K500i users have an option to change "Screen" settings for Java games that are not 128*160 in size. But this setting only seems to change the screen area instead of resizing the game itself. Does anyone know what this setting is actually for? And if you can't resize games for the K500i, then which series of nokia java games work properly for the K500i? Please help.

thats the first thing I tried. especially since there are so many of them lying around
But I only see 1/4 of the K700i game screens on my K500i. The resize option does'nt do anything other than change the viewing region.

If you upgrade to RAA firmware, this option dissapears.
