I have an official HTC HML Adapter but the first TV I used with HDMI did not work.
It is an old Sanyo with only 1 HDMI Port.
The adapter says HTC EVO 3D and Sensation
The TV out on the same TV works instantly with the Zune RCA (Red-Yellow-White) adapter.
I will try a 27" Asus monitor with 2 HDMI inputs later.
Has anyone had success with their MT4GS and this adapter?
EDIT: No Good with Asus Monitor on either HDMI port.
I have a CECHA01 (750GB) PS3 that was updated to 3.60 with my knowledge. (I'll keep that anger away from this thread)
I will test the DLNA Media Server functionality of the PS3 if someone has not done so?
This is bad news that there is no MHL funcionality. NOT the same as Sensataion! I will have to sell this to one of my friends with Sensation that are running their fancy Custom ROMs while I sit and rot on Stock for the time! Perhaps I have a bad unit right out of the box? It's possible, but I doubt it?
Everyone is waiting your further report.

Quoted for truth.
I believe we've already confirmed that the MT4GS, out of the box at least, does not support MHL. can't remember the thread where it was being discussed.
it would seem that it could be possible if you take into account the fact that the innards are the same as the Sensation and E3D, but we might have to dig to get it going. also, apparently some of the early demos of the MT4GS showed off MHL alongside the Sensation which leads me to believe we just need some small tweaks to get it working on the retail units.

This leads me to believe we need to donate to some devs to get this device in their hands. I am sick of checking the development thread to see if a there is a ROM available.
Every other device I have had, I always checked to see what was new for flashing. I think the that the timing of the Sensation and MT4GS may be one of the causes of the lack of development
What can you do....just wait and see. I have chose to wait vs getting the Sensation, which has not been easy as I have unlocked and flashed everyone in my area who has bought one, while I choose the joystick over screen res?
How much longer will this painful wait be?
Sorry for the rant.
Stock rom does not do TV out at all if you remove the TVOut apk.
Thus it follows that MHL will not work unless the correct MHL apk is present.
I would imagine the next course of action is to determine if the sensation rom contains such an apk while the mytouch does not.
Anyone have a sensation they can look at for us?

I think we're moving along nicely... less than a month since the device's official release and we have perm root & s-off already. rom development will take time. if you're aching for some changes, just head over to the UOT kitchen and have some fun there.
Just purchase a camcorder av cable. You can do tv out that way. Plus its cheaper and quality is the same as a mhl.

Can we difinitively say this device does not have mhl support at this point, or has someone learned something the rest of us are unaware of?

Well, since you are off the hook for the moment:
Does it require specific hardware to operate, or is it just code that matters?
I understand it's not supposed to matter for the connection itself - so using the MicroUSB would work on any device that had it - but is there any hardware that needs to be present within the device itself to make it work?
I think that's what I got from this before - but didn't verify anything or look into it too deeply because of the tv-out over 3.5mm and just wrote it off.
If it does require hardware support to function in some context, maybe we can see if we actually have that hardware in the device before you spend money again.
Or do you not care and just wanna buy and try? Fine either way - just curious?
Well, the seller stated its compatible for a reason, but might be an error on his side. Also im back at my money, so ill look into this more thoroughly, looking at local stores converters and their compatibility.
But yes, if someone could verify hw specification with htc or tmo that would save time.and yes it needs hw imho.

http://ifixsmartphone.com/iphone_repair/MyTouch_4G_Slide_teardown.html
That links to the only known public teardown of this device - it's showing how to replace part of the screen, but you have to take the whole device apart to get to that and pictures were taken at each step.
If we can determine that there is specific hardware needed and what it is, so far this is our best chance to see if it's physically there. (possibly?)
If any other public teardowns are found, definitely post here - and if anyone knows what hardware MHL requires the device to have please post it here so we can look into this.
Don't have the time to look too deep into this tonight, but i'll definitely post anything relevant I can find towards determining whether it's possible or not.

