When I connect my HDMI cable to my Eeepad the wifi stops working!
anyone else gets the problem?
No problem with that here.
Weird, sometimes that happens to me. I think it makes the wifi signal worse is what it does. How is your signal before you plug it in?
this is exactly what is happening to me. when i dont have the hdmi cable plugged in i get full speed (14 mbits with speedtest). when i plug in the hdmi cable the internet stops working. tried doing a speedtest and it gets a network error.
also, my hdmi connection is only working at 720p, not 1080p. i have official 3.1 installed and the latest dock firmware as well.
any ideas guys?
I would contact Asus (use the US tech support e-mail, don't call their call center) and let them know what you are seeing. I read some had greater success e-mailing them.
A few things to note/think about:
Are you using the docking keyboard?
Are you using a certified HDMI cable?
Does moving the tablet with respect to the display ahve any effect on the wifi signal?
(to get a better feel on the wifi signal strength, I have been using free app wifi analyzer)
Are you getting 1080p out or just 720?
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
Hey all, I just got an A500, rooted it, flashed bootloader, recovery, custom ROM, all is good. One issue, I did not see anything on point in the Q&A section on this. I have a standard HDMI cable hooked between my laptop and second monitor. I did get a micro HDMI adapter. I pulled the cable from the laptop and plugged it into the tablet. Black screen on the monitor, although the orientation on the tablet does switch. When I pull the cable out of the tablet I do get a "check signal cable" message across the monitor, so it does seem to be "connecting". I've searched every setting on the tablet, there doesn't seem to be anything else I need to do on it. Am I missing something? The monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster 940BW, fwiw. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Which ROM are you using for your tablet? ICS or JB? I have a Sony Bravia and when using ICS ROM, everything worked fine. But for the JB, only video but no sounds on the TV, only sound from tablet. It's a known issue for JB ROM. Is this the first time that you use the HDMI from tablet to TV? If yes, I suggest you check the TV's manual for set up option for HDMI. For my Sony TV, I had to use the remote control to select the input option every time I connect the tablet to TV.

PJ Sports 10/27, yes, JB. Sorry, I did not make it clear that I am trying to plug it into my 2nd monitor, not a TV. So, effectively it's a direct path from the tablet to the monitor. Does that help to clarify?
Hello,
I have a Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and i'm not using it at all, so i wanted to know if there's any way to turn it to be a lagless pc monitor.
I know there is apps that connect to the pc and let the tablet be monitor but the problem is that I must have a 60 fps image.
Because the tablet is old the apps that i installed on him working slow..
so I thought maybe you guys know a way to connect my pc to my tablet and get a 60 fps result (I can use a cable from pc to tablet if needed)?
Thanks !
Hello,
yesterday my tablet fell off to the ground. The display is black now, but the tablet still running.
It's still connected to my Wi-Fi and when I plug in the USB the PC finds it as well.
Now my question, what can I do to recover my data (bring it into transfer mode) or even better, how to connect it to a display?
I have Google Chromecast here, but I don't know how to connect it without seeing anything on the screen.
Can anyone help me out and give some ideas?
Big thanks!
