Hey all -
Quick question.. has anyone gotten either of the HDMI mirroring apps to work successfully with any of the Sense 2.1 + GB ports (i.e. MikG, Synergy, etc..) I know you can flash the custom kernel, but seeing how those were not built for Sense 2.1 it does weird things to my phone..
Thanks in advance..
How it works with EVO 4G ? I try but it shows me phone is not connected any one help

Don't think its possible since the functionality doesn't exist. it's a kernal from the Evo Shift, which lacks an HDMI out.
take a look at this

the guys who are working on HDMwIn have some great stuff coming out soon.

This would be my first post on XDA, so please excuse me if I am doing anything wrong (ie. wrong sections, etc).
I recently purchased the HTC video out cable which, by the way, I was extremely excited about.
Currently I've been flashing the cm7 nightlies- by far my favorite rom to date. Unfortunately to my despair, the video out cable didn't work with cm7. I only recenly read that the video out is not supported on any AOSP roms.
I assumed that maybe it would only work with sense-based roms and tried Uber Z with 2.2.....still no luck.
So far, the only ROM (out of three that i tried) that worked was Skyraider 3.5. Though this is a nice and stable rom, it is missing some of the features that some of the Evo and Gingerbread ports have.
So to my question.... Does the TV out only work on Incredible ports, or is there a way to get it working on an Evo or Gingerbread port (maybe through some tweaking).
Thanks in advance
I got the same problem as you. As far as I know it only works on incredible framework. Its not a "major" hardware function so nobody will really ever take the time to fix it for aosp, desire z etc.... Although the dlna function on z roms is a possible solution

I have the video out on my deck in my Mustang for streaming Pandora while I drive. Wish it'd work on CM7.

I want a basic sense 2.0 rom. Where everything works. Recommendations? AOSP is my first joy, now i wanna explore sense. :-D

Why stop at 2.0, jump into Newtoroots Hybrid sense 3.0. Also check out Nils business sense 2.1 with som 3.0 mixed in.
I tried MIUI for the first time (1st AOSP rom ever for me). I'm liking it alot.

try warm z twopointwo and use my stock theme if you want it stock found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033311 or try any of the roms in my signature they're pretty much stock
I would try Incubus Stock 2.0: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052613
I've been using it for almost a month now and I love it. It's solid and stable, and to me...better than SR 4.0.
One of the things I really love about his ROM is that he didn't remove the HTC hub, and everything from the HTC hub works on the ROM except the widgets section and a couple addons. All themes/skins, sounds, and wallpapers on the hub work.
I've been trying out a few other Sense 2.0 ROMs with the DualRom X2 and I always keep coming back to Incubus Stock 2.0
thanks guys, but totally unrelated. i cant get any of the OMFGB nightlies to flash at all. they just boot loop, and loop and loop
I would agree, Warm Z 2.2 is pretty slick. I am currently running their Synergy Nightlies which hopefully soon will become 2.3. Sense 3.0 is great, i mainly use it for the kick-a$$ lock screen. The rest kinda gets covered with Luancher Pro that i run. The nightlies have their share of bugs, but are nearly there.
I'd prefer a Sense ROM because I want tv out and Verizon mobile hotspot, and others I've tried don't have one or the other or neither. Maybe this is impossible. If so, anyone know a cool 3D ROM with both tv out and Verizon mobile hotspot. I've tried some awsome ROMs but they lack these things. Using Inc Ultimate, which is nice but a more dynamic experience would be nice.
I haven't used sense in a long time, but Athena by ihtfp69 was sense based so it had tv out. It also ran launcher2 so it had landscape homescreens. And it's hard to find a bug in anything by ihtfp. No 3d though
Edit: I'm not sure about Verizon hot spot, but beings it's sense based I'm sure it's possible.
Skyraider 4.3 by the same dev above. It is android 2.2 as well but full sense with a lot of features. I don't have a link though but it is way back on xda. I don't know if the recent stock based ROMs have landscape home screen. I know its not built into sense 1 by default.

