LCD Density in short and easy words, changes the view of the screen, adjusting the screen density higher will make your screen appeared zoomed out more, allowing you to see more, and lowering it should make everything enlarged.
I'm sure he meant "where to download it?"

wew nice one!!
works perfect with LeeDroids 2 and LeeDroids kernel
first option (do not reboot) didnt worked, i had to use the "kill" option (it performs a reboot then)
density at 200:
works perfect at htc sense with alot of widgets (no space left lol).
just some small (expected) things like a small "space" above the app drawer menue

or white space left, next to the dialer

however, at density 180 the device doesnt boot up anymore (stuck at bootscreen)
batterypulldown helped ^^
w/ 260 ive no issues.
w/ 280 (WOW THATS BIIIG) everything is fine (except at the dialer: the no. 3 / 6 / 9 / # are "squeezed" and smaller, seems like the dialer img size is kinda fixed, so its getting squeezed ^^
w/ 300 (for blind peoples xD?) everything is fine, but dialer and some text inside of widgets (or text / names under apps at the homescreen) are more squeezed... .
Not sure if people know, but instead of installing another app you can just open your build.prop in the system folder and edit the line:
ro.sf.lcd_density=220(whatever number)
I don't see the point of installing another app just so I can change something that can be changed with a quick .prop edit. Also it can be changed in any ROM, its a system default line of code that is on every android system. Even if you only have your phone rooted with the stock ROM it can still be done.

^^ What he said.
PLUS the permissions needed by this app don't make any sense:
NETWORK COMMUNICATION
FULL INTERNET ACCESS
Allows an application to create network sockets.
PHONE CALLS
READ PHONE STATE AND IDENTITY
Allows the application to access the phone features of the device. An application with this permission can determine the phone number and serial number of this phone, whether a call is active, the number that call is connected to and the like.
i dont care (alot) about the permissions: there are Privacy Controll apps like LBE for this

FlashLight v7 FINAL - Multi-lamp in flash

I wanted to make a flashlight in flash for some time now... The idea to use the pocket as a light is very useful and sometimes even necessary, either not to wake up someone, see in some dark stairs, getting late to the movies, etc etc...
But since in reality its just a blank image on the screen, I never worried about it, all I needed was a lighter theme on the today to use it as a light for most cases.
Recently I "saw the light" with this great example, that has many more practical uses:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=456908
The software on the link above shows a application that uses the camera flash on WM machines, but most Pocket PC's don't have that hardware.
So I though of making something similar, but only for the screen, for all those that don't have a camera flash, but have Adobe flash! ^_�
The idea of this software is not only a quick flashlight (that you can have on a hardware key or icon, so that you have an easy access), but also many other uses.
So I made a semi-hidden touchscreen menu that gives access to all these light applications:
- LAMP, a simple white screen.
- Strobe, to call for attention (or hypnotize someone �_o).
- Fader, with fade-in/fade-out light, like a lighthouse.
- SOS, that spells s.o.s in morse code.
- Disco, random bright colorful lights, like a disco.
- PEN, in which you can draw temporary light forms.
- Starlight animation (heavy on CPU).
- LOVELYGHT, just a visual test, also good for the loved ones.
- LIGHTER , for fun on a concert, as you can see on the picture.
- Match, pretty much like lighter.
- Candle, pretty much like match, with a twist.
- Eye of mordor, for geeks like me.
- LightSaber with sounds. Press top, middle or bottom of the screen for diferent effects, or use your keypad.
- Android boot animation
- Knight rider fade.
- Evil eyes on the dark.
- Firefly, click for interaction.
- Bicycle light, click to brake.
- Customize, only for some models that dont light up on the opening, still with bugs.
- Exit, obviously to leave the application, you can also use the ENTER (in the middle of the keypad) at any moment.
To use:
As you enter the app, it places you pocket's screen on full bright mode and removes any fade-out and stand-by option. As you exit it restores your previous settings.
If you click on the screen while on the LAMP area, it changes between 8 colors.
If you click on the FADER screen, it changes between 5 colors.
If you click on the SOS screen, it allows you to create your own morse code, just click and hold your finger on the screen for it to remain white (still with bugs), if you don't click it for a while it goes back to the automatic SOS.
To use you just need FLASH 7, place the EXE anywhere on your pocket pc and create a shortcut to the start menu (you can use Resco Explorer for that).
For non-VGA/QVGA screens:
Unfortunatly the tool I use to make the EXE files only allows qvga and vga screen sizes... If you know another SWF>EXE tool that fixes this, let me know.
New version 4:
Interactive lighter (open/close on click), with sound.
SOS interactivity works now (just need to drag the finger across the screen to make it white).
Better exit (for flash lite 3, not tested).
New version 5:
Fixed a exit sound bug
Added a "show taskbar" on exit, for those ppl having problems exiting the app.
Added android boot animation
Added star light animation (heavy on CPU).
Added LightSaber with sounds. Press top, middle or bottom of the screen for diferent effects, or use your keypad.
Was going to add a christmas music to the star light area, but it sounded corny.
---//---
Final version 7 (v6 was mainly bugfixes):
- More stuff
- New customizable regkeys values (if you need them).
- Source code released (flash 8 FLA)
Compatibility: WM5/6 (it also works on WM2003, but I dont know if it places the screen on maximum brightness)
Tested in: HTC Touch Dual
I will try it when I get home. It looks very interesting.
Thanks.
lol. so cool
Thanks for sharing, but in my diamond doesn't work, I get an error related to a missed certificate.
EDIT: I made a mistake creating the shortcut, now works fine, very nice!

