Thanks for the sharing. I am considering to change the LCD density but not comfortable to root yet (still reading and learning....).
1) Can you help post the screenshot on home screen, app folder screen. If possible, can you install the CNN News and post this app home screen etc. Due to original 160 setting, the font on CNN News is extremely small.
2) Can you help posting the above with 240 setting.
3) Any problem install app thru market (i heard market can only install with 160 or 240 LCD)? Anyway I am prepared to reinstall the old mkt version as it does not has this limitation.
Sorry to trouble you and appreciate your helps and sharing.
Hi,
Rooting is actually quite easy. Give the link below a try, so you can see it for yourself

thanks for the app recommendation. But my tab went crazy after switching density. gmail force closed, calendar force closed... it because quite unstable. Reset back to default density, and removed program. All good again.
kernel 2.6.36.3_motley_v2+
android 3.2
Strange, did you set it to 170?
not sure if I can tell a difference.. icons seem to look larger on the screen...
market and apps will act up if you change density. switch back to the default values to fix this.

I believe it's 170, at least according to the specs listed at GSMArena.com.
I'm not sure I understand the advantage of doing this. My display looks beautiful as it is.

This question is directed to anyone who knows the inner workings of the vending.apk and the android market itself. Through another post about density settings, it seems pretty apparent that, while having density set at 161 allows all the apps in the market to show up, there are still plenty of apps that won't actually RUN unless you are set at 160/159. So it turns into a Catch 22 situation. I know I have used device spoofing via an altered build.prop (or an apk that does the same) for getting apps to appear that are 'proprietary' to other, specific devices, but I'm wondering if it MIGHT be possible to spoof the market into reading our Nooks at being 161 devices, while we are actually at 160 while within our rom (I'm on CM7). This has probably been proposed somewhere else, but I couldn't locate a thread...Anyone have any input about this possibility? If something like this is NOT possible, please let the users know also, if you have a minute. Thanks for looking...(Idea..could we get a secondary "market161" .apk created that we could use indepedently of the one in the latest Gapps to achieve the desired effect?)
You could write a widget that toggles ro.sf.lcd.density in build.prop between two values, and then use Tasker to toggle the widget when you open the Market (and flip it back when you leave it). But I'm not sure if the Market checks the value in build.prop or what the device is currently using, so it might require a reboot instead.
My Density is set at 200 and everything works just fine (including both Market and Maps).
Mine is set at 240 (need new glasses?) and everything seems to be ok
Trust me...there are enough that don't run at 200....otherwise I wouldn't have bothered posting. 160 seems to be magic for compatibility/scaling, and 160+X gets best market access.

I actually would assume the 240 would work.. since it's 1 of the 3 native android app densities that devs mass market through compatibility mode to ensure mucho marketshare (120,160,240)..but the icons and such at 240 are just too huge ...can't do it...reminds me of those physical phones with humongous buttons that people have in their house. When I see someone using a new tablet, like take the Galaxy, I can tell pretty much immediately whether they're running stock from the look of their homescreen...Huge, ghastly, labeled icons +(bloatware)=someone not using their device to the full potential, and that makes my inner nerd sad. Nope, even if I go blind I won't do 240....if only because "it just LOOKS stock. The same reason SPB mobile lasted about a week on my nook.

It's a pain sometimes, since everything is buried under submenus. I don't think there's anything else comparable, though.
The reason I have the density set at 161 isn't because apps are filtered. It was due to a bug in the Market apk and the Maps apk. Maps 5.1.x would crash on startup on tablets with LCD density 160. Google has fixed this with the most recent version. Unfortunately, Google has not fixed the Market yet. Tablets+160 causes the "my apps" list to not populate.

Thanks so much for saving me from making this a bigger issue than it is...I don't need " my apps " to populate since I'm tethered to my Evo about 95% of the time, where they naturally all populate ...I'll just bump it down to 160 permanently, and if ever it becomes something I absolutely need, Ill just bump it back....Thanks for all your amazing work..Donation on the way when I get home from work.

There are just some apps that wont run / scale correctly unless its at 160... they will just hang and load 4 ever or force close unless they are set at 1 of the 3 native densities for android application development... at least that's what I can glean.. no difference though in appearance, unless you're a cyborg.

oh this is why my app list wouldnt populate. it doesnt bother me most of the time. everyone seems to have their dpi set for so low. i have mine at 132.33 if i remember it right. can't be any bigger than 140 for sure.
can anyone give me an example of an app that crashes or does not show up on the market due to density conflicts?
the reason i ask is because i run hyperdroid on my HD2 at the default 167. this setting is just plain awesome compared to the 240. i have never had an issue with apps not showing up or crashes / anything due to resolution at this size.
or is this one of the default dev res' and i'm just talking nonsense.
let me know so i can test on my hd2.

