Motorola Droid :: MOD Change Your LCD Density

Nov 25, 2010

I don't know if anyone else is as addicted to a 200 LCD density as me but the LCD density changer app was causing FC like crazy. So I thought there had to be another way. It's real easy, and takes 5seconds to do...
1: open root explorer and go to /system
2: open the build prop and locate the line about half way down that says 'LCD density = 240.
3: change the value to 200 and save (it will automatically create a backup in case of a Rom issue)
4: reboot
I'm sure you can copy the build.prop file to your computer and edit and reinsert the file or use astro + god mode script on some Rom. Just be sure to make a backup as root explorer is the only one I know of that makes a backup automatically.You will notice the clock is smaller as well as a host of other great changes. I'm addicted to a smaller size but there are a few issues I've found.

HTC Desire :: Change LCD Density

Oct 4, 2010

Has everyone seen that you can change the LCD density on the Desire? (Well, on all Android handsets really). It simulates a higher resolution, fits more text on screen etc. There's an app on the market which does it, although it won't work on the Desire unless you're S-OFF. All you need to do is extract the build.prop file from /system to your PC (in recovery, use ADB PULL), and using a text editor change the value of LCD Density from original 240 to 200, then ADB push it back and reboot. I'm *really* pleased with the result. Combined with Launcher Pro I've a whole new feel to my phone...

Android : How To Support Devices With Normal Screen - High Density Or Low Density?

Nov 15, 2010

I read the official document about supporting multiple screens http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html

According to that document, I should just create different directories for different resolultion.

Now the question. How to support devices with normal screen and high density or low density?

I ask it because, there are two posibilities (WVGA800 (480x800) and WVGA854 (480x854)) and (WQVGA400 (240x400) and WQVGA432 (240x432)) and I don't know where to store some background images for them.

I would take drawable-normal-hdpi or drawable-normal-ldpi, but how to make difference between 480x800 and 480x854 or between 240x400 and 240x432?!

Android :: What Ratio Of Dp-to-pixel Change With Screen Density?

Feb 28, 2009

I'm being confused by the 'screen density' concept in Android. I knwe that dpi (dot per inch) came from the printing device. 160 dpi means 160 dots in every inch on the paper. However, when dpi is used for the screen density, for example, what's mentioned '160 dpi screen' in Android document, what's the meaning? 160 pixels on every inch of the display?

As described in http://code.google.com/intl/zh-CN/android/reference/available-resourc..., 1 dip (density-independent pixel) means 1 pixel on a 160 dpi screen. Why does the ratio of dp-to-pixel not necessarily change with the screen density in direct proportion?

When the dpi is changed from 160 to 80, how many pixels will 1dp will take? 0.5?

I can hardly understand why dip/dp is introduced into Android.

HTC EVO 4G :: Want To Run LCD Density Changer

Oct 2, 2010

I'm running cm6 and the Galaxy S Theme. I would like to run my density at 160 because I really love how tiny the icons look on my screen. However, when I run the density to that setting my notification menu bar no longer stretches across the top of the screen, it appears as a small square in the left hand corner. I also have the same problem in the market place, where the grey background should stretch across behind where it says "market". My friend runs his at 160 and has no problems like this, however he is not running cm6 or the theme I am. So, while it doesn't really narrow it down any, I'm sure the problem is in one of the two, more likely the theme in my mind. Any idea's how I can fix or repair this problem?

General :: LCD Density On SGY GT-S5360

Feb 14, 2014

I have a problem with my sgy s5360 (rooted). i recently changed my lcd density in error and instead of the 120 default setting, I changed it to 288. that was really frustrating. I haven't been able to fix it myself. I have already done the factory reset but that didn't work. I used the ROM toolbox. Now my sgy is like in a zoomed state. Large fonts, cannot unlock and change to default setting. I cannot click the android icon that can be seen when you reboot your phone and did the factory reset. assistance is badly needed. i have browsed through the theads, but this issue has not been addressed.

