I am seriously considering that the tab 2 7.0 needs to be returned for lack of HDMI support. I have called Samsung three times concerning HDMI or TV out support, they told me it is coming. But the tab 2 10.1 now has HDMI support, so I am thinking that 7.0 support might never materialize.
Has anyone else decided to return thier 7.0 for lack of HDMI support? Has anyone tried and been successful? I bought mine from Amazon the first week.
I dont understand why people buy these devices and start crying about hdmi support, honestly who gives a crap?
In reality how many times will you exactly use the feature? Netflix? Xfinity? Because last i seen xbox 360 has the apps.
Unless you doing powerpoint presentations then its a pointless feature. A tablet is a "portable device" meaning its meant for you to carry it around for portable entertainment, i highly doubt you gonna carry a hdmi cable around and plug it into every tv you see.....

Don't own an Xbox and do not subscribe to Netflix. I do have a lot of movies that are watched on my tab and when visiting friends they sometimes want to share a movie viewing together, when they are not pretending to be a soldier or a badman of course. There are times when stuck in a hotel room before a regional meeting and I need to review a presentation that bigger would be better. But the main reason I would consider returning the tab is because it was sold with HDMI support.
Imagine if your game would not allow you to get the BIG gun you spents weeks trying to earn.
Okay, just kidding a little.
:laugh:
Didn't know we were supposed to have HDMI support. Any idea how they added the support to the 10.1" model?
I had a microHDMI spot on my Droid Charge and never used it and didn't know anyone that used it more than one or two times just to see if it worked. IMO, it's more of a gimmick than anything else. I would think that using the AllShare app that comes with the tablet would be easier to use than playing around with HDMI cables.
Well if you knew you needed hdmi then you should of gotten one that has support for it. But instead you whine about not having it. If you needed it that bad there are plenty other tablets. But instead you opted to get the cheapest tablet on the market and hoped to get support for it later. Its stupid to start a thread about an item you returning anyway. Just my opinion.
And to add hdmi is not the only way to share a movie at a friends house, and most hotels still have not upgraded there tube tvs so its still pointless.

Truly dude !!! i don't think anybody is whinning, The first manual clearly stated that the tab2 7.0 supported this feature, nobody made this crap up!!! Samsung did, so anybody that purchased the TAB2 with this feature in mind is screwed!!! now what? Return it, call Samsung and complain!!! Why does a customer have to go through this crap...seriously. So please don't give an opinion if you don't know the facts!!!
Thanks,
I would have returned this too. I am looking for a nice cheap tab with hdmi out to play stuff on my big screen tv. Did samsung release the fix
get an android set top box. The cost of the cable will be half of those boxes anyway

Well, this doesn't help the OP at all. Who are you to question how people use their devices? A tablet is a multimedia device that should have video output, and most of us do give a crap about it. That's why some of us purchased the first Galaxy Tab 7 CDMA/GSM. So what if the stupid xbox has apps?... a $60 DVD player has apps. They aren't portable. And, yes, we do carry HDMI cables around- like when we travel and connect the device to a hotel TV. But, I guess if you stay in your room all day playing video games, you don't really travel.

