Ok, just flashed over to SZ kernel and duplicated the issue on HDMwIn. You may want to check the SZ thread for solutions as it is my understanding the HDMI code was in place as of yesterday afternoon for SZ.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sling:
yes thats the format you want.

I posted some trailers in that format a few pages back 87-90
[EVO 4G Android Development] aznmode:
I get rid of the side bars in landscape mode by changing the HDMwIn resolution to 1280x720. Basically the screen zooms in slightly but enough to hide the bars. I dont need to mess with the TV settings.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aznmode:
I'm using SZ 0.2.1 and I don't have this issue. Are you guys both using Destroyer? I'm on Cyanogen #21.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
I'm on CM19 but am updating to 23 to double check (and update the benches)

[EVO 4G Android Development] Cjunior:
dummy question what is SZ 0.2.1 ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] FusionX:
Savaged-Zen Kernel version 0.2.1

http://www.savaged-zen.org/
[EVO 4G Android Development] mntbkr:
I tryed it on sense and it did the same, so I'm thinking something is wrong with my hdmi port or the cable. Almost seems like it's shooting out because the phone gets really hot too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] FusionX:
This was happening to me last night as well. I also noticed previously that if I gently wiggle the connector in the port it will cause HDMI to flicker on and off. Sucks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gratefldiver:
Portrait means vertical picture, you need either auto rotate selected or landscape instead of portrait
[EVO 4G Android Development] pjsnyc:
I'm having similar issues. Someone please help! I posted a longer description a few pages back. Search wasn't working at the time, but after searching now it seems a few others are having similar issues with the custom Sense kernel.

Edit - 4g seems fine fwiw
[EVO 4G Android Development] nc_carol:
wow.. I'm confused. Which kernel are we supposed to be using now?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Blitzpwnage:
Try reflashinh the kernel that worked for me after my wifi broke.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
if you're on cm7, use the cm kernel. if on sense, use netarchy's sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nc_carol:
oh sorry.. (stupid girl) I'm on CM7 N23. I had been using the HDMwIn one recommended. Is that still the one to go with? Just flashed 23 this morning and thought I saw where SZ was now the one (not it)
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
personally, i stick with stock (not a fan of sz). i'd say flash the kernel in the op and install the app from the market. it makes it easier for updates that way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pjsnyc:
Thanks, ill try that. Though I just read above that installing hdmwin afterwards is better? I believe I installed the app first, then flashed the kernel. Is it possible that is causing my WiFi problems?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nc_carol:
thanks, that's what I did.. tested with some hulu on my tv all good! yay! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] sling:
ya that's been done same bar results are had :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] sling:
Same here.

It adds confusion flashing this & that kernel making it harder for developers to sure up app builds.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
Getting "cable not detected" on CM7 n23, SZ 0.2.1 (3-16-11) w/ HDMwIn v1.08. Not sure if it's the kernel or the app. Would like to complete benching and testing today. Feedback

HDMI output shows that V-Sync off introduces refresh errors in lower left corner in testing at all resolutions on Sense and AOSP.(see attached pics)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkelle4:
part of this statement is the understatement of the century
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Does this happen with the stock app?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
100% of this statement is correct.

Swyped from my EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] rushco:
Works great. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] sling:
Going into detail hope Im not over stepping.

Lots of Custom kernels floating around which more then likely aren't implementing needed changes for new app versions being released pretty much everyday.

There definitely will be clash running such kernels dump them go stock make it easy on shinzul to sure build.

When apps solid less bugs on stock its up to kernel builders to match or improve their kernel performance with app
[EVO 4G Android Development] daewootech:
nothing happened with mine, Tv says 70p signal recognized but it was blank, and the app says cable undetected, im running CM7 nightly #19 (upgrading to 23 as i type this) and i think kings kernal, but i saw you have a kernal for it i guess i have to use that instead and maybye itll work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] akastixx:
To those who cannot get video to fill the screen:

If your home screen fills the screen, you are all set, regardless of whether videos don't (I'll explain why below). It might be sideways if you are on Sense, but that is Sense, not the app.

