[Q] Xperia P and Motorolla Lapdock - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hi,
i read that the laptop works with many other phones, such as the Xperia S. So i thought this wil work nicely. Well, it does not.
I tried some settups, i will write down my notes:
i tried pluging in, then open the screen (standart i think) and first opening then pluging in.
stock (root and wothout root, locked BL)
-HDMI connects sometimes (i franky dont get why it works when it works).
-USB OTG works (testet with lasermouse), but lapdock will give you "high Power drain" error sometimes, sometimes just nothing.
Brains V4 (locked BL, somethig is flashed wrong i got lot of reboots, i will see aout that)
-HDMI sometimes works,
-USB worked once (then freeze), somtimes "High Power", sometimes nothing. again no obvious reason
When HDMI is working it is not fullscrean (homescreen and Bravia).Top and bottom black bars. My guess is ist is the phones 540pix heigth and the length is just streched.
CM9 (FireDroid, locked BL)
-HDMI does not work,
-USB OTG does not work
Can you guys help me? And is there an application similar to the Moto WebTop? The Bravia eninge is made for "Couch-Control" and not the LapDock.

nobody using hdmi and/or usb-otg?

Nope.... Anyone? ??

[Q] Microsoft USB Wireless Keyboard freezing tablet, but Logitech works?

Whenever I plug in my 2.4 Ghz wireless USB adapter for my Microsoft Wireless Desktop 800 with this USB adapter from eBay, my tablet pops up two notifications of "USB device connected" then disappears. On the third, it freezes and can only be fixed with a hard reset (hold power button for 7 seconds).
I don't have any issues with plugging in a wireless adapter for a wired USB Microsoft mouse, wired USB DELL keyboard, and a wireless USB adapter for the Logitech MK250.
I'm using Overcome 2.1.1 and Pershoot 2.6.36.4 on the P7500.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Bump. Any ideas would be appreciated
Have you tried to see if this occurs on kang build? Overcome is great, but it's been AGES since their last update.
Thanks Misledz. Is there a non-ICS version of KANG? There still seem to be a few glitches:
Not working:
- Camera
- WiFi Direct
Bugs:
- For auto-brightness to work, lock/unlock the screen once.
- Searching for network providers doesn't work.
- Charging+freezing issues.
Huh Wifi detect works great? It works fine for me even under hotspots.
They fixed all that in the recent builds, its at #28 now with 90% of them etched out, the camera mod may be back soon, then again, who uses the tablet for its camera?

i use the front facing camera for skype calls, which is really useful. you say there is a mod for the camera to work?
OH then again Skype being the main reason, I assumed it was for something else like wildlife photography or something of the sort. Overcome has yet to come with something, but if this bother's you, have you tried out other ROMs then?
This assuming you would like to keep your camera and adhoc intact

i feel stupid as well, ls hdmi is also in wet dream and i have no idea how to use it, any help here guys?
There's no switch for turning it on and off.
Literally plug it in to your TV via HDMI, switch to that input on the TV and it should display your phone. Mine sometimes goes odd if I start mirroring in Landscape, but turning it to portrait and back again fixes this.
If you want sound over HDMI there are two little scripts in the same place as the supercharger script one for toggling sound over HDMI and one for toggling sound from your phone. They need to be run as root using script manager.
Just a quick note (on Wet Dream, anyway): even after plugging in the HDMI cable, nothing activates on my phone until the TV input is switched over. That's when the Picker launches.
At my side on Neutrino,
I have play with the sound output switch and now it works... Can't explain.
Now I'd like to know how to incerase the HDMI output resolution, it's so pixelized...
Any idea ?
Works great on Neutrino Rom 2.2 with faux kernel.
The only issue is that the sound have to set manually on and off.
And some games (Reckless Racing 2) doesn't run on the Atrix with high fps and that is a little bit disappointing because I can't enjoy games in slow motion.
But everything else works fine!
Motorola Atrix 4G AT&T unlocked
ya the output for me is a little to large as well and a little grainy. i wish there was the overscan fix, but i was told in the neutrino forum that hdmi mirror (ls or not) is not native to cm7 so it's a work in progress
Good news:

