SOLUTION for lower DPI problems - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, Im on Temasek rom currently, and recently discovered Xposed framework. and the App Settings Module.
I have set my DPI (from build.prop) to 256 currently, but I am having a problem when selecting stuff. (see screenshots). I also uploaded one screenshot showing how it was on the stock 320 DPI behaviour.
How can i solve this problem via the xposed framework and module since it can change specific apps to a certain DPI. Or maybe what is the apk responsible for this bar showing ? Thanks for your time.
UPDATE: Read Post#2 and Post#4 for the solutions. :good:

SOLVED, thanks to Tokarin's help and support !!
This is a Vrtheme that will resize the bar's png in the framework-res, just flash via cwm.
Here are screenshots after the .zip is applied

Thanks! Was searching for something like this.
Also any solution for the caller slider not being centered?

Yes, i managed to solve this common problem, but in a small workaround. I used the xposed framework, and the module mentioned in the OP.
After you successfully install the Xposed Framework and then install the App settings mod (btw its downloaded as a zip file but to install change it to .apk and install). Read the instructions posted in the forums linked so you can make it work.
Dont forget to reboot after installing these, and finally enter the App settings, change the Phone (com.android.phone) DPI to 320, and reboot your phone. Note that this does not change the dpi of the dialer or contacts, but only the dpi of the calling screen, so you will barely notice the 320dpi
I attached screen shots of how it was and how it becomes. :good:

[MOD] Remove Ongoing IME Switcher + More

This is a flashable .zip that will remove the "Select Input Method" notification, regardless of how many keyboards are installed/enabled. The mod is added in to rwc95's modification that removes the ongoing WiFi and SmartStay Eye notifications.
Basically, it's all rwc95's work, plus the addition of removing the Input Method notification.
I have only tested this on the stock odex ROM.

If you have already done the wifi and smart stay, can you run this as well or do you have to do anything first?

Flash it overtop!! It rerwrites your framework-res, so basically, any changes you made will be replaced by this mod.
or just download the xposed framework then install modaco toolkit and tweakbox apk. they both have settings for this kind of thing

Options are always good. This gives people, whom don't want to go the xposed route, another way to do it.

changing density without build.prop editing way will cause you bootlop. edit it only in build.prop. its simple, find 2 line ro.sf.lcd_density and change the density with you want, and reboot. if you facing any weird app density (i find seclauncher.apk and gallery.apk is weird when i change density to 220), install app settings xposed module, and change the app (seclauncher and gallery) density to 240, reboot and it will be normal again.
use texdroider_dpi to change density ... and go in xposed framework and go in download and find the module Enable call recording download it install it activate it reebot it .. and you cannot hide sim indicators using and third party module..

Did that mate, but as soon as I click on record button I am not able to listen to what the guy at the other end is saying.
May be it doesn't work on Mega 5.8.
Will look around for texdroider_dpi.

Hi,
Try this:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (removing the Exported folder within it if you saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.
Also make sure that your device is running on stock DPI/resolution/display settings.

If you're running a custom ROM, chances are that you might have edited certain settings. These include hiding the soft keys, editing the DPI settings or even settings your own system-wide icon pack. Keeping your phone as standard as possible means that Themer will work to its full potential.

Themer for G2 mini

I belive some users tried to run themer on g2 mini, but it couldn't work because of resolustion support. We have 960x540 (which is supported by themer), but since we have soft-keys themer detects 886x540... They recently added support for 888x540 and I've managed to get 888x540. I have stock 4.4.2 rom.
1. You need rooted device.
2. Install Xposed Framework and GravityBox [KK] module.
3. In Xposed, enable GravityBox and reboot.
4. Go to GravityBox -> Navigation Bar Tweaks, turn Master switch on, scroll to the bottom of the screen and change navigation bar settings (for both portrait and landscape orientation) to 98%.
5. Reboot.
This method reduce nav bar height by 2px and themer detects 888x540 resolution. You should be able to see themes in themer now.
i work arround that i install auto hide navigation bar and works fine but i going to try that maybe can be set in build prop to dont install nothing more
Well, I tried to auto hide nav. bar, but auto hide is not usable for more reasons, at least on my phone. When nav is hidden, themer works fine, but some stock apps crash on start up. Such as phone, contacts, gallery etc. When I unhide it, it cange screen height at 886 so, themer crashes.
Hi mate ! Need a help .. I have just rooted my lg g2 mini lolipop but there is this problem xposed says installing framework might brick my phone because, processor or something doesn't match. Therefore, what should I do now ? Should do a titanium backup before installing ? I haven't done any backup before rooting.
Thanks in advance
This method works on 4.4.2 stock KK rom. Probably it will work on stock 5.0.2.
You're getting this warning, because you're trying to install Xposed for KitKat rom, which won't work with Lollipop. There are threads on this forum about getting Xposed to work on 5.x roms, so, try that. If you get it working, you can customize nav bar and run themer.

