G2x with cm7 HDMI connection - T-Mobile LG G2x

I was able to connect my g2x to my tv when i was on the stock rom of the g2x by using a microHDMI cable but now that ive flashed cm7 i cant no longer do that... is there any way i could do it once again?

You'd have to go back to stock for that. CM7 doesn't yet support it. They are working on it though.

the GB Leak ROM has it so that's what I use now to get GB until they do an actual update.

thats not true Ive been able to use HDMI out on all the eaglesblood and CM7 roms Ive used so far. I mostly use it to play emulators but oddly when i watch movies it always cuts out for a second every minute or so. its done that since stock

It works fine on eaglesblood but not on cm7 for some reason do you mind posting the link of the rom and kernel youre using so i can try them out and see if i get my hdmi to work on cm7

I am using nightly 59 but it has worked on all the CM7 builds i have tried.
Whenever i have odd issues i cant resolve with a rom or especially a nightly i do a full wipe rather than just davlink and cache
make sure when you restore your titanium backup your SD card folders are erased and backed up to your PC

no success with cm7.1 as well! what are your setting to get it to work? mine says mode not supported when i plug in, worked on stock though

Ive done nothing at all. I just flashed the rom and it worked right away.

No luck here either with EB 1.05 GB build or CM7 RC1.

are you sure its not the cable? I am now on CM7 RC1 and still haven't had any issues. In fact I just was at a friends house playing Mario kart and Mario world for over an hour on a 55" TV without an issue. though for some reason when watching video it losses connection for a second at random, but not with games.

I also have no problems using HDMI on CM7 nightlies. I think I remember someone posting here a while back that your tv/monitor has to be 1080 in order to work...if it's 720 it doesn't...don't quote me, but I think I remember something about that.

You may be right. My display is 720p and all CM7 builds do not output video. When using stock rom or based on the GB 2.4.3 leak then HDMI works fine on 720p display.
I hope they address this issue with the CM7 builds as well.

Now that I think about it the only time it didn't work was in a hotel. the TV screen was black. it could be that was a 720P TV, because I know every other TV Ive used is 1080p. I always thought the HDMI was blocked on the TV because the menu was grayed out

Any update on whether CM7 will support HDMI? Anyone using a stable nightly that reliably supports HDMI?

I'm using CM7 last stable release and it doesn't have any HDMI support.

odd, its removed or not working? guess i wont flash the latest

There is also no HDMI in Settings in CM7 latest stable release. The stock T-Mobile ROM did have an HDMI menu in Settings.

My G2X is crucial to my work and stability is all important. I'd rather try a previous, stable nightly build than the latest.

CyanogenMod + Wii Controller IME works!

I just wanted to inform those who did not know or test this, but CyanogenMod 6.1 works with Wii Controller IME. I just finished playing Kirby on Gameboid.
My apologies if anyone has recently posted about this, I just got over excited and wanted to share.
You Need:
CM 6.1
Wii Controller IME
Wii Controller
Happiness and a child within you to play the classics

Now we just HDMI out....

Nice! Hopefully, and presumably this will work with CM7 whenever it comes out because it uses a different Bluetooth stack?
You should make a youtube video showing it off I NEED THIS! lol
Wow lol thats pretty cool
Ok... so now I will have to play with porting the cm bt stack to cog.

dg messed with bluetooth stacks a while back and every time reverted back to the samsung stack.
cyanogen is good but as far as i can tell has problems on galaxy s phones. cm7 should be better and i believe there is a port out there somewhere of a cm7 beta
The steps to installing that port are ridiculous though, will wait till they have a stable version out.........probably 2012, yeah i can complain.......i know its not easy and they arent being paid........just takin so long because no one wants to do it....and i dont blame them lol. Still someone should post a video about being able to use Wiimote with Cyanogen on Cappy.........will probably be featured on android central or Engadget........its big news since there isn't a video showing it off at all
Hmm
The steps for me are as follows:
Flash to stock
Flash reoriented kernel 3.5
Flash CM 6.1 BETA 3
if rebooting occurs then reflash the kernel
then all is well
And would you guys like me to upload a video of it working?

a video would be great...
it may re-spark some interest in getting this to work for other roms.

