VGA - Palm Treo 750 ROM Development

I saw on the downloadable hacks (from the wiki site) that there is a true vga app for the 750.
Has anybody tried this? Does it actually work? With WM6 working with higher resolutions now i'm interested (i'm getting mine in the mail today!)
Any feedback would be appreciated.

Are you talking about higher resolution on the 750? That's not possible with just a sofware hack. The screen itself is the limitation...now if there were only a way to stuff the screen from the Treo 680 into the 750.

VGA Confusion

I have a 8125 and dont really understand what vga is all abot. Can someone tell me or lead me to some posts about vga resolution...ie: its benfits, how to get it what its for. Sorry if this sounds stupid but if you want to learn you must ask questions. i in return will happily answer questions on what i know everything about, which is flooring, i know its not any way related but just figured id put it out there... thanks... Shady
as I understand it, some PPCs have a hardware 640x480 (VGA) screen and use pixel doubling to make it act like a 320x240 screen. As I also understand it, there is software available that can turn it into a 640x480 screen by turning off pixel doubling via a new display driver. I think that's what I got out of it. The reason I'm not sure is because I have a Wizard MDA and and Blue Angel and neither has a hardware 640x480 screen. Since yours is a Wizards, yours is also 320x240 hardware. There was a nice utility around that let you set any resolution you wanted up to 1280x1024 but it was for WM2003SE only and hasn't been updated for WM5 and even at 640x480, half of the physical pixels were removed and it was very hard, if not impossible, to read the screen. nyditot.com was where it was located, as I recall. Anyway, that's VGA from my readings on this site. If I'm wrong, someone post a correction, please.

Wizard Video Resolution

We have a number of Wizards - (t mobile) and apache (verizon) in the office and we have begun to use them for mini documentaries.
The Apache's have a mpeg4 setting for 320x240 (large) while the wizards only support 176x144 (medium). Is there a hack to change the wizard resolution to 320x240?
Are there any other camera software programs or in phone editing programs
thanks

Radio Ver 02.07.10
I'm pretty sure if you look around a bit in here you'll find an answer, I'm not sure myself. You could try comparing the registry in both devices I figure \HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\Camera\Recparam should be the place you wanna look in. If the MDA is missing any key that the Apache's have try adding that value to the MDA's registry to see if it does the trick. That SHOULD work if the issue is just difference in the registry. Since as far as I know, aside from the different radio technology and casing they are twin devices in every other way. If that doesn't work, do a little searching around as I'm sure you will find an answer in here. Hope that helped some, good luck.
Use CoolCamera v1.08 to record video in ANY resolution. This program works on Prophet too.
You can download this software from official web-site:
www.ateksoft.com.
Thank you
Thanks - i just dl the camera app - lets see if it does the trick
keep us posted regarding the coolcamera app.....im thinking of using it as well, but i need to know if this works properly on the wizard before i install it.....thanks
bump!
wtf is this under 200 resolution BS that my 8125 is equipped with??? i feel like i'm using win95 all over again
is there any software for editing video directly on the MDA, away from a PC.

Recommended [VGA] application list

Well i havn't used windows mobile in about 2 years, and back then it was all about trying to find QVGA compatible apps.
Since i'll be getting my diamond next week, along with a load of other people i'm sure, can anyone recommend some good/must have apps? I'm only interested in VGA apps, not upscaled stuff - unless you reallly think its worth it.
I think if we can build up a list it would help alot of people. If there's alot of repies i'll just keep updating this first post.
EDIT: Also can someone tell me whats the best GPS software? TomTom? iGo? Co-Pilot? And do any of them handle speed cameras and/of traffic?
vga apps
I agree, I am expecting my TD next week also and think this would be a good idea. I have been using Windows mobile for a couple years after being a palm user for 5. I currently have an Orbit 2. I also use Tom Tom which i really like. It really runs good on my Orbit 2, a lot smoother than on Palm versions.
realvga is the best application you can have on a vga screen. granted, it makes more incompatibilities, but it basically makes your screen 4 times bigger in total [2x wider and length]
apart from that, id say teksoftco's fingertouch keyboard which is great, although the diamond one looks great too.
apart from that, id say most stuff i use is multi resolution
Igo it is not compatible with the diamond due to it is sold with a SD card.
Tomtom is compatible with the VGA screen
coreplayer too
Is RealVGA working???
Hello is RealVGA working on the Diamond?
Does the HTC software include all Icons for 192dpi, 128dpi and 96dpi mode?

i have igo8 working on my diamond perfect, theres a few threads here about getting it to work and i believe there is a diamond specific version out there now. its much better than TomTom which lagged and took ages to catch up with where you acctually are! igo8 has so many more useful features too!

iGo IS very compatible with the Diamond and it looks absolutely amazing on the VGA screen. There are a few threads about this in the Diamond section of XDA including one that has very detailed instructions on setting up and tweaking the application. Search for it and you will find just about everything you need there
Almost all QVGA apps adjust themselves to the VGA resoution so you almost never have a problem. Maybe old games could be problematic but it's rare. So you don't have to go around looking for VGA apps.

Mobile 6.5 and programs requiring VGA res without WGAFix3 - HOW??????

I really like all these windows mobile 6.5 roms that are popping up for experia, but i cannot justify using one without the ability to use WVGA fix. I use Picodrive and Finalburn along with Tomtom 6 and some other software, none of which work without WVGAFix3 which itsself is said not to work with 6.5.
There must be a load of people now with 6.5 roms, that like this software so how does everybody else do it? Or does everybody really just stop using their favorite software in favor of a 6.5 rom?
I have found nothing in the WVGAFix thread.
C'mon guys.....i cant be the only one faced with this dilemma?
Even if you use WM 6.5 (like me ;-) ) you can use WGAFix3. It doesnt give a black bar after use - but the Apps work after activating WGAFix - and before they didnt worked.
Have fun.

Hello,
I am also looking for a program like WVGAFix work on my WM6.5, I have a program need resolution 240 x 320 to be worked on my WM6.5 machine with resolution 480 x 800.
Please help! Thanks!
If anyone comes up with anything let me know as well ....
Maybe you should ask in the General section? Surely X2 is not the only WV mobile with WVGA resolution. And tell us if you find anything.
(I don't have my X2 at the moment and my Kaiser has QVGA resolution.)
