Hi everyone
So I'm currently running AOKP and I love it to bits. However, I am considering switching to ParanoidAndroid dude to the extra real estate and, in my opinion, better layout on some apps.
Overall, I still think AOKP is the better ROM so I was wondering if theres anyway of getting a lower dpi settings, camera and email/gmail app that I would manually push to my phone or something. I'm only thinking of this since ParanoidAndroid has a per app dpi.
Any help would be appreciated
thanks
So, I'm thinking I broke my phone or something here. After playing around with paranoid android for a while, and trying different sizes for everything, my screen is now super grainy, even when back to standard settings. I've played with stuff in the performance tab, and nothing seems to change it. I even tried a system wipe and reflash, and it still looks like ass. Any body else experience this?
Hmm ... ask in paranoid thread
no problem at all with stock 4.1.2 LL7 Rom
Hey,
I have a small question again.
My wife has the LG P700 and used until recently one of Rome SlimBean.
There it was, that's all been somehow smaller, which had more space on the desktop.
I do not know how to describe it .... on the PC, I would say that the resolution has been changed.
Well anyway, I did like the totally good and I wonder if you can also transfer it somehow to the DHD / apply.
Does anyone know what?
Normally I would say DHD has smaller DPI, but they both have the same screen size and same resolution.
The solution would be to set smaller fonts in setting or change ROM (generally AOSP ROMS (or Sense3.6) have smaller UI elements than Sense4)
Some roms have custom DPI options, if you're finding that your rom is too big/small ParanoidAndroid might be a good bet.
Hey,
Thanks for the replies.
Has anyone had experience with TEXTDROIDER_DPI?
This is probably the one to change.
Currently I have 240 DPI. The app hits me 220 DPI ago. I get displayed I definitely want to make a backup of what I have done.
According app it can happen that you get a Bootloop and then have to change a file.
Now before I try out, I prefer to ask ... maybe someone has done it already experiences.
CyanogenMod version:
20,131,022-4.3-beta6-Ace
changing DPI may look tempting, but in most cases it will mess up graphics by making UI elements look blurry. Moreover, you may have problems with apps compatibility.
Hi all
I'm aware there are problems with the M9 camera but looking at mine I can't tell if the problems really are that bad or if I have a bad model.
Are the any decent fixes so far? I'm aware there is a newer build version ( 1.32.651.30 - that include thermal issues and camera fixes ) that those on Android Revolution can't update via OTA yet. Will these be coming to ARHD soon? Anyway to update to this?
The main problems I have is that the images are FAR too soft. This is effecting both the front and back cameras and the images are not crisp like the M7. I don't quite understand why so many are having problems. Is everyone else having these massively soft images? (It's like it's smoothing over the image to reduce noise but it just looks awful and like a 6 year old phone camera)
Thanks
Goto setting then adjust contrast and other details.
Hi guys !
Here is the thing. I used to change the resolution of my G3 (D855 - 16GB) on stock to 1080P, and it was amazing.
Since Marshmallow, there's a few problem if you do that. Let me explain :
I managed to lower the resolution of the rom with ADB to 1080p, everything was right, but the DPI was too big, obviously ! So i lowered it to 540, the limit of LG apps, and everything was fine, but the problem is, it's still too big. It's one of the problems of the G3 that i can't stand. The DPI is too big, even in stock 1440P. I tried different things, to lower the DPI under 540, and here is the results :
1 ) Lower the DPI of the rom under 540 : Force close on LG Apps
2) Lower the DPI of the rom under 540 and use App Settings to put all the LG Apps at 540 DPI, it somehow worked but there was a lot of incompatibilites that were not in Lollipop. That was what i used to do on my Lollipop Rom.
3) Leave the DPI to 540 but change all the daily used apps to a DPI under 540 : It worked too, but the System UI was still too big.
4) Same as 3, but change the DPI of SystemUI under 540 : It worked too, but everytime i call was received, i couldn't answer because of force closes.
So here's my question. Can someone help me to figure how to lower the DPI of SystemUI and getting the phone to still work ? Or share with me another method to do it, ideas that i can try, etc, i'm open to suggestions !
Thanks !
Actually, I used to go through the same steps as you described, on Lollipop. I got everything to work, with 1080p and dpi around 440 I believe. My experience was, that App Settings would pretty much fix any misbehaving app after the dpi change, including the call/message apps. The only thing that continued being weird was the default LG home screen, which still had blank, broken icons and widgets so I had to replace it with Nova Launcher, which worked like a charm. This was about half a year ago, and when I done it on my phone, I repeated the same process on my friend's G3 (same ROM, same process).
My G3 would work fine for a while, but eventually, at some point during the 3rd or 4th system restart, it would always get bricked, stuck on the LG logo while booting. Always had to restore my backup., try again, but to no avail.
My friend's G3, on the other hand worked just fine ever since, which I can't quite wrap my head around, since it's the same phone, with the same ROM and the same procedure.
So I would also like to know if it's possible to create a stable 1080p system with MM now. As to your call problem, does it force close even though you applied the fix to it in App Settings?
I also replaced my launcher by Nova Launcher, on stock or modified, i prefer Nova Launcher, a lot more options to customize it.
I'm actually using a modified 1080P Marhsmallow Rom, but it's not stock, it is on AICP (based on CM13 MM i think), and it is working fine, but it's not stock. The camera is not as good as stock.
I dont know why your phone had this problem though, i never had this on mine.
I'll try again the same steps that i described, on the fulmics marhsmallow rom, that is eventually coming in a few days.
For the phone force close problem, i tried multiple things, and it didn't work with a custom DPI set with app settings on the phone APP. That's why i tried to put the whole system at 540 DPI and my personal apps at 400. And as described in my first post, it worked good, but systemUI was too big.
Maybe i can try differents xposed modules to customize the SystemUI to make it smaller without modidyfing the DPI of the whole app?...
Bump... Is really no one interested by downgrading the resolution of the G3?... You should at least try, it is good for gaming and fluidity.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you put "Game optimizer" setting ON, then all games are run in 1080p.
You can find it under "Battery & power saving" option.
Therefore, there is no reason to downscale resolution on Marshmallow
Same here. Just flashed Fulmics 3.1.... Set my DPI to 540 but still find the UI too big unlike when I was on Ti-x lollipop. I browse facebook regularly and the chatheads are way too big for a 540 DPI, heck, it's even smaller when I was on lollipop with the same DPI. It's kinda annoying considering how big the G3's screen is... big UI just waste space. I'm loving the new marshmallow rom but this one is really a nuisance.
