Motorola Droid X :: Can I Output My DV Screen To Another Monitor?
Aug 10, 2010
I have a Pioneer AVH-P3100DVD Car DVD Player with inputs for Auxiliary, TV, and an AV input (as seen here. I'm wondering if there is anyway for me to use one of these inputs to export the screen from my Droid to it. The dvd player is touchscreen, but I don't presume I'll be able to actually control my DX with it, but it would be nice if I could show the navigation on it since it is a 7 inch screen.I also currently have my phone setup with the Motorola car mount and it records video everytime I dock it.So it would be nice if that display would show up on my radio monitor in addition to being on the phone. Or maybe be able to play movies and video clips from my phone on the monitor.Before I invest in cables and trying to take out my radio and plug anything in back there, does anyone know if this is feasible? I've tried to plug it just straight into the auxiliary jack on the front of my stereo but that didn't do anything.I assume it will need to plug into the AV or TV input connections if it does indeed work.

Is there any way to redirect cell phone output to a standard screen?Would it be possible on Linux & X-server based devices - like Maemo? And on Android devices?

What is a good temp monitor app for the sholes ROM's? I read in the market that TempMonitor doesn't work with sholes. SetCPU shows it, but I'd love a widget or for it to show up in the notification bar.

I know there was a discussion of using a temp monitor app back when Taz had kernels that could access it, but now that BB 1.0 uses BeKit is there an app that can monitor cpu temp again?
I think setCPU monitors battery temp which I guess is ok, but it's not perfect. Is there another program that monitors battery temp (if CPU temp not available) without using setCPU?

I am pretty happy with the stock 2.1 OTA.. But I would like to overclock the phone, and use a temp monitor to keep it safe.
I have looked around in the "all things root" and most post seem to be about putting on a different ROM.
Is there an easy way to just get Root access, and then put on SetCPU..

I'm running BB1.1 at 1.2Ghz. Yes, my Droid gets hot, but it also got hot before I rooted. I work out of the office all day and rely on my Droid to stream Rhapsody, Air1 and DroidLive as well as some long phone calls. The heat generated has never caused a *problem*, but I sure don't want to create one either.
So, I'm wondering, how hot is too hot; and, what is the best way to keep an eye on it?

This might be a dumb question but is there an app to monitor the heat of your droid internally? You can probably guess why..

I'm toying with the idea of making a car dock for my Droid. The official Droid dock doesn't work with any cases and if the iPhone is any indication, no one will ever make one that does. Plus, it doesn't do everything I want.
I want to plug my phone in with as little fuss as possible, have it charge, output audio to my car stereo through USB. Charging is absolutely necessary, and I want to avoid using the headphone jack for audio if I can because it's an extra thing I'd have to plug in rather than just sliding the phone right in the dock. Better yet if the USB audio output is a constant volume intended for control on another device.
So.. Is it possible? If I need hack a car charger in to a usb audio cable I'm fine with that (unless I could get both in one). This thing would do it, but it looks like it has more pins than standard usb (can't really tell in that pic, but maybe someone knows?), and the Droid doesn't.
My other options are connecting the Droid directly to the head unit via USB and mounting it as a mass storage device, but I prefer the way the Droid handles music better than the head unit, and mounting the USB is an extra step I'd probably get too lazy for. And finally, I'd considered making an app that spoofs an iPod, since my HU has iPod controls, but that's more work than it's worth when the Android music player's controls are just as good.

I got sholes from the market last night and i absolutely LOVE it. I just have a few questions about my OC profile and a temp monitor
Right now my profile is set to
Charging:
Max 1
min 250
Sleep/Standby:
Max 550
Min 125
Power <100%
Max 800
Min 250
Failsafe
Max 550
Min 125
Do those look ok? Also what program works with Sholes to monitor battery and CPU temps?

just wondering if anyone has tried getting video output with a 3.5mm to RCA cable. wonder if it may be less restrictive than the HDMI hookup... but I'm getting ahead of myself: I'm not even sure if it works at all. Anyone wanna give it a shot? TBH it probably won't work, but we may as well give it a shot right?

I'd like to use my Moto Droid in my car using as few as cables as possible. Does anyone know if there is way to connect just the USB cable so I can charge the droid and get analog audio too? I would like to connect one cable to the droid when I get in my car and not mess with the 3.5 audio connector or an FM modulator etc. I was thinking there may be a cable that connects to the droids usb and can charge the droid and have a 3.5 auxiliary audio output to plug into my stereo.
I read a few of the threads on the forum but couldn't locate the answer and it doesnt seem any of the similar 3-1 or 2-1 products I find list the moto Droid as an approved device.

I have been curious, as to whether there is a Digital Output option for the Motorola Droid. I would like to set the phone so all output through the headphone jack is digital, that way, I could have it run through a dedicated DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) and use superior (and dedicated) audiophile equipment. If this is not possible, is there any third party programs that can or do make this possible?

