Cm7 optical boost - XPERIA X10 Android Development

Hi guys,
Since J001 I have used as lcd density 210 instead of 240. Now I have flashed J003 and forgot to change the lcd densitiy in the build.prop before flashing and recognized how much better the rom looks with 210, so I thought I should tell it to you.
J said anywhere that this lcd density will break some apps, but I weren't able to find any app that will be broken by using this lcd density instead of the normal one. So, could you try it please and report it back if you find any app that won't work/work right with this lcd density?
I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BREAK YOUR DEVICE OR DROP YOUR COFFE
Files:
Edited Build Prop Cm7.1 J002.zip
Edited Build Prop Cm7.1 J003.zip
back to original.zip
Cheers,
L

I don't know if it can be considered an app..but Arc launcher doesn't support different lcd density!!

is creating a new thread for this actually required?
in my opinion why dont u integrate all ur CM7 related threads into one "CM7 fixes / tweaks /etc" kinda thread? u can ask the mods for some help the can do such combining-thread-stuff...
it would be really helpful...
also there is an easier/more generic way to do this change in ANY build.prop:
just run this script (include it in update.zip) thru recovery:
Code:
#!/sbin/sh
# modify ro.sf.lcd_density=240
busybox sed -i 's/ro.sf.lcd_density=240/ro.sf.lcd_density=210/g' /system/build.prop
# modify qemu.sf.lcd_density=240
busybox sed -i 's/qemu.sf.lcd_density=240/qemu.sf.lcd_density=210/g' /system/build.prop

simply copy your code into the updat-script?

no...
u will have to make a file (say "install_mod") in the root of the update.zip
and the update-script should be something like:
Code:
run_program PACKAGE:install_mod
now the contents of "install_mod" should be the ones i posted above...
u might have to also mount system before executing the script...
also do test it out... i am really tired today to sit and make these zips
will go to sleep now [not "deep sleep" ]

hi, i hope i understand it right, with broken apps did you mean they didnt fit the screen?
i change always on any custom roms the lcd.density to 190, then some apps didnt fit the screen (some games or widgets)
to fix is easy with spare.parts
-open spare.parts
-navigate to spare.parts settings
-scroll down to compatibility mode
-uncheck and check again
-reboot
-after reboot
-again open spare.parts
-navigate to compatibility mode
-uncheck
-reboot
after that the apps they didnt fit the screen, works now fine
only problem is with stock dialer, numberfield is smaller, or arc launcher will not work with this trick
edit: here are example pictures(lcd 190), before and after the trick with spare.parts

you know you could just use the lcd density changer app...;o

I've been using 220 since CM6 first was released and I can't find any apps that don't work either
