I dont know if it is a bug but the dpi is way to small to use normally. I have changed the dpi settings to a higher dpi but with no luck. Everything is just very small and I am wondering if im just doing something wrong or if it is a bug because the rom is still not fully developed.
Ive had the v same issue, even clockwork recovery looks tiny.

Hi everyone,
I'm using lcd destiny changer on Cyanogen 6.1.1. I like it to be set on 200.
Now i was using a sense rom this day and when i set lcd destiny changer on 200 sense is not really handle that very well.
Is there something i can do about it or is it just not working well with a sense rom??
There's nothing that can be done. That's the main reason why I didn't use sense anymore, I love my 190 density too much.
I don't know man, the screen destiny is set to be a phone screen forever....
Been there, faced that! Never tried a Sense based ROM again because of this since I am way too much habituated with a LCD Density of 180/190!
You could try a different launcher on your Sense ROM but then that would defeat the whole purpose of using Sense right ?
Yeah, so i'm back on CM6.1.1
Hope CM 7 will work for me soon...

There is an option somewhere about application compatibility mode. Make sure it is unchecked. I don't recall where the option is though.
^^Spare Parts!
Compatibility Mode needs to be off in Spare Parts!
People sense is diffrent. Even if you change the density the rosie.apk will not look good. It will look good with other launchers on the market.

Hello all,
I want to change the dpi setting, currently at 240dpi on CM7, how can I go about it?
Thanks ahead for any suggestions

Sorry bad post mate (this)

u have to edit build.prop in the System directory. when u open build.prop in text editor, u will see "ro.sf.lcd_density=240" a few lines down. change 240 to your preferred value. i think i read somewhere that going below 190 is not recommended. don't forget to reset the phone for it to take effect.

I tried a miui with 220 and works well.. i think its rhe perfect value of density

I like the crispness of other roms, to get a better crispy picture to i go higher or lower than 240 dpi?.
Or is CM7 dpi value best left at standard value for image quality?
thanks

lower.......minor density value better image
There's an app that can do that lcd density or something like that. Check the market

Changing density with a Sense ROM doesn't work wonders for me... Buttons are out of shape, phone app looks awful, etc. CM7 with ADWLauncher works fine though...
never tested with a sense rom...i´m going to try and post here the results
cheeers
Changing the build.prop file didn't work for me, however, the LCD density app from the market did!
Problem solved, thanks all

I suspect that you hadn't set /system to read/write, I found that the apps didn't make the change permanent so now edit build.prop
Erm, yea maybe, LCD density app changes have remained permanent though, it'll do for now ;-)

yes that's the drawback, with CM rom's you can set compatibility mode (or maybe it's unset) in spare parts which sometimes helps.
Really love this rom! It has the stability and efficiency of the stock ones I've used so far plus great battery life. Gotta love those power widgets!
I was having one issue with an app's compatibility... I use an app for scheduling at work and it works on some other ROMs, but on others it says its "not compatible with my device" in the Play Store. I know you would like a logcat, but I'm not sure one could make on for this type of issue? I'm not sure if it's because of the stock JB kernel and maybe because other ROMs use the CM kernel.
Has anyone else had compatibility issue with any JB ROM like this? Does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks for your time!
Probably something in the build.prop. ie LCD density. Stock is 320dpi. Anything else may throw up errors on certain apps.

Thanks for the help I did so via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392089 Method 2 but the densities of my other ROMs were the same which is what confused me on why it would be incompatible due to LCD density. Are there any other build.prop mods that could affect this?
Does anyone have any idea how to fix apps that look like this?
I used rom toolbox to edit buildprop dpi and it worked flawlessly on stock lk8.
Also wanted to just inform that my battery life is ridiculous after editing cpu adjustments in rom toolbox as well. If anyone wants my settings used for cpu in rom toolbox just ask.
I attached an image of what the camera app is doing as well as my battery life so far.
+edit+ so after work I was able to evaluate which apps don't show correctly and here's what ive found so far....phone and camera display are a little off but theyre both completely viewable ++
Still trying to figure out how to fix this

Heres 2 more screenshots of misbehaving apps...as of now its only camera, dialer, amd mutiwindow that looks off but multiwindow apps function normal when opened. Also the samsung keyboard forcecloses so I disabled that and use swype with no issues due to dpi change

I saw this and since he doesnt have a device and hasnt done anything really with lk8 I thought.id give it a shot and see what I could get going only thing is I pmed KBizzle from the Paranoid thread and he says it appears the framework isnt built for such a low dpi. So ill keep diving into it and see what I can come up with for a reasonable solution

Well they do work on LK8.
Been used to AOSP CM 10.1 lately with 241DPI. But i've got tired of bugs and I want to switch back to Sammy. Problem is that most Sammy ROM's are 320DPI which is terrible for eyes which got used to lower DPI.
Is there any ROM that runs @ 241 DPI without alignment problems?
Or any way I can set DPI @ 241 on a Sammy ROM and still choose 320DPI for some incompatible apps?
Check out my guide.

Yes I think Alliance ROM should be good. I remember using it and reducing the DPI to 240 and there weren't any alignment problems.
