I'm looking as well, but I'm afraid no kernel currently implements it
I have read that KF1 support it,
Can anyone confirm?
same problem... newest lite'ning rom.. KE3 Kernel.... for the Galaxy 1 exist a app in the market but it dosent work for the SGS2.

That is false because the purpose of the app is to redirect media audio to the dock. Call audio is not redirected as well.
KF1 supports it? I'm on KG6 (VillainRom) and I won't change to KF until pulser updates the ROM.
Can someone confirm that?
I am looking for the same solution for (official) car dock AND desktop dock. All sounds go through line-out except calls which is kind of a stupid oversight by Samsung.
What I'd like is option to have all audio through the 'line-out' of the official docks
Option to have FM work via the same
Option to have the phone operate like a radio alarm when in the desktop dock
1 question though. My phone died on me tonight and when I got back to the car I put it in my dock which made it turn on right away. I got to input my pin, then I saw it was charging but it switched off and restarted and kept on going (off->on for 15secs-> off).. I figured it was because it was running out of battery faster than it was charging it - ridiculous since I wasn't doing anything with the phone. So I had to unplug the car charger cable from the back of the dock, put it in my dead phone for 5mins then replug everything in again.
Samsung needs to look into that seriously...
Edit: I'm running 2.3.4 XXKG5 atm
Where can I place clarification request from Samsung to support phone calls into the Dock?
I will donate 25$ to the one that will make it work
Anyone else ?
Not sure about $25 but I'd donate a few dollars if someone can make the voice and radio be passed through the usb line out while using the existing apps.
Who knows how long it will take Samsung to implement a feature which I am surprised doesn't already work.
I have used my phone connected through the headphone output to my car stereo and made phone calls using the car speakers for the voice feedback and the internal phone mic for my voice. And it worked really well with no echoing at all which surprised me. I thought with the added volume through the speakers that feedback issue would occur but it didn't appear so. Maybe the secondary mi helps with the eco cancellation.
this problem still persists with XWKI4 stock rom. call audio outputs fine through the headphone jack on the phone itself, but refuses to route through the dock. with all of other audio going fine through usb, i'm inclined to think that it's a bug and can be fixed.
And the problem is also present in XWKI8...
I'd also be more than happy to donate to any dev prepared to look into getting the call audio rooted through the line out. I've been reading into it a little bit and apparently it is likely to be something that can be changed with a modded kernel. Unfortunately I have no developer experience and wouldn't even know where to start.

OTG Cable & HDMI MHL Adapter

Ok i havent gotten my samsung galaxy player 5.0 yet but i am working on it i ran across these 2 amazing accessories. And i was wondering has anyone else tried this on there device. Let me know any info you may have
HDMI HHL Adapter
http://www.amazon.com/Menotek-Adapt...Sensation/dp/B005F9W6DU/ref=pd_bxgy_cps_img_b
OTG Cable
http://www.amazon.com/T-Flash-Adapter-Samsung-GT-i9100-GT-N7000/dp/B005FUNYSA/ref=pd_cp_e_1
As for the HDMI,
The Samsung galaxy player, dose not support tv out
No OTG support (yet). They recently ported it to the galaxy s, we might be able to get it to work at least on the 4.0, witch is pretty much identical from what I have seen. So far I have confirmed their partitions are mounted identically, they have the same CPU, and I think they might even have the same motherboard (both of them have "ro.board.platform=s5pc110" in build.prop, not sure if that is the MB or not). The 5.0 is a totally different story though...
OP, you should go for the korean version if you want the HDMI output.
This version also supports 1080p (the device is also in english), has 16 or 32gb, and I found something very amusing : the korean version is made in Korea, whereas all the other versions are made in China. I guess koreans only buy korean products, haha! But I couldn't tell if it's any better...
MHL is definitely not present in the 5.0 - I tried the adapter that came with my Infuse.
There's a chance it might support analog TVout via the headphone jack, but this is unknown and no one has tried it yet.

