240 and your market will work fine as well.

LCD, LED screen are optimized for a single resolution, unlike CRTs where pixels are created dynamically depending upon fps, MHz etc. Here pixels are fixed, changing the dpi is basically increasing /reducing pixels at software level which gets implemented at hardware level where number of pixels are fixed. thus blur picture.
that sharp and crisp display wont be there if you chance your dpi, you might wanna reduce/increase font size.

Yes I understand this. If there were a "tiny" font size that would do. But small is too large.

There are many apps that cannot be downloaded on 280 . one of them is franco's app .

LCD, CRT, MHz, what are you going on about?
OP, try a custom tablet ROM if you want low dpi. Paranoidandroid is popular.

Yep, I forgot it nevertheless 241 have this issue as well though I had followed steps in rom control ? Any idea ? or it was aokp's problem ? Some apps need to be switched to default dpi to update or install, completely inconvenient

[Q] Rom toolbox dpi issue

Does anyone have any idea how to fix apps that look like this?
I used rom toolbox to edit buildprop dpi and it worked flawlessly on stock lk8.
Also wanted to just inform that my battery life is ridiculous after editing cpu adjustments in rom toolbox as well. If anyone wants my settings used for cpu in rom toolbox just ask.
I attached an image of what the camera app is doing as well as my battery life so far.
+edit+ so after work I was able to evaluate which apps don't show correctly and here's what ive found so far....phone and camera display are a little off but theyre both completely viewable ++
Still trying to figure out how to fix this

Heres 2 more screenshots of misbehaving apps...as of now its only camera, dialer, amd mutiwindow that looks off but multiwindow apps function normal when opened. Also the samsung keyboard forcecloses so I disabled that and use swype with no issues due to dpi change

I saw this and since he doesnt have a device and hasnt done anything really with lk8 I thought.id give it a shot and see what I could get going only thing is I pmed KBizzle from the Paranoid thread and he says it appears the framework isnt built for such a low dpi. So ill keep diving into it and see what I can come up with for a reasonable solution

[ROM][V20F][AT&T][P93x][NitroTNT v2.2] Stock-modified ICS [07-23-2013][UPDATE]

AT&T V20F NitroTNT Version 2.2​
Based on V20F from HO!NO! (Thanks for all your work) and added Wind Kernel 3.7 ICS.
Additional thanks goes to mattman86, lyfkevin & kronicskillz whose work is also in this.
I made this with the intention making it as close to what AT&T would have done (without the bloat), plus make general improvements to the entire stock experience. One of the things I wanted to address was what some people have referred to as "LAG". I think I have addressed this nicely as version 2 has no perceivable lag. I also wanted to start addressing some of the ugliness (thank you mpsantiago) by restyling the icons to something I find more appealing. I look forward to everyone's feedback.
Status Bar icon changes:
KronicUI Mod....thank you Kronicskillz.....
4G and 4G lte icons made smaller (stock ICS had them way too big)
If you prefer the original system bar icons and theme download the attachment below
In future versions I intend to work on the cosmetics of things like the dialer app.

Thank you, no real development here just lots of experimenting and tweaking. I started this little project because I was never 100% happy with any of the stock versions out there and so this is the end result. Great battery life sleeps very deeply averages about 3% in 10 hrs at idle plus I also tweaked the GPS config file to eliminate my lock issues.

To port just take the /system/etc/WiFi contents from an su640 stock ICS ROM along with the boot.img file from the su640 version of wind kernel v3.x and it should boot and run just fine on an su640.

Looks great! just had to tell u this is the exact setup (- your icon/ status bar work) that I have been using since hono's release; even down to the launcher, Google now, wind, etc etc. Great minds think alike eh? Pretty much as close as we can get to a stock lg jellybean rom. That being said I haven't flashed but can pretty safely assume nitrotnt is crazy fast, incredibly stable, and one of the best roms for battery life available. I'm working on a similar cm10.1 based version now until WiFi is fixed on the official jb leak.
Edit: what app do you recommend for overclocking? Specifically the GPU both 2/3d. Also settings like ksm, zram, schedulers etc for best performance? I like to play around to find the best setups for performance, gaming, battery life, heavy usage etc. Thanks again

In regards to an overclocking app I just use no frills as I have no desire to oc the GPU. With that being said you could probably use CPU tuner or something similar. Since it has wind kernel it shouldn't be a problem. In regard to other settings I use what lfkevin has recommended for the ICS version of wind kernel (intellidemand & row) even though for the cm10.1 version he recommends ondemand and cfq. What the differences are I don't know I am still a bit of a newbie. . In regards to zram. I remember HO!NO! a long time ago recommending to not change those settings, but that could have also been in regards to cm9. I hope this helps some. I really am not a developer I just can figure out how to tinker. Best of luck and I hope you enjoy this ROM.

