Hey!
I have changed the stock DPI value (640) to 540 by changing the value in build.prop, everything looks awesome apart from the quickcircle applications. I have managed to change the DPI of the clock widget to back to 640 DPI by manipulating com.lge.clock, so far so good. The call log and camera applications are still way off tho, as well as the animation light.
Does anybody know what apk's I need to change to fit the camera, call log and animation light in the quickcircle case?
Changing the dpi of com.android.keyguard back to stock fixes the animation light, sharing here since ive heard that other people have had troubles with it too. Still problems with call logs tho, cant figure that one out!
Changing the DPI to stock on 'SystemUI' fixes all of it apart from the call logs. Weird. Obviously your notification bar/etc will be at stock DPI also.

does anyone know of any projects in place for this?
These seems to be the apps that need this the most:
Samsung email client with no security
samsung launcher and dialer and contacts.
Now when running on low dpi I have found alternatives for all of these to make it work with my 180 LCD Density DPI. however just curious if anyone knows of someone who is working on themes for low lcd density dpi?
Did you get the stock dialer to work under 180? I'm running 200 and looking for a fix. THe dialer doesnt fill the screen.

That's because it's scaling the dialer because it's themed (TW based roms) if your on a CM ROM then it looks normal and not shrunken to the top left corner.
Also makes the calculator and clock look the same way.
Don't think there is a fix for that mate. Go CM9.

So I was on Slim Bean AOSP ROM while I wated for the latest version of JB Domination theme. One thing I loved about that ROM was that the DPI was set to 256 by default and it was awesome.
I mean I got back to stock and it was at 320... like comeon its soooo huge.
So I would suggest you guys to try it out. Set the lcd density to 256 in build.prop and then used xposed framework to re-set samsung stock apps to 320 DPI. (Cam, Contacts and Calculator). You might need to freeze the Samsung Keyboard in Titanium Backup before you change DPI as it'll keep crashing.
Don't ask me how to do this, just a tip for those who know how to get around it.
I think this thread isn't so useful. Why? Cause every person has different methods of making their phone comfortable. Whether they like default view or the smaller fonts for those who have sharp eyes.
I've been running the awesome SkyDragon ROM/kernel with texdroider running the DPI at 560 and it's awesome. Today I got the circle case with wireless charging back and because of the different DPI the clock doesn't line up. I just changed back to stock DPI and the clock is fine but I realized just how much I enjoyed the rest of the phone at 570. I downloaded App Settings to try but I can't find the name of the lockscreen apk. Anyone know or have a better solution? Thanks.

So just in case anyone is wondering or has the same problem, it seems the easiest option is to set SystemUI back to 640 with App Settings. That fixes the lockscreen circle back to the proper position. It affects the status bar and nav bar as well, but it still keeps everything else the same.
As you can see in the screenshot here the status bar icons are proportionally a little too big, but not horrible. I shrank the nav bar back down with G3 Tweaksbox.
RESOLVED
Necroposting for the purpose of this being the first result in Google for G3 Lockscreen DPI.
Figured it out.
Undo any and all previous DPI tweaks.
Use Texdroider DPI, set to 530 reboot.
Install xposed AppSettings, enable it. Reboot.
In AppSettings look for an entry called key com.android.keyguard. Enable it and set DPI to 640 (this is stock). Under that select/check Apply res to widgets.
Save (Maybe Reboot also).
I am going to revive this thread and thread jack.
Does anyone know how to change the DPI for the lockscreen in Lollipop? My post above only works for KitKat, the package no longer exists in LP

I believe since everybody is silent about this issue it is best to set the phone lock to none and revert to a 3rd party lockscreen at least that is what I did.
Hi, Im using the resolution changer app from google play to make my dpi 540. The problem is I wamt my lockscreen to stay to 640dpi due to quick circle case. Heres what ive done for now. I set my dpi to 540 using resolution changer,then use the xposed module app settings to change the lg.keyguard.apk for lockscreen to 640 dpi. The problem is that the setting doesnt stick. When i reboot res changer takes over. I think the two apps are conflicting. I was thinking of using just the app setting module, but i dont know which app/system to change.
Heres the breakdown.
I want my lockscreen to be 640dpi but the rest of the system to be 540dpi.
I want answers and not opinions like 'its fine the way it is'. Please and thank you!
Hey all,
I have changed the phones DPI to 540 using the textdroider app. The phone now looks perfect and I believe it is how it should have looked out of the box, but I now have a slight issue.....or two.
The quick circle case is now useless. The clock is way off center. Is there a way to fix this? Can I change the DPI for that app only?
Also, when I reboot the phone, Gapps is FC'ing. Would this be due to the DPI aswell, or something else? It only started after the DPI change.
Thanks.
Just realised that there is another thread about this. Is there an update about this though? In that thread, users could change the clock back, but not the animation.
