I got a female mini hdmi to female hdmi adapter and an hdmi cable and hooked up to my TV. I got a notification on the Xformer and full black screen on the TV at times. Then I got 'Not Support!' on my Vizio 37 inch.
Then I tried hooking it to a BenQ 24" which again causes the notification in the transformer, but no output at all. The screen just shows blue.
I then tried the same mini hdmi adapter hdmi cable combination on my Canon camcorder and it worked perfectly. I tried swapping the HDMI cable with the one in use on my TV and that didn't help.
Is there any chance this is a cheap hdmi-mini hdmi adapter issue since the Xformer is detecting the plug in? Should I make a try of buying another one? Anyone get a cheap cable / adapter anywhere that you got working really well preferably with a Vizio?
Thanks in advance!
Same issue. No luck on my plasmas but my lcds work just fine
Both the tv and the screen I tried out were lcds. Should I try buying a mini to full hdmi cable? This is a major issue for me since i was planning to get rid of the broken screen notebook now connected to my TV and use the tablet to play web video.
Let me clarify. When i said not working on two TVs that is all the TVs i have. I haven't gotten an output to anything so far. But the tablet is detecting when i plug in the mini hdmi adapter.
I'm getting the same problem on a DLP HDTV... my archos tablet did output, but not the TF... I also get a connection notification in Honeycomb.

Interesting...
My Panasonic plasma did not work either, but my Vizio LCD in the bedroom did.
So is this a software issue? If it works on one TV, it must work on another...

Mine worked OK with our Samsung LCD TV, don't suppose that really helps you much but thought I'd mention it.
I have a mini hdmi to full hdmi cable and it refuses to work with my Panasonic Viera plasma, but works fine on a cheap no-name LCD. Not quite sure why
Works fine on my LG E2770V. I will try it out on my Panasonic 50" G10 and respond back.
I tried again with the same mini to full hdmi converter but with a different HDMI cable. It works but grainy as hell and way overscanned, and failed as soon as I tried playing videos. I think the extra adapter and making an extra connection point is not helping. I have ordered another single piece cable with good reviews from Amazon.
Well this is bittersweet... It's good to see I'm not alone having these issues with HDMI connection.
I bought the appropriate cable yesterday (Monstercable) and hooked it up when I got home. The TF had no problem recognizing that it was connected, but the popup notification cannot be clicked. My Sony Bravia 47" is also not recognizing the connection as I cannot switch the input to the one plugged into the TF.
I can only assume this is a software issue and will be fixed (hopefully) with a FOTA.
Does anyone have any suggestions or is there any way to get ASUS to weigh in on this issue. One of the many reasons I went with the TF was because of its HDMI output capabilities. The little popup that asks to display TF screen on the TV is a HUGE tease!!!!
At what resolution does the TF output?
Is this possible that some TV do not support that resolution?
My adapter is on its way from HK. Hopefully it will work with my TVs.
Just another confirmation that my Eee Pad outputs to my Sony Bravia LCD just fine, but refuses to output at all to my Panasonic Viera LCD... Annoyingly I bought the cable for the Viera!
Here's Asus' smart a$$ reply, which gives no solution to our problem:
Thank you for contacting ASUS Customer Service.
The resolution would be limitted to 720P,that's design of Andriod.
Wish you good luck! I do appreciate for your feedback!
–-----------------
I should point out that my TV supports up to 1080i, so this really shouldn't be a problem. I would have appreciated more help from their tech support :/

Just an update.
I bought an mini-hdmi to hdmi adapter.
My TF hdmi out works perfectly with both my plasma TVs: 720P Panasonic Viera, and a 1080p Pioneer Kuro.

I just recently purchased a mini hdmi adapter to hdmi adapter from mono price. I tired connecting the cable to my TV and I get no response from either the TV or the TF. I have a Panasonic Vierra Plasma. Shouldn't I at least get some kind of notification on the TF? Is there something I should enable first that I am missing?

I did not have to enable anything on the TF. You should see a notification icon on th TF when you connect the hdmi cable.
You can try this:
Connect the cable to the TV.
Turn on the TV and swith to the correct input.
Connect the other end of the cable to the TF.
You should see a notification on the TF, and picture should show on the TV.
I was wondering if you have a video on your note, can you connect the note to a television to watch?

So I get this right, the HDMI adapter needs to be powered externally for it to work?

I haven't tried it but maybe a pricey but elegant solution could be using the Samsung AllShare Cast Wireless Hub (info is here).
No cables at all!
To use a VGA projector you'd again need an HDMI to VGA connector. But this time it would be attached to the hub, that is powered by itself by its cable.
This answer my original ancient question: "Is it possible to send the display signal to a projector through wifi?". And the answer is (apparently): "YES!"
I've seen a video where the hub was used to send to a TV set the images of a race game, while playing with it. No evident lag at all.
I wonder if there could be a similar device made by some third party (-> less expensive).

