you can't, unfortunately. at least i didn't find any method. i tried decompiling one game and then recompiling it, but i couldn't recompile. it started throwing errors. i'm not too good at java so i couldn't fix them.

i once asked myself the very same question, but i dont think there is any way.... :(

:rolleyes: i think we need to change resolution in games.but how to do that ?

resize pictures

every picture every polygon every texture, text everything will need to be scaled down and it must be exact....and if its symbian youll have even more fun. I wouldnt bother.

What decompiler are you using? I use DJ Java Decompiler. I think it's very nice, but it could be better....

by the way....what is the purpose of that extra options of games ( SCREEN) i have 4 option there :
-Default
-user Defined
-128X128
-128X160
i think the main goal of it is to " fit " games on k500 screen.but it don't work .

so do i. but i think it does something wrong when it decompiles. i also tried other decopilers, but the result was exactly the same. i obtained the same code as decompiling with dj java.

later edit: found a list of decompilers at http://www.devdaily.com/java/edu/pj/pj010022/ . look at the bottom of the page.

it only works if the game supports the screen extension. the later s40 games do this as some s40 phones are 128X160

@phane

Thank you for the list. The problem i see when decompiling some files is that it creates some label->goto label structures that aren't from java language. I think they can be remplaced for while/for staments with some effort.

unfortunately i know very little java now and no time to learn more. but i'll play around with it a bit later along the way. :)

Screen size in the phone only works if the game is programmed to be able to scale resolution sizes. If its programmed to a fixed resolution, then nogo....