Please make sure the video originally was supposed to fill the tv screen. Some apps stretch their video to fill your phone, and there is really no way to check. Hdmwin does not reproduce that effect, so your video won't fill the entire tv screen in those apps. Try some of the movie trailers posted. They should be the right native resolution to properly fill your phone and tv screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sling:
Great post although app needs to fit screen which it currently doesn't.

With my TV HD1 setting expands image being taken alimenting all side bars viewing 720p content and above through directv Thats the norm the way it should be on all displays.

With app its not the case , maybe adding custom setting were user can add there own res number to fit screen would get the job done.

The current stretch function goes well overboard displaying terrible image I'm sure many will agree.
[EVO 4G Android Development] akastixx:
Yeah, my post wasn't meant to be a you're doing it wrong, it was aimed at the people who can clearly see the home screen full screen after adjusting.

Maybe in your case the tv is the culprit. Do you have another one (heh or the electronics section of a store) to test on?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sling:
oh no no I didn't take it wrong it was excellent post.

I was touching on what apps not doing correctly of the bat no current setting can fix.

This is a big deal for Plasma TV owners like myself.Those side bars produce serious image retention that does major damage to phosphors and degrades viewing.

If custom resolution setting can be added were users type in their own numbers problem will be fixed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lokifish Marz:
Benchmarks and analysis updated. Net 4.3.4 HDMI is now the standard kernel for Sense (except for Stock Rooted/ Stock Kernel). The TW AOSP HDMI kernel is now the standard for CM7. Baseline data has been added as well as V-Sync OFF and 720P at the approval of both devs.

The fully updated chart represents @ 10hrs of benching and testing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] artlan:
One thing some people may need to check (and I don't know if this was brought up here already, so if so just ignore me.) is some TVs have their own zoom/stretch/scale settings which people tend to "Set it and Forget it". If someone is having problems with images not fitting, they may also want to check their TVs settings and turn some of those off to see what impact they have as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xguju:
Savaged Zen has not been working for me either. I also kept getting the cable not plugged in error. Tired the win kernel and it worked on first try. guessing that the SZ needs some tweaks

Stick to the one in OP for now, or nightly 23+ have hdmi support built in.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Version 1.1.0 posted in the market!

No longer requires an accelerated kernel! Of course, an accelerated kernel grants better performance and more resolutions supported, but it's no longer required...

Also overscan now has a percentage indicated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jamsterzak:
You never cease to amazing me my friend...thanks for the update:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] brokentoaster24:
You're an update machine, your work is appreciated :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] rushco:
New module available! Click to download.

Start download

FC

everytime.
[EVO 4G Android Development] timtlm:
I think there's some issues when updating from an older version. It said I didn't have an accelerated kernel even though I do. Clear data or uninstall and reinstall should fix.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Amco:
Nice job teamwin!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Can you post a logcat of this happening please? Also try clearing your app data.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rushco:
I tried clearing the app data and uninstalling and reinstalling.
[EVO 4G Android Development] deviouskater:
Is there a new kernal to download. Or using the same one
[EVO 4G Android Development] rushco:
"HDMwIn v1.1.0 - No longer requires custom kernel! CM7 nightly 23+ has HDMwIn support"
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkelle4:
Did you wipe cache and dalvik-cache before flashing? Even if you think you did, try doing it again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
kmsg would be the most useful actually, because it will show kernel panic.

adb shell cat /proc/kmsg

Or if the phone has rebooted already, use last_kmsg

adb shell cat /proc/last_kmsg
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cjunior:
i did but i do it again hope it works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
It is also possible you got a bad download somehow. Try re-downloading and wipe cache/dalvik-cache and flash it again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse

For those considering using the EVO (or any other Android phone, for that matter) as a webtop device, I must warn you that it will be a bit frustrating. Android is clearly designed for touch screen use. If you use a Bluetooth mouse, you don't get a mouse pointer. The mouse acts just like the trackball found on earlier Android phones. It's probably not even worth getting a mouse since the arrow keys on your keyboard work the same as the mouse.

Mouse/Trackball/Arrow keys work pretty well in many cases, but not in all cases. For instance, as you arrow your way around your home screen, you will see the highlight move around from icon to icon. Unfortunately, you cannot arrow your way to many widgets. Some apps aren't designed to work very well with arrow keys. I found browsing the web to be a somewhat difficult process between scrolling and trying to select various links on the page. It might be more do-able in a different browser such as Opera Mini.

