HDMI for Xperia U Solution?

I found on my service setting using xperia U that is has HDMI Test availability ( dial this if you want to test it *#*#7378423#*#* on the last part you can see HDMI test ). but technically xperia U has MAJOR NO NO NO for HDMI port but what if we could have some generic HDMI port which can port to USB port Like this http://www.cablewholesale.com/specs/10v3-44106.htm

SO SONY U THINK THIS COULD WORK ? Slightly_smiling_Face

on below my screenshot of my xperia U of the HDMI test :

I don't think it will work unfortunately and the reason for HDMI test being included is because the service menus are all the same for all new phones. Xperia U doesn't have any encoded software for viewing pictures or playing audio through the USB port, so in order for this to work you would have to modify the software.

I think Johan was talking about Samsumg phones that have tv out by usb.

Do you think that this samsung hdmi cable could work on xperia U because if isnt i have no choice but to buy livedock so i could connect my xperia u to tv..i really want it to be connected on tv 🙂

I've heard livedock isnt for connect to tv. It is for work like a dock, a little station with simple functions.

Xperia U supports DLNA, so it might be the closest thing to connecting to tv.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfeh6mYB76U

Im sure u dont know what are u talking. The xperia Arc is conected to tv through hdmi port and not by livedock.

Look at 50 seconds and the guy says clearly.
