Using Kabuto_Kun's harder method to find resolution hacks, I came across a hack for Miracle Girls Festival to bump the resolution from 720x408 to 960x544, affecting the PVs, songs, and part of the main menu
Screenshots comparisons [Before/After/etc.]: Full album download (8 pairs of images)
Framerate Test for 408p/544p, mostly on the short versions of the songs on extreme difficulty, but I did try out Mashiro World and Innocent Blue's Full versions because of how well they performed at 544p on default clock speeds.
408p/Default- Holds 30FPS perfectly (frame pacing considered)
544p/Default- Only two songs hold FPS outside of the Forest Stadium: "Mashiro's World" and "Innocent Blue". "Jumping!" is pretty close to a locked 30FPS. The rest of the songs have parts that see sustained periods of sub-30FPS or have their framerate tank once the Miracle Fever Time is activated
544p/Maximum- 20 of the 22 TV Edits are now locked to 30FPS. "Kotoba Sagashitai" can still dip on Tenku Tower and "Tesaguri Club Song" can still dip on the Forest Stadium
Steps to editing the eboot ON A MAIDUMP/VITAMIN VERSION:
1) Open the game's decrypted eboot.bin in a Hex Editor (HxD, PSPad)
2) Jump to these eight offsets and replace the string of values on the left to the ones on the right:
1) 157F90 - 5FF43472 -> 5FF47072
2) 158F98 - 5FF4CC73 -> 5FF40873
3) 159F8E - 5FF43472 -> 5FF47072
4) 159F96 - 5FF4CC74 -> 5FF40874
5) 15D40A - 5FF43473 -> 5FF47073
6) 15D40E - 5FF4CC7E -> 5FF4087E
7) 15D7A4 - 5FF43477 -> 5FF47077
8) 15D7A8 - 5FF4CC7E -> 5FF4087E

If you are trying to edit AN ENCRYPTED (Cart/PSN/NoNpDRM) VERSION, you will need to subtract 1000 to the offsets from a Maidump version (I've already done so for these offsets). (Follow TheRadziu's tutorial under "Eboot modding and/or running 3.65+ games on 3.60 and 3.65". The new offsets are: (Remember to add the first 8 bytes from the self_auth.bin to the files after they've been ran through make_fself.exe at offset 80)2) 159F98 - 5FF4CC73 -> 5FF40873
