It looks like you can plug a micro-usb cable directly into it without a cradle.....is that the case?

Plug it directly in the watch
Can be rooted with kingroot directly from watch with WiFi on. Military time can be changed in build prop. Use mine all day hasn't died once during the day. No input think its a build prop issue I'm no Dev but there is a lot turned off

Very cool. Does it actually have WiFi and GPS as well? And I think the site mentions a 5MP camera (as opposed the GG's 1.3MP). Can you verify this as well?
Starting to sound like the watch the GG should have been.

i changes time format from 24 to 12 it made watch boot loop any ideas??

this is the Mimi W2, right?
http://www.mimi-hk.com/product.php?id_product=23&id_lang=1
seems to me this is more of a U8 clone, it has the same mic/speaker implementation (phone audio is always on the speaker of the watch, you have to switch manually)
also, the Smartwatch2A.apk that can be downloaded for notifications looks/works exactly like BTNotifier that comes with the U8
and one of the U8 firmware updates changed the icons from black/white to color...

Any update on this smartwatch? ROM? Anybody else using it? Can you read email text, not just notification from your phone on this watch?
The reason I'm asking because I found a similar smartwatch for $70 shipped free from GearBest now: http://www.gearbest.com/smart-watches/pp_70658.html - very tempted!!! MIMI W2S doesn't have camera, uses your phones camera for remote, but everything else is similar and very Gear-like

Blank screen through HDMI.Help needed.

I have an Atrix 4G, AT&T branded, but i use it in Europe (unlocked). I have a HD dock. When I'm trying to connect the phone over HDMI (with ot without the dock) blank screen appears on the tv. I'm using the right input, i tried with an LG P990. The phone askes me if i want to use the Entertainment Center or (occasionally) the Webtop. Have you got any idea how to fix this?
System version: 4.5.141.MB860.ATT.en.Us
Webtop version: N_01.77.37.P
It is an unrooted and unmodified phone. What could be the problem? How can i fix it? Thanks for your replies.
Did you use the same cable with the LG P990? Also, have you tried bypassing the dock by plugging straight from the phone to the TV.
i have tried with the LG's cable and the motorola's cable as well. Also i have tried to connect the phone directly to the tv. Same appears on the screen (blank, nothing).
If it never worked, I would guess it's a hardware issue. The only other thing I can think of is do a "clear data" on the webtop app, but I've never done that so do it at your own risk. Anyone else have any ideas?

If you froze extdispservice with an app that prolly killed external HDMI display check that
or you can flash WebtopMOD v1 or fruitcake

usb cam on nexus 7
I have a logitech quickcam pro 9000 mounted on the nexus with sticky mount.
I havent found any application yet to get it working.
I have tried several apks, like "usb cam Controller" and others. Unmounting the camera while this apk is running gives a message "camera detached".

I find most people tend to think anything bigger then a tiny phone or actual camera looks far too silly to use for a camera...
I find the 7 inch tablet standard to be awesome for taking pictures though. I'd be interested in trying to get some external camera to work, just have to see if I even have one lying around though
Check over at slatedroid.com under viewsonic gtablet then under ROM/development. Look through the last 10 pages or so of their ICS thread. They had a USB Cam working (or do a search for USB cam). I'm sure the script or driver could be ported over by someone. Sorry for another website mention, I'm just trying to help. Also you could contact fosser2 at slatedroid (I think he's on xda also).

Paranoid Android and screen mirroring aka Miracast

So I am running the last 3.60 paranoid android and I am having problems with getting a sony Kdl-70r550a to connect to it via screen mirroring that the tv has. I have already updated the TV firmware to the latest that was available. When it does connect, it displays what I can only describe as when an NES cartridge needed to be cleaned or wasn't in all the way. Basically weird blocky artifacts with only small bit of picture color showing.
I have tried changing screen resolution on my phone and even DPI to no avail. I have also tried using a Samsung s4 brand new out of the box, but being Samsung, gives registration failed when attempting to connect.
Sounds like some sort of copy protection. Try turning off hdcp.

This makes perfect sense and would explain it. Problem I have now is that I can only find "Hdcp checking" under developer options, after changing it to never use hdcp checking and trying again, still getting same issue. Any other setting I am missing to disable hdcp?
Flash cm10 there is an option to disable it
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
OK, flashed back to CM10.1. Where is this option located?
Going to request PA to add the feature for disabling hdcp for next stable build.

So I tried and tried and even with the hdcp handshake off gives a picture but its laggy and comes in and out. Has any else tried this with any other brand tvs? At this point I'm blaming Sony, as I know with external devices that support Miracast will work flawlessly. Guess an eventual firmware update may fix it. Buyer beware.
PS thanks for your help.

Tv app

Being that I came from both the S4 and One, I've found myself completely clueless with this phone as to what's on tv and which channels. Both of those phones had apps that controlled the IR blaster and included a tv guide-like app. Do we not have anything like that? I've been looking and just find the remote app.

Damn. I was afraid of that. It amazes me that they did not include something similar to compete with them. I'd like to get more attention drawn so we can find an app, have one made, or make our voices heard by LG.

Sadly it doesn't... But at least it has the guide and I can touch the show I want to watch and it takes me right to it.
they put no effort into the blaster. it's angle is absolutely awful and the htc one and gs4 kill it. if you're one inch off from the direction of the IR in the device, it won't work. it's absolutely terrible... so it doesn't surprise me the software sucks.

I definitely noticed the same thing. I can't seem to figure out what or why it is that way. The One had the best IR blaster in my opinion. I enjoyed it's bundled app more than the S4's too.

Mirrorlink vs MHL Appradio3

So I just bought the appradio3 for my car for use with my S4 and I'm wondering what is the best way to connect it. Ideally I would like full mirroring of my phone to the radio. I already ordered the android kit and the mirrorlink cable so I can chose how I want it set up later and return the other if I don't want it. I found the full screen mirror apk for drivelink already and have it installed currently. ARliberator currently does not support appradio 3.
The question I'm wondering is if drivelink will work with aosp roms as currently I'm using Task's aokp, or will I need to switch to a Samsung based rom, or google edition rom.
No one here has the radio or tried using mirrorlink on aosp?
I've been using Sony xav 601bt with mirror link. Using a modified app of mirror link that allows full mirroring. I have stock s4 on 4.3 with no issues. It can be a little laggy.
Btw I installed my friends app 3 and I absolutely hated it. Requires an additional kit and doesn't allow full mirroring. Also was disappointed in the deck it self just wasn't as great as I thought.
Good luck on your choice.

Thank you for your advice. I just saw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78wq62aErK0 which looks pretty promising. Even better the app is currently free and looks to work very well.

We tried this with my s4 and my friends note 2 and they would not work with full mirroring that's why I was disappointed. But if you get it to work let me k ow what you did please.

Got it to work. It took a minute to get the app radio app working. Had to connect the usb first then enable blue tooth. The phone booted to the default appradio screen then once I hit the home button on my phone I had full screen mirroring.

Nice we will try this out and see how it works. I think he is able to full mirror but can't control his phone. My Sony xav allows me to full mirror and control my phone as well. Just have a bit of lag.

Screen Standby doesn't work with Android 4.3. It seems to be a bug in 4.3 and the developer hasn't found a workaround. Screen Standby works on Samsung 4.4 roms though.

That must be why it severely sucks atm with my 4.3 rom. Haven't found a 4.4 rom I like yet unfortunately, everyone is missing at least one thing I want.
I'm not sure if it's already resolved, but there's an app for that. It's called ARUnchanged. But you have to have root access in order for ARUnchanged to work.
