1. Reboot both your PC and your Hero.

2. Go to the system prompt c:\

and navigate to C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

3. Set Hero USB access to Charge only.

4. attach hero to USB cable on PC .

5. Type "adb devices". Your Hero should show up on the list.

6. Start typing the sequence in Post #1 . That's how it's done.

No problem here

I have the Frankin-Twiz Final and have had much better performance on the battery. One thing i have noticed you can help on battery usage by ending programs not in use with task manager and not downloading alot from the 3G Apparently that Does eat alot more power than from the Wi Fi

Hope that helps

Sorry if this has been addressed but I searched and have not seen any updates in days, and those were just interested people no developers. Have all the developers given on this? Very disappointed here.

What are you asking about it?

I have fresh rom and hdmi out works great, just wish there was a way to see the whole thing instead of just pics/movies.

last year I had the htc omnia with windowsmobile and could connect it to tv with av cables and see whole system on tv, it was only cool feature about it....lol
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timmymacnj:
Sorry for not specifying, I meant full external monitor support. I bought a bluetooth keyboard and mouse specifically for this purpose and feel completely ripped off. Thought one of the devs would have a solution a week after the phone came out but no one seems to care at all
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyz2897:
I'm pretty excited about this too. Hopefully it will happen eventually.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kornsaq:
Not to sound disheartening or anything, but I just don't think there is that much of a demand for this.

I am sure that one of the devs will get it going sometime though, just might be a while.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyz2897:
I think if the demand's not there, it's only because people haven't thought much about the possibilities. I'm thinking of a future where you don't own a desktop computer. Instead, you come home from work, drop your phone into a cradle that charges the phone and makes a video connection to a monitor. The phone then pairs with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse literally becoming a computer and when you leave for work the next morning you take your computer with you as a phone.

Granted, the Evo is a little short on specs to be a main computer for most (it's probably about equal to a '02 Compaq Presario 5400) but I expect the performance will improve dramatically in future models considering some of the tech that's rumored to be on the horizon. I'd really like to see it happen with the Evo just to show the possibilities if nothing else. Besides, with the bluetooth changes in CM6 allowing the use of input devices, we're halfway there. Just need to get that pesky video out problem solved. :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsbobbers:
You & I buddy, we see things the same way.

Maybe we should take a poll of the community to gague interest on who might actually use this feature if the dev's got it working.

Personally I would love to see this technology paired with a USB HOST driver so that we can dock our EVO's into something and actually energize not only the monitor but also be connected to anything tethered to the dock via USB. (keyb/mouse mainly, but also storage!)

I hope you don't feel 'ripped off' by the development community who seems to give 110% almost all the time, and instead feel 'ripped off' by HTC not providing this type of functionality out of the gate, which in my mind would TOTALLY be a game changer.

Anyhow, you're not alone, it just seems we've got no developer to champion our cause just yet, or if we do, i'm not aware.

--- Now, I know it's not gonna help us with the EVO/HDMI interaction we're thinking about here but i'm personally hoping that by the time Intel's LightPeak lands in cell phones that manufacturers start to grasp this "cellphone centric" world view that we have.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyz2897:
USB host is a great idea. Not only for input devices and storage but also optical drives, scanners, and printers. Imagine ripping a DVD to mp4 for your phone using your phone (while docked).:D Of course the apps would have to be there to support those devices, but surely they would follow. Right now I'd be extremely happy just to see the basic groundwork in place (which it is excepting full UI out over hdmi). As to feeling ripped off, a few months ago I wouldn't have even thought it possible that a phone could do this. I don't feel ripped off a bit, definitely not by the development community, not even by HTC really. If anything I'm just really excited by the possibilities and willing to lend my voice to express support/interest so that hopefully the devs won't overlook this as something nobody's interested in.:)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
What do you mean see the whole thing? Please elaborate for those of us who have yet to buy an hdmi cable.

I thought it would simply go into "mirror" mode, so whatever you see on your evo is mirrored on the TV, like how desktops work. Is that not the case?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tgruendler:
Not the case.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sb22:
Nope, it just shows pictures, videos, youtube, etc...

http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10253&cs_id=1025301

Cables are cheap though, buy one anyway. I keep one plugged into my TV and coiled up behind it. I just pull it out and plug my phone in if I want to show certain pictures/videos from my phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
So, when you're using apps/games, they DO NOT display on the TV?

Geeze, what's the point then?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowpunter:
Its not that no one cares, its that it is going to RIDICULOUSLY HARD to get full HDMI out on the EVO. I've looked into it a fair amount with the intent of coming out with an app similar to Real HDMI for the EVO. The trick for getting full HDMI out for the Droid X won't work at all for EVO due to the way HTC (and possibly Sprint) have the software stack configured for HDMI output. Long story short, it will take a dev with massive experience/knowledge to get this working since it will require a hack at the kernel/ROM level as it looks impossible to get it working at the app layer.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timmymacnj:
Yeah I guess it is just my ignorance showing through, or maybe I just had my hopes too high. The attitude around here seems to be that our friends here will find a solution to any problem they throw at us, and I may have taken a little too much stock in that. Its not so much that I am saddened by the lack of success, it is just that with lots of searching, I can't seem to find one prominent developer working on this (barely mentioning it). I suppose I am just being a cry baby, but it is just a bummer when I look at the changelogs on roms/kernels, and I see some of the issues they spend their time working on vice things like this. I suppose if CyanogenMod didnt have to be elbow deep in WIMAX (the only other remaining feature I am dying for) this might be a different story. /Cry over
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Neo3D:
@timmymacnj: You could also post on HTC's facebook page and write to them as well. After all, if the Droid X can do it, then that's a feature that makes the Droid X better than the Evo.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokifish:
The industry as a whole is very short sighted. I use a Clarion Mind running XP SP3 as my carpc (800Mhz Atom, 512MB Ram) with no issues. Smart phones now are not to far off in specs. I've been waiting for some time for a "workstation in my pocket" type solution.

