The problem is not that your monitor is incorrectly detected or that
something is wrong with the EDID. From the logs it clearly sees the
proper resolutions for both your laptop display and your monitor.
The issue is that X is trying to select a resolution in common between
both your laptop and your external monitor, but the highest resolution
they have in common is 1024x768. If you disable your LVDS, then your
external monitor should work properly.
If I've misunderstood your bug report, feel free to reopen but provide
more specific details so it's easier to understand what you're trying to
do, perhaps with a photo of the screens if that would help explain the
problem.