Hi,
Here is the next release of hdSpeedo.
It has been tested on a HTC Touch HD and Diamond, but should work on any WM device with a GPS feed.
New Features
Journey stats saved in /My Documents/hdSpeedo
Tidied up the /My Documents/hdSpeedo folder.
Error logging to file
Display of Max speed. This swaps every 15 secs with the AVG speed
Planned Features
Looking at making the application skinnable
Bug Tracking
None noted at the moment
Please see attached file for full version history.
There are two buttons on the speedo page, one will log your current position, the other will start logging your track.
These write to KML files which you can load into Google Earth as below.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

*** Please note that this application requires the SQL CE Framework installed ***
Otherwise you get the following error.
"An unhandled exception occured Can't find PInvoke DLL 'sqlceme35.dll"
Please install SQL CE from the cab found here.
Please bear in mind that I have written this for my own use and am quite happy to put this out for others to use. I will take on board suggestions, but will continue to develop this at my own pace.
Many Thanks,
Paul Ryder.
Thanks for you application.
I see the bars on the top left corner. Is it GPS signal status ? If so, why the bars is still there when I stop GPS ?

Great little application. Thank you.
A suggestion, perhaps an adjustable speed warning. IE change screen colour when over a set top speed. (or even stages of screen colour changes ie at 30/50/80 etc)
Thanks again
I noticed the name of your app "GPS Speedo" but some one already has that name for there GPS app over @ http://www.tchartdev.com/
So it'll get confusing to know whats what between the two.
Hi Ralph,
Tried your application yesterday and today and seems to be working fine. Speed shows nicely, AVG seems to be correct.
Some pointers you might wanna consider;
1- The font could be more clear. The "greyed" lines are a bit too visible I think
2- Are the gps records logged? You could integrate this into some kind of export. For people (like myself) who drive the same route to work every day, it would be fun to see some statistics..
3- Max. speed warning (no sound effects, please )
If I come up with something else, ill let you know. Thanks for the nice app!

1 - Still not decided on the font yet, I like the matrix style, but was going for the grid behind it. I might just remove that.
2 - They are not logged yet, I just need to know how people want it logged?
Raw nmea sentences
KML files to use in Google Earth
Or another way
3 - I though of this, how would you like it. Single speed or stepped as suggested before?
I am also going to provide logging for the trip, times/distance/(ave/max) speed etc
Cheers,
Paul.

Hmm, All I do is install the two fonts, I know that WM will use the best choice font, but that's a bit silly.
I'm going to remove this one from the next release. Try going to \windows\fonts and deleting the Font that Ends in A___.ttf.

Happened the same to me...
Looks like the apps that are being affected are missing a font, I had this with the Facebook app installed by default on Dutty's Leo R4.
Windows Mobile tries to be clever if you select a font and it's not on the device, it chooses the one closest in size (I think) to the one it's trying to use, thus you get some Random effects.
I'll see if I can restrict the font to only be used by my app, deleting the font will revert your other apps back to normal.

But also 'cause GPS Speedo to become unusable? I didn't try though..
It is still usable, but the Gray background looks even worse.
At least your other apps are usable again.
I'll get an update out at the weekend.

Active developer +1
First change.
Removed one of the fonts as it was making other apps unusable, thanks MS..
Also changed the name as GPS_Speedo isn't unique by any means.
Remove previous version if installed.
Unzip the cab file, copy to device and kick off install with file manager.
Cheers,
Paul.
This is a great application Paul, my 300ZX's speedometer does not work, so I use this app as an alternative and help me stay in the speed limit. Cops always watching me if I passed the limit in the highway
I'd just like to recommend that nobody bother with this anymore. Just switch over to CM7 nightly builds, most are stable enough for regular use.

