[MOD] 240 DPI apps for samsung roms [updated 7/12/12] - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Regular Disclaimer: Flash it at your own risk​
I have spent hours to work this out without a device in hand ,if you find my work useful consider a donation
I have been making some mods to scale all samsung apps @240 dpi for a while on international s3. Now with requests from sprint s3 users im posting these mods here which are made separately for sprint s3 users. All these mods are universal , so you can flash it over almost all deodexed roms.
A big thanks to @nerys71, its because of him i started working for sprint s3 dpi mods
Apps included in the package(based on lj7 rom)
*camera
*calculator
*dialer
*popupbrowser
Instructions
1.Backup the above mentioned apps if needed.
2.Enter CWM and flash the zip.(Only CWM!!)
3.Enjoy!

Killer mod! finally full 240dpi is realized! if/until he gets the keyboard fixed trust me just install the 4.2 keyboard its far superior anyway
Some screenies of the finished results
If you have messed with DPI you will have noticed some apps (notably the stock OEM apps) don't "scale" they are fixed size so they either FC or they display out of scale. Like the dialer

4.2 APPS
First these are NOT APPS. these are ... bala what do you call them?.... they "MODIFY" an existing file. only certain built in S3 "samsung" apps don't scale. These files "edit" those files so they scale and display properly at 240dpi. This is why you need to be on a STOCK Deodexed LJ7 S3 Sprint Rom. (or a rom based on that)
NO NEED so far all 4.2 apps I have tried all "scale" so they function PROPERLY at either DPI

Here are the Pop Up Browser (if anyone can find where I got this and provide a link for credit to whoever made it available??) I can't find it but this is the version that works with the S3 Sprint and Bala's mod.
and here is the 4.2 keyboard (don't even mess with the samsung keyboard it blows chunks next to the 4.2 keyboard and it scales properly at 240dpi
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/53179796/LatinImeGoogle_signed.apk
the POP UP flash from CWM the keyboard you can simply install like any other apk directly. then goto menu settings language and "enable" it and it will then be selectable as a keyboard.
the swype keyboard built into the S3 also works at 240dpi but it does not enter spaces in the web browser for some reason ??

OK so you only use this if you previously tinkered with the dpi ?and this fixes it?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

if you switch your S3 to 240dpi everything gets smaller. its like upping the resolution on your computer but in this case we are "scaling down" the size of the UI.
if you wish to STAY at 240dpi you will note some apps don't DISPLAY properly. this "fixed" those apps so they display properly at 240dpi.
if you plan to stay at 320 DPI (stock) do NOT install this

Great Work!
Good Work!!!
Im working on doing something similar for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2.

Cwm? Seriously
Samsung Galaxy S III

I installed this mod on the Jelleybomb rom which is based in LJ7 and the camera force closes, anybody?

Are you running at 240DPI?
《Samsung rom》

Bala_gamer can probably answer better but for whatever reason TWRP refuses to "flash" these files. it goes through the motions but does not actually "do" anything.
other recoveries might work. TRY IT and report back if it works. if it don't work odin CWM and try it. when done odin back your preferred recovery or however you install it.

I am using this plus the keyboard and launcher from your international thread and been working fine. There are several apps that I would like to rework and have no idea what you are doing to fix these apps. If it is one or two lobe changes in the apks to make them work I would be glad to do it myself otherwise I need your help. This list is apps I noticed that need adjusting and I am sure it will take a lot of time and effort but I think it will pay off if we can keep using this psych method so when the Roms are updated we can just run the zips... hopefully
Photo Editor - almost unusable as the changes you make aren't aligned with what it appears.
Video Editor - black extra space
MMS app - chat bubbles don't get wide enough
Google Now - Card and search width not wide enough
Navigation - narrow here and top icons cut off. Maps part is fine, just the initial screen is off.
Within apps like Talk and MMS when you click a contact icon the Contact pop-up is too small. Is this a global setting?
My goal is to have 100% 240dpi support but I know that will take a lot of time. If you can explain what to look for and a tutorial how to port stuff to 240dpi, I would be glad to do what I could myself. Thanks to you I did manage to fix the talk bug on the Sprint variant. Thanks again

Thank You X1000000000000000 for this! Seriously, this is awesome. Everything finally looks like it should in 240!
Most definitely worth the flash to CWM!
Guys to make life simple; to get CWM just go to the play store, search for and install ROM Manager. Open it, click flash CWM select the SIII and done! No Odin needed! Takes around 2 minutes. Painless and it is worth it.
Thank you again!

