You need the right cable. I bet you've bought MHL when you need SlimPort.

You could also get a miracast compatible receiver (I have the ptv3000 myself) so you can wirelessly display your screen to the TV (though it is NOT 1:1 and while audio and video is in sync it it doesn't have excellent video quality and gaming doesn't work well at all - check the Wireless display thread in nexus 4 accessories)

I realized some tvs have a usb port for tv out on some cameras and portable media players. My question is would it be possible to use the usb cable to project an image at least on a tv?

There are reports that the Vibrant is compatible with a microUSB to HDMI Out cable.
I can only hope it looks better then the headphone video out. I tried it and it really looks like trash.
Since our milestones 2 are capable of play 720p video, is there any way to display the video being played on the phone on the external lcd screen via some kind of cable?
I think, DLNA is the only way. But I am not sure... It hasn't even tv out in 3,5 jack
I think it is not possible. Milestone XT720 has support for HDMI. Probably ATRIX could also be somehow connected to bigger display.

DLNA works quite well in my experience.
LOL, I think he didn't mean 3,5 mm jack but MicroUSB TV Out ...
Whats so funny about that, my Nokia 5800 used the 3,5 Jack aswell and it worked Fine. But i tryed the Cable on this Phone it doesnt work, it works on the GalaxyS.. but not on the MS2

Hey mate! Just read what I wrote... It hasn't EVEN tv out in jack, much less in microUSB and so on
so, typically, there's no way? you know, not all device support DLNA
I have a micro hdmi to full hdmi that i use for my xoom and evo to connect ot my 65inch tv. It works great and I love it but in my bed room i have a 30 inch tv and it only has dvi input. So i bought a hdmi to dvi adaptor and was so happy to get it and my luck it doesnt work. The tv doesnt detect the input and says its not active. I got the tv to display the xoom a few times but the tv pops up a box saying Signal test...which is what it does when there is no signal/input. I tried to plug it into my monitor with the dvi adaptor and the screen is blank. Really makes me sad i was so exited. I pluged my evo into the cable with the dvi adaptor and it does work so im not sure why the Xoom is having issues. I also plugged in my laptop into the tv with a full hdmi cable and used the dvi adaptor and it worked perfectly. Not sure if anyone else has the same issues. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Does that TV display 1080p? The Xoom will mirror itself in 1080P - If that TV cant handle it, it wont display it. Most old school 30 inchers are 720p max

To be honest, if its working fine with the cable on another TV;
then its either the adapter or the TV input - but the most logical explanation, is that the TV cannot display 1080p.
Currently there is no way to scale down the mirroring - maybe in the future tho!
its strange because I can get the tv to show the xoom sometimes but i get that test box floating around even tho i can see the image. so it works kindof. little zoomed in and no way to disable the test feature. Really sucks because that was one of the main reasons I liked the xoom so much. wanted to play my N64 emulator on my tv from my bed lol. Tv was free so cant complain i guess. Just need to save for a newer one.
Pretty sure the output is 720p. It doesn't upscale.. it chops off the bottom to fit 1280x720.

Just spent all my money on a HD projector and the xoom so might have to wait for the bedroom TV...wall to small for projector in bedroom so it goes it the media room. Just need a nice media server for it. Haven't found one I like yet

Ive been trying to do this too and have discovered why its not working. Basically the Xoom does not output the required 5 volts needed to project the signal through the DVI adapter and onto the monitor. The only way around this is to add the 5 volts the best way I can see to do this is to purchase this (or something similar, I'm pretty sure there is a US made equivalent):

Here is a nice one from Monoprice that also supplies the required 5 volts.
Go to Monoprice.com and search for:
Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Converters
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Mini DisplayPort | to DVI (2 DVI Output) Converter
This video converter lets you connect your Mac or other computer with Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt data port to a pair of high-resolution DVI displays!
The MMP-MDMP2D01 converter uses the Mini DisplayPort input standard, which can also be used on computers with the newer Thunderbolt data port. The converter then sends the video output to two DVI+I (digital only) displays at resolutions up to 1920x1080p.
By using HDMI circuitry, the converter supports full HDMI High Speed capabilities, including 225 MHz/2.25 Gbps per channel bandwidth (6.75 Gbps total) and 12-bit per channel (36-bit total) deep color modes. The unit comes complete with a 33" Mini DisplayPort M/M cable and a 5 VDC AC adapter (US and Canadian UL listed).
How does video out work on the Galaxy Tab? Basically, I'm torn between the Xoom and the Tab 10.1. I'm leaning towards the Tab due to the video format support.
I understand the 10.1 isn't out yet, but I'm assuming the video out will work similarly since the new Tab will still not have HDMI out.
What connector would I need to connect my Tab's output to my TV? Would there be a way of getting audio and video out to HDMI through an adapter? Or would I need to use the headphone jack as well?
Thanks.

The 7" Tab has analog video out via cable, and digital video out via an HDMI port on the multimedia dock - I'd imagine the larger Tabs would be about the same.
I bought an HTC Media Link today, ostensibly for my Desire HD, but I checked that it does work with the Tab, so that is likely another option on the larger Tabs.

The part I hate the most about docking is u can't watch movie that u rent from mediahub tru your big screen. It is not allowed thanks to drm
Streaming using dlna is good enough so u might skip buying anything

No, HTC Media Link is DLNA client that plugs into your TV.

Oh, . . . Thank you.
Has anybody tried to connect your a500 to a projector and it worked? and if so can you share how to do it.
You'd need a projector with hdmi or dvi with hdcp and use a dvi to hdmi adapter.
Anything else would require an expensive transcoder device inbetween

I just ordered an HP hdmi to VGA adapter that I found on David M Kern's blog. Will let you know how it works when I get it.
DLNA projectors?
I don't know if there are any DLNA projectors yet, but the tablet should be able to throw it's image to a DLNA projector, no?
