I just tried to use my GS2 with HDMI connection on sony FHD TV, however, both in portrait and landscape, image is cut, both top and bottom. Quite annoying especially for watching movie (subtitles cut..) how can i fix that?

It's just the settings on your TV.

You will need to choose a different aspect ratio on your TV settings :)

I don't use Sony but there will be a settings for aspect ratio somewhere. Take your time and look for it.

There are many options on Samsung; full screen, crop, 16:9, 16:10, zoom etc

If you have had a thorough look through the image settings then it may just have it's own dedicated button on your remote.

I have a Panasonic Viera and I have a button on my remote which is called "16:9". This is the only way I can change aspect ratio.

Look on your TV or your remote for a dedicated aspect ratio button sometimes it's a square with an arrow in it. Obviously it's differnet for different models.

Either look in your manual, or google it.

Your TV will definitely have a way to change aspect ratio, you just have to find it.
