[Q] changing dpi

Is there some way i can fake my dpi for the purposes of the market. My phone's default is 240, but I like my dpi set to 190 as that complements my screen size really well ... however, when market looks at that, it assumes I have a tablet and removes most apps etc ... is there a way I can fake my dpi to 240 (it doesn't need to change it to 240, just make the market think it is 240) without having to manually change it to 240 and restarting the phone?
dunno if this will work for u

[Q] i want to change my lcd density to 200 (ish) but want to resize the dialer too

hi guys..
i have seen a few posts on the SGS side of things about resizing the dialer / camera etc... correctly when the LCD denisty is changed to a lower than standard figure..
is there a way of these apps "ignoring" the LCD density values set in the build.prop files?
just thinking.....

Paranoid Android & Navigon

Can any dev explain the phenomena that I experience with Navigon when altering the Interface DPI with Paranoid Android? Not that they have to, I'm just curious.
If I set the DPI lower than 320, Navigon blows the interface up to freakish levels. Setting Navigon's per-app DPI back to 320 only makes it worse.
To get Navigon to display properly (and like stock 320 DPI), I have to set it to 160 DPI. With the XPosed framework, I can set the DPI back to 320 to remove the graphical glitch and set the app to view as it was before I changed the UI's DPI.
If I want the interface shrunk to match the rest of my UI, which I have at 190 DPI, I have to manually edit to properties.conf file to set the DPI to 100.
If no one can answer, hopefully this will help others who might have experienced this with other apps.

changing dpi - has already somebody done this?

Now that we have root and kernel adiutor, we might be able to change the dpi to the screen dpi with it.
Has already someone changed this?
According to the dpi calculator:
https://www.sven.de/dpi/
We should have ~197 dpi, but there is 280 in the build.prop
Actually how many dpi does our watch have?
I set the calculator above to 2.3 so the result reads 1,63x1,63 display.
But other calculators are different...
Change it for whole android is not perfect. Try instead the Xposed module app settings to change dpi for specific apps.

Screen density (DPI) change

Hello,
I would like to change my DPI which is at 320 right now.
I'm about to do it by changing the value in build.prop.
My question is, what are safe ranges where i can stay in between, does anyone know?
Or is anyone using a custom DPI and can you then tell me what DPI you are on?
Thanks
