Is this a hardware or a software issue? Do you think that someone could hack HDMI out to mirror what's on the screen of the Evo on the TV?

Orrebmas is a stud! Congrats HERE is the first public beta for sense roms, root is needed. Also some the modules and such are needed, so flash THIS after installing the .apk.

WOOT!

So who is working on it?? This is the only thing that so far I don't like about the EVO. I really want to be able to watch sprint tv on my TV, just for ESPN mobile. But it sucks that the function is not really fully utilized.

I read in another forum or post here, that the maker of 'Real HDMI' is getting an Evo and will be working on this.

Hey ... What article or forum did you see where the guy was working on the full hemisphere control ? I would like to keep up with the work being done on it. This is one of the things that would rock if I could get decent playback of the movies downloaded to my phphone or maybe a little Justin tv or adthe...

Just got my EVO so I am still learning. Are you guys saying that the HDMI out doesn't show TV? I was thinking aabout getting Slingbox and using my phone to be able to watch my tv at camp thru my phone and an HDMI cable. It sounds like that won't work.

Guess this thread is hitting a dead end ? I dont see anywhere that Gman is working on an app for the EVO ? Anybody know of anyone else that may be working on this ?

Correct, it won't work.

HTC crippled the HDMI out feature to only allow personal movies you made on your Evo using the built in camera and photos to use the HDMI out port.

Individual applications can enable it but other than that it is a wasted port. I am sure someone will 'fix' this issue one way or another.

There's a few apps outside of the gallery app that can use the hdmi function. MediaFly, TV.com, Rock Player just to name a few. There's definitely a way to get all media to play someone just needs to mess around with it.... Surprised nobody has..

So everything is at a stand still ? I was really hoping there would be more interest in it . I would love to be able to use Swarm to download a movie and then plug it in where ever I go just plug and play . That would be awesome. I sent Gman a mesage just to check , but I know he haas his hands full..
