Two black lines on the screen on my Android game . [SOLVED]

This is what it looks like now. Please help.

I've been looking through the forums for days, and I still haven't found a solution to why my game has these lines on in. How do I remove the black lines and make it full-screen? My game is in portrait mode and those black lines are not on my game when I open it on my PC or on my PC in emulation(phone) mode.

putting your game on a phone the image will be different for each phone some phones have a smaller screen and some have a bigger screen so which size do you have small one or a big one??

your pc resolution is different from a cell phone even using emulation won't tell you everything

best thing to do is try resizing the one image try to find the right size both sizes of the actual cell phone

What is your phone model? A lot of phones use a 9:18 aspect ratio instead of the typical 9:16, which will result in these bars being added (by your phone) to maintain the aspect ratio.

Thanks! I've tested it with 3 different phones and got 2 cropped screens and 1 full-screen. I'll go ahead and resize it the game vertically so it can fit other phones.