[MOD] Aroma Magisk Module Maker 8.1 June Update

Flash in TWRP.
This Aroma has all the mods from my normal Aroma but there is one last step. Like the other, you must flash the base at the bottom of the Aroma first. Then flash any other mods you may like in any order. When done, flash the very first option which is the Magisk Module Maker. It will make a zip in a folder on your sdcard called magisk.zip. After you back out of the Aroma, go to that folder and flash that zip and reboot. I did notice that QS background doesn't play nicely with live wallpapers though that might be semi-transparent only.
I don't know a much about Magisk but this evil themer-Magisk combo was made by djb77 at this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/app...theme-t3590766
I've tweaked it to get it to work with Pixels.
Install 3Minit Resources apk before installing 3Minit Mod
Clock mods
Internet speed indicators
3Minit Mod
Enabled stock WiFi-Data in-out arrows
One percent batteries
Battery percent on AOD
Navbar height adjustment 30-48 dip

Colored Navbar Icons
Colored Notification Backgrounds
Colored Notification Text
Colored QS backgrounds

Invisible power menu button in far right hand corner of statusbar. Tap closes the screen, long press brings up the power button menu.
Remove carrier text
Remove NavBar completely with 3,4,5,6,7 column QS options.
Invisible home button on far left of status bar option for LMT or other mods that might not start as intended.

Lol, sure.
I flashed the base first, then flashed the "speed left", "black BG" and "black notification text".
Lastly I flashed the very first tweak(Module Maker) and then looked for the Magisk Zip folder
and flashed the zip, wiped Delvik-cache and rebooted to system! And you know the rest!

Thanks for the specifics. Was that black BG, for QS? I've never wiped dalvik before since that is done in the zip but I wouldn't think that would cause a problem but with a Magisk module, I'm not sure.
at the risk of sounding like a complete noob lol, could you explain what the difference between this mod and your other one? what is the purpose/difference between the way the old mod does things and/or having this mod as a Magisk module? Thanks in advance...

Nop, it was for "Notification". And another weird thing I just noticed is
that it's made my "Navbar Buttons" like "Dots", almost invisible and I didn't
even flash anything related to the Navbar from your tweaks!

This has some old files in it some how. I'm redoing it. I'll let you know when it is done so you can try it again if you want to. If you are no longer interested, I understand. I got in too big of a hurry. It works great on my Pixel 2 and my Nexus 5X.
On 8.1 any changing of the Navbar height will cause the icon size problem if padding is not adjusted. My base is 36 dip, stock is 48. I've had this working great so when digging I found those old files.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer my question... so when the mod is systemless that means that it does not actually change the system files? and it's more of a overlay due to it being a module? Thanks again for ELI5...

I don't know the specifics but I believe Magisk works off a mirror of your system files and those are the files being changed. You can open Magisk Manager and turn this module on and off.

Thanks for the info, it's much appreciated.. I'll have to look into what systemless really means... I have always enabled that option in Magisk while not knowing exactly what it does lol... maybe that would explain a few of the odd things that I have noticed while flashing items in TWRP...

Tried it to no avail !
Flashed exactly like last time with same tweaks, booted
to Android successfully but the only tweak that worked is
"White text notification" and that makes a problem now bcuz
I chose "Black notification BG" which did not work and now is
white on white hence unreadable. I think I have to dirty flash the
system so I get back everything stock again.
Thank you so much for your time and efforts.
P.S= The "Nav" didn't get fixed either!
