Anyone tested if the issue with 5.1 audio routing only to left speaker over HDMI is fixed in the ICS update? I was wondering if someone tested this with a home theatre receiver for true 5.1 surround.
I'll give this a go tonight (Aus time). So within the next 9 or 10 hours.
Have a Denon AVR2311. (I was experiencing the issue with FW .27, havn't tried since)
Just tried it now when I first test out my HDMI it was pretty bad I unplug it haven't plug it in till now. So far it seems pretty good but it might just be either the video I was playing before was bad or my TV speakers aren't as good as my PC speakers.
Did not work for me.. HDMI to my Anthem MRX 700
Tried 2 5.1 audio movies (avatar,Saving Private Ryan) also a 5.1 audio clip did not work also.
HDMI is now playing on all channels for me on my 2 year old LG lcd. Was only getting left channel before the ICS upgrade, so that's super good news!
Thanks guys! Giggles did you check if the player you are using in ICS affecting sound? Also want to bump this up for more test results from ppl having home theatre receivers.
HDMI out was working fine for me prior to ICS, but I can't say I really noticed what sound type I was playing. Since ICS I get picture, but no sound. I tried with the same video that worked the other night, as well as with Riptide. Perfect picture but absolutely no audio.
Hi Xda forum, I just bought asus transformer prime. I was able to output Hdmi(Honeycomb) to my plasma tv in the afternoon, however after I've upgraded to ICS, my plasma tv could no longer even detect the hdmi output with my prime tablet. I replaced the cable with a new one and still nothing happens.
If I plug in nothing happens, no reaction from my tv and tablet.Please help.What should I do ?
I'm obligated to ask you to double check the input on your TV.

Yes, I did check the input on my tv. I was able to output my prime onto my tv in the afternoon (still running HC).
My experience was just the opposite. I have a Sony Bravia TV and the hdmi output was only playing through the left channel with Honeycomb, but after ICS it is partially fixed as now it plays stereo. I would like to see it be able to pass thru surround sound too (did you hear that ASUS?)
I had a similar experience except it only involves audio. HDMI out to my tv (then back into the amp) was absolutely fine under HC. Updating to ICS stopped the audio from working, although I can still see video. Not a huge issue for me as I can get audio over the headphone socket, but it is still annoying.
The cable I initially used was bought some time ago, but it works when I connect the Prime to a Sony HMZ. I'm wondering if the audio output format has changed and my tv or amp isn't recognizing it.
Can anyone confirm whether there are HDMI settings that can help myself and the OP. I *DID* see some settings once, but can't seem to find them again.

I have video with no audio as well. Didn't try on HC, only ICS.

Man, I was kinda looking forward to using this function. For the most part my Prime seems to be flawless. Any recommendations for a decent cable so I can give it a try and report back.
Not sure if you guys noticed but there has been an Asus rep here on our forums trying to help trouble shoot. Gary Key is his user name, maybe he could be made aware of the problem. He seems to have been extremely helpful thus far.

Maybe he can... but I don't know how they're going to address the rounded edge issue. That being, the micro HDMI feel very loose plugged in and it seems the physical port degrades also. It means that you can't use the tablet to play Rip Tide or whatever because the cord will fall out or port gets bent. And yes, I have a serial number Mr. Key.
The issue for me right now is the fact that my pioneer plasma pdp 435hdg tv can't detect the hdmi when connected to my prime. I tried it before I updated to ICS and it worked!...Very strange. Tried changing the cable and all no problem whatsoever.
My cable actually fits in very snuggly, not loose or anything.

