Is there a way to change the Display output resolution in Android?

I'm not talking about the screen density (DPI). I'm talking about the pixels.

The thing is I own an Acer Iconia A700 FullHD tablet but there is lag, especially on 3D games that forces the native screen resolution of 1920x1200.

So forcing the resolution from 1920x1200 down to 1280x800 would theoretically reduce those lags.

So it works with some games that comes with an option to change the resolution, but most games doesn't have an option, they simply run in 1920x1200 and lag really badly.

Is there a way to change the overall resolution down to 1280x800 ?

I know it MIGHT be possible but there could be a problem because the image has to get upscaled to the native display resolution.

And I don't know if the Tegra 3 comes with an hardware scaler.

So if the resolution gets changed, it might get upscaled and filtered (or not) OR just centered in a smaller image in the middle of the screen.

But either way.. Is it possible? if yes, how?

Thanks in advance.

[Q] Change Smartphone Display Resolution FHD 1080p to 720p via soft?

This is possible?

Currently many smartphones are already FHD, but what if we want to reduce to 720p to improve performance, it is possible via software? something like in windows, or is not possible unless you edit the kernel?

This an interesting topic.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctg867:
My phone broke and the cost of replacing it with a new one before I'm eligible for an upgrade isn't worth it, so my friend loaned me an HTC Droid Eris until then. It's already rooted apparently, and I'm looking to load a pure, unmodified version of 2.3.7 on it (2.3.5+ is fine too). Or as close as I can possibly get to that, anyway.

Normally I wouldn't bother (I don't need to do much with my phone and I'm hardly a power user), but 2.1 is a little (lot) old at this point. I don't want anything fancy and I don't want Cyanogen. Just a stock, Nexus-esque ROM of Gingerbread and the full, completely functional Google App Suite. That last part is a must. If the ROM doesn't come with them (legalities and what not), that's fine, I just need to know how to get them. I know little to nothing about mobile operating systems, so the plainer the language, the better please.

Thanks for any help you can give.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
That may be a little hard if no one has built a pure AOSP ROM for your phone. But what's wrong with CyanogenMod? Since you don't know much about this stuff, maybe you have some misconceptions about it. It's as close to pure Android as you can get, with a whole load of useful features. Android was lacking in a lot of ways till ICS and Jelly Bean. CM really made Gingerbread awesome. Also, for the same reason, CM ROMs are made for a lot of devices rather than AOSP, and most likely yours has a CM ROM for it too.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctg867:
Well it doesn't have to be ripped directly from a Nexus S or anything, but as close to stock as possible. I have a good friend with Cyanogen and I'm just not a fan of the modifications. The UI alterations, the changes to certain operations and functions, the general ability to do some higher level stuff I don't wanna mess with, etc. I'd really just rather have vanilla if it's physically possible.

I don't need anything CM has that GB doesn't already have, so that's why I've opted for vanilla. I already know there's a stable CM 7.2 release for the Eris, which is nice, but I'd really prefer stock. Thank you for your help, though. I appreciate the quick response :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
That's quite understandable. The multitude of options and advanced settings can be overwhelming. Unfortunately you're at a loss for choice with your device. There aren't a lot of recent ROMs for it to begin with, and out of those there's only one AOSP Gingerbread ROM (2.3.5 I think) that I can find. The rest are CM10 and CM7 ports, AOSP 2.1 Eclair and 2.2 Froyo, and some stock ROMs. There might be more, but I didn't bother to look as the threads have been inactive for very long. There's no point in flashing ROMs that have been dead for a long time. This one AOSP GB ROM itself is more than a year old since the last update. You can still try it though, and if everything works fine and it's stable, you're good. Otherwise your only real choice for a stable, fully functional ROM is CM7.2.

