How do I go about tweaking it?

Download "Rom Toolbox" from the market [Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox&hl=en]
What your looking for is under the 'performance" section at the top, BuildProp tweaks, DPI. The higher the number the bigger the text (lower resolution), the smaller the number (higher resolution) smaller text / more items on screen.

Hi...just interested to know if people are using any alternative launchers or alternative apps such as the messaging app as opposed to the stock stuff and WHY?
Sent from my U8815 using Tapatalk 2
I use QuickPic instead of Gallery. Because you can hide folders and you don't get the network folders showing up.

What about messaging apps...don't think the stock app offers privacy mode!

I switch from back and forth from stock to the Xperia s launcher. It runs smooth on this phone and looks great too.

Anyone done this. I like the stock keyboard a lot. But it doesn't run at 240 dpi. And 320 just is ridiculous so yeah.

I'm using this one which has been modded for 240dpi on Jedi ROM. Not sure if it will work on others.

Xposed framework and xposed app settings.
It by passes the android_process and allows you to define the DPI to any app.
Xposed framework thread
Xposed App settings
It might look complicated, but its really easy honestly.
I use it. And when resizing the keyboard it doesn't work. Try it yourself. However I've been using the module and installer forever now because I don't like broken looking apps.

I use the aosp keyboard so no issues on my end lol.
I use clean rom. Bleh. And with 240 dpi samsung keyboard doesn't work. If you use xposed and set it to 320 it's oversized and isn't usable. I haven't used any aosp rom. Never had any luck with them back using the s3. Seems these phones just like touchwiz roms
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Using xposed, you need to set both setting storage and samsung keyboard to 320 dpi. I'm at 240 dpi with these settings and the keyboard works...
Sent from my SGH-I317M using xda app-developers app
I tried that and it's still big and oversized. I'm on clean rom 4.5. You?

I had that problem. I set it to 300 and it fits nicely, although there's a slightly annoying gap at the bottom when you've got handwriting mode on.
Set keyboard to 300 still no dice

Power toggles
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
Been using power toggles for a day or so. They work great. Only problem is the statusbar icon. I know I can set it to transparent but the the others kinda just hang there oddly. Unfortunately from what I understand, that is not something that I can fix it and still keep them at the top of the notifications. Oh well my ocd shall just be irked.

The one you have to put up with to have it set at high priority. You can make it a battery meter or the date or what not. You can even make it transparent, but it's still there.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
Are you sure you need that? Despite what it says in preferences, I haven't had any notifications keep it from being on top, except for the power saver which is gone now. Other than that the only other thing I can think of is to decompile the apk and replace one of those images with a blank PNG.

My mail and messages push it down if I set it any lower. As for the blank .omg, there is an option for transparent, but then any statusbar icons show up to the right of it. And just kinda hang there awkwardly.
I have the date displayed, which isn't a huge deal, it's just one of those things that irk me just a little. I'll live with it though because Newts ROM is so awesome.

Settings extended has also worked nicely for me on newtr's sense 5 port. However, I've also decompiled the relevant apks from the ROM and will see how feasible it will be to adapt a prior mod to the new ROM. I'll report back if significant progress is made in that regard.

Are you using 2 rows? If not you may be able to make a blank 2nd row and take it off high priority, then only the blank row would be covered. Of course, then you would have a blank space in your notifications.

Hi,
I always hate the dialer screen of my S Advance! Even using Ex Dialer, I only can change my contacts list, but no dialer screen, and I hate it. For me is lazzy, lagging and with a old interface.
There are another secphone.apk for S Advance that I can install or flash?
I looking for it here in XDA but I can't find.
Thanks!

The only way you can get a faster SecPhone (didn't try but using common sense here) is have smaller images... i.e. using lower quality images or compressed images ( images like the keypad buttons, the top nav bar etc...) so they would load faster...
P.S. Your profile pic creeps me out.

How do you change the resolution in any ROM? I like it to look like Slim Rom for the Nexus.

Dpi you mean? Gotta change your build.prop

You must have root and you can use rom toolbox to edit build prop files.

Flash viper rom it has a built in tool for that. Running at 400 dpi and its ****ing awesome
If you change it you'll need to install the multi-dpi play store apk
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Since you're wanting to run desensed, I think if you run a third party lockscreen you can change the DPI to 320.
You'll need an app like market enabler and a custom lock screen and I'm thinking I'm missing one other thing useful but can't think of it.
If you check out JWhetstone02 (he has an inverted menus thread in apps and themes DNA subforum) and look through his posts he's got a lot of pointers and small DPI screenshots.
