DPI change? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hi, why cant we change the dpi on any rooted rom? Every time I change the phone freezes. I changed through root explorer and rom toolbox. Same thing.
Is there something Samsung or Google did in 4.1? Because I have been changing dpi on all the phones I had before with no problem.

I can change my dpi just fine on my rom. Dagr8's roms biggest selling point is dpi changing. So its gotta be something on your end.

What rom are you on? Whatre you changing your dpi to? On any rom except for hybrid dpi of 160 causes system ui fc

Hmm i dunno what it could be. Im using my ported tmobile rom at 240 dpi with the samsung keyboard fix and multi dpi pack from dagr8s rom thread with amazing results. It could be something within that specific rom

Did you try directly edit the build.prop or using any app to change the density?
I had no issues at all from any Roms by directly changing the build.prop or using rom toolbox.
Is there a tutorial on how to edit the build prop?

Try rebooting your phone. I was trying it out last night on the codename rom, and the changes would not take effect until I rebooted the phone.

How to change DPI in build.prop?

I am running cm10, I switched from carbon ROM because I was getting a lot of RRs, and I like cm, but I miss being able to change the pixel density in the settings. So how do I change it in build.prop? Or even better is there a kernel that would add it to the settings?
Thanks!

Look for ro. sf.lcd_density=240 and change it to whatever you want. Rom toolbox and other applications can change it as well. Most of the roms out now have it a build in options in settings to change it just have to dig for it sometimes.

Don't forget to reboot after you change it or it will not take effect.
Yea it worked great thanks! What other cool tweaks are there that I can change in the build.prop?

Exactly. The only 4.2 ROMs are AOSP right now. So you get the lockscreen widgets, but lose multi window and wifi calling

Ok thanks so my last question is if I do find a rom I like it's there a way to switch between my stock touchwiz and a rom with 4.2 without always having to restart my phone and doing factory reset everytime?

thank you so much for all of ur help!!!!!
Just wanna want say dual boot is nice. Weird thing is when I put any aosp ROM on the second ROM, I always get a huge CPU usage. Switching the rom to primary, I do not get that problem.