Here's the ROM - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1040459

Look here for more ROMs for your phone - http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=554

You should ask this question in your phone's forum rather than the general Android Q&A, as you'll get more appropriate answers from people who are using the phone themselves. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctg867:
I apologize for not posting on the Droid Eris boards. I know I should have, but it's basically dead at this point so I didn't think I'd get much of a response, if any. Thank you for that link. I searched those boards but I was having a hard time finding stock ROMs. Mostly just CM 7 stuff and other modified ROMs. I guess vanilla isn't too popular. *Shrug*
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctg867:
I just flashed that ROM and it's telling me I need to also flash Google Apps as well. While I greatly appreciate all your help, that was the one thing I said I really needed to have. Do you know how I would go about doing that? I'm gonna try and look it up now, but if my search for vanilla 2.3 is any indication I may need some help. Thank you again for everything :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
You can download gapps for any Android version from here - http://goo.im/gapps :)

If you're confused at all, the right gapps for Gingerbread 2.3.5-2.3.7 is here - http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip

You won't need the one with Google Talk video chat add-on as your phone doesn't have a front camera. This package I linked to above is the standard gapps package for CM7 and any Android ROM above 2.3.5. Flash gapps package after flashing the ROM.

The reason for Google apps being packaged separately is that Google didn't want people packaging it with their ROMs. CM initially used to have them packaged till Google asked them to remove their proprietary apps, which include Gmail, Play Store and all the backend apps for syncing data with Google. They weren't okay with them being packaged with ROMs, but they were fine with the apps being packaged as a separate file and flashed after flashing the ROM. Modified HTC Sense stock ROMs come with them included though, because stock includes them.

Read this for more info on gapps - http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps

Also, vanilla AOSP ROMs are very popular now for a lot of devices. They just weren't too popular at the time of Gingerbread other than for Nexus phones. :p
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kristoff125:
No idea how I stumbled upon this but I always wondered why it was cool to just host all the apps. I remembered a C&D from Google to CM regarding the apps, but nothing on why they were so freely available. Thanks.

I have a roadcam in my car that records onto an sd card and I was wondering if there is a way to take out the sd card and connect it to my note 2 maybe using the usb plug so that I could backup the video recordings using an app called dropspace to my dropbox. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
If I understand your question correctly what you're wanting to do is pull the files off the Sd card and upload them with your phone.

If thats what you want to do you could just get a USB OTG cable and a SD card reader that is made to be plugged in to a USB port. That should be all you need to get this working. You can get both of those from Amazon, just dont go with an uber cheap OTG cable. There have been reports, on Amazon and XDA, about some of the cheap OTG cables hard bricking/burning up. Last I checked they didnt know exactly what it did, they said that the devide reacted like the battery had been pulled and the phone, or Nexus 7 and a bunch of other tablets, went off and no matter what they were unable to get it to come back on. The OTG cable I have was about $10 and it works perfectly, theres no reason to pay the exorbitant fee Samsung wants for their official cables seeing how the only difference would be the name on the cable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bill Idol:
Damn, what kind of cable did get because I ordered one of the .80 cent ones and now I'm afraid to use it. Maybe I'll use it on one of my old phones to test it.

[Galaxy Camera General] robb13:
So I finally decided to flash firmware 4.1.2 on my G.Cam (AT&T). I downloaded the firmware from SamMobile and started flashing through ODIN but it got stuck on Modem.Bin and failed. I tried several other firmware and all of them failed on Modem.bin

When I tried to turn on my camera a screen with "Error on Upgrading, try Recovery with Kies" came out. I must admit I panicked so I searched all the forums here on XDA and the same thing happen to somebody on their Galaxy Tab 10.1 The solution for them and for me was to root through Odin.

Like magic, it worked. I flashed through odin the CF-Auto-Root Adam have us on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1995245

And after that my camera boot once again and now I have Android 4.1.2 :D

I'm happy everything turned out ok, so I that's way I'm sharing this so that other users that have the same problem as me can know what to do (this should be a sticky).

Happy Flashing.

