Hey guys sorry if this is a very basic question, but I am unable to find the beta .apk, is this still available for bets testing?
Thanks,

So, you are saying that audio should work over HDMI for AOSP roms, even without any type of modified kernel? That's amazing! The progress this app has made is astounding. You really are offering a universal, turnkey solution.
I can't wait to test this when I get home tonight.
Just downloaded and it immediately worked on my extra Insignia 19" lcd at work. Will try at home with a panasonic 50" and an insignia 32". Thanks from another unrooted user. This is nice to have.
Does anyone recommend a spcific hdmi cable?
Everytime I plug the hdmi cable to my EVO it freezes then restarts....

Does this happen even when the cable isn't connected to a display? I'm also on the FullHDMI support chat today.
No, as soon as I plug the phone to the TV or my audio receiver (which I would prefer to have better sound) the phone freezes.
My receiver's brand is Onkyo and my tv is VIZIO.
I've heard other people having the same issue (not with this app in particular) any app or no app but I thought I would post it here since everyone here is using a hdmi cable
This doesn't sound like a cable issue. The Evo has compatibility issues that result in lock-ups or resets. The best way to make sure it isn't your cable is to try your Evo on another device.
Hi guys, just wanted to provide some input with the same issue that I've been dealing with for a couple weeks. It most likely is not your cable that is freezing the EVO.
When I first beta-tested the FullHDMI when it first became available, with a BestBuy Dynex cable, worked very well on my 32' Westinghouse LCD. I return the cable after a few days of testing, getting an adapter and full cable online, as the Dynex was 6 foot and not enough. This was with MikFroyo 4.5 I believe, and made a nandroid backup.
A few weeks later, I'm ready to start testing again. I start doing my research and see that there is another method, and as I prefer AOSP (CM7 Nightlies) I tried it out. The phone has since always frozen on my Westinghouse, but NOT on my roommate's 50' plasma. I have tried a multitude of kernels (stock, HDMI-accelerated ones), ROMs (many CM nightlies, Warm RLS 5, Fresh, and a couple more), with both mirroring solutions, and also stock Sense functionality. I even tried the Dynex cable that previously worked on my Westinghouse, with my old nandroid, and it still freezes.
Through my research I've read that it's an EDID parsing error in the kernel, but I don't understand why older sense ROMs with stock kernels are freezing now. My old MikFroyo nandroid worked great before I ventured into any other solutions...

The EDID bug is a major part of the problem and it's rumored that a fix is going to be merged with CM and will probably not take long for it to filter down to the kernel devs. The other, less common issue, is a display having a bad EDID to begin with. My Sharp Aquos had this problem and required a firmware fix.
To those that have tried to find me on the site chat, I've been on and off today. I'm using my Evo in a "DESKTOP' config and if I leave the chat page for more than a minute of two it times out and I have to log in.

Been waiting for non-rooted compatability. Thanks for all the great work! Purchased and installed this evening. Glad to report it works well. I've been waiting for this and following your development closely. Guess I'll stick around a while longer. 
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
It works perfectly on CM7 but does not work at all on any of the 3 sense ROMs I use, it says the cable is unpplugged.
Which Sense Roms you did not have luck with? Do you have another hdmi mirroring app installed on there or ever had it?
This is a very key question. If you install the other HDMI mirroring app, it changes alot of the inner workings of your phone. The best way to completely remove it is a nandroid backup to before you ever installed it, or complete wipe and re-flash your rom.
I installed HDMwIn, and it caused issues with Myns Warm 2.2. But even after I uninstalled, I kept having problems with things like wifi tether, and compatibility with this app.
The only way to fix it was to do a complete wipe, and then I flashed a different rom.
The stock ROM, Fresh, and Sprint Lovers. I tried it with the kernel that comes with them and I tried them with the "netarchy-toastmod-4.3.4-cfs-nohavs-suv-nosbc-universal-signed" kernel with the same result. I do not have any other mirroring application installed.
I don't mean to be redundant, but can you please clarify if this means you NEVER had the other app installed, or if you just don't have it installed now?
I am not sure what other app you are refering to but no, the only ever app I installed is this one. What if I had installed it though? I would not be able to use this one?
When you plug the HDMI cable into your phone does the stock HDMI icon appear in the notification bar?
You would, but as bradley mentioned, you would need a to perform a full wipe in order for this to work properly. We are trying to rule things out. When you are on a Sense rom, are you able to use the native HDMI functions (like the Youtube app) while not using this app?

Not sure what's going on. While I was updating the benchmarks today I double checked a number of ROMs and had no issues on the following:
Stock OTA
Stock OTA Rooted
Stock OTA w/ Net 4.3.4
VaelPak 3.2
VaelPak 3.2 w/ Net 4.3.4
CM6
CM6 w/ Savage-Zen 0.2.1
CM7 RC4
CM7 RC4 w/ Savage-Zen 1.0.1
These were all tested for compatibilty using fresh installs. I'd suggest trying a fresh install of your ROM/Kernel and see if you have the same problem.
BTW- Benchmarks have been updated (posted on the site) to FullHDMI 1.3.2 and HDMwIn 1.2.5. Will also be avail for support chat for the next couple hours.
