QVGA software full screen on VGA - General Topics

I have a software that shows full screen only on QVGA (small window on VGA), I found this "Prog Reso Swap v1.0" free software that makes QVGA Window full on VGA screen and I tried it but never succee. Can anyone help me to try if work with you? Or if there is any solution to show QVGA window full screen on VGA.
Thanks in advance

"Prog Reso Swap v1.0" Software link

please...any solution?

Search for something called RealVGA that I think the guys talk about changing screen resolution so you can use software for different resolutions on VGA.

I just tried it. realVGA to make nonQVGA screen->VGA but I am looking for QVGA software fullscreen on VGA screen.
thank you

I still feel this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358657 and this other one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327830 could help. They talk about the different dpi you can get on a VGA screen. There is a sample with pictures of the look of the different dpi options and links to downloads. If the QVGA option is not for you, I am really confused now! sorry I cannot help further.

RealVGA : makes QVGA screen device -> VGA (usefull for QVGA device uses to run VGA software)
I need : VGA screen device -> QVGA (to run QVGA software full screen in VGA)
thanks for this information.

I too have been looking for something like this. For instance, I would love to see the original HTC home in VGA but full screen and not 1/4 the size which is what you get when you install it on a VGA device. If there was a way to get the HTC home to display in VGA where it takes up as much space as the QVGA device, then we will be in business.

I use a combination of Aurorisoft's DotPocket for projecting the Pocket PC screen to my PC, and then use SnagIt 7 to capture the screen.
You could use Microsoft's free offering (Remote Display Control) for the projecting the screen part.

Homeplug is VGA aware...
I've got the homeplug working on my Universal though if you change to QVGA mode the fonts are too big. I think this is because it is VGA aware and so displays bigger fonts on VGA devices. So if you were to run it in your screens native resolution i.e. VGA it looks and works very well... Though you may have problems seeing all you other stuff . I'm fine with VGA though so it doesn't bother me at all...
hi.. can you share the file.. plz.. so we can try in our universal also..
Homeplug
Hi,
Any news here?
I tried the app as well, but it doesn't show good.
Want to fix this, do I need to enlarge the icons?
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Leo
My Friend Laurentius you have to enlarge the layout not the icons.
I am saying that you have to open the distance between each tab so the icons can fully viewed.
Come on do it, you all know that you can.
IF you complete this work i will have a full touch contribution in my Universal and i will upload As soon as possible.
Regards
But... if you can't do it, why do you think I can

Because you have the knowledge. I am just a noobie about the development of oem softwares.
If you have time to check it it will be great.
Believe is a excellent programs and it's to bad working only in Real VGA mode.

Just need to change font...
I think you're going about the problem backwards , though that said I don't know if there is an easy way of changing the font either ... Changing the size of the text windows in the app involves a lot more work than changing the font size of the numerals within those same windows.
Though since I'm very happy with Homeplug in full VGA all I can say is good luck, because I think you guys are going to need it!
Well... I noticed that this app runs great on the HTC Blue angel.
The screen of the Blue angel has the same size as the Universal.
It still doesn't run 100% on Uni.

I dont understand why is so problem making HTC Home to work in VGA resolutions. Is ther no one can do that?!?
i'm working on it.
to answer your question about blueangel, it has a 320x240 screen, lower resolution of that of universal, which is 640x480.
i'm trying to develop a home plugin for our uni, but it takes lot of time.
stay tuned

The Universal's screen is made up of 640 by 480 pixels (ie VGA)
However, Windows Mobile is made for QVGA (ie Quarter VGA, or 320 by 240) screens
So, our devices run in QVGA mode (also known as 96dpi(dpi=dots (ie pixels) per inch)) by standard, by making every 4 "hardware" pixels display one "software" pixel (hence making the VGA screen run at QVGA resolution)
So, to show you the common resolutions for the HTC Universal:
Code:
DPI Resolution Resolution Name Hardware to Software Pixel Ratio
96 320x240 QVGA 4:1
128 512x384 ??? 9:4
192 640x480 VGA 1:1
RealVGA is a piece of software that allows our PDA's to run at the three above resolutions
Hope this helps...
(ps. Sorry for the many edits - trying to make information as clear as possible)
As long as the real VGA is a hack software, why HTC makes an expensive and high battery consuming hardware for a non-supportive software?? i.e., neither HTC nor Microsoft has released any OS that supports the Real VGA resolution, what could be the rational behind the production of a device with VGA screen??
thanks buddy i have been searching looking out for the difference from long time but no one seemed to know it by the way i have the real vga software in my uni according to you which is the best resolution i should put it on to work best??

