[APP/FEATURE REQUEST] HDMI rotation settings.... - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

GN running ICS 4.0.2 seem to default into landscape mode when you plug in an HDMI cable and just sort of "sticks" there with no option to change it...

This means that portrait mode apps appear sideways on the TV like so:
Not sure if this is only a GN issue, or an ICS issue, but I would love a fix for it... I demo apps and things on my device and its annoying to have to have a 90 degree swiveling HDMI computer monitor handy...

does anyone know if this is even possible?

how did you fix the overscan on the hdmi out from 1 picture to the next? Is it a setting on the tv, or the phone? I tried it on 2 tvs in my house and both look similar to the first picture. Not a dealbreaker, but a little annoying.

Yea, on my samsung it's called Just Scan. It cleans it right up.

Anyone have any insights into this whatsoever? There are no settings for MHL HDMI at all....

What kind of cable
Hello,
What kind of cable are you using exactly? is there any picture or link to buy one online?
Thank you
Same question.
where can we buy this cable?
It's a Nokia N95-96-97 video out cable (CA-75U), I bought one for £1.94 delivered off eBay.
Bear in mind it's composite (not Component), so the picture quality up close is pretty bad, and there's some noticable lag, so using it for gaming isn't ideal.
CA-75U cables
Ok, I think I can find that kind of cable, but they are pretty expensive new around 33 Frs

Just received my component cable, will be giving this a go tonite a very nice feature to have!!
I'm getting tearing when things move around alot on the screen, watching videos is very annoying because of this. Other than that, I have nothing to complain about. I talked to Samsung about it last week and they got the same problem with their handset/TV, so they sent the issue to the techs. Hopefully it can be resolved by a firmware update.
couldnt get a picture, i could faintly hear the movie i had playing, but picture was too fuzzy. Maybe the cable I got was bad quality, will have a go with the nokia cable.

[Q] Sense 2.1 or 3.0 features for Incredible GB framework?

Is this possible? I have the TV Out cable and (as far as I know) it only works with Incredible framework, but as we all know stock is extremely boring, so is there any way to get Sense 3 or even 2/2.1 features ported over to the leaked GB build, and (in case) do any of the Sense 2> ROMs have the TV Out in Settings> Display?
Sorry for the long Question and my "noobiness", any answer is appreciated

I only ask because the two are related
You can't sync a Wii remote on anything besides AOSP ROMs, but you can't use TV-Out on anything but stock. Which means, you can't play video games with game controllers on a TV with your friends even though the hardware supports both actions.

FIGURED IT OUT!!!!
It was driving me CRAZY!!!
So is what causes this problems is the dock mode being stuck. When you dock your phone the dock connection completes a specific circuit in the phones USB port that will tell the phone it's in dock mode. This can get stuck when you accidentally push the wall charger into the phone UPSIDE DOWN (Which I did and then got the problem) bending that pin down completing the circuit permanently.
THE FIX:
Take something sharp and/or thin like a knife and push the pin up ever so slightly. DO NOT FORCE it as you will break the pin clean off. Once you disconnect the circuit, you'll see your phone turn it's screen on. That means you did it!
Good luck! And your welcome!

I was able to unmount the Samsung SGSII Cardock!!
As we can see, there is a resistor that enables the Cardock mode. Also, there is no connection of line 3 (D+) and 2 (D-) to usb female plug.
Now I have to read more the "Fun with resistors" thread to know if it is possible to mod the dock.
Does anyone know if it is possible to work like this?
The on/off key will be used to enable/disable the cardock mode. The yellow lines describes the new wires that i have to solder.
I decided to remove the smd board and plug a cable direct to the base. It's not the best solution bas it resolves my main issue (no USB data).

back camera rear view trajectory fix

Hi all.
changed the back view ruler to one that i fit my car size and the location of the camera (attached a picture).
now i want to change the size of the trajectory lines that are small and not by the size of my car. They are wrong but do move when i move the steering wheel.
it looks like some one did it http://4pda.ru/forum/lofiversion/index.php?t557670-14640.html but i cant understand a thing.
is it posible? if so, how?

I don't have an answer for you, but I'm very curious to know how did you get the moving rulers when steering!
in extra settings you can check V on trajectory ruler or some thing like that its a builed in function
I've got only an option to activate the ruler, but it's fixed.
And anyway I can't use it because my camera puts it's own rulers on the image...

I had this issue, you need to replace the bg_distance.png file in the MTCBackView.apk file MTCBackView.apk\res\drawable-nodpi-v4\
Sorry, i misunderstood, wow, would be cool to have the lines move, looking at the 4pda site it seems to be a feature from the canbus for VAG vehicles?

Yes, for proper working it needs to know the rotation angle of the steering wheel, and maybe it can get it from canbus on certain veichles. I've seen that there are universal models too (you can search "dynamic trajectory rear view camera" on aliexpress) that use a gyroscope built in the camera itself to guess if you are turning and how much, but I don't think they can work very well...
