Hi all, We have both tried all the builds on the pandaboard 4430 but we have encountered some problems. It seems like those builds are depending on the screen on how they will behave.
The problem at my side is that the display doesn't want to show something. I have tried all the builds on my Asus computer screen (HDMI 1920x1080) and my Sony Bravia<http://store.sony.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10551&storeId=10151&langId=-1&partNumber=KDL40NX700#features>(HDMI 1920x1080). But every time the screen stayed black. This was all tested with the HDMI port to HDMI in the screen. At Mark, the builds worked on his tv at 720p (also Sony Bravia but older) through HDMI. But when he connected the pandaboard from HDMI to DVI (with an converter) it started in phone mode with a low resolution. We followed the instructions of the links you send to us carefully and we can confirm that Android was running. Could there be a problem with the EDID protocol in combination with our screens? And is there a way to override it when the screen doesn't support the EDID protocol? With kind regards, Mark Kuipers Ion Aalbers On 19 January 2012 14:19, Andy Green <andy.gr...@linaro.org> wrote: > On 01/19/2012 03:37 PM, Somebody in the thread at some point said: > > Thanks for all your responses. > > We will try it as soon as possible :) > > > > So this tells me that the build determines which resolution it has, this > > can not be changed through any setting.
