i uninstalled the app and installed from the market and it keeps going to bootloader. i wiped dalvik cache and cache and still happening.....help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jcalba89:
nevermind....saw the fix :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomh1979:
No issue with install for me with the market app. I did a nand backup, rebooted, uninstall beta version, ran market app install, rebooted normally without issues, will be testing out shortly.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dkelle4:
This has to do with running a kernel meant for CM7 on CM6. Gingerbread handles the SD card a bit differently. Can fix this by upgrading to CM7 :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] daringblaze:
FullHDMI requires a custom kernel as well...

unless you are talking about another app?
[EVO 4G Android Development] javidnky2005:
Im having same issue, did you find out what to do about this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] daringblaze:
Well when I flashed the beta with recommended custom kernel for fullhdmi last week I was getting cable detected and nothing on screen. Then I found out he was releasing it as a market app for a fee and gave up on it. It will go the route of realhdmi.

The custom kernel adds some hardware performance increase with the mirroring. I refuse to pay for something that should have come with the phone. But since HTC dropped the ball I will go with the next best thing. Open source. Thats what XDA is all about.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Splaktar:
I'm running WarmZ (Sense 2.0) and I'm seeing the same issues as many others. The app hangs at 'installing kernel this will only take ~15 seconds'. I let it sit there 3 times for over 10 minutes each time and nothing happened. It never rebooted and it never did anything but spin.

Does this have to do with the cache or is WarmZ just not supported at this time?

I rebooted after this happened and everything was hosed. I had to re-flash my ROM to get things working again w/o HDMI out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
False. FullHDMI is mirroring great on cm7 nightlies with the stock kernel. You just install the app and it works.

I'm having issues installing the market version.

Alpha/BETA did work like a charm with occasional cable undetects.

But I know this will only get better. You guys rock & thanks for all the dedication into this.

Edit: I just saw a link in the app to d/l the kernel itself :) Will try this next. Thanks

I get a Installation error (Status 6) in recovery when trying to flash the kernel.

Ill try again in a little bit.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
I asked a legit question and got my post deleted. WTF
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomh1979:
I posted a legit non arguing statement and mine got deleted, mods need to read just a bit more carefully before deleting.

[EVO 4G Android Development] atapia984:
Thank you TeamWin. So far, everything has worked well for me. Keep'em coming.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomh1979:
Again, false, I for one did not have to clear cache or dalvik, not a single force close so far, only thing I call a issue is no sound out yet, but it's not really a issue cause they'll fix that eventually. I wonder for those having issues if it has anything to do with hardware or hboot versions.

Awesome job #TeamWin, now just fix sound.

swyped from my gingerbread'd Evo 4G
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkelle4:
HDMI sound on AOSP is coming soon :) Sense kind of automagically does it so that wasn't really a problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] strung:
Wooooot this is awesome !!!! Loving it !!!!

People over last night be seeing my angry birds on my Tee Vee!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
My original question is this. Why does HDMwIn require a custom kernel to work on CM7 nightly 18 when FullHDMI doesn't?
[EVO 4G Android Development] daringblaze:
Just upgraded to the newest version from the market and didn't have to wipe anything. Now to test the HDMI-DVI adapter to 4:3 monitor again. *Crosses fingers*
[EVO 4G Android Development] luckylui:
+1

Someone tell me the difference from the two. Please!?
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
I'm just unlucky i guess :(

This is only happening when i install from the market. The 1st 2 releases worked like a charm. Ill keep trying later.
[EVO 4G Android Development] daringblaze:
If you really have to ask... You come to an opensource forum and compare an open source project to a closed source project... You are making yourself look like a troll.

But if you truly are serious. . Granted I am no programmer but from what I understand kernel mode drivers work the fastest and do not cause slowdown due to cpu load. The "most efficient way possible" method if you will. Kernel controls hardware directly so it would only make sense to do it this way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bradleyw801:
FullHDMI is a lot more universally compatible. It doesn't require root, a custom kernel, or any specific rom in order to work.

