i have changed it from
ro.sf.lcd_density=160

ro.sf.lcd_density=150
but when i flash the rom the density is 160

When you flash new rom build.prop file replaces old build.prop file

I'm working on 120 dpi

I tried to change the dpi, but when calling to someone the dialer crashes, even if i use exdialer!
Anyone know how to resolve this? I'm using rom Blackhawk XWKT7 based on stock...

Do not change dpi on stock . It screws the dailer

What density did u keep it on?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App

DOnt Change on Stock/stock based ROMS
Changing the screen Density on Stock ROMs/or Stock Based ROMs will crash the dialer and u won't be able to use any custom dialer too. So if you are on stock ROM i would recomend not to change the screen density. It will mess up your dialer

Your camera must have a problem . Reflash the ROM .
Use LCD Resolution to change the density

120 works for me on cm7.....
No fc for any apps....

[Q] Removing standard laucher?

I am using CM7.1 build by grif and that one has ADW launcher by default. Can i remove it with titanium backup and install GO launcher or will that crash something? I'm a beginner, so thanks for probably a simple answer.
Install Go launcher first and then remove ADW. It wont crash

Install the other launcher, set defaults to it. (maybe even turn it to a system app using titanium backup). and remove the old launcher with titanium backup.
I have done it and there are no issues so far.. cheers
Can the system app thing be done for iLauncher and replace ADW Launcher? CM7. 2

Yes, but first try to make iLauncher a system app (do not remove adw), reboot your phone and see whether iLauncher works properly or not and then remove adw launcher

Titanium backup is useless. Download root explorer or file manager app from market. After downloading, open root explorer or file manager. Go to sd card or data/app and copy go launcher ex's apk and paste it in system/app and set permissions to
RW-
R--

Reboot and enjoy.

Higher resolution

Hi all.
A few months ago i was running Slim ICS. And everything on that rom was smaller. Like a higher resolution. Can i get this on RR3.0.6 with Dorimanx 5.78?
Kind regards
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
All you need is to change your phone's dpi. Default setting is 240 dpi, if you want everything smaller than you should set lower value (220, 200, 182 or even 160).
You can do this by editing build.prop system file or use dpi changer app. Root is needed.
i9.0.1.3k galaxy imperator
What you wanna do is change the dpi. You could use apps such as Nitrality or DPI Changer from the app store to do this. Be warned changing the dpi could cause problems with Play Store.
Before you do this, have a tried changing the font size in display settings? RR v3.0.6 has the option to set font size and the smallest option kinda looks great already without having to do the above procedure.

... i changed the dpi. Phone wont boost anymore. Had to reflash rr3.0.6
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
How low did you reduce the dpi to? Try out 220, 210 or 200. See if they work. Shouldn't be a problem in my opinion.

Don't edit your DPI with an app of you're on Android 4.1. Go to your build.prop file in /system/ and then find "ro.sf.lcd_density=240" and change the 240 to whatever you want your DPI at. Save & reboot and you shouldn't have any problems.

have you heard about ROM toolbox before? I think it's time you do some research

Use ROM toolbox lite to change your DPI. I have set my DPI to 184 on my S2 running RR 3.0.6. I have no problem at all. All apps are are working fine including play store.

You Can Also Try Xposed Framework With Xposed App Settings For Per App dpi Settings Instead Of Changing it In build.prop