Hello, has anyone had any success with modifying the screen density on a Samsung Galaxy player 5.0?
I'm rooted and considering using an app such as LCD Density Modder Pro or perhaps even manually editing the build.prop file. Before I do this I'd like to know if anyone has also tried this and how successful it was.
The reason why I ask is because after a forum search I found that someone had tried unsuccessfully to do so: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18045727&highlight=density#post18045727

Changed the Density on my 5.0 to 200 and i actually like the slightly more scaled down nature of everything. You might run into a button or two that's slightly off because of this but in general the pros outweigh the cons.

I used Root Explorer to change the density directly from the build.prop file. It just seemed like a better idea than using an application to do it for me.

Alot of Custom ROMS allow easy changing of the DPI, Seems your limiting your potential market.

I completely understand the complexity of the multi DPI.
But has anyone considered some pre defined DPI's
So at least the user can get a Near Enough DPI, and then tweaking the theme to fit perfectly is only minimal changes.
Again just a theory, I have never really worked on DPI.

There's a strange relationship with a device's DPI and resolution, which is why many device aren't supported (such as the G3). We've tried what you've suggested, however "near-enough" isn't what the average user wants

Hi, unfortunately the Mega isn't supported just yet due to its resolution. Hopefully it will be soon though!
I have a rooted Nexus 5 with SlimKat ROM running. SlimKat changes the DPI by default, but using BuildProp Editor I changed it to the stock 445 DPI. However, Themer says my resolution is wrong. If I set Themer as my default launcher, I can press the home button and see the default Themer appearance, I just can't download anything from the app. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have Sony T2 ultra Dual. although its resolution doesn't support for themer. but after root, when I change its DPI value to 320, now its resolution is 1184*720. and themer is working perfect on it. May be it will help.
Hi all,
I have found a way to change the dpi without root, just using adb and cmd and it worked like a charm...well, almost. There are a couple of UI glitches that appear when you reduce (or increase for that matter) the dpi.
Firstly, the icons on the home screen mess up, but that's not SUCH an issue as you can install another launcher or in my case, find an icon pack that doesn't show the mess up quite as much (my preferable choice because you see the icons set in different areas of the UI, such as the notifications shade and recents menu, settings, etc.)
Secondly, and the most annoying, is the crop function messes up in the weirdest way. Whether it be when changing wallpaper or trying to crop a picture in CamScanner, the image you choose appears zoomed in and there is no way to zoom out or even move the image around, only zoom in further.
Now, my question is, has anyone managed to find a suitable dpi that MIUI does not have a problem with, or are there some standard dpi's MIUI uses apart from 480? Or has anyone found a way around any of these issues (or any other issues they may have encountered when changing the dpi)? Last but not least, is there a custom version of MIUI out there, or a rom that has it's visuals (and camera app) but custom tailored to suit various dpi's and other modifications?
I really cannot live with the stock dpi of 480, it's like using a phone made for old people, waaaay too large EVERYTHING on a large screen, I want to see more on a large screen. But I also am not yet prepared to go off MIUI as I really like their UI, visually, and I know any other rom will lose a lot of camera quality amoungst some other things like battery life, etc.
Thanks guys in advance for any advice.

No, the original is 480, which is too large...where did you get the number 386 from? perhaps it is another one of their phone's stock DPI, which means MIUI might not warp on this DPI value? Will check it out, but any information you have, please let me know

No, no need....as long as you have ADB drivers installed and you are launching the CMD from within the ADB folder, it will work. Oh and of course USB debugging enabled and the first time it tried to access the phone for ADB details, you will need to allow it to by hitting remember and ok on the phone

The original isn't near 386. I went down to 380 and everything it far smaller than a 6 dpi difference. I'd say stock is closer to 430 - 450
Yes man, you was right the original DPI is 440, the app textdroiderDPI was showing me an incorrect value of 386 (maybe a little bug...).
Setting it on 440 with LeDpiChanger gave me a full stock MIUI size

You can use Xposed / AppSettings . Then set dpi to a huge number, or the screen size to a huge number. One of these should work. I had tabs, and wanted to switch, so that's what I did:

good idea, I'm on the latest version updated thru play store. guess it's be worth trying the beta, dev or canary versions. thanks again.
I got this to work using dpi of 213. You can also use 160 but I found the tabs too small and fiddly with that setting.

indeed, both settings work just as hoped for in the initial post. unfortunately I can only thank you here the once.