Can the Dx output anything other than pics/videos captured with the phone? My Dx is in the mail and was wondering if I should buy a cable because I want to use it to stream youtube or other video content from the phone to tv. If it can not be done now, is that a hardware issue or a software issue that could be changed later? Also so I can control the phone while it is connected to the tv I wanted to get a 15' cable. This is the only one I see but it does not say if it is type D or not. Does that matter?

Amazon.com: Genuine Motorola Droid P323 Battery Charger System: Electronics Amazon.com: Motorola BP6X A855 Droid OEM 1300mah Standard Battery: Cell Phones & Service Anyone use these 2 items from Amazon? I'd like to get a second battery and an external charger, this seems like a cheap solution while keeping OEM parts. The only thing I'm really questioning is the voltage output of the external charger to the battery. Any way to tell if it will charger correctly? If you know the answer, please provide reasoning.

I have a little issue here with my droid's audio output: it seems to be randomly deciding it should come out of the handset rather than the speaker. I notice this happens often when I end a call, that the audio doesn't switch back to the speaker, but it also seems to happen completely at random - for example, it happened at some point when I was asleep last night, which prevented my phone waking me up when my mom was trying to call me this morning, because the ringtone came out of the handset, and thus, was too quiet for me to hear.
Using google voice, I found a workaround - I set voicemails to play through the speaker instead of the handset in the app, so if I go in there and play a voicemail, it'll switch me back to speaker. I can also sometimes get switched back to speaker by making a call, but that's inconsistent, since calls are just as likely to cause the problem as to solve it. I don't know if this is being caused by an app or not.

I've been looking around for ways to display my HTC Desire on an external screen, but only found the HTC tv out cable, and I don't think it works for the desire.Are there any applications to let you view it on a pc screen? Maybe some sort of screen capturing app?

I want to run an activity without ANY screen output. The screen should not blink or anything. How?I have an Appwidget. whenever it gets clicked I want to write something to a DB.So, via 'setOnClickPendingIntent' I start an activity that does that and finishes. But, the screen goes black for a short time, while the activity is running. How can I avoid that? Omitting 'setContentView' does not help, neither does a layout without any views. A service instead of an activity could do that, but I cant start a service by setting a 'setOnClickPendingIntent' (or can I?).

Ive been raking my brains trying to figure out how to play 720p movies on my HDTV in 16:9 aspect ratio (or 1.78), whereas it would fill the screen of the HDTV nicely just like Niko does it in this thread Video Demo: HTC Evo playback of HD/720p movies over HDMI out. I have a couple of 720p bluray movie files on my PC that i want to encode but now im not even really sure if they are really 720p. When i upload them into handbrake, it says that the source resolution is 1280x544 and the other one 1280x528 with a 2.35 aspect ratio. Doesnt the second number have to be 720 in order to be considered true 720p HD resolution? Everytime i try and change the 528 to 720 on hanbrake, it doesnt let me. And also handbrake doesnt havent an option where you can change the aspect ratio. When i finish encoding, i get the stupid black bars. i realize the video file might have been shot in a 2.35 aspect ratio or whatever but when i play it in VLC it allows me to change it to 16:9. Basically, I want the video to come out in 1280x720, 16:9, 1.78 resolution and aspect ratio as its default settings. This would be much easier if VLC was playable on Android. At the end of the day, im just trying to find out how to watch 720p video on the HDTV in fullscreen or almost fullscreen (i know theres a couple of inches of black bars in 16:9) just like the guy in the thread above.

Does anyone have an issue outputting You Tube full screen over 720p? When watching HD videos over HDMI the video has black bars over all sides. When watching videos over 420p, it fills the screen fine, but the quality isn't the same. I've tried on an Insignia and Samsung.

I would like to write to an Android screen as if it were a simple terminal. I want the output to appear at the time I write it. My application does some cpu intensive churning, writes a bit to the screen and continues. I am using a list adapter for the output. The problem is that the output is not displayed until the activity relinquishes.

I've found some garmin heart rate monitors that will work with specialized iPhone apps after syncing via bluetooth.Are there any for the android? I'm suspecting that a bluetooth heart rate monitor is not proprietary so I could pick one up - but I need the app to use on my phone.

I consider that my "About Phone ->battery Use" is not really accurate in my case. Can you advice me regarding another android battery usage monitor application ? I am interested in seeing the exact consumption (in percentage) of each service/application.

I'm trying to make sure I'm not crazy. I have been sitting here at work trying to find an alternative to the photo software that comes on the Eris. I have never been happy with the stock camera app and the pictures it takes. I downloaded an app called Camera 360 from the market. I've been taking several pictures and comparing them side by side. To me, Camera 360 looks like it takes much better pictures. I have emailed myself 3 or 4 pictures so I can compare them on the PC. The stock camera seems to be very blurry when blown up onto a computer monitor. The Camera 360 pictures seem to be clearer and sharper. Granted I'm sitting here at my desk taking pictures of the wall and my feet, so it's possible the Camera 360 software will stink outside.

Is there any way to monitor the performance of a thread on Android phone.
As in any POSIX library?
I want to find the time taken by a "thread" during execution, while many other applications might also be running.
