Just received my HDMI cable from Amazon; hooked it up to TV; tried several apps; it worked fine. Took phone downstairs to charge and tried the set up again. Now the sound is awful. Any ideas? Thanks.
Make sure it's making good connection lol? Reboot the phone is always a good start. Check your TV's settings, make sure something didn't change. I think there was a setting on mine that I had to fix for sound to work correctly.
Also, IIRC bionic has different default volume settings (adjustable); one for ring, one for voice calls, one for media apps. There may be some "neutral" volume setting for media out that doesn't overpower the other downstream device's input capability.
