Hi, i have a Samsung Galaxy S2 which i would like to change the Pixel Density of. It is rooted currently, but I just want to be able to read texts clearer and play my games and watch videos more sharp and crisp.. i know there are afew apps on the android market which can do this, but if i want clear/sharpness which is the recommended pixel density(240 is the default).
Also, i need something that will work perfectly on Galaxy S2, like, not make the widgets or icons or anything out of proportion...i want things to auto fit
It's in theory impossible since our display is 480 by 800.. If you want a better display sell your SGS2 and buy a Nexus
how is it impossible? there are apps which change the density...
cant i just use a custom home screen launcher?
have a look at hyperdroid. It is MDPI compatible
There is an app that magically creates more physical pixels on you screen? Wow how much is that and could it make my hdtv into a 3D tv too?.. Serious how do you think thats possible? If you want a better pixel density buy a phone with an hd screen because you definatly cannot change it...

Unless I misunderstood your question, there is no way on gods earth that you can create more pixels (ie higher density) than what there physically is.
The best you can do is to max out the screen brightness which gives the illusion of a better picture.

Of course you can change the density, just edit system/build.prop with rootexplorer..
Despite the smart answers above, I know what you mean, and love this app on my Asus TF-101

No need for that much complication, you just need to decrease the pixel value, well you can do that by editing build.prop or just use a simple app from market called LCD Resolution (Root).
But no, how on earth would you technically increase dpi while I9100 is given a 480x800 resolution hardware wise.
Wish that was possible and I could made my 1680x1050 monitor a HD one
why you would like do that ?
yes, i'm courious too, why?
I am attempting to play a very old game that only works on a very particular set of screen resolutions on my modern Android devices. The game does not scale at all and is completely unplayable without changing the resolution to one that is supported (the only one I can get to work correctly is 320x480) I have gotten this game to work using an app called NOMone Resolution Changer from the Play Store, but it is a pain to change the resolution (really screwing up the UI), launching the app, then getting out of it when I want to quit, and changing the resolution back. What I am wondering is if there is some way to make it so that when I launch the app, it will change the resolution, and then launch the app, and when I close the app, it will change it back. I am quite skilled with Android and Linux so I am willing to try anything. My device is rooted running KitKat.
Hi, I have a problem with my redmi note 4x is a problem with the mortal Kombat game and at the original resolution you can see how the game has no liquidity, I read that you need to have root and the application gltools goes wonder, the button true does not work for me, then to play xposed and app setting do as I write or what my mind tells me and the same frames can be seen as there are a lot of effects and animations in the game like flames etc, the last thing that works is by the android terminal as typing in size 720x1280 and in density 280 and then it's great extra cool but this changes the resolution of the whole phone, and I would like the phone to be original, ie 1080x1920 and 460 no, but then the game is cut, can be done to change the resolution in the game itself if so, please answer
The stock resolution is quite bad, most games comes up really blurry.
Videos and Text under normal browser and launcher is fine, just most Games are not compatible with this weird aspect ratio for the Galaxy Tab S3. :good:
Does anyone know of a mod or hack to make the Galaxy Tab S3 run at 16:9 aspect ratio resolutions?
or maybe an App that can force games into running 16:9 resolutions?

Try screen shift, requires root though.

This is awesome!,
it works!
Games looks nice as they are meant to running at 16:9, even Netflix looks better.
Hello, I installed android x86 on an old laptop to run a game. Everything is working correctly and no issues so far. Now I’m trying to run one app that only works in cellphone resolution (720x1280). Tried to change resolution with apps from playstore, resolution changed but app stoped. Tried to change resolution with terminal ( wm size 720x1280 ), resolution changed but app still stops. Then i finally remembered to edit build.prop and added (debug.drm.mode.force=720x1280) to build.prop and the app started to work, but now the resolution doesn’t fit in display, causing the image to flip and stretch in screen. Now that I’m sure that it’s a resolution problem to use the app, is there any alternatives to display things proportionally on screen without flipping all the system and apps?
Thanks and sorry for the big text
