i don't know why no body interested in getting streak to do full mirroring or to make full output possible . it's amazing device with unique design .can any body tell why there is no developer want to do that for the streak. is it impossible ? is it matter of money ?
what is more important than this update.
thank you if you could please just tell me WHY
Peterin.... I feel your pain and have pondered this same conundrum myself.... It would appear that, at least among developers, it's a much, much bigger priority to develop sort-of-flakey, non-standard ROMS that will give the Streak a millinanosecond faster clock speed, and then call for an "all hands on deck" SoS to try and get all other developers to fix the bugs in the aforementioned ROM....
Lower priorities are assigned to things that the Streak is actually supposed to do out of the box. I actually read, on this very site, someone had developed a ROM that would enable an HTC product to run at twice the rated processor clock speed without completely draining the battery in the first hour of use..... now the actual phone radio would no longer work, but that seemed like a minor annoyance.... INCREDIBLE!! Brings to mind something I hear on occasion, "Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play"?

Someone can correct me if i am wrong, but HDMI functionality has been broken since the official Froyo 2.1 release of Android for the Streak.

I would guess it's because nobody spent the money on the $40 home dock... or: nobody is using the puny 32 GB of SD card space on movies... and since there's no reliable app for streaming video from home PCs to phone, we're better off plugging our computers into TVs for now.
I'm also curious? Did dell break their own phone's functionality with an update?

if you'd bothered searching, you'd find out that this exact thing has been questioned many times and its just not possible with the Streak's chipset. It can stream video with the stock roxio player and dock, but full mirroring is, sadly, not possible
thanks
Thank you guys for answering my question but i have to say i'm just disappointed, there is no solution for this issue i searched many sites but unfortunately no come out .thanks any way i'm sad for this
I found this cable: http://focuslink.en.alibaba.com/pro...le_Digital_Media_Interface_to_HDMI_cable.html
maybe direct mirroring possibilities!!!!
The cable doesnt matter at all as it's basically the multimedia dock but turned into a cable.
The S5 can only currently output video and audio though the stock gallery and music player respectively.
Bought the HP printer that came with the Zeen because it seemed like a good idea.
its a not so bad setup that would be much better with a more capable tablet. the Zeen is a flaming turd.
I'd like to port the specific apps first to my old Nook Color making it a dedicated device.
I'm not a total n00b to Linux, command line, and hacking some Android but this is much more .
ideas and help on accomplishing this is appreciated.
did you find anything about the zeen i want to flash a new rom but i dont see nothing about it anywhere

Nope nothing, The tablet itself isn't worth much at all.
You can root the thing. Had one of them a while back, was OK, HERE is where i left it at that time. The kids loved it, it was sturdy. Google is your friend

Hi I am new to android after years of using iOS. I am interested in rooting my device but I can't find any info on doing so. I'm not sure what gen it is either. I believe it is gen 10. Does anyone have any advice on finding a root? Cheers
same here
Dear humans,
I have this device and found that there is little support for it. Or I might be looking into wrong sections
If anyone has knowledge of rooting this device, please let us know. I really wanted to install some apps that can help it perform better. It goes so slow when apps are installed or just general internet browsing.
Thanks

Thanks for this information about using android devices as secondary displays. I knew exactly where to come for the best information. I've read elsewhere on the Internet that this can cause the android device to freeze up and other problems, but when executed correctly, it can be quite useful. Does anyone have first-hand experience with this?
Grateful
Before I dive into this I'd like to thank you. The fact that someone like yourself would take time out to help out a dummies like myself. I don't know if any of this applies to a Note 5 or Galaxy Tab A ,but trying to mirror either one of those is a friggin joke,it's like Vegas odd's if it will work!
Hopefully I can help someone
else out down the road.
I've actually stayed away from your site for quite a while. The last time I was on it the person I was trying to get ask a question apparently didn't like my level of "tech intelligence",he scared me,lol. So it's nice to have you answer something that I've been afraid to ask and embarrass myself for long time ,this is really good stuff,
so alot thanks,...jl...
I have recently bought an Onyx Boox Note. This is an E-Ink device that runs Android 6.0.1. It has a 10.3 inch display, 2 gb of RAM, and 32 gb of internal storage. No sd card slot. There is no custom recovery available for it, to my knowledge. Neither Kingoroot nor Kingroot were able to root it. I have adb access to the Note, however, but not fastboot.
Any suggestions as to what I could try? Let me know if you need more info about the device.
Thanks for your help.
Update: I have achieved root. I used King Root which finally worked after a couple of attempts. I then used the SuperSuMe Pro app to switch myself over to SuperSU. All is well now.
OT, So is the device worth the $$$?

