Not doing, but screen resolution.
When I change the resolution to 600x1024 I lose the option to set a custom ringtones for a specific contact. Changing back to default and I get the option back. Dpi changes doesn't affect the options.
Is this a known thing? Any other way to allow me custom ringtones per contacts?
Thanks
If you have played with dpi on any of the LG phones, you already know a couple things about the limitations
Basically, LG apps can open with as low as 530 dpi with the exception of the Camera (FC when zooming in fully) and the second screen. Many people opt to install texdroider to lower overall dpi while keeping the essential LG apps at the minimum of 530 with AppSettings in order to avoid multiple force closes.
The question is now on the second screen - the second screen is a bit tricky because the "com.lge.miniclock.font.default" will force close on anything lower than 640. The result, when you keep this at 640 while changing everything else to a lower dpi, is a bigger clock font on the second screen when the main screen is off - bigger relative to the weather,date, AM/PM indicator, and the battery icon. (MON 25 8:44 AM)
I currently have my phone at 530 dpi without any issues - but the weird thing is that the font size appears normal at the immediate moment when I lock the phone, then after a few seconds, it becomes bigger again. I'd post a screenshot if I could figure out a way to do so.
Anyone have a fix for this, by chance?
I just deleted the app in titanium backup AND removed the icon from the second screen options

Did you mean deleting "com.lge.miniclock.font.default" or just deleting the second screen app and not using it at all?
I uninstalled the miniclock app. Then removed the clock icon from the second screen "options" and replaced the clock icon with any other app so the secondary screen is not looking for that app in particular. I run the system at 480 dpi. All LG apps were set to 640
You may be able to just freeze miniclock to do the same thing.

I apologize but I'm not quite sure if I follow - how do I access the "options" for date&time when the main screen is off? What app are you using to replace that 8:44 text?
The mini clock is only for the second screen. The lockscreen clock works fine . I run my dpi at 480 by the way

I think we're talking about two separate things. I'm only talking about the second screen when main screen is off.
You had mentioned that you uninstalled "com.lge.miniclock.font.default", at which point you "removed the clock icon from the second screen options and replaced the clock icon with any other app so the secondary screen is not looking for that app in particular."
I suppose my first question is... what clock icon? When main screen is off, my second screen shows "MON 25 8:44 AM" and the only existing icon is the weather icon to the left. The clock (8:44 in this case) is simply a text - of which my problem is that it's relatively a bigger font size than the rest of the text.
Secondly, how are you able to access the second screen "options" for when the main screen is off? The only option accessible seems to be for the signature, and not the Date&Time. http://www.androidcentral.com/sites/androidcentral.com/files/styles/larger/public/article_images/2015/11/V10_second-screen-settings-MAIN.png?itok=pj9kNJfy
Oddly enough, freezing "com.lge.miniclock.font.default" doesn't seem to actually do anything. Even after restarting, the phone still displays the same on the second screen when main screen is off.
This is all I did.
1. Remove/delete/uninstall the mini clock app using titanium.
2. Go to second screen settings for shortcuts. The analog clock was removed from the shortcut options.
3. I added camera and my browser as shortcut options.
4. I Turn second screen off when the screen is off. I only have the second screen active when the screen is on
Reboot.
Then apply dpi in app settings to system and Android UI to 480. All LG apps set to 640. Adjust other apps to preference.
Reboot.
FWIW LG apps can go down to 527dpi which I believe is small enough to have it universally set for all apps. I have my phone set at 527dpi, and minifont deleted. The only app I have changed with App Settings is the camera which needs to be on 640dpi
Can I still set the overall dpi to 540, and all LG app to 640 without the need of deleting the mini clock but switch off the second screen when the main screen is off?
Yep... Backed up mini clock then uninstalled it. Reboot... Used Texdroider_dpi and changed dpi to 540... Reboot... Works with no FC issues. Second screen works also. Lg apps work fine with Dpi set at 540. Looks great with more screen real estate. ???? thanks to all developers working so hard! U guys rock...
Any way for dpi change for h960a?
Hey,
I've got a Huawei Mediapad M5 10.8 Inch. The standard scale settings are to big for me. It looks like it was made for People with low eyesight. Luckily you can set the size in the settings menu.
But in Desktop Mode the size is still to big. And when in Desktop Mode, the Settings for the scale are deactivated. You can also check the scale in the developers options by setting the smallest width. By default it is set 606, but I would like to set it to 800 or something like that. But when I change the settings from 606 to 800, the settings won't apply and change back to 606.
Is there any possibility to change the scale in Desktop Mode? Because with this big scale, for example Chrome doesn't show any tabs.
Thanks a lot and greetings,
Jannik
Same here, im trying to do the same, Huawei should put more settings for desktop mode
Nobody able to help? Or is there no possibility to solve this Problem?
I want to change the DPI on the screen.
would the Developer Options -> Minimum Width do it?
seems to work...I have mine set to 1000...
Hey there,
I tried to turn my display color range to monochromatic in devveloper options and with app "Monochromatic". But everytime i turn display off, color range is back to all colors but monochromatic setting is checked.
Any idea how to fix that?
Thanks
edit: I have Huawei Y6 Prime 2018 (ATU-L31) with Android 8 (EMUI ATU-L31 8.0.0.151 (C432))
It's a Two-Switch Job

In developer options, the option you select (Simulate Color Space or SCS) overrides the choice in the Accessibility Menu option. I use this option a lot, especially at night. It's a two-step process.
Go to Accessibility, scroll down to Color Filter, and toggle it. You won't be able to see options, and a note that says "Overriden by Simulate Color Space" should show. It should stay mono even after wake.
Color Space only affects your perception of the phone. It does not alter the phone's perception of its surroundings. If you take a photo using SCS, it will still be a color photo when you take it.
