OK, I used LCDDensity from the Play Store to change my LCD Density to 280. It didn't seem to work, so I gave up and set it back to 320. Everything looked fine until I opened my keyboard. Here's a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/U7o4R.png
As you can see, the right side of the keyboard is just a bit off screen. I installed SwiftKey in hopes it was just an issue with the TouchWiz keyboard, but no.
Also, as you can see in the scvreenshot, the build.prop is in fact set to 320...What can I do to fix this?
Thanks for your help.
Just manually edit your build.prop to restore density.
Did you reboot after your latest changes?
Wipe out all traces of that LCDdensity app too.

Sure is, theres a few apps in the store. Just search for "lcd density." Or, if your running an AOSP ROM, there are usually settings for that under settings.

should've been more specific... An lcd density changer that works on the DINC... The ones that came out with search didn't work
I've used the app lcd density or changer or whatever and it works great for me

That's what happened to me. Sorry I suggested that lol. I would recommend an AOSP rom then. One I liked was LithiumMod.

You can just go into build.prop and change it yourself
The line i believe is ro.sf.lcd_density = ___ And put what you want in.
I'm running CM7 on my r800i and getting this message with some apps.
Any ideas how to sort it?

Are you using a custom LCD Density? If so you will need to change LCD Density back to stock (240 I believe), then go into recovery, wipe cache, then reboot, then wipe market data from within the manage applications in settings, then go to market and download away!
EDIT- After you download an app, you can change back to your custom LCD Density if you wish. So far I have been able to download apps even with the custom LCD Density, but i havent done a rebbot since, so not sure if the will mess it up again or not.
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.

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..

...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

No, no custom themes or any build.prop edits. But, could this be caused or fixed by a build.prop edit?

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?

Your problem is actually the DPI.I think you lowered it.As far as I know Note 2's Density is 267,change back to that value

Build. Prop editor.

Flash MiniTab rom. It's full note 10.1 rom, and it's really awesome!
Worked out? On paranoid it was easy to adjust dpi settings, phablet; tablet mode etc.. but never saw dpi settings on touchwiz so thats why just flashing stock seemed a good solution.

If your phone is rooted, download es explorer, click on the favorites then go to root/system and open built.prop with e's editor and scroll down to
ro.sf.lcd_density=xxx
And change the xxx to default which is 320. Then exit and reboot.

Thanks for the replies, I tried an app from the playstore to change the dpi but the samsung keyboard just kept crashing every 5 seconds.
Is the above method better or will the same thing happen?
The Samsung keyboard will keep crashing until you set the DPI back to 320. I believe anything lower than 280 causes the Samsung keyboard to crash. You might have to install a new keyboard from the play store or something if you don't have one so you can actually edit the build.prop file.
Just a note, if you go about editing the DPI from the build.prop, the value is actually in there twice so you'll have to change both lines in order for it to work.
