Hey there Note'able people
I made my own small dockstation with a HDMI connector underneath. This means that when it's said, the Note is connected with HDMI.
However, when set, the tablet suddenly runs 'Infinite Painter'.... which i don't want ofcourse...
I had the same problem with tuneIn Radio, which i uninstalled for that reason.
Is there a place where i can see which app gets a go when my tablet docks?
I thought about Tasker, but i want my tablet to do nothing when i place it in the dock, not run some action...
Get invisible dock from Google play.

I went to use HDMI output for the first time on the transformer today. I plugged it in, received the notification icon that HDMI was connected and the audio on the TF muted (redirected to the HMDI port), but I see no video or sound on the TV.
I know the cable is ok because it worked with my archos tablet.
The cable is pluggged in all the way and I've tested on two ports.
Any suggestions?

Hi
I also have that kind of behaviour on the TF side its detecting mini HDMI but it didnt show anything on the TV or monitor side.
But I didnt give up I try on several monitor in my office and manage to find 1 and only 1 monitor it works and showing everything properly its DELL 24" monitor
dont give up and keep trying.
So this feature sucks:-(

I have the exact same problem! Do I really have to root and apply a custom rom to get this feature?
i tried today to hook up my hdmi with 1/2 success. I get picture but no sound...
HDMI was fixed for me in one of the past ASUS updates - maybe with Honeycomb 3.2...
My biggest annoyance, however, is the fact that the bottom bar gets cutoff on my TV, so I can't access the back, home, multitask and menu buttons when using my bluetooth keyboard/mouse... kind of a pain.

What you need is custom kernel, not custom rom. The problem is compatibility issue with certain name brand tv's. I highly recommend clemsyn kernel. It's compatible with most tv's out there.

He's right. I had the same problem with hdmi out and solved it with clemsyns kernel.
But then came another problem, video subtitles doesn't show on the tv u.u
I just flashed Clemsyn's latest, Version 22A. Still nothing on my 32" Vizio, and I get glitchy static and half functionality on my Insignia 32" *Best Buy Brand*. And what does work, I don't have the bar on the bottom either Anyone have expirence with Vizio? I duno if it's the TV but from what I have seen Vizio doesn't play nice with any PC type inputs
Would it be possible to HDMI out to monitor then use a bluetooth keyboard and mouse with the Droid Charge? If so, what works best?
Thx
Actually i think with ice cream the newest android revision,there will be support for things like gamepads and keyboard.
Cool thing that, now i can crank one out to redtube on the big screen much more efficiently

Does the HDMI out mirror as in display on the tv exactly what is on the device screen regardless if it is games, movies, internet etc. Or is it like the droidx and only plays movies on the tv and not show what playing on the device.
Reason I am asking is I might pick one up today before the store closes.
edit...
just picked up a charge and yea it does mirror the display.
Hey just wanted to share that are skyrockets can use BLuetooth mice and keyboards.
they pair and connect and works great,
i run a streaming server from home and take my phone with me everywhere. i like to listen to my music, tv shows, and movies and its awesome streaming them through my phone.
but most of all its about the fact that they hook up to our HDTV's you do need the MHL adapter found one on amazon for 8.99 + shipping =12.89 works great
also found a mini bluetooth keyboard with a dpad on it. cost 49.99 + shipping
i connect my phone to my friends tv anytime i stay at a hotel ect.
are phones work great as a little theater pc. hook it up to a tv. use the mouse and keyboard to operate it and you can do anything with it watch movies in this case the ones at my house on my theater pc i have access to. not everyone will have that but you can still have movies on sd card ect. I even play angry birds on my 42" sitting on the couch with this. love the new Skyrocket and wanted to share. didnt know how many people were aware of the keyboard and mouse being able to connect to our phones and were able to make our phone function with them. just like a pc.

How does the mouse pad work? I'm assuming that a mouse pointer doesn't just pop up or does it just scroll and such.