REQUIREMENTS
CM6.1 for the HTC Legend
CM6.1-Gingertheme.v6.1.LEGEND.zip courtesy of Sympnotic - Download provided below.
LauncherPro (Recommended) OR Gingerbread Launcher
*** NOTE: Gingerbread Launcher 3D Free does not work on the Legend.
Icons (if using LauncherPro) courtesy of Benny879 @ the LauncherPro Forum - Download provided below.
Gingerbread Keyboard by Fabolous @ Droid Forums
LCDDensity
Livewallpaper from Gingerbread
*** NO METAMORPH REQUIRED!
STEPS
*** DO A BACKUP FIRST!!!
Flash CM6.1-Gingertheme.v6.1.LEGEND.zip
Select STOCK_Black theme in CM settings. (User interface --> Tweak Extras)
Flash the keyboard and select Android Keyboard in text input.
Open up LCDDensity and set to 240 then restart.
Open up LCDDensity again, set to 160 (default), and restart again (this is to fix the unusually small size of the new keyboard).
Use the icons to give the LauncherPro dock the Gingerbread look. DO NOT FLASH THE ICON ZIP FILE just extract it and customize through the LauncherPro menu. Alternatively, you can use the Gingerbread Launcher in the Market, but it does not have support for a 3D app drawer.
Set wallpaper to "Nexus" live wallpaper.
BUGS
Rebooting the phone will cause the keyboard to return to its small state again. You'll have to repeat steps 4 & 5 to correct it.
After flashing the theme from Sympnotic, the CM theme options may appear as a blank menu with one checked radio next to it. Check it again, leave the menu, go back, and STOCK_Black should be there.
After flashing CM6.1-Gingertheme.v6.1.LEGEND.zip I got stuck at the Cyanogenmod boot screen. I had to power it down then power it back up for it to properly boot. Everything was fine after.
"Add Call" button appears lower than the "End" and "Dialpad" buttons (See Post #5). Flash CM6.1-Gingertheme.v6.1.LEGEND.zip to fix. Thanks to Sympnotic.
MISSING FEATURES
New live wallpaper as seen on the Nexus S. Fake Nexus S live wallpaper added!
Official Nexus S live wallpaper.
Orange colour burst when reaching the end of a menu.
Sleep animation.

Hey thanks. Also, you ever think about making the notification bar slightly transparent? I think that would look real nice. Just a thought. I'd do it myself but have thus far be unable to figure out how.

I'm just trying to learn this stuff too. Right now I'm relying on Sympnotic for the theme and I'm not sure if there are any plans for a transparent version. Maybe in the future if I can figure it out myself.
@jaStrom: Just want to ask you something. Did you sign framework-res.apk after you apply the theme? And did you zipaligne the modified apks?

No and no. I didn't create the required files mentioned in the first post. All I did was flash/install the required items, made sure everything worked, then posted exactly how I did it. I'm still in the process of learning about how to properly use the SDK, so I've been relying on more advanced users' work.
That doesn't mean that it isn't zipaligned or signed, I just don't know since I didn't make it. Why? Are you experiencing slower performance?

Hi, I did the theme, and no, i'm not signing or zipaligning it, I'm too lazy to do that as I'm always replacing things at the last moment before flashing and testing it, but I'm moving files from .zip to .zip to prevent issues concerning signing.
Properly recompiled (w/o errors) framework-res.apk using apktool (supposedly fake signed) gives me bootloops.
I'll grab the fake-sign java thing just in case and will find some infos about it.

Legend version using your framework-res.apk, could you try ?

Gave it a try and everything works well. The new unlock animation is cool! The 'call' button is still lower than the 'end' and 'dialpad' buttons though. It doesn't cause any practical problems, it's just odd. Thanks for the Legend version!

Thought I'd share a 'fix' for your TouchPads if you don't want to be tied to 120 or 160 dpi (which btw look good but still..).
Now we all now the edit build.prop or dpi change apps but this one is pretty neat.
It allows you to manually set your desired DPI (f.e. 132 as the TP should be) but also comes with a solution for 'breaking' your market. The app will Fix your Market compatibility issues by modding your Market.apk into thinking you are using the market at f.e. 120 DPI. You can do this for any DPI change
Guide:
1) Install LCD Density Modder Pro here (official Android Market link)
2) Open app (only for root users but if you are running Android on your TP...)
3) set your DPI
4) Save as System DPI (perma + reboot) or
4a) Temp Apply (fast reboot and is merely there to see if your chosen DPI looks good)
5) after reboot hit "Fix Market compatibility issues"
6) Download modded Market.apk for the PDI you want the market to think you have (either 120 or 160 DPI, depends which file you installed from CM9)
7) Install Mod
8) Asks you to reboot so that the 'new' Market.apk works
9) voilá!
(note: instructions will also appear when opening app)
I hope this isn't considered something 'not done' on this forum as I am merely linking to an official apk on the market and points TP users in the right direction.
Good luck!
ps: credits go to anthonyjcasagrande aka theb1rdm4n for developing
great write up! will be sure to do this when i actually get my touchpad lol

That's gotta be the most expensive app on the market, 3 dollars to change 3 digits? Craaaaaaaaaaaaazy...
If you look at it that way, yes... but handy for peeps, ofcourse can just edit the build.prop but it allows you to receive fixed market aswell for any DPI.
Anyways only posted so peeps know of it's availibility

That also changes your DPI for you yes, the app won't 'fix' the market issues for you though.
There is a thread out there that lets you install a modded Market.apk, but the app I describe does it both, but you are right.. there are a lot of ways to do it. This one does it in both.
Not saying this app is the holy grail but a handy tool.
I know there is a thread over on rootzwiki with instructions on how to get the market to work after changing the DPI.
Three bucks to change the DPI is a really nutz.