YES Lj7 is what I am running.

Whoops I was sleepy, I was thinking multiview not the pop up browser... lol
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

we don't have multiview working on the sprint S3 yet (I think they got it ported on the International S3's but it will not work on the sprint S3) it has to be ported sprint to sprint AFAIK.
if you have multi view working on the S3 please provide the link for where you got the files and how you installed it if its not clear.

do you guys want 240 dpi clockpackage?

[APP][MOD] TouchWizGTG Launcher (19/4/11 - Source/Modified files posted)

Click here for source / modified files
This is a modified, awesomer version of the Froyo TouchWiz launcher.
---The end has come (15/2)---
I have some bad news for you guys. I was waiting for a new Captivate Froyo release because the Captivate version of TouchWiz has more features and would be a better base to build upon. I thought the Captivate would get the update in December or January and I would have a new version of TouchWizGTG out by now, but Samsung USA and AT&T still haven't released the update. Worse news... I got tired of waiting for updates and a stable build of CyanogenMod, so I bought a Desire HD today. I'm sort of a sucker for HTC Sense. Sorry for the letdown. So long Galaxy S. Your gorgeous Super AMOLED screen will be missed. Your GPS will not.
Anyone and everyone has permission to pick up the project. I will try to put together all of my modified files and post them sometime in the next few days.
---Vote now! (21/12)---
So here's the deal. I'm considering creating a new version of TouchWizGTG (with JPX TW launcher or newer as a base) sometime in the next three weeks since I'll be on vacation. HOWEVER, I will NOT be creating a million different versions to please everyone this time. Sorry, but creating all of those different versions and testing each one for each release was extremely tedious and it made me lose interest in the project.
Go here and vote on your favorite feature set. I will create the TWO that have the most votes plus one of my choosing if it's different than the other two.
---Update (9/11)---
-Due to demand, I am posting variations of the new dock version with 16-bit mode disabled and landscape mode disabled. As a refresher, 16-bit disabled versions sacrifice speed for slightly better image quality.
---Update---
-Due to demand, I am posting versions that have the colored icon backdrops in the app drawer. Apparently some people like those ugly things.
---New in v1.1.1 (30/10)---
-Updated international language files (there is no need to update if you use English)
---New in v1.1 (30/10)---
-Smoother fly-out animation when leaving app drawer
-New version with redesigned 5-icon dock! (screenshots further down in post)
-No more 16-bit disabled version... everyone seemed to prefer the speed improvements of the enabled version
---Features---
-Landscape mode (270° rotation)
-Transparent app drawer background and no icon backdrops
-New fly-in effect for app drawer icons
-Ability to set the default home screen location
-Ability to sort the app drawer alphabetically
-Galaxy Tab specific code removed to reduce app size
-Enabled 16-bit mode for faster/smoother animations

Click to collapse
Installation (If you're a noob, I recommend using Root Explorer. If you're not, you probably don't need this installation guide.)
1. In /system/app, rename the default TouchWiz30Launcher.apk and TouchWiz30Launcher.odex (if applicable) to TouchWiz30Launcher.apk.bak and TouchWiz30Launcher.odex.bak.
2. Copy this new TouchWiz30Launcher.apk into /system/app.
3. Set permissions of the new TouchWiz30Launcher.apk to rw-r--r--. You can probably get by without doing this. Haven't tried it.
4. Important! If you are installing the new dock version you must clear launcher data to unhide the apps that were in your dock previously. Go to Settings > Applications > Manage applications > Running > com.sec.android.app.twlauncher and then force stop, clear data, and press home. If you don't see com.sec.android.app.twlauncher, look for TwGTGLauncher.
Works nice for me tnx!
Only thing i noticed ... not all buttons in the dock were translated ...
good job there
Thanks. Worked on my phone I always wanted to have the landscape mode like the Epic, and the new app drawer is pretty cool.
Does this happen to work on the s variants also? I have a vibrant and world love this