The EVO hardware supports "USB Host", HDMI (or DVI w/ an adapter), Bluetooth, WiFi, and others. All we need is USB Host (w/ HID ,mass storage, USB hub and LAN dongle support), full UI out via HDMI and bluetooth HID support. I have drawings for a dock on my workbench that has 2 usb ports, 10/100 port, 2.5" HD and DVI out. Throw in an office suite and a couple other apps and you end up with that "workstation in your pocket". Have the phone manufacturers charge $150 for it and buyers would still save money over an EVO plus netbook combo. There are a lot of companies that would benefit by giving their employees laptops but can't afford, this is an answer to that problem.

Real innovation is generally left to devs and hardware geeks. Then a couple years later the manufacturers say "Look at our cool new thingy aren't we the smart ones!"

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobsbobbers:
When you say that smartphones today aren't too far off in spec from your Car PC, the EVO actually bests it (unless I'm missing something)!

Seriously. Talk about Eating Microsoft's lunch!

I'm glad to hear that i'm not living on a planet all by my lonesome wanting this to come true. I know it's a mountain and a half of work but at this point, it makes me sad to think.

"It really is just software"

I feel like I missed my calling when I could have learned how to code that software but chose another path instead.

:mad:

Does anyone have any connections to dev's who have thought about tackling this? Specifically might the mountain be made into a little more like a large hill if we could apply some of the HDMI code base from something like the DROID X and apply it to the EVO? Is this just too much wishful thinking?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyz2897:
So, the FM radio is now working in CM nightly 116. I expect that means 4G will be coming at some point in the not too distant future and hopefully with those out of the way we'll see HDMI out getting some attention. I remember reading some articles back in July saying that full HDMI out was going to be a feature in CM6. Obviously that didn't happen, but hopefully it was just postponed and not abandoned. If full HDMI does make an appearance on the Evo, I expect that a later CM rom is where we'll see it first.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hexydes:
I have nothing to add to help here, other than to say I too have been waiting about three years for a phone to be able to do this. Since the high-end smartphones all started adding HDMI-out, and have had Bluetooth for years now, I'm really hoping this finally comes to fruition.

Reading a few other posts in this thread, it's awesome to see some posters writing word-for-word what I've been posting as well (though I was posting over in the Dell Streak forum, which I've since abandoned that phone because Dell blew it, and I just bought a few EVOs for the family).

So any AWESOME developers from XDA community looking for a project...there would be a few members in this thread that would LOVE to see this functionality come about! :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradleyw801:
I would like to think that when Cyanogen tweets about HDMI, he is talking about FULL HDMI out. The reason is that every other rom is just a variation of sense, so their HDMI will not be unique. CM will have to be unique because it's built from the ground up. Their team doesn't strike me as the type to just copy HTC code, but rather to build it themselves, and I am hoping.... build it right the first time. But as others have said, that tweet doesn't confirm anything for us HDMI hopefuls yet.

I am glad that discussions still get created about this, it shows interest, and hopefully motivates development.

USB host talk...what exactly??

Concerning all the USB host talk, the Saygus V-phone (was supposed to debut early this year on verizon) as the first android video calling phone and it had USB host as well. ...guess they couldn't cut it with all the verizon open handset tests...so it will now be here at christmas time.

Anyway, they apparently thought usb host was a good idea too.

So what exactly would this feature allow??? Would this feature enable the ability for me to plug my usb keychain (w/ micro usb adapter, of course) directly into my phone to transfer files???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonyz2897:
I'm not sure about storage (that would be really nice too). I think the main focus is plugging in a powered USB hub and using that to connect input devices. I'm guessing that once host mode is achieved, anything that somebody felt like writing drivers for would work. That's just a wild guess though.

I'm running myns and CFS 9 and it has been 11 hours since I charged to 100%, my battery has 71% left now. Battery life has a lot to do with your settings. If I am in range of WiFi, I use it instead of 3g. If I'm not using 3g, I turn it off. GPS, 4g and Bluetooth are always off. Auto sync is off, I disabled mobile data always on under the wireless & networks section of the settings menu. I have a profile set under setcpu to underclass to 245mhz min/245mhz max when the screen is off. I think that is all of my battery saving settings...

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
The factory reset function of the stock O/S clears the activation state of the phone; installing the rollback ROM and the OTA which follows does not alter the activation state.

I guess you have discovered that, though.

I would call (or visit) your carrier and have them activate it; after all, it is a stock phone now, yes?
