I have seen references to "Desk Dock" app for the Verizon Razr HD and having it come up when using an ESP cable???
I know there are no docking stations for the Razr HD (at least I cannot find any) but does anyone know if there is a way to get a Desk Dock app to popup?
I'd really like to use the Razr HD as a night-stand alarm clock just like I've done with all my previous phones.
Any input would be appreciated.
There are docking stations available for the HD on eBay, original Motorola docks. They have a HDMI and USB port at the rear.

Are you sure those weren't HD Multimedia docks for the original RAZRs? When I was looking a few weeks ago, those were the only ones I could find.

I found one on eBay but they dont confirm if its compatible with this particular phone.
I can't paste the link here because it says I dont have 10 posts yet... lol..
Here ya go. It's a tablet or phone dock that'll work with the razr hd. It'll just be a little off center.

That's the one!
I said eBay by accident.. I was searching Amazon but that is the same one!
It didnt list the compatible models so I wasnt sure it would work, but, if someone else has tried it, I will grab one.
Thanks to all.

If you're using something like Nova Launcher, you can make a desktop shortcut for the action to trigger the Desk Dock (works also for triggering Car Mode).

Is there a way or an app that will allow you to project your tablet screen to a tv? For work we need a TV that will allow us to project the tablet screen on it. We have yet to buy a TV yet and we currently have Galaxy S tablet as an option or the Moto Xoom as another option. Any suggestions? I've Googled for a solution and I've also looked through the market and haven't found anything. Being able to project wireless would be MUCH preferred.
Thanks!
You have the software on the tab already its called All share but you have to use a Samsung TV and that also has to have All Share on it.

I think he means an app that can do the same thing as the HDMI dock. The HDMI dock allows everything to be projected to the TV, not just media. In other words a mirroring app such as ones that exist for the Droid X and EVO but wireless. I would be interested in this find as well. Right now I use the HDMI dock which works quiet well but a wireless solution would be gold.
I use a $24 cable I bought from ebay. Then I project my screen through my video projector, but to a tv would be just as simple.

As has been said already, this only allows you to share media (eg video) rather than apps/homescreen etc.
However, Allshare is a DLNA client/server that works with any other DLNA device, not just Samsung TVs.

This cable is a nice and cheap alternative. However keep in mind that it won't charge your tab while it is in use while the HDMI dock does.
can we log in to internet via hdmi dock to TV?

Yup you sure can. If you have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse you can do anything from your couch if you wanted to. I recommend the Logitech dinovo mini or dinovo edge if you want this option.
I know this thread is kind of old but I want to ask...I want to do the samething wirelessly on my note 10.1 2014....now I don't have a smart TV but with chromecast is it possible? Also would chromecast have to be rooted? I don't want to be able to use some apps...I want to be able to see my TV the same exact way that I do while it is on the tablet

How about the usb cable? I am not sure about your tablet, but it should have a tv out option in the settings. I hope this helps.

Does this work for all docks???

Would be great if they made it open source, don’t see why it wouldn’t be compatible with any dock. Indiegogo is a crowd funding site so i guess you can ask for features to be added?

This only passes audio through the 3.5mm jack.
That's fine with me. I can get a $100 clock radio for $20.00.

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.

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.
Just installed.
Loving it!

It's something my dealer put in as an aftermarket navigation unit. It's a Chinese unit that's distributed in North America by "Rosen Electronics". Model number is DS-HY1120-P11, special-fit for 2011-2013 Hyundai Sonatas.
That being said, any head unit with an AUX-in will work.

Using openelec?
Same setup used pretty much here but without inverter.
Soon will add in a 2.5" HD to store some media without needing to connect to home media server.
Previous experience is that the HD generates noise, classic alternator whine.

No, using RaspBMC at the moment. I like OpenELEC but you can't launch a web browser with it, so I went with RaspBMC and the Advanced Launcher trick to get Chrome working. I've got the wifi dongle in the Pi and I just turn on my wifi hotspot on my cellphone and voila - internet browsing in the car
I've also got an NFC tag in the car that my phone scans (with the screen off, thanks to the Xposed hack on Android) which turns my Bluetooth and Wifi Hotspot on when I enter the car, and off when I exit.
That's pretty cool the nfc!
Only use openelec so its easier to store user data on usb. Help with updates and not rebuilding library.
Great through a stereo! Sub woofer, gun shots lol
15 years ago had an mini crt screen and installed that in car, then the n64 got added . Multiplayer goldeneye, bong mix lol. Those were the days :angel:

Just a third party mce remote. Will get a better photo and details when back from work.
Got it out of a place called maplin electronics here in UK. Cheapy mce remote that's all. But works well and has a little trackpad on it for mouse operations.

Do you have any reference material on how to get an MCE remote working with the Pi? Or, does it just work out of the box when the USB dongle is plugged in?

How do you deal with the engine startup?
does the USB Hub have some kind of safety feature that helps protect against overcharging, or does the inverter help there?
if so, do you have a link to that inverter? looking to do samt mod, but haven't found a safety feature to prevent overcharge during engine startup.
So you use the screen of the car to display stuff from your rasp pi? And you have a sonata? What's the screen resolution?

Touchscreen doesn't work, gotta use the remote. I'm sure there's a way to jack into the touch, but that's WAY too advanced for my limited skillset
Just a heads up for all you a/v nerd types out there in Moto-land.
This thing works for us too!

Because HDMI is ALL it has. no composite video on ring2 of the headphone jack, no other way to get video out of the phone onto a bigger screen.
you plug this into your phone, then you can plug your phone into a monitor or projector that doesn't have an HDMI input but has VGA or RGBHV (with appropriate cables)
Many conference rooms/presentation rooms/auditoriums still don't have HDMI/DVI on podiums but use RGB video distribution systems,
and it looks great.
That's why we need this!
Cool! Thanks for this! I have a monitor and speakers I use with my netbook. Now when my netbook is being used for couponing by my roommate I can watch stuff without dragging my roku to my bedroom!
