Using Go Launcher, 200 seems nice to me. It can affect apps, certain games look crappy. Most things seem to work well. The dialpad gets smaller as you increase density.
320 is too big and 240 is too small.
And I read using anything other than those will cause market compatibility issues ..correct?

I use 280, retains all the phone layouts. 240 was too small and made a few apps turn into tablet mode, which is more worse than better.
To fix market incompatibilities, buy:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.birdapi.android.dpipro
and apply the market fix, works great.
I feel quite comfortable with 246 (240 was causing some layout issues).
LCD Density Modder fix is great. I had some issues with previous releases, latest one fixed everything!

Do all your apps still show up in the market? Cause the market uses your density as part of the compatibility check to see what available for your phone.

You can't modify your settings in stock launcher.
I'd recommend using Nova Launcher to change this (you can find it in the Themes & Apps section) change the Columns & Rows to your liking.
You can do this with any other launchers as well. Stock launcher has very limited options, so you can't change Columns & Rows.
ADWLauncher works great too. More options than nova as if now.

To anyone who doesn't feel like buying an app to fix the Market, you might try this:
1. Set your DPI to something "normal" like 240 or 320.
2. Reboot.
3. Force close the Market app (if it's running) and clear its cache+data.
4. Using Titanium Backup, freeze the "Market Updater" application.
5. Set your DPI back to whatever you want.
6. Reboot.
7. Launch the Market.
I believe that will prevent the Market from seeing you have a non-standard DPI.
I set my dpi on this phone to 240 and I LOVE it and the market still works fine so far! Just wondering how i can mod the dialer/camera to fit the 240 dpi. And also the stock keyboard dosent work but i dont care much about that i use swiftkey 3.
Shame the standard keyboard doesn't work, I really like it.
As to the dialer? hmm, probably need to get a replacement for that too, shame it doesn't scale either. Someone can probably hack the .apk to allow different dpi's perhaps?
What app did you use to change your density it would be cool to do that with this ginormous screen

Change the value for ro.sf.lcd_density in the build.prop. You can do this with apps like ROM Toolbox Pro.
I was running 240 as well, and loved it but the camera, dialer and Samsung keyboard issues bugged me enough to go back to 320.
I have mine set at 270 and everything, including dialer and camera works great.

That's the magic number? Excellent.
I love the 270 dpi but how do I or am I able to get the launcher to not be so high into the middle of the screen... Like the dots to show what page ur on is raised to the middle of the screen

use a different launcher. I use nova
So no suggestions for dialers or camera mods that fix the scaling issues. They are better at 270 but not perfect.

Hi.
Can someone plz give a working link here to a modified touchwiz launcher 240 dpi as i need to use it for snote page buddy in 240 dpi.
I have found a few modified on google but when installed they work as if they are 340 dpi
I got system at 240 dpi but poor samsung programming does not allow tw to change dpi and therefor looks really stupid and ugly.

Search for Xposed framework mod. In there you can assign different DPI for any app, so set your system to 240 and set launcher to 320. Unless you just want more shortcuts on "desktops" then in Xposed there is a mod that allows 5x4 icons on desktop. Look here mods repository.
Thanks for the help but i found some other post which i must have missed the first time around i browsed through.

Thinking about getting the G3 once I get a upgrade but has anyone changed there dpi to something smaller. Do all the apps work? Does anything crash? What dpi setting right now...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/dpi-g3-t2802827
I used Rom toolbox once I was rooted and changed mine to 600. No crashes at all and I tested a bunch of apps.

I'm running a 560 dpi setting right now. Been awesome.

560 here. The stock value just seemed oddly proportioned. Ya got 5.5 inches, use em!
But I also use Xposed App Settings to assign dpi on a per-app basis.
540 here.
530 master race
Also using 530 here without any problems.

Xposed / App Settings has no option to put the Smart Notice stuff back at 640dpi?
Nope doesn't fix it.... The LG weather widget fits perfect with 530 .... The smart notice doesn't
After change the resolution to full hd and 530 dpi i can't fix the doc icons,any help please.trying with app settings on xposed
Changing the DPI messes up the QuickCircle case display. Im using ART so xposed is no go to change it.
