Hi guys,
How can I definitely change the DPI of my device?
The Mi A3 native DPI it's 260 or 360 I guess, but it makes the UI elements so big, and I hate it! So, I came to developer options and changed the DPI to 510 which looks so much better, with small letters, icons, status bar and nav bar. But everytime I reboot our just lock and unlock my phone the icons and all others UI elements return to their normal size, so I need to go again to the developer options and change it again.. Is there a way to fix it? Can I do something using ADB commands? Thx in advance!
Facing same issue....also looking for any adb command or something which do not require root
You can change the display size , and the font. Otherwise you can install nova launcher or lawnchairlauncher V2 where you can make many changes to the size. ( lawnchair launcher v2 is very close to stock launcher with many more customizations )

They're talking about the android 10 bug in which certain elements (power menu, lock screen, notification shade) will revert to their original dpi even after changing the screen size.
Update: I just found the problem, it's in the fingerprint unlock. I just changed the fingerprint lock for a pin and now I can reboot my phone and the DPI doesn't get changed anymore. Now I'm searching for a way to fix it, cause the screen fingerprint it was one of the reasons who make me buy that phone.
Same for me
I also facing the same issue.. for me i used to toggle between dark and white modes then everything will fine..
for rooted device, "wm density" command should work.

Im sporting a June 5th Com Rom 2.0 setup with ec01 modem, LauncherPro and some other various tweaks. Everything is working flawlessly, however Id like the ability to change the size ( if not also the placement and font) of the lockscreen clock on the rotary lock.
I cant find any information on tweaking the clock font other than changing the overall system font, but its the size of it that is of most concern. Is there a tool or can an option be added to TSM Parts - lockscreen setting to manipulate the font size ?
I also liked the simplicity of the VA Green style rotary lockscreen; is it possible to pluck that out of the theme without doing damage to the current setup? If i apply the whole theme, I revert and lose apps like TSM, etc.
Thanks in advance
PS - whats with the horizontal band on the lockscreen underneath the time ? anyway to remove ?
BTW, I tried WidgetLocker but due to corporate security requiring a PIN, I cant disable\override the standard lockscreen. ( which is ironic because corproate security policy hasnt locked phone correctly since Eclair)

i'm having troubles with the lock screen...the QQ Launcher Lockscreen works perfectly, but my default lockscreen runs together with it. Any way i could disable the default lockscreen and use only QQ's Lock?! Thanks!

Does Settings --> Cyanogenmod settings --> Tablet Tweaks --> Disable lockscreen work for you?

great launcher, i'm using it right now... gonna stay some time on my phone.
one thing about lockscreen... i disable lockscreen in cyanogenmod settings, and it's working ok. but... when i hit power button, the lockscreen stays on for 30 seconds (just like screen timeout time). the default one is on for 5 sec.
... and that's the only problem i have, if i can call it one.
screenshots???
no screenshot?
Auto Rotate Screen?
I just installed this launcher and have been enjoying it a lot so far. I have noticed though that when I slide my phone open the screen does not rotate to the landscape view. I went into Settings/Display and made sure that Auto-Rotate Sceen was checked, but that doesn't fix the problem. Can anyone help me out?
if you had some screen shots would be perfect. thx anyway!
I'm having the same prob with lack of auto-rotate, doesn't even go to landscape once the keyboard is slid out....is this a portrait-only launcher? HELP!
><
Its simular to MiUi Launcher. It works btw but at start you may get a FC. Its fast its got style. Oh and it has a lockscreen inside. Greatest launcher ever.
Its already v2.2 now.
like it but....
I like this launcher but regrettably I switched back to GO because of the FC problem (even did a hard reset and redo all apps installation and configuration still same problem... **sigh**)... hopefully they could fix the bug cause I really like the responsiveness and simplicity of it... btw, it has the most responsive lock screen I have used...
Hello Everyone,
Few months ago I purchase used DS5. I really like the phone. I have been reading lot's of thread and learned how to root the DS5. Finally I learned but I am still confuse about lot of things. I just now rooted to nom's PCM7 with JB patch and everything works just fine but I am missing status bar and also screen icons are very big for my likings. Also the clock, signal indicator and don't know what else is missing on the top right corner. I tried everything from Cyanogen mod setting to ADW setting but still can't get any of these things show up on my DS5. Could some one please show me how to set up DS5 where I can get clock, status bar and other things that are missing and smaller icons as well. Few post has mention about DPI but I don't know how to change DPI. I have learn some but not all of it so please someone help. I really like nom's PCM7 Rom but don't know how set up properly. Any inputs will appreciated.

Dear friend, you should read on 2nd post, there are instructions how to show up your statusbar.
-go to settings/cyanogenmod settings/ tablet tweaks/choose softbutton then untick or unchoose all option
-go to settings/themes and choose ice10 themes then reboot.
-always reboot after choose a theme
-the statusbar softbutton made the entirely statusbar not show up, thats why do not use it or hide it before change theme.
-to change dpi, go to rom toolbox lite/build.prop editor and search ro.sf.lcd_density=240; change it to 160, 180, 200, or whatever fit to you then reboot.

Change you DPI again, to a lower level (240dpi eq big icons 120dpi small). Also some launcher have settings for that (I use and recomend ADW ex others like GO Launcher).
As shown in screenshot, I've changed my DPI/smallest width in Developer options from 360 (default) to 400 (recommended by DPI calculator)
Everything is scaled down nicely including text, icons, and pretty much everything in the UI itself.
But what's bothering me is that the Google Now Launcher's grid won't change for some reason. It still has 4 columns and the spaces between them are so big. Shouldn't it change according to the DPI?
The Pixel Launcher I've downloaded also has the same problem. The dock adjusted fine, which is what I want because now I can put more apps within it. Now I want the same thing for the apps that are not on the dock. Why aren't they changing?
Notes:
Changing the DPI to a far larger number didn't work.
Restarting phone didn't do anything either.
Force stopping launcher didn't work too.

Is there a way to change the color of the notification ui?
I open the "stock android" app today and it changed the color of my notification ui from Grey to blue without messing around with it.
Is there a way to change the color back to the original in the settings somewhere (I've been searching for some hours now, changed theme and all, uninstalled and reinstalled nova and changed nothing) without installing an app for the notification ui?
I have nova launcher installed FYI.
@EmbleerFrith
I think you mean the quick settings background. It changes according to the background you set on your launcher in theory. If you open MiFavor launcher without making it default, then change the background on it, THEN hit the home button to get to the stock Android launcher, it should fix itself. I did that before, and it seems to work
Honestly I'd love to change the whole quick settings UI altogether, but I have no idea how to mod systemUI
I have noticed that it only changes if I change the theme of the phone and only then
Yes There is
Yes there is a way. You have to decompile SystemUI_ZTE.apk and do some smali code color changes. I have mine set to one color all the time.

I think it changes according to the wallpaper color set in default launcher.

can you make a guide or something? Maybe theme the B09's (or B35's) systemUI and share it somewhere? This would be a nice addition to @raystef66's ROMs, as an add-on
