N73 Game Resolution

[jd_gwapo]

I've installed games on my N73. When i start it, the screen/resolution of the game is only 1/2 of the screen. How can I change that so i can play those games in full screen???

Thanks

Q) How to change the resolution of the Java Games?

Ans) It's very easy to change the resolution of the Java Games.

* You need to know the original resolution of the game. This is usually found on the author’s website.
* you must know the resolution of the target screen for the phone.

1. You should be using WinRAR for this. You can download an evaluation copy of WinRAR from http://www.win-rar.com.
2. Using WinRAR, open the Java file. The Java file has a file extension .jar.
3. There should be a folder called META-INF. Open that folder.
4. Inside that folder, there is a file called MANIFEST.MF. Drag and drop the MANIFEST.MF to your Desktop
5. Open MANIFEST.MF using notepad
6. At the end of the file, add the following two lines to the MANIFEST.MF file.
* Nokia-MIDlet-Original-Display-Size: xxx,xxx
* Nokia-MIDlet-Target-Display-Size: yyy,yyy
7. Now save the file. The drag the file back to the .jar file folder META-INF using WinRAR.
8. Install the JAR file to your phone.

Note:
The xxx,xxx and yyy,yyy are the screen resolution. 'Original' size is the native resolution of the game, and 'target' size is the resolution of your phone. Change these numbers as appropriate... when ur done, drag it back into the "META-INF" folder. overwrite the previous file.

Example:
Nokia-MIDlet-Original-Display-Size: 176,208
Nokia-MIDlet-Target-Display-Size: 352,416

The above shows that the original game resolution is 176x208 and the new target resolution is 352x416 i.e. for N80.

Edit:
oh, and forgot to mention, before changin resolution, search from google your phone model for accurate resolution, for ie, search words:
"screen resolution nokia n73"
and replace it at the end of text, since that is for nokia n80.

yup, now had a time to test it on my own phone, and it works.
Just for the record, my phone is Nokia N76 so my "command line" was
Nokia-MIDlet-Original-Display-Size: 176,208 (old resolution)
Nokia-MIDlet-Target-Display-Size: 240,320 (phone resolution)
