i am running cm7 tg reloaded and was wondering if there is a cm7 rom that has "hdmi out" working? i do not want another rom because the media profiles are not to my liking at all and i would like to avoid having to reflash just to use hdmi out. any suggestions would be appreciated and thank you.
 
I've had a quick look around Google and the consensus seems to be that it is not working for CM7. Even for my device on CM9 they haven't got it working yet, but perhaps soon someone will figure it out for CM7 or backport it.

Nope- g60madman's new version of CM7.2 has made progress toward getting it working on CM7/CM9, but is currently only outputting a blue screen. You'll have to go with Froyo right now if you want working HDMI. Sorry! :(
 
You don't have to re flash... just restore your froyo backup of you really need hdmi. If you have it setup the way you like, it only takes a few minutes.
 
i do have a froyo back up....but when i would wanna switch back to cm7, would u have to reinstall and re update all my apps each time or would the backup save the hassle? I know that titanium backup does....but it requires a manual install of each one each time. i wonder if its possible to have a dualboot where there is a way to have the best of both worlds...or copy hdmi files to cm7 rom files or cm7's media profile to overright froyos media profile...just some thoughts...it may work. save time and the need of recovory.

Make a nandroid backup using the custom recovery (CWM, TWRP, etc...) that way it will make an exact copy of your current setup... apps and all... and you won't needs to worry about re-installing everything again or lose anything.

Btw, that is what you're instructed to do before installing just about every ROM on this forum.
