Looking for HTC Titan compatible AV cable. I looked around to see if there is any possibilites for such a cable, but I don't see one. Is it still possible to use a 3rd party one and just get it to work?
I've seen the Android phones have TV out and see how they are able to mirror the screen to the TV, and I'd like the same possibilities.
Also, MS used it for their conferences, I know that they are using special phones, but wouldn't you think it would still be possible?
Thanks!
I'd also be interested, way to think outside the box man!!!

You have to get a microusb to hdmi for it though. If you try it, report on how it works.

So ya I want to know what is the best 2.1 ROM for htc hero out there right now??
That's like asking what the best car is...
You need to test drive them yourself to figure that out

Maybe you could see in the Hero CDMA forum?!? Here!!!!! Doesn't hurt to do a little search, you know
It also doesn't hurt to provide a little direction to somebody without being snide about it! Normally I search myself - but you never know exactly how busy the asking the question is. If I told you all I've been doing just this weekend your head would explode.
Thanks for the pointer. Next time try doing it a bit more kindly.
Usually I'm not that difficult when people ask questions. But when it seems like they haven't tried to search for minimum five minutes, I can be a bit rude. Especially about questions like yours, where the answer is so obvious.
Indeed and I'm the same way so really, I do understand. But what you don't understand or haven't acknowledged, is that while I usually search for answers I've been totally swamped with my new multimedia laptop between working in Windows 7 and trying to get Ubuntu 9.10 to do what Windows 7 just seems to do seemlessly (fingerprint scanner - Windows? Check? Ubuntu, no driver. Bluetooth? Windows - just works; Ubuntu no go (go after reboot), Windows Media Center hook up to HDTV? Piece of cake. Ubuntu - can't display on both at the same time. Plus on Ubuntu the sound is not sent out the HDMI cable. Sound on Ubuntu? Mono! Windows? 5.1. Windows responds seemlessly to IR remote - Ubuntu? Doesn't know it's there!!!). The thought of reburning my phone right now is a bit too much for this weekend. Plus I've found a few threads where there's mention of 2.1 for Hero and I queried "Does that work on CDMA" only to hear silence. If I dropped the other 20 things I'm doing right now and concentrated on this then I'm sure you'd find I'd be up to your standards.
This all could be labeled "Hey dude - cut me some slack will ya?".
Back to the laptop, mediaserver issues...
It's okay. Good luck with your setting-up-ubuntu-project! I've been there myself!
Does anybody know if a mini usb to tv out cable will work on g1? I don't know much about these cables and would like to know if the cable will work by just simply plugging it in. Or if additional software would be required.
Any info would be a great help as I hope to use 1 of these cables for a tv streaming app.

Sorry, about duplicated Thread about the G1 TV out that was already post before, but this website below fuel my curiosity and probably was misleading about the ability to broadcast video. Thought maybe HTC created a cable that enable many HTC device that don't have the TV-out to a capable function and I know it more in the hardware, but the software/drivers support too. It also seem it more supported in a Winmo OS device then Andriod OS.

To make it clear once more, there's no TVout on G1 (a.k.a HTC Dream).
The physical connection to the signals of the chipset is missing and additionally there's not software to support this part of hardware.
HTC devices with TVout feature, deliver the dedicated signals on some of the pins at the extUSB connector.
The adaptor you pointed at, is a simple cable with some passive elements inside (e.g. filter) to attach to extUSB connector and match it to the input of the TV set.

From what I've seen Galaxy S is th only phone with Bluetooth 3.0..
I'm just curious as to what this will bring to the table that other phones will not be able to...
I hope there are some nifty bluetooth gadgets in production for our vibrant!
faster data transfer through bluetooth.
You will be prevented from using the Ryan Frawley's Wiimote App! Congratulations on your bluetooth 3.0 phone!
(And to provide at least some helpful information, he has not responded to any questions about the galaxy s line, our future froyo update may fix this for us).
@PathogenX, Yes I knew that...
@SquareBare yes i'm also aware of that.. i'll just have to wait... i'm liking the multi touch control... which works perfectly so i don't mind waiting til froyo to see what happends ...
i guess i was looking to see if this will mean video streaming or something... i think i saw an article like that b4.. but can't remember
anyways Thank you both for ur fast replies ...!!
The SGS family is the only smartphones in the world (if i'm not mistaken) to have BT 3.0. Okay, the Samsung Wave had it first.

