Dpi/playstore problem - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

So I have my gn2 set at 268 dpi which is fantastic. But there's lots of apps in the play store that I can't download because of my dpi. Does anyone know of a way I can get around this without changing my dpi back to 320 all the time? Thanks in advance.

You could also Google a multi-dpi play store

Screen DPI?

I downloaded an app that changes the screen dpi. I have it set to 180 dpi now. Can anything bad come out of doing this?
Is this a good dpi, or is there something better?

It can cause issues with Google play, some apps might give you an error saying the device isn't compatible.

But it wont cause any physical damage?
If you want to change DPI I recommend you try Paranoid Android. It's a pretty solid ICS rom and you change between phone, tablet, or a hybrid UI and change the DPI accordingly.

LCD Density app?

I'm on Jedi Mind Tricks ported rom. Anyone know of a compatible density app? Modder won't boot thus far. Any help or suggestions fam?

Download play store and framework from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1639213
Then use Rom Toolbox to change your lcd density.
I've never been able to boot after using lcd modder even with darkside.

Even better, use root explorer to open build.prop. scroll until you see the density: 240. Change it from there and save, reboot. Just keep in mind your phone may not boot regardless of how small of a difference you make so always nandroid first

I used ROM toolbox and it works like charm.. I set it to 200 and also play store will display apps incompatible , to fix this use LCD density modder and click on fix market issues and install it..then u r ready to go.

The initial play store screen shows only apps, magazines, and music.
Everything else seems to be fine.
I think what he means is that certain apps, in the store, will not show up as compatible for your phone based on the density you select. This is true even if your phone is actually compatible with it.
I used texdroider dpi worked good with jmt

Samsung keyboard and 240 density issues

When I bumped my density down to 240 the Samsung keyboard keeps crashing. Anyway of getting it to work? I use the pen writing option a lot and won't get that with a third party keyboard. But 320 density is a bit too big for me

Worked for me to, ,but when you get away from a stock density (180, 240 and 320) it trends to break the compatibility of market apps. I'll have to see what happens

[Q] per app DPI help

Hi everyone,
I've been using the latest slimbean for my note 2 n7105 but have had force closes on my navigon Australia app. It happens when it tries to load the actual map screen. I think the problem is to do with the resolution of the rom. Could I use xposed framework to change the dpi setting just for this app?
I love slimbean but I can't stick with it if I can't get Navigon running.
Thanks,
Sam.
Yes you should be able to

How? Wanam xposed works only with 4.3...
I run 4.1.2, is there any solution for me maybe?
Thanks in advance.
App setting module for Xposed framework. I use 280dpi, set some incomptible apps back to 320. All work!
