I have a z5p and find no problem with text size or anything, what is the problem with having a DPI that high?

screen resolution

Anyone know of a way to temporarily change the screen resolution to be 320 x 320...I have an application I use in my business that only supports up to 320 x 320.
have you tried using it under normal conditions? What are your results? I don't know of a way to do what you are saying. My thoughts are it would just be very small. Bad programing. Can you tell us more about the program?

Not sure what you mean by normal conditions...The program is to take applications for insurance and loans...the problem I am having is that my client has to be able to sign in a box on the application and nothing happens when you try to write in the sign box... the application worked fine on my Wing and works fine on the Touch Pro 1. I called my tech department and one of the guys I talked to stated that becuase the phone is 480 x 800 and the support where is for 320 x 320 is the reason the signatures are not working.

That worked as far as changing the screen resolution, however, it did not fix my problem. I can now go back to my tech department and tell them screen resolution is not the problem.
Thanks for the help guys.

Change LCD Density

Has anyone been able to successfully change the LCD density on the Nitro HD yet? 320 is a little too Preschool / Fisher Price for me. I've tried 160, but get stuck with a loop at the AT&T screen. I'm going to try some different sizes and see what I can do. I'm imagining the problem has something to do with the LG customized interface.
Might want to be careful there dbjungle, messing around with that could do some serious harm.

Very true. I use an app on the market called LCD Density and it has an option to use a density temporarily.
While testing I found that 160 is just unrealistic for this device. That's what I used on my Inspire which has a much lower dpi to begin with. I am working comfortably at 265 right now, but maybe I can go just a little bit lower. Hopefully all apps are still scaling properly.
Honest question here...
What is the purpose of lowering the LCD density and what would it do?
Basically you can fit more on screen. It's not that useful for the home screen, but it's pretty cool for your web browser, tapatalk, e-mail and texting. With the stock density you can only see like one line of your own text message.
I ended up only being able to get down to 264 for my lowest density.

It's especially useful on a phone with a 720p IPS display.

You can go below 264 if you turn this flag to "false" in build.prop before a reboot - tried it myself assuming you are using a different homescreen - these turn off the LG lock screen and stock lockscreen comes into play. 144 is too small but being 16X9 = 144, everything is properly aligned. 192 is also on the smaller side (144+16X3), 240 suits me....enjoy..

Good tip. I feel like I finally have some room in my apps again now.

200 DPI making icons blurry

As your ask know the stock DPI on our phones is 320. Well I like to set it to 200, I feel the most comfortable with that resolution but one thing I've noticed is that my icons get blurry/pixelated and it looks really bad. Does any one know it's a fix for this that doesn't income me setting the DPI on 320 or 240

Running CM10.1 nightly with a DPI of 210 and everything is sharp as hell. Must be something wrong with your screen. But what ROM are you on?
I'm on the same Rom. I've noticed it with different phones to. I'm about to try 210 DPI and see how that goes.

It's just a hair bigger. You really shouldn't be seeing any blurry anything with how high the resolution is on this screen.

[Q] Changing the LCD DPI Density

Hi everyone!
So, let's suppose that we have a rooted LG G3 (done with the current rooting methods), running stock ROM. Because I always like to cramp as many widgets on the home screen as possible, I want to change the DPI density of the screen (usually 3-rd party launchers allow you to only rescale the shortcuts, but not the widgets). We coud use the Texdroider app from the Play store, but it changes the DPI globally, so I'm worried it might harm the phone... Another way would be to install Xposed Framework - but can it be installed already safely at this point?
Of course ruining the stock Launcher by changing the DPI is not a problem, as I always use some 3-rd party Launchers that can handle layouts more flexibly
I'm also interested in changing LCD density on G3.
Has anyone done it?

Tnx, but I was thinking on global change. On my old GS2 it was matter of simply editing build.prop file.
My setting was 182 which was great. But I remember that if you over do it, phone will not boot and without nandroid backup it is quite risky.

Use Textroid - You can use Build.Prop it'll work fine, just go no lower than around 400 or you will run into issues (for the record stock is 650)

Actually 640 is default.
Anyway, 530 is the lowest value. Any below that and apps will start to FC.
Pitty, because on 450 screen is amazing!

I went to 480 and lost icons (they became little green androids) I had to set back to 650 for default in order for it to show properly again.

Exactly the same. On 530 icons are still normal.

It is not much as I expected, but still it is better then stock density.
It's a keeper.
changed it to 580 and its bootlooping now. any help?
well...this is kinda roundabout so it works and I'm not complaining...I disabled or removed all of my AT&T apps and the useless LG ones...so I set my dpi to 450 and changed the per app dpi to 530 for the lg apps...problem solves...especially since I barely use the lg apps.

I did the same thing and I'm stuck on this wretched infinite boot loop. Did you get any help on this if so can you please post the fix to your woes?
EDIT: So I tried to use the built-in factory reset ... nothing doing. STILL boot looping. I'm wondering if I should start panicking now? haha

LG apps can't go below 530 DPI. You'll need to individually them to 530 or higher to keep them from crashing.

Question how to change aspect ratio of phone

hello, i wanted to change my aspect ration to 4:3 to have a stretched resolution like pc on my whole phone
there is a app called easy dpi changer. It changes resolution, the only thing you get black bars (not stretched res).
is there any way to make it stretched instead of black bars?
here are some screenshot how it looks like after resolution is changed.
thanks
If you stretch 4:3 to fill the 20:9 screen you'll end up cutting off part of the display.. so I think it's not an option

I know it, but thanks for the tip anyway.
It needs root and I'm actually unrooted.
Other apps just works with adb, like P ixels:Resolution+DPI changer, in playstore.
(#com.tribalfs.pixels) if searched outside.
I think it also has more option than the one you mentioned.