But, it costs $3. This option requires you to be rooted and install the kernel packaged with the app. But it's free.

Evo running UD 2.5
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Gladly. While FullHDMI has the ability to run without a custom kernel, the performance and experience are degraded. When we set out to offer HDMI for the EVO, we wanted a great experience. We have made builds which do not require a custom kernel, and we will likely add that support back in shortly. But we really wanted to focus on delivering an exception experience for everyone. This meant fixing the bugs in the kernel that prevent a great experience. It's just difference in focus. We're already working to bring our mirroring kernel into CM7 directly. We fully intend to work with ROM builders to get integrated into the most common kernels.

So we'll ask the question to everyone: Would you rather require a custom kernel temporarily, and get the full power of your EVO, or would you rather we focused our efforts on a sub-par mirroring solution which has reduced frame rates and no chance as HDMI audio on CM builds?

So far, we've focused on the kernel change method, and when everything is done and the kinks ironed out, we believe everyone will agree that we made the right decision on our direction.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Bradley, please verify your facts. FullHDMI requires root now as well. Our doesn't require a specific rom either, you're just busy trolling our forums to spread FUD to help a friend.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slickrick54:
Hdmi & team win

Wow guys you've done it again. Great job to everyone on team win you guys are the best. I was always switching from Froyo to Aosp because of the limitations but now that's all over with and I just wanted to thank you guys for making this possible. 4geez now Hdmi WOW!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] timtlm:
Ok, first time I tried this, it just sat there for way longer than 15 seconds when it was supposed to be installing the kernel. The app says it requires network access, so I assume it may have been downloading the appropriate kernel, and I had terrible speeds where I was at. Anyway, it eventually rebooted, and got stuck at the white screen. I pulled the battery, and it successfully booted up. But when I got in, I had a notification that phone storage was low. I had 400kb remaining. So, I rebooted into recovery wiped cache/dalvik, and still low phone storage. So, then I rebooted and flashed a CM7 nightly on top, and still didn't fix. I had to nandroid back to an older backup.

Now, when I install the app from the market it no longer prompts me to install the custom kernel. And unfortunately I cannot test hdmi right now. I was just trying to get it installed and ready to go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
I would expect that since HDMI is not supported at all in WarmZ that this isn't going to be a magic fix. The phone doesn't even know it has an HDMI port with that rom (which I'm currently running BTW).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
I removed the auto-installer section because it seemed to be causing issues for some people's phones (VERY odd). You need to download and flash the custom kernel in recovery in order for mirroring to work correctly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shidell:
This is amazing--thanks so much for your effort!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
False. First thing the App does is detect the kernel and replace/reboot your phone if it's not the custom kernel required.
[EVO 4G Android Development] timtlm:
Where can I find a download link to the custom kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
It's in the OP.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
Thank you very much for your response. I've been benching/reviewing both projects side by side since your alpha and have tried to be fair. So, FullHDMI is a more universal solution, with high FPS but at the cost of dropped frames, where as HDMwIn has been more AOSP centric with smoother output at the cost of FPS. I still have yet to bench your update/market release (on the todo list for today) but feel free to take a look at my raw data.
[EVO 4G Android Development] timtlm:
Thanks, It wasn't there a few minutes ago when I looked. You must have snuck it in there :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
I get: E: error in sdcard/HDMwIn-kernel-aosp_signed.zip (Status 6) Installation aborted, when trying to flash the kernel. How do i fix this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
SHinzul,

I downloaded this form the market expecting the HDMI out to work over the IR interface on my TV and was severely disappointed. With my first sigh of disappointment I finally broke out the HDMI cable to give you guys a second chance only to be met with even greater failure: I was _not_ looking at a fully virtualized Wii ROM, and my EVO definitely was _not_ functioning as a proper Wii-remote. I gave up even bothering to look for the custom Market app that would let me browse the game titles, because with this _basic_ functionality missing that any hack could do in a weekend ... who knew what other fail I would run into?

