My Sero 7 Pro will not output to HD resolutions on my television. It will only output to 640x480.
I can't figure out why this is happening, but I'm assuming it's HDCP related. The Sero 7 Pro doesn't have any HDMI output options. So far no ROM I've downloaded has fixed this either (I've tried XESeroROMv2 and Jellytime 4.3.1).
Any suggestions, or apps that may force this?
Thanks!
Nobody knows?
Anybody?
bump.
Can anybody help with this?
Bumping again. Really hoping somebody out there knows what's going on with this.
Bump of desperation...

Same issue here so it's not only you. Wish I could be of help but I came here with the same question. I am going to try some different devices today and see if it makes any difference.

It's definitely a software problem. Jellytime 4.3.1 works in HD but is stuck in portrait mode. That ROM also has HDMI options, unlike the stock one.
I'm losing faith that Hisense will get it together, but maybe the community here will be able to work it out, between XboxExpert, DeloresSpark, and RandomBlame. XESero7ROMv2.2 is actually quite good, it's my daily driver currently, but still has the HDMI output issue.

hi guys,
after abit of help. i bought a hdmi adaptor, from amazon this one http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007K8NNOA/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00
so that i would be able to play content from my phone straight through to my tv. I also bought a new hdmi lead and i connected using the phone charger and lead that came with the phone.
When i plug it all together it shows on the phone that hdmi out is connected and i can display video or photos on the external device. But no matter what i do i cannot get a picture to display on the tv.
Am i doing something wrong? Or does it never work? I tried rebooting the phone i tested the hdmi lead to make sure it works. Is there another option on the phone i need to select to i need to use a different app?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Are you on the stock rom/kernel? I can't say I use this feature as much as I thought I would, but I have noticed some kernels break this feature (though I can't say which ones anymore - been a while) and I've seen some roms break this as well. I don't know if this was a placebo or what, but I also noticed that it broke for me after removing some of Sprint's or HTC's bloatware... I think it was the transfer app, but it doesn't make much sense to me why.
I'd try it on a full stock rom/kernel first to make sure it's not software related. Then try it on multiple TVs. I actually had an experience once where it wouldn't display on my TV, but worked fine on my HDMI enabled pc monitor - same symptoms you're describing. Tried different kernel, all was better. But I've also read about people just having a bad mhl adapter or bad hdmi cable too.
As above it needs to be supported by rom and kernal. Try a stock configuration and see what happens. If that fails it might be a faulty adaptor, these cheap ones are known to fail easily.
i appreciate your guys help. i am on stock rom/kernal. my tv is pretty new. The phone is showing as having a hdmi connection so wasn't sure if it could still be the adaptor? i will try it on another tv at the weekend. if it still doesn't work maybe send the adaptor back?
so it should display whilst playing a film through the stock video player? i dont need to use a special programme or anything else?
It automatically displays whatever is on the phone's screen. No need for anything special beyond plugging it in. It could still be a faulty adapter even though the phone shows hdmi.
Another idea might be to double check your tv out settings on the phone. Make sure those are correct.

Ah so it may still be the adapter. ok, thanks.
also how do you double check the tv settings? sorry if that is a noobish question.

I can't remember exactly. It's in the phone settings. I'm on the ice cream sandwich leak so I think it's a little different.

ive looked everywhere in the phone settings and cannot find it. also i read through the manual and must be really dumb as i cannot see anything in there about it either.
@ scariola thanks i tried your suggestion as well.
i would be really interested to hear if anyone ever got this to work?
You have to have it plugged into the wall outlet as well. Just a thought
just an update guys i tried it on an oldish portable tv and it worked? so no idea why it doesn't work here at home???
still thanks for all the help.
Evening,
Was wondering if anyone could give me advice, I am trying to connect my S2 running MIUI jellybean to a LG 32lh2000 with a Micro usb to MHL adapter.
Its not working, nothing comes on screen, nothing changes on phone when connected to tv. I was wondering if it was the ROM, the TV, the lead or maybe the phone
Can anyone give advice, on wither this is possible with this rom ? Phone or TV ?
I cant test it on another tv or with another phone.
I would really like to get this working.
Thank you in advance

By "MIUI jellybean", are you referring to this ROM? If so, that ROM has a CM10 base. See the list of known CM10 issues for the i9100. (which was conveniently linked for you in post one of the ROM thread)
thank you

Yes that's it, thank you for your quick help and sharing your knowledge. Pity about the TV out thing, now i have a decision to make. TV out or the rom i really like.
Once again, thank you.