i have a few comments... first of all nice work not bad at all.
2nd i noticed that it runs much smoother with apex launcher.
3rd fyi MHL is verified working on this rom. (due to based on stock nature)
4 is a request, is it possible to add circle with percentage battery icon and the blue data signal icon?, also is it possible to make bluetooth go grey instead of white when not in use, and make it slightly smaller?
not a huge deal but the white is a bit anoying, also would be nice to remove am/pm from status bar as it takes up room and almost nobody needs it
overall good work nice rom

Thank you for the comments. In regards to the launcher, the Optimus UI is just my personal preference but if you want to use Apex just freeze the Optimus launcher after you install Apex so it isn't using any system memory.
In regards to your request it would be as simple as replacing the systemui.apk from HO!NO!'s v20f since I used his ROM as a base for this. As far as the AM/PM that will require modifying XML files in the systemui.apk so that is going to take some more time to work through those. For the Bluetooth it would just be a simple PNG file swap, easy enough. So I will see about providing you a modified file for that. Who knows I even might like it better . Thank you again for the critique.

thanks man, one other thing i noticed is that poweramp is crashing, i haven't figured out if its rom related or not yet, if you feel like it you could install the poweramp trial and tell me if it crashes on your phone, thanks again.
i noticed the bluetooth thing right away cuz i leave mine perma on, since i use my bluetooth stereo in my car and i can't be bothered to turn it off and on every time, i also noticed that leaving it on doesn't consume much power (atleast i dont think it does).
---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 AM ----------
just to clarify i want the blue icons from CM cuz i use an all blue theme, icons, background etc, that's why i like the blue data/wifi/battery icons, if it's too much work to change them all though, or if other people dont want it, just don't worry about it i dont want to be too much trouble.
is there a way for me to just mod them on mine? ive never looked into it.
edit ----> i isolated the crash problem i think, it's happening to anything that uses sdcard, so i think my card needs a format.
- update, i can play media files off my sdcard with es file explorer, but not any media player that uses the system media scanner
- update i think the is the fault of an app i used that was suposed to rescan media.

i tried a bunch nothing fixing it so i'm going to do a full wipe and try again, i'm liking this rom though it has potential if i get it all working.
i got the crashing issue after formatting sdcard and full wipe and reinstall, something is amiss in the rom i think.

so the fix for this is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39845686&highlight=poweramp#post39845686
i believe, i no longer have the rom installed but i'm assuming thats it in case anyone else needs it. it's a flashable zip that removes some of the tweaks he did that cause some apps to crash like poweramp

I will have some free time Sunday, I think and will look at incorporating these changes. Never noticed the power amp issue because I don't use but I will try to duplicate. I will also install the fix to make sure it doesn't create other issues before I roll it out in an update. Thanks again for your feedback. I have been using this ROM 100% since I rolled it out and just love it. Just to give you an idea I have never run with a ROM longer than 2 weeks before installing something different and I have had this phone for over a year.

[Q] help with rootbox

I dont know if it is a bug but the dpi is way to small to use normally. I have changed the dpi settings to a higher dpi but with no luck. Everything is just very small and I am wondering if im just doing something wrong or if it is a bug because the rom is still not fully developed.

Ive had the v same issue, even clockwork recovery looks tiny.

Big problem samsung galaxy grand

My galaxy grand has a big screen issue. Its colour saturation has decreased a bit over time and now my colours on the screen do not look vibrant and saturated (Eg. Grass looks faded, sky and water also looks faded ). I have confirmed this problem by testing my phone with two more galaxy grands which I have at my home. I compared same pictures and wallpapers with all the three phones and their colours look a little bit more saturated and vibrant than my phone. The colour difference is small but is noticeable and that bugs me. Is this my phone's problem or does this jappen by using a phone too much over time?? Also I also advise you guys to compare your grands with other grands if you have any to compare your colours. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Which rom r u using ...? If u use stock touch wiz ....go to settings display untick..option like outdoor or powersaving.....like that ...., try it if its not work just flash stock rom ...via pc odin.....

Thanks for reply but this problem is there on all roms, cm and also touchwiz. I am right now on carbon but when i was in touchwiz i unticked those options but nothing happened. I also frequently flash stock rom before going to another rom but still nothing...

Try tweaking the colors with an app called Screen Adjuster...If tweaking the saturation doesn't work, then it might be some hardware problem...

I know about that hardware problem. It's present in every grand and gets cleared by reboot but my problem is different. The colours have generally become a little bit less saturated than a normal grand's screen. The difference is less but is noticeable when i compare same pictures. Nonetheless, thanks for the reply
