Hi,
I'm using slimrom for my SGS2, and the HDMI output is working, but only for videos. Anyone can tell me how to activate it in mirror mode, so I can see pictures and launcher on TV?
Thanks!

If you stay on that ROM, you can't. Currently, all AOKP/AOSP ROMs have this issue. You'll only get this working with Samsung stock ROMs and ROMs based on them

Bummer! That was not the kind of answer I was expecting
Any technical explanation why videos work but pictures don't?
Thanks!

I don't have one, sorry. You'd have to ask someone on Team Hacksung, or someone else more familiar with AOSP.
There are no available drivers that would work on AOSP/AOKP roms.

From what I've read/understand MHL/HDMI out support only works on Samsung-based ROMs. So are there any custom ROMs based on stock Samsung which have MHL/HDMI but are not as slow/sluggish as stock? I really liked CM9 when I tried it but was extremely disappointed by the lack of MHL (I use my phone a lot to watch streams/videos/youtube). So I guess I'm asking if there's anything like CM9 but with proper MHL?
Check Chameleon.

But it's a tablet launcher, how will it help with MHL?
I'm talking about hybrid ROM.

Oh right, sorry I'm clueless. This ROM looks really promising! Going to install and test now, thanks for replying so quickly!
No problem, I helped before on polish LG forums, but now I'm here

Use any Stock based custom ROM.
Please correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it the Kernel that controls the MHL/HDMI output?
So even with a stock ROM if you have custom Kernel it won't work?
No. MHL is controlled by ROM.
Sounds to me like you're trying to disguise a best ROM thread.
By the way, MHL works fine on CM9 for hardware accelerated video playback.

Yep, that's true.
Thank you for letting me know
The only reason I have remained on stock kernel was because I was told that custom kernels dont work with MHL.
Does this mean I can Flash Siyah Kernel on my stock LP7 ROM and still use MHL output?
Any help would be much appreciated!
P.S Sorry for going off topic a bit
Cheers guys
Wasn't trying to disguise anything, I just didn't know of any stock-based ROMs since I'm pretty new and don't know how to search for them or what to look for. For anyone who's also clueless: to install chameleon you need to root your phone and install the zip from an external SD card (as in a microSD) using cwm.

Surely , I can suggest you a MHL HDMI website: www.hdgenius.com ,I believe that it can give you correct answer that you want to get !
Is there a way to fix the flipped camera (for some apps) on the Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 (YP-G1) while still being able to use the stock rom?
Uhh... anyone?
Seriously? Nobody has a fix for this?

I remembered that in the old CM7 days, using the US camera libs caused the camera to go flipped. However when using the Intl camera libs, the camera was in the right orientation. Perhaps you could try that to see if it'll work?
Btw sorry for taking so long to reply, I haven't seen that post.
Where would I obtain these libraries, and how would I install them?

Sorry that no one really addressed your question. The galaxy player dev community is kinda fading away since, well, the device is getting older and less practical, so there are less users. Anyways, see here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1848595
Also, if you're still on gingerbread, you may just want to flash the REDD rom. Check it out. That personally gave me the best gingerbread experience. Of course, cm9 and later in my opinion are all better.
Oh my god... this worked.... THIS ACTUALLY WORKED! THANK YOU!!

the s2 has wifi direct, but also in AOSP 4.4.2 kitkat roms?
Because I maybe want to buy the chromecast instead of a mhl cable. They have the same price, but with chromecast I can use the charger in my phone and with the mhl not always.
The chromecast works with wifi direct so yeah..

And why is AOSP not compatible.
Lib files or something like that, i didn't read to much into it as i don't use this. Google it. Its what I do when I want to know something.

I use my Chromecast and AOSP roms together all the time; Youtube doesn't care what ROM you use. «Cast Screen» inside the settings app under «display» is only realistically working on N5's.

Did you try any other ROMs?
Not really that uncommon. Especially if you are using a CM version that is higher than anything Samsung released for your phone. Trying to make some of the proprietary libs and drivers work on non Samsung software can be difficult for even the most experienced developers to sometimes not even possible so they have to use work arounds and open source stuff that doesn't always work the same. You can try some other camera apps that might be better like Camera Next or Open Camera.

Hello guys, I'm new.
I have decided to reuse my old Note 1 as a video surveillance device to output to a monitor using TinyCam Pro.
I already flashed this with the latest Quincyatt and got it all working great, EXCEPT that MHL does not work on this build it seems.
From what I can gather from reading the forums so far, only ROMs based on STOCK have MHL working?
If this is the case, can anyone recommend me the leanest, most battery optimized ROM that has MHL working and which I can have Play Store enabled to download and get TinyCam Pro working?
Thanks a million.

If you are only using MHL then I would probably go back to a lite gingerbread (Saurom) or ice cream sandwich (Only One Goldie) rather then Jelly Bean (Custom Canadian or Blackstar Blackjelly). Also my mhl adapter has pass through charging which you will likely need anyway so battery life isn't a big deal.

Hey there, appreciate the information on which builds to try.
I'll try them out and see where it leads.
Wish they could figure out how to enable MHL on the Quincyatt build, that would have been perfect.
thanks,

Use the thanks button please.
Which rom specifically were you using? All builds for the i717 are quincyatt. It's the codename for the device.

Hey there, thanks for the tips and yes I clicked on the thanks button
I used the official Candy 5 rom located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-att/development/rom-t3040558
Going to try the ones you are suggesting today or tomorrow.
thanks again!
Unfortunately after a bit of searching it looks like the Saurom mod is no longer supported and the official thread's download links do not work.
I also could not find a reference for Goldie except the Beta 5? version which looked dubious after I read toward the end that the developer tried to jack someone else's mod and claim it for himself.
Ah well, I guess I'll try some stock mods and see if that will do.

Hey just wanted to say I was successful making MHL and everything else work with CM9 mod stable, Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) - woot!
Everything is humming along well and now I got a low-power, video surveillance system haha!
Anyways, thanks again for all the help.

ok I spoke too soon.
Apparently this one doesn't seem to support the "fast charging" feature and I am running out of battery, albeit slow drainage, when using MHL and charging at the same time.
Need to look for a mod that has the fixed "fast charging" feature for usb.

Hey btw, you said you have MHL working on your phone? Which mod are you using and do you have fast charging working as well?
thanks again!
I've been looking scouring the entire forums and can't seem to find a mod that can do both "fast charging" and "mhl" on the note i7i7.

Running a stock based rom you don't need any mod. Just an mhl adapter. Just be wary of roms that say they have removed all the Samsung bloat. Mhl apparently needs some of it.
