Hi.
Yes, i have, I9300, i bought multimedia stand for note II and it works like charm. One small problem. Screen resolution of my monitor is 1200x1600, and what resolution S3 has - you know. Is there any way or program that will change screen resolution after connection S3 with monitor to the 1200x1600? It looks not good when S3 give me his native resolution, all blurry and crappy view on the monitor.
Stand has 3x USB, 1xHDMI, 1x3.5jack, and place to connect charger that has 5V 2A. For curious ones i have bought that device here that is Polish shop but pictures you can see there.
Anybody know is there any way to make that phone use 1200x1600 screen resolution after connection to that base?
Oh, one more question, that base make phone to use landscape mode, but when i use skype, or camera, it works in normal mode, and screen is blinking till my camera is running. When i turn my camera off - phone is using FULL SCREEN MODE!! The same situation is in youtube app and when i am watching movies. It uses screen resolution that my monitor has.
Anybody can help me with that?
Nope, there's nothing you can do with hdmi resolution -plenty of similar posts but none I've read found a solution. Can't make any sense of your second question.
Oh, sorry, it`s hard to me to translate that straight from polish ok i try again: Camera. For example: When my cellphone is connected to that base, and i`m using skype, when i turn on my front or back camera, person who i talking to view me on side, like 90 degrees to left. Cellphone is forced to use landscape mode on that base and only camera is working normally (neutron music player too ;P )
Another fact that normal screen is not on full screen, on top and bottom there is black stripe - i understand why. And skype, youtube or other movies is using fullscreen mode.
Other soft for s3 supporting that connection to base?

Right now, when you connect the Galaxy S III to a TV, it'll display the video in whatever orientation the S3 is currently in. For example, when you hold the phone vertically, it shows up as portrait on the TV (with black spaces on either side), and when the phone is held horizontally, the TV displays landscape video.
Since I have a screen that can rotate, I want to make it so that the video that the Galaxy S III displays will always fill the screen. As in, when the S3 is held vertically, the video it displays fills the whole screen without the black spaces (if you were watching it on a TV, it would appear sideways).
Is this possible? I know that on the iPhone there's an app on Cydia called Landscape TV Out, which always outputs the video in landscape (thus filling the screen). That's what I'm looking for.
If an app is possible but it doesn't exist, I'm willing to pay for one to be made.
To clarify, I've attached two pictures that show what the S3 outputs by default and what I need it to look like in portrait.
I've searched through the GT-i9300 and SGH-i747 source code, but I haven't found anything (maybe I'm not looking for the right thing?)
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I've been searcing Play Store for an app that use motion detection by the front camera to wake up the screen on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 when someone enters the room, or is walking near the device. The Camera Trigger (Motion detect) app is one that looked promising, but unfortunately there is no trigger for activating the screen. I also looked at Tasker but there is as far as I can see currently no event available to use motion detected by camera to activate the screen.
The reason I would like this is because the Tab is used by my family to display the Google agenda/calendar for all family members and their activities. Instead of having to turn on the device it would be a cool hi-tech feature to automatically turn on the screen when someone walks in the room. I understand that using the camera for such a purpose would make the battery drain quicker, but that's ok as the Tab is alway in it's docking station with a power adapter. Also I'm not using the lock screen/there is no security as this is a Tablet used by the family.
Anyone?
Thx n brgds ToonWolf
I want the exact thing
Hi there,
I just wanted to say that i actually want the exact thing:
An app that turns on the screen, when motion is detected by the front facing camera
and turns it off again, if there hadn't been motion for a couple of seconds...
Have you found a solution / an app that can do that?
or anyone else here ?
I'm surprised / sad that it looks like there isn't an app for that...
Me too.
I am using a Gbox to display my security cams on a tv mounted up in the corner of the kitchen. Right now I have we turn on the TV with a remote when walking into the room, but it would be extremely sexy if it the screen woke when it detected motion and went to sleep after 10 mins or so.
I've been using the samsung MHL adapter to plug my Note 2 and S3 into my monitor, but for some reason when im just on the homescreen in landscape, screen is cropped just a little bit on all sides. the status bar is maybe 75% cut off and the other sides are about the same. I have no idea what adjustments can be made on the monitor to get it working perfectly. also, the monitor says its in 1080i mode and the colors a little washed out. I dont know if this is due to it being piped through MHL or if i can also fix that but any help would be much appreciated.
for the record, I am connected to the monitor now and using a bluetooth keyboard and mouse to type this all out. the Note to has become my new computer and it's working perfectly.
I don't mean to bump this post for no reason, but I've been looking all over the Internet and still can't find anything that solves the issue. I was hoping there was a setting somewhere on my monitor that would change the display resolution, but so far I haven't found anything that actually changes that anywhere on the monitor.

Okay, for the people who have crop issues. Have you tweaked the display in the settings of your computer monitors and/or TVs? If you go to your display settings for your monitor and/or TV, look to see what the screen mode it's on. Your problem could be that the picture on the display is zoomed in and not set to natural. If that's the case, the different screen mode will show everything that's being inputted to the display.
EDIT: If for some reason your monitor doesn't have this setting (Mine does), then if you haven't already, try experimenting by changing the resolution of the display.

I've been looking all over in the settings for my monitor and still haven't been able to find the settings to change the resolutions. I'll keep looking.

Having an unusual problem with outputting my AT&T Galaxy S2 (stock rom) over MHL to my television. Most stuff looks fine and is properly mirrored, but a couple of video streaming apps I use have an odd aspect ratio problem. Instead of mirroring exactly what's on my phone's screen, which looks fine, the video on my TV is forced to 4:3. (Not a big Netflix user, so this isn't one of the problem apps.) My TV doesn't have very many aspect ratio options, so the only change I can make there actually doubles the size of the black pillars. Is there anyway to fix this? Another thing I've noticed is that when it's outputting this way, the notification bar is still visible on my phone's screen, but it disappears on the TV.
