I would also like to play with this. I thought this would be hardware specific though? I don't think the software is the only puzzle piece when speaking of mirrorlink. If you find out it is not, it could be game-changing for the car scene.

I would love to know if this is just software or requires specific hardware in the phone too. I would LOVE to see MirrorLink baked into the OS itself so you can use the whole OS not just specific apps.

Hi guys, does any one know where the mirrorlink apk is located? ive got the sgs3 but cant find it anywhere in there...

The phone needs to be equipped with MHL. To my understanding, the S3 is the only Android phone currently equipped.

Actually, MHL and mirrorlink are different protocols, though there is similarities which makes it confusing
Mirror Link WIKI article.
Mirrorlink sits on top of existing protocols, so the real question is how do the two devices initiate the protocol, and how does the server start?

Tv output?

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.

Was unaware that the question had been posted before, better search harder next time before starting a thread.
Will not be looking into this further as it seems clear that it doesn't work. Thanks for the posts that have answered my question

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.

[Q] Webtop and WebDock on SGS2?

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.

My Response:
Maybe not.
Honest response:
Remember that the device needs to trigger something in the OS via a service which makes it work, that involves drivers which who knows if its going to be activated natively by the device or if the OS requires it.
My best bet is no, but I would love to be wrong.
Thank you very much for your comprehensive answer!
The one I have IS compatible. I have an MHL adapter from my friends Samsung Infuse 4G and it works flawlessly for my EVO 3D.
Thank you very much !

[Q] using phone for fax modem

is there any way to use your htc for a modem to send faxes? or is there an app? anything would help please!!
Thanks
I know that many phones had this functionality in the past, but I think that the platform that axed, but I will dig in and see what I can find that might help you. Can you give us more explanation about what you intend to do and maybe we can have more opinion about what you can and cant do?
Dear Megabiteg,
Can you remember how long it has been since mobile phones had fax functionality, and which models or brands has fax functionality?
Thanks,
Harry.

New to Samsung Galaxy S II

Hi!
I have just switched over to a Samsung Galaxy S II i9100T, which should be the same as the international one.
I want to start developing for this phone, but I don't know enough about this phone yet. My question is: Where can I find the full hardware specs of this phone, including all of the chips contained in the phone? By the chips, I mean every single chip inside the phone.
Another question is: Does this phone have a 3.4 kernel? If no, I would like to develop one, which is why I have asked for information above.
Thanks.
To develop for this phone you'd need to know programming, and developing for Linux environment, which I suppose you know very well.
There are pdf manuals for the i9100 floating online. Because this is Samsung technical literature I'm unable to post the link. Google "i9100 technical manual" and you shall find.

I have the service manual. Is that the technical manual you were talking about?
And, my other question was not answered: Does this phone have a 3.4 kernel?
Thanks.

You can check that by going to Settings -> About Phone/About Device, the kernel version is there
Unless you were talking about custom kernels, in which case I have no idea, sorry, not part of this forum

I know how to check kernel version. Therefore, I was asking about a custom kernel.

Yes, technical manual. Wiyh all the wiring, chipset, connectors and so on.
Well, it is really hard to find out the name of the chips in the phone.
