Anyone find a way to change the dpi of Google's new 4.4 kit kat launcher?
I tried changing the dpi of the launcher's app with no success. Also trying to change the dpi of the app drawer.
I was able to change novas dpi easily but this new launcher isn't quite as easy to change.

I'm interested in this as well now that I have a stable 4.4 running on my N4 but I suppose we should be patient. I know the crew at PA are working feverishly...
Pretty easy actually. First download app settings for xposed, then scroll down to google search and click dpi, then change to what you want

That's actually how I changed the dpi on Nova. Unfortunately, This method does NOT work with this launcher. Any other ideas?

These are my settings, but No matter what I change the dpi to, it doesn't change.

This works! !! Thank you, that was driving me crazy. I first tried changing the launcher settings and as everyone knows that doesn't work, then I tried changing the screen density in the build prop and that screws everything up. This worked!

Do as drakeymcmb said and change the setting for Google search, not the launcher. :thumbup:

When did this come out for our device?
400 dpi worked pretty good except the app drawer button was off center to the left.

You can change the dpi with Rom Toolbox Pro also.

Got mine set at 300
The problem is..my Trebuchet launcher is perfect. But the icons on the N5 launcher are big and hideous. Even the App Drawer looks ugly compared to Trebuchet. Any help with this..? Thanks!

How stable is the launcher for you? I was getting FC on Hangouts and Search everytime I tried to use it. is MMS working in the Hangouts App?
If yes, any thread you can link us to that shows the stable version and install instructions for this?

For the google search fc you just need the place this lib in, system/lib. Dont change permissions. Of course extract first.

What other DPIs are you using ... 400 seems way too small , I'm at 350 now.
Hour are people saying 400 DPI? My 150 looks massive...I dare not keep it 400...

The only way you can upgrade to the kit kat on a att is to be rooted. They have not rolled out the unrooted way.:crying: The knox notification is driving me nuts.

what DPI are most people using? I'm at 350, seems ok , maybe a little small.
I have App Settings and have changed everything i can find that relates to the phone apk dpi back to 480, but no matter what the keybad wont change back..
Is there a fix?

I could be wrong, but I believe you have to change it back to 480 for contacts and phone for it to look right.

I think you need to disable secure storage, by using wanam or some other app or xposed module.

This is getting redundant, Samsung and other OEM'S should give us this control especially considering how much we pay for these things

I was curious of people were changing their DPI settings on their note 4. If so what setting looks the best for you?

To anyone who has a note 5. Did they bring back finger air view? I know it was gone on the note 4.

DANG!! Have you tried it through nova launcher by any chance? You could on the note 4 but made the screen funky and went away when the phone locked.
