[Q] A screen question? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Has anyone ever thought of trying to run the touch pro or diamond at 480 x 800 ?

Not likely, as it would be kind of blurry and ugly, considering the native resolution (i.e. how many physical pixels are actually there) is 480 x 640 in both cases.

Oh ok I was kind of thinking like for example, the 96 dpi hack for qvga screens.

Is there anyway to get 240 x 320 QVGA on a Treo 750

Does anyone know if the physical screen in the Treo 750v is the same HARDWARE as the physical screen in the Treo 680 ?
That is, is the 750v screen physically capable of 320 x 320 resolution (like a 680) ?
I know that Windows Mobile does not support 320 x 320 screen resolution - that is not what I am after.
I am just thinking, if it can do 320 x 320, would it be possible to get the Treo 750v to display normal QVGA 240 x 320 resolution in WM5.
Of course, this would mean everything would be smaller in order to get 80 extra pixels vertically. Horizontally, not only would things be smaller, but the screen would show nothing (black) for 80 pixels across (ideally this would be done as 40 pixel wide black bars either side of the 240 wide display area).
While this may be too small for most people, I have recently played with an XDA Stealth which has a 2.4inch QVGA screen, which whilst small, is still quite acceptable.
The screen on the XDA Stealth is only about 2mm taller than the Treo 750v screen.
I know that the DISPLAY DRIVER is the thing that tells the OS what the screen resolution is...... I wonder if there is a way to get a display driver on the Treo to run at 240 x 320.
I have seen NYDITOT, but I was wondering if there was a more native solution.
AFAIK the hardware on the 750v/c is a 240 x 240 screen whilst the 680 has a 320 x 320 screen. So the answer would be no.
Physically not possible, but can be possible software-wise
There is a program called NYDITOT that emulates different resolutions on the Treo. This makes it possible to have the display be 320 x 320 or 480 x 480, although text and images aren't as sharp. However, this allows most applications that require a 240 x 320 screen to run, as that resolution can be emulated so that the screen either scrolls to give it a full res, or be scaled to fit on screen.
Yeah, I have played with NYDITOT, but there is only so much that can be achieved in terms of sharpness/clarity when you have a 240 x 240 screen emulating 240 x 320 etc.
What I was *hoping* (although not really expecting) was that the 750v screen was the same physical hardware as the 680's 320 x 320 screen - the 750v just being told to run at 240 x 240 to suit WM5.
If this was the case, then the screen should be capable of doing a native 240 x 320 better (ie sharper, clearer etc) than NYDITOT can achieve through emulation.
Of course, if the hardware is different and the 750v's screen only supports a native resolution of 240 x 240 then NYDITOT is the best we will ever get.

htc sensaation resolution

i just checked my htc sensation roted resouktation and it shows that my screen 240ppi rather then what it states on htc phone
Display Type S-LCD capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors
Size 540 x 960 pixels, 4.3 inches (~256 ppi pixel density)
source from http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_sensation-3875.php
and a screen shot of showing that it is running 540*960 at 240 ppi rather then 256
i need to know if this is only happening to me or your phone have the same ppi
please reply to me anyone
beside i just wanna know i'm not really worried about the ppi thing but i want to know if this is only happening to me or other people have the same thing.
i'm using lcd resolution app from market its free and only require root.
my phone is set at the same 240 ppi

i wonder why they had to lie about the ppi thing.
HTC have not listed the dpi on this phone as 256.... GSM arena can say what ever spec they want but it doesnt mean it true. The optimum dpi for that display when its sold may be 256 or may not but either way all HTC roms are set as 240..
all that prog does is change the entry in the build prop file

in the software you can actually change the resolution but i thought lets just stick with 240 thing.
The software is telling you dpi, not ppi. A dot can consists of more than 1 pixel, and if you set the dpi so that each pixel contains more than 1 dot... it can look weird.
Changing the dpi setting can increase/decrease the font and various graphics on screen. That's why many of the 5- or 7-inch tablets, although only have WVGA resolution, display more stuff on screen than many of the WVGA phones. They simply scale up the dpi setting. Of course setting it too high on a low ppi screen will make everything looks crappy.

galaxy note wallpaper

i understand the screen resolution is 1280 x 800 but does anyone know what size wallpapers need to be. they are larger than screen resolution to provide mulitple screens sliding. thanks
note: i believe they need to be 1280 x 1600 (horizontal - vertical) for scrolling wallpapers.
and of course 800 x 1280 - if you use disable wallpaper scrolling.
Live Wallpaper
Phone not support live wallpaper?
Tried 3 different, all worked fine.
sent from my Galaxy Note via T*patalk
ist nice

Any wallpaper with resolution of 1280 x 1280 is best for note (without scrolling)..

[Q] Developing for different screen resolutions

My friend and I are developing an app, I'm doing all design work. So there is the problem. I don't know what size should be my designed graphics. In android developers i found this:
ldpi: 0.75
mdpi: 1
hdpi: 1.5
xhdpi: 2
And this..
xlarge screens are at least 960dp x 720dp
large screens are at least 640dp x 480dp
normal screens are at least 470dp x 320dp
small screens are at least 426dp x 320dp
But if I have xhdpi and it is 720 wide and I wanna get hdpi and do this:
720/2*1,5 I get 540 pixels. Its not 480 as I think it should be.
Where is the problem? How should I calculate what size my graphics should be on different screen sizes?
Anyone?
Anyone? I really need an answer..

According to the gsm areana site (which is usually pretty accurate for this sort of stuff), the full spec details for each of these models are as follows:
OnePlus 6:
External Dimensions: 7.5 mm thickness (no data on length and height as of yet, until officially announced, but the screen size may give you some idea)
Screen Size: 6.28 inches, 98.4 cm2
Resolution: 1080 x 2280 pixels, 19:9 ratio (~402 ppi density)
https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_6-9109.php
OnePlus 5T:
Dimensions: 7.5 mm thickness
Screen Size: 6.01 inches, 93.7 cm2 (~80.0% screen-to-body ratio)
Resolution: 1080 x 2160 pixels, 18:9 ratio (~401 ppi density)
https://www.gsmarena.com/oneplus_5t-8912.php
As you can see the thickness of both phones appears to be the same, however the screen size is not. (the screen on the OnePlus 6 looks like it will be bigger than the OnePlus 5T). Though bear in mind if they're doing the whole full screen with notch thing, that doesn't necessarily mean that the external dimensions will change. So for that, we'll just have to wait and see.
If you could have the dimensions any way you wanted them though, what would you ideally be hoping they would be?

thanks, hopefully on par or smaller than the existing 5t.

Yeah, I hope they don't get too much bigger either, I think plus sized smartphones are already slightly larger than the ideal size for carrying anyway. And if they go any bigger, they might as well be full blown tablets. But smartphones with a big enough screen whilst still being able to carry them in a jeans pocket comfortably without it bulging to the extent where it either digs in or just looks like I'm just pleased to see ya, is ideally the way I prefer them to be.
