Don't know if this is the answer you're looking for, try to use the mirror selection.

Actually I heard this is an open bug (at least according to Sprint) that has already been reported, no ETA yet on a fix.

"Mirror display" works every time.

There is no open bug. You have to follow the directions. This video on YouTube helps explain. MOTOROLA PHOTON 4G: Mirror Mode - YouTube

Plug cable into your TV. Plug other end into the Photon (ensure it's a proper cable that meets technical criteria). You will be presented with with a menu that gives you the option to select "Mirror Mode." If not then you've either disabled some of the Moto apps (either specifically or via a task mgr or battery saver app) or maybe running a customized ROM or software.

I don't get a menu to select mirroring. I know what you're referring to because I used to have it. It's not an option now. I just get a Motorola logo on the tv. Mirroring used to work a few weeks ago, so something has changed with the phone. I'm not running a custom ROM, haven't disabled anything and no special software. Rebooting doesn't help. Anyone found a fix?

I was having a similar problem but what I found was that following the instructions exactly -- including the order in which you plug the cables into things -- does help. For example, I believe everything has to be hooked up on the display side before you plug the cable into the phone.

Sometimes if you just pull out the cord and plug it in again it'll come up.

You also might try rebooting phone.

Those have usually worked for me to get it running.
