Cm 13 res change

I just got cm 13 and i wonder IF i change res to 1920x1080 will their be negative stuff and will my phone get better performance IF i change res

From my experience, it will affect performance in positive way, but battery life will be pretty much same. Try it out

Will contacts and playstore breake IF so how could i reactivate apps

Battery life will not improve because the pixels are just getting bigger for it to become 1080p this does NOT actually disabled them or anything. IT does the same as your PC.

No, everything should work fine. The problem could be with stock rom, but on CM you should be good to go.

wold i get super big Icons

just try it, open terminal and type
su wm size 1920x1080 //this will change your resolution, you can experiment with different resolutions
su wm density 560 //density - if you go too high, everything will be bigger; if you go lower, everything will be smaller; I would recommend 500
reboot your device
if something goes wrong, you can always reset your resolution and density
su wm size reset //it will reset your screen size to default value - 2k (1440x2560)
su wm density reset //this will reset density to default value - (560 on CM13 I think)
Don't be afraid, try everything out, experiment.

[QUESTION] Improve gaming perfomance.

Guys wich is best Rom or Kernel for improve gaming performance on this device? I'm playing FF IX but loading times between the scenes still too long with nothing running on background. I don't care about battery life, etc. I'm on Lg G3 3gb/32gb d855 with stock MM 33b + root.

I dont think you can get the loading times much better, and you've already got the 3gig model
you could always try xceed kernel and change some of the setpoints?
Good luck.

Thanks for answer! But i see some gameplays videos where the game run smooth and fastest than mine with a device that should be less performing than my lg g3( example this one where loading times are 2-3 seconds fast than mines). Btw I will try with xceed kernel as your suggestion. After flashed it I have to set it in some way for have "best performance" possible? Or is it all already pre-set? Thanks.

Downscale resolution to 1080p

I want to lower the device resolution to 1920x1080 to give the phone a bit more snappiness, maybe even more battery life.
I found a thread that has done it ----> This thread
However using the commands
wm size 1080x1920
wm density 441
does not work running android M
I am running the AOSP - CAF rom
Has anyone done succeeded at doing this on android M?

I've had no issue using the wm command on any versions of XenonHD on my d855. I have always used Nomone resolution changer to check the current resolution. But the terminal commands work for me whether the apps installed or not.
If I remember rightly some ROMs have issues with changing density "wm density" to a lower value, but that can be rectefied by changing (or adding) "ro.sf.lcd_density=" in the build prop. I have my wm density set to 320 and my buildprop to "560"
I think you may need to report this issue in your ROMs forum thread to get more accurate advice though. Like I said, I've never had any problems on XenonHD with ACC1.6 kernel.

its useless to downgrade your resolution to 1080p.there will be 0% improvement on battery and a minor 10-20% boost in gpu performance.it will make your g3 look ugly so better not do that.if u want better battery life go fo some 3rd party batteries like zerolemon and others

[TIP] [SM-P600-601] Howto Degrease Battery Drain

I found a tip for my sm-p600 to degrease battery drain.
You just have to degrease resolution and dpi.
On an adb console on your PC :
tape this:
Code:
wm size 2048x1280
(you will have a fc launcher, no pain)
then tape
Code:
wm density 250
your res is now 2048x1280 and your tab is now battery friendly about 50%
it stay after reboot.
if you want to go back to native screen, you have to set res to 2560x1600 and dpi 320
try ! it work
Don't do this on terminal emulator because on change res, you have continuous fc launcher and you can't change dpi.
:good:

This shows how silly xHD resolution is for phones with less than 6 inches. And how amazing battery life could be on current top phones if they still had FullHD displays.

Sm-p600 is an amazing tab with a very high rsolution but have a poor battery life.
If you degrease the res a little, you still have a good display but your battery will stay longer.
Its my choose, so i share.

Please explain how I do this.?
I downloaded android - skd and Android studio and I have USB debugging enabled but that's all I know. Thanks in advance.

Great idea ...
Dear @murigny64 , it's a good idea to lower the resolutions ... but , didn't you face any problems with system apps ( as they are designed for some especial resolutions ... ) ? also , how was your performance with games and demanding apps ? ... did it effect your benchmark results ? ... Great Thanks in Advance

No prob with system apps if you respect resolution vs density.
Only one thing : bootanimation is shifted when you boot device.
I've doing this especially for games like crash royale.
Before the tweak, i can play about 30minutes only. But now, i can play more than 1 hour. It's very amazing.
You can try, it's easy.
Antutu is 53550 with stock 5.1.1 .

+ Good idea to reduce the resolution :good:, more juice for the processor, radio, Gpu, screen on time, etc.
+ I used NOMone resolution changer w\ root (revert back to default in 9s if things go wrong).
+ Layerpaint & cpu-z detects the display as 8".
- Got 51th 48296 on antutu 6.2.7 (lollypop stock serbia rooted, P601 w\ deathly adiutor) Right bellow note 5, Probably because TW lollypop & old processor. Was "13th" 54954 on kitkat (P601 w\ gltools).
- samsung gallery got 1/4 view cut on the right side of the screen (folder view) , i use quickpic.
Didn't see any significant increase in terms of battery life, only slightly.
can anyone else confirm it works?

I'd be interested in an explanation of how reducing the resolution would have any effect on battery usage. The backlight is still on, all the pixels are still used, so what's using less battery?

Less render pressure for the SoC I assume. Backlight is still the #1 hog though.
---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ----------
To OP: Although this could be overkill, I think you could make the new resolution an integer-multiple downsize to the original (e.g. 2x - 1280x800), so that one image pixel could correspond to an integer-amount of physical pixels (e.g. 2^2=4) on the screen. Could ease rendering pressure even more, but naturally at the cost of clarity.

Hi, adb says this is WM is not recognized as a command. Do you know what am I doing wrong?
>>> nevermind. just an incomplete command
adb shell WM size 2048x1280

Is it possible to do a step by step for non developers? (or a quick video)
What software are you running?

Wow, if working that sounds awesome! Do you think it works also on the P605 (LTE version)?

[HELP] My LG G4 is heating near camera and images not loading in gallery

My lg g4 was worked fine for the past 1 year. Now I am facing an issue near the camera.
Battery draining too quick. If I use 10 mins, around 30% battery is draining.
And my images are not loading. Showing like something encrypted. I have attached the screenshots too.
Note: I done reset many times. But, still facing the problem.
Using android 6.0:crying::crying:

best way to fix this is to reduce the big core A57 to 1.44 ghz or disable it completely to cool down lock the freq
clear the cache install root optimized stuff that u need all on the internet out there to solve
even the new S8 device they set it deafult at 1080p resolution so set the resolution
to 1080x1920 at 440 dpi
script (using android terminal or rom toolbox auto script startup**leave the su command for rom toolbox )
su
wm size 1080x1920 wm
or use dpi changer app (root) to archive scale but stock app will crash use 3rd party app
remove all bloat ware app ..... there alot of things to optimized

Thanks alot. I am not a techie like you. I am just a beginner. Can you tell me in the easy way to do it?
