FWVGA Home Screen on Windows Mobile Standard

4/8/2010

Windows mobile supports full-width VGA (FWVGA) resolution, which is 480 x 854 pixels in portrait format, and 854 x 480 pixels in landscape format at 192 dpi.

In FWVGA, all applications, such as Windows Media Player, are displayed in full screen mode with no blank margins (black borders or white areas). The controls and user interface of applications are laid out and sized appropriately. The welcome screen, home screen, as well as their backgrounds and various themes, are also displayed in full screen mode. Dynamic rotation supports the proper rearrangement of screen content when a user rotates the device.

To configure a device for FWVGA, set the following at build time:

set DPI=192
set RESH=480
set RESV=854
