After setting screen density to 190 using rom toolbox I get this error and my notification bar is gone! Please help! I'm on CM9 A4

I've seen where 190 and lower causes some problems on CM9 A4.
Most Density changers are reset upon reboot... so first try a hard reset.
If that doesn't work then I guess I would resort to Odin'ing a CWM ROM and starting over.. it never bothers me to start from scratch... but I know some people avoid it at all cost. That's all I got. I just switched back to a GB ROM for now just because of all the problems reported with ICS leaks so far.. it won't be too long before we get an official ICS update.
I'm on 190 dpi and no fc's here

Trying to change my LCD density while running ics leak. It changes and says to re boot, i do and all i get is black screen. Have to restore to get phone working again. This is only on ics and i am only changing density to 200. I am on my phone and the search function sucks. I have gone thru several pages in various headers and cannot find this question. Just wondering if this is a bug, if it is fixable, and how to fix it? Thank you in advance...

Are you using an app to change your dpi? Just edit your build.prop in /system using root explorer

I changed LCDdensity one through Rom Toolbox and it messed up my ICS rom permanently somehow. Even after I changed it back to stock some icons/menus never reverted back to stock so it was all kinds of messed up.
i said screw it and restored from nandroid. I'd do that or wipe and flash rom again if it keeps giving you problems.
What launcher are you using? I got it to work using Rom Toolbox

Using trebuchet, but had the problem with apex as well. I am using LCD density changer pro from the market.
Edit... Got it to work by editing build prop with root explorer, then downloading just the market fix from the app. Thanks for all input.

Yeah, I used to use LCD Modder pro, but it gave me way too many problems. Total junk

Ok, I really don't know what happened. I charged the phone last night, and it froze overnight( not a normal occurrence). So this morning I did a battery pull and restart. It had some issues restarting, it took 3 tries to get it to work. Then when it did start, the display was odd. Everything is very small. The display still stretches the entire screen, just very small. Almost like the phone thinks it is a tablet. I was running cm9, but I flashed back to stock FTF about a month ago. Only thing done since is root (to retrieve titanium backups) and install cwm. I know that I could probably flash again and solve problems, but I just don't want to mess with rooting and restoring again. I tried clearing cache and dalvic cache, but no luck. I have attached screenshots of the problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Not sure what is up with the notification bar, but it goes away when in landscape mode. (shown in pic)
Mybe u should refer this to the rom thread or read through the rom thread 1st. Coz mybe sm1 already suffers the same issues with the rom..

Bad .ftf mybe. Did u hav another .ftf u could flash?? If dont try downloading another 1 n try flashing it again. But looking at ur screen did u install custom mod/theme on ur stock rom??

...That looks pretty sweet actually, garbled notification text aside XD
My big question is what could cause this even? I've nevrr even heard of this happening
Sent from my R800x using xda premium
No, no custom themes or any build.prop edits. But, could this be caused or fixed by a build.prop edit?

>that's your phone trolling you..
It looks like your pixel density is messed up all the small icons I remember messing around with it before and thats what it use to happen when I set it to high... I remember there is an app that can do that if ur rooted but the blurry notification don't know what could cause that

It was the lcd density. I went into rom toolbox and checked it. The slider was at the minimum. I raised it to half and rebooted. Problem solved. It also fixed the notification bar. Does anyone know the correct density to use?

Actually, the default density for the Play is 240.
Is anyone having the issue where the phone freezes and then goes to the lockscreen and reloads?...when it does this, my clock reads the wrong time until i reboot...

Try clearing your cache.
Or try one of the ics ROMs from the development section

I was having that problem the first 2 days of stock Rooted ICS. Oddly, the problem stopped on it's own without the need for further action :/

Well i know with my hd2 that the rom free space was a problem...i had 77mb free with gb and 6mb with ics...so i uninstalled all the apps i wasn't using with titanium and gained 100mb extra...so the rom has room to do it's thing...we'll see if this works...

same here - time "changes" throughout the day
I had the same problem.
OK here's my scenario, I rooted once I upgraded from the kies ics update via the stock root on GalaxyS2Root.com and then had these problems, I then get (very) angry and decided to try it a different way, so I un-rooted, still having hang then fast restart with buttons lit up. So after I put stock ics on there I did a factory reset in stock recovery, then re-rooted now it's Ok, even though the wifi strength is horrific on the stock ics regardless (anyone else having this problem?). But this permanently fixed my problem. Hope this helped!
P.S. - I froze almost all of the stock bloatware with titanium backup as well still works great!
So I'm running cm7 with nyan kernel and when I type on my keyboard it sometimes misses a character. Is this kernel related would flashing another kernel fix it? I remember this was a problem back on froyo and there was the flashable zips to fix it but I haven't seen anything like that in a while.
Also, I restored a backup of my swype keyboard (the blue one from most of the tw themes) and it works perfectly, but everytime I reboot I get all these FC's on it and it doesn't go away until I restore "app only" in tb. Its not that big of a problem but its annoying. Is there any way to get rid of that? I believe it also is a cm7 related issue since it didn't happen to me on tw or cm9.

I've had a similar problem with CM9 Nightly on Nyan ICS. Once I unrooted back to stock using ODIN and rooted again (clean install) with the same ROM, with a different kernel this time, my keyboard seemed to run smooth.
My keyboards problem was it would disappear outta the blue.. I had to exit out of my messaging app completely, sometimes even thatt wouldn't do it.
Hope that helps somehow!

I currently went back to tpr so if I go back I will try to flash a different kernel cuz I was also using nyan kernel so maybe that would help. Thanks.

Good ROM. Welcome anytime, Let me know how that goes.

Why are some ROMs almost a GB and others only a couple hundred MB?? I noticed that the ones that are almost GB install flawlessly on my Boost Mobile GS3. I flashed the MD4 firmware with the Boost modem and installed Liquid JB 2.9 and right away the keyboard kept crashing over and over and it just seemed to be running right. Didnt feel as smooth as stock, midnight, or MOAR. Tried deleting the first part of the updater file and installed Super Nexus but partially bricked immediately. Wouldn't go past the second splash screen. Been resesrching like crazy but can't seem to find an answer to all this madness. Any light shedding would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Most touchwiz ROMs are 1GB due to added features and aosp ROMs are smaller because they are clean and not bloated
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Why am I having trouble installing the smaller ROMs? Is it because I possibly have an ICS bootloader. Read that certain GS3s running 4.1.2 may still have ICS bootloaders. Any way to change it to JB? Sorry for all the questions, I just like to be clear on all I do.

Well, I figured out what the problem was. Silly that I didn't think of it before. I was using the Android 4.3 GApps. It kept making the keyboard crash and I also had noticed that it didn't bring up the new owner menu or whatever it is. I'm curently on CM 10.1.2, but I'm about to go to CM 10.1.3. BTW, I love CM 10.1.2. It's ridiculously fast compared to the other ROMs I've used. Love it!!!