Well, more of the blame lies on samsung than Mr. Frawley.
I read somewhere on these forums that Samsung implemented the bluetooth standard in a somewhat bizarre way. Kind of like how you have to swap wires around when you are connecting the video cable to your TV.
From what I see though, Samsung has acknowledged the issue and will correct it with the upcoming froyo update.

Samsung gets the blame for using the latest technology? How does that work?
I read in a press release from January of last year that the two main features of 3.0 is faster transfer and better battery life. In addition there is suppose to be some security enhancements.
It uses 802.11 to transfer the files like wifi does to transfer files to and from you phone.
http://www.gsmarena.com/bluetooth_30_specs_revealed_goes_up_to_11_thanks_to_80211-news-885.php
This isn't the article that I found before but this is one from the source.
http://www.bluetooth.com/English/Press/Pages/PressReleasesDetail.aspx?ID=16
The article I seen explained the bt/wifi thing better and said that bt 4.0 should be out by the end of this year.
Is there a way to use the USB plug from the hd2 and plug it into a USB hub which in turn you can plug in a keyboard, mouse, or other device with the correct driver. This would open up possibilities for video out, card reader transfers, and many other very useful things. It can communicate with a ps3 and a PC, why wouldn't this work?

THIS IS THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION, DONT POST NEW THREADS!.
this should be posted in general, NOT development.
...and that doesnt mean make a new thread there. just wait for a mod to move this one. and DONT POST HERE AGAIN. please.
thank you....
hi i like cookies
if you used a powered hub (one that gets power from another source besides the phone) then yes it will work with many USB devices such as mice and keyboards, if you boot the phone into UBUNTU.

USB host is a reality for our HD2s but thisa post is in the wrong place, go to the correct place and im sure answers will flow,
usb host was essential during the development of a working linux build, remember the pics Dcordes posted back in may with his hd2 sat in the numerical keypad

Hello
I bought SGS2 after a long hesitation. I was wondering about buying Motorola Atrix2 due to the Webtop and WebDock.
I wonder if it is possible to port this feature on our SGS2?

I suspect that's going to be a negative. The SGS2 lacks the necessary hardware.
The Atrix can do this because it has little metal contacts on the outside of the device, that enable the communication with external hardware. The SGS2 only has USB.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions &
Read the Forum Rules Ref Posting
Moving to Q&A
You can output display via the MHL, or use the USB port, but can't do both at the same time. So not possible to port this exact lapdock.
You have a couple possible options though.
1- output display via MHL and use bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo
2- output display via DLNA and use USB OTG keyboard/mouse combo
To be honest, I'm not even really sure if option 2 is viable or not. I've not tried outputting my display via DLNA at all yet. So I don't know if this works.
connection to a monitor / TV is not a problem. What I want is the ability to run systems based on Linux like on Atrix.

You haven't been so clear about your question.
The Atrix can plug into a webtop, this laptop-like dock, yeah? Then the webtop is running off of software that's actually running on the phone.
This is not and will not be possible with the SGS2 without heavy modification, and I mean heavy...way beyond my skill set and I've taken a few cell phones apart to replace faulty parts.
If you just want to be able to run a Linux ROM...chances are good. Android is Linux based, but I'm guessing you want something a bit more purist, like one of the 'buntu's...I didn't find anything about this on the interwebs, but you should be able to google just as well as I can.
If that was your question, what the hell does that have to do with the webtop/webdock stated in the OP?
I just found something that gives similar possibilities - I have not tested it yet but looks promising - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390351

Your English wasn't the problem, it seems pretty good actually, but in the OP you seemed to be asking about connecting to hardware. That was a little misleading.
No worries.