Hello Everyone! This is a movement/project to get MHL going on CM10 ROMs. I have started tearing into it as some of you may have seen on some other threads, but I am just a noob
I would love some help on this. I am not good with programming or working with source so i have posted my changes on pastebin. Reason for that is so that you guys (and gals) can help out! If you know what you're doing and can build with some changes you make yourself, please go ahead and do so, but keep me informed. If you are not as savvy with this stuff like me, you can still help by searching through the code and trying to see what is missing or out of place! Thank you to all that help out. Post any news or questions here!
Pastebin ==> http://pastebin.com/u/slingerdroid
Attached log files from attempting MHL use on AOSP and actually doing it on Sense 3.6.
Big Thank you to SirGatez

I thought thus was used for HDMI only and not the mhl connector.
Cm10 trys to output video to USB when connected to the mhl device. It just doesn't know how. Someone posted a logcat and it shows its passing the information to com.android.athome.mediaroute.provider
But errors right there. Unless I'm looking at the wrong error. But I need to look at it some more. Couldn't do much at work today. :/

I've been reading a lot and CM10 seems like it has problems with MHL anyways. You say it tries to push it through USB but just doesn't know how to. That would be kernel issue would it not?
I will be able to start testing when I get my MHL adapter back tomorrow. I got a lot of free time to test since I'm done updating recoveries for now
EDIT: I reading more and saw where one guy somehow changed his refresh rate to [email protected] inside of the kernel. So is it somewhere in there most likely???
im also good to test. might be sending the phone in though so sooner rather than later would be good. It seems that everything starts with the ActivityManager file... i could be wrong though.

Kernel is built with HTC source. I would think it would carry over but I'm no way a kernel dev. The jar file posted in the other thread might be needed but I haven't had time to look at it yet. As it sits now the phone doesn't know how to pass the information from the screen to the USB mhl to the TV. I think the reason why screen says source and just black is because its getting some sort of output.

I think the real issue is as I discussed else where (where I posted the logs in CounterShrike) and the issue is that the kernel has everything it needs to utilize MHL hardware and the HDMI out driver is functioning (but separate from the actual media pipeline. The pipeline portion that MHL require to function (the middleman that takes the graphics, sound and sends them to MHL hardware) does not seem to be in our sources (not the kernel, but the libraries) because it is proprietary. I am going to experiment with trying to hack the display middleman into AOSP and see if it works, with any luck it will be drop in and won't require anything HTC specific.
In Stock once the MHL cable is connected an HDMI broadcast is sent and picked up by the DisplayListener which responds by handshaking and configuring the MHL/HDMI output of the device before handing off to the AudioListener which does the same. AOSP is not performing any of this short of identifying the MHL cable is connected and rotating the home screen for display (it also appears any portrait app besides the home screen stays in portrait mode regardless of MHL cable connected)
This is an issue affecting many MHL capable devices, NOT just the Rezound. I have read MHL does work on some AOSP devices but I have not been able to locate any source to specific roms capable of it (which could help us). I think our best bet is a hack until we can get/find proper source.
Once we can get the DisplayListener and AudioListener to handshake with MHL/HDMI hardware like Stock we can identify what else we may need to fix if we are still without picture and or audio.

Hmm..That is true. Should be taken from original source unless Chad has modified a file which I doubt that is the case.
EDIT: Or what he said above This guy has his MHL fix in his kernel at https://github.com/ZenArcade/Infusion-GB-Z/commit/e70be75f5e709ef17df9dd2705bee1b810e0a2b6
waiting for a reply back from meetmhl on exactly what files are used in the api. Hopefully it's something as simple as missing a lib.

I believe this rom has working MHL. https://github.com/rascarlo/platfor...jb-ras-mr1/core/java/android/hardware/display
Very good work cslingerland and Flyhalf205. Could one of our AOSP devs check this code out and see if compiling it into the ROM resolves our MHL problems? I do not currently have a development environment setup Someone would likely beat me to having a compiled library ready. I would have to D/L some source first as I haven't done any kernel dev work since Gingerbread. Thanks!
FYI, HDMI/MHL has nothing to do with USB, they just share a connector (it can do USB or MHL, not both).

Dear All,
Has anyone tried iPad3 Bluetooth tethering to HDX? I can pair both together, but it doesnt seem to grab 3G data.
I tried transferring file via BT between SGS3 and HDX, it works which means there's nothing wrong with the chip.
I tested the same iPad with SGS3 (JB) and SGS2 (ICS). Both managed to use the data connection of iPad.
Please help.
Thanks a lot!
Banned for talking about iPads. Just kidding Did you try any apps from the Play Store?

I tried it with my Dad's HOX and my Brother's One V and my Desire X none seems to work as well even Bluetooth transfer does not work the device could pair with it but it can't make the transfer , I guess Apple hates HTC (I know they like each other I just know it! ) any info on iOS version?

Hello, I'm new here and the for adding me. I have been trying to root the above RCA Viking Pro model but have had no luck. Is there anyone here with the same model who has had success? I've had no luck usingva windows PC via USB as well as kingroot,kongoroot, oneclickroot and a few others.
This tablet has potential. I need to unleash it!
I still have one of these too, but I don't see much development for RCA tablets. I'd also be curious if anyone knew of anything, including what ROMS are available.
I am also having issues with my RCA Viking Pro 10 rct6k03w13-Amndroid 6.0-V05-V1.21.20-R00. I can cut it on but thats as far as i can go i have a double ended male USB so i connect to laptop to do trtansfers, but i have no clue on how to do anything can somebody please help me
Hello, Well mine is a RCA Viking Pro 10
RCT6K03W13 and it was honestly wiped completely out, I THINK!!!! LOL Well anyway it will come on then it will ask you to set up email and then when i finally get there and then it says it cant and starts me over. Please help with anything would be greatly appreciated.
Look at the BLU view Root/Recovery. I just got root on mine with that.
