Sent from my Xperia Play using xda app-developers app
Hi, XDA users.
I have two Samsung PAVV TV.
Not smart tv
Ah, Here is Korea.
They can be supported HDMI cable.
And I want to connect Xperia Play to TV
How can I connect?
I know that some devices of Xperia in same year : Arc , Ray ,Play , Neo.
They are same expect of size of display and hardware keys.
But I heard only Play isnt supported , is it?
If Xperia Play is supported , what i need to connect?
I mean like HDMI cable.
Only cable : Micro 5 pin - HDMI ?
+ I m afraid that you cant understand my thread .
Well.. Please tell me what Xperia Play named in other country?
In Korea , Xperia Play named 엑플 . It s read [Expl]
Sorry about the thread is too long.
Thanks for reading thread by noob

Unfortunately, the Xperia Play doesn't have a micro HDMI slot and so can't be connected to your TV in this way

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

The xperia play development version(that version they showed on shops,magazines)have an HDMI port,but the public release of xperia play don't have this port,maybe it have the software inside,but as far I know no one find such software,maybe possible install them,I think.

Correct the development version of the xperia play had hdmi out. The production models don't. Software wont fix a hardware issue.

sadly only the developer models have an HDMI out :crying:

So there is no way we can connect our xperia play to a tv or monitor?

Find a development model.

Doesn't the play support analog video out via USB??

Like I said,if the software of HDMI is in the phone,you could theorically use a microUSB-to-HDMI cable,check this link: //talk.sonymobile.com/thread/26107
(place http,I dont have 10 posts)they say in service mode shows that xperia have the software.you could use a microUSB-to-HDMI cable to check if work,but at your own risk,since I still don't have one,that's all I can do,

Do you really think no one has tried this?

So that means it does not work??

Hi guys,I have researched and find that microUSB-to-HDMI adapters uses a standard called MHL(mobile high-definition link) to mirror the phone screen on TV,I also find on this thread: //forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943872
That MHL is software-based,they are even trying to port some of apk from xperia line that support MHL,but they are trying to port to xperia phones that uses NovaThor cpu,at Wikipedia page of MHL: //en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_High-Definition_Link
shows the phones that have native MHL support.
Resuming all this stuff:
1orting MHL to xperia play is possible since is a software.
2:with the port made will be possible to use microUSB-to-HDMI adapters.
With the help of some devs we could port it to xperia play.

Using external HDD with Xperia Play

Hey guys, I saw on the Sony website that the Xperia features USB hosting. I have an external HDD that is externally powered and I would like to hook it up to the Xperia with a view to transfer files etc.
Do all I need to get is a USB OTG cable for the Xperia ? Thanks
I only did it on my sony tablet s and only needed otg cable and extra power supply for the hardrive in fat32 format but I believe it is honeycomb feature, not gingerbread or plays. I maybe wrong

It is a feature not in the Xperia Play atm. DoomLord made it work on other 2011 Xperias but the Play was a different story, he has tried to work around it a few times but still a no-go for now.

Turn your Xperia™ PLAY phone into a PC or games machine. Pop it into LiveDock™, connect a USB keyboard, mouse or gamepad via the USB port, and work – or play away. All day.
To enjoy this feature, you may need to update your phone software.

i hope ics will bring this feature without the need for live dock ...the play is not listed as compatible with the live dock

You can do it wirelessly, but you might get some lag(not good for games) using the Allshare Cast Dongle. Otherwise you might look at doing MHL to HDMI and using a PS3/Xbox controller. Not sure of the specifics, but here is a great video explaining all different ways.

[Q] Sony Dualshock 3 support in any Xperia S ROM?

Hello, I would like to know whether there already exists Xperia S ROM with native support for the PS3 wireless remote controller (Dualshock 3) as announced for Xperia SP?
http://www.xperiablog.net/2013/04/0...shock-3-controller-support-for-xperia-phones/
I know there is a special application for DS3 in the play store, but I would rather wait for native Sony support.
Do you think we could get this controller supported later after official JB update for Xperia S, or it could be included into existing ROMs (ICS based)? Thanks
Wait for the system dump, then JB for us, then we will see what will work straight away, and what will need to be ported.

Have you tested this yourself. I have a Samsung Smart TV with screen mirroring capability and the TV & Xperia phone see each other but when the phone tries to send the image to the TV, the TV goes black and says that the connection was disconnected.
I could never get it to work!!
The throw feature does work.
I have tested it by my self.. And it works so well