I was able to succesfully root to Clockwork Recovery so i though flashing another firmware to turn the Note into a European one instead of Chinese would be easy too. WRONG!!

Every time i want to flash with Odin it fails in the beginning of the process, see below:

You need to be posting this in the Galaxy Note 10.1 N80xx Q&A forum. This one is for the Galaxy camera!

However, make sure you don't have Kies running. I turn it off completely using Microsoft's autoruns program. Good luck.
[Galaxy Camera General] davaze:
Hi i already moved this topic to the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A section.

However i just installed the USB drivers only, never used KIES on my pc before at all so this should not be the reason.

I tried two different Firmwares already both flash in a different sequence but both fail at modem.bin. I have no idea why.

Please if anyone has some idea please comment on this topic under the Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A section of this forum, i moved this to there.

Thanks a lot.

I am trying to root my Samsung note 10+ and here is the whole process:

I used SamFirm (v0.5.0) to download firmware (Model SM-N975F, region: SIN, auto), extract it.

Then I used Magish manager to patch AP... file from extracted folder, then copy it back to the extract folder on the computer.

Then use Odin (tried both v3.13.3 and v3.14.1, same results) to flash the files to the phone.

(I following this tut: https://www.thecustomdroid.com/root-samsung-galaxy-note-10-plus-magisk/)

However when I tried for note 10+ I got this issue.

If I load AP file by the original AP file from extracted folder above, then I can flash it to PASS! and recover the phone to fresh state.

The strange thing is I have done similar process and success for my note 10.

Is there anything else I can try here ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danntan:
Hi, I've looked at the other threads but I can't find any definite answers among them (either lacking or requiring additional equipment).

Anyway, my first question is how do I share my laptop's wifi connection (connected to my school's wifi, but they limit access to 1 MAC ID per student) to my S2, through USB? Like, is there an app/program/setting I can just use upon hooking up my S2 to my laptop and it can share its Internet connection to my phone?

Second question is how to work it the other way around, like if I have the wifi connection restricted to my S2 only, and share its internet connection to my laptop (and if it's possible wirelessly, to my iPod touch as well).

Thank you for any help. Cheers :good:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Don't think you can via USB, phone doesn't have those capabilities. I guess you'd have to do it via WiFi. I imagine you'd setup some kind of 'server'/whatever software on the laptop similar to how you setup an SSH tunnel/relay (which involves your phone connecting to a host machine remotely which uses a secure connection to use the internet rather than accessing it normally via your carrier).

There's probably threads on here which would have the info you're after, but don't use XDA search; do a Google search & append XDA to your search terms. Gets better results in my experience. Also a straight out Google search should yield the info you want (it's not going to be easy tho; expect to do a lot of reading/fiddling).

Re: using the phone as a WiFi hotspot for the laptop, again, many many threads on here/Google search about setting up same. Re: doing anything with the iPod touch, you should know you're in the wrong place for that.

I guess I'd do the latter one (Google -> +xda). Thanks. And I guess you misinterpreted what I said about the iPod, I meant if it's possible to connect to the phone's hotspot if it's connected to wifi (using an iPod, laptop, etc.), but thanks really.

I see. I think I'll decide on rooting my S2 then in a few weeks. I heard the JB update's around the corner and I might just wait for that.

Hey guys, just a piece of info, hopefully this will save somebody a serious headache.

Always always always charge the battery. I know it says that everywhere but apparently they weren't kidding.

I tried to flash my E4GT using odin and it ended up failing halfway through a few months ago. When it would not connect over usb after that I thought I had seriously screwed something up and it sat for a few months. I even bought a jtag programmer, got my dad to help me solder to the jtag port and reflashed the bootloader. But in the end it turns out that all along it was a dead battery. Charged it up because I was about to sell it for parts and I wanted to show the error screen. Tried to root it again and now it's as happy as can be.

Anyway, just figured I'd share. like I said, hopefully somebody else will benefit from my dumb mistake.