What can I do ? I've emailed to asus support team but no reply yet.
Problems
HDMI out worked flawlessly for me with HC but after the ICS update my TV also cannot detect input, tried all 3 HDMI ports just comes up with no input.....
Notes: I used one TV under HC and a different one under ICS, could change outcome
ICS also gave me the diagonal flicker, occasional reboot, and sometimes auto-orientation will stop working.
Ahh you're facing the same issue as me. May I know what Brand is your tv,bro?
TVs
The one that worked on honeycomb was a Coby....fairly cheap one
THe other on that I tried to use but failed with ICS was LG
Mine's a Pioneer plasma.It was very shocking for me because it worked an hour ago in HC and after updating to ICS it can't even detect hdmi. Certain that it isn't a HW problem just a SW prob with ICS and certain Tv's. But no answer so far from Asus/ Google worries me.
I'm pretty sure I remember reading in a Mobile tech Review article that the Prime ICS has issues outputing 5.1 audio, and that only certain channels, 2 of 5 speakers and the bass came through. So I'm guessing it's a known issue that Asus needs to fix in an update.
Updates?
Anyone else having problems??? Any information regarding this problem from Asus yet?
going into the notifications and clicking on hdmi notification made it show up on my tv
I got a replacement order on mine, my wifi is sheet, and the HDMI doesn't work. I've tested the wire with 3 TV's(Vizio,Samsung,LG) got nothing. Had my buddy test his prime with the wire and kaboom it worked.
Id get it replaced.
firmware fix
I will test this weekend if it works with the new firmware that was released on the 18th...if anyone else who had problems can test before hand please do so
Tried with the new update but still doesn't show up on my tv.
I know our phones can do HDMI out through an MHL adapter, which I have and it works great, but I would like to know if they can do RCA out, the yellow, red, and white outputs. I want to hook it up to my car's touchscreen headunit which has those inputs, but obviously no HDMI. Do our phones have this capability using the usb or the 3.5 mm jack, like the original Galaxy S's, that I could use? Thanks.
I don't think so... There's a slight tiny possibility the headphone jack can do tvout, but there are no controls for it in Settings on any GSII - it probably isn't working.

Thanks Entropy. Yea since there isn't anything in the settings I figured it wouldn't work. I am going to try that cable anyway and I will report back.
Let us know if it works...I would love to be able to hook up to my 'older' sets and such with my GSII!
Any updates on this? I'm also interested in getting it to work with RCA composite.
Any help would be appreciated
Well I tried plugging my phone into the tv through a 3.5mm to RCA cable, and nothing. But, I also tried it with my Captivate running ICS and still nothing. My SGSII is on ICS as well, so maybe the function just wasn't built in to the software.
I'd also tried this on KK6 with no luck...
Not related to this phone but the iPod Videos had this option I believe. The Classic took the function out.
Fyi for anyone.

I can confirm that MHL to HDMI to RCA through a converter does work with our phones. But then I stumbled upon this...it looks promising.

Recently as of last night my audio jack on my phone wont work when i plug in my headphones or when i plug in my auxiliary cord from car.
It's like it doesn't recognize that i plug something into it because the audio still comes from the back of the speaker on my phone instead of transmitting through my headphones. Nothing happens at all when I plug them in.
I'm running the latest MIUI v4 release from the ported section.
All help is appreciated.
Try a q-tip and some alcohol to clean the port and use a small flashlight to see if you got a chunk of lint or something inside it.
If the port is clear, and alcohol does not help, sadly the port is borked, return to AT&T.
I'm not aware of any setting that might be off that would disable output, although I could certainly be wrong.
Did you change anything before this happened? New ROM? New Kernel, etc.
Nope. I was just using the newest MIUI with the stock kernel it has. It was working yesterday afternoon. All i did was charge it and then I noticed it stopped working after that. :/
Thanks your for help by the way

My guess would be a pin broke off inside the adapter on your phone, necessitating a warranty replacement. If alcohol did not help and you can't see anything in the hold blocking it, and music works on your phone it would appear to be a defective jack.
Miui seems to have broken headphone jacks on multiple different phones of mine, it could be a cause but I'm not sure. I just went and got mine replaced and didn't think about it.