Another useless response. Don't get me wrong- I have a Logtitech Revue and love the Google TV. But, again, it isn't portable.
The lack of video output on the newer tablets is what keeps me from buying any of them. I still stick with my old SPH-P100 for it's features that the new ones don't have. I honestly don't see how these companies decide that HDMI out- either directly or indirectly- is worth the "savings". I personally would pay the extra $10 it takes to add it to the tablet. Hell, my Rezound is HDMI-out capable. Why can't a tablet have the same feature? Especially a 7" tablet, which is seriously too small for more than one person to watch anything. Sometimes you just need to show stuff on the big screen.
Android is all about versatility- and cutting back on the hardware is just tying the OS's hands. The companies should let the consumers decide which features to use instead of forcing them to accept the limited ones they provide. There has to be a way to get an all-around great mid-size tablet with every useful feature for under $250.
So, in answer to the OP- no, the new tablet doesn't appear at all to have any video output. I don't even think the old docks work with the new tablets. Otherwise, I would suggest rooting and flashing a different ROM that would support video out using the old multimedia dock. I also see that there is nothing in the tablet's specs mentioning any type of video output... so if it did before, shame on Samsung for false advertising.
It is possible for Samsung to add video output with a firmware update and a hardware adapter... the question is, will they?
I only interested when using the Gtab2 as presentation device (using Wifi to laptop, and then laptop to projector)
There's no need for HDMI anyway, the cable is expensive & too short
ITs' pretty clear from Samsung's specs on the G Tab 2 .7 that it does not have the hardware for HDMI. If you had bothered to read any of the reviews you would have seen they dropped that hardware as a way to cut the cost. You can't fix it if it don't exist in the device.

But... but, the original manual said it DID had the support for HDMI.
When I bought my US GT-P3113 it was advertised as having HDMI by every website that had a pre-released review posted. I was not satisfied by the third party confirmation for HDMI support. So I placed calls to Samsung support asking for a PDF user guide or confirmation that the tab supported HDMI. They confirmed that it would support HDMI but that the online user guide was not available for download.
I bought my tab from Amazon for $249.00 full retail the first week that it was released. The manual that was enclosed with the tab did verify that HDMI was supported. I asked people on this forum to confirm that it worked with thier HDTV adapter. They answered and the answer was "it does not work". I called Samsung and they told me that a new adapter was on the way and that my tab would support HDMI soon.
I waited a few months and then it became apparent that HDMI would never be supported. I called Amazon for a refund and at first they refused until a supervisor was engaged and they approved a fulll refund instantly.
After not having my tab for a week I stopped by MicroCenter in my area and they had the US GT-P3113 for $199.00. I bought it from them and it had the updated manual which does not state support for HDMI (Build date 06/2012), I am happy with my tab and use DNLA with my Samsung LED TV, but I would still like HDMI support.
Well I wasn't around for pre-release hype, but as it stands now, the P3113 has no hardware inside to support this function. The P6200 and P6210 (Gtab 7 Plus) both have hardware and do support the function. Bottom line is you cannot make software support hardware that doesn't exist.

Sure, very easy! Just get the P1000 model of the tablet, and this accessory cable that they show. The Amazon link is in their blog post. But what does this video have to do with the Tab 2?

I am considering ordering one of these. Mele A1000G
I've been looking for a true Android solution for a set top box, and this seems like a great option. I don't have cable and will rely on this for all my TV needs. Currently, I have a Boxee Box and a Zeki Media Streaming Box, but I am not happy with the Zeki at all and I think the specs on this box look like a great replacement. The Boxee has worked pretty well for a year or so, but it;s starting to be too buggy for me. If anyone has any thoughts or experience with the Mele A1000G, I'd love to hear it.
Me too

I’ve also experienced the crash to AllWinner splash screen with another AllWinner A31 device (CS868) twice. I could only fix it by re-installing the firmware. I think there’s a problem with the way they currently handle the partitions.

I ended up ordering an MK808B instead. I opted for it because it has so much development support. After about a week with it, I was frustrated with the navigation on Netflix and Hulu. So, I returned it and just hooked up an old Gateway Core 2 Duo to my TV. I got this computer recently for $100 with a widescreen monitor, mouse, keyboard and speakers. So, in the end I ended up spending much less money and as much as I thought I wanted the Android box, the PC is working so much better than any other set top box I've ever used. I'm out of the market for anything new now.
if anyone else is still interested in this box. stay tuned mine is on the way from china. i'll update with a mini review
I bought this box after looking at others, the box has good hardware but the software is not optimized for it. The new firmware is still better but still not fully optimized. Mele need to work more on software, a lot of work is needed.

