Root Need a custom ROM like CM10 or AOKP that supports HDMI out.

My RAZR XT912 is my dedicated Pioneer AppRadio brain. I leave it in my car on a dock and the display is mirrored on my head unit. But the stock ROM is boring, and way too stock-android-phone-ish to look suitable in the dashboard of the 'Vette. So today I installed AOKP and made a beautiful tablet style layout with on-screen navigation buttons and a black / red jellybean theme. Only to find that HDMI output doesn't work at all in AOKP, or a number of other ROMs either, for that matter. Which makes it useless to me.

So my question to you, Phandroid, is this. Are there ANY existing ROMs for the XT912 that do have HDMI out? I don't care if it's JB or ICS, 4.2.2 or 4.2.1 or 4.1, doesn't matter whatsoever. Just has to support themes like AOKP does, preferably allow tablet UI, and that's it.

Really it doesn't even have to be a CDMA ROM, the cellular or LTE radios don't even have to work, only WiFi.

Any ideas?

For better visibility I moved your question to where root-related issues on your phone are discussed.

Thanks Thom.

Will HDMI work if I use a 4.2.1 ROM? If so where can I find one?

HDMI is not fixed and supported on any ROM that is not stock-based. Any kexec ROM will not support or have HDMI out. Only stock 4.1.2 based ROMs