Way to disappoint me TeamWin ... next time just let those guys who developed WiMAX from scratch do it ... ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Hahaha, nice "troll" :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] david279:
So with so much win lately, whats next for team win? PRL updating in AOSP, espt settings, profile updating in AOSP maybe....
[EVO 4G Android Development] rican408:
i dont know what happened last night when i tried to install the latest version. i removed the old version and tried to install the new one it rebooted the phone into the bootloader. i went to recovery manually, and tried just reboot the phone to abort the install, went back to bootloader. tried full wipe then reboot, back to bootloader. had no recovery because i just switched to amon ra. finally reflashed cm7 again and all is well. anybody know what happened?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
Unless they are riding the high and want another challenge ... I think they deserve to sit back and reflect onwhta they actually accomplished:

For the first time _ever_: AOSP is feature complete on the EVO. There is no more sacrifice in functionality that needs to be made, and users can focus solely on the quality of the ROM. Combine this with Sprint/HTC going silent on future Sense updates ... and I think the days of Sense ROMs are coming to an end.

Long live AOSP.

Long live TeamWin.

Long Live my EVO.

F* you, forced upgrade cycle
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
So what do your columns mean? Stock/Net HDMI Market v1	Vael/Net HDMI Market v1	CM6.1.2 w/ Stock Kernel	CM7 Nightly #18 w/ Stock Kernel	CM7 Hightly #18 AOSP Beta v1

Also, I'm guessing Hightly was supposed to be Nightly ;)

Good info though!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kevank:
lol. Nice troll... Who are those wimax guys anyway?
[EVO 4G Android Development] unit713:
I can't believe this idiot orrebmas has fanboys that are coming to a competitors thread to troll. He is 1/10th of the dev that shinzul/toast are.

i read this on my way in to work.... haha well played, as always :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] swatspyder:
Also getting a Status 6 error for me in CM7, downloaded twice to confirm.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandelay007:
Is anyone else getting "installation failed" in the market? I tried with and without removing the beta
[EVO 4G Android Development] nc_carol:
full power scotty!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
Same here on a fresh install of nightly 18.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kevank:
What ROM do you have installed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] warmthsound:
I'm also getting an error from the market stating the app is not signed correctly.

Flashing the kernel gets me a status 6 error too.

I'm on cm7 nightly 19 and run amon ra recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
Stock/Net HDMI/Market v1= Stock rooted ROM on HDMI enabled Netarchy kernel using FullHDMI app v1.01

Vael=Vaelpak 3.2

CM6.1.2 is as it comes from cyanogen with no modifications and the same goes for cm7

Hightly (fixed now)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandelay007:
Cm7ex based off RC2 - using the kernel from the beta zip
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkelle4:
What recovery are you guys using...please list the version number as well
[EVO 4G Android Development] aceytech:
I'll chime in here on #1. Anything that's moving creates the 'tearing'. What it looks like to me is the frame buffer contents are changing faster than it can spit out. It creates an effect in a diagonal breakup from upper right to lower left.

I noticed a few additional things.

a.) App itself doesn't rotate, and chops off the selection. I'm Sure you're aware.

b.) Requestors or dialog boxes seem to stick on screen as they're supposed to be fading away. Touch of the screen finishes the redraw.

c.) Appears to be some significant banding in the horizontal direction. Perhaps your scaling algorithm is causing this? Can snap a pic if this sounds foreign.

-On this topic: What type of scaling algo are you doing? Just basic Pixel "multiplying"? Nearest neighbor?

d.) Is the bit depth outputting at its full potential? Looks fairly low.

e.) Display I tried on tonight is a 1920x1200. Video is full screen, but appears squashed horizontally. Will try tomorrow with a 1920 x 1080 TV.

_Curious_ - Are you reading the EDID info from the display, or can you?

Thought: Eating battery for breakfast: Can it be a Toggle-able option? I'd say a lot of people would use the dock or otherwise juice it.

