changed dpi, have some questions

I changed the screen dpi to 200 but now miui launcher looks weird.
So I'm using adw launcher with 1 extra row and looks nice, however I like the way miui launcher functions, like when I install a app it immediately puts it on desktop, just like the iphone.
Is there any launcher that acts like this and also allows to change number of rows and columns?
this is miui default, folders and other widgets look even weirder

You change the LCD density string in build.prop to set it permanently, or use lcd density changer from the market to do a temp change.
You can use a tool called "Absolute System" to edit the build.prop easily.

you can use launcherpro which allows to change number of rows and columns

and what would exactly be the point in changing it?

may be engwee wants to see more apps at the same time without moving the screen up and down

changing the lcd density has the same same effect as changing the resolution on your pc monitor. the phone will fit more on the display, so smaller icons and text etc...

any of this apps are changing the phone dialer too ?.....???

None of the sammy aps like dialer change with DPI changes, everything looks smaller and a bit crap, you will either need to find a ROM with DPI changes built in for that or there might be a theme you can use maybe.

My theme is built for changed DPI (shameless plug)

Yes, TouchWiz doesn't play nice with DPI changes. Use Go Contacts (includes dialer) for dialer - I haven't found a MULTI-DPI camera replacement yet tho.

Changing LCD Density
Changing the density changes the whole phone - if you set density to a lower number everything will be smaller on the screen and then you can fit more items on the screen. A higher number will make things bigger and fit less.
An unfortunate side effect of changing DPI however is that quite a lot of apps don't like it and will force close when you try and open them. For example, I just set mine to 200dpi and Angry Birds FC's.
The Market is another app that seems to be fairly DPI sensitive, however in my case right now running CM7 nightly the Market is working fine at 200dpi.
Another effect can also be black bands around apps that are not written to scale to screen DPI but rather with hard coded sizes for LDPI/MDPI/HDPI.
Cheers!

like I said in my first post, I'm using ADW and it works fine with it, I was looking for a miui like launcher, with all the apps on desk and no app drawer, probably doesn't exist.
While I was on miui rom I didn't encounter problems with the apps I used, this goes from games to standard apps, like the market.
Now I'm on stock and I saw the dialer is small, but no problem otherwise, when I get called the slider works fine.
the advantage is it makes the screen seem like higher res, browser fits a lot more content, holding it next to a sensation it looks the same, one difference I encountered on sensation is a game megajump, doesn't fill out the screen while on sgs2 with dpi change it still does.
it probably looks so good because of the samoled + subpixel density stuff

It makes it look extremely hi-res. I can't, no, WON'T have my phone at stock DPI, ever.

At 200 (I've also tested 190,160,165) I noticed a few small things but all graphical. Like the toggle buttons on the status bar, the text for sound is lower than the other buttons, the dialer looks out of wack, the tabs in the XDA app have a line running through them and at 160 the ics launcher looked a little funky. Since I lowered it to 200 I now use the go dialer but as far as functionality there really haven't been any issues.

I dont use the stock launcher, I use adw ex. The stock launcher doesnt look pretty. I think most of us that lower the density are using 3rd party launchers

Wow some of you are going low, mine is set at 220. Gonna try to lower it and see what all the buzz is about.
edit...set @ 160 LOL at the dialer! back to 220 for me. just enough to shrink the icon sizes to normal

I did 200 for a while... Didn't notice anything funky. Put it at 206, haven't looked back.

there is an older version of the market that is modified to not heck density. I dont know if there is a version of the new market that is available that does the same but you can find the 2.x.x version(I prefer I older market) in theme and apps. the title of the thread is "downgrading market" or something like that

im at 200 and i can install apps from the market just fine

I'm at 160, only problem so far is the notification bar doesn't swipe down properly when in the desktop dock.
Also, don't do 100. My phone nearly exploded.
Edit: A LOT of apps seem to be hard-coded for 800x480, and look strange with the density bumped.

I use 205. Which puts it near qHD resolution
200dpi makes the signal bars/3G icon look a bit weird, so i find 205 is the best.

Lower brightness possible?

Good day everyone,
When using my device in low light surroundings, i tend
to experience the brightness as too high, is there any
way of lowering the minimum brightness?
I'm running the note2core std kernel, stock debloated
dlk7 rom (rooted )
I have tried the following with ROM Toolbox pro;
Go to build.prop editor
Found the value "ro.lcd_min_brightness"
Standard value was 20, lowering this number did
nothing for me, i tried 15, 12, 5 and 0..
I have also tried lowering this value whike using
another kernel like stock, redpill and N.E.A.K.
And also not working on stock ROM..
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot

Screen Filter is good, but it doesn't really lower the brightness. It applies a filter which makes the display darker. Any screenshot you take will be darker. But other than that, it's perfect for low light situations

I like this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsInB0LmJiYXJhby5uaWdodG1vZGUiXQ..

My vote is for Screen Filter. I have used rt every night and every morning for the last 2 years. Never any problems.

Let's change my question;
Is it hardwarewise possible to lower
the minimum brightness? If so, please share

I wondered this too and I'm surprised that there hasn't been a mod/tweak to allow you to get the brightness as low as possible without the use of apps. I've tried everything from editing build.prop to decompiling framework-res.apk, but nothing to seems to really work.

But on an OLED display, that's the same as lowering the brightness (although what you said about screenshots still stands)

This is likely done on purpose. Imagine the frustration of going outdoors and your screen was set so dim that your phone is useless until you can see enough to raise the brightness.

