are on stock 3.2.1 the most current . I would try if you can to test your cable. If the cable is not bad Call ACER (GOOD LUCK WITH THAT). I know mine I put the cable in back of tv on HDMI 4 . SET THE TV Input to hdmi 4 and plug it in..
anyway good luck also people have said they needed to wiggly around there cable use caution doing so..
im using a 6€ cable from some cheap market and everything works fine with thors kernel 3.9r4..
i had many troubles with hdmi and other kernels.. tv and tablet have to be on and then plug in the cable.. thats the only way to get it working for me
I just opened my box today, and tried to use a wireless 360 controller. I have done this on my Galaxy Nexus, and it worked fine. I have tried wireless keyboard and mouse, wired mouse, and the controller on the Nexus 7 and none of them work (all of them do on my phone). Is there something I am missing? The usb port works, I can connect it to my computer and it is recognized.
Probably need root.

Just tried to connect a wii remote to test, and it connects fine.
Well, I rooted mine, and tried again, and no dice. And I know it should work, a lot of people have it working and it even says on Google's site that it should work. And I know everything else is good because the same devices with the same USB to micro-USB adapter on my Galaxy Nexus.

Also - the wireless receiver shows a green power light when plugged in to my phone, but not when plugged into my Nexus 7.
I don't think host mode is enabled out of the box. I get the same results on mine and have tried stickmount, wireless mouse and keyboards all through my otg adapter which works fine on my Galaxy Nexus.

I figured it out! My adapter was too short, it works on the phone, but it doesn't fit in far enough. I cut some extra plastic off of the micro-end of the adapter, and it fits in now, and works fine!
Hmm, I'll give that a shot.
Edit: That worked! Im typing this on my USB keyboard. I only had to remove the tiniest amount to get it to work. Thanks for the tip!