I thank it's a great apk. easy
Hey guys, for ages I've been hearing people talk about changing LCD density etc and decided to give it a try using this app (free version).
Anyway, I changed the dpi on my S2 from 240 to 160 and although it looks much better in most instances, the actual homescreen/s are much smaller with only about 60% being used up.
Is this normal? I was under the impression that only the icon sizes would change but not the entire homescreen.
The dock is still at the bottom however but a large part above that is empty.

is the space entirely not usable?
After you have rebooted to make the DPI changes take effect, you often have to redrag the apps (and widgets) you use from your apps screen to your homescreen(s).
When changing the build.prop I always 'clear' my homescreens to be sure and then replace what I want.
Changing your DPI however shouldn't make a big proportion of your screen not usable.
Also I can recommend this thread for 'mobile' issues since I only use this app on my Touchpad. It's the b1rdm4n's original thread about his app

Hey, cheers for letting me know and submitting it
Hadn't seen it myself but hope TP (and more Androidusers) will use it.
My TouchPad is currently running at 160dpi (having previously manually edited it to 120 then manually edited it back to 160)
When I run the app and select a different DPI I hit apply, it reboots and the TP is still at 160 dpi. The app appears not to work at all.
Anyone have any idea why?

If you manually edited your build prop, you might want to try to flash Dalingrins 120 or 160 DPI.zip (it's in his original Rootzwiki thread) to original (build.prop) settings.
After that, start the app again, change the DPI and hit "Save as System DPI (Reboot)". I think you already did that but I didn't manually edit the build.prop before using this app so it might have something to do with there, I am not sure though since it was a direct hit for me when using this app.
Nice idea.
I flashed the 120dpi package, rebooted and the TouchPad had changed to 120dpi as expected. I then ran LCD Density Modder and it correctly reported 120dpi.
I changed it to 132dpi in the app and hit "Save as System DPI", it asked for, and got root permission, rebooted the TouchPad and once again I am back at 120dpi.
The app just doesn't do anything for me

Sorry to hear.
Hmm last suggestion: manually set the DPI to 132 (editing build.prop yourself), reboot. At this point ignoring the app.
If the DPI is succesfully set as 132 open the app, click fix market compatible function, let it download the modded market.apk (let it think market is set at 120 DPI) and reboot.
I know you are not fully using the app as it's supposed too then but just trying to help you
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yes, a bit overpriced.... as in way overpriced....
Couple of questions:
1) Does the app disable the Market Updater so you won't get a newer market next time Google pushes one?
2) Has the app fixed the problem with the original patch from rootzwiki, in that after some time, apps _still_ revert to not compatible, and you have to clear market data. Or is it just downloading that apk that anyone can go get for free?

Yeah, the empty space on the homescreen/s is not usable. I tried removing then replacing widgets but still the same thing. Might try again later with a fresh rom flash.

Thought it might benefit everyone if we had a thread covering the customizations you've added for apps to DAGr8's Hybrid ROM. This could be useful for everyone to pre-setup a hyb.prop -- and especially DAGr8 for putting together a useful out of the box hyb.prop file.

do you have it working at a lower dpi?
Not sure if someone already has covered this:
The asus weather resized that comes in various AOSP widget repacks
To get to the save button on setttings.
hy.weather.resized.ics.dd=180
That will allow the 'save' button to show on screen.
Now question.
What's the difference between # SYSTEM and # APPS?
Is there a sure way to find the app name? Like the calendar example higher up it's different.

Install RC4 and they hybrid_213.zip. That will put the files in your /system with a lot of the settings pre-populated.
The OP of the ROM has a breakdown on the files
I use ES file explorer to manage files and edit.
Just go into settings of ES and setup root and /system access.

I dunno if you saw my edits above- but DaG already had hy.calender.dd=320 listed, so whenever i added one, it was ignored.

What are you using in your build.prop density?
What dpi is everyone using on there keyboard settings. 213 is fine on the Samsung keyboard but makes for tiny keys on swype and swiftkey x/beta changing it to 260 pushes part of the keyboard off screen. When i changed default.user.prop (or whatever it is) in hyb.prop the phone wouldn't boot leaving me to reflash.. Any idea are welcome