There's also this issue which still existed last I checked, that also affects the mouse:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/3806-bluetooth-keyboard-mouse-rotation-issue/
[EVO 4G Android Development] aikeru:
Woot! Thanks Shinzul! Looking forward to testing this out ... may have to wait until I get home ...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cjunior:
Thanks Shinzul i will give it a try, im redownloading right now.:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] RichTJ99:
Any thoughts on if this will work on CM6.X?
[EVO 4G Android Development] pardonmyownage:
I too got an hdmi cable in like November... whenever i plug it in it freezes the screen and eventually reboots into a whitescreen bootloop. i'm 95% sure its the cable. it happened when i first got it on a basic sense rom. froze and rebooted. i figured it was the rom then... but now i'm thinking its the HDMI. (could be my tv? Hitachi). i'm thinking of ordering a new cable and seeing if this fixes the problem...
[EVO 4G Android Development] laydros:
I haven't used a bluetooth mouse with CM7 yet, but under CM6 it had a cursor, and I think by 6.1.2 the rotation issue was resolved for the mouse. The original fix only allowed the mouse to move 480 pixels left and right when in landscape, so it didn't really help, but I think that was resolved later.

With a mouse the primary (left button) was working as a normal screen tap, and I think the right button was working as either the back or menu button.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
I appreciate that there are options available, but this thread is for discussion of HDMwIn. Please avoid discussing and/or comparing other options available.

Thanks! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Thanks for the report!

When you say "large areas of screen not refreshing" what exactly do you mean? Would it be possible for you to record a video of this happening or take a picture?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bradleyw801:
Testing on CM6 now, will report results.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
That gives me something to try tomorrow when I have a little more time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] brokentoaster24:
I notice some screen tearing while using scrollable widgets, like the friends widget with lp. Anyone else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
@ bradleyw801

Please discuss pros/cons of other HDMI solutions in the respective thread or start a new one. This thread is not a place to advertise or thrash the development activity.
[EVO 4G Android Development] adeyo:
Anyone know if this would work with CM 6? (I have CM7, just wondering bc I have tons of video things I can test if I nandroid back)

Also, does this utilize the previously unused graphics processor? (I know Orremas' kernel utilized this and I wonder if there is some way to capitalize on this.)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
It probably will work with CM6, but I don't think anyone has tried it. There may be a few things that don't work under CM6 with this kernel, but the only way to find out is to try. If you try it, let us know your results.

Yes, this very much uses the GPU in the EVO. Part of the reason that this requires a kernel is due to the changes that have been made to the drivers by our teamwin GPU expert.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cjunior:
okey Shinzul, i may need a little hand here...

i try everything i could think of: redownloaded

frash install: wipping everything,(rom + google apps + hdmi) stuck (rom + google apps. wait login reboot wipe cache/dalvik-cache several times flash hdmi) stuck tryed (rom + google app wipe cache/dalvik cache then HDMI ) stuck. tryed (rom + hdmi ) samething.

any help or other sugestion :confused:

thanks. man
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Huh, weird.

In your terminal, do this:

su

rm -rf /data/hdmid/

Then run the app again and download the modules again.

[EVO 4G Android Development] fmedina2:
When I open the app it tells me I can install a custom kernel for acceleration, but it just sends me to the first post of this thread. I don't see this kernel anywhere however. Running CM7 23
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Its in the OP under the CM kernel label

http://tinyw.in/O1
[EVO 4G Android Development] fmedina2:
Thank you. I assumed that was the stock kernel for some reason.
[EVO 4G Android Development] deviouskater:
What screen tells you if you have an accelerated kernal. I don't see it
[EVO 4G Android Development] jamsterzak:
About phone you'll find it
[EVO 4G Android Development] deviouskater:
I know that. Doesn't the updated app tell you. It was noted in change log.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
The app will tell you only if you don't have an accelerated kernel. There's also a bug where if you have data from an older version app, it will tell you that you need an accelerated kernel even if you have one already.