HTC Incredible :: LCD Density Changer Brick

Sep 20, 2010

Running Incredible with Froyo. I rooted using Unrevoked3, but I forgot to make the nandroid backup, I guess. the LCD Changer app has my reboot looping. After the very first HTC Incredible screen it goes totally white and I just hear the "Droid" voice(plays when the red droid eye comes up on screen normally" nothing but white and the voice just repeats after the screen flashes every minute or so. Tried applying the update.zip that was linked to on the developers blog, but no luck. Any ideas? I even tried resetting to factory defaults, formatted everything, basically. Lost a great of data, I'm afraid, but I just want my phone back.

Android :: Way To Inflate Layouts With Different Density?

Oct 21, 2010

I'm wondering if it is possible to inflate a layout using a different density value than the default system density. I have a high density layout, which looks good on the Galaxy Tab (1024x600px, hdpi) and I like to use the same layout on another tablet with the same pixel resolution but medium density. The mdpi layout which is used works on the device but the screen just looks really empty and I would prefer to scale things up. So is there a xml argument for scaling the layout, maybe something similar to Bitmap.Options.targetDensity. Or could this be done with a new LayoutInflater class?

HTC EVO 4G :: Phone Screen Pixel Density?

Jun 9, 2010

A lot of hay is being made over the iPhone4's 326 ppi screen density. I was just curious, for comparison purposes, what's the pixel density of the Evo screen? This would be an easy calculation to do if I knew what the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the screen were, but I can't seem to find that information anywhere.

If anyone knows the pixel density or even just the exact X and Y dimensions of the screen..

Android : How To Force Hw.lcd.density For Specific App?

Nov 16, 2009

Is it possible to force Android to use a given LCD density value? For example, if the app is running on a WVGA phone that reports LCD density of 160DPI *and* screen size of 3.7inch, one of those two values must be wrong. Is it possible to tell Android to ignore the 160DPI value and use 240DPI instead (for my Activity only)?

Samsung : Android Screen Density Compatibility On 1.5

Jun 17, 2010

I'm getting ready to release my first application the marketplace. It's being written for devices running Android 1.5 and above, however there aren't any specific folders for the three different screen densities (I think those came around in 1.6). Should I make these folders myself? Where should I put image resources for the different densities and what should I put in my Manifest?

Single Layout That Work For All Tabs In Any Density?

Aug 19, 2013

I am facing problem in running application with HIGH & LOW density with single layout(xml file). I have read so many threads and verified developers.android site too..

All mentioned to specify the size of the components should be in dp or wrap_content or fill_content, then android itself take care of the density use,since android is density independent.

And also to place the layouts in layout-nodpi folder for density free. Then in one of the thread, they mentioned to use

<supports-screens android:resizeable="true"
android:largeScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true"
android:anyDensity="true"></supports-screens>.

I also tried by placing the layouts in ldpi,mdpi,xhdpi and hdpi.But no use.

I have tried all the above,but i couldnt get the application UI same in two different density.. I am using "Funbook micromax"[Normal density] and "Intex iBuddy"[Low density] model, both are 7 Inch.

use single layout to be work in all type of density and screen size..

Motorola Droid :: Why To Change From 1x To 3x So Often?

Dec 29, 2009

I have a few questions and have decided to put them all in one post instead of three

1. Almost every call I make or receive from a sprint customer is dropped, is there a reason for this, my freinds with sprint say that only calls to me are dropped.

2. After closing the navi***tion app, and/or closing the task it still apears as using up to 40% of my battery. How do I completly close it.

3. Why do I change from 1x to 3x so often? And why even when I have 3x can I sometimes not load pages or timeout?

4. Why does the power managment widget sometimes not do anything (only on my replacment droid)

5. Why is the phone app so bad. Its very slow and deffinatly not built fro someone who needs to call fast (like in an emergancy) will there be updates for it or is there a 3rd party app for it.

6. I am typing this from my phone and noticed that my typing is fasteer then the input in the text area, it seems to lag input while typing, is that a possible browser issue?

7. Haptic feedback is inconsistant, sometimes it is long vibration sometimes it its short, sometimes it is double. Also feels like parts are loose when it vibrates, like hardware is vibrating/loose. Where are the settings for feedback?