...that _atlien_ posted about here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17482235&postcount=2
I've gone to that page probably once every 2 or 3 weeks since it was posted and thought about buying it, maybe next time but every time I get closer to going for it.
----
That aside though, any public resources along these lines anyone has found would be appreciated. I think the idea that it needs hardware makes sense or any device could just do it with the right code - but not sure and could be wrong. We need a conclusive determination on this.
well,ive found a local store with mhl stuff, i think these are pretty much the same converters. Going to give it a spin with the Sensation based rom and stock.

sent from HTC Doubleshot pyroiced
ok. i think MHL is a not going to work, looking and digging for it.
The chip is called 'sii9234' that sensation and shooter (evo3d) seems to have by default in the kernel. Looking for this chip on google related to our device I see nothing relevant...
there would be no sane reason to not include the driver if the chip is on board, that would be like worsening the market position of it. So i wont buy this cable, till someone can confirm that the sii9234 mhl chip is on the board.

Hi All,
I am planning on making an app that unlocks the HDMI capabilities of the Evo. However with limited documentation and secretive programmer's manual for the HDMI chip on the Evo, this is almost impossible.
I tired searching for the register reference or programmer's giude for the SiI9024A HDMI chip but found nothing on the web (they only released it to HTC and other manufacturers). If anybody has these documents and would like to see the Evo with full HDMI, please private message/email me these docs or a link to them.
I will use this thread to update on project's progress, link demos and what not.
This is something I've been wanting to see for a while. I don't have any documentation to offer, but once you get something going, let me know if you need any help testing.
Or you could just wait for cm7; talk of the town is that they may have that feature.

This is because the developer chose to create an app instead of a service.
Here's the action I'm looking for out of an HDMI out utility:
http://androidspin.com/2011/01/06/c...ptima-2x-with-tegra2-chipset-and-gingerbread/
Enjoy!
Hoping for this in CM7, but I'm not holding my breath. Have a pico projector that works with HDMI out in sense roms, but the audio comes out of the speakerphone..! Grr.. And only works in gallery movie player, and maybe youtube. That's it.
:-/
let the people of other forums know about this thread. androidcentral and many other sites. maybe someone throw a key information about the hdmi of the evo
This would be great if you could get full mirroring. Do any of the new htc phones coming out have the same hdmi chip? Maybe you could steal the mirroring drivers from it haha
I don't know if this helps as I have written about it before in another thread but didn't get much results. In the RUU_101107T105508(which boots and will function...but without bootloader screen..you have to remember which key functions make it go into what you are looking for) and the next one RUU_Speedy_Sprint_WWE_1-2.17.651.1_Radio_1.07.00.1129_NV_SPCS_1.52_1103_release_160079_signed and RUU_Supersonic_1.17.651.1(it is the eng-build that you can get when you use the 3 step Simple Root method.....it has HTC utilities that allows you to either select HDMI mirroring or presentation mode. However, the toggle will only let you select presentation mode. If someone knows how to change the default from "false" or to "allow" I am pretty sure it would allow HDMI output. It is a matter of going through all of the files to find the toggle switch to allow it to work. It states it is only for Supersonic and it shows pictures from the Vancouver Google Convference.....so....all of you in the know.....maybe this will help....It has a whole bunch of HTC utilities that only came with the first EVO given out at the Google conference. You can check all types of things.....WiMax included....the same settings that CM is using to make WiMax work now....I just don't think it has/was a top priority and might be an easy fix.....

heheeh ok. Here in this forum I saw a bounty about the hdmi project. look for it and verify if its still active
I just got off the phone with a very nice lady from t-mobile executive care and she told me that the official update just got to them last Wednesday and after hearing about all my problems she offered me a G2x with the software update on it and she said it would be here by the end of the week. So T-mobile is rolling out the software update soon she told me and I was so shocked she would even tell me this information. A weird part though is she said she could do the multiple exchange for the G2? That was pretty weird haha
duno man... too many stories thus far
well
well i hope she was right because I am receiving the new g2x this week with the update
No one is going to believe you. The only thing you can do is post screens of the software version etc. once the phone arrives.
Which is really a shame, because after all of this hoopla, we still have no gingerbread kernel, no nvidia drivers, and no lg camera application...and if what we have right now ends up being the official gingerbread update for our phone from t-mobile, then we really don't have much more to hope for.
http://www.tmonews.com/2011/07/t-mo...provements-retail-stores-receiving-inventory/
Lets hope that she is right and the real update is going to be out. Hopefully this leak isn't another reason to stall it. Am I the only one who thinks the LG camera app was a culprit here? you cant advertise a phone with 1080p recording then remove it in an update because you couldn't get it to work anymore.

