G+_Warren Blesofsky Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I used to plug my droid 4 into my tv via mini hdmi and use webtop mode to do some minor browsing when I left my laptop at the office. Now that I 'upgraded' to MAXX I don't have HDMI out. I got a chromecast thinking that would solve the problem but have now found out it has way less functionality and no way to get mirror or browser to TV. Any suggestions?

G+_Warren Blesofsky Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Yes. On my old phone I could plug it into the TV as a PC browser replacement. This maxx doesn't have HDMI out. Is there video out hidden in the micro USB or the headphone jack like iPhone. I don't think so..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Warren Blesofsky Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Hi akira. I don't see any Motorola phones on the MHL list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Akira Yamanita Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Joe Phelps The RAZR MAXX has micro HDMI. I'm assuming that he has the newer Droid MAXX, which does not. warren blesofsky Sorry, I based my statement solely on what you said (no HDMI) and what Joe said (that there are cables for your phone). From what I've found so far, it doesn't look like the Droid MAXX has MHL support.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