This TV-Box is completely unstable.
During the first hour of use revealed an inherent bugs. Device hangs and reboots spontaneously. Error messages arising that the application is not responding after each mouse click. LAN port does not work. The new firmware 1.2.5 & 1.2.7 does not solve the problem. The seller refused to bear the shipping fee of return which is expensive. The claim has been resolved, and AliExpress has made a full refund to me with no returning goods.

Bought on of these, can't read Chinese so just about.everything on it is being deleted. Honestly the windows 8 front launcher sucks. Download go launcher from google play. Netflix works as does xbmc for media sharing. Would be cool.to.see a new port for another themed rom. Took it.apart and found a spot that looks likes a.sata port connection. Maybe solder a port in the future and see if I can add.som.extra storage.

How about DTS passthrough and 1080p streaming did you tested it?
I wish this box can work as a miracast receiver, maybe in the future. The main guy at Mele said they have received a new sdk from allwinner and that will hopefully help them to get a better firmware

Mine arrived today, so far so good. What is really, I mean really odd:
BubbleUPNP: Not able to browse QNAP dlna directories
MX Player: Not able to fast forward.
Every other trash "media player or dlna browser" no problem.... That's really really odd...
Videos play nice even my 1080p videos. There is a miracast button, but only to send? Didn't tried it.
Most "that´s sad" thing: DTS-Passthrough ;( Don´t know how to get it work or if it will ever work... Any ideas?
If someone wants to let me check something (short video for example) let me know.
My opinion so far: VERY GOOD BOX! Someone wrote other manufactures try to trash the box, I would say right now: It really looks like that...
Edit: DTS-Passthrough seems to work. Receiver switches from analog to digital DTS when playing DTS content. But Im not quit sure because I live atm in a small room so i can´t play on all 7.1 boxes -_-
Edit2: Never XBMC possible (closed source) or someone signs the NDA and makes a custom XBMC if possible? But I dont know. But that would be awesome! But Plex is also VERY VERY nice and works well
Well ok after around two days with this box:
Never a closed source SoC again Samsung S3 is already a pain in the ass.... now this one. Excellent hardware / price / Speed / power consumption. (thats what die design target of the chip was I think) But it gets useless if no v(ideo) app can draw on this power because they dont open up there hardware decoding for videos.... even the onboard video player is not able to fast forward in video from streams.... what a joke... I really sad because on itselfs it looks nice, behaves nice, only one crash with playOn app which might be the app fault, and speed performance etc looks really well. I would rather keep that box instead of waiting for the minix x7 for another two month or so.... ;(
If anyone got a tip how to get fast forward in mx player for example on a 1080p video from upnp stream I would tryi it...
Aaaaand its gone. Even facebook page is closed now... wow ok...

Yeah noticed the Facebook page is gone! That sucks! We should keep this thread going as this looks like the only community that's legible to English users. The Chinese site has a forum but impossible even after chrome translates the pages. What firmware are your devices running. I've stuck to 1.2.5 didn't want to risk an upgrade and break things that are working

I'm still getting some hang time on my device. Btw it looks like a31 source code is available. Even found a Cwm recovery that sort of works, also can u get droidmote to work on your device? Would be awesome if it did
I got my A1000g 2 days ago. It seems to have a lot of potential but has some bugs hopefully Mele will iron out. I noticed the CPU was clocked at 1ghz so I downloaded Set CPU and raised it to 1.2ghz which seems to run stable, any higher and the box crashes. This also seems to help the hangs which happen a lot. Xbmc has some trouble with HD but is fine on SD. Overall its a nice box which I really hope Mele give a lot of support to and updates to.
PS.I'm having trouble with popcorn player. The edge of the player is off the screen so I can't resize it, it seems to be because the Nav Bar is gone. Does anyone know how to fix this or even get the Nav Bar back?

