I am wondering what value everyone is using for their LCD Density?
I am using ROM Toolbox Lite to change it, currently on a value of 210 (on DMORE 3.3 ROM), which seems a good compromise.
EDIT: Please add which ROM you are using when you suggest your density
Hi, I'm on Slim ics v4.0 and as standard Dpi is set to 182 and I find it really clear and defined. Any lower and icons are not spaced out right on the home screen. (Trebuchet). Got rid of lightning launcher

Hey guys,
I was on 182 and I loved it.
Just upgraded to X-Bean and now I've lost the higher resolution.
Do you know the best way to get it back?
I had SlimICS before which had a settings menu with the option.
Thanks
I'm using 182 in Slim Bean. Kind of weird at first (started with 182 in SlimICS), but got used now and can't go back!

OP suggests ROM Toolbox allows you to change it, you should try that.

I'm using 200 dpi

Using 210 DPI, since I flashed Elite's rom.
I use now 200 dpi but also 182 looks good.
Tiramisu (based on SlimICS).
question: how to calculate the resolution for 200 dpi and 182 ... at 240 it is 800x480. (need to modify the IGO8 setting) thanx

I used the build.prop editor available in the play store to change the density to 182. You then need to reboot to apply the changes. You also need to get a multi dpi play store installed as you will get incompatibility errors otherwise.

I used this for the store and it seems to work perfectly ... just flash from cwm ... and follow the directions

Hi iam running stock rom rooted and been playing around with lcd density I know that the default is 240 but 160 looks better only problem is that lg launcher is all messed up.
Any recommendations on how to fix it ? Or use a better luncher ? Or is it not advaisablle to play with this at all?
Thanks

What does it look like? Take a screenshot please.
I had density 160 on my I7500 but some apps wont recognize the value and were displayed in wrong size (handycalc ie.)
Hi,
Me and a couple of friends building a ROM now.
We want everything in the ROM to be small and it will look like the resolution is high, like in the SlimRom.
How can we do it?
Thanks everybody!
Try to resize graphics from every system apk... Should work.
In res/drawable something like that

Right!:laugh:
The SGS3 comes with a standard LCD density of 340. Now will probably be fine when I'm 85, but right now I'd like to get it lower, like somewhere between 200 and 240 Is it possible to change the LCD density on the SGS3 i9305?
I've tried LCD Resolution and it did nothing. I don't want to try LCD Density Modder because the reviews relating to SGS3 are terrible, most users had to re-flash their roms due to bootloops.
Are there other XDA/Google Play apps anyone can recommend or can this perhaps be done by editing a specific system file?
"Texdroider_dpi" from Play Store works fine and it's free

Thanks - what DPI values have you tested/used? And what did you find most suitable for daily use?
I only use stock dpi but from memory rom toolbox has an option to change dpi and you can also edit your build.prop and change the ro.sf.lcd_density=320 to another value like 240.
From memory I think 240 or 260 was a commonly used dpi but also not all system apps and mods support the multi dpi, stock dialer was one of them can't remember any others.
Good thing to have a nandroid backup when playing with the dpi incase of bootloops

It's safe, I've been messing with it on SGS2 and now. Very easy to use, no boot loops for me at all.
Now I'm using stock 340 but tried 220 & 240 and all works fine. 220 is tiny tho
Stock dialer is NOT full screen, can be annoying....

Thanks - I found a LCD dialer mod for the Galaxy S3 a week or two back.. can't find it now. Will post the link when I do.. not sure if it'll work the i9305 version tho..
240 LCD Keyboard Mod
Texdroider DPI confirmed working at 240 on SGS3 LTE
Galaxy Note 2 Keyboard 240 Mod confirmed working on SGS3 LTE so keyboard displays at correct density and fits the screen properly. Check the [MOD]240 DPI apps for samsung roms 4.1.1 & 4.1.2 [Update 27/11/12] thread for info and the SamsungIME apk

Note2 camera mod working also at 240 DPI on SGS3 LTE.. so the only mod I can't get working yet is the dialer at 240.. currently the 240 mod FCs but there's an update coming this weekend so hopefully it will sort the dialer.. then it's all good, 240 DPI with no compromises
Hi can someone post a method to change DPI and still having phone fully functional (I am talking about market issues etc.).
Thank you
EDIT: There used to be great app LCD Density Modder Pro from market but it works only for ICS but no support for Jelly Bean ROMs

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, I'm on my phone and have no way to see rules or anything like that. Anyway, I would like to use miui on my Galaxy S3, however MIUI is 320 DPI by default (ridiculous) and changing the LCD density totally breaks the UI. In order to be able to enjoy using my phone I need to have at least 240 DPI. Are there any themes compatible with the decreased DPI?
