I'd like to mount this in the kitchen and connect the phone to my home server so I could stream audio/video while we're cooking. Haven't cracked the unit open yet to see the guts and determine if this is possible. Any thoughts/ideas?Paxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07402410182752209890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494320883029239656.post-15548803695691218902013-04-27T12:23:49.670-07:002013-04-27T12:23:49.670-07:00I'm not having any luck either.

I only have the HDMI female adapter and this doesn't act like a dumb monitor like the older Atrix dock. I'll continue to try it out before putting it on craigslists.fortysomethinggeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15749612412800861345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494320883029239656.post-74494297043230154282013-04-27T11:10:06.918-07:002013-04-27T11:10:06.918-07:00I have not been able to get the device to stay on....I have not been able to get the device to stay on. It will display the HDMI signal briefly, but then shut off (but even getting this far is not trivial since the RPI will also auto-senses for HDMI so I modified the boot config to keep the HDMI output alive on the Raspberry).<br /> The pin 3-to-4 grounding trick (Google for "<br />Raspberry Pi Lapdock HDMI cable work-around") is very hard to attempt since even when I got the case open (with involves partially breaking it) the HDMI pins are hidden away. I have not tested it (yet).<br /> If you have any success, please feel encouraged to share it.dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09898248110571105436noreply@blogger.com