It just seems unlikely to me, if LG put out an update that does NOT include their very own camera application, that T-mobile will include the LG camera. And the overall attitude I'm getting for various representatives at T-mobile is that of "take it or leave it." I'm getting the feeling that they are already taking a defensive stance and we pretty much have the best that we're going to get out of them.
We are on our own.

well if you dont believe it dosen't bother me at all because i know what she told me and when t-mobile sends me the official gb update on the replacement i will upload pics and vids for everybody to see because many people think its still far and i just wanted to share the info i got
anybody notice that in the pic on this page http://www.tmonews.com/2011/07/t-mo...en-shot-2011-07-25-at-4-18-29-pmwtmk0000wtmk/ it say's "the other cool stuff is still there" and it mentions 1080p video recording?
so, maybe, v21e is not "official"?

I believe you...I just say, "who cares" about an official T-mobile update? We already have the update. And unless something miraculous happened at T-mobile over the past 5 days, then this "official" update is going to be the same that we have...do you think they re-wrote LG's code? They got sent the update for testing...if they are releasing it 5 days later, then it's a pretty good bet that there were no changes to the test update.
Of course, I've been wrong about plenty in my life. But my prediction: "official update" will be the same garbage that the "unofficial" (which was "officially" released by LG already) is, with no LG camera, and no GB kernel.

Yeh, I just saw that picture that was linked above my post, and I noticed the 1080 video recording spec listed. I certainly hope that I'm wrong...because I love that LG camera so much more than the aosp version. They are just not even in the same league. But even more important than the camera, would be an updated kernel. Ahhh, what a pleasant fiction.

Who knows...I could have sworn I read a dev post once that even with a new kernel, they would still be handcuffed without Nvidia making their drivers available. But perhaps it would be another little extension to the bridge. For instance, Nvidia might be more willing to make drivers for a GB kernel available AFTER we are actually supposed to have it. Remember, technically, we still don't have gingerbread on our g2x, so there's really no reason for them to do any extra work on that end. But I'm entering an area that I know little about, and the more I type, the more unfounded opinion I'm spewing.

The Atrix has GB and A2DP works (haven't seen any complaints that it doesn't) in addition to it being 2.3.4...so someone over at Nvidia kicked it into high gear and released A2DP drivers and did something to get over the lack of NEON so that they could get FFC video via Gtalk to work. I would be very disappointed if LG didn't incorporate these changes into their GB ROM but if the ROM they "released" is the ROM we're getting...

YOu mean false advertising like the time they posted on their website and claimed the G2X was quad band and worked on at&t and then when the phone was released no one could get it to work.

I'm leaning this way.... haven't had much chance to explore this forum yet... Is it possible to get s-off yet?
Yea, it's great. I can't see anything else coming close to it for a while in it's class ( hardware keyboard )
The stock battery is not great - and that's being polite.
You can find links to the battery threads in the contents page of my sticky in dev - basically you have the cheaper Anker or the more expensive Mugen to choose from to replace it with.
If you have/want to spend the money, the Mugen is great - I rock an Anker myself and love it.
Make use of the tv-out through the headphones jack, I play a lot of games output to a tv screen and the device stays alive and active while you are hooked up. I'm sure you can imagine how much more fun racing games and many others will be like this.
You can also find links to the tv threads in the dev reference, which will tell you what cable to get.
I have a Trident case on my primary, and love it. There's a decent thread on cases, but I've been pretty busy around here and haven't had the chance to update it in a while. I'll get back to it sometime.
Once you change a few keymappings, update with my gps fix and start really playing with it you'll love it.
Any specific questions just toss 'em out there - but there is no other device now or that we know of coming that I would trade this for.