Amazing!
Looking at the AndroidManifest.xml, did you edit it or why does it look different from the ones I know. I ask because editing the AndroidManifest.xml in TWLauncher produced some strange problems for me.
Btw, your launcher works great
Nice mod. Tried both enabled and disabled... as an end-user both appear same from the outside.
Works smoothly, and really wanted that transparent app-drawer! Thanks!
PS: No need for changing permissions.
YEESSS a very great mod for the galaxy S... works very nice !!
thanks for your job
awesome work
smooth like baby's butt on stock JPM + optimize kernel
Very good thanks

The AndroidManifest.xml looks different than the ones you know because it's not from a Galaxy S.
I can't find my TouchWiz30.apk thing?
Where do I place those things?
This is a great mod
Just installed on Doc_Kalpik Froyo JP6/JPM V6 rom. Tried both versions, they both work great, but much prefer the "enabled" version. Swiping between panels is very smooth, transparency is great as is the landscape mode. Phone feels so much faster ( did not need to change permissions ).
This is great, works very smooth. But I can't manage to change the default home screen. How can I do that?
You propably have to edit your default.prop (can be any of the .props)
you can then specify the default screen with the line
ro.csc.homescreen.defaultscreen=2
whereas 2 would be homescreen number 3.

Shouldn't need to do any default.prop editing. Just grab the screen with the home icon and drag it to where you want your default screen to be.
hi great mod but you know i kinda like the icon backdrops any chance of an option to keep those in?
look nice .
Applied this using ES File Explorer, mounted as root in app settings, JP6 stock. No permission set was neccesary.
Awesome work, looks and feels amazing!

[MOD] CyanogenMod9 Tablet UI

THIS MOD IS DISCONTINUED! AS I HAVE SOLD MY SGS2, I WON'T SUPPORT ANY NEW UPDATES!
IF SOMEONE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE THE WORK, PLEASE MAKE A NEW THREAD! THANK YOU!
Hello,
Since ICS was launched and it's available for smartphones and tablets I was wondering if the ICS's Tablet UI would be available for smartphones.
This is the Tablet UI for Samsung Galaxy S2.

After you install this, your phone will become a 4.3" tablet.
Video (thanks to roadkill33)
Bugs:
Well, I can't tell anything about this mod's stability. It may give you Force Closes on some apps. However, I haven't encountered any problems until now except the fact that this will modify your screen density to 120 and the text is barely visible. You should find a bigger font or you can set the Huge font size from settings.
Please tell me if you found any other bugs.
Requirements:
You will need the latest CyanogenMod9 to install this.
How to install:
Put the zip on the sdcard and flash it using CWM.
Credits:
All the credits go to AndroidON. I only modified some files to get this working on the Galaxy S2. Original thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1483221
USE THE MOD AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Download links:
This one is for CyanogenMod9 builds before 3rd March!
For builds after 3rd March use the attached zip (thanks Tyrany)!
Download Link 1
Download Link 2
Stock UI:
If you want to get back the stock UI, just change your phone's screen density to 240dpi. You can use an app to do this, I recommend LCD Density Modder.

Phone call working in tablet mode?
Yes, it works. The phone.apk & contacts.apk are included in the zip.
Here works too hehehe only experiencing a glitch when back to 240 and then 120 on the notification drawer the clock stays over the date
Sent from my home
I flashed this!
My phone didn't become an 4,3" tablet.
Thanks
Thanks for this one..
personally, I prefer the tablet UI to the phone one.
Everything seems to work really well. (except for minor graphical glitches)
i can make and recieve calls without any issues.
Been using it for three days now.
However like someone mentioned earlier the dates and the time on the notification bar overlap.
Any idea how to fix this?
maybe you could point me in the right direction or something?
Once again, many thanks for this brilliant mod.
Does this work with miui v4 which is cm9 base?

is it possible to use higher dpi and keep the tablet UI ???
I know that Tablet UI is supported with a maximum of 142dpi. However, using this mod, if you change to any other value higher than 120dpi it will come back to the Stock ICS UI. I don't really know why but I'm looking for a solution.
L.E.: Can't get this working on XXLPH as it's full of Samsung things that I need to edit and if I would do it, it would become more a Custom ROM than a Mod ^^.

thx! Im now using 128 dpi which is maximum to keep Tablet UI.
anyway look forward to a solution to have higher dpi
I found that the calendar app will not be Tablet UI if dpi higher than 124.