[Q] custom roms missing hdmi and dlna

i have a question, but i think its a more of a general statement. i just came from the hd2, as i'm sure many did, great phone, any type of android i wanted but no tv-out was only draw back for me. g2x hdmi, awesome. but i noticed all the non-stock roms are missing hdmi and dlna, why? what is the point in this phone if you dont utilize those features? i'm just curious, i'm not sure if its the major ability to build and flash ANYTHING on the hd2 thats got me bummed about the limits of this phone, but i'm just curious on why that is "cooked" out of so many of the roms...
There is no source, so they can't add it on anything other than 2.3.3 roms.
But I'm sure the CM team will eventually get it working like they did with the Bluetooth.

In the nightly cm7 thread, there are people reporting HDMI working ... I don't have a cable or I'd test it for you. Apparently there aren't any settings for it, it's supposed to just work.

Anything stock has it like Eagle'sBoold, WeaponG2X, etc.
MIUI, CM or anything with 2.3.5+ it doesn't work.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Yeah on CM7 its really buggy. Ex: I can only output 1080pi, and If i play an hd video on youtube or from a file the playback will cutoff. I can live with it its just not the best. And of course anything based on stock will work perfectly.

what about "smart share" dlna? i've been flashing roms to see what works etc, and finally flashed swift and put my sim card in and it says something about i dont have a data plan? or something, but i know it works and that i do. then i got it working in web browser and it said my plan was invalid with this phone, any thougts? i know its a new subject but i'm right here talking.

Stuck between a rock and a rom

Anyone else with this problem? I haven't flashed a Rom since late 2011 for a bunch of reasons however now I'm back for a new dessert. ICS. Flashed whitehawks AOKP loved every inch. However when you flash one you have to check out the others right? HFS. Not as in love, but the gems. Data and Audio. I guess I'll take HFS to work to show off then AOKP for home then HFS to hear my alarm for work. Is there a ICS Rom where the video (online) or Netflix is smooth I think its called deoxed. If there is please let me know.

I don't believe you're gonna be in luck until we see official ICS releases for the G2X/O2X. Basically no native video drivers exist at the moment for the Tegra2 + ICS.

No search some more IRS public that the O2X is going to get ICS eventually, which means one way or another so will we.

Thanks for the info, that sucks... thats a pretty important flaw. No audio via HDMI pretty much makes it worthless in my opinion.
The CM10 rom just got updated to Round 11 and I think HDMI audio should work now. Try by yourself
I had the same problem the first time I tried it. I'm running US stock .30 fwiw. I unplugged, replugged and got sound.

[Q] Kernel/ROM that supports MHL HDMI

I have been having trouble finding a kernel that supports MHL, and a decent ROM in which to run said kernel. I really like SKY and Embryo for their call recording functionality, but I also require the MHL HDMI support. I have heard that CM 10 runs MHL well, however my problem remains that I need a good ROM that supports the kernel without a brick/ineffiiciency. I am currently on GB 2.6.35 on a custom NEXUSMOD ROM and it simply doesn't cut it. If I can just flash my kernel that would be ok too.
Try them for yourself find what works if your too lazy for that then this isn't the site for you

Any cm10 Rom
Lightning kernel
but waffle is right, research bro
Yea, so far Im running Sky ICS, an older version because I like the call recording features; and the MHL is supported. CM10 is pretty awesome however I really do fancy the built in call recording! Thanks for the reply

CM10. Works really well. Other than than, just try them all out. Grab one a day until you find one you like.
Good luck.
mhl question
I'm not sure if this fits but i had a problem with mhl using CM10 (stable; kernel:kernel that came with it)
When i plug the adapter in the screen auto rotates to landscape, I'm ok with that, but the problem is any app (ex: temple run) that only has portrait mode isn't displayed. All I see is a black screen on my TV. I saw on youtube people with stock roms display portrait stuff so I was wondering if it was possible on CM. Anyone have similar problem? Help plz?
