Hello
I have a Motorola Photon Q
I flashed it with CyanogenMod 10.2
I connected an HDMI cable and I have an output to my monitor... unfortunately it's upscaled so is a bit blurry.
Does anyone know if there's a way to output real 1080p through Photon Q's HDMI cable? (for watching movies, video conference through Hangouts, Skype) or it'll be unable to render the Android interface at 1080p?
Thanks
I also would like to see real 1080p output from the HDMI port as I use my phone for Netflix and stored blu-ray's.

Has anyone tried hdmi mirroring on their Charge? I was curious as to how well it plays video and/or does it have enough power to play 720p.
Beamed from my MB810.
Yes, I tried the HDMI mirror mode and it was great. With mirror mode it shows you what screen is on your phone and diplayed on the TV.
I some videos from my Droid and played couple of them in mirror mode and was pixelated but I played videos taken from my DC and it played great. I tried out pictures I have and those where awesome.
What resolution does the hdmi port output?
On my DLP HD tv and my HD projector it displays at 1080p....Looks damn good too
Are you certain the signal is 1080p? Most TVs will tell you the signal resolution with some sort of "info" button.
I ask a second time, because my understanding is that 720p is the hdmi output signal.
Thanks again.

Both my projector and my tv automatically tell you what resolution it being displayed when you switch to a different input. I am 100% sure it's 1080p as my vision is 20/20 and I can clearly read what it says. Not being a smart ass...lol..but yes it does say 1080p on both of my displays.
when you say 720p is the display output for HDMI, do you mean the device or any HDMI output. Becuase the max resolution through HDMI is 1080p. 720p can be acheived through a component output as well as HDMI and is not the max resolution of an HDMI output. But I assure you that this when my phone is hooked up to HDMI my display tells me its 1080p. If you are reading some where that the device is only able to display 720p maybe it's incorrect or maybe my displays are up converting it some how. Either way it is dispaying at 1080p.

Thanks for clarifying. I do wonder if there is some kind of up converting. I guess you would really have to run some 1080 test patterns on your TV via your Charge to see if it really does generate 1080 output and not just up converting 720..
I do understand HDMI a bit. I have read that the hummingbird CPU/GPU supports XGA resolution, which is not 1080p. I think it's 1024x768.
I was a bit skeptical when someone said it was 1080p.
So I guess the question is, is it up converting?
I'm really interesting in the Charge. I am following all the threads and discussion on desktop use of Android. Right now, CM7 is working great with the EVO in regards to desktop use (extrenal monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc), but I think it's limited to 720p per the HTC/EVO hardware.

I got my mini HDMI to HDMI cable today and having not been able to test it previous to 3.1 I was wondering if everyone elses was poor performing?
I can play a 1080 avatar clip which is encoded baseline mp4 on my tablet perfectly and it is smooth, but as soon as I plug the HDMI cable in its very stuttery and laggy but the audio decodes fine (on the TV obviously - Samsung 42" plasma)
It plays at the same performance as software decoding.
Any one else have issues?
Thanks
Its a lot better than before as it wouldnt do 1080p out before. 720p is much better than before but it still could use some improvement

i couldnt even watch utube with the hdmi out until the 3.1 update!!
Hi,
I was just wondering if the Mini HDMI port can be used to input video in from a vidoe camera? I dont think it can but I I am hoping:cyclops:
not the hdmi port but you can use the usb / sdcard ports

Hi, I am wanting, or would like to use my TF to record video/audio from a analog source (RCA jacks) I saw hdmi to rca converters but it looks like I will have to get something else to record video.
thanks for the reply
I don't think android supports HDMI in not many devices besides monitors actually do. You might want to try an rca/usb adapter but again it is doubtful it would work as android does not support many external devices
Best wired bet would be -->
miniHDMI OUT-->HDMI 2 RCA (very expensive adapter :[ ) ---> Record via RCA
Or get a digital hdmi recorder. New dvd players support this I believe.
What exactly do you need to do?
Just bought the official Samsung Multimedia Dock (EDD-S20EWE) and unfortunately it only outputs 720p 30fps and it is very sluggish .
Just noticed on Samsung's site there's another dock (EDD-S20JWEGSTA) and it says that it outputs 1080p (no info on fps).
Anyone knows the second dock works at 60fps ?
I also have the S4 MHL to HDMI adapter and it works at 1080p 60fps without issues, would really like to know if the dock works at 60fps 'cause I'll be using it to connect to a 1080p TV, keyboard, mouse and external HDD.
Thanks

I've just got 'EDD-S20EWEGSTD' and it outputs at 1080p @ 30hz. Don't know to check the the FPS though. The box is specifically branded for 'Note II' but still works with the S4. Manufacturer date on the box is 01/05/13.
Found a picture of the JWE box. They've renamed it to "Smart Dock for Galaxy Series" instead of "Multimedia Dock for Note II."

Try it without the usb-mouse/keyboard plugged in (screen on)

Still running at 30hz for me. According to this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41889724&postcount=20
The newer JWE dock only outputs in 30hz as well.

Only problem is with that is you get 30hz output.
I got a dock which works for the S3/Note2/S4 but the output is 30hz.

Samsung really need to create an updated dock for the S4 which supports 1080p/60hz. This is why I still have not bought one.
Any updates on this? Has Samsung provided us with a dock that outputs 1080p/60fps?
And could also act as USB OTG at the same time?^
Any unofficial or Note III docks etc. that would work like this?
hi,
is there any way to force the MHL/HDMI output resolution?
The dirty hacks and apps in lots of threads I've tested do not work as expected.
The resolution always depends on the device I'm connected to.
I'm currently running CM11 and I'd like to ask you, if it's possible in any way to force the output resolution to e.g. [email protected] (custom kernel?).
Playing games with 1080p is horrible because of the lag.
Thanks in advance!
ciao
Expensive Solution
Probably the easiest but most expensive solution -.-

I think this is not possible.. MHL outputs exactly same what is on mobile phone
