No love from TWC TV

Some of you may know that today Time Warner Cable enabled the capabilities of Android 4.0 devices to watch live through this app like Apple... Only issue, App says "Does not support rooted device" really!!! WTF!!! Thoughts??? Work around?

Live TV no. Just digital cable and road runner internet. As for the Dvr recording you just need a Dvr converter and digital cable.

There is someone over in the Droid section of forums, I believe, that is hacking the app itself. They're having luck...

MHL- mobile high definition link. An adapter for your phone that plugs in to the USB port and converts to HDMI that goes to your tv. No ps3.

And, certain MHL adapters don't work with the Rezound. It is really a hit or miss.
Did you looks through the Accessories section? I know a within a couple months after the phone came out there were a few threads about it. Looks like a few more now:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=66115450
People have definitely gotten it working using one of the adapters from monoprice.com
One or more of the threads has a link to the one that works with this phone.
If you have good wireless in your house, you can use imediashare, or other apps from the playstore. Put them both on your network, and you should be able to stream from phone to ps3.

MHL adapter. You will get no other answer.
I researched them a while back. The mhl adapter needs to be plugged in and I think it has to be done in a certain order. I think there are videos on YouTube and I think there was a thread somewhere on XDA about it.

Since HBO.go works on flash, you can use dolphin browser with the Hulu hack, and watch from the browser. It is hard to login sometimes, but I have done it on a couple of occasions.

The same thing for me, some times the phone take all night long to charge 5%, and the phone don't charge, I got to switch between different charger, HTC Apple Samsung etc... It's very difficult, but I think it's the battery, it's just a simple supposition.

I don't think its the problem I think its the port its self but then if I connect to odin on laptop it shows up fine but won't charge from laptop

Try blowing some compressed air into the micro usb, could be something in there, if it's not charging at all it will be hardware related.
Another thing will be to check another battery iy could be the battery has failed for some reason, if none of those work flash stock and run triangle away to reset flash counter and it's off to a service center because it could be physical damage to the micro usb.