Well I just filled a send back form out. I will send my meleback and get a refund. The no fast forward and back ward problem is no problem for me ( Use bubble upnp for example) but I can't tell my Girlfriend to to exchange her Blackberry for an Android just to get fast forward in a movie. MX Player said that this problem will persist (even inbuilt player doesn't support fast forward)
My box was / is on 1.27, its really a pitty that I cant get to work. It is really really a nice box. ;( (Damn closed source SoC no one wants to support...)

Yeah, as I wrote, nice box, no crashes just one (Might be the app) but I got the second gen with external wi-fi not internal. So the problems you got might be first gen probs.
The problems I listed are the only problems: 720p+ can´t be fast forwarded on streams. Some players don´t play with hardware encoding (Closed source SoC)
It´s almost funny that closed sourced want open sourced software to sell products and don´t want to "update" there software to use closed sourced hw+ accelaration (MX Player for example)

Where did you get a 2nd gen A1000G with an external antenna?? The only A1000G listed at the MeLE site is this:
http://en.mele.cn/products/show/31.htm
I also got the MeLE A1000G and it's a really bad box. Random factory resets, random freezes and in my box the SD slot is misalligned a bit so you have to force the SD card in. On firmware 1.27 I can't find a XBMC that can play a 720p MKV file without crashing - maybe it will work with an external player, I haven't been able to get that to work yet.
I've been in contact with MeLE directly: Some woman named Susan which seemed very helpfull wrote me that she would send me a new firmware to test. I wrote her back with some more info and then she wrote me that a tech named Issac would contact me. This never happend so I wrote Susan again. Now we start all over and she asks the same info I've gave her once.
When the Facebook page still existed (before MeLE deleted it due to complaints from customers) MeLE promissed most of July that a new firmware would be out before August. That never happend. The last we heard from MeLE was that they got a new codebase from Allwinner with the new SDK and that a firmware would be out in (I think) 4 weeks. Personally I doubt that will happen but time will show.
I also tried contacting DealExtreme where I bought this %#&!# box with the problems. They wrote me back that I should take some pictures of the problems and send them to them - how do you take pictures of random freezes and random resets? I guess I'm stuck with this box and just have to be sad that I lost the money. Too bad - and never buy from MeLE again.
I just ordered a different box which seems to have a new upcoming community and some very skilled people making custom ROMS for it, it can't be worse than the MeLE box

Sorry for my lack of English. I'm not English-speaking, as you might guess from my "build of text". I never said that MeLE produces 100% defective devices. But I have no doubt that MeLE does not control the quality of the output! Otherwise the device I would have bought could not pass QC. A1000G does not have adequate cooling. Overheating of the AllWinner A31 chip reached 95C! Compound near the processor darkened by the action of overheating!

What type of TV do you have? Is it with built in wi-f or wi-fi ready?
If it has DLNA in it you can simply use the Lumia Play to app from Microsoft.
Here is an example video:

Ok as far as i've been able to find on Google you will probably need these things:
1. USB Wireless LAN Adapter WIS09ABGN - Samsung recommends this for your type of TV (But you must double check it's compatibility again).
2. The settings this guy made into his TV service menu to enable the DLNA/USB option. - You can scroll down to the comments where one guy says that he managed to make this work on his Samsung UE32C6000
At the end if everything went well, you will be able to stream your photos, music and videos through the Microsoft Play to app.
Tell me what you've done.
Thanx cevi,
using this wifi adapter I'd be limited on using my Lumia with my TV, that isn't my purpose...
Indeed, I'd play my video on every TV, that's why I'm wondering if the EzCast (or other Miracast devices) works properly with my Lumia 1020.

Well considering that the ezcast app from the store works on almost every windows phone device i think that you shouldn't have any problem using it on the Lumia 1020.
Check this video from the guys explaining the process.
---------- Post added at 04:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------
Seeing the comments below the app in the store i think that you might have problems with streaming with the 1020. Maybe the best would be to try to contact the developers of the app so they can confirm its compatibility with the 1020.

