Have you tried it on a hdmi device? I have done it on my hd tv. It works and well. I believe you must have hdmi output to do it. Or the laptop dock is the main option.

Well it pulled up on my TV. Isn't there a way to use it on a desktop without the dock?

If you have a HDMI input on your desktop monitor, you can connect the Atrix via HDMI to your monitor. If you have the Webtop hack, you will be able to use it this way. If not, you should still be able to use the entertainment center. You won't however be able to use Webtop on a laptop, as video on a laptop is out only. Similarily, you won't be able to connect your phone through the video card on a desktop, as this is video out only also. You could possible do this with an elaborate setup using firewire, serial ports, etc., but why would you go to those lengths?
Hope I understood your question and my response answers that question.
Cheers!
<edit> I should also add that the limiting factor with a laptop and desktop is not the connection itself, but rather the drivers. The ports are capable of video in, but you will not find drivers to accommodate this.
The laptop dock is not a "laptop" as such, and you shouldn't confuse the laptop dock with a laptop.

Making a home-made a tv out cable for the vibrant?

I like hacking and cutting and fixing and things like that so I was wondering is it anywhere remotely possible to make a home made tv out cable for cheap that works with either the headphone jack or usb port (to charge at the same time or not) the tmobile vibrant? If It makes a difference I use cm7 and stock respectively. Right now I am using stock for its camera app but id really like to use my phone with the tv but I dont trust buying things online and I cant find any in stores. Again any and all help is welcomed and greatly appreciated. I hope this is possible

recording screen?

Hi guys,
Does anyone have any suggestions for recording the screen output from my S?
At the moment I'm thinking of rooting and using one of the apps that are available, but I understand that the framerate, using this method, can be a bit slow.
I was thinking maybe I could hook the hdmi cable up to my computer somehow. But I've never done this before, (and I'd have to buy the cable).
So if anyone has any experience with this or could offer any advice, that would be really helpful.
Cheers.
I use screencast, but it needs root though..

Drive Link - Full Mirroring

Not sure if anyone has posted this. Anyways I was just wanting to share this cracked version of drive link with full mirroring. I'm using this with my sony xav 601 and works great just a little lag and well not being able to to turn the screen off to conserve power.
Here is the link I found. Not taking credit for that just wanted to share. Seen a few people on youtube saying drive link not working on S4.

Piracy is NOT allowed on XDA, thread closed - jcase
Enjoy.
It is available in this forum somewhere too, and works great! Only issue I have with it is that I want it to be quiet when I first plug it in. I don't need the update it gives for weather. May have to make a tasker trigger for it.
Anyway, thanks for the link.

A lot of custom kernels have fast charge, have you tried that? It gets the most juice it can from USB.

I can't go custom I'm on mf3 and don't feel like going through the whole bootstrap thing. For some reason I thought stock ROM had or has fast charge. Correct me if I'm wrong. I do have this car charger from boxwave 3.1amp for iPad and iPhone and it will charge my phone 10% in about 10-15mins. Its wonderful to have.

On MF3 as well. Safestrap does nothing for the kernel, so USB Fast Charge is a no go for us. You have to keep a stockish kernel designed for the safestrap use. I agree that the lack of charging is an issue as well. One of the causes to that is the screen staying on. There is a solution to that though.

Screen Standby - Needs root, but it can turn off your phone screen but still allow the DriveLink and MirrorLink to show on your HU.
Hello. I have been short the JVC NSx700 series car radio. And the Galasxy S4 with the normal StockRom 4.3 and root. Did the APP DriveLink also from the website which is mentioned above loaded. Runs great, too. Only it's normal extreme jerking the videos? Both online vidoes (youtube) including videos coming from the phone. Are actually not viewable. Is this due to the DriveLink APP or the USB cable, the data can not send data faster?
