(Q) Stock LCD density value - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Over the past couple of days, I've had several apps show up in the market as 'incompatible with your device.' After doing a bit of reading, it may be b/c I changed my LCD density with root tools. Curious if anyone knows the stock value or has any other idead as to what could have happened.
I've got a rooted r800x, locked bootloader.
Thanks!

default is 240 dpi

That's what I thought. Still getting the device incompatible message...anybody have any ideas?? The only other tweaks I've done are the Xperia tweaks (gpu/touchscreen)...tried disabling both of them and no change. Market build is 3.3.11

You might try clearing your Market Data. I got that once, not compatible. I cleard the cache data and it worked for me, not saying it works for everything but you could try it.

That did the trick! Thanks for the help!

CM7 Device Name in the market

I keep getting messages that my device isn't compatible with most software in the market. I'm on nightly 14. It's not a great situation because I can't update many of my apps, and some require updates to function. Any way I can change it so its recognized correctly?
I was having the same problem but it went away for me as of a few minutes ago. I'm running nightly 16 with kernel sanders v3 and have the odexed file mod

Change references in build.prop from epicmtd to epic. Iirc though, this has been fixed in later builds.
If you've changed your dpi settings, revert the changes. This ****s with the market also.

I think there's a cracked market that fixes that. And yes, market filtering has been fixed in the nightlies

Jt, are you still working with the epic cm team? It looks like they need help with the touchscreen on cm9 and the epic and charge drivers are pretty different. Thanks for all the help and great stuff you've brought for this community, especially without having an epic.

[Q] Market has missing apps, especially one that are installed and/or purchased

hello,
i have a epic 4g rooted, stock rom, seems that when i go to the market, it does not show the apps that i have installed and/or the ones that i purchased. additionally, if i were to delete one of these missing apps, they still dont show up in the market/google play. I have attempted to use various market enablers, but this has not solved my issue. on another note, and perhaps related, when i use titanium backup only one app shows setcpu, while previously it was working.
a lending hand would greatly be appreciated.
eric

assistance, please...
Try wiping data in Google Play, and let it rebuild your list. You may need to use Titanium backup for this.

This has happened to me before, and wiping the data should fix it. I was able to do it without Titanium through the app manager.
thank you for responding. that did not seem to do the trick, though. suggestions?
Flash a new rom? Make a nandroid in case that doesn't work..

You could try manually flashing a different Google play version and let it upgrade automatically. This happened to me once and that fixed it for me.

The problem is FRUSTRATING the "F" out of me with Google Play. I have a rooted and running AKOP epicmtd milestone 5.2 and when I go to download certian apps (even ones I already had before on my apps list), I get a black box that says "This device isn't compatible with this version" It's making me crazy because there are LOTS of apps that are pretty common that I use I cant download. Like Facebook for instance. But there are more important ones that I count on that I cant get back. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone solve this problem?? I sure could use some help cause Im bout ready to throw this thing at my annoying step daughter LOL! Thanks

Did you change your lcd resolution? That makes apps incompatible for your device.

Hey Kenny, I followed the directions to the LCD settings thing here, and now I cant get into Play at all! GRRR. it says something about background data needing to be enabled, but when I click on the option box to "enable" this background data, it takes me to "accounts and sync" and from there I dont know what the heck to do. Ive rebooted from there, Ive done this process over and over about 5 times and it's still not working and now some of my app icons have been changed to the little android guy. VERY confused now EESH!! Anymore ideas?
Thanks,
Ridge
Reflash the ROM..isn't that standard density? It probably wants you to enable gmail sync and sign in.
Sent from my PantechP4100 using xda premium
At the very top of accounts and sync in the settings you will see background data... check the box... background data has to run for the market to run

LCD Density

Doss anyone here know a good app to adjust this for JB
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Any sort of build.prop editor should work as long as you're rooted. Change ro.sf.lcd_density to your required value. This should almost guarantee computability with JB.

Thanks. Glad to know. I didn't know Rom Toolbox could so that. And I have the Pro.
Link to the toolkit? I was unaware the 7.0(?) had been updated to support JB.
EDIT: Nevermind, didn't realized it was toolbox that was mentioned and not toolkit.
I didn't check I just did it on the off chance . Every ROM I've used ROM toolbox has always been able to change DPI where as other apps haven't. So do it anyway see what happens lol but its fine

DPI and play store

Can someone post the steps to get Google play store to find certain apps when it doesn't recognize my device because I have the DPI set low? I remember when I was on aokp it had the steps built into the ROM but I don't remember how. Play store either doesn't show what I was searching for or it says device not compatible. Also what is the lowest you can set it before the play store can't recognize it? Thanks!

Change dpi, reboot, clear market cache, enter market, accept.
As far as dpi for market, depends on what you consider working. As you move away from stock, you start having different things happening like movies+tv disappearing or apps being not supported. You have to mess around since no one has yet posted a list of trial and errors. To get around the apps issue, download the modified market app. It will remove the app restriction, but be careful you don't try to install something you shouldn't.
Download LCD modder pro. It gives you the option to download modded market. Works great for me
I use rom toolbox pro to change dpi, reboot, download 2 files from lcd modder pro, install and reboot. You might see a bunch of things fc while its prepping to reboot but its fine

Haha! I know the feeling!!! Just a quick note!
When you replace the files. Delete the app cache for the market and Google services framework via settings then flash the modded market. I'm gonna look into Google services framework as well and see what role that gas in market compatibility. Also after replacing files, reboot to recovery and clear bother cache partition and dalvik cache. That should help.

So after I changed DPI and rebooted, my phone wouldn't come on. I did dark side cache several times and phone wouldn't come on. Thank God I had an old nandroid. Not the current jb one. So I did follow the steps exactly like you said.

Did you change the DPI before adding the files? or did you change the files then change DPI and then reboot? It being JB shouldnt really matter as the android market is pretty universal as GB market works on ICS and etc. However they may have changed it.
Can you provide an exact step by step as to what you did?

TF101 Apps on Nexus 7

I've been doing alot of searching, haven't found a definitive answer.
My question. Can the "Mylibrary.apk" work on the n7? I have pushed my copy of the apk to /system /app to no avail. Won't even open, crashes to "unfortunately, Mylibrary has stopped". I've also changed file permissions appropriately.
I know, that should give me the answer I need, but I'm curious if maybe I need more than just the apk, so that's what I'm looking for, an answer to this question. Do I need anything else, other than a TF101, to make it work?
It's not about finding a book app, I could just use the nook app. I like Mylibrary from Asus.
Thanks for any responses

Exactly what I'm wondering. Guess I could've been that straightforward as well
I know I had it running on my n7 before, but had to remove it to update, I believe, and I can't for the life of me remember where I got the info on installing it
If it matters, I'm on rooted 4.1.2. Also if it matters, I have my dpi set at 160

I have a TF101 and the MyLibrary app doesnt even work with CM10 or CM9 on that. You need ASUS framework for it.
