I don't have such problem. Have you changed the permission to write the file?
You can also try pull the file out, altered it and push back again.
I change mine to 280dpi and only thing that is wrong is misalignment of dialpad, so I use Acontact instead.

when you are using root explorer, ensure you pressed the "r/w" button in the right upper corner.

Thanks that worked

[Q] eclipse 1.3/stock keyboard on cm7??

Anyone happen to have the apk for the stock keyboard? I would like to have it on my cm7 rom. Is this even possible since its the blur keyboard? Maybe I'm just SOL? Anyone have any input on this? I hate the keyboard that comes with cm7. I'm using swift key now but I really likes the stock keyboard.

I've wondered that myself. I imagine it should work. Make a nandroid, push it into system apps, fix permissions, reboot and see what happens. You may have to change your input method.

My weather widget always displays a numeral 1 in a Sun icon next to the time. I have no idea what this is for ? Whatever it means I seem to find no way to make it vanish.
Any ideas ?
I believe the 1 could be for DST, but I could easily be wrong.
I seen that to in the home screen thread and was wondering what it was to

Ok how do you get this thing to update your location on its own? Every time I got to do it it manually in my locations. Is there something I'm missing?

Xposed App Settings & keyboards

I was wondering if anyone knows of any work around to get the keyboard scaled right. I have everything apps and all dpi set to 370. That seems to be a sweet spot. The only problem I'm having is the keyboard. I'm stock rooted. Here is a screen shot. Currently I'm writing everything outwith my S-pen.
Maybe because I'm using the xda app I can't see the picture, but you did post a picture correct?

(Q) changing DPI

I'm on stock firmware MJ7 rooted and want to change my dpi settings. I've done this before on various roms, but want to ask what app should I use and is it safe?
Just don't want to end up in a bootloop or something so any help would be appreciated.

Just install xposed framework and download the dpi mod in xposed download tab.

Alright I have xposed too so I'll try that, I just wanted to check on here and see what people were using.
My last phone I had issues with doing this and since I'm not running a custom recovery or anything, I wanted to be sure first. Thanks though I'll give that a try.

The one on xposed is per app dpi. Which is still cool, but I was looking for setting the system itself. Wish I didn't have this jacked up bootloader so I could just run paranoid Android or another rom and I'd have all these options built in. This is the first time I've run xposed on a phone and first time looking into an app or module for dpi settings so... I'll search and see what else I can find. Again just want to do it safely. I know I could just grab some app and hope for the best but wanted some feedback first that's all.

That does work. You have to do a reboot then it looks good. .All except the keyboard. It's huge. So I apparently I'll have to fiddle with swiftkeys dpi settings to see if I can scale it down to look normal. Not sure why the keyboard didn't take the settings like everything else did after I changed "Android system"
Also. .. Samsung keyboard looked the same. .huuuge
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well I use nova and for now I just changed novas dpi and get the same results and my keyboard is all good too. Maybe I was just overlooking something but I tried changing both Samsung and SwiftKey dpi settings after I did Android system and nothing seemed to help, either to big or way too small.
For now this works.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Good deal, I'm pretty sure there are other mods out there that'll change the dpi also. Might want to try them out.

I know I'm way late at responding here. But what dpi do you personally use? I remeber on my note 2 I would use 160 to 175 but It had a bigger screen.
