DPI scaling screenshots - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

I've recently ordered a OnePlus 3. Long time iPhone user, but I've had a few Android handsets in that time. I liked the OnePlus 1 because you could alter the DPI. With the new OnePlus 3 (Nougat) update allowing you to alter the DPI, I'm giving Android another shot.
I was wondering if anyone had any screenshots of different apps, with the DPI set to the smallest setting?

Are you planning on rooting the device? If so changing dpi is easy. Without root it can only be done if the settings allow it. (apparently 4 has it?).
To your question. I haven't changed dpi.

Yes, I'm referring to the ability to change the DPI in OOS4 (Nougat) I'd just like to see the difference it makes.

I'm using the smallest setting since the release of Open Beta 8 (and still running it, too lazy to update to stable )
Any particular apps you're interested in?
Want just smallest DPI setting or also bigger for comparison?
Meanwhile, here's the setting screen that shows a sample in real time to help you decide before applying (in all sizes):

"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And Chrome at minimum:

Congrats but useless unless you are saying you have some magical solution.
I've never tested the Tablet UI on my GNex. I suppose, having a HC tablet, that accessing the quick settings menu would be rather difficult... as well as the navigation buttons.
Would be optimal for HDMI usage though...
How can I get tablet UI?
Can somebody disable navbar in system ui for toro milestone 3, i cant compile get errors

You can't just go into tablet UI just by setting the LCD density. You have to edit the Framework files.
fail.
Thanks for telling us nothing about how u did , if u wanted to just show off just post screen shots on show off ur nexus home page.
not come here and brag.
thanks for the help OP.yours previous 3ad says more on this....(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21921799#post21921799) but it's the same method used to hide softkeys buttons...then only thing to do is change density?(other than make the modify on bools.xml in frameworks?)

right,it's the same mod on here....plus change density i think...
Let's just wait for op. The biggest issue was that the phone would fc. I'm interested in how the op sorted that issue out. Phone fc when actually dialing out.
this thread is highly outdated and as such too complex for such a task. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543892 for a better way.

Shapewriter for Galaxy S3

I recently upgraded to the Galaxy S3. I loaded on my favorite keyboard, Shapewriter, and was disappointed to see that it didn't fill the screen like it did on my other phones. Is there anyway to make it take up the whole bottom of the screen like all the other keyboards? Thanks for any help.

send a note to the developer... they might not be aware and just need to edit it for the larger screen...

It's no longer supported. I have a backup of the APK that I use to install it with. It's not even on the Play anymore as far as I know.

That's clearly not supported on 720p screen, never heard of the keyboard but if you find people that likes it a developer might be able to help

If I recall, Shapewriter was bought by Nuance and incorporated into the FlexT9 keyboard and now those features are incorporated into the latest Swype beta...
So maybe try that?
You can always lower your dpi
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I downloaded the Swype Beta. It's going to take some getting used to, but overall I think it's better than the default Samsung keyboard.
I prefer shape writer over all the rest I've tested. The automatic addition of a space after a period (.),saves hitting the space bar more often than deleting the space. The ability to retroactively capitalizewith one key does not require retype. The selection of typed words with one touch,allows the original selection list to be recalled.
I can't believe they did this all two years ago. Nuance now owns shapewriter.

[MOD][XPOSED] G2 Xposed

This Xposed module is basically allows to change colors of statusbar like Tinted Statusbar and all. Some features is not usable because its a Nexus 4 not G2, Bleed throught Immersive mode is PAID feature but worth it.

It works fine.
I downloaded it and I loved it.
I paid for the bleed thru and it's great!!
Wish I could add more apps or custom colors like TintedStatusBar xposed but I don't mind for right now since the bleed thru immersive implements the change better and it looks way smoother. Looking forward to future updates.

Some stuff is still grayed out I'm guessing because its a Nexus 4 and not a G2 but most stuff is still usable.
And the Bleed thru immersive mode is paid for feature. I think you should add that to the OP

The culprit is likely your low screen resolution. Try to cram more content on the screen by increasing the DPI density. Here's some pointers:

Be careful though. Going too crazy with those settings may result in some elements or buttons showing off screen.

You're wrong! I already found the problem. The problem is in the new GMaps not in the resolution. A lot of users complain for this problem. I installed a lower version of GMaps and everything is good now.

That doesn't make me wrong. My suggestion may allow you to use the newer version on your low resolution screen by scaling everything smaller.
Just for the records, the current Google Maps looks just fine on my device.

What kind of device do you use? The newest version of GMaps works badly on horizontal view. Maybe it works on some phones not on the Android Radios.

UI items look strange on outer screen

Hi,
I'm curious if other Folds' have the same problem as mine.
I think this is only happening from the latest uldate, I am now on Android10, 4.14.117-18521059 kernel (apr 24).
The problem is that menu items are not rendered into one line ie in Settings:
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have set the smallest available font:
Is this screen looks the same on your Fold, guys?
I dont understand the problem im on May patch android 10 and using nova and on the 4th dot font size
Hi, I took a screenshot from a different Galaxy phone (not Fold), and all the items are rendered next to the switches:
Ps: I'm not using any launchers or mods, everything is stock.
If someone has Fold, could you please post a reply with a screenshot of connection (or any other) settings took of the outer screen?
Thank you!
