Hello,
Does anyone knows if it exist a multi DPI dialer for ICS?
Thank you.
No one?
none as of now for sammy roms...
Do you know such a ROM who has a multi DPI dialer?
Thank you.
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a modded market that can handle some not standard DPI (like 280). In the current state, every app I want to download are marked "not compatible".
Did someone, get a workaround ? I have already try LCD density modder PRO but it cause a lot of FC with JB roms.
Got my Answer for evryone who need a fix try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839871
It worked for me
I am coming from an S2 where I set LCD to 160 to simulate 720p display. GORGEOUS just what I wanted.
I figured going to S3 it would "BE" 720p all set. no. they blew everything up larger so it looks like the S2 stock. IE everything too big.
I was reading that lowest safe value is 240 so I set that. lcd density did not work so I modded the build prop in rom toobox
phone reboots screen LOOKS AMAZING for about 10 second then it freezes on me and is unresponsive. eventually it reboots.
in the process of using adb to reset builb prop back to 320
suggestions? I am on the leaked JB rom using Nova launcher. How do I get a lower LCD density to work ?
ok I ended up just reflashing the rom took 2 tries but that did it reset it. I tried 260 and it almost froze up again but then I got a samsung keyboard crashed.
AHA that must be what was freezing it so while it was responsive I jumped in and changed to swype. problem solved. tried 240 again works GREAT !! and wow soo soo much nicer now at 240
only problem is for some reason the swype keyboard LACKS a MIC icon to enable speech typing. anyone have any idea's how to fix that? the swype keyboard on my l2 has the mic icon ??
Just edit the build.prop file and change the value to 240,it works perfectly fine. And by the way I always use 240 dpi
《swagged from aokp》
i first have to gain access to the build prop file which i could not do done thevSamsung keyboard kept crashing the device
reinstalle rom tried 260 itworked keyboard still failed but did not kill the system so i changed it then i was able to set 240
itmight be because i am using jelly bean leak. Swype in jb sucks does not auto space and no microphone icon to invoke speech recognition
boy the s3 is so much nicer at 240
Can I change the DPI for sammy based ROMs? or is it only for AOSP ROMs?

You can change DPI for any ROM.
..out of curiosity, the S3 has a 720p display no? Is 240 a more true resolution for 720p on this phone? .. a little confused
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
not sure about "true" resolution. but 240 is what I "expected" going from 800x480 to 1280x720
instead what they did was to "enlarge" all the objects in scale so relative to physical phone dimensions the screen objects remains the same size IE consumed more pixels.
my problem now is that the samsung keyboard is not compatible with resolution 240 (SO MAKE SURE you change keyboards before you change screen density)
but the swype keyboard that is baked in is HORRIBLE. it does not auto space and has no MIC button for speech.
not sure what AOSP roms means (certain dev group??) I am using the "stock" leaked JB rom. you can NOT USE Touchwiz !! you must use an alternative launcher from what I am reading. I do anyway (nova) ie be warned.

Hmm. May try it. On my previous phones. S1 and S2 the default DPI was 240 and I always lowered it to 180. But since having the S3 and phone size I've just let it be. Can't stand TW launcher so that's been replaced with HOLO and I use the stock JB keyboard. So hopefully I won't run into any issues if I decide to change it up
Oh and AOSP- stands for Android Open Source Project. Its pure vanilla android. No skins, tweaks, ... its pure android from source. CM is built off of AOSP..
AOKP- Android Open Kang Project. Built from AOSP with a lot more bells and whistles.

what S2 did you use. the difference is important since sprint got the larger 4.5" screen (ie almost same size as S3)
I set my S2 to 160. I set te S3 to 240 because it was suggested that any lower would cause issue since that moves into "tablet" resolutions.
I am VERY satisfied at 240 on the S3. it feels "right" now and not "tonka toy larger"
Paranoid Android for the win.
You set DPI's per-app and it's built on the CM10 base.
WOH I need that !!! (set dpi per app) I just discovered the CAMERA app does not scale. so its using half the screen now hehe but at least it works
is there a paranoid android rom for the S3? is it JB based? and if available for the S3 any functionality issues ?

I'm actually currently running PA 2.18.1 and a stock sammy too for some testing, using Siyah's dual boot kernel.
I changed the dpi to 240 but barely didn't notice any difference?
what I did:
-edit the system/build.prop (thru root browser)
-change this "ro.sf.lcd_density = 320"
-to this "ro.sf.lcd_density = 240"
my default setting even before editing the build.prop
-Nova launcher
-7x7 desktop grid
rom at sig
huh the difference was INSTANT and HUGE for me as soon as it finshed booting. everything got smaller and more detailed.
I am also using the max grid size (7x6 I think in nova) huge improvement.
yeah 240 deforms the stock dialer too. pitty I LOVE the stock dialer. its actually the first stock dialer where I don't want to change anything at all. gorgeous.

[MOD] 240 DPI stock Dialer for all jellybean roms[Universal Flasher]
Nice exactly what I need alas it does not appear to work gonna try flashing again and post in that thread. thank you for the link!
Mod does work, try clearing Dalvik cache.
By the way, do stock Clock app FC for you too?
I can not get it to work. neither the 240 or the restore worked for me.
the nandroid backup worked to get me "back" so Iwill try again and clear dalvik and see what happens.
yes clock crashes for me too. Grrr got to find a replacement for that too now.
have you found a swype keyboard that has the MIC icon so I can do speech? my s2 has it but the S3 does not
I tried it again. mod DOES NOT WORK on my phone. once again contacts has stopped and it crashes.
contacts itself works fine as long as I don't touch the "dialer" phone tab.
I cleared cache and delvik fixed permissions still no joy. does not work and neither does restore.
is this for ICS or JB ? that might be why it does not work.
This mod should work on all firmwares. I tested it on Omega 27.2, which is based on latest - DLIB - firmware. Not sure if mod will work on odexed rom, you should ask the author about it.
hello there! i have a s3 mini with cm11(novafusion )
and today i wanted to change all app's dpi to 200. well samsung think we have Hyperopia. everything is big. then i face a problem. swiftkey doesnt scale right(see in attachment)

im using app settings to change dpi.
I changed my DPI from 240 to 200 on my 4.4.4 ROM , but most icons got fuzzy or blurred. And this is happening in every launcher I am trying. Someone knows a fix ?
I have the same issue, did you find a way to fix this?