Hey entropy512, would you be willing to edit the settings.apk for the 4.0 U.S. version if I sent it to you, then someone with the right cable could see if the tvout works?
I have a TV out cable from my ipod 5g, if someone needs testing, i'm game
When I plug the cable into my headphone port, no picture shows up, however the audio dose not switch to headphones, it keeps playing through the speakers, so that must mean something...

Yep, it means that your headphone jack detector works.
Dang, I'm almost sure this has video out, at least the 4.0 since I think it even has the same MB as the gt-i9000! I sure wish I could smai edit the settings.apk so that the option would show up, but I've been looking for a good guide on doing so and have yet to find one. I havn't had time to just learn smali as I have school, so unless there is someone out there with a 4.0 (possibly 5.0 has TV out as well, but less likely) that knows how to smali edit, we're stuck.
If you want tvout settings to appear then all you should need to do is get a settings.apk from a gt-i9000 and load it. Make sure it is the same framework as the one that you are running eg. 2.3.5. The setting will show up but I have found that just having the setting there does nothing if the functionality is not there...
Let me know how it goes...
Sent from my YP-G70 using XDA App
Well, I asked for the apk two days ago on the gt-i9000 forum but no one ever responded. Guess I'll go bump the thread! I guess those galaxy s owners are to busy to help a poor galaxy player owner, lol!
FYI, You don't need to ask, all you need to do is download a full rom for gt-i9000 and pull the settings.apk out.
You can use "kitchen" to do this if it's an odin flash, if it's a CWM zip then just open this zip and extract it out...
Ya, I thought of that, my internet is really slow though, guess I'll start it and it will be done by tonight.
Well, I tried the settings.apk, but it fc when I select display, or any other menu. Any suggestions? I guess the real way to do it would be to smali edit the original, but I have no idea how to do so.
Well, I have a 5.0 and not a 4.0 and I'm using 2.3.6. In the 5.0, settings for tvout are not there. It's just not in the code. If I were you, I would use adb logcat to get the exception info to find out why the settings.apk is fc and go from there....
Eh, I think I might call it quits for now. I've got a busy month, so if someone wants to pick up where I left off, here is the apk someone gave me.

Why doesn't OTG work on the galaxy players? I thought it was standard in all android devices?
I think this player not support TV out?
There is a small chance it supports TV out via the 3.5mm jack. Someone needs to test it with a correct cable first, to confirm or deny.

Allshare Cast dongle DOA? *working one recieved*

So i finally recieved a allshare cast dongle. However no matter what i do it displays nothing on my tv (or a monitor i tried it with). I'm guessing its DOA, but i just wanted to hear if anyone have any tricks before i send it back...
*Update* Got a replacement. Works great, much better than the HTC media link HD. Fairly smooth without being perfect. Seems the picture is compressed quite a bit though. Running JB leak btw.
Allshare cast dongle don't work with custom roms I hope that, they fix it as soon as posible.

I know, which is why i went back to stock... But thats not the issue. I can connect and all, but nothing gets displayed... Not even the "welcome" screen seen in video previews...
Updated OP
Hmm... At home it works like crap... I suspect due to 2.4ghz congestion... However it should run on 5ghz, but there seems to be nowhere to check that :
Also the audio plays through the phone speaker... (Might be a JB problem though)
im getting the wireless allshare cast dongle here shortly....and i just wanted to know. will it work with all android phones? My note, Skyrocket, S3....and future use with my Note 2 ?
i dont think i will buy one if i can not use it down the line or with my other phones.

HDMI flicker / TV out

Hi guys, I am on the stock ICS rom and have tried a few other roms, IE cm10 and paranoid android, all of these roms have what seems to be hardware flicker, i have read people have got it working with a HC rom ? what are the solutions if any to this annoying issue? as i really want to use the TV out feature.
id also like to know if the RCA TV out cable suffers from the same issue?
thanks in advance for any help
By messing with the plugs i think i managed to solve this issue, it seems the HDMI needed a separate power socket to the one used for the TV, i am still not exactly sure why this has worked unless the is a power drainage issue, but it seems to work and thought id share.

