How do you change the HDMI-output resolution?

According to my TV, the output resolution is 720p. How do I change the output resolution to 1080p?

Since the phone's own native resolution is 720p and with mhl cable You only mirror the screen of Your phone, I think You can't change the output signal.
I guess...
But hey! Good luck! Maybe You'll find something! :good:

Lowering res to 1080p

Hello guys,
is there a way to lower screen res to 1080p by default (for system and everything running)?
Thank you

You can google "wm size" and "wm density", for 1080p you might as well set the dpi to 420. I don't recommend you do this on stock rom though.
If you think this can help you save battery life, it won't.
If you want performance, the gpu is strong enough for most apps that you probably won't notice any different between FHD or QHD. For 3D gaming, HTC's boost+ can lower the game resolution to 1080p.
Indeed, if you change the resolution and density, they can make some apps acting weird.

It doesn't open apps faster, but it can make the UI smoother (transitions/scrolling). This is entirely subjective of course, and then there's the variables of different rom/kernel combinations

Native 4k or 2k in almost every rom

Hey guys after experience alot all xz premium ROMs I am want to share you have to can have 4k or 2k this is my method and my app.
1-install this app for first (no permission at all just root)https://mega.nz/#!HABFwaRZ
2-go to app and set type infos for resolution
3-for 4k set DPI 821 for 2k 560 and press apply if it doesn't apply just close the app and open it again
4-get a app that you can edit your build prop with that and set DPI to what you changed in 3
Reboot and enjoy your phone.
I'm used a AOSP rom who can switch to 4k so easy in extended setting but that's so laggy when switch to 4k best rom for using 4k is turbo rom.
Note:this is not native resolution but DPI is get native with edit in build prop Wich is necessary to haven't black recently and small windows but I found no difference between native resolution and non native resolution,it's look like sony lied to us and our phone haven't a 4k screen because I easily see the display pixels in native 4k Wich created by Sony in AOSP.

It is a 4k panel.. when you download AIDA 64 it shows your native display res is 2160p. ( in a non-rooted sony XZP with no Resolution emulation , running stock 1080p) also i found this guy who removed a sony XZP who confirms its a 4K panel.. ill try to post the link.
also how can you see them pixels. @[email protected] man im a training pilot and i have 20/20 vision and i cant see a pixel . Are you sure your phone was not repair ( refurbished?).

Yeah I'm not say I'm 100 percent sure about that but if it's 4k you never can use it .

you can... whenever you are watching native 4k content. Im alright with this , but it'll be cool to have native 4K unlocked in everything else. Although i doubt the 835 can work smoothly.

its not rare if you ask me.. you can easily get them . ( i agree that you cant expect them same level of clarity and fps compared to original blue-ray disks*)
but then again its waaaaaay better to watch 2160p 10 bit HDR h265 files than watching 1080p 10bit files , yes and its very noticeable
*( you cant archive the same 4K blue-ray disk quality in movies with 4K digital rips unless someone actually crack the security code and rip them lossless)
also if you DM me , ill send you a link to get really good 4K rips of movies for around 2-5GB avg . Fyi you can hardly notice the difference when you are side by side watching the original blue-ray disk on your tv and the digital copy on your phone. ( because i did that test with the original blue-ray -jumanji disk and the ripped copy on my phone )

I'm confused. The title says "Native 4k or 2k" but your note states that this is not native?
This seems exactly the same as using the adb command "wm size", to emulate 4k/2k. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think changing the resolution is on the kernel level. Latest AOSP for XZP contains the extended settings to change resolution yes, but there's still an issue. It isn't fixed yet. -- https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/bug_tracker/issues/94

Everything seems same set width etc 871 I get the screen showing quarter at start and display app shows 4k on visual of dplay doesn't se changed missing anythin?

May be you set them wrong
Width:2160
Height:3840
Dpi:821
Tested lot of time and always worked just some times you need to reopen the app for applying the changes.

Isn't this literally the same thing as using the ADB commands that doesn't require root?

How is rooting your device, which requires a PC btw, and then installing an app to change your wm size and dpi easier and faster than just using the ADB commands?
Doing it through ADB doesn't even take 30 seconds.

Man if you doesn't use your phone rooted why you came here because i cant find such a thing who will work on unrooted devices if you don't want to use this app so don't use it,you don't need pc for root if you are not a noob ok? And you can always use this app to change your resolution to everything you want and you can revert to your stock resolution so easy.

he means if youre already rooted, this app is easier than having to plug your phone to the PC everytime you need to change resolution.

he just missunderstood you or something, but there is actually a way to change resolution using adb without having to root, there is no need for hostile replies its all good bruh keep up the good work
PS: you do need a PC to root the phone XD so just all you people keep it easy on these forums here keep things smooth.
enjoy your day gentlemen

Please, tell me how you root your device without using a PC because that's not possible.

Let me explain about my behavior for you i never use my phone without twrp and i have a lot of rom file in my sd card so then every time i want to flash a new rom just go to recovery whipe everything(of course i backup my data with titanium backup) flash new rom if this rom is carbon just flash magisk for root if it's a customized stock rom it will be prerooted and if that a untouched rom i will flash a appropriate kernel (i also have a lot of kernel in my sdcard) then flash magisk and drm fix depend on kernel (drm fix is differ for janjan kernel).
Thats all.

help needed please

hello guys I don't know what I've done but I only have 720p now when I go on you tube it only shows 720 p it used to show 1080 and 1080 hdr is there any other settings to get it back I don't know what I've done I have it set to fhd+ , I must of touched something I don't want to restore lol I deleted a few Chinese apps that's all I've done . heres pics of settings

so I changed screen resolution to hd+720p and took a screenshot it shows 720p
I then changed it to fhd+1080p took another screenshot and it shows 1080 as in pics , so my device screen is set properly to 1080p but somehow YouTube only posts in 720? I've uninstalled YouTube and it's still the same any ideas anyone ,,I loved to show off my screen on YouTube hd videos? it used to work

it must be YouTube has they been any updates I checked with a resolution checker and it's 1080p FHD+ when set and 720p when set to hd+
is there any other video settings I can check I didn't think I was a noob I usually sort stuff out

so back again lol when I watch my own videos on YouTube they are 1080p when I watch other people's videos it only goes to Max 720? very strange... I've always used same 4k content to show off my screen at 1080 so it's not the vids

Not sure what's the issue but mine can view in 1080p. Maybe it's really the video?

Reduce Resolution Application

Hello Good morning, I would like to take a question please, I have the Galaxy Tab S-T800, do you have any application to reduce its resolution? so that the battery lasts a little longer and what resolution and dpis do you recommend? I try to leave it in 720p or even in 480p, I found some apps more every time I change the resolution it gives an error and the screen is unpropitious, since I thank you for your help and if the topic does not follow the forum rule I'm sorry
Galaxy TAB S-T800 - Lineage 14.1 - Root Magisk

If you're rooted just download Screen shift from Play Store. You can change DPI, resolution even aspect ratio with it.

Thank you very much for your help, would you please tell me which ideal resolution or dpi? or some website that I can calculate the resolution and which ideal DPI? because every time I try to change it doesn’t work.