The thing is that certain apps support "High Resolution" (ie VGA) mode, for instance Pocket IE (on WM6)
Also, using multiple hardware pixels per software pixels allows for antialiasing

Personally I prefer the higher resolutions (128dpi looks good, 192dpi is a little too small); however, there are a couple of problems. Firstly, due to poor programming, some applications (especially those that come with WM6 in the settings menu) don't scale their text properly, leading to missing text on higher resolutions. Secondly, I'm short-sighted so I need the bigger buttons\font
My advice to you is just to try the other resolutions. It does no harm to the device, and you can revert it to the default (or a different resolution) by using the RealVGA program again (so no danger of getting "stuck" in a resolution)
thank you very much for your help sir much appreciated
Added to wiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=UniversalScreenResolution
Hello
I also appreciate this program. However, I have noticed one very unpleasant (at least for me) bug. When there is an incoming call in landscape mode, you couldn't see who is calling (no matter which resolution is set at this moment, even the initial one - according to my understanding this is 192 dpi from the program menu) - caller id info is corrupted - cropped text and photo. I have experienced this bug with 2 wm6 ROMs - JW's and Mo3ulla's. Moreover, in some cases the problem still exists even after uninstall of the RealVGA program. I'm using this version - Real.VGA.for.WM6.v1.1.
Any help or ideas?

Thats not the RealVGA program then, thats your dailer skin (or the skin it applies to the pop-up displaying the person calling)
Additionally, (as I wrote in the wiki) I have no idea who maintains the RealVGA application or where their homepage is

In my understanding, this is the developer: tobias.waldvogel
And it seems that the application is developed for HTC Athena.

I do remember having that problem (and can't remember if it still happens - I'm using JWright's 2.12.04 at the moment)
I don't have RealVGA installed at the moment - however, RealVGA shouldn't change anything if you are running at the default resolution (ie 96dpi)
Hi! May be somebody knows how to connect outside VGA device, like video glasses? Is it possible?
Very puzzled! Help!

Thanks very much for this explanation. It seems very straightforward: the more dpi the more you can cram into the screen, right? So, the smaller things will look....but HERE is where I am confused! The pictures in the thread about RealVGA seem to show that with 96 dpi, the same content seems very small on screen! I am really puzzled here. Please, explain!
From what I gather, 192 dpi is QVGA resolution in a VGA screen like Uni while 96 dpi (realVGA) is native VGA on a VGA screen. So you're absolutely right that 96 dpi should allow a VGA device like the Uni to display 640x480 resolution on a 320x240 screen.
Try to google for "VGA Demystified" by Menneisyys. The article is old but has great insights on VGA stuffs.
How does this work on my new samsung i780 which has a 320X320 resolution? which part should I install?

QVGA Games > VGA Display

*sigh* ok, here we go again.. I've got hold of a few old games that run in qvga, my xda zest is native vga.
I can turn the screen landscape.. are there any apps or settings I can change that force qvga games to run stretched vga landscape mode?
A simple yes or no will do
edit: what's this "ResSwitch" tool i've heard about on a few posts on other threads?
edit2: MyVGA (http://myvga.sourceforge.net/) is there something like this that's more of a generic app?
nobody fancy replying??
as far as I know there is no generic way of doing it
not even sure if there is a general stretched way of doing it
most people settle for programs like wvgafix which just only use
the res the program was made for part of the screen

Application to Generate Wallpaper for TD2

Hello All,
I know TD2 has 800x480 screen and if we give any image for the "Home Screen" of that resolution/size dose not look that original, instead not look that nice as original image.
I have read several post where it is said that the TD2 require a little less size images to display correctly without compressing/loosing the quality, not sure of that size.
Also I read one post where it say how do we convert a 800x480 image so that fits into TD2.
So my question/Curios is do we have any tool developed by any member here where we give input to a 800x480 image file and get converted to the TD2 require size file
I have seen MS also came up with a Theme Generator:

Thanks for the quick reply. But just did a google for this tools and:
1) Diamond BackgroundChanger (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427463)
This will only rotate the background image of the home screen in TF3D mode. I dont think this has ny logic to generate the wallpaper as per TD2 specification.
2) Same as above for today screen.
This is not what we need .
Thanks.
