Anyone know if there is a ROM out there for our lovely tablet where HDMI audio for 5.1 or even multichannel works at all?
I've been using stock since ICS came about. It sucks as they have not resolved this matter. It worked fine with Honeycomb.
Anyway, I don't feel like flashing a bunch of ROM's at this point unless it appears promising. Input very much welcome and appreciated.
Thanks all.

I was wondering how difficult it would be to have the audio from my TouchPad be played through my desktop's 5.1 setup? I'd like to be able to watch a movie/show on my TouchPad in bed, but instead have the sound come through my speakers. Also might be nice if someone could provide a link for a cheap, good quality bluetooth dongle that supports A2DP.
Thanks
am i getting a lack of response because this is trivial to do?... maybe no one else interested in doing this?.... cant be done?
the problem is the by stack HP used when developing the touch. It is extremely limited and as far as I know there's been little to no success with manipulating it
is that a hardware limitation or something that would be possible once we see android on our touchpads?
I use a2dp to my old Belkin Tunestage and it works great...

Ive search high and low on xda developers to find a rom with a aosp bluetooth stack and mhl cable support. My plan is to use the Sixaxis Controller app with the mhl cable but so far ive only been able to find roms that do only one of those functions.
Also is there anyway to install a new bluetooth stack and the Original XXKG firmwares.
Would appreciate any help.
Device: Samsung Galaxy S2, Running MIUI.
That's something many gamers wish... but after a few months without any luck I think the only way is to buy a specific gamepad like phonejoy, etc. as long as CM (and MIUI consequently) doesn't support mhl yet. And maybe never...
The cool thing could be something like you are talking: someone making a stock rom but with aosp bluetooth drivers instead of samsung ones
Edit: I write from the complete ignorance, and don't know if it's easy to do or even possible. Please excuse me if i'm saying something stupid
I too am wondering
If one could just copy the AOSP bluetooth over the stock roms we would have the best of both worlds
The bluetooth stack in Cyanogenmod 7 works with sixaxis. I used my ps3 controller to play my emulated games.
Although I do perfer non-aosp, as the kernel/rom selection is better and the touchwiz apps are better (IMO) . I cant live without fm radio.
If any devs could add find a way to get the aosp bluetooth stack on a non aosp rom, we would all be very grateful.
I want to bump/1 up this thread
I am using lite'ning rom 6.1 and I really love this rom, but at the same time I want to be able to use my ps3 controller so thumbs up for anyone who can do this, even information on how to or why it's not currently done would be nice, my brother knows a bit about programming if we knew where to look maybe we could try to do it ourselves. I really want to see this done. I know it's possible somehow!
I have a rooted Evo 3d, and I want to play games with my wiimote and watch on my TV.
Sense is doing the MHL out just fine, but doesn't support pairing up with bluetooth devices. http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-3d/379006-wii-remote-evo-3d.html
I did find this, but it looks like it never got launched... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS4h1Z2nKHw
So I'm wondering if there is another ROM out there that would...
From what I understand I need an ASOP rom.
From my research, it looks like CM7 doesn't support MHL out. http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/36885-cm7-alpha3-known-issues/
Is there something I'm missing? Does anyone know of a work around?
Would love to know this as well.

Sorry if this topic has been done to death, but do any of the ICS versions for the G-Tablet have working HDMI audio, through the dock or otherwise? It's the one feature remaining that I'd really like to have for TV viewing (I suppose I can run analog audio-out to my receiver), This is not meant as a knock against the developers who are working hard to keep the G-Tablet viable, but could you give us an ETA for HDMI audio, or should I start looking at other options? Thanks.

just an FYI that there is a JB ROM for the Gtab that now outputs both Audio and Video via HDMI.
Check out Smooth JB in development.

Thanks. I've been using it for several days now and HDMI audio and video both work well. Thanks to nobe1976 for getting it done.

