Hybrid RC IV- How to change Play Store DPI

I'm running in tablet mode and have, over time, gotten the dpi "right" for all of my apps except the Play Store, which still appears to be at a phone resolution (I'm guessing 360 dpi) .
I know the relationship between build.prop and hyb.prop.
I have tried:
Used default dpi of 213 without adding lines for Play Store.
I have added lines for Phonesky and com.android.vending-1 at 230 dpi
I'm pretty sure my Play Store has been updated (so no longer using orig vending.apk.
Wonder if:
I need to manipulate more than Phonesky and android vending?
Or
Need rom's original vending to change dpi?
It's kind of jarring to flip from low dpi (most of my apps besides phone and contacts) to my current market dpi.
Any help appreciated. Thanks
Love this rom!

[Q] Play Store defaults to Tablet UI.

I came from a Galaxy Mega 6.3 and the playstore worked as would expected, in phone UI mode.
With the Z Ultra the icons are huge and there are only 4 huge app icons on the screen at a time. I'm guessing the extra resolution puts it in tablet mode. Without messing with the DPI is there any way to get the play store to go to the phone UI?
I'm happy with the DPI on the rest of the phone, just not the play store and it's not really worth it to me to install PA just to be able to change the DPI for one app...
I saw this post and tried it and it worked great! Play Store at 180 DPI now look excellent! (I used the App Settings module)

yes, rooting without unlocking your bootlocker allows xposed framework to be installed, and the play store module should work to get you any app you like regardless of the dpi settings it reads
It's taken a little longer for the over-sized Play Store icons to REALLY bug me... glad I found your post.
180DPI is just a little too small for me, 240DPI (gives 3 columns) and font scaling to 120% is just about right for my eyes.
Thanks.
The only thing that's annoying when we change the Play Store DPI is when we get app updates, and it's not possible to read the changelog in portrait.

[Q] Wallpaper without crop

Check out an app in the play store called: Image 2 Wallpaper, that should be what your looking for.

that's the application i tried before i started this thread, thanks for the suggestion though.
Try Wallpaper Setter in play store. That always worked for me on GS3, have it installed on Z2 but not added any custom wallpapers yet.

Play store problems with changed dpi in build.prop

Sorry if this has been asked but I have looked and came up blank
I've changed the LCD dpi figure in my build.prop as my LG G2 looks a lot better at 380 than the stock 480.
However this seems to confuse the play store and some apps don't show up for me. I change the dpi back, reboot and hey presto I can see the app.
is there a way round this?
Any ideas ?

Change UI and Apps DPI?

Hey everyone I am tired of the giant phone feeling of the Fire HD 6 and was wondering if there is an App or Xposed module anyone is using to change their DPI on their tablet. I tried Textdroid DPI from the play store but it didn't work. Thanks!!
