Is there a way to run Universal in QVGA? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi,
I have some applications which don't play well in VGA. Is it at all possible to change screen resolution on the Universal (just like a PC) so it works in QVGA? I would only need this temporarily. If there is a utility that lets you do this then that might be an answer for me as well.
Thanks a lot for your help. Regards

thanks for quick answer... it was a big help...
But do remember that Full VGA mode is a hack, unsupported. Apps may work, they may not. Most do work fine.

thanks vijay555, but I don't understand what you mean... what do you mean with full vga is a hack... by the way, I have bought it : ) it is a very nice toy with a fantastic display... and it is so quick as my BA....
v is refering (can't spell it - damn dyslexia) to a hack that is avaliable that makes the screen size 4 x bigger, this is quite nice for fitting more information ont he screen but remember everything is 4x smaller and hard to read. also resco explorere doesnt work with the hack (takes up 1/4 of the screen). tomtom has no problem.

screen/resolution problem with igo

Hi there,
I have iGO 6 installed on my Athena and it works fine with lower resolutions. However when I change resolution to 128dpi or higher with RealVGA software, it doesn't work properly. The screen goes crazy (buttons relocated, non responding half screen etc). Does anyone know why and can you suggest any solutions?
thanx in advance

try searching! Eaglesteve has sorted this.
OK - so you can't actually find using search - nor can I.

Resolution Change in WM/Snapvue

Hi,
so far I was not brave enough to change the resolutin in WM/Snapvue.
Those who did and have some experience.
What is preferrable? 96 or 128 dpi?
Are there programmes it doesn't work with? Is that different with 96 or 128 dpi?
Do you know if it works with SPB's "Diary" and "Pocket Plus"?
And here the most important question, is it possible to reverse it all without a hard reset?
This is my idea.
I make a backup with SPB's backup, before I change the resolution to reverse it, if I do not like it.
Can the backup work? Experts? Or is there any reason why it can't work?
Thanks!
S.
yes, realvga can put you back to the default 192dpi so no hard reset needed.
Thanks,
so one important question is answered. Does it mean that RealVGA is a program in which you can chose different dpis?
Maybe someone can answer some of the other question, I would be very grateful, especially if it works with none English versions.

with real VGA, you have to be careful with non english version ... but I think that having the /windows/startup/ folder (filled with the same content that the one in "your" language) is enough.

yes
worst case you hard reset lol
but i've never had a problem with it.
Hi Cmonex or thanks to aynone who can help,
I have installed 128 dpi, but spb plus doesn't work and SPB Diary doesn't change the resolution. If SPB pocket plus works, then I do not know how to make it work.
So my question. How can I get rid of all the files that were installed for 128 dpi. Are they all the files that are in Respack128.cab? Are they only in the windows folder? Any other files in a different folder? Can anything go wrong when I delete them one by one? What about the registry? Are there entries to delete? Please, some tips are very, very welcome. Thanks!!!!
S.
PS Before I changed to 128 dpi, I made a backup with SPB backup. If I do that, will all the new files be deleted? Does any one know?
Sorry,
I just see that obviously it is possible to uninstall the whole package. Thanks!
S.
Hi,
I tried again with 96dpi resolution and miraculously SPB's pocket plus works with this resolution. Not everything works fine, but I like this resolution and will leave it like this as most important parts I use work quite well.

is there a rom that will allow me to run my TC in true vga mode

I want to be able to run my TC in true vga mode like the touch diamond does. What rom do I need to install to do this.
Or will is there just a software package that will allow me to do this?
also,
what is the best rom for the touch diamond on the TC?
I've searched the forums, but there are so many different answers and roms out there...
Thanks
there is no best rom...most roms here are very good....
and you can't use vga on the tc because tc supports only qvga.....

Hehe...No.
That led me to another question. Is it possible to replace the screen + the appropriate drivers?

Thats a gr8 question rhov23! The TC would become a way better device than Diamond considering it has mem card slot and 1350 mAh battery. Anyone knows if it can be done?

WVGA fix?

Hi, I tried hard to find som WVGA fix similar to one working on Xperia X1, unfortunately without any luck... Tried X1 WVGA fix v1, v2 and v3, but none works on my X2...
I want something to make VGA apps working, for those who don't know what's WVGA fix for. It cuts display (resolution) to VGA and makes black stripes on edges, so VGA programs don't have problems switching to other resolution.
If someone knows any solution (maybe I'm just dumb and can't google or search forum properly), please let me know!
hmm, thats interesting, i use it too and its working fine on my x2 (i use it to play cod 2). are you sure you have tried version 4? because version 4 is the only compatible version with 6.5.3. either way. here is the thread if you just want to try and download it again. good luck
thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=455974
Thanks a lot! So I just suck at googling, didn't find v4 =)
