HDMI Port on PX6 - Does it work? - MTCD Android Head Units Q&A

Hello All
I understand that some PX-6 core boards come with a HDMI port on the board itself (is an HDMI port, the one on the botom-left corner, right?)

Has anybody used it? Does it work by default, showing the same main android screen as the unit itself?
Thanks !!!

You have to manually turn it on in the settings.

Thanks !!!
Will that disable the "main" screen?
What I want to do is a Screen Mirroring, where I have the main touch-screen unit on the car console, close to the hands, but a secondary screen showing the same content (90% of the time is Google Maps) close to the windshield and my normal line of vision
Has anybody tried something like this on the past?
Thanks !!!

No, it will not disable the main screen. In the screenshot change from NO to YES to enable HDMI. This also depends on what Canbus Version you have.

Mirror/Flip Screen for Head Up Display

Hello,
does anyone know a software that can mirror my devices screen?
Yesterday evening, I drove around but forgot to take the holder for my PPC with me. So I just put it under the front window. An surprisingly I could read the screen just fine. Just like an Head Up Display. The only was that it was mirrored by the front window. So I wonder about if there is a software that could mirror my screen, so that the image in the window is just fine.
With this, I can have my navigation without having the PPC stick in the holder.
It would be great, if I can map that software to a hardware button, to switch it on after typing in the destination (which would be an bit difficult mirrored)
Can someone help me?
oixio
PS: I hope you understand me. I'm from germany and sometimes I do not find the right words to say what I want.
Yes, i'm also using my ppc for hud a long time ago, but i haven't found a program to do that.
Can anyone help?
Have a look at tchart speed sentry http://www.tchartdev.com/ this has a HUD mode but it doesnt display maps just speed heading etc. I find the double reflections from the automotive glass a major distraction - but see what you think - Mike
Thanks Mike. I'll give it a try.
If you find anything else post it here...

Shortcut for rotating screen in Wm5

Hi!
I'd like to have a small icon in the lower part of my "today screen" (see picture), which switches between portrait and landscape view. I'm sure this is not a big deal, and there a plenty of apps for this purpose... but I haven't found them yet.
Any ideas?

My suggestion, install PHM Tools for rotating, and use PHM tray launcher to stick an icon in the tray.
But there is a hack on the board to use the "proper" rotate screen service. It wasn't a particularly effective hack IIRC, but it was there. Can't remember how to find it now though!

Do you mean this hack?

Sounds good, but doesn't work for me. I'll try again.
No, there was another hack specifically for Hermes. But again, IIRC didn't work for all.

u might consider to use ilauncher(sbsh.net) it has such a functionality. it works for my artemis and Universal
i developed that application many months ago because i didn't love HTC Plug of my p3600... the "secret" is ChangeDisplaySettingsEx API
Here's the thread I was thinking of, mysteriously hidden under the search "hermes rotate screen". Who'd of thought it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1098622#post1098622
Gives the "original" screen rotate icon.

Unfortunately, it's not working on my Charmer (I thought this is an wm-issue and not related to the device).
-> I'm gonna use one of the 3rd party apps. Thanks for the feedback!
// EDIT
The hack *does* work on Charmer. I did a small mistake... big impact.

I rotate the phone 180 degrees to let you see another side
How do you judge it? I think mine isn't that bad.

you need to put on something that is black background to see it. i can see it across the top and bottom , i can also see it very similair on my tv if i look at it the same way looking up into it. its there adn you can see it but its not that noticable unless your looking for it on mine. the pics the other poster showed were definaltey worse than mine. This does not make me regret the purchase at all.
i cant really see it at all when its the standard white bar across the top on froyo.
How about this one? Get "draw!" from market.
I have to put a dot at the center in order to take picture.
Added a pic of MT4 under similar situation (using draw!), but since the screen is less sensitive, I have to draw a small circle instead of the dot.

If you have to ask if it's bad....it's not bad.

[Help] Bricked on a glitch screen but odin mode works

Hi people, I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 (N8000), and since a few years ago is stored because from one day to another stopped working, when you turn on normally the screen is something like interference, has no movement, there is no sound of the system, just stays like that and occasionally restarts, but if Odin mode works "normally", I tried to flash the system in several ways and following various tutorials but nothing has worked yet. At some point it was taken to a "technician" to be checked, but the answer he gave was that the whole motherboard had to be replaced.
Does anyone know if this has a solution?

The eMMC needs to be replaced, I'm doing this as a professional, don't know if theres a store which can do this in your country.
Open the tab and see if the flex cable from the screen is still properly seated in the connector. If not, open the lock and reinsert the flex cable from the screen correctly and close the lock again.

You can see, that the download mode looks normal.
It's the typical picture, if theres no data readable from the param partition,
mostly defective eMMC.
