After about 15 minutes it switched from 720p to 480p and then the only thing that would display was the home screens. Any time I opened an app I would just get horizontal lines on the screen. The phone started to get pretty hot and that might have been what caused the failure. After disconnecting my phone from the tv my sound on my phone didn't work so I had to reboot my phone. Later I noticed the required kernel was burning through my battery like the old days. Battery was dropping fast. The next morning after an evening of charging the battery dropped 20% just from reading a few emails. I switched back to my SBC HTC#15 kernel and my battery returned to great performance again.
To wrap things up, yes this will work with Sprint Lovers. No, it is not ready for prime time. Is it worth trying, yes, if you already have the HDMI cable give it a whirl. When Orebmus gets this thing polished up a little and the kernel optimized this will be a great app. Right now, its only a gimmick to show your iphone pals.

Great review! I was wondering though if this would work w/o the use of his kernel... guess not.
For the sound issue the writer says that if you have problems like you did that all you have to do is stop the app. Did you try that before you reported? Also, other than the battery issues was the kernel stable?
Last thing... did you use the software or hardware accelerator?
Thanks again!