But you can just clear the app data and it should stop.
[EVO 4G Android Development] deviouskater:
Gotcha. Thanks shinzul
[EVO 4G Android Development] KERKEDAGAIN:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
I don't know what to say Teamwin...First off, this is beautiful. Thank you so much. Secondly, because you stay true to what "donate" means I will actually buy the app :) I guess I'm not a fan of devs who say "The donate version includes x,y,z,1,2,3, and r." Then it's not a donate version, it's a lite and paid version. You guys are the class of Android devs. Here's to you guys :cool:

When I hold my phone in landscape with the HDMI on the right the picture is upsidedown on the TV.. sorry if mentioned already. Maybe its just me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JFizDaWiz:
I had the original release with the custom kernal working on MIUI however it borked the wifi.

Haven't had a chance with the new release that doesn't require the new kernal yet. will test later or just give it a try for me :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ahavens17:
I was able to get it working with MIUI 1.2.11, only with the kernel provided in the OP for cm7. With that kernel however it seems to break my wifi. Some people stated a few pages back it may also break usb support, but I haven't tested it. Also with custom kernel in OP, when pressing the power button to pull up the lock screen, it tends to lag. I find myself having to unlock the phone without the screen actually being on yet. (anyone using MIUI has probably experienced how quickly the lock screen times out and fades back off) If you are able to look past those issue, on MIUI in my experience it looks great and works very well.

With the 1.1.2 update to HDMwIn, i tried to use a couple kernels that I usually use with MIUI (instead of custom kernel in OP), however I get a cable not detected error with any combination of resolutions, vsync, overscan, or scaling combinations I've tried. I find myself using wifi more than HDMwIn, so to use the app I'll probably just flash back to the custom kernel as needed, until someone can provide a fix or workaround (if at all possible).

This is by no means a dig on the work and progress you have accomplished, the time and effort you guys have put into making this function for this community is astounding, so thank you!
[EVO 4G Android Development] pardonmyownage:
I keep updating the app and kernel hoping this will work on my TV. A Hitachi. Always freezes and rebooted. I did have a chance today to test it on my parents Sony. Worked excellent. I just wish I could use this at my house.

You guys seem to know why its doing what its doing, just hope there is eventually a fix.

Not my phone or cables. 100 percent my TV...
[EVO 4G Android Development] lacrossev:
ran in to a bit of trouble. Updated to 1.1.2 from 1.0.7 today and now my portrait seems to have shifted up a bit to where half the bar is out of the frame. Played around with resolutions and overscan but nothing seems to bring it back down. Also the autorotate doesn't quite work as it did in 1.0.7. Would this have something to do with it going kernel-less?

Edit: and not more than 5 minutes later it would appear i have fallen victim to user error :p , damn tv had its own overscan settings in it
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
We are working on a fix for tv's that don't recognize the right EDID data... should be soon. I will be out of town this weekend, but maybe a fix available sunday night? Or early next week.

Insignia TV now working

With the latest HDMwIn (1.1.2) and netarchys kernel (beta 4.3.4) my Insignia TV is now working with my phone (minus audio for some unknown reason, none through phone or TV). Before TV did not register for either stock or HDMwIn now working with both.

TV: Insignia 32" NS-L322Q-10A

ROM: Turbo Stock

Kernel: Netarchy's Beta 4.3.4 (move havs-no sbc)

[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
In case there are any Myn fans out there, this works perfectly with WarmZ (nightly) and Nets 4.3.4 kernel. Had my Slingbox streaming a hockey game from my phone to my TV (sound and all!) which is insanely cool. Going to go buy the 'donate' version now :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] rstuckmaier:
Shinzul, could I get a little clarification please: Is the current CM nightly a fully "accelerated" kernel?

Before anyone tries to complain some have said it is and some not. The subtitle here says "HDMwIn support" but I just wanted to make sure.

PS: I looked through the accelerated CM7 zip and it doesn't have the app in it but the scripting includes an "unpacking apk" (or something). Just a heads up. I think this was the part that bothered me the most. I kept thinking that reflashing the kernel would overwrite the current apk so I kept clearing data, uninstalling, redownloading from the market... I think I need a drink.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rushco:
2 pages back.

I flashed the latest nightly and it did not tell me anything so the latest nightly has the accelerated kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Nightly 23+ has the accelerated kernel included. And no it does not replace the app ;-).
