[Q] Slimport - Broken in 5.0.1 and 5.1 - Confirmation? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Can anyone confirm if they have a Slimport adapter working after getting 5.0.1 or 5.1 stock ROM on the Nexus 4?
My adapter worked perfectly before lollipop, but has been broken since. I have tried this on 2 different Nexus 4 now, both of which it did work on before the lollipop updates.
I was hoping 5.1 might fix it, but it still doesn't work.
With the adapter plugged in I get nothing at all output to the TV, if I plug the charger in (to the adapter) the phone charges, but still no output (I never needed the charger before)
Anyone confirm that Slimport does in fact work in Lollipop?

Goodness... I'm thinking about loading up a secondary 4.X.X ROM via MultiROM Manager just so I can SlimPort videos again. At all other times, I'd be using 5.1.1 though.
It's too bad updating breaks this feature. I'm guessing they feel not a whole lot of people use SlimPort to begin with.

LG G2 Slimport and GPS Issue

Hi All
I have a problem which I need some advice. I have a LG g2 and I am using a Slimport adapter.
If I start GPS without plugging into HDMI it works and finds sat quite quick.
Once I plug in HDMI after 10-30 seconds I loose GPS and it wont find it at all.
I have tried a cheap and expensive Slimport and have tried powering the Slimport as well but no difference.
I use my slimport to use with Appradio on my pioneer avh-8500bt. But I have tried it both in the car and at home on my tv i get the same problem. When using at home on my tv I do not need to power the Slimport but in car I have to otherwise i get no video.
Its like the slimport is causing some kind of interfernce or it turns off gps. I am using oem rom and phone is rooted. On android 4.4.2.
Any help is great as I am now stuck and would love to use GPS in the car!
Thanks

[Q] HDMI cable issues with s4

I recently bought 2 of this cable:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...0-20&m1k=vb_ac
which has an MHL connector for the phone on one end and an HDMI and usb connection for power on the other.
I have a rooted S4 (no custom roms, stock except for rooting) on verizon. I'm on 4.2.2
With both cables I cannot get the device to work. THere's no charging (using the standard samsung charger brick) and no video. I've tried both cables on multiple HDTVs (mine at home are 7 years old so I thought maybe a newer TV, but I Tried one at work as well). I tried rebooting the phone but that didn't work. Is there anything I need to do with the phone. THe reviews make it sound like the cable is plug and play.
Any thoughts?
Hello,
Seems that Galaxy S4 HDMI out works only with original Samsung MHL adapter

It's because you are rooted.
I unrooted and it still didn't work. I bit the bullet and ordered the samsung adapter for 30 bucks.

[Q] USB OTG with DAC or USB Audio on 5.1?

Are there any kernels that support either USB DAC's via OTG or USB Audio on 5.1 yet? My Behringer UCA-202 doesn't seem to work on 5.1.
I second this. It seems to be quite strange:
- It is working just fine on my nexus 10 with android 5.1, charge and usb play
- nexus 6 it doesn`t charge but plays just fine
- nexus 7 doesn`t charge and doesn`t play sound
Bought a DAC , sabre android, and was disappointed to find it doesn't work. Somebody made an issue saying no DACs work but it was closed with status:wrongforum, which seems off the mark: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=99031
Works with latest CM12 nightly.

[Q] AppRadio Unchained Reloaded with Galaxy S4

hi all, can someone please help out there that might help me deal with my situation.
I have a Pionner AVH-4100 NEX and am trying to get the AppRadio working between my Samsung S4 (Virgin Mobile CA SGH-I337M) running Version 5.0.1
I have rooted the phone and downloaded ARUR from Google Playstore and briefly tried it out but nothing was working any differently (as in not at all) than the then stock Pioneer Appradio, so i de-installed it.
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, not following the right steps or missing a piece. But I would thought that something would have changed on the HU with ARUR.
Connection settings are Other, HDMI. I am connected with HDMI cable to Samsung HDMI Adapter (et-h10fauwesta).
I have tried plugging the cable and adapter into my HDTV and get mirroring on the TV so I know the cable and adapter work.
I am in need of some ideas or steps I may have overlooked.
thanks

Verizon G2 VS980 and Slimport HDMI

Does anyone know if VS980 works with SlimPort adapter? I have a VS980 but I flashed it with T-Mobile custom firmware. I bought a cheap Slimport adapter from Amazon but it does not work. On the other hand, it works on my T-Mobile LG G4 (H811). So it is not clear to me whether it is the adapter or my G2's problem.
Answering my own question here. The G2 works fine with the same (Kanex) adapter. I took the clue from one of the Amazon review that this adapter needs a better HDMI cable. After swapping to a thicker HDMI cable, it just worked.
Update on update. It seems it is not related to the HDMI cable. I tried the old cable and it still works. It could be some security policy (I removed a certificate which prevents me from disabling screen lock)