Depends. For the new update, which you'll have, you got a chance with the HTC unlock tool - if that works you can do most stuff.
We are actively working on a downgrade to S-OFF option - this led to me getting S-OFF to S -ON for us a couple hours ago and I'll be bringing one of my devices up to the S-ON locked state you'll get it in later tonight.
Then I'll be able to actually try stuff instead of us guessing - all the devs working on the fix were S-OFF already so figuring out how to flip it S-ON was a big step in productivity. Once I update in S -ON, I'm stuck until we figure it out - so don't worry man, right there with ya.
HTC should have the issue resolved and restart the OTA in the not too distant future.

Just a little word about the GPS. On the 1.28.531.10 stock ROM, your GPS fix was a huge improvement. However, now that I'm on the 1.55.531.3 stock ROM, the GPS is lightening quick and accurate without any adjustments on my part. HTC must have done some serious tweaking to the GPS code in this ROM.

You know, I wasn't thinking when I wrote that - there was a bunch of GPS stuff that was pushed for the new update, a new SUPL cert and gps.conf file. I meant to take a look at it to see what they did and if it still needed help or not, but haven't had a chance to yet.
Hopefully I'll have the presence of mind to pull them from my other phone now that it's up to date stovk

If you read the specs alone it should be nothing but obvious what phone to choose its like asking should i go with a free geo or a BMW .........
i think you get the idea by now, but i'll just say, the keyboard is the ONLY POSSIBLE reason you might choose the SK. i've had both, and there is no comparison... MT4GS all the way.
LMFAO! Screw the damn keyboard. I can't wait to dig into this phone and see what it can do. Only downside is my wife said I only get one weekend to set it up before she takes it away. NOW that I have the phone on order and I'll only have the weekend to mess with it any suggestions on what I should start with until s-off is achieved?
Depends what hboot u get. If u get the older one, ur in business. Ez to root and s-off.
Use rubix ics 5.2 with my directions on page 148 of its thread on rootzwiki, if u want stability with everything working and super fast. If she wants ics, tbalden's rom probably. But all the 4.0.X roms are still a work in progress.

http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...urer=htc&q_model=prod5890250#fbid=iJlG8AITC-w
So this popped up in my pulse news feed a few minutes ago when I was cramming in tech stuff over breakfast.
Any thoughts on compatibility?
Says it's for the HTC one series - think we could get it to work with the doubleshot?
It'll be a few more weeks before I can sit down and start getting into dev hardcore again, but I'm trying to keep up as I can and this caught my attention.
Anyone got any info out there?

Well, $90 for a novelty ain't bad.
Most likely soon we'll find them in an OEM/aftermarket version, or just plain stolen from factory and sold by workers for half price on ebay.
Thanks Blue6IX for the post!
(will "thank you" properly tomorrow - "Sorry, you are limited to 8 thanks per day" )

This has been available for a while now. No reason it shouldn't work with our phone, as we have dlna software installed (assuming you're using the stock ROM). I use my phone to stream to my sony NMP-N200 all the time... and it almost usually works.
?
I have a rom that has middle option configurations hd link, I only need the device hehehehe if anyone would like me to discuss tested.
the rom is:
[ROM]Doubleshot Android 4.0.4 Sense4.1+4A Base Ville_U_ICS_40_S_2.31.401.5

DLNA is awesome. I used it on my EVO Shift when I ported it into my ROM. At first I was like sweet I can use wireless to view my sdcard, then it scared the heck out of me (I'm paranoid) so I stopped using it.

That’s good news for future One X owners, and current owners affected by the problem should be able to get their phones replaced with one of these re-engineered models under warranty.

I know my AT&T HOX is definitely affected by the wifi problems. I don't want to replace it but it seems like the only solution.
The hardware problem being fixed is on the international version isn't it? Our phone doesn't have antenna connection in the same place.

