Hi all, I was just wondering if there are any apps that can permanently change the pixel density on the Wildfire that you can recommend?
I'm using LCD Density Changer atm which says it does this by writing to system, but despite having Superuser it just doesn't. I'm running CM7 nightly 51, although that's probably not got much to do with it.
Thanks
System Write requires S-OFF, which isn't available on the Wildfire yet (Or, you can get it if you know someone having an XTC Clip ).
So, I guess permanent pixel density is not yet achievable.
Ah, sadly not fortunate enough to have/know someone who has/afford an XTC clip just yet... so it's a no go
Still, thanks for the response

Slightly off topic, but i've always wondered what the use of s-off is since everything that u can do with s-off, u can do without s-off... (except that the phone has to be in recovery, but even with s-off most of the good stuff requires a reboot a anyway)
i suppose some of the fastboot hacks.... hmmmm
EDIT: never mind, now that i think about it there are a lot of uses

Slightly deceiving title? Hm, maybe.
But I just wanted to share some findings where people actually care.
You know the somewhat distorted look you get on the CRT effect when you lock the screen?
It doesn't appear if you:
• reboot phone and wait at PIN-Lock. If you lock the device then, you will get that perfect effect.
Same happens if you switch to Flight Mode, reboot phone.
You will have that perfect animation every time the screen turns off until you disable Flight Mode. After that you get the crappy animation.
So the question; why?
obviously it's connected to the SIM service. But how? And what's necessary to do to fix it?
I'm no dev, but I'm confident that there's some clever people here able to clear it out.
Another thing to consider is, that someone found out that if you change LCD Density you get a clean effect, even if it is from 240 to 240. But only until you go to the Power Menu.

Anybody got this to work with s-off and root yet? I've been playing with it with no luck. I get a black screen with responsive capacitive buttons. Tried going 250, 230 and 190. Each time doing preview/temp change.
Anybody with any knowledge of build.prop know why this isn't working?
Anybody who's tried this with full s-off, you mind posting what you tried?
And yes, I know there's a thread about this from a long time ago but I couldn't bump it and things are different with s-off.
EDIT: Okay so I guess I did bump the other one. Mods feel free to delete or not, up to you.
Hi,
Have just bought the Xperia S and is still under warranty, so don't want to tamper by unlocking the bootloader yet, not for a couple of months at least. Anyways I'm quite happy with the stock ROM, bloatware and all!!
However, the only thing I'm unhappy about, is the LCD density. I'm used to a value of 160 (on my old warhorse HTC HD2 with TyphooN_CM7_v3.7.0-MAGLDR - Android 2.3.7). Now, I know it's a silly question, but is there ANY way I can alter the LCD Density without rooting it??
Thanks,
JK

Some of my friends use it with great success.
Not with out root, but i messed about with that setting myself and changing it messes things up.
Things like the text/images on some menus dont fit right anymore or are off the bottom of the screen.
Its best to leave it as it is really

What value are you trying it at? Try 220 or 160 (I'm not sure of this value on the XS - TREAD CAREFULLY). My HTC had some problems, including unavailability of Google Play downloads, but a value of 160 did the trick.

Default Density in buid.prop is 320 if i change it to 300 things are to small to fill the screen and if i go up to 330 things are to big to fit on the screen.

ICS should offer the ability to change font size, which is probably preferable to changing the screen density - with the problems with how other things fit (or don't fit) the screen.
Does anyone use the BBC News widget/app? For some reason on all Xperia models, I only get one line of text on headlines. On other models, you get two. It's clearly a fault of the app, but suggests an issue with the font Sony (Ericsson) uses. Again, I hope that ICS might fix this with the Roboto font.

I think I'll leave things as they are and wait for ICS. Could you please post some screenshots showing how it looks when you change the density? Just curious.