[AOSPA - 4.2.2] PARANOIDANDROID 3.68 (HALO) [Toroplus] 18-JUL-2013

}
Work in Progress
Before you go any further, 4.2 still has a quite a few bugs that need to be resolved by Google.
Please make sure you have backups for anything you don't want to lose.
Google apps are not official, this is a community hack, we have tested all apps but you could still encounter issues.
This is still a work in progress. we are working hard to tame 4.2, which brought significant changes and bugs.
Do not ask about CyanogenMod features. We will add more features in version 3.x, when we have a 100% stable base.
Installation
Update your recovery to the latest version. Pre 4.2 recoveries can mess up your sd card/storage. We recommend TWRP.
Download pa google apps: http://d-h.st/Do8 Updated 15-JUL-2013
Download rom: http://d-h.st/N7z Updated 18-JUL-2013
Follow PA on Google+ for changes and other info
Perform a factory reset in recovery, unless you are already on PA 2.99+
Flash ROM first, then gapps
Wipe dalvik & cache
Reboot and wait, first bootup can take up to 5 minutes, it will also restart once
Enter your Google account info, press home when you encounter the black screen
After the quirky bootup (thanks to aosp) is over, the rom should work normally
Do not restore system apps, system data and Google apps. This can cause bootloops and other problems due to mismatches from CM to AOSP and Android version 4.1.2 to 4.2.x
Previous jellybean versions: toroplus
Features
Hybrid engine ported, Per App DPI and Per App Layout
Tablet UI back from the dead
Per app color
Quicksettings -> Quicktoggles (first draft, more to follow)
New recents implementation
We fixed the aosp lag in the recents view, well, most of it
New SystemUI Icons that can cope with transparent bars, thanks go to John Xionidis
See through Lockscreen is back
Transparent bars + Launcher2 modified to cope with it
4.2 Walls and Sounds
Google stock apps
Extended Desktop
PER-APP-DPI/LAYOUT
This is not tablet mode! Hybrid engine allows you to target apps individually. You get to pick their actual layouts which can tranform content drastically. Keep in mind, this has nothing to do with build.prop hacks or DPI changes. We list all layouts an app brings, you choose one, its as easy as that. It does not matter if your device runs itself in Phone-, Phablet or Tablet-UI, your apps will always look as you like. On top of that you can scale apps, to fit your screen, that way you can even bring full fledged tablet apps and make them run perfectly. Nothing will break, nothing will shrink, your market will be fine. Additionally we have rewritten many parts of the android framework and fixed countless of AOSP bugs to make way for these modifications - our "tablet mode" runs better on a phone than on a real tablet, that is guaranteed.
PER-APP-COLOR
ParanoidAndroid's newest invention. Define apps in your regular hybrid panel. See your phone fade into the color definition of your current app, press home or go elsewhere and it fades back. Create as many combinations you like, you can even dabble with opacity. This feature is made possible by our hybrid engine, which is unique to this rom.

New option: "large" to trick an app thinking the device has a real big screen. some need it, like amazon kindle to jump into tabUI. some even react on it, gdrive will slightly adapt its layout - makes only sense if you give it a small dpi though.
The algorithm to extract the actual layout containers from apk files works more precise and can reveal more than before. there will still be a few apps left who do that layout stuff in java - we will add an override button for that, but in the meantime you can edit /system/etc/paranoid/properties.conf .layout=360 for phone-like UI, 600 for phablet, 720 = tablet, 1280 = super huge tablet

You know what annoys me about this ROM? All the customizability! I am spending a lot of time getting everything where I like it and I love it. Noticed on other ROMs that allow me to hide the nav buttons that most games would screw up their orientation when I did hide the nav buttons so it was largely an unusable feature. But not on Paranoid! Really nice to play Max Payne is FULL full screen And again, thanks for sticking with the CM kernel.
EDIT: Only feature I yearn for is the ability to disable lock screen rotation.
Nice, getting this now. This is a great rom.
do we insatal the hybrid or the 201205211 gapps or both ?, also any ideas when horizontal cali might be fixed / added?

