never used sensored blizzard rom, but you can either use an app called lcd density for root or change the resolution in the build.prop with root explorer...
How do I do it within the ROM using root explorer

activate root explorer and mount system writeable
go to /system/ scroll to the bottom and choose the build.prop
search for a line which looks like this:
ro.sf.lcd_density=240 ...here you can change the dpi
(example: ro.sf.lcd_density=190) save and reboot = enjoy
Changing density will make some apps not work. I've changed mine through explorer.

yes and the market thinks you have a tab (compatibility issue)...
Rom toolbox allows you to change pixel density. It has almost all the 'root' tools I use these days.

All of a sudden my phone is sluggish and when I check the market a lot of the apps are showing up under my apps....I navigate to need and a yellow message at the top says this app is not compatible with your device..

It's the lcd. Change it back to 240, or downgrade to a 2.x.x market.

Yup, that's the problem. One of the few negative effects of changing lcd density along with the offset dialer

Right I'm trying to change my DPI density on my gnexs, I'm running Paranoidandroid 1.9.1 with FuguMod kernel, and EVERYTIME I try to change the density I reboot it and I just have a blank screen,
I've tried DPI 300
DPI 290
DPI 280
DPI 240
And I just keep getting a blank screen with everyone

How are you trying to change it? Via an app or a manual build.prop edit?

App, but tried build prop and it just gave me an error saying that it won't save

you need to use a root file explorer, and give it permission.

You do know that ParanoidAndroid rom has special DPI controls built in for per app settings etc?
Settings >> Paranoid Settings
Here you can set specific DPI/UI modes for each individual APP / System etc.
I think as these settings are driven from within the ROM the changes made by any other method will break the ROM.
Sorry i can't go into exact specifics i dont use the ROM anymore.
Hope this helps!

I'm on Jedi Mind Tricks ported rom. Anyone know of a compatible density app? Modder won't boot thus far. Any help or suggestions fam?

Download play store and framework from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1639213
Then use Rom Toolbox to change your lcd density.
I've never been able to boot after using lcd modder even with darkside.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Even better, use root explorer to open build.prop. scroll until you see the density: 240. Change it from there and save, reboot. Just keep in mind your phone may not boot regardless of how small of a difference you make so always nandroid first

I used ROM toolbox and it works like charm.. I set it to 200 and also play store will display apps incompatible , to fix this use LCD density modder and click on fix market issues and install it..then u r ready to go.

Greetings xda,
Lovin the alliance rom im running, but I want to try the tablet ui. I installed xposed framework but cant seem to find a module that works. I can only get a tablet ui zip which cant install as a apk. Flashing it dousnt work either. Any suggestions?
I really like alliance and I dont want to lose all the sammy features, pa is no option for me.
Thanks in advance!

Yea been there and also couldn't find one either. It seems the mods currently available are meant for the 4.1.1. If you really want the exact same experience as the Note 10.1 then you should try Mini Tab Rom.
Also, this might sound dumb, but try changing the extension of the zip file from .zip to .apk and then try installing.

Just use a build. Prop editor to change lcd density to 160

If you downloaded the tablet apk from the villainrom forum it downloads as a zip just rename it as an apk and install it. Ive attached it as an apk for you

That only changes it to phablet mode but not tablet ui. A tablet mode would mean the status bar would be on the bottom.

In "xposed app settings" (a module you have to install for the "xposed installer".
There you can set app specific settings like resolution.

Not sure if anyone has tried it yet, but I am a big fan of split screens in Gmail and settings. I used Xposed with the app settings apk and changed the dpi and dp and was able to get split screens. See screenshots below. Used 300-350 for the dpi and 800x1280 for the dp.

I think you are the first time to use dpi setting apps... It works on any device with any rom for long time ago, not only our G Pro. For "split screens", it depends on apps' resources supporting tablet layouts or not.

It's a great app most definitely. Love the difference from hd to full hd.

No, not my first time using dpi tweaks. But first time for app specific dpi tweaks. I was just posting this in case someone was wondering if the app settings apk in Xposed worked or not.