I asked HTC support on twitter to clarify if it's hox xl. Nobody seems to have any clarity on which versions are affected. I know my AT&T version has a lot of wifi problems (even after the update).

In the article linked in the op. The info from htc is coming from the European division of the company so I think they're only talking about the international phone.

My HTC one X AT&T version has wifi connection issue. It cannot pick up wifi signal at some spots of my home while my laptop has no such problem. I hope HTC will fix the issue for my phone.

It seems AC was able to reach someone at HTC and (semi-)confirmed its the Tegra-3 variant of the HOX.

I have no issues on my HOXL so this definitely seems to be the case.

Also, as @gunnyman has pointed out, the LTE(XL, S4) variant's antenna contacts are in a completely different place.
The best thing I take from this information is comparing Apple's "You're holding it wrong" to HTC's "It's hardware and we're fixing it"
I think I'm betting on the right horse here.

Every WiFi device has a different antenna configuration and signal strength. You can't expect every device to behave exactly the same. More importantly than whether another device gets good signal, are the locations your One X is having trouble not very far from your WiFi router, and without a lot of solid objects between the router and your phone?
Its only a tegra 3 issueeeee

I'm not convinced we all have the same issues....
So far i've found there to be 2 main problems with the WiFi.
1, Soft case depression,
2, bluetooth interference
(Very common, which plagues many other devices, Iphone & Ipad are all over Google with this issue, its to do with sharing the 2.4ghz frequency. flip off the bluetooth and the problem goes away.)
After testing I can confirm that i do not have the WiFi soft case depression problem, I reckon that's the sort of problem that could easily develop. You could create this issue by doing the very squeeze test suggested, crushing the contacts, laying them down as proposed is happening... don't accidentally sit on your phone!
The problem i and many have is the bluetooth interference preventing the WiFi from picking up signal and connecting, this is resolved by killing the BT.
I have been testing for 2 weeks, very disappointed with HTC. however the BT problem i have seems fixable with software, I think i have just solved my BT problem by swapping out the rom until i found one that works ok. I believe i have, and will keep testing.
It is certainly nice to have something in print from HTC, i'd like to see the guy in the shop try to squirm his way out off giving you guys your money back now!!

Is this information even correct......
What the hell....
HTCpedia is not the official website of HTC, who the is Athanasios Zarkadas?. IN the about section for HTCpedia, they say the are just a group of people that like HTCs
i dont even know that this is an official HTC press release...
I followed the links.. its suggesting this is an HTC release, the basis for Pocketnow running the story is because they have visited XDA-developers and are quoting bunch of us!
the story makes this statement...
A statement from the company’s European division explains, “we have taken immediate steps to implement a solution in our production process to prevent this issue from happening in the future.”
Where's the official statement reference link??
There's been no recall, there's nothing from HTC to enforce your warranty in the store.
Maybe it gets released over the next few days, who knows. a little skeptical for now though.

Lol that still upsets me to this day that they would say something like that to the consumers who buy their products. What were they thinking? Did they really think we'd buy that response?

dude so many of them did. I have so many iSheep friends who argued that there was no hardware problem.
I like Apple, they build quality hardware, but the degree to which Jobs utilized his Reality Distortion Field was obnoxious.
I sincerely hope it died with him.
Just spoke to HTC tech support over the phone. He didn't give me an exact date but he was very furious at AT&T because they're clearly the ones holding the software update for our phone back. He must have mentioned AT&T and "other players in the pot" atleast 5 times in our 20 minute conversation.
The best i got out of him "it's at the very end" and "just wait a few weeks".

So this is confusing, is HTC correct in telling you that a software release is coming to fix this, or is pocketnow correct by stating its hardware(Not confirm by anyone else except pocketnow)
We keep referring to this "WiFi issue" as one topic, but like I speculated earlier, there's 2 issues going on here, antenna conection which is hardware, & 2.4ghz frequency clash with blue tooth.
These are to unrelated problems.
