MHL to VGA adapter question - Galaxy S II Accessories

Hi guys,
I have some question for MHL specialists please.
I'd like to connect SG S2 to my car's (Acura MDX 09) navigation screen using MHL USB to VGA adapter (like this one http://www.amazon.com/iKross-micro-...ectronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1326098625&sr=1-2-fkmr0).
As far as I know, my car's native Screen resolution is 800x480, 15hz, RGB+S. The question is - will this setup work ? Is it possible to adjust output resolution and refresh rate on S2 so that it will output correct image to my navigation screen ?
Thanks in advance.

you can't change refresh rate or resolution on the phone, but the screen in your dash can most likely scale it.

Did anybody tested this? Is it working but not asking for HDMI (this should work), asking for VGA output..
thanks for answer..

[Q] Set resolution on Smart Dock ?

Does anyone know if it's possible to change the resolution the note 2 Smart dock outputs over the HDMI port?
My 1680x1050 (native) monitor is being driven at 720x480 by the dock which seems unusually low to me.
The monitor isn't capable of 1080 but surely there is a step between 480 and 1080????
Update: I've now got a Dell P2311H monitor which is 1920x1080 native and I STILL can not get anything more than 480p out of the smart dock
Probably best asking here:

we reaaly need a programmer to make a tweak to choose output resolution..

Some HDTVs have 720p resolution. It might have something to do with it, thats why your phone outputs 720p instead of 1080p. I set mine on 1080p and its working fine.
Cheers.

Well on Xperia P you must go in the service menu and enable the 1080p output

Hi,
I have sony ION with ICS-404
Stock Firmwares
Build ↓ OS Version ↓ Region ↓ Model ↓
6.1.E.1.20 4.0.4 International LT28h Generic
My AOC TV support FULL HD ie 1920x1080 Resolution. My sony laptop and [Iberry AUX01 Tablet(Cheaper Tablet ie INR 6000/-)] support FULL HD and working fine with AOC TV.
So I wonder why not my ION should Support FULL HD tv out ie 1920x1080 resolution. Currently I am using Sony Xperia Ion micro-HDMI to HDMI Port Saver Adapter (Type D to Type A).
Shall I need other firmware or HDMI setting, plz let me know !!!
Let it at 1280*720 p
Because if you set it at fullhd(1080) , the phone will only do an upscaling , but the quality will be the same of 1280*720p because phone render all at HD(720p) resolution
Anyway if you want try type *#*#7378523#*#* in dialer , next go to service test and after that go to the tv-out test . Here there are also settings for tv-out

Hi,
Right !
SONY ION phone render all at HD(720p) resolution ONLY, ie HDMI out Mirroring.
But I am seeking Actual 1920x1080 p resolution. Not just phone mode cloning.
Like PC/laptop HDMI out , while connect to Second monitor It uses FULL HD.
Does Sony ION HDMI out use TV/monitor as Second output ?
Anybody using a ION Phone as a live view, external monitor for video?
ie DUAL display Mode ?

MHL Force Resolution?

Does anyone know of a trick or method to change or force a given resolution for the display output via MHL?
I ask this because it appears to default to the highest resolution available on a given monitor, but 1080p is gimped at 30Hz, which is extremely bad. If I can force the adapter to display at 720p 60Hz at all time then that would be awesome!

Fix the MHL TV out resolution

I originally have a Note 8.0 but also use a friend's note 2 sometimes for giving video out to a Projector. So, I use an MHL to VGA Converter and a 5pin to 11 pin adapter.
The problem is that both the devices randomly pick a resolution everytime I connect it to the projector. Sometimes 720p, sometimes 4:3 VGA. I just want to fix on a resolution. VGA only rarely comes up, but I actually want it because the projector is natively 4:3 and fills up the screen better with it.
Is there anyway I can select the VGA resolution permanently? Like selecting a resolution in Windows?
I found a libhdmi.so file on the Note 8.0 which contains all the info. About resolution, it has everything from 640x480 to 1080p modes. Is there anyway, I could modify it to get the same resolution all the time?

[Q] slimport to hdmi / custom screen resolution woes.

I've recently bought myself a slimport adapter so I can hook my g pad up to a TV (1920x1080).
The g pad appears to downscale its native resolution of 1920x1200 to the resolution it outputs over hdmi (in my case, I'm outputting 1920x1080).
As I'm displaying movies on my g pad's screen @ 1:1 aspect ratio, this downscaling from 16:10 to 16:9 obviously leads to distortion.
To remedy this, I'm using "wm size $resolution" to change the g pad's resolution to 1080x1920.
The problem I'm having is that the window manager is doing some stupid stuff with the virtual softkeys in landscape mode at this custom resolution.
See screenshot here:
@ default 1920x1200
@ 1920x1080
Does anyone know of a solution to this problem?
How do people successfully use the g pad's slimport to hdmi functionality when the TV is a different aspect ratio to the device?
I'm still stuck on this; is this a flaw with the stock rom for which there's no known solution?

You have to change dpi settings too. Can see instructions here or use Resolution Changer Pro from Play Store.
