[android-developers] Re: How to Change Screen Resolution Programmatically?

2011-01-07 Thread sjor
I am sure it can be done by software. I have seen an example in
WebtubeHD. But, it is not open source as you anticipate. I am gonna
look libhdmi.c and build.prop tomorrow. Maybe I can make something.

 place to ask this question.

  Hi. Let me tell you my problem. I want to change my screen resolution.
  I can change it in an application but it changes only application's
  screen. I wanna set system's resolution so it won't be important which
  application is running on front. My device's resolution is set as 1280
  * 720 p. Can I make it 1260 * 680? If it requires to make changes in
  Android source code, I can. Just tell me where to change. Waiting for
  your help.

No, it can not.  At least not at the third party app level.  And not in the
standard platform, which currently assumes the screen is one fixed
resolution from the time it boots.  And even if you could, it doesn't make
sense to do so on the kinds of devices Android runs on, where the device is
built with a screen that has a very clear fixed resolution.
