You can edit the dpi directly from the build.prop file in /system folder. You'll need a file explorer with root-access and mount the /system folder as writable. But often you will find that the Play Store will detect the changed dpi and some apps will be reported as "not compatible" with your resolution.
Alternatively, you can use PA/PAC Roms that allow you to modify dpi for the UI and for each app individually. This is very safe and prevents Play Store from being affected.

Use "Textdroider DPI" from play store, Additionally use Xposed framework and Play Store Fixes to send normal DPI to playstore so apps don't get incompatible notice.

^ Forgot about the best method: Xposed.
Sorry. lol

I recommend you this app: Textdroider DPI.
It worked for me.

Play store
Textdroider DPI is awesome :laugh:

Thanks alot guys it worked

[Q]Anyway to spoof DPI

As the title says, I need if its possible to a way to spoof you phones DPI.
Mainly I need it for the market because I'm sick and tired of being told that my DPI is not supported when in fact the app works fine....
Thanks in advance.

Change it in your Build.prop inside the system folder. this is with me assuming the DPI is the same as lcd density inside the build.prop. I do know if you change it on my hone to something not stock you get told no on some apps in the market.
Changing that could work but it makes my phone unusable because the UI is huge.

i have a similar issue. i have an sgs2 and use lcddensity to increase from 240 to 160 but apps on market say they won't work. i either reboot back to normal dpi, install, then reboot via lcddensity to the desired dpi - or download the apk manually and sideload it.
would be nice to get around this and just lie to the market app what the res is
Bump?

Maybe a advanced dev knows but would it be possible to decompile the market app, look for the bit that tells it where to look for build.prop and change it to look for lets say market build.prop, compile it, resign it then install with a lets say galaxy nexus build.prop?
I can't test this as I don't have a PC at home

Most apps are built for HDPI devices and up, the Wildfire is a low end MDPI device and most apps won't be compatible. It may seem to run fine if you alveolar the apk but Android has to force the application to work on your device. As for the Galaxy Nexus, the new 720p screen in Android is fairly new, and Market doesn't know much about the new resolution and will show apps as unsupported. The dev just has to make a quick update. That, or sideload.

Changed DPI. Is there a market fix for it?

Like the title says. Changed from 320 to 280. Now I can't get access to all apps.

I can't say for sure on the note, but I had a similar problem with my NookColor after changing dpi. You may want to try one of the "standard" dpi's like 240. Apply and reboot. May have to clean the market (Google play store) cash too.

There are a few roms that have the multidpi fix especially if useful if you are running tablet mode.

I am having the same problem as well. Currently still looking for a fix to this problem as I am not able to have access to all my applications. I'm pretty sure, as of now, the only ROM that has the DPI-FIX implemented into it, is the hybrid_rc_IV. but i'm not running that rom...any help would be appreciated also!
yes this works for the note, install then goto fix marketplace and it will download the market and the framework and install, then reboot, u can even change the density also, this works for me. u need to move to ur sdcard and install using a file explorer and make sure under settings->Security and unknown sources is checked so u can install the apk.
download: LCD Density Modder Pro.apk
Yes
There is a way you can change it. Theres a couple of apps, but some of them do not work. And will cause you to re-flash your rom if your phone is rooted!

Remove device compatibility issue with play store

Alright well I was on gingersnap LG 2.0 rom and now I'm back on gingerdx. I'm having problems downloading certain apps like the pro version of this app even though I used the pro version on gingersnap...I actually had to use a blackmarket app to download minimalistic text and now I am having problems trying to download recast weather on gingerdx..If I had solutions I wouldn't be asking. Is there a patch I flash with cwm that will allow me to download apps and take away that annoying your device isn't compatiable with this version error message on Google play store...

DPI Settings and Google Play

I changed my DPI from 160 to 180 in my LXdroid 0.2 and now some stuff in Google Play says my device isn't supported.
I was wondering if there's a way to fix/tweak this into making everything show up? I know some apps won't work, like app's that aren't made for GingerBread.
I'm using DPI Changer from Google Play. Didn't try changing it in build.prop yet.
Hi there
I use an app called lucky patcher to patch Google play and I don't have any problem with what ever density setting I use hope it helps. He's the app bud

You can use titanium to move apps to system and v.v.......an app that has a solid reputation and comes from the playstore.
No offence OP, just making a relevant point
