Hi Joe,
I know how to edit Allwinner configuration files, deal with DragonFace or ImgRePacker. I played with Orange Pi boards for a while and I realized following things:
1. Android images seems to ignore changes applied to the fex file, mostly the resolution stays 720p regardless to the settings.
2. Look at the Fex guide: all higher HDMI mode resolutions are 16:9. No way you can choose 16:10
There is a possibility to change some files related to hdmi and display. This allowed to set the 720p60 HDMI mode which in reality made 1280x1024. This hack was applied to linux kernel and i do not know if it will work under Android. Secondly, you have to recompile the kernel and replace the kernel (and modules ?) in your kernel with the compiled one.
If someone figure out how to do this and write an howto I will be more than satisfied to adapt those files to my needs. I was not successful with my Orange Pi yet - the tweaked Android image stuck on boot and I gave up, because there are almost no information how to do that.