[Q] USB DAC/audio

Hey, I've been through the forums searching out whether the i9100 has the capability to run its audio through a usb dac and have only come up with old and dead threads. This http://blog.jdslabs.com/?p=838 is saying that to utilize at lease their dacs you only have to either be compatible with usbaudioplayerpro or have a cyanogenmod rom (i'm guessing CM10/11). I've checked the compatibility list for the usbaudioplayer (http://www.extreamsd.com/USBAudioRecorderPRO/) and the i9100 isn't officially compatible because it has "No USB host mode" at term I think is synonymous with otg, and I've used an otg checker and my current setup (i9100 with http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...m-gt-i9100-resurrection-remix-v4-0-7-t1436854) has that capability. On top of this the resurrection remix 4.4.2 rom is based on CM11 and so that makes me think that it will have the usbaudio problem solved anyway. I hope that I haven't missed anything significant, and for those wondering, the reason I haven't posted this in the rr thread is that I need ten posts to post there. Hopefully someone can confirm that this is now possible so that I, and others interested can go about buying usb dacs to bypass the shoddy yamaha internal dac.
tldr; is it now possible to run a usb dac on the i9100 using the new kitkat roms (specifically http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...m-gt-i9100-resurrection-remix-v4-0-7-t1436854).
Thanks,
Luke
TL;DR = no.

I've seen that you have always been on the answer end of these threads, hopefully you can tell me why this really is and what steve kondik's work has done for the situation as I've read that he solved the problem for CM (an idea backed up by the original link i posted). Why has his contribution made the difference on other models but not this one? So it's a hardware issue or? Sorry if you just end up repeating yourself but it's not quite making sense.
Thanks,
Luke
I've been on the answer ends on a lot of these threads because for the two yrs I used my S2 (I don't anymore), I was very keen to have USB DAC functionality for myself if it was possible. Yes, everyone is aware of what he's been able to do, but it isn't possible with this device due to hardware limitations.
Trust me, if it was possible, it would have been done by now, as you know you're not exactly the first person who would like this to work.
Edit - It hasn't solved the problem for CM period, it's solved the problem for a number of devices. If you don't believe me, flash CM & see if you can get it to work.
Sorry for the thread resurrection... I happend to browse across the following, which looks promising:
- Galaxy S2 DIY Car Dock with USB audio output (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skgEKS4uzWA)
- [HOWTO] Enable the car dock external audio without Samsung's Home apps by TheBeano (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=980937)
- Fun with resistors (home/car dock mode + more) by TheBeano (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=820275)
I am also kinda interested in this.
So far it seems that my headset is being detected by my s2 running pac rom.
There is still no sound output.
I would say it is because the lack of usb audio drivers in our devices.
All that is needed is to compile the snd_usb_audio.ko module and load it.
From there on, I assume android can handle it well enough.
Otherwise we can use alsa directly.
Edit: After loading the module, sound works (from chroot) but I don't know how to tell android to output to the headset.

Hi ruleh, can you try this trial app 'USB Audio Player PRO' to test if it works? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.usbaudioplayerpro
You can find the trial link in the app description section.
Do let us know your findings.

I will look at this at some point after I get my kernel sorted out.
(probably this week)
--- edit ---
after a few more staring at the item (as item gallery does not have better view perspectives), i could be wrong... ha. i'll update back once i have more details ya.
--- end ---
i found this cable, "USB 2.0 Adapter Splitter to micro usb 5pin + Car Aux Stereo Jack audio 3.5mm" - http://www.wish.com/geek/m/c/552f5808563a980bffe08ae8, which allow phone to go into "car mode"... i have yet to try, but i believe with this, you no need to diy your own as mentioned in my previous post; and it seems that you only need to rewire the 3.5mm audio jack to the usb male connector...?
ha. my two cents.
