Here are some links that may help.
http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xorg_HDTV

What the pages say is that it can be difficult to get the timings
correct and HDMI can be fussy about the ModeLines.
One thing I noticed is:

>>> (--) NVIDIA(0):     SHARP HDMI (DFP-0)
>>> (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): 135.0 MHz maximum pixel clock
>>> (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): Internal Single Link TMDS
>>> (II) NVIDIA(0): Mode Validation Overrides for SHARP HDMI (DFP-0):

which means that nvidia driver thinks that you are connecting to a DFP
(digital flat panel) as opposed to a TV. I'm wondering if a HDTV is a
digital flat panel or a TV. I would guess that a DFP is correct, which
means that the ModeLines will work.

One of the howtos said that when starting X add "-- -logverbose 6" to
that startx command line for more detailed information about why
modlines are not being accepted.