Just recently I had the projector with VGA cable but discovered that the projector had the second, HDMI port, so I quickly connected the AllShare cast dongle to HDMI and the projected screen quality was even better.

I just got my Allsharecast dongle in the mail today, and I must say LAG is this things middle name!
If you play any fast paced game it will either lag or become blurry to give smoother playback, Im not too happy this thing costed me $100, fedels like it should have costed $40
Probably a bit of a stretch here but if anyone can help I'm sure it's the XDA community.
I have the AllShare Cast Dongle and it works fantastic. Use it with HDMI connection regularly, also use an HDMI to VGA Adapater. I purchased an HDMI to composite adaptor but can't get that to work.
http://www.amazon.com/Sanoxy-HDMI-C...qid=1350066401&sr=1-1&keywords=hdmi+composite
I've done some searching and have found people with AppleTV and have also used the adapter with my laptop, so I know it works. The problem though is that it seems the AllShare Cast Dongle doesn't turn on when it's plugged into this device.
I can get the tablet to connect momentarily but it always disconnects and the device turns off. Anyone used something with the AllShare Cast Dongle to convert the HDMI to composite? Could you share what it is?
Any suggestions on why this setup might not be working?
Can you please confirm the model number of your allshare cast dongle?

HDMI to VGA works fine. OP states that and that the problem is using the dongle with an HDMI to composite adaptor.
What HDMI to VGA adapter are you using? I can't get mine to work, but it works fine if I plug the HDMI.directly into a TV.

when you use the allshare cast dongle the phone gets hot??? I need to know because i want one of this dongles, because when using the mhl adapter the phone gets hot.
I wonder if the dongle need to handshake with the TV HDMI port, if you are using a VGA adapter it wont be able to do this which is why you get a picture for a moment then lose it?. The allshare case Dongle isnt meant to be used that way so I'm not too surprised it doesn't work.

I've never experienced my tab getting hot from using the allshare cast dongle.
Might be getting hot because of the power drain through the wired connector, but the allshare cast dongle uses wireless connection. If your tab/phone doesn't get hot using wifi then it won't using dongle....

I think maybe you have got a fake hdmi converter. So i suggest you should buy a new high quality and original hdmi converter from this professional website: www.hdgenius.com

I want to watch movies on my RT on my downtime from work. I have an apartment with a flat screen TV that has HDMI, VGA, all the red, white, and yellow pins, USB ports. I hate cables.

Bluetooth won't be high enough bandwidth for any sort of respectable video feed (nor does the RT support streaming out to it), and I'm not aware of any wifi streaming that works from the RT, unless you have a 360 on the TV.
You'll need to attach some computer or game console to the TV, and find an app in the store that does wifi streaming out.

I have been trying the same thing. I think our best bet would be DLNA tv/adapter. I have bought the adapter and it is not working.

That's cool! Just whish that the entire screen could be sent to the TV via DLNA, I mean the startscreen or an app or a game. As it is now it has to be built in to the app as I understand it, I would like to be able to clone the screen no matter what app I'm using.
You can do that with a simple micro hdmi to hdmi cable.

Yes, but the idea here was to use WiFi and DLNA to do it wireless.
Has wireless hdmi been developed enough to just be a small adapter on your tablet?

Does the Moto X support HDMI out? I tried the MHL adapter (supported by Samsung) and it does not plug in the micro-USB port. I know I can go the chromecast route, but just curious if there is HDMI out capability? And what adapter has worked for others?
Thanks!
It doesn't appear to support MHL. I connected my adapter with and without using the power port on the side to my MXP and no video comes out.
The adapter does produce video with my S3.

MHL does require extra hardware, so no, a ROM will not be able to enable this.
World is full of strange people. Because you do not need to entangle yourself with wires, they (moto) gave us screencast feature, and now people are asking about WIRES again!
TV sets now are coming with Screencast support but if you do not have this feature in TV then read next line....
I am casting (broadcasting) everything (movies, games, android screen, etc) on my 32inch LCD TV, even without wifi router.

I have a Samsung 55 LED that I got about a year ago. I go into the Cast->More Settings, Select my TV, once connected, then tab for Wireless display. I don't have HSI at home, so no Router in between.
This allows me to mirror anything from NetFlix, Sports streaming, Hulu, etc on the big screen.

No. Pandora is for TV connected to TV via HDMI and phone via wifi.
For car, its only Bluetooth solution. Seems you are trying to confuse yourself.
