Will it work on the latest CyanogenMod 7? i am very intrested in installing it on my wind g2x, and need to know its good sometimes to put a movie on the phone and watch it on my 1080p t.v. with family, please let me know ! thanks
Works fine for me, in 1080p along with audio

The only caveat IIRC is that you can't manually change the resolution in the phone. It just defaults to Automatic so if you have to specify a resolution to make things work, then you can't.
Actually for me it works better than weapon or other stock roms. I have a 1080p Sony LCD and with stock based roms I get overscaling. With CM7 it fits perfect on my screen!

I have a samsung 1080p tv the hdmi runs good except for small bug it shutoffs indeterminably every 10 min or so. I am running latest eaglesblood can someone help me understand why this is happening? and offer a fix?
would changing the ratio size on tv be a problem of sorts?
or is this a bug due to cm7? i really do not wish to revert to stock rom and further more do not wish to lower quality to 720 if avoidable
It's a CM7 problem.

update
reverted back to ota update by nvflash now there is a fine line on top of screen also set to aumtomatic res and tried 1080 movie didnt cut out but tried camera app and that sure did flicker on and off
I use hdmi almost daily to stream netflix and other stuff so I need this in a rom. I really liked miui but hdmi doesn't work. So which rom would be best

Any stock ROM. Weapon G2x is based on stock and it's really good, I'd recommend that.

I don't think Weapon would work for him since its 2.3.3, if he's trying to use netflix.
...unless netflix is working now for Weapon which if that's true when did that happen?
Edit 9/22/11: netflix has received an update and it works w/ weapon now!

You are sol. The roms that work with Netflix don't work with HDMI and the roms that have HDMI working Netflix don't work.

Its a fantastic rom and I know netflix works on it, and a friend of mine says he is using the same rom and that HDMI is also working on it.
Sorry cant say for sure (cant find my HDMI cable to try for you)
hope this helps!
CM7 nightly 143 works for me for Netflix and HDMI to my 1080p tv. At a friends house I couldn't get it to work (the HDMI) and after a lot of digging realized that CM7 HDMI only works on 1080, he had a 720 tv. CM hasn't built the HDMI setting that were in the stock rom, which exist in a lot of other roms though, like miui and xboarder, which netflix might work with if your tv is 720. Good luck.
CM7 works with HDMI
I just rooted and installed CM7 yesterday. I installed Netflix and am using it at this very moment with the HDMI connection.
G2x with CM7 2.3.5
noob...sorry about the lawn thing
I am running CM7 nightly build 146. My HDMI works flawlessly with netflix, but when I try to stream an avi/divx file it drops out. It comes back for a minute or so and drops again. I am thinking of changing to trigger, but other than the HDMi the phone is kick ass. Decisions, decisions...
Please don't yell at me. I'm sensitive
Does anyone know if HDMI works on CM7? I have 2 other stock G2x and they all work but for some reason they don't work on 1080p, you have to put it on 720p even if its a 1080p TV.
HDMI works on CM7, but you can't adjust the settings. It looks good on my 1080p Sony Bravia though

It works well in cm7 but when watching videos it cuts. It's good for photos and emulators.

I'm having that problem w/the latest Eagle's Blood.
same problem
Worked fine stock rom. Cuts out cm7. Pretty much unusable trigger 0822. But my trigger mod with faux kernel O/C 1100 scored an AnTuTu benchmark of 5729. Far enough above stock that I can live without hdmi!
I dont want to buy a cable unless im sure i can use it
no if you need to use hdmi then you need a stock rom
You can use different ones they work...cyanoger is the only one that didn't work for me

The hdmi port works for me. Of course, the scaling options from the stock rom were not available, but I played a few games like Riptide and Nova 2 on my television. I also watched a video I had recorded. The cable was cheap on Amazon. Worth it.
It kinda works for me. when i play hd content or hd videos, like the tegra video, it cut off and restarted every few seconds

It works for me also but no available settings.

Got the CM7 build on my Skyrocket and it's great. But my camera won't record widescreen video and only shoots widescreen pics at 2.5M. Am I missing something here?
Sent from my SPH-P100 using xda premium
I'm seeing the same thing here using CM 7.2.
Okay. So we have two cases of this. I'd say that gives this question some merit. I should mention I'm using the dag kernel. Any ideas people?

Okay. So does anyone know what's going on here? I can't shoot widescreen photos or videos. This is a really big problem.

I have the same problem. I have CM7.2 v4 and the latest Da_g kernel. I did a little more digging, and found out that when recording "HD" in video mode, the resolution is actually 640x480. That's why it doesn't look widescreen. If you switch the resolution to "Hi", it records 720x480, but at least the aspect ratio is correct. To get 8mp pictures, you need to make sure you switch the resolution in camera setting.
I did several complete wipes and reinstall without any luck. Was able to get all the other problems, such as LTE APN and audio working. So this is the only thing not working. Any help is much appreciated!
Okay. I shot some video using the various settings, and I see what you're talking about with the "Hi" setting and 480p(WS) video. But there is no way to shoot 720p/1080p(WS) video or 6.5MP(WS) pictures using this ROM as-is (at least not that I'm aware of). The stock Skyrocket ROM allows 720p/1080p(WS) video recording and resolution settings of varying aspect ratio for photos.
Where's the love people? I didn't put CM7 on my Skyrocket just to take it for a spin and/or play around with it. I knew what I was doing and I wanted CM7 on my phone. I've been a devoted Cyanogen user every since I flashed my NOOK Color with it so long ago. I just want the ROM that I love and trust so much to properly interface with my device's camera and user. Is that asking too much? I flashed my phone with CM7 to add features, not to remove them.
I'm all out of ideas here. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Anyone... please!

I think it's something we'll just have t owait for an official CM7/CM9 release. The dev who put this together has his own Skyrocketeer ROM. So this is kind of a hobby for him, which I can appreciate. The official CM devs are probably busy on CM9.
If I had enough posts, I'd put it in the thread in the dev section. That *may* prompt a better response. Until then, I think we just need to decide if it's good enough for what everyday use.
