Anything is possible. You'd have to completely program this.
I'm thinking you'd have to be running Debian on it to even have a chance.

No WIDI or WHDI....that sucks!
That be a waste of money especially since dlna TVs are pretty cheap and the device is dlna capable.

it has also a MHL port meaning that you can use the usb port to get a hdmi output
watch the long press release video he does mention sharing wirelessly... if that helps answer your question

HDMI cord

Is there a way to watch movies/videos from your phone on your TV? My friend has the Droid x and he has a seperate mini HD slot beside his normal charge port.

Due to the Inspire not having an HDMI port, the answer is NO

It is actually possible. Twonky Server can stream audio, pics and movies over a WiFi network to a compatible device. I use my XBOX 360, I think there is a list of devices on Twonky's website. There is also the option of streaming via DLNA, if you have the hardware for it. I have not tried the latter.

Just tried this using the HDMI adapter from my ladies Samsung Infuse and when I plugged it in it made HT Locations pop up with no option to output video to my TV. Oh well.

The DNLA streaming works great, I have played around with it but don't have much need for it. If you have the hardware, it's a great option and easy to use.

Bought used tf700 can't hook upto tv?

Ok so I purchased this tablet used and yesterday was the first time I tried hooking it up via the micro hdmi to my hdtv...nothing worked...I'm running cromi Rom and even did a fresh stock Rom install...the tablet does not even recognize it's plugged into the hdmi...I'm using a media bridge cable as seen here

Could the cord be the problem...does the cord have to be at least 1.4?...I'm really hoping it not the tablet ...any suggestions?

I would try at LEAST 1 more cable to ensure its not the tablet. I bought one from monoprice and it works great. I can't post a link b/c I'm a new member but google search "15ft 34AWG Standard HDMI® Cable With Ethernet w/Ferrite Core - HDMI® Micro Connector male to HDMI® Connector male - Black" on monoprice and you'll see it.
Good luck and post back!
It may be the cable. Most smartphones have micro HDMI output, so test one. If you have a Radio Shack they sell a HDMI to micro HDMI adapter that you could use on one of your other cables.

Is there an adapter that will let me connect the Moto G to the HDTV via HDMI input?

(mirror whatever is on the Moto G's screen)
Yes. (AFAIK, after reading answers here on the forum)
DLNA or Miracast dongles works pretty well.

There is no Miracast and no MHL....so no adapter will work to HDMI port on TV.....?
DLNA yes....?
to any enabled device TV or dongle!!!!.....?

Hey all new to HTC and wondering about this phone and HDMI out.. It seems that there is a or was a special cable with the m7.. Does that same cable work?
Thanks

Well, this is from the specs:
HTC Connect Micro-USB 2.0 (5-pin) port with mobile high- definition video link (MHL) for USB or HDMI connection (Special cable required for HDMI connection.)
I just bought a MHL cable from Amazon and I'll just try it if no one else has yet. Worse case I return it.

I use a standard MHL adapter (non-HTC) and it works just fine. Here is the one I use: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875994879
As I said...Works perfectly fine with my M8.
any idea if my Samsung one will work?
(don't have a HDMI screen or TV to test it)