You do get a mouse pointer, I have a very similar keyboard. They're super handy too

I picked mine up from eBay last year. Works amazing. I have had it linked to my playbook, MacBook Pro, and all my phones to date. Just wish the trackpad was a bit bigger. Thats the only complaint.
I bought the Mini Rii over a year ago, and maybe I've got a bad one, maybe I'm hard on it, but it didn't last. The quality isn't great, and once the battery starts to die it gets wonky. In the beginning recharging fixed it and or cycling the power switch, but now it takes several key presses to make it wake and respond.
The power cycling wasn't a big deal, and I didn't mind, until the microscopic switch's thumb knob fell off and was lost forever. Now I need a tooth pick or paper clip to cycle the power.
Another thing it does is lose it's mind on the cap lock. Sometimes it will cap lock, without the cap lock light on, and you have to turn cap locks on (light comes on) to get lower case. If that makes any sense.
The touch pad is also less responsive now too.
It didn't cost much, but I still expected it to hold up better than it did. This is just my experience, so take it as you will.
At this point I have a half working PC remote, and great laser pointer for the cat.
So I have the tf700 tablet and an Iphone, are there any apps that let me controle my tablet through my phone? For instance if I watch youtube I can switch video and stuff, not just pause. Would be really awsome if I could controle the whole interface with my phone but I doubt that is possible.
Now, this makes me really curious: How do you use your tablet that you want to use your phone as a remote???
I usually have it in my hand, on my lap - somewhere in arms reach definitely...
Do you hang your tab on the wall across the room? You definitely have better eyes than I do, dude
LOL

A 10" tablet with HDMI can be connected to a projector to produce a 100" picture on the wall across the room. No need for eagle eyes.

I've done that a few times to give a presentation. You still don't need to use your phone as a remote for that, though...
what is so hard to understand? I want to switch between youtube videos while my tablet is connected to my tv, instead of getting my ass of the couch I want to do this on my phone, which happens to be an iphone, thus my problem.

If you have a jailbroken iphone look for WeBe++ in cydia. It turns the phone into a mouse track pad, keyboard, and ps3 controller. It works over wifi or even better, bluetooth. The app is also available for non jailbroken phones in the app store as just WeBe. I have never used this version but it seems like maybe it would only work over wifi at the time and I wanted the versatility of bluetooth. I use it when hooking the tablet to the television to watch movies.

according to the description this app doesn't support android, only mac and pc, which is normal to understand and there are other better apps for this controlling mac and pc purpose
btw it's rated 3 stars https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/webe-bluetooth-mouse/id348874608?mt=8
@OP: i don't think there's an app for this,
I doubt such an app exists, cobsidering tjat Apple wont let anything even so much as referencing to Android near them... (there is a hilarious topic in General about them censoring even the word Android in the comments on their appstore... :laugh: )

Like I said. I have never used the version in the Apple App Store. I know that version doesn't have as much access to the iphone system as the jailbroken version does. But when I use it on my jailbroken phone, the phone acts just like the track pad on the infinity's keyboard dock. Mouse pointer and all.
That reminds me, all that battery and work is a bit overkill since you can also simply use a wireless mouse comnected to the keyboard dock. ...

I saw a YouTube video of it plugged into the Note 4. I wasn't too impressed. Basically, the image on the screen was in the shape of the smartphone and not resized to fit the screen like my old setup would do (DROID RAZR MAXX/HD STATION). If I do get the Smart Dock, is there a setting that will fit the monitor size in full screen? Will I have Keyboard/Mouse functionality? Would like to hear from someone that actually uses the Smart Dock and knows first-hand.
Yep, I use nova to set the screen to lock onto oreintation and yes keyboards work ill see tomorrow if i can get some screenshots of me using it
App called set orientation is what I use
I went ahead and ordered one off of Amazon. Thanks, everyone. My PC motherboard just died so I'm going to try and live off of this for a little while until I can build another PC. It was time, 7 years old.
EDIT: I was first having problems seeing my mouse pointer. After plugging and unplugging, then replugging it in, it works. I'm using a Logitech Unifying Device to plug in a K800 keyboard and a mouse (I forgot the model of the mouse I have).

For some reason, my dock only worked once. Now, my keyboard and mouse keep connecting and disconnecting. How can can I fix this? Also, my car app (Carhome Ultra) wanted to open when I just wanted my phone to just mirror the launcher. I also no longer have full screen. Could I have a faulty dock? Should I FDR my phone?

If you use wired mouse, screen should automatically change orientation from portrait to landscape once mouse is plugged in (with monitor attached to smart dock).

I really don't understand this, but after unplugging/replugging in, AGAIN, it worked. In fact, I'm on it, now.
The only thing I'm a bit unhappy with is the resolution. The letters look HUGE. Is there a way to change the resolution? I can't seem to find it.