Hybrid.
Anyone know how to scale the lock screen? A couple of my shortcuts are cut off at the bottom. Its not a huge deal, only cosmetic but I'd like to get it right if I could.
Edit...
Nevermind, I figured it out. I just needed to adjust the framework dpi.

its on the todo list... will do it asap. as of now its crashing @240dpi right?
yep crashes outright and nasty it really don't like 240dpi I will have screen shots up shortly.
OK 240dpi is the way the Note II should have been shipped. you folks running Note II's no your not. your not running a Note II till you goto 240dpi and see the amazing difference in makes (unless you have soso eyesight then you might want to stay at 320 dpi but com eon 5.5" display !!!)
but alas some of the SAMSUNG specific phone apps are designed FOR this phone so there is no reason for samsung to make them "scalable" (lazy bums
so Bala_Gamer figured out how to "alter" them to display properly at 240dpi (which makes them prettier more usable and in some cases usable at all since some apps crash outright) these mods "fix" them so they work right and look right.
I am LOVING it.
Ok Screenies of everything but the dialer (I seem to have misplaced my dialer since installing exdialer .... using the S3 Dialer pics for now (its identical)

Yup, like nerys71 said, it just FCs over and over again. It would be a huge win if you got that working -- it's the only way to use handwriting input.
Ok I do but have cwm.. any chance of getting one that works with twrp?

I went to 240 and didn't like that I had to use swype so I went back.

Personally I haven't tried it with TWRP, but I have heard there is some workaround /method to flash vrtheme based zips via TWRP.

I'd do it but how do I get it to show the folders? I'm using 7-zip and it's not showing the folders inside
winrar opens the zip fine. there are two root folders. META-INF and mode
there is a zipalign file in the mode folder
I have ZERO skill at this so DO NOT apply this without a backup I may have done it wrong and may screw your phone !!! remember its a $700 phone
I unzipped it replaced the zipalign file and then zipped it back up again. I am assuming its that simple? (bala?)
try it and see what happens in twrp
All you have to do is replace the zipalign. I have been doing this to flash gsm note 2 mods constantly.

sweet - now I can go back to twrp the new touch CWM is "ok" but still not as nice as TWRP for easy to use UI
now does modding this for twrp "break" it for CWM or any others ?

Indeed thank you for posting. Wanted to say not a full day yet but so far so good.
It's always nice to try something new out now and then. This ROM included VVM
which for a CM hybrid or any CM based ROM is a first for me. It works too!
USB OTG works somewhat. Plugged in one usb stick and said it was damaged.
Different phone with TW no issue with the same usb stick. Haven't tested MHL yet.
So far battery life has been above my expectation. Still need to reformat
my ext. SD and give a week and see how battery goes. Again thanks for posting :good:

Ran this for the last few days. For the most part, it's been very nice but I have run into a few things. Mainly it seems when running certain games or when connected to my car via bluetooth for music playback it will just completely freeze. The audio will still play but the screen freezes and I cannot back, hit home or long press home to kill it. Because of how much I have to be in the car I am switching back to plain CM 10.2 for now but will be watching and testing this going forward. Thanks for the hard work and really excited for what this might end up as

Looks great I was hoping for a flashing weekend.
Not yet. Sorry. I did wipe and return to stock then flashed plain cm 10.1. I wiped again and reflashed this back over that and everything seems much better if not near perfect now though. It may have been something weird with coming back from a 4.3 ROM to 4.2.2(even though I always wipe and go from scratch.

This seems to be a problem I also have. Flashing stock, CM 10.1 and again Chameleon. Being a few days now,
has it seemed to help any or has the freezing come back? Curious because I would never have thought to do that.
Though I know rom's sometimes need to be flashed a certain way. Any feedback would be great.
Other than this issue I have been getting pretty good battery life. Call quality is good. Overall it's a pretty good rom.
