Ok so I purchased this tablet used and yesterday was the first time I tried hooking it up via the micro hdmi to my hdtv...nothing worked...I'm running cromi Rom and even did a fresh stock Rom install...the tablet does not even recognize it's plugged into the hdmi...I'm using a media bridge cable as seen here

Could the cord be the problem...does the cord have to be at least 1.4?...I'm really hoping it not the tablet ...any suggestions?

I would try at LEAST 1 more cable to ensure its not the tablet. I bought one from monoprice and it works great. I can't post a link b/c I'm a new member but google search "15ft 34AWG Standard HDMI® Cable With Ethernet w/Ferrite Core - HDMI® Micro Connector male to HDMI® Connector male - Black" on monoprice and you'll see it.
Good luck and post back!
It may be the cable. Most smartphones have micro HDMI output, so test one. If you have a Radio Shack they sell a HDMI to micro HDMI adapter that you could use on one of your other cables.

Can't solve anything without another cable imo, bring it back and exchange it for another one.

*If* it is only a problem is Panasonic TVs I would not pester Asus to fix it. I would pester Panasonic to fix it. That being said if there are other manufacturers with the same issues then it is not Panasonic, but Asus who have screwed the standards up.
I've just tried same thing. Cheap cable from ebay. Hooked up my canon pocket camera and it worked fine on a Samsung TV. Tried the TF and nothing. Also tried a restart while cable was still connected but nothing.
Im on Prime 1.6.
I just tried again pushing the cable in properly this time on the TF. It works fine - hooray.

It would work, but the dock only supports up to USB 2.0, and the proprietary connector made by Asus to fit directly to the tablet is only USB 2.0. So unfortunately it would only work at USB 2.0 speed I believe.

I'm using a 2.5 SATA 3.0 in an aftermarket metal case I bought.
The tab sees the drive, yet the file transfer is slooooooowwww...
I don't know why.
I would like to use USB Thumb-Flash Drives like they are doing with the Nexus 7 with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. It is the GT-P3113 using recent CM10 - Android 4.1.1. I have tried the USB connector as noted below to connect the tablet and with its OEM cord to a USB drive and does not work or recognize it. I have used other drives and have tried using Stickmount app. I have tried to search for specific info, found some post that the idea is possible but can't find any details how. I have seen a possible connector USB OTG but don't know the difference. Any details as to how would be much appreciated thanks.

You need a USB OTG cable (the gender changer may work, but im not sure it will enable host mode, the otg cable definitely does). You can get them for two pounds / dollars on ebay. I am using mine with a 32gb usb stick.

I picked up a one point five terabyte Seagate drive for 90 bucks from Costco last week mainly for my lappy but I was wondering is there a way to physically hook it to my tab?FTP is of course what I've been using but what about when there's no wifi?

Are all 30-pin USB connectors created equally, or is an OTG cable different?
They are different. OTG has ground and sense shortened.
If your drive is powered from USB beware that this will not work. Drive must be externally powered.

Thanks. Sorry - what do you mean "sense"?
Maybe a USB splitter?

I got a cheap powered USB hub from Amazon (like http://www.amazon.co.uk/BG-Network-...35?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1354711206&sr=1-35) and it works fine ... just ensure you are taking a charger with sufficiant power to support your HD!
Hey all new to HTC and wondering about this phone and HDMI out.. It seems that there is a or was a special cable with the m7.. Does that same cable work?
Thanks

Well, this is from the specs:
HTC Connect Micro-USB 2.0 (5-pin) port with mobile high- definition video link (MHL) for USB or HDMI connection (Special cable required for HDMI connection.)
I just bought a MHL cable from Amazon and I'll just try it if no one else has yet. Worse case I return it.

I use a standard MHL adapter (non-HTC) and it works just fine. Here is the one I use: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875994879
As I said...Works perfectly fine with my M8.
any idea if my Samsung one will work?
(don't have a HDMI screen or TV to test it)