Hello,
I got MXQ Pro and I was highly disappointed!! No Bluetooth as advertised! Xbox controller doesn't work! SLOW like @### and other than playing media.. it's very slow to load even simple games. AV didn't work! anyways, big disappointed. I guess you get what you pay for!
So I looked around and I see there at other makes like T8 PRO, Minix (few different models). Of course NExus player is no where to be found!
I want something that I can connect bluetooth controllers/keyboard/mice and play android games, use it for media playing using kodi. nice smooth box.
Anyone has a good experience with a box that can do all of the above? and is proven with personal experience? I can't trust the reviews anymore as they were good for the MXQ pro and it turned out crap.
Thank a lot.

Thanks for any help or advise.
Is this what they call reverse advertising otherwise known as radvertising? In essence getting the general public to advertise for your product ?

Hi,
I'm looking 2buy a straemer for kodi.
I made a big research upon that question read a lot.
Found some reccommandtions such as:
* NEXBOX A95X
* BEELINK GT1
* ZIDOO X9S
* Xiaomi Mi Box (maybe wont be relevant due to lack of RJ45 Ethernet? *important
What is for your opintion is the best for around 60$? Not only from the follwing...
Thansks!
Bro! Thanks for putting that initial list together. I was also considering some of those.... following this thread to see if any further input on affordable boxes similar to above.
Lets cross our finguers to responces
The new NVidia Shield TV dropped also. But that beast is $199 for standard and $299 for a pro. Heck for that much money might as well get an Intel mini-pc.
Cannot find a single reasson of buying a media pc (streamer is so 2010)
I personally am buying a T95Z box, specifically the easytone package off amazon.
The T95Z and the S96 boxes are loaded with newer chips and decent memory/storage and most are around $60. Check em out.

Unless you need the video features the s905X supports, stay away from it..
It's billed as "the new SoC" by the sellers but it's over-all slower than the S905 - all it has is those few video feature extras... but generally slower all around.
OK
So it better choosing a S905 device.
But which one/s??
All around XDA, with around 7 MILLION membes - not any single recommandation?
Tnx!
So looking at the new zoomtak Uplus I might hold off and get that when more vendors start selling it. Check it out

As for right now, at that price point, best bet would be a sunvell t95z. It has the newer Amlogic S912 and better mali gpu than most. It'll handle 4k no problem.
Thanks
Also heard about the sunvell t95z.
Guess it supposed to be good...?
How is it compare to Beeling GT1?
Hardware wise they are identical. The launcher/ui's will be different, but is always customizable. If choosing between those two I'd say it would come down to price, accessories, and visual appeal. Since both will offer similar performance.

This may be obvious, but did you consider a Fire TV stick? They're only 40 for the basic model and they're more than powerful enough to run Kodi. if that's all you're looking to do. they can also be rooted without problem and have custom ROM's in case you want a more traditional Android feel. I've got two running Kodi without any issues. You don't even need to go for the upgraded version with the voice search remote as you can download the fire tv remote app free from the Play store on any Android device and it has voice search built in. Unless you are looking to set up a PVR with Kodi, in which case the six gig storage would be an issue.
Guys have a look at this.
It might help you, especially if your main goal is to use KODI / SPMC / etc:

The Xiomi Mi Box 4K seems like a no brainier at ~$70. I've had it for maybe 6 months and it's very good. Runs Kodi v17 awesome, runs RetroArch awesome for gaming emulators, plus all the usual Android TV stuff like Chromecast, Netflix, YouTube, Spotify, etc. It still runs Android 6.0.1 but hopefully it'll get Android N soon. Some of the 4K/HDR stuff isn't perfect I've heard, but have mine set to 1080p, don't have a 4K TV anyway. I'd definitely buy it again though at this price point: http://www.mi.com/en/mibox/
