[Q] About DPI and Quickcircle case. - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I have changed the dpi to around 600, I really like it there but then there's the obvious problem with the clock size for quickcircle case being small and not aligned. I don't have xposed currently and so I used texdroider to change the dpi. My question is, how can I manually go and change the dpi of the clock widget. I know there's a way to do this if I use xposed. But texdroider doesn't have any app settings, so if anyone has an idea, please help me out. Thanks.

Manually edit layout files. No other way around it.

Not sure about this. I had the same issues with font on stock E4GT. But if you happen to be using GO Launcher, you can go into menu>Preferences>Advanced Settings>Scan font>Font
This will let you choose from any font currently on your phone, whether one you uploaded or one associated with an app. Quick, easy and it sticks. Unfortunately this only works with GO so if you don't like GO or want to stick with stock you could also try Font Changer or Metamorph, both work on stock TW or any 3rd party launcher.
I've never been able to get it to stick.
If you happen to me rooted you can also change the dpi for your phone with an app:
LCD Resolution
or
ROM Toolbox
Bewarned though, TW launcher doesn't look quite right and you will likely want a custom launcher. But it will do the trick.
Just_s I have GO launchee and my font isn't the problem. Its the size of the font :-( and for the other guy I have tried the density changer and like my keyboard to stay big and I have to go back to 240dpi to install almost anyapp which is not worth running the density changer. So any way to keep my font smaller ? Like u can do usinf spare parts but make it stick and stop reverting

Change just the lock screen DPI?

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.

[Q] G3 Resolution help. devs come help!

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!

Changed DPI, circle case not working

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.

Dialer to large with lower dpi

So i like to keep my screen dpi at a nice 420. Everything works fine except that the sense dialer is to big and covers contact names. Is there a way to fix this? I'm assuming I need to change the dpi of just this app, but I am unaware of any per app dpi mods for this phone.
I'm on leedroid if it matters
What app did you use to change the dpi? I'm on LeeDroid and used Texdroider to change the dpi down to 420 and my dialer is just fine.

Just straight build. Prop edit. Will try with the app
Update: its a bust, still to big. What dpi are you using?
Grab the xposed module "app settings", some of the settings it manages is per-app dpi, resolution, font scaling, the works. I use it to keep sense home, the themes app, and dialer all at stock 480
Yeah, I made a mistake. My Texdroider settings didn't stick at boot for some reason so I was back on the default 480dpi when I looked at my dialer. Set it to 420 and have the same issue that you do.

i forgot about xposed, but would really like to hold off on using it until it hits stable status (or at least auto updates with fixes)
