Just you. Take into account the soft keys use screen real estate.
check out this thread, it's about the same issue, find my post, it's explained nicely:

Our device default lcd density is 240!
I have it at 220 but the dialer is messed up. Any way to fix it?
What lcd density do you guys have?
Thanks

What app did you use to change it? My apps all stay the old size

It's a personal preference. I like 210. I changed the dialer to Go Dialer. I am using LCD Resolution.

Does Go Dialer also work during a call?
I tried exDialer but during a call it would load the stock dialer/keypad which is very small..
Questions go in the Q&A section
How come some apps are not compatible with the GN?
Take some NFC apps as an example, and this for instant: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.chatchatmeow.gnl
EDIT: Is it because I have set lower density?

Changing density does that to some apps, I don't have any trouble installing the app you linked.

The problem was the screen density. Fixed it with LCD Density Pro app

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.

Just want to ask fellow xda members for help and opinion. Im using the same picture on my homescreen and lock screen but I have noticed that the quality of the picture on the lockscreen is nit as clear or as sharp as the one on my home screen even though im using the same picture. Any ideas?

Most likely you have the "Ripple Effect" enabled, just go into lock screen settings and disable it.

Ive tried the method u told me and it does help a bit, still not as clear as if I use the picture as home screen but better that if I have the ripple effect on. Thanks for the great advice.

What is the best resolution for our devices, I wasn't too resize a picture to be a full screen wallpaper
Also what is the best way to go about doing this?
I should state that I'm looking to make this picture big enough to fill just one hone screen page completely

If you wanted to go the manual approach just resize to 1280 × 720