That depends on how you plan to use it. (The price is not out of line if you compare it with an iPad or some similarly sized Android tablet.)
The best answer I can give you is to offer you a checklist of various features. If you can say "yes" to most, if not all, of them, then the Note might be worth the cost for you.
1) Your eyes like E-Ink much more than LED.
2) You want a device light enough for lengthy ebook reading sessions, yet large enough to comfortably read pdfs.
3) You want the ability to install apps of your choice (Instapaper, Moon Reader, Outlook, Office, whatever...)
4) A frontlight is not essential.
5) A sd card slot is not essential.
6) Bluetooth capability is important.
7) Note-taking with a stylus is important to you.
8) Audio capability is useful to you.
9) You find the older crop of E-Ink devices too slow.
There may be other features you may value, but this will do as a general checklist. Then you can see for yourself if the Note is worth the money or not.
Please we need root!!!! I was not able to get root with my firmware!!!!
Hi, Where did you buy this device? I like it and my eyes are tied of LCD screens.
More one question: Could you please show some pictures with taking notes on Onenote?
Thanks

I bought my device from here.
I don't have OneNote installed on my device. However, if you check out the Onyx threads on Mobileread, you'll find reports that there is a significant lag when someone takes notes with OneNote, or any third party app. The stock Note app works much better - but that doesn't help you, unfortunately.
I don't use the note-taking functions very much, other that annotations and the like on pdfs.

The Android applications for taking notes are not ready for this device yet (if they use the Note's SDK, that will be much different history), they have a lot of lag, but instead you can use the built in note application and the is like writing in paper.
I use it to read book and the web.
Need help
Guys, thanks a lot for answers. Actually I need an e-ink device on Android with a big screen and capable to run the app JW Library. But because this devise is new on the market, I am afraid to spent the money (and it is not a cheap one) and discover that it can not run this app smoothly. I have a Kindle Paper White and I love it, but its screen is too small and it is not an Android.
May I ask you guys a favor?
Could someone of you guys to install this app from Google Store and to download just some magazines and books and to try to turn pages, to click on references and to see how it works (the app does not require registration). I think with 2 Gb of RAM and 4 core proc. it should work smoothly as much as the e-ink screen allows, but I am afraid to buy it and discover that this app is too heavy for the Note and its software.
Please, I need a help with this.
Thank you in advance for the help!
P.S.: It would be great if someone could attache a picture of the Note with this app working/opened if it is not too much to ask for.
I might be able to try it tomorrow. One of the main reasons why I bought the Note was its ability to run the Logos Bible Software app - and the Note runs it perfectly. I'll see what I can do about pics. I can attach screenshots as well.
ERASED.
citytrader said:
I did the test, is not like turning pages because the application has the scroll vertical and the experience was smooth (smooth as an eink allows), the experience was like Galaxy TAB S with a display a bit slower than the Galaxy.
This device for reading is really amazing, I believe till now is the best in the market.
The screenshots are in the attachment.

@IurMal: How is it going with the JW Library on an Onyx Boox Note? Does this device have to be rooted? I am looking for a decent e-ink device which can run the JW Library flawlessly.

My question was about Onyx Boox Note and whether it can run certain software installed from Google Play flawlessly without the need to root this device.

Hello Windsor1959, I have a ONYX BOOX Note too, but the >Pro< Version
I tried the apk and Windows-Software from the link you provided (Thank You for sharing!! :laugh, but I could not do it:
KingRoot.apk and Windows Application with USB + ADB, everytime it replies "no root possible", even after factory reset and multiple on/off tries;
Because I don't have an open boot-loader I cant do much else, or can I ??
6.0.1 Android Marshmallow should have enough holes in it, no?

After one of the firmware updates, I was unable to get root again. So Onyx must have changed something, which made it harder to root the device. To be honest, I think I lucked out in getting root in the first place!
Yes, you'd think that Marshmallow would have plenty of holes in it! But I haven't seen anyone else get root on a Note, either, since then.
If anyone else reading this has, please tell us how you did it!

Just to confirm what @Windsor1959 encountered that previously I was able to obtain root through Kingroot. Recently I updated the firmware for my Onyx Boox Note and I tried to root again with Kingroot but was not successful. I encounter this post while I am searching for method to root it again (very unlikely at this point).
If anyone is still interested.