XMP: Strange hardware problem with JACK

Hi there,
I've got really strange problem with my XPERIA MINI PRO - when I plug in the headphones, the phone wouldn't recognize them.
Only if I've had them plugged before BOOT of my phone.
So, when Iam turning on / rebooting my phone with plugged phones, they're working and recognized, but when I disconnect them, same problem -> phone ignores it.
So, my xperia mini pro can't recognize the action of plugging in phones in general. Have tried official kernel, custom kernel, few roms and its deffinitely a hardware problem.
Does anyone knows how does this phone recognize that? And what might be my problem?
Thanx for any ideas.

i have a similar problem on mine, but mine thinks it has headphones plugged it all the time! i downloaded an app called "headset toggle" it gives you a widget on your home screen to show if headphones are connected or not, and clicking on the icon forces a connect or disconnect of them regardless of wether they are connected or not, should fix your problem:

edit: just to add i have 4.0.4 and it works perfect on my phone
Headset not recognising
i am facing the similar problem...... my headset is also not detecting when i plug in, detecting only when i reset my phone and when i unplug again it's not detecting. i face this problem since i update my mobile to latest version (ICS 4.0.4)

Hello,
I had the exact same problem. It was a hardware problem. The only way is to take it in for service as I did. was repaired at electronics level.
Is it possible to solve this problem with headphones? Any app? Toggleheadset does not work for me. Thanks

did you use a SE headphone or a normal headphone?
i got similar problem. If jack isnt plugged in, there are some electronical noises in microphone, so i cant use, if i remove jack, the phone doesnt recognize. i ToggleHeadset, now microphone works good, and recognized that i removed the jack
what hardware causes this problem? i ask it because i bring my mini pro friday to the service, and maybe i'll ask about it there for repair.

This is a halfway software solution to make the phone work, for a complete repair i believe taking the phone to service is necessary.
I have a hardware problem where xperia mini pro (Stock Rom ICS 4.0.4) is constantly detecting headphones connecting and disconnecting. This stops all the multimedia with sound, so it was impossible to start a music file or video because it was automaticly paused).
Disabling the Live ware app (connect now app) did not help,
This may not work for people who can not make phone play music or videos after headphones are inserted,
I managed to solve problem with software and by inserting headphones in the jack once every boot.
You need 2 apps; soundabout and toggleheadset2 (widget),
soundabout does not need to be registered), you will just need to set soundabout service to run on every boot, and set the 'media audio' output to speaker by default.
Every time phone is booted or rebooted insert the headphones, then play a song, remove the headphones and toggle headset to off, every time you wish to use the headphones you will need to toggle the headset widget to on manually,
i recommend to have phone calls and messages also set to vibrate in case you forget to toggle after unplugging the headphones.
I have not yet managed to get working the headset microphone,
If the headphones work in iPhone they wont work in Xperia mini pro or arcs or 2011 device , u need JVC gummy plus , they come with adaptor to sort the problem

There is 2 headphone and Mic standards omtp and cita and only one headphone standard, older Xperia used a differnt standard to what they use today , everyone jumped on the iPhone standard

Chromecast not working at all

So, today I bought a Chromecast (2. Gen). At home, I connected it to my TV (Sony Bravia KDL 40EX727) and tried to set up - but without success. All I got was a black screen (nothing appeared at all). At the Chromecast itself, directly after plugging ac power, the status led turns constant organge for about 0.5 sec and then switches to constant white. And that's it.
I started to research and found some points I struggle about:
- Some users reported unresolved issues with Sony TVs. Can I find a list of supported devices somewhere?
- I tried to reset my Chromecast. I followed the instructions (push the reset button while HDMI is plugged in the TV). Actually, nothing happened. The LED keeps on illuminating constantly white (still not blinking). Google's instructions tell me, that it should turn orange (blinking) and after the successfull reset it should return to a white color. So as you see, nothing at all happens.
- I tried all HDMI ports - no difference
- I tried different USB cables and powering it from USB and from AC - no difference
- I tried turning it on without beeing connected and with beeing connected - no difference.
What else to do?
- tomorrow, I will take it to work and connect it the HDMI port and my computers display (unfortunately, I have no second screen with HDMI at home, neither an adapter from DVI to HDMI or something similar..)
Do you have any hints for? Or is my device just broken?
Thanks in advance!
Problem solved: Device was defective. I exchanged it in the store where I bought it for a different one: works like a charm.
