[Q] [ICS] com.android.phone crashing after changing DPI - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

I'm currently using AOSP ICS Final 1 by Maclaw and it works like a charm.
But when I change the DPI from 160 to 120, everytime I try to call someone or someone tries to call me, I get the message "Unfortunately, com.android.phone has stopped".
I've searched the internet for solutions, but none of them worked for me.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this bug?

Get a phone.apk that is made for 120 dpi resolution , push it to system and set permissions , reboot. That should do the trick. But weird, it works for me without changing phone.apk , also 120 dpi. Did you change it from a program or from build.prop directly ?

I changed it in build.prop, with the app called "build.prop editor".
I've tried it again, without changing phone.apk, but then it keeps giving me this message..
And as I mentioned, I searched the internet for solutions but none of them worked for me, including the "replace the phone.apk with a 120 dpi one".
That gave an error that was something like "Voice call is not available" or something..

Froyo contacts

Hi,
Was wondering is the standard froyo contacts doesn't list all the alphabetical letters on the right hand side? From all the froyo release so far I see the right side list missing letters : B, E,H, K, N, Q,T,W
Can we someone enable these characters again? I can live without these characters but it's just annoying...
Having the same issue here too...
And pressing the back softkey after playing a song in Music Player also causes some letters to disappear.
same issue in my sgs...strange
Yes, mine too (JPO).
The letters missing: G, H, O P
Wow, I got JPO as well..... hmmm seems the letters appears based on something. I did remember awhile ago, some letters start appearing.
It can't be by contacts, cos I got google contacts that have "b" in it but it still doesn't show the letter.
i flashed from jm1 to jpa. maybe this is the problem?
lost: GHOPX
for me it seems that if a letter has little contacts it doesnt show, and the next letter after it also dissapears..
any1 can confirm?
It's a feature. It's meant to enable users to quickly browse through their contacts. Yes, it sounds rather strange but what they intended was that you don't waste your time trying to get the the correct letter (particularly those with larger fingers) but rather in an approximate area in which you can therefore thumb up or down to the right contact.
In some ways it works, in other ways it can be annoying.
It's because of size of the fonts and the size of the top search box. There is no space for all the letters to be shown. Set lcd density to 200 and you'll see the magic.
For set lcd density to 200 have you used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=762070

where i can change this value?
You can use that app or you can change it manually by changing build.prop ro.sf.lcd_density setting to 200. Be careful with this because TW doesn't work with setting below 200. Make backup first an enable debugging so you can revert through the adb. Read all about it first in the forums!!!
yikes lcd density at 200 makes everything looks aweful......is there any other way to get it to show all the alphabet just like in eclair?
thats really strange, didnt notice though.
although it can be shown by changing the lcd density to 200, but all other application becomes not full screen, it is not the perfect solution, someone please kindly make a study on this issue, it seems caused by the inproper layout parameter of contacts resource.
I guess eclair didnt have the edit box for "search" taking up space....now in froyo with the new search box, theres lesser room!
very annoying really though Don't want to change the LCD density as it screws up other apps.

You can fix the other apps with spareparts app from the market. Compatibility mode option should be unchecked.
Tw can be replaced with the adw or launcher pro. The dialer and calculator are not in full screen view only.
Like I said , read all about it in the forums.
I personaly like the lcd tweak very much because of a larger resolution effect. You get more space on the display for icons and widgets and you can see more stuff in apps without scrolling.

modify phone.apk?

Does anyone know how to modify phone.apk to make it display the keypad every time i press Phone.
Sometimes it shows the call log now
I think it's related with phone.apk rather than Twlauncher.
you are probably right , i'll edit the 1st post.

[Q] T989 DPI question for 200 and 240

I know that 240 dpi is 800x480 in the phone default settings
Changing it to 200 dpi makes the resolution higher, but I wanted to know an exact number.
I set my resolution to 200 dpi in this ROM. Is there any way that I can find out the exact resolution number for this dpi? The reason I ask is because I am trying to install iGo and knowing my resolution helps.
edit: is there any file in the system that I can find with Root Explorer that will show the resolution number to me?

I don't have that ROM in particular, but typically this involves installing a new dialer app and selecting it. The selection is either done by a pop up when you start the dialer and selecting to always user the new app, or sometimes you have to go and change app associations in the settings.
Happy hunting.

Amending DPI On Device...

Well heres one for the books.
I set my DPi to 400 on the device. Went to put it into power saving mode and it changed the screen density to HD which is fine.
However with the Small condensed option selected under display, it now prevents ANY system modifications to the DPI settings which is actually insane! :/
Any ideas on a work around? Im rooted and even amending the Build.prop and using an app seems to kill getting a lower DPI settting
This is a known issue. You have to use adb shell wm density XXX, and avoid changing resolution in the future.
Yeah but when setting up the device you have to choose either Small or Large Condensed Text :/
I'm not sure what problem you're having. I had my content scaling set to small, and text size set to small/very small (can't remember), and just did an adb shell & wm density 520 without a problem.
Same thing happening to me. I tried to change it via build.prop and by the adb shell command. Still at 640.
can someone tell me what the STOCK DPI values are for "standard" and "condensed" mode? (it can be checked with DPI Checker from play store)
