[SOLVED] Android things + Raspberry Pi Not Full Screen

Hi friends,
If you are using a screen with Raspberry Pi and not getting the full screen to work, then you need to change the default resolution mentioned in Android Thing’s config.txt file.

I am using this screen here:

To fix this, check on the back of the screen for the resolution.

My screen has 800x480 resolution mentioned.

Shutdown your Pi, remove memory card, put it into a card reader and plug it in your computer. Open /boot/config.txt in a text editor. Add the following lines in it and save it.

1 2 3 4 5

max_usb_current=1 hdmi_group=2 hdmi_mode=1 hdmi_mode=87 hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0

Edit last line hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0 according to your screen’s resolution.

Eject memory card, put it in Pi’s memory card slot and power Pi. Your screen should now be full screen.

Thanks.
