Is there anyway to rotate the dock's HDMI output? I'm trying to play a game, Game Dev Story, that forces to portrait mode when launched and does not rotate on the tablet.
Does anyone know if an App has been made to adjust screen settings when the phone is hooked up to a television with an MHL Adapter?
What i need is something to disable phone screen while plugged in to the tv, and a way to lock the screen to landscape orientation.
Please advice if you are aware of an app with the specified functions.
I´m also interessted in this... also which files are related to the output settings, since ALL my videos stutters via MHL, ..... refreshrate is always at 30 Hz (1080p)
make a request to the voodoo colour devs to add this maybe?
When my hdmi displays on the television, it doesnt seem to fit correctly. The vertical and horizontal lengths are off and it is also not centered. I've aligned the tv options to try to fit it as best as possible but there are not any android actions i can use to help. Any suggestions???
Is it possible that my cables just sucks?
The prime just chops off the notification/system bar. You may want to check the hdmi scan info in your tv hdmi options - it could be set as overscan which can cause the issue. Set it to auto or underscan.
I have a galaxy nexus, and just bought the mhl hdmi adaptor, i've managed to lock the phone on is portrait mode but this rotated the image filling the whole screen. Basically requiring me to turn my head to see properly. Is there any way to rotate the image vertically and have black pillars on the side?
I need this for a presentation of a portrait application.
hello everyone,
I'm having a problem with the rotation of my android device and I was hoping if anyone could help me with this.
to give some backstory, I'm trying to create a magic mirror using a MK809 III B Quad-Core android stick, which uses android 4.4.2
the stick is used with a computer monitor (Samsung Syncmaster 205BW), but the monitor will be used vertically. (I'm using a HDMI>DVI-D adapter to connect the two)
because of this, I need to have the screen rotated 90 degrees in portrait mode, and android does allow you to change the rotation of the screen, but it doesn't do it well.
normally the rotation is set to landscape, but you've the option of setting the rotation of the screen, but if I set the rotation to 90 degrees, rather than actually rotating the screen with 90 degrees, it rather pushes a vertical screen in landscape mode, thus cutting off half of the screen.
so far I've tried apps such as Ultimate Rotation Control, but those do not actually rotate the screen, rather they just lock the rotation.
my question now is if anyone can help me with this problem, or tell me if it's even possible to do the thing I'm trying to do.
Any Luck?
I'm having the exact same problem with APQ8084 SOM running android 5.0.2 outputting to HDMI monitor (no accelerometer).
You would think this would be an easy problem to solve.
If I put my Winodws 10 Monitor in portrait mode, it correctly rotates screen 90 degrees end of story.
As Yusunoha mentioned, changing the user rotation in Android (via several methods):
1. using the "settings put system user_rotation 0/1/2/3"
2. modifying PhoneWindowManager.java to always return preferred rotation as "portrait"
3. Setting "persist.panel.orientation=90/270"
Does NOT result in screen rotating 90 degrees.
Instead I get a compressed portrait mode stuck inside my landscape orientation.
It's almost as if the accelerometer (which I don't have) is telling the OS to always orient towards it's perceived gravity.
Any tips rotating the entire Android Display experience (not on a per APK basis) would be wonderful.
Anyone have any ideas?

Found any solution? Even with my rooted device and these settings it won't work. Also using usb c > hdmi > vga.
