Guest Cloudmaster Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 (edited) Hi, I have cable CA-75U from my old Nokia 5800. I wish i can connect my OSF with this calbe to TV and then watch pictures or video on my TV. Is it possible? Edited January 12, 2011 by Cloudmaster
Guest fonix232 Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 Nope, it is not possible. The 5800's output was designed to send screen image too, while the standard Android jack output is for sound only. BUT, with the USB host kernels, and a proper USB hub, you can easily push the signal to your TV.

I seem to recall a similar post in XDA-Developers on the G1 many moons ago - don't think anything came from it.

I seem to recall a similar post in XDA-Developers on the G1 many moons ago - don't think anything came from it. Well, something like that. The phone's jack output must be connected to an image processing unit, and the chip must direct image through the jack connection when called to have image output. The best you can get from such a cable (I have one too, already tried) is sound output for a stereo device or something like that).
Guest Swimmerboy Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 Ah, no - I was meaning that some devices now do video-out via the usb connector. Unfortunately it's not something that can be emulated in software (well, not without a large grant and a team of researchers!) and has to have the chip performing the functions.

Sven has done usb host mode on his Blade. So the Blade could route video to usb data. On his website he gives a bunch of details, and for more details and a video, see his N1 page. http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad.../usb-host-mode/ This is something waiting to be picked up by a rom Dev ...