Echoing a bunch of the others, Great job! Especially for an Alpha.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BrandonG777:
Working great even passing through my av receiver other than the bugs you are already aware of. I feel for android devs because it would seem about half your users can't read. Lol full framerate is not available because it would result in your face melting off and your children weeping over your exploded corpse. :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] deviouskater:
i just tried teamwin sense version. sound works. i told shinzul i would test it out a little. im going back to aosp in like 5 min
[EVO 4G Android Development] cphancock1:
Dang doesnt work for me... Im running cm7 rc2. But it may be the crappy cable i got off of ebay. I ordered it just because I heard team win was making hdmi. :( I flashed a sense rom and couldnt get hdmi in the gallery or youtube so Im sure its just the cord.. :( again.. haha... anyone know where to get one at a good price that actually works?
[EVO 4G Android Development] devonparrish:
I just ordered one from ebay, did you get yours from China?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cphancock1:
no it was from california.... could it be that my hdmi port is bad?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jessesse:
Check monoprice.com I got a 15 ft cable for something like 8 $ and didn't have to wait weeks for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gbrazell:
It looks amazing although previously when on rc2 I didn't have the corrupt SD now I do ..I'm going to try the work around and see if that works ..
[EVO 4G Android Development] cphancock1:
thank you sir!
[EVO 4G Android Development] gbrazell:
So the reboot trick did not work any other suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gbrazell:
******edit****
[EVO 4G Android Development] devonparrish:
Dang I just bought mine from California! Haha I guess I'll report back with the results
[EVO 4G Android Development] BrandonG777:
Ok I just had my phone completely lock up except for sound kept playing but phone was pretty warm when I picked it up. Had to pull the battery. Never had that happen on this phone before. Running cm7 rc2.

The wii controllers are nice but I need a bluetooth keyboard and mouse now. And maybe a rotating vesa mount. :)

Sent from my EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] jyan_osu:
I actually got this to work a while ago

http://www.logitech.com/en-us/keyboards/keyboard/devices/3616

has both the keyboard and touchpad in one. Worked out pretty well. I'll try it again with HDMI and CM7
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
Some input from my end. Pretty much exactly what is said in the OP.

Landscape: *I did not get any tearing but more of a black flicker when changing screens and inside of apps. *I was able to watch youtube videos from the browser w/o any flickering as long as I didn't move the screen. *Tried a few apps: facebook, plume, maps all with some flickering. *The VEVO app did not flicker at all and played videos good. Gallery app also did not flicker. *The HDMwIn app itself in landscape mode cuts off in half.

I did not have any issues connecting the hdmi cable or unplugging it. Sound and phone is functioning fine. No freeze up or anything. Auto-rotate would go into landscape mode but not switch back to portrait.

This app is full of win :D Thanks again Shinzul and Teamwin!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] MarkGbe:
well done. :) thanks for your efforts.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jcalba89:
it would flicker when I move the wire around then wouldnt work after 10 minutes. could it be my wire or hdmi port? i'm rebooting right now to see if that would help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MarkGbe:
i had serious flicker and found that the hdmi port on my vizio tv is bad/flaky. Plugged in into my lcd at work and its fine. Maybe the same issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jcalba89:
hmmm....i have a vizio too. ill try it out on my samsung in the living room.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jcalba89:
by the way, i rebooted and it's now stuck on the HTC Evo 4G screen. I can fix this, but i thought i should post that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nc_carol:
I just want to be clear before I jump in.

I'm currently running CM 17 with no errors. I have the HDMwIn beta working on my EVO.

To install the market release I:

backup stuff (to be safe)

uninstall beta

Question: should I reflash 17 here first?

Question: download the market app and install, and that should be it?

oh, running clockwork, but I can switch to the other if you think it best
[EVO 4G Android Development] warmthsound:
amon ra 2.2.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] strung:
Same here. Clockwork 3.0.0.5. Also tried reflashing nightly 19, but then still got status 6 when flashing the hdmi kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
So which one is using HDMwIn?

