It's running fine for me with DAGr8's alpha 2 but my DPI is 320.

Yea so I switched between 320 and 240...it seems google took out 240 support with this update. Oh well, the older version was working well enough for me anyways.
I know it sounds snobby or whatnot but it really is hard to go back to 320 after a week at 240...

Off topic, but what I did as a compromise was stay at 320 dpi, then used an app called Big Font to set the system font to 75%.

Good idea. I'll check that out in the morning.
I looked around a bit and it seems the Nexus folks are having the exact same DPI issues. Hopefully google will get on this before too long.

Ah...lol. Yes, I should have thought about that first.

Chrome Beta runs fine on the stock leak, but its slower than the stock browser.

Open Rom Toolbox
go over the the Performance Column
click build.prop Tweaks
or open build.props Editor and look at the ro.sf.lcd.density

So I tried 280 dpi and chrome works great. Actually liking this dpi for everything else as well... Think I'm gonna stay here.

240dpi was crashing for me as well. I changed to 241dpi and it works fine. Not sure how this will effect the market though.

Dissapointed.
Well IMHO I think it is awesome. The syncing works great. Can't figure out how to swipe between tabs like on the phone version though. Text entry into open fields is much better than stock. Also a neat feature when a bunch of links are close together this magnified pop up window opens to let you choose. See the screenshot attached.
Start with your finger on the bezel, and swipe onto the screen. If you have multiple tabs open you will notice it highlights a certain tab depending how much you go left or right.
It's pretty sensitive so it's easy to miss what it's doing at first.
I dont mind it so far. I like that it is reminiscent of the desktop version.
Bookmark pages could be more attractive.
Seems everyone is a little harsh for a BETA

Can I get the apk? Not downloading on the market.
Any word if this is being ported to Honeycomb?
This is replacing any browser that I use.
I agree with K Rich.

Display Density Help

Hello All,
I have rooted my GN2 and loaded the ROM Toolbox from the play store. I have set the ro.sf.lcd_density to 240 and everything works great except the dialer and mail program (not gmail) The screen does not look correct even though the dialer buttons function correctly.
I have used the Paranoid Android Rom on my old galaxy note and it had per app resolution. Is there a way to edit the dialer and mail to make it look correct.
Thanks,
J
Interested to know about this as well, as I'd like to adjust my density. Have you tried 241? Does it help any? I heard the camera is off too @ 240.

Yep just tested camera and its off. It works just off.
Any help out there.

I don't understand. I use Rom toolbox constantly to change fonts. I even used fonts from toolbox and converted to bold type font.
I'm having this exact same problem so I didn't want to start a new thread. I've tried ROM Toolbox and probably half a dozen other font changing apps and none of them work. They all request (and are granted) su but after rebooting, same stock font. I must be missing something obvious. P769 w/20F rooted.
I believe that it's because LG UI is based off of Sense. If you use the font changer, some browsers font change on Google search. But that's about it.

I didn't know that the LG UI was Sense-based. Even so, I previously owned an HTC Glacier (myTouch 4G) which was definitely Sense-based and I was able to change fonts without a problem.
Do you have any other ideas?

Well then, idk why it doesn't work. As I said, the browser would change the text of Google Search results in *some* browsers, I think it worked on Opera. But the actual system itself? Nope, nothing. You're stuck with what LG gave you aha. It doesn't matter to me though. Roboto looks LEGIT.

Those are how I don't want to do it ahaha! Because the screen is somewhat laggy /;
EDIT: But I really do want to. My camera is like 4 years old, me being a teenager I don't use digital cameras xD My mother has one, so I can check if it does any better picking up the screen. Hers is newer, and maybe there won't be as much glare. I really would like to start and get a nice joint YouTube/G+ profile going.

Well, I do. I believe I can edit some light settings on Sony Vegas 12 (Which I TOTALLY got legally xD) to where the glare on the screen will be.. less dramatic. I'm also considering doing it in a brightly lighted room, so that the glare isn't as dramatic when compared to the dark. I believe it might just work. And I was getting on to ask, after this video, what other content would be useful?
I'm not interested in unlocking my bootloader, so I won't be making a tutorial aha.

[Q] MultiDPI Lollipop Apps for Note 4

Any update if we can get multi DPI apps for the Note 4?
Perhaps any guides as well would be helpful. I wouldn't mind doing the changes myself but my experiences have been quite unfruitful at making apps multiDPI unfortunately.
+1 for this I hate stock dpi

In the meanwhile, I used texdroider to set general DPI to 480, disabled regular camera and downloaded Google camera. The phone dialer looks a bit messy, but I can live with that. I absolutely hate the stock DPI so I can live with a broken dialer, lol.

I can't give up the stock Samsung camera man. Google Camera doesn't come close to even holding a candle against the IQ and things like live HDR on stock.

Do we have a list of applications that can benefit from having Multi DPI?
If we have the list of applications and their corresponding APK filenames, I can try working on them from the easier ones to the more complex ones.

Here's a list from http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...anging-note-4-dpi-settings-to-change-t2923408
These apps you will need to change back to stock: 640
camera
camera test
com.sec.android.gallery3d.panorama360view
com.sec.android.ofviewer
com.sec.android.sviewcover
com.sec.phone
contacts
gallery
incallui
com.android.mms
phone
photo studio
s health
samsung camera filter
touchwiz home
video trimmer
not changing some can cause it to not function properly or FC
Gallery and touchwiz home work fine on my note 4 with the DPI changed though.

Here Just Download and Flash this and using the Text Droid change the DPI to 480DPI Please make a Nand Backup so if you dont like you may return back to Stok, This Mods Works on Both Exynos and Snapdragon.

December Lollipop ROM Apps Including New "Logo Tools App"

I ve added the MTCMusic and MTCBluetooth apps from December L ROMs to the fileserver if anyones interested.
The music has a new layout, BT has a slightly different dialler.
Also included is the new "Logo Tools" app that lets you change the boot logo without going into factory settings.

Darn, where 1024 I think.. where really small..
Small? That would mean you have a 1024 system and the apps are 800 I think?
Can you post a screenshot please, even if it is small? Would like a quick look and if better; might entice me to reinstall a later ROM which Ive been planning but too lazy to do

Yup, you would think.. I have 800x480.. 1024 is smaller pixels. So it tries to fit.
I mistakenly thought I had a 1024 before and install the wrong rom.. It was expanded. Here was the opposite.
I will find the file and install it. It takes it an update, if it does not work, you can roll back
Yup, they are 1024. I used zip to open and look into the files..
I m sure at one point the apps fitted both resolutions.
