Sarcasm ftw.
Need a little more info, are you rooted, running a custom rom, what program are you trying to get too play on your tv? I love how people come on and post crap like this and expect a decent answer.

Not every device you plug the HDMI cord into is compatible with the HDMI stack on the Evo. For example: My LG TV accepts the HDMI out just fine, but my RCA TV causes my phone to instantly reboot.

It would REALLY help if you gave more info. What kind of movie? What player? What codec, resolution, bitrate is the movie? What kind of tv? where did you get the cable?

Hay one of my TVs has the instant reboot I thought it was a feature.

Try this as soon as the video starts playing unplug the HDMI and plug it back in. I have to do this all the time. You might have to do it more than once.

[Q] HDMI Out, How?

I got my mom a hdmi d cable to watch media and gallery is not outputting to the tv. Am I doing something wrong? Does fission_2.5.7_BE not allow for hdmi out? Would a newer gingerbread rom be the way to go.
Sorry for the ignorance but I know nothing of the moto x. Please help.

Don't know about running on fission. There is an app in the market called real hdmi that might be able to help.

I'm not sure about fission, but if I remember correctly, the Rom cannot be de-blurred and still use HDMI out.

bluetooth through OTG?

Hey guys, just curious since I know the BT in the device is a bust would it be possible to get BT unning through an OTG cable and adapter. I was only thinking about this because i was going to try playing with an emulator and thought it would be neat to be able to use a real game controller.

Not possible, you'd need driver support in the ROM for specific hardware.

AW: [Q] HDMI output with root
Works fine here bro..
Sent from my KFTT using xda premium

I'm also rooted and mine outputs with no issues. Occasionally the cable loosens and cuts out but I just plug it back in and it's fine. Make sure it's securely plugged in.

Mine works perfect for me

Works for me.

Thanks
Cheers for the replies guys. i'll try some other cables and see if that was causing the problem!

One further thing to check is your TV settings. On my TV for example you had to enable the port in the TV settings before you could even switch to it. Also depending on what the port was defined as it may or may not pass audio. Worth digging around in your TV menus.

Snow/Noise
I have a rooted KFHD. Get frequent snowing effect on the TV when using the HDMI cable. I believe it is the cable, but have read everywhere that HDMI doesn't get noise/snow. So could it be the device or the port?

Snow doubtful.... but snow in general is doubtful
Is this hooked direct into your tv or is there a box between.

Kindle Fire HD and 2 HDMI Port

Bassbase,
Yes, we use it weekly in the office on a Kindle Fire HD 8.9" and a Kindle Fire HD 7", it works flawlessly on a 72" TV which we use for presentations with sound and at home I use a HDMI Converter on an old TV at home, it too works flawlessly with Netfix and Hulu. What apps are you using? Have you tried Hulu or Netflix? I can say Root is not needed to make the HDMI Port function properly nor does Root affect the HDMI Port. If you give me the App name we will test it in the office.

Bluetooth dongle on MK808 (non-B)

So I have this MK808 that doesn't have bluetooth, but I have an IOgear USB dongle that has the Broadcom BCM2045 chip in it. Of course, it doesn't work when I try it. After a bit of googling, I found this website that has some dude getting it to work with something called a "Beagleboard" which seems to have similar specs as the MK808 (some differences).
http://antweb.me/index.php/blog-rea...-on-a-beagleboard-xm-running-android-ics.html
Any idea if those tricks will work on the stock MK808 ROM? Any idea if those mods are in any custom ROMs? Anyone want to try it out?
If not, I'll just return it and get the MK808B and be done with it. I figured that might help someone else, too.
Oh, and the USB BT dongle is the IOgear GBU221WM / GBU231WM if that helps. It's just a wrapper for that BCM2045 chip, though.

Majority of kernels/roms should have the bluetooth modules installed and working as standard now. Could always try flashing a new rom?

AFAIK this will NOT work.
Unless there has been a recent breakthrough. I have about 6 different Bluetooth USB adapters and tried everything from CM10 to Finless to MINIX Hybrid with various custom kernels.
I've found NO working combination. The drivers are there but something is failing. I've looked at logcats and watch it start and stop.
So I don't know. Hopefully one day because the lack of Bluetooth is annoying. I'd love to use my MOGA or PS3 with Bluetooth. I have a wireless 360 but I like the PS3 for emulators because of the good dpad.

just checkout the Funseries V3 Rom for Micromax Funbook..and some spansish dev also had included dongle support in their Roms.

The dongle I have (full-sized like Bluetooth 1.x?) doesn't work...
I think it depends on the Kernel modules/drivers?
