Can someone make kernel or tell me how to do this, maybe thru some kind of converter or something like that?
1080p/24Hz is chopy for games so maybe this can be done by software or hardware fix??
There is similar kernel but for One S so I belive this can be done for note 2.
Pls help this is realy big issue for mhl/tv output and i didnt find any solution on web how to make this happen on note 2.
I'm to having same issue.
Choppy with the dock. My GNex works so smoothly compared and it's half the phone although it is rooted.
I'd be very excited to known if a custom kernel can fix this. I've posted something similar already in this thread.
Cheers guys.

I hope for the fix to, it a shame that this isnt implemented like and option in stock software. One again please devs or anybody help us with this problem :crying:
Going to try to fix this thru vga pc because in my tv manual says I can select resolution myself thru this input (RGB PC only).
Maybe you too can do something with this.
Well i cant post links so this is what I will test with my Note2:
RED Galaxy S3 SIII i9300 i9308 MHL Micro USB 11pin to HDTV HDMI
HDMI Female to Female F/F Coupler Extender Adapter Connector
Gold HDTV HDMI to VGA HD15 3 RCA Adapter Cable 5ft
When tested will report here... still hoping for kernel modification of some kind...
I have a N7100 and a smart dock this has been my experience:
HDMI -> DVI adapter plugged into a Dell U2312HM via DVI (HDCP compliant):
- Stuck at 720x480 resolution no matter what.
- When mouse and external display is connected there is a drop in frame rate. However, if the mouse OR the external display are connected seperately the FPS remains high.
HDMI cable to my 26" Westinghouse 1080P TV (HDCP compliant but constantly has handshaking issues):
- Appears to display at 1080p or at least scaled up 720p though I set my TV in 1:1 and there are no black bars so I suspect 1080p.
- When mouse and external display is connected there is a drop in frame rate. However, if the mouse OR the external display are connected seperately the FPS remains high.
It seems that there is a bug in the code that has to do with when the phone enters that "desktop mode." There also seems to be a bug when using an adapter for some reason as well. The N7100 seems to act completely differently than my PS3. My PS3 connects wonderfully using the same adapter and the same Dell monitor, no handshaking issues. Though my PS3 to get sound out of the TV's speakers I have to mute and then unmute the TV to get sound anytime the HDMI link is closed and then reopened (starting a game for example). While it seems the N7100 behaves oppositely.
Update on my Gold HDTV HDMI to VGA HD15 3 RCA Adapter Cable 5ft combination is not working the device dont check connection thru hdmi rgb input (no signal or notification of connection). So I belive only hdmi input/output works with note 2. Once again pls help us regarding this option to lock device on 720p output thru hdmi.
man i really need this force 720p playback option as well...
Hi everyone, I bought today a 11pin usb to hdmi which work perfectly (still the bothering screen mirroring but I guess I have to deal with that) my question is if there's a way to change the resolution or something ? Most games I tried was kinda slower and out of sync and also with some strange vsync problems (image cut). Just wonder if there's a program or a script to enable lower resolution to make the work smoother or maybe a soft to put ALL the display to the Hdmi to avoid the mirroring ????
Thanks !
Hello,
Today I got my Samsung Smart Dock which is working as supposed with my Note 3. My issue is that in a TV, it will display correctly at the TV native resolution, but in my monitor (I-INC iP221) it will display as 640x480 60Hz. The monitor is capable of displaying at 1080p since I use it with my PC. I would like to know if there is a way I can force 1080p to the monitor. I would like to use my Note 3 as a Desktop Replacement for office things, web browsing and media playback.
I have tried several HDMI to DVI adapters I have and I also used an HDMI to DVI cable I also own and it still displays at 640x480 resolution...
My Note 3 is stock ROM and is rooted.
Thanks for all the help you guys can offer.
I already tried using the command
echo U:1920x1080p-2 > /sys/class/graphics/fb1/mode
the modes file shows:
U:640x480p-0
U:1920x1080p-2
but the 1920x1080p-2 mode only keeps the screen black until I disconnect and connect the monitor again where it defaults to 640x480 mode
Hello I have the same issue with galaxy s3 and s4 when i connect to my hdtv directly to hdmi I get 1080P. But when I use my hdmi to dvi adapter I only get 480p. Have you found a solution?
Hello,
I recently bought a Slimport to HDMI cable and an HDMI to VGA converter from Amazon hoping to be able to use it on any monitor available at home and office. Slimport HDMI obviously work out of the box however using the HDMI to VGA converter didn't. Finally after I almost exhausted my googliness, I was able to make it work by simply connecting the Slimport to an external power. But there's still a remaining problem, it always outputs 1080p and therefore I can't use it on old monitors that only supports 720p. I tried several resolution changer apps but it only changes the resolution of the screen but not what is outputted on the monitor. Does anyone here know if it's possible or the apps I tried doesn't work as what it should on my Nexus 7?
I've tried it on multiple monitors already but the output is still 1920x1080. The displayed picture is the only thing that changes.
Hi guys! Ofesad here from Argentina.
First a litte history: I had a Sony XBR55X805E (android tv) until january. Was killed by a electric surge.
Since then I dont have a TV.
So, yesterday I got a TCL 55" C715 QLED. Picture looks nice, however I have been finding problems all around that I cant seem to find a solution.
First, the most important one: NO AUDIO on ARC.
I have a Yamaha RXV-673 (Dolby+ and DTS, no Atmos). The TV "sees" it as an input device. I can see the receiver menus when I select the HDMI 1 on the tv.
I have try'd changing a lot of things and never saw it as a output device. Even changed the hdmi cable and port (in case of mislabeling), no change.
Of course I tested the receiver with another source and it works perfectly, as it always did with the Sony.
Second, the HDMI-CEC doesnt seem to work.
I plugged my PS4 in HDMI2. Enabled HDMI CEC support. Same on the TV.
Turned everything off.
Turned PS4 On using it's joystick. TV stays off.
------
Also tryd turning everything off. Turning TV on. Select Input HDMI2 and the PS4 doesnt turn on.
Both devices used to work PERFECTLY my Sony with the features mentioned.
So, I ask on any advice on this matter.
The new TV seems nice enough but with all this issues it feels quite... "incomplete". Like a "demo" version.
I dont know what to think.
I am really considering returning it unless I can find the solution to this problems.
Thank you for reading and your advices.
Ofesad.
Same problem on tcl 55c735 and apple tv 4k . Cec don’t turn on tv but turn off . Same problem with 50c735 too. Tv bought in France. Try reinstalling on the 50c735 adviced by TCL and do nothing. Worked with my old Samsung TV. I tried other input and and another hdmi cable and don’t work
This is the recommended power up sequence to reduce and solve any handshake issues...
1. Power-off all equipment (At the wall socket).
2. Ensure all Cables, Splitters, Switches, Extenders are connected within the HDMI Distribution Network.
3. Power on all Splitters, Switches, Extenders within HDMI Distribution Network.
4. Power on all displays and set to HDMI input from HDMI Distribution Network (Source device need to be able to contact display to retrieve EDID information)
5. Power on Sources / Players. Ensure that a path is open from source to display for HDCP handshake negotiation by selecting the proper input on HDMI Switches or HDMI switch/splitter combo’s via the remote control (Sources negotiates HDCP Handshake via HDMI Network to displays which is set to HDMI input to respond to handshake).
Some displays will negotiate HDCP handshake / timing better if the source are already powered on and you may need to change points 3,4,5 above to 4,3,5 or 4,5,3 depending on your equipment.
