[Q] Changing resolution? - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wanted to know if its possible to change the resolution on a samsung i5800/i5801 using any of the custom firmware/mods/roms/drivers...?
As the default resolution is somewhat limiting and is silly for a 3.2" screen

checked the lcd density changer app??

If changing between 0-120 the statusbar application is FC in CyanogenMod 7.

well i dont think u can change the resolution by any app....i guess u can only change the density and graphics and textures .......but changing a resolution by any app...totally doesnt make sense....cuz if it was possible i wud make the resolution of my g3 same as s2

Best regards.

you dont understand what hes asking....and how do you know what his resolution is, you have no idea what phone he has??
------------------------
OP is your phone rooted? if so, you can download an app caleld "ninjamorph", free from market, to find out what the pixel size of the top and bottom bars are in handcent and adjust your background size according to that:
Phone's screen resolution - (size of handcent top bar + bottom bar) = correct background resolution
if you are WICKED confused i can do it for you....but you should do it yourself if you can...you can learn a lot using ninjamorph

[Q] Problem with LCD

I have a 7“ tablet with Resolution 1024x600. I broke my LCD and ordered a replacement from China. However the Chinese have sent me the wrong LCD that has a resolution of 800x480. LCD is visually identical and can fit them in tablet, only it displays the image as the attached picture.
My question is if I can change the resolution in the android to 800x480. Tablet is rooted.
of course you can....
in settings init.
Can you please explain how to change the resolution in settings init?
Try using LCD Density Changer or other smiliar apps
I tried the application for change density, but only changes the icons and text as wallpaper, pictures and video remain the same resolution (1024x600).

[Q] Wallpaper not fitting the screen perfectly

Hello,
I want to set a 1080x1920 picture as wallpaper but I can't make it to fit my screen perfectly - there are either black bars at some sides of the screen or the wallpaper is messed up. I've tried to use Wizardrii and Image2Wallpaper in many ways and this is the closest of what I was able to do: http://i.imgur.com/RuMWRNu.jpg
Any suggestions? I'm using Action Launcher Pro without any additional screens so I don't want my wallpaper to scroll. I would like it to be something like if you set a wallpaper on Windows PC. Plain and simple
Out of interest, are higher res wallpapers better?

Not sure what do you mean but I always like to choose high resolution wallpapers, they simply look nicer for me. Also I prefer static wallpapers over the scrolled ones.:angel:

Screen is 1080x1920 in portrait mode. Not.1920x1080 so make sure you're getting wallpapers then right shape.
If you get a higher resolution than that, it cannot look better. It will either crop or compress (which could look worse) but if you do get a higher resolution than that, do you still get the bars?

I'm aware about differences, that's why I'm looking for 1080x1920 wallpapers instead of reversal Also when I look for higher resolution wallpapers, I usually look for those who are exactly 1.5x or 2x bigger than the native resolution and for those with the same aspect ratio (16:9/9:16 in that case). I'll look for a bigger wallpapers and then let you know.
EDIT: Found a wallpaper which is two (...or four?) times bigger: http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/313/d/2/bad_boy_by_p0nystark-d6tnf8n.jpg
Trying to set it as wallpaper resulted in a black bar on top of the screen: http://i.imgur.com/RpFoBGB.jpg
I'm still messing with all the possible options in both of those apps. How come that Android itself is not able to properly set such a wallpaper? For me it is actually ridiculous...

Image 2 wallpaper works great for me.

font size

I am rather furstrated with the font size for this screen. i have it set to small and things are rather large as if the font is set to normal.
this phone has high resolution and a good ppi so it should be no problem shrinking things on the screen.
is there a utility or program that can do this? being this a miui based rom it'd be a disaster tinkering with it.