Currently working on Smooth ICS to see about getting it to work on it as well. Thanks for the props.
qith smooth bean ics yes hdmi audio works
Hi Guys,
as I'm thinking of getting a new phone sooner or later, I was thinking how to use my Atrix and my Multimedia-Dock later on.
I never used the Lapdock mode or HDMI mirroring, but I bought the multimedia dock because it was really cheap and I can use my Atrix as a digital clock also.
So please forgive me if I'm asking questions that only work with the lapdock mode
My idea is:
I want to use the Atrix as a media-station for music (on storage and streaming).
As the multimedia dock as a 3,5mm line-out, I thought this might work. I'm on MIUI V5 with JB right now and just plugging in something in the 3,5mm line-out won't let me listen to any music, as I guess this line-out only works in lapdock-mode, because it will get the audio signal from HDMI (?).
I want to know if this might work with any rom that supports lapdock, because for the functions I want, I don't need the newest Android with the latest features.
Another function that would be awesome is to pair the Atrix via Bluetooth with other devices so the Atrix can play music via BT from other devices. Is this possible, too?
Like: Music on new phone --> BT --> Atrix connected to speakers plays music.
If there are any threats like this already, I'm really sorry, but a quick search didn't give me any results
Thanks!
P.s.: Can I put USB-storage on the multimedia dock when the Atrix is in lapdock mdoe?
Indeed, you need to go back to gb or atrics to fully use the hd dock.
You can connect any pendrive to those usb, phone will mount them.
Not sure about bt. Guess is possible

Thanks for the quick reply! Going back to gb won't be the problem

I recently received back an Atrix that I purchased on behalf of a friend sometime ago. I also figured it could perhaps be of use at the mother-in-laws when my son is there. I have another account with xda though it has been so long since I used the forum to post that I could not remember my username! So I just clicked to log in via G+. Its been great seeing that such an old (at least in terms of android developement) device has still got some very good support and excellent contributers. Before my Nexus4 I had a Galaxy S and that got flashed regular from the great work that goes on here.
It didn't take much reading to work out that Atrics looked as if it would suit my needs best for some simple internet use and perhaps media viewing on the Bravia the phone will be hooked to. I am hoping I may also find an XBMC build that will be stable enough to enhance the system! So today I found the time to get the basic Atrics 2.0 up and running, One or two little bugs too work out but am sure they will have been covered already. Installed FlashFox browser to make sure flash works without any hassles and just completed a rom backup and upgrade of the kernel to 14-02-05. The difference is noticeable straight away Krystian, good work.
I'll try to keep up with my project and how it goes. How is your project working out muhski?
Thanks again to just about everyone within this forum who has posted, I narrowed initial problems down quickly due to the very useful guides and information
setup restrictions
So I set up everything up nicely using the atrics ROM. Due to the TV and setup at the mother in laws, using the stereo out on the dock was not viable. This forced me to roll back to Nottatrix4g for a quick fix of using the HDMI to pass sound as well as audio. As a result I have a nice portable setup which will reside at the mother in laws for my son to use and perhaps his grandad too. I kept the ROM install as slim as possible without removing any functionality that may be required if we take the system on holiday for example. I installed several addons in xbmc and went through each to check the ones that wouldn't work easily for example asking for an external player, (the ones that did work easily all diverted to mxplayer). I added both Firefox and dolphin for flash based browsing, a couple of the games he plays on my Nexus 4 and an emulator to play the games I still have from the NES. The emulator is tied into wiimote for an easier experience for him although I would have preferred a more manageable pad but since that's as good as free.
So the the real test will start tomorrow, my main concern would be the system recovering from any crashes but up to now with the exception of xbmc occasionally closing, I have only had one issue with Bluetooth and the mouse showing paired but not. I deleted the db and that resolved the issue which I was unable to replicate.
So my experience would be to tell you if a similar project was looked at, check your hardware and see how the audio can connect best. If you can only do audio with HDMI stay on 2.x.x ROM, if you can stereo from the dock into the TV by RCA's or an amplifier you can use atrics ROM or a 2.x.x based ROM. Other than this you shouldn't need to spend too long finding a good use to a redundant Atrix.
The xbmc version came from xbmcandroid as the official xbmc does no longer support tegra² chips. If your reading this regarding a newer phone then the official version may suit you better.
Thanks to everyone who has made this possible I will try and name everyone and their apps in a review of the system in the hands of the young and the old in a week or two!

Did you ever get around to making the list of applications used in your media center build?
Also, does the remote control work with it?