We just received this phone as well and will be putting a full review up soon on youtube and the site. It appears the phone is either an OEM or copy (more likely) ZP800H / ZP810. Beyond looks and specs, it installs "ZP800H" drivers when plugged into a PC.
I will have a full video review up soon on the site today and attempt some auto root methods as well.

Okay, the good news is the phone isn't bricked. Bad news is Bin4ry method certainly doesn't work. Tried both normal and special modes.
I bought this phone pre-rooted from MeriMobiles. If by the time i get it (2 weeks give or take) there is no root, i'll be happy to share a dump of the rom to help get it rooted
Caesar A9600
Just received this phone, wondering how I would go about rooting it? I have been told its a clone of the zp900H, however, mine is a quad core.

It's the OEM version of the ZP810/ZP800H. There doesn't seem to be a root yet.

Actually no, when I connect USB it states zp900H. I also asked someone online and was told that It's a clone of the zp900/H9300+

Interesting. The ZP900H is the same as ZP910. What's the screen resolution in yours? if it is a ZP900H it should be QHD

That means your phone is an A9600, not an H7500+
http://www.merimobiles.com/caesar-a...roid-4-1-2-dual-camera-1gb-ram_p/meri8002.htm
the H7500+ has a 720p screen.

Yes, that is what I said I have in my original post, I mentioned the other ones because I'm told mine is pretty much a clone of them at least with regards to size and looks of the phone. It's not too common of a phone, I haven't seen much in the way of information on this phone, just thought it was a very decent phone ( better than my SG2 in most all areas)
My son suggested maybe seeing if I could find information on rooting it, hense my post and question here.
ahhhh, i always forget you can have titles on posts on this forum >_<
I think MT6890 phones are a bit too new, thus the lack of development so far. Should pick up at least enough to get root soon
Its okay. Unfortunately the screen got cracked tonight by accident Messaged the supplier but not sure what they can do for me. I only just got the phone a few days ago. Hopefully I can send it back to get a screen replacement. Thank you for your replies.
Hi, I bought this phone also (h7500+) and I'm very pleased with it, my only problem is the GPS is having a very hard time getting a lock, so I need to root it to modify gps.conf
Anyone find a way yet?

Does your phone come with CWM or just with the stock recovery(3e)? If it has CWM installed, you can root it easily with a flashable zip file.

Thanks for the reply. I just checked, and sadly it is the stock recovery (3e). I would try to flash CWM if there was a way, but I don't think there is without a bricking yet.
I also found there is a factory mode for this phone however (pwr + vol dwn) and it contains a plethora of options, problem is, it's all in chinese. I saw an option called GPS, it was followed by chinese characters, so I was too afraid to select anything.

i saw your request to root the phone erlier today, and i have just managed to root mine.
take a look on this link, it has a detiled guide on how to root the phone.

have a nice day.
p.s. since im new to this forum, i cant post links to external sites, just remove the [dot] from the link and replace it with . and it should lead you to the website.
How did you manage to crack the screen? Is this a glass screen by the way?
I really like my H7500+, have it since March 19 and I really love the extremely great WiFi coverage. The GPS works with mine, takes about 2 to 3 minutes to get a sat lock. I tried Sygic today, just on my way home (walking) and the signal from the satellites seem to be strong enough.
great phone, a bit heavy, true, yet still a great phone.

I think because H7500+ it neither gorilla or ogs so you gotta be really careful. It's just a normal glass. you gotta be very gentle with it and put on a case

Im new into LG, but I used to run this on my Note 4 all day, with no difference at all, it will bring a positive impact on battery life as the display will push nearly half of pixels, and to be honest, we wont notice the difference on daily basis, now the $1 million question...
Does anyone knows a successful way to change the screen resolution from QHD to FHD on the LG V10???
As always any help will be much appreciate :fingers-crossed:

Thank you, yeah i knew about this app, but nothing, it doesnt work, my guess is, it has to do something with the "second screen" which we already know is only one
adb shell wm size 1920x1080 doesn't work either, don't try it
Hopefully we'll get a fix soon!
