Lenovo Thinkpad T410 audio through displayport

Getting audio to pass through to TV when using displayport to HDMI cable

DisplayPort is actually capable of tranmitting audio and video. However some manufacturers or OEMs do not implement the audio pass through, luckily Lenovo has implemented this correctly in their Thinkpad T410.

Follow the step to get your laptop audio to TV.

1. Start playing the video.
2. When video is playing, go to Control Panel -->Sounds-->Playback tab
3. You'll see a list of audio playback devices and TV (or amplifier if you are using one) should be one of the options. 
4. Just choose TV and set it as the default audio device 
5. The audio will be passed automatically to the TV from now on.

Solution - LG G2 stuck in TWRP recovery and does not boot to Android

If you get stuck in TWRP with no hope of booting to OS, here is the solution. Usually in these cases, any hardware button combinations will take take you to TWRP (and not to bootloader etc.)

This normally happens when you are trying to install an OS update from LG and your phone has custom recovery like TWRP installed.

Looks like you need to rebuild the boot system.

At TWRP recovery, go to advanced, select TWRP terminal command and press select (you do not have to select any file)

Type

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota

(Remember - no space between sdcc.  and 1) hit Enter and wait for the command to execute

type

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/misc

then hit enter and wait for the command to execute.

Reboot. Hope fully your phone will boot to Android OS. If not go ahead and install your favorite ROM. My favorite is CloudyG2.

This has worked for LG G2 D803 version and hopefully will work on other versions.
