You may see lots of java based games released only for certain models of nokia handsets, which have smaller or bigger resolutions of the n95. You can now get them to work fullscreen as follows:

You have to open a *.jar file for example in WinRar and than open file "manifest.mf" from folder "META-INF".

Then paste this in the end:

Nokia-MIDlet-Original-Display-Size: 176,208
Nokia-MIDlet-Target-Display-Size: 352,416

Former is original resolution of game and the latter is resolution of your phone.

Save the file and send jar to phone, it should work fine

Great tip.

Also, if you change the extension from .jar to .zip it will open up like a regular zip file in programs like WinZip and XP/Vista's built-in zip facility.

N95 resolution is 240x320 so the correct text to be pasted is:

Nokia-MIDlet-Target-Display-Size: 240,320