Look for roms based off of the EVO Shift rom. MikG, Pure Speed, Optimized shift etc... hey all should have landscape if I remember correctly.
I finally got an hdmi cable so I could use my old Evo as a Netflix and gaming device. I flashed CM7 and the SavageZen kernel and I'm having a problem where once I start mirroring over hdmi the WiFi goes to hell and can't maintain a connection which makes Netflix totally unusable. Anyone else have trouble like this?
Now I'm trying Decks 1.3 with the kernel it comes with and it does the same thing. Does this happen to everyone or do I have some sort of hardware problem? Arrrgh
Mason kernels work beautifully for me. Also set the cpu to max in the HDMwin app settings. It will only be set to max while you have it running in the back ground.
same problems even with the mason kernel. This is a total bummer.
Could be your TV or port. Try flashing a sense ROM with a mirroring kernel to see if it will work at all.
Way ahead of you. Just put a rooted copy of the latest OTA on the phone. The normal hdmi capabilities are working fine. I'm watching YouTube on the tv over WiFi now. I guess I'm just having software trouble with AOSP roms and kernels and my phone is really picky. Too bad I can't use Bluetooth gamepads with Sense roms....
Guess I just need to keep searching for a combo that works for me.

Use a Wiimote if you have one. There are a few apps for Wiimote bluetooth connectivity and you can have different saved setups for the buttons. Works well with sense roms as long as you're rooted.

I've never seen a wiimote work in Sense. That's the only reason I'm putting aosp on the Evo anyway. Do you have a wiimote and have made it work with Sense?
All the Wii emote apps say they don't work with the htc sense ui. That's because of htc's crippled Bluetooth stack. I'm not exactly new at this, I've been frustrated by it for years.
Unless you know something I don't know then I need to be on AOSP.
However, it is my understanding that the latest devices like the One X with sense 4.0 no longer have this problem, so lucky them!
Phew! I think I got it sorted finally. I went back to the official CM 7.1 rom and coupled with the mason kernel my WiFi isn't dropping out any more. Looks like rom choice was playing a huge role here.
For sense try bluezime but Rwiimote works for non sense.

Oh I know how to use a wiimote on non sense roms. I just use the "Wii controller" app.
I could swear I've tried bluezime on sense before and it didn't work. I'll give it another whirl on my evo 3d for kicks.

So out of curiosity I tried bluez IME again with the latest rooted stock rom. It still doesn't work even with the HID enabler. Just as I remembered.
However, much to my surprise it DOES work on my Evo V 4G running Sense. I think HTC finally unborked the bluetooth somewhat in the ICS Sense builds.

I'm having the same issue. Just rooted for the first time, but loving it so far. I'm running MikG 3.11 and Anthrax 2.6.38.6 #4 on my Evo 4G. HDMI mirroring works great, but not internet connection to use it with. Any idea if I should I change my kernel, or my rom? I'm new to this, but enjoying the learning process. Much thanks!

Try an AOSP rom with Mason kernel. Don't use the A-word kernel. Check all your settings and make sure everything will stay awake and keep screen set to always on. I use HDMI mirroring on a daily basis and have never ran into a wifi issue.
I have been flashing roms day in and out. Love them all but recently I have found that I really like the MIUI roms. Very Smooth, like the look and people get rather confused when they see it
I have a problem though, and its with all the ICS/JB roms that are coming out. Not a single one of them have a functional HDMI out.
I use this feature of my EVO 4g on a daily basis (or at least I did until I started using the ICS/JB roms)
I have already flashed every kernel I could get my hands on (Mason, Tiamat, Evervolve(sp?), stock(bad idea))
Does anyone have a kernel that I can use with a ICS/JB rom that will allow the HDMI out to work?
Unfortunately HDMI is currently not an option for ANY ICS or JB ROM due to there isn't any kernel that has that available!

Or working 4G. Or working FFC or camcorder or even back camera. But most ICS/JB ROMs are still works I progress.
