With my SGS i can watch browser images on my samsung tv 50 inch plasma, with cable for tv-out (nokia cable), but the problem was that tv is far 3 meter to sofa and cable is 1 meter. Is there a Wireless/Bluetooth Keyboard with pad that i use to control my Android phone?
Here's a thread on the same page as where you posted this! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=799079 Hope it helps
ops....thanks!

So, I have been connecting my vibrant to my tv and streaming movies from my tab using Allshare. I would like a VNC program which works allow me to remotely control my phone from the tab. The data cable to rca and/or hdmi dock for the tab is too hard to find right now and I have the video cable for the vibrant already. When/if I get the tabs cables, I will probably want to control the tab from the vibrant.
Big kudos to anyone who solves this one.
When i got the TF and red that it has a HMDI port.
I thought, sweet! thats cool!
Then i was looking for a cable and started thinking, why the hell would i connect my TF to my tv?
What do you guys use the HMDI port for?
Only thing i could imagin is maybe stream a movie, but i have a Playstation3 and playstation media server that covers that for me.
Games? you have to look at the TF anyway so you know your hitting the right part of the screen.
What wonderful things can we do with this?
doing slides presentation
You can show yourself playing games on the big screen to your friends instead of 10 people crowding up on a 10.1" screen right.
But yeah, slide presentations actually do use HDMI ports. But most people stick to VGA anyway.
I output my recorded movies (camcorder) to the TV for family to view instead of crowding around the tablet.
I connect a sixaxis PlayStation controller to the dock and play N64 games on the tv. (or Cordy etc.)
connect a wireless mouse to the dock and browse the web using the large display of my 24" monitor from the other side of the room.

Your question raises an important point.
I would have loved to use the HDMI port to connect to TV or OHP Projector etc to make presentations - but apparently the Asus HDMI port is not HDCP compliant and so it would not work with many devices that do accept HDMI inputs but expect them to be HDCP compliant.
I have tried connecting my Tablet to my Panasonic LCD TV using the HDMI port and have failed.
I have tried connecting the same to my computer's LCD monitor using HDMI and it seems to work correctly because the computer monitor does not expect HDCP Compliance.
So I raise the question that you raised.
What can this HDMI port be used for? For me so far this port is useless.
Most TVs will have HDCP in at least one HDMI input.
However, sometimes not every HDMI port on the TV will be HDCP compliant
..so you could check your TV user manual and pick your HDMI input accordingly
Note: There is no firmware upgrade that can turn a non-HDCP input into a HDCP compliant input

If i remember correctly - my Sony Bravia KDL-W4000 only has HDCP in HDMI connection 1
I watch movies on my HDTV through it...both recorded and streaming.
It seems useful to me...otherwise I'd be watching the 100th rerun of that 70's show...no thanks.
I use mine for teaching English classes. Hook it up to a projector for flash cards and such. It's much easier to use for teaching than a computer, since you use your fingers and not a mouse.
Long time viewer, first time posting.
I'm a science teacher and I use a galaxy note 10.1 (original) to do my lectures and I project the image on the screen with allshare cast. The problem is, our school has old projectors with no HDMI and only XGA resolution. Up until now, I have been using an HDMI --> DVI cable which displays the image clearly. The problem of course is that there is no sound. I don't need sound most of the time, so I've been getting by without it.
However, after reading a few threads on here I found that people had success using allshare with the Cable Matters active HDMI --> VGA with audio cable on amazon. So I picked up one of those. I connected the cable and sound, made sure to power it with the usb cable, and it shows up with just a black screen. No matter what configuration it is in, it just shows a black screen. When I pull the HDMI cable out of allshare and put it into a laptop (acer chromebook), the image displays on the screen fine. So the VGA cable and adapter both work.
Allshare works on the projector with DVI, but not VGA, whereas a laptop works with both on the same projector. Any help?
Does that HDMI-VGA adapter support HDCP? I'm pretty sure there's been a change to the ASCD to require HDCP support on the "display" end.

I did see that, though I'm still on the old LJ02 firmware and furthermore the others I've heard with hdcp issues received a message saying that the device was not hdcp compatible. In my case I cant even see the allshare cast instruction screen (it's black) but I CAN see the dongle on my device and connect.
Hey everyone.
I need some help with an HDMI- DVI problem on my MK808B Plus
Goal:
Connect my Android Mini-TV (MK808B Plus) to a specific PC monitor.
Problem:
Monitor has a resolution of 1440x900 and no HDMI.
Story:
I have an old monitor as described above that i want to use for a small project. This project involves an android device. I chose to go with the MK808B Plus. Knowing the connections available on the monitor, i also bought a Mini HDMI to DVI-D adapter cable. I hooked it all up and the monitor detected the input but wouldn't display an image. Just random lines sometimes and then black like it was attempting to connect.
I then hooked it up to another monitor via HDMI and it worked just fine. I then plugged it into the same monitor's DVI port using the adapter and the monitor seemed to see it, and try to display it, but to no avail.
I would like any and all help i can get with this problem. If need be i can even swap the android stick for another model as i have just purchased it.
Thanks
Hello guys,
I have an old Ainol Novo 7 Aurora II tablet with broken screen (only one half is working) and I would like to connect it to my TV and use it as HTPC with Kodi.
Problem is when I turn my TV off, the tablet stops sending signal via HDMI cable. As I turn the TV on again I have to walk to tablet and manually start "HDMI Switch" app and select TV as the output.
Is there a way to tell my tablet to permanently send the signal via HDMI cable?
