HOW TO CHANGE JAVA GAMES RESOLUTION FOR NOKIA PHONES

April 12, 2007 Kaushik 27 Comments

Update 07th May,2008: Guys u can use this apps also. Let me know if you face any problem. http://rapidshare.com/files/76784958/S60v3JarResize_v0.2_FIXED.rar.html

Have you ever tried to install a Java game and only to find that the resolution is too small or too big for your phone? If you have, then you are just like me. Sometimes, I have to squint my eyes just to play the game as it is too small on my phone.

You can actually change the resolution of the Java Games for the Nokia phones very easily.

You should be using WinRAR for this. You can download an evaluation copy of WinRAR from http://www.win-rar.com.
Using WinRAR, open the Java file. The Java file has a file extension .jar.

There should be a folder called META-INF. Open that folder.
Inside that folder, there is a file called MANIFEST.MF. Drag and drop the MANIFEST.MF to your Desktop

Open it using Notepad and at the end of the file, add the following two lines to the MANIFEST.MF file.

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

Now save the file. The drag the file back to the .jar file folder META-INF using WinRAR.

Install the JAR file to your phone.

Question: What is the xxx,xxx in the Nokia-MIDlet-Original-Display-Size & Nokia-MIDlet-Target-Display-Size?

Answer: It is the screen resolution.

E.g.
Nokia-MIDlet-Original-Display-Size: 176,208
Nokia-MIDlet-Target-Display-Size: 352,416

The above shows that the original game resolution is 176×208 and the new target resolution is 352×416 i.e. for N80.

    Hay Kaushik, Found this..Its interesting..Must give a try! http://rapidshare.com/files/76784958/S60v3JarResize_v0.2_FIXED.rar.htmlThis little tool is able to edit the manifest and resize the icon of the game.This tool requires .Net framework 2.0 and MAY NOT BE BUG FREE.Usage is very simple : Set the options (original size and output size) and then drag & drop your JAR files on it (no zip files, only valid jar files).Let me know how is it!

    Bro generally the default size is 176,208 but it doesn’t matter. You just put the target resolution properly and the actual resolution as 176,208 and it will work!
