either i am stupid, which i don't believe is the case, or i did not find the right app. is there a specific publisher of this toolkit? is it only the paid one?

Any way to do this on other roms ala ParanoidAndroid? I'd like to change the dpi for specific apps not the whole phone. Searched the market and came up with nothing. Didn't get much from a gsearch either.

Its in the build.prop.
Code:
ro.sf.lcd_density=
or if you dont wanna mess with system files, download LCD Density Modder from the market, and use that. you have to be rooted though.
EDIT: thats impossible to do it for specific apps, and pointless.. lol

Not pointless. Its one of the best features on the paranoidandroid port. For example the xda app is huge I'd like to make it a 200 dpi. But I want to keep apex at its default 240.

AFAIK... paranoidandroid is the only ROM able to do this. Even in then, there are still numerous errors, FCs with apps. To answer your OP, its impossible without paranoidandroid. Unless you wanna grab some source code and figure it out
Could someone please point me to a link that will help me mod an app to be used at 240dpi. I have searched and nothing comes up about a tut to change from 320dpi to 240dpi.
I dont want to change the dpi to 240 of the rom. I want to be able to mod the app so when 240dpi is used it will still look right in terms of the layout.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Evil.
You want to look for the xposed framework. You can change dpi on an app by app basis.

Yes I know that thinks but the problem is some apps don't like lower dpi's as they have not been created for them. E.g. the stock dialer of TW can't be used at 240dpi as the dialpad is all out.
Cheers for your response though.

Again as I said to the guy above you 2 posts, I already know about that and use it but some apps don't look right with 240dpi. I want to mod the apps themselves to be able to be used at 240dpi.
Thanks though.
Cheers,

Ah. That's a bit different than the way your inquiry originally read. :/

Sorry, wording is everything I agree. I want to mod the actual apps so they look right when used at 240dpi.
I'll edit the first post.
Cheers,

You need to use xposed settings for the apps that don't look well.
Just select the app in it and in dpi change it to 320dpi.
This is mostly to be done with system apps as play store apps are generally made to be scaled.

Exactly what I don't want. Please read the posts in the thread. I want to mod the apps that don't work with 240dpi so that when the rom I am using is in 240dpi app layouts that don't work with 240 will work.

No I'm sorry don't you people read. I want a tut that guides me on how to turn an app into a multi dpi app so that I can use the same app between different roms at different dpi's
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium
I don't think there is a guide about it.
Try contacting bala_gamer where he learnt from.
I think you should unpack both stock and modded apps to see what is changed in there.
Unpack both with apktool from google.
Then use a compare tool that will calculate the differences between the two apks.

It's in the play store and highly customisable. You can go simple or you can learn how to use it properly and get the most out of it. There's some threads knocking about here somewhere with icons and widgets for it too, so worth a search.
Not to hijack the thread but...
Would it still be advisable to get WidgetLocker with the 4.2.2 just around the corner? (Hopefully)

God yeah. Can do way more stuff than simply placing a widget on the screen. You can pretty much do whatever you want.

Not available for 4.1.2 TW ROMs.

None at all or even similar?

Nah bro. I WISHHH it was available on TW ROMs, but I live without it. HERE is the AOSP messaging app for TW (DL the TouchWiz one) it doesn't have quick reply, but other than that it's awesome and works fantastic, including MMS!
That really sucks... but thanks for the info and rhe link

I use a combination of amiblindyet's AOSP texting app, which is mentioned 2 posts above, and SMS enhancer. SMS enhancer gives you the quick reply from notifications.

Yeah kevin from teslacoil really let a good thing go down the crapper with his disregard for the android community... running apex now and it's great.

I loved nova too. Unfortunately kevin made it impossible to theme or mod nova by outside devs. So he has turned his back on people that have promoted, used, and modded the app to match full themes. See the nova thread for further explanation... but in the end it comes down to the android community and since he feels that he can't help those that have supported him for years, I can't see myself using his app until it's rectified. Apex is better I believe anyway. Same features as nova without the bad attitude...