EDIT: Oooo I can see you changing! Haha.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
CM 2.6.0.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkelle4:
I would always recommend everyone to use Amon_RA recovery. Latest version is 2.3 Now I'm not sure if this has to do with the Error 6 people are getting, but its worth a shot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] strung:
Hmm...Also getting error 6 with Amon ra.
[EVO 4G Android Development] swatspyder:
Nope, not a fix. Already have version 2.3.

Previously had the kernel that was installed by the HDMwIn apk, but flashed over it with Nightly 19.

This kernel won't flash over.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
Amon Ra 1.8 (it's in my signature) ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] murdockq:
I would suggest that the app also show an error message indicating if the proper kernel is installed. Messed around with app from market not working until I read this thread that the kernel install was removed. Also, of note is the app is very slow to respond to inputs without the proper kernel installed.

I have now downloaded the sense kernel from here and get the (status 6) messages when i try to flash, using either amon_ra and clockwork.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
RE: the status 6's - sorry guys, I borked the kernel zip - fixing it right now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
Thanks. I have to bench it later as I have to get back to work but will try to update it today.
[EVO 4G Android Development] swatspyder:

Sorry about that... :o
[EVO 4G Android Development] swatspyder:
Thank you for the MD5 hashes also. Please continue to do that. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
Thanks :) Flashing now!

Change the link on market, the aosp don't work build kernel, with the lin kfrom the first page work.

let see if works in MIUI
[EVO 4G Android Development] DomSim:
read instructions! you have to uninstall the beta first.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
Ok. This is my experience so far. So I now have HDMwIn app v1.0.2 w/ the custom aosp kernel installed. CM7 Nightly #19. I run the app and it now mirrors but in a Green/Pink Color. If i go to menu and select Display options, the app force closes. I cleared the app cache and opened again. Went into display options, hit back, force close. Start to mirror, all in Green/Pink again. I have no luck at all with this app :( It is not the hdmi ports or cables as it mirros fine in full color with another app. Im done for now. Ill test again tonight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] t12icky0:
how is battery life with your SENSE kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] TImmyTheThumbs:
I've got this working great on my Evo with with CM7, but after uninstalling, wiping cache, and davlik on my sense phone the only output I get is the banners? I'm using the same known working cable for both phones, but the sense one just isn't pushing any mirroring through, just the banners. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Maximiano:
Portable Hotspot and HDMwIn

I flashed the alhpa and beta with no problems. However, when I got the email that the version is now available in the market, I downloaded it and installed it from the market. All appeared to be working fine until I went to connect to the my portable wifi hotspot. It would simply say, "Failed To Connect". I then tried rebooting my phone and it didn't solve it. The only thing I could do was go back to a nand backup I had made. I was then able to connect. Could it be something with the kernel?

Edit: was running Nightly 19 stock.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CruzECO13:
I checked one more thing before giving up and on my LCD Monitor i went into settings. Found inside Advanced menu > DVI Video Mode > 2 options (RGB Color Space and YUV Color Space) It was set on YUV. I selected RGB and Viola!!! Color is all there :)

The only issues left Im experiencing is constant force closes if i try to go into display options inside the app. Also, it says "Start Mirroring" even when you are already in mirror mode to shut it off (Not really a big deal)

Edit: It's more of a hit and miss issue i have. Now it starts and wont mirror. Oh well. Fantastic Job on the project :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
CM7 nightly 18

Kernel from OP

HDMwIn 1.02

Ran 800x600 and 480P benches. Getting FC's now when trying to access options after test runs to change resolution. Will continue to mirror after app FC's.

Haters gonna hate.

Awesome job guys. Here's a list of features I would like to see if it's even possible at this point:

- kick

- even

- more

- ass
[EVO 4G Android Development] pureEVO91:
Just wondering see a lot o people having issues. Is their a true benefit to the app on the market over the beta? Why not stay with the beta if its functioning?
