[Q] Is video-out possible?

Is there any way to get video-out working on the mesmerize and showcase or is the hardware just not there?

there is no hardware anywhere on the board that supports video out. if you had the time, money and knowledge to open it up, put the right connectors and hardware, ports, everything and then write drivers to make it work then it could be possible potentially.

I don't think it's possible, but at the same time I'm really not sure. I haven't worked much with it. Just doesn't seem possible.

What Rom is compatible with car dock?

I recently bought the oem Samsung infuse car dock. The dock is suppose to automatically switch the phone into car mode once the app is downloaded. Well it doesn't do this. I am currently rooted on stock Rom 2.3.5. I understand this function is built into the stock Rom for the skyrocket and may be built into a different build. What I am looking for is automatic switching to car mode once inserted into dock and audio out via the charging port. I know there is a Rom out there that supports the car dock. And I'm ready to flash it. Does anyone have any idea of a Rom that supports the car dock functions?

What exactly does this mean?

I am curious too, what is he reporting and who is he reporting to? Is he some kind of a mole for the fbi or the cia?

He thinks he's a mod, just look at all his post. They are all 1 word post. What's the word you say, reported. He's reporting to either prbassplayer or kennethpen. As for mole, yes, he's got nothing better to do than just come on here and post 1 word responses.
I don't see how this is in violation of anything. He's asking a question in the Q & A section. As for searching there's nothing on here that answers this question. The other theads talk about using apks.
Now to answer this question, have not seen a rom with a built in features, the rom I'm on came with Robin from the play store.

Also if it wasn't for my reporting this place would be chaos as noobs would post everywhere not search not read not follow the rules and I for one won't have it

That thread talks about apks hes asking for roms that have the built in feature. Once again you jump on people instead of reading and understanding what's being said or asked.

What app did you download?
Its not necessarily a "ROM" that makes the car dock "work" . Yes there is an option to set audio out in the dock settings for samsung stock roms(though it has yet to be functional). I use the dock in conjunction with google car home(when i insert the phone into the dock it automatically sets it in car mode and you can customize what apps you want on it), one of the threads has info on it so search my friend.
Entropy512(Elite Recognized Developer for Infuse 4g) provides some insight into the dock
Entropy512 said:
In the case of Infuse and other devices which have proper dock support, the dock is specifically detected by the device based on the value of the resistor between the ID pin and ground. The state of USB pins 2 and 3 don't matter as these aren't even routed to the device - those pins get routed by the dock to the audio output jack, and the device routes audio to those pins when the ID resistor indicates a dock is present.
In this case the Skyrocket appears not to be handling dock presence at all.

If you download the MajickXperian Rom it will automatically open an app when a certain device is connected so I would guess that it will work perfectly. It opens Play Music everytime I plug in my headphones without a hitch.

Quick OT here, because I've seen this enough and it makes me laugh every time:

Wifi tether? (solved)

I'm having trouble using Wifi tether. When ever I try to connect I get an error that says "WTF!! Your phone is automatically shutting off the connection" lol it was pretty funny first time I saw it. The wifi tether signal still shows up on the devices I connect to but they don't register it. Is there any work around or fix? I used the roms codename and beam for this btw.

which rom your using? lots of ics rom has wifi tether issues.
cm9 and aokp is okay,

I don't answer not becuz I dislike you.....but more becuz I don't tether,so I'm of no use for an answer on this subject.
As far as having alot of enemies...lol I think I've got ya beat there....

I used WiFi tether on CM9 with no problem at all. My usual Internet connection was down, and I used tethering as a backup. It took a bit more time to connect to the phone than to the router, but it connected in under a minute and worked just fine.

Lol I was taught that there are 3 types of people in this world....
1-that are suck ups.
2-those who like being sucked up to.
3-those like me that can't stand either one.
Im not supposed to wifi tether my device according to my new no cap contract so if that's important to you make sure you are aware of that when it comes time to renew or upgrade

I wouldn't say you guys are hated and or have alot of enemies.
Your merely misunderstood,and it doesn't help when there are the few with forked tongues that twist and manipulate what you say.
I see you two have some valid issues most of the time,but its hard to make your points when you are dealing with a mass amount of people that aren't educated enough to see them.

Going back to gb solved the prob for me oh how i missed this battery life. (btw bh the best guide to go back to gb from ics is fbs old kd1 guide using odin. Super easy and takes just a few mins. It has been the difinitive unbrick guide for me too. In my opinion one click has a high learning curve! You should point people to the link on your one click post as an alternative)

yea but before that you need to set up command prompts and downloading a jig file program with it and some other stuff. with odin there's no need to use command prompts, you just download the tar pit and csc files and flash away. Practically unbrickable even if you take the usb during an odin transfer. I'm not saying one click doesn't work but I think it throws people off

You are confusing installing heimdall fully instead of using a one click. Only thing you need for a one click is java and to install the drivers. Nothing hard at all.

lol I think you're right..let me rephrase then. I view Odin just another option to root, flash, and unbrick your device. Why not include it as an option, I don't think it's obsolete just yet.

i see we r making headway here.
How much stuff do ya really need on your comp other than a simple one click odin program that will do what's needed without having to go look up another and so on just to get rooted stock....I've had issues with installing Java...my comp doesn't seem to like it or I don't seem to know what I'm doing with it....either way gremlin remover is one simple easy dl and 1 simple click that takes less than about 3 minutes to do whats needed

Yeah I have an s3 also and that connects fine, it has to be something with the infuse, cause I can't flash anything cant update my bootloader or go back to stock.... anyone know if there's some part of the software that can be wiped or something to fix the usb problem...?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app

I've been in the same boat for a few months. Charge yes. Download mode yes. PC see phone on USB no. Power button failed and replaced it. Asked the place that fixed it about the USB problem and they replaced the USB connection but this didn't help. They said could be a bad USB controller. I've flashed multiple ROMs with full wipe and same story. New USB cables don't help. It seems it must be software related. Have removed all Samsung drivers from my PC and reloaded to no avail. I'd really like to return to stock or GB because I miss taking movies and listening to streaming music without chop. And I think I'm getting old and lazy. Fair likelihood I'll get an S3 or S4 soon and give the infuse to my kid. Maybe I'll something bigger...
