[MOD][S6][DPI][CAMERA] Fix for Samsung Camera app on other device DPI - Galaxy S6 Themes and Apps

Hi,
I have created a mod for the camera app on the Galaxy S6 Edge such that it works properly under device dpi of 540 or 480. I would really appreciate it if someone owning a Galaxy S6 would be willing and able to test my mod for the camera app on a Galaxy S6 (I only own the Edge).
If you decide to help out, even though I can't imagine anything going wrong if you know what you're doing, please know that you're doing it at your own risk and make sure you have a nandroid backup just in case.
You can find my mod at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/themes-apps/mod-samsung-camera-app-dpi-t3131567
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Bane.

Hi... I have an S6 (G-920I) working at 520 dpi, your 540 dpi mod (the amk19 one) worked on my phone. It's still have a black area in the side and bottom (because of the different dpi) but is enough for me to be happy with the camera now. Thanks!!!
I tried before to mod the app for my resolution but the video does not work in my mod.

You're welcome! Thanks for testing it out. I can cook up a 520 dpi version for you tomorrow.

I found that using Terminal is easier than using an app. Just run the following command (where you replace "###" with your desired DPI):
adb shell wm density ### && adb reboot

What an amazing job thanks!

Another apps.
Launcher. Dialler. Need to optimization?

Great job for the 520 dpi!!

Somehow the supplied files didn't work on my GalaxyS6, I recreated it myself using apktool and the framewrok-res,.apk and Samsungcamera4.apk from the XtreStoLite rom (1.4b) for 480dpi and that DOES seem to work. File is attached... Might do some other ones as well later on (also for the 1.5 version of that rom).
All credits to op for the dimens.xml file which I used!

@up: this works fine with S6, big thx.
Files from 1st post didn't work for me (FC camera app after reboot)
EDIT:
Too fast
Slow motion doesn't work, some options too.

Ok, not sure but I think I've fixed it (and might actually have made it multi-dp ). If you guys could please try? Slowmo, fastmo, pro mode and all seems to be working for me!

Awesome! Also did the keyboard, jsut in case (see attachment). Can't get dialer/contacts to work though (apk corrupted after compiling, must look into that more).

Great job, you should compile a collection of these multi-dpi mods.
Best of luck with the dialer, I miss being able to change my dpi.

can u change this Camera 480 dpi camera s6 to 420 dpi?

Question about rom: Dell Streak 2.2!!! THIS IS NOT MINE

Heyy Guys, I stumbled upon this rom, and someone claims that it works for Milestone, if you read further on.
Please confirm - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831144
Confirmed working on desire hd .25 rom. Very nice rom.
Download file, and simply install the dell launcher first, then install other widgets.
Yes, it works well. It actually works without changing the LCD Density setting as well, so you won't have to squint like mad.
That said, there's no advantage to using Dell's work here other than using their heavyweight widgets.
PS. This is not a rom, but a set of APKs.

Kay, thanks I'll post a screenshot soon but the essential problem is that it looks too small I guess. Basically, the bottom app drawer and the navigation buttons beside them take too much room. I guess it isnt optimized for our milestones Can someone confirm if there is another way to make the landscape look bigger and better?

[APP] MiUi Camera working on any rom?

I have the MiUi camera app working on Superclean 2.9.2 and it works flawless gallery opens from it and everything it *SHOULD* work on any rom maybe except AOSP? (Confirm this for me anyone?)

You don't have to use it then, nobody is forcing you.. It's more proof of concept that a MiUi APK is working on another rom.

Thanks for the heads up DiGi. Its interesting to note that MIUI items can be ported over successfully.
Could the keyboard be ported as well?
Perfect
Now see this is what designs should look like. All these camera app on the market and basic ones that come on phones are just junk as far as the design goes. The Miui.apk is sleek and sexy. It's even really easy to navigate for what you need. It's the way it should be.

Annoyingly I can't find the person(s) who actually provided these mods. I'll try to keep the OP updated with any newer JB (4.2) apps I find.
I've installed them on my HD2 and they both work. The keyboard appears to be flawless. The camera has graphical glitches very much like we HD2 users had with Jelly Bean ROMs until very recently, but not as bad because they clear up enough to reasonably use the app. PhotoSphere does NOT work, though, because it says that our device isn't supported. That'll probably be fixed by a dev soon enough, but, for now, it won't even let you access the mode.

Yep, I thought as much from what others have said on another thread. Either way, you can see this video to see how awesome Photo Sphere is. Check the G+ link in that article as well, the resolution isn't half bad and the photo stitching is pretty much perfect, as we've come to expect from Google (Street View).
I got PhotoSphere mode to work by changing the ID to Galaxy Nexus in build.prop, but it's unusable. It sort of works, but it's excruciatingly slow and the accelerometer only barely works. It takes something like 30 seconds to take the first photo, then 30 seconds for it to allow you to take another, then another 30 seconds... at which point I ended up stopping the operation, but the resulting image wasn't even stitched together properly. It probably needs to be modified to work with the HD2's hardware. I'm no Android dev, so that'll have to be for someone else to figure out, though we might need the source for that.

Yep, that fixes the check for PhotoSphere, so that we no longer need to edit build.prop. It doesn't fix the other issues with the app, though. It's still unusable.

Here's the clock. I think it's a flashable zip. I installed it just with extracting it and then finding it in the system/app folder(not the real system).
It doesn't overwrite the original clock apk so you can have it too since it has a nice timer and stopwatch. Alarm doesn't work for me(Clock has stopped, or something similar).
EDIT: Sorry, I haven't seen that you have already posted the desc clock.
Anyway, if that one up there doesn't work for you, try this.

good news If only you could modify the rom for us it would be great. But we have to ask to the dev first..
Also noticed that the 203 dpi makes some graphical artifacts..
And the date is in chinese..
Lol, I would ask him, but I don't speak a word of Chinese, so I wouldn't know where to begin, and I don't know if google translate is a good start.
I can easily modify the ROM and bake it all in, as far as 203 dpi goes, what artifacts are you referring to? with the Chinese date, you mean the notification drawer?

Not really artifacts, just that sometimes texts are too small..

It seems like this ROM was built for 4.3" screens with 960x540 resolutions, so you can imagine why they don't work too well on 4" and 800x480 resolutions.
In fact, from what I see, the ROM works at it's prime when the dpi is even lower, maybe 190->200. I'm fine with small sized texts though lol
I see English dates on mine, with a bit of Chinese text down bottom on the notification bar (which I have no idea what it says). I'm gonna see if I can edit that out in the coming days when I have my free time.
As far as 240dpi patching of the play store, that's my forte
