thank you very much dear
but i can use 160dpi and the navigation bar appear
?????????????

As u can see from the screenshot, there's navigation bar at 160... If u meant notification bar, thats the only thing that does not appear
I'm gonna go back to aosp now.. Gonna try PAC nightly n see if it got any better since earlier builds from last week...
Will come back to stock Sony 4.4.2 if n when I find some way to get the notification bar fixed.. Coz that's an important part to miss out on..
GPE is kool with low DPI, plus it has xreality n sound enhancements from Sony too.. Walkman n other sony apps can be side loaded... I like the sony email app... Should be a way to get that ported too can be too.. Haven't tried it yet... What makes u stick to Sony ROM as such? Same reason as me? Why don't u also try one of the several aosp based custom Roms available for ZU (not even close to other phones but there r enough roms) ??? Every single one of them supports usage at 220 that u seem to like..
Anyway, if u do find a fix, please pm me. I don't mind coming back to Sony KitKat at any time... I never like to keep same ROM more than a few days.. I get bored quickly..
Glad to see I am not the only one to face this problem...

Also note that for someone to debug this issue would mean, for me at least, a good 1/2 hour to back up their current rom, install/restore a 4.4.2 Sony image. The try and figure out if the user was on a locked bootloader, how was it rooted RIC enableed/disabled what kernel they were on, what launcher they were using etc.
I suspect more advice would have been more forth coming had the OP been better populated with info.

hi
we must find a solution for this problem

Couldn't resist.
But really, mimoun my man, editing the DPI is something that's not really "supported," you know? Yes you are able to do it. Yes you can sometimes set different DPI values without breaking anything. But now it looks like you've just gone over the threshold.

To Spicemaster, as the stock system.ui and framework is heavily modded by Sony, they don't really go very well with extreme density changes. 320 with small icons works well for me with the rest using app settings for low density.

yes, i know its because of Sony's modded systemui... i'd posted hoping someone's figured a way to bypass whatever's preventing only the notification drawer from being access at lower densities than original... the thing is, every version of Sony ROM till date had some issues or another at lower DPI... 4.3 sony firmware prevented accessing phone app and phonebook as well, which were critical issues in comparison, and therefore, i never got to enjoy the official firmware... from the day i bought this phone back in sept last year soon as the LTE variant was out in the market, i'd used the official 4.2.2 firmware just for a day before i voided warranty and unlocked bootloader to load PA just to get to use the phone the way i want my phone to be, i wouldnt adjust my lifestyle to fit the phone's limits - no, it has always been the other way around for me... when 4.3 was out in dec, then too, just got to use it for a day, moved back to aosp because of these limits... for this time, with sony 4.4.2 - is the only occasion where sony rom works quite well at low dpi (except for no access to notification drawer)... everything else works perfectly thanks to kitkat's revamped framework.... i dont have to use customized roms when there's latest android variant available as stock rom... because my accessories like sbh52 n such just work like magic on stock firmware... and nowadays there's xposed modules for any customization u otherwise miss being on stock.. so if despite my hesitation to post here (coz i know what the village idiots here are like), i'd posted a thread hoping to find someone else who has a better understanding of the framwork than me, and could work together in finding out a solution to this problem (because this is the first time a stock rom is fully functional at lower DPIs - so it has never been as easy as this until now to get it to be a 100% customizable firmware at the same time being in the latest available from google as well)... thats why i'd posted my question and eventually been contacted by OP here and started replying here.
I thought surpassing limits is what development is about, and not just copy pasting things that are already answered by someone else, just to get thanks from newbies and increase in total posts.
@mimoun103
you can use any custom rom available in either of these sections:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/orig-development
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z-ultra/development
Having tried every build (alphas, pre-betas, nightlies) of every rom (released to public) like FXP, PA, PAC, Krabappel's PureAOSP kitkat, Whats now called Omni-Kang, GPE port from doomlord, Unofficial and official CM builds, AOKP, Carbon, Slim from 4.3 to 4.4, i can guarantee that you can use your phone at all LCD densities ranging from 160 to 320 on all these AOSP based builds.
i can guarantee because i've used 160lcd density on several nightlies of all these ROMs. I flash different buiilds every now and then, i get bored when i reach limits of each rom.
good luck getting help around here.
I'm done.