Very useful app.

+1 for lux, works on hardware level to lower brightness and not by just adding a darkening filter.

Nope, lux definitely works by adding a filter in sub-zero mode. Not that this matters except when taking screenshots because as I said before, on an OLED screen this is essentially the same thing. But thanks for the recommendation, lux is a very nice app.

You could try edit the build. prop and set the minimum brightness level to something like 10. By default its 20. Quickest way I use is the build. prop Editor in rom toolbox.

Best DPI for Galaxy Note 2

I was wondering what is the best DPI for my Galaxy Note 2, I tried other people's suggestions but it didn't work for me so I was wondering how Google decided on their DPI. Considering they're in charge of Android they must know the optimal level so I used the Nexus 7 and the Nexus 4 as reference:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So if Google designed a 5.5 inch screen device with 720x1280 resolution, it would most likely be at 270 DPI
I know this won't help a lot of you how it helped me but just thought I'd share it just on the hunch that it might at least help the 1% :silly:

Obvious you didn't check Wikipedia yourself, not that's academically reliable in any way but DPI is a unit of measurement for printer resolution not for display resolution. It's like saying a football field is 100 litres long er something.
So take your own advice and refrain from further posting. We will appreciate it very much.

Ok. I gave you the chance to research, but well... DPI is the pixel density of your screen that can be soft-modded to make your display "look" different. There are many apps that can actually change your DPI. Note 2's DPI is 320 by default. 240 DPI is the best one IMO for this type of screen size.
With all due respect, there are thousands of forums in XDA where this topic is being discussed.

With any DPI change the phone app loses proportions but with 270 it's easily passable only thing that changes is the dial pad is smaller and more to the left, but yeah nothing "all messed up" :fingers-crossed:
I suggest you try it though, give it some time and it feels premium
Edit: Oh and if it bothers you leave the phone app how it is, I use the Xposed Framework method so I get to pick what I want changed, very useful look it up

How about any other apps that have problems, I have heard there is a problem with the camera app, with a dpi change and the play store.

Change the system ui with the xposed app settings. Then you won't have to worry about apps messing up. You can choose which apps you want to change.

You don't have to change the resolution if you don't want to. I think that gives you tablet ui. Not sure though.

Looks good thanks, I changed the resolution on the Gmail app too, 1280x800 and got the tablet ui, it looks great.
Nova seems to have a small gap between the top of the screen and the notification bar, that's with the systemui's dpi changed to 270 and Nova changed to 270, is this normal.

DPI Changing

hi, just wondering if anyone has changed the dpi on the g3. if you have, what is the safe dpi number?
also, is there any web site like sammobile.com for lg phones?
thanks.

I've been playing with this a bit and can't get it right at the moment. I lose some functionality of LG programs and/or icons show as default images. I'm using xposed and App Settings to make the changes. Setting the main UI dpi to my desired setting means I have to set e.g. phone/contacts to 640 dpi to get it to load correctly plus their icons display incorrectly and show as Android default.....
If anyones got any ideas it would be appreciated.

i set it down to 480 and the systemui just crashes, ended up have to restore the whole thing coz i cant access aromafm or cwm for that matter. last i tried 560 without fc, but i dont know if there is any icon missing. i am still new to this LG environment and still digging for lots of things. seems that it is not as easy as in samsung. on thing for sure, LG's software department needs to polish their software badly. it is just not up to the standard of a flagship phone. so cluttered around.

i am running it at 540 with no issues. i tried it at 520 and got systemui FCs. DO NOT GO BELOW 540!

didnt see this thread and set dpi to 180 and rekt the phone cant store is stuck in boot loop

I'm using 580 right now with no problems. Granted, I don't use widgets or the LG Launcher. Dual Window works fine. The Amazon app works but won't show in Play Store at this DPI.

Restoring DPI back to 640 stock fixes the FC's - just need to find the spot which doesn't FC apps.

restoring back to 640 didn't fix my FC. I had to restore my nandroid backup

I ended up trying again but instead of editing the build prop I used the xposed module app settings. I only edited the system UI. That seems to work without any of the error message. Only issue now is that the lockscreen needs to be adjusted.
Does anyone know the file to edit the lockscreen?

I use rom toolbox to change the dpi down to 540 without any big adverse effects. I do notice a slight lag in the touch screen tho

530 is the sweetspot.
Anything below that will cause weird looking icons and possible FC's.

Thanks.. I tried editing the build prop again. I love the look but I experience the same single issue. Have you tried launching app info?
---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------
Maybe I should just edit the app info file individually with the module app settings. Anyone know that file?

Is there no solution for my lock screen issue?? There must be a file I missing to manually edit.. When I edit the build prop the UI is great including the lockscreen.
Let me clarify. By editing the one file "system ui"
I get a good result with my overall dpi with exception to my lock screen.
When I turn off the module and edit the build prop DPI my lock screen looks good but I get crashes from the system apps and other apps.
And just for good measure I'll post a Screenshot of my lock screen at factory dpi

I use this app to change dpi to 560 even if 510, nothing happens until I use camera app. 2 left first functions in Setting and Mode disappear. I had to return 640. Is there any way to change dpi safe without any issue?

You can change DPI for whole system in build.prop, and than individually in App Settings (xposed module). I have always do that. Usually phone app and camera have to be changed

I'm running at 440 dpi and I've set every LG apps at 640 using Xposed and AppSettings. I use Nova Launcher too in order not to have problems with big icons etc.
