Root [International] ParanoidAndroid + HDMI ?

[Gomjaba]

Just wondering if someone knows whether the HDMI adapter works with this ROM ?

honestly cant see a reason why not mate. just make sure its specicicly an s3 adaptor, not s2 or anythin else.
if not, jst return it

I certainly have the proper Samsung one but those roms miss a lot branded stuff as it relies on the Samsung framework (stock camera being one example). I wonder if the HDMI adapter requires any Samsung app to work.All Share Cast or something. Might just have to try it but would be a bummer if it won't work because of it.

I think HDMI out is proprietary and will only work on Samsung roms as there is no documentation for devs to get it working

Thats a shame .. I am quite happy with Paranoid Rom but that might just be the tip of the iceberg now .. there are quite a few bugs I can live with but we watch a LOT of HDMI videos via my phone (used to take hours to convert them for the iPad) ...

This is from the CM10 known issues page -

TV Out: unsupported, will never work (proprietary, undocumented)

It is indeed a shame as Paranoid Android looks pretty decent, but you may have to settle with a Samsung ROM if you want to use HDMI

A shame I don't have tons of disposable cash otherwise I would get an S3 just to play with - my contract is due to renewal in 5 months, maybe I am getting an S4 then and keep the S3 as glorified MP3 player and Rom testing

it certainly works with my custom kernel (does that make a difference?

My ROM suddenly got so unstable that I had to remove it now anyways - currently thinking about buying a Nexus 7 as my playground so might give it another shot on a non-essential device