Hello,
I'll be hooking up my tab in the car and I'm looking for a cable that will charge over USB and provide audio out in one.
I found this guy on Amazon but it only says it works with the original Tab.
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0054MV84Q/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=A36WKB83D3HR47
The video out is mirrored so I would just leave that part unplugged.
Does anyone have experience with this or something similar with the Tab 2?
Thanks!
I just ordered one. I'll give it a whirl and report back!
Be interesting to see how you get on, I'm in the process of mounting my P5110 in the car as well. I don't think the video would work anyway, but the audio should...
What bracket are you planning on using if you don't mind me asking?
I actually ended up making my own, a TV mount coupled with a gel case.
TV mount: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0044YMQIW/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00
Gel case: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009L7OMVG/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00
With a little modification, it worked out quite well.
I like this setup because I can easily reach the tablet to control Pandora, Stitcher, Maps, etc, and still swing it over for a passenger to watch Netflix or browse the web. If I can get this cord to work, I'll be set!

Has anyone had success with this on 10.1?

Got the cable in the mail today. I hooked it up and everything works as expected.
I can't speak for the video plug, but the audio works perfectly and the usb charges as expected. I couldn't be happier!

Very nice setup, and with the minimum of cables hanging out of the Tab.
I must order the same cable now that you confirmed that it works, and post a pic once I have it mounted in my car.
Currently my trusty i9000 handles all my in car android needs with Navigon etc.. time to upgrade.
I still need a way to attach the cable to the mount without it looking like junk, but since it splits close to the usb/av end of the cable, this shouldn't be too hard.
Definitely post some pics once you have yours set up.
Since this is mainly going to stay in the car, I also set up Tasker to perform a few tasks when the device gets power.
On power connect:
- Turn screen on (I believe this happens anyway though)
- Set brightness to auto
- Set screen timeout to 24hrs (There is also a function to keep the screen from turning off, but it still dims the screen close to the devices set timeout, which I find annoying)
- Play audio (if paused)
On power disconnect:
- Pause audio
- Set screen timeout to 2min
- Lock screen
Just some food for thought.
Looks great!

So we can get audio out thru the 30-pin connector? hows the sound quality vs. the headphone jack? i assume since it works for the 10.1 tab 2 it should work on the 7.0, would love for a nice single connection setup like that when I work out a way to do an in-dash setup once i figure out a way to relocate the AC controls.
edit: 500th post :highfive:
has anyone got this working on a galaxy tab 2 7.0 (p3110 pref)
ive bought 2 diffrent cables and neither has routed audio out via dock,
is there something i should be doing within android to enable dock mode or route audio out via the connector or will it do that automatically?
i really need audio to come out via the dock connector so i can charge and play audio out of the one cable.

The audio on the 30 pin is the same audio on the headphone jack....... its audio.
The only difference between the 10 and the 7 is that the 7 has no video on the 30 pin
I bought a similar cable as yours But I cant get it to work the audio wont out through the cable only on the device. Any setting that I should do? Could you please show me your set up? Thanks you.

Do you happen to know someone with the tab 2 7.0 that you can test that cable with? I'm thinking about ordering one but would like confirmation that it works. Not interested in video, just audio and charging.

If it works on the p-51xx it will work the same on the P31xx except no video on 31xx 2.7.0 tabs
the pinouts are exactly the same.
So, will this cable bring video out from p5100?
Did anybody tried it on p5100?
Thanks

CHeck the Samsung accessories page for the adapter, if it says its compatible it is, if its doesn't list your model its not.
Just curious here...I've been long considering taking my Galaxy Tab 2 7 inch apart and somehow fashioning a Double Din head unit out of it. But I'm a little skeptical now because:
If I'm reading this right, you guys are saying that only audio comes out of the USB connector thing? But that doesn't make sense to me because why wouldn't the audio sound, and video sound be handled the same way? It just seems like to me they would be essentially the same thing, but then again I'm not very tech on the software side so idk

From what I gather, your audio in whatever form will be carried through the 30-pin connection on the GTab7.0. The only difference in the pin connector from the GTab10.1 and GTab7.0 is that Samsung, in their infinite wisdom, omitted the video pin on the GTab7.0.
