DPI Change Flashable ZIPS - Samsung Galaxy Star

DPI is density per pixels
so by editing it u can change the layout, text etc.
by lowering the value u can put more content in same scrn
scrnshots will help u understand if u dont get it
If u have used the aclex rom
u may hv noticed the resolution change
since some users requested it here it iis
Instruction:- Flash thru CWM
Dpi- 110 - will make things look normal smaller on screen
Dpi- 120 - the default configuration (Stock) - (can also be called recovery.zip)
If u want any other dpis request it here and ill upload it as quickly as i can

NOTICE:
The build prop used here is from my rom - T3ROM
and since i hv used a different ringtone in my rom
u will have silent ringtone after flashing this :crying:
pls change the ringtone after flashing
also the rom version will be shown as 4.1.2 as in the stock (If u have rom name it will be gone)
any1 using this will also have some tweaks tht improve responsiveness and performance :highfive:
also if u can upload stock build.prop file from stock rom
it is present in /system/
Scrnshot will be posted in a minute

Working!!
It works in my SGS thanks.

uhmm.. actually o.o
DPI is dots per inch.. used in some printers to define print quality.. techinally for screens you'd say ppi or pixels per inch.. but eh.. everyone calls it dpi so let's just say dpi..
dpi is constant for mobile devices screen... there maybe some mobile devices which allow changing dpi but i don't know about that..
dpi is the number of physical pixels on a unit inch of a screen.. calculated by the below formula..
dpi=sqrt((x^2)+(y^2))/d (x an y are no. of pixels and d is the size of screen diagonally in inch )
no. of horizontal pixels(x) of star = 240
no. of vertical pixels of star = 320
stars screen size diagonally (d) = 3.0 inches
dpi=sqrt((x^2)+(y^2))/d
dpi=sqrt((240^2)+(320^2))/3
dpi = 133.333
dpi of star is approximately 133.. and that won't change unless you change the ro.board.lcd.. just joking.. :cyclops:
for dpi.. the higher the better.. higher dpi means more pixels per inch.. which gives more sharper and clearer picture..
how awfully awesome it would be it we could change dpi to 734 for our star.. that's full HD on a 3 inch display lol
what we indirectly, change with ro.sf.lcd_density is the scaling factor, by which the ui is scaled .. ( read on about android's density independent pixels and scaling )
this may give a impression like the resolution is changed.. but unlike in monitors where actual physical resolution is changed.. this is just a hack to scale the ui

yes of course we cant change the dpi of the screen we cant change hardware...
everyone calls it dpi i call it dpi
emulation is enough
i made it for some users that didnt wanna edit build.prop
yes 768 dpi u were talking about
the density which we can change shud be 240 which is the one used in some tabs and the most higher res devicrs like s3
it was pathetic

you said "DPI is density per pixels" in OP and that's wrong... that's all it was about..
by changing the ro.sf.lcd_density to 240 everthing will be bigger.. cause it changes the scaling to 2x.. which will make everything (the ui) look twice as big..

i dunno i really knew it was dots per inch as i told some users that asked me
i dunno why i wrote density
maybe because it was density
well changing density in some apps helps a lot

Well this was mainly for u since u requested it
use exdialer it is quite fast and doesnt give problem
also u can use app settings to set dpi per app
