Per App DPI settings without Paranoid Android

Hey, guys! Firefox Beta is currently my browser of choice, but due to the DPI settings of our beloved Nexus 7, the app uses the Phone UI. Just look at it!
{
"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"
}
Now, let's take a look at it's layout when it sees a proper tablet DPI.
Fabulous! Now let's figure out how we can achieve this...
First of all, we need to install a framework called Xposed. This handy app can modify your ROM without touching an APK or having to flash anything. If your interested, read more about it in its OP. Speaking of the OP, you'll be downloading the APK at the bottom under attachments
You'll find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Open the app and touch the 'Install/Update' button. It should install successfully and request that you reboot your device. Do so now.
Now, we need to grab the app that will allow us to change the DPI settings per app. The app will also allow you to deny permissions to apps, but that's not why we are here.
You'll find the app in the attachment section of the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2072081
Install it and then open the previously installed Xposed Installer. Switch over to the Modules tab and checkmark the Xposed App Settings. Reboot.
Almost done!
After you've rebooted, open up the Xposed App Settings app. Scroll down to the app you would like to modify. In this case, we'll be changing Firefox Beta to tablet mode. Select Firefox Beta when you find it and enable it. Once enabled, you'll be greeted with the following screen:
Yours won't look exactly like that, but you'll need to make yours look like that also. Your DPI can be anything between 160 and 177. Once you've applied those, touch the wrench icon on the top right and force stop the app. go back to the app and touch the icon to the left of the |> icon. It'll ask you if you want to kill the application, do it again for good measure.
Success! Touch the |> icon to start the app and it should be laid out in all its tablet glory!
Bonus: You can also get the tablet, dual pane version of the Settings app by setting the resolution to 1000x1600 in Xposed App Settings.
In closing, take a look at some before and after pictures for some apps that don't have tablet lay outs by default.

As you can see, most of the text is squeezed together in an undesirable fashion. I switched it back. I also believe Pulse has a tablet layout, but I'm not sure.
If you know of any more apps that do this, let me know.

Tried and followed instruction,was able to change the UI but i think changing the dpi doest work thanks for sharing

I'm sorry to hear that. I'm no developer, so I can't be of much help with issues like that. Your best betis to ask the developer of xposed in his thread, or trying again.

This worked for me... thanks!

Except it's no longer stock; you've modified the framework. Keep that in mind when you get an OTA.

So how do you know if xposed installed the files correctly does it auto reboot?
Edit: nvm it worked! Time to get modding thanks Larry!

Good guide thanks. I already did this with chrome to make it work with a site I use.

Not sure I see how Firefox looks any better though. Looks horrible both ways. Truly a terrible browser imo. No redeeming features for me since I am not interested in flash.

Thanks for the guide. The setting app just fc. Can't help anything even I fixed permission already

I've since ditched the browser for Lightning Browser. Tablet may look the same, but the tab system feels much better in tablet mode.
Flash also works fine on Lightning Browser.
EDIT: OP updated with info for dual pane Settings app. Too lazy to check it? Well, it's simple. Select 1000x1600 resolution for the Settings app.

Full Screen Mode

I know LMT launcher is available for this but i just saw this video i looks good any tired it or care to try it. I wont have my phone till next week. Link to the video and the app store where you can get the app. Video is in a different language but no need to understand.

EDIT: if you want to use LMT launcher you have to have root and root explorer to remove the soft keys. First Install LMT launcher, you can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330150.
*Here is the link to download the full screen toggle app so you dont have to modify the build prop
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497558
Then with root explorer Add "qemu.hw.mainkeys = 1" (without the quotes) at the end of the build.prop in /system and reboot (credit to anirudh412 for this).

I would not recommend this app. I tried it. It worked but after reboot my phone I ended up in boot loop. It mess up with the build.prop. So if you don't have recovery it will be pain to restore phone to previous state.

This app worked well for me. Just the placement of the on screen keys would sometimes get I am the way of the software keyboards lower left and lower right most keys. But overall pretty good.

Did you modify did build prop to remove the soft keys before u installed the app? You dont need to modify the build prop for this that maybe the reason you had that boot loop.

This thing almost perfect, the only thing missing is the stock recent apps, instead it uses its own recent apps that don't allow me to remove apps that are running by swiping it to the right.

Yea someone had all ready mention doing the build.prop mod to remove soft keys then installing LMT launcher, i just wanted to provided alternatives and with this you don't need to do build.prop and you all ways have a back arrow key or home button.

well the thing is that with the original post that i put you dont need to do any build prop mods its just installing the apps, but if you want to do the LMT launcher with removing the soft keys its been posted on other threads but ill repost it. Also i dont if a moderator can move this to the app section i posted in wrong place.

Here's what I did:
1. Root the phone with my bootloader still locked.
2. I installed the LMT Launcher app and configured the PIE controls
3. When the PIE controls are all set, I installed the app "Fullscreen Toggle"
4. Fullscreen Toggle gets rid of the softkeys but keeps the status bar on top, which I think is good.
5. I also prefer using Browser vs. Chrome, so Installed Browser apk using the instructions in the other thread for that.
Now, when I browse, I have the full screen, when I exit the browser, I no longer have wasted space by the softkeys taking up space.
I have to say, I love LMT Pie control, its fast and intuitive and its even more convenient to use the phone one handed with it. This made all the difference with this phone.

This is exactly what im doing didnt have a chance to do it yesterday, one question you got stock browser to work cuz it seemed like nobody had it working. Did you follow the instructions from the link I provided.

Also after pressing "No, Ask me later or Yes" in the volume warning the phone is rebooting. Is there any possibility to get rid of this warning apart from xposed module?

I own a Nexus 5. 4.4 RC1 installed on top of Factory Image 4.4.3 with wipa data/cache etc and then Stock GAPPS for 4.4.3.
- There is a general lag here and there, it's not extremely bad but definetely not smooth as it was with 4.4. BETA7.
- Chrome FC while using quick search
- Crashes while rendering Lens Blur images with Google Camera
- Crashes in Theme/Wallpaper section
- Crashes when volume warning ignored while listening music

Yeah, for some reason I go to long press to select something and nothing happens, then if I let go, it just opens the app that I am long pressing on.
There is a setting in the Pixel Launcher that I found for it. Pixel settings - Suggestions - Overview selection. This was/is toggled on and it still is not working. I tried to toggle it off and back on again, no luck.

Very strange. I toggled it off and on and the option works for both. The obvious restarting your phone doesn't do anything?

No. I even tried toggling off, rebooting. Toggling on, rebooting....no luck.
Unless someone else has any other ideas, I will probably factory reset to see if that fixes it, which I am sure it will. DP4 is around the corner though, so I may just wait.

Yeah might as well wait for DP4 first at least.

** SOLVED ** PIXEL 2 XL Apps and AR Stickers Not Working

Got the latest update 1st December 2018
AR Stickers work but cant record when active
Can take pictures but thats it?
Followed a few tuts on YT but ppl are using menu sliding from left my texts are at bottom
ie. Camera Video More
When choosing more it shows Playground
For me to access the Stickers
Also most of my apps when clicking them on home screen or appd drawer go to
Google Play and gives option to uninstall or Open ???
Why doing this and not opening straight away?

They've rebranded stickers to Playground. It's an add-on to the camera so that's why it's not listed in the app drawer.

So this is new to me with AR Stuff

Didn't have to enable anything. I noticed the video button was missing compared to the previous app so I figured long pressing did recording. Have you tried clearing app data? How about make sure all app permissions are on? If that makes a difference.

Yeah tried that
Have gave feedback on app as well as google feedback on the issue
As it seems to be a problem with some users

Might not matter at all because I don't see a possible connection but try changing to the pill home button (gesture navigation). That's the only thing I can see visually different from mine.

*** SOLVED **
Issue is in Developer Options
Issue is in Developer Options
Animation Duration Scale, adjust that solved the issue
Can now record as it wasn't turned up enough
Cheers guys

Nice you figured it out. What setting did you have it on that didn't work?

When you access Developer Options in Settings (advanced)
Scroll Down to Drawing
Then turn Animator Duration Scale up as I had mine Off
This Solved the issue
