Lcd density and apps crashing? - Galaxy Tab General

So I've been noticing issues where a app works then it doesn't after I lower my density using lcd density changer with compatibility off certain apps crash either on start or in the applications, I'm assuming because the app wasn't designed for that density.
I'm using stock tmobile rom with launcher pro zrooted and
anything below 182 camera app crashes
Anything below 240 crashes skype when I try to access my info on skype or try to access info of a contact to make a call

I run at 130 DPI and don't suffer any crashes. When you say you set compatibility off, did you use the 'Spare Parts' app, or something else?

I do have spare parts but didnt make changes, compatibility is a option in lcd density changer i kept it default off, because with it on my apps stopped scalling normally

Market compatibility issue after MIUI?

I get this everytime i try to download a simple app for example: Google Books.
This app is incompatible with your T-Mobile Samsung T959.
T-Mobile Samsung T959
This item is not compatible with your device.
This has happened AFTER flashing miui...
is anyone else facing this without miui or with miui?
bonus question:
where are the books in google books stored in sd card? im trying to make my personal ebook but i want to just try it with google books, how can i do that?
Bump please help
I'm assuming you did the standard clear market data and wipe cache. That's all I got. Maybe a build prop issue?

yep i'm so pissed off right now. Anyways, i'm going back to the stock version of miui, maybe its because i've been using it for a long time?
edit: doing that fixed it. thanks for the help.
I was trying to help someone with this same exact problem. No solution was found. He even made sure the device fingerprint was okay. What finally worked was installing a different ROM
any Ideas how to fix this market problem?
Hmmmm. it seems that my problems with Android Market was due to the DPI change which I made - the display density.
I changed my HTC Desire back from 200 dpi to the default value if 200 dpi, after that I cleared Android Market data and cache and restarted the phone.
After that on Android Market the problem with the "This item is not compatible with your device" error on some applications was fixed.
P.S. For changeing the display density you can use one of this apps from the Market: LCD Density or LCD Density Changer
Thanks this fixed my i9000.
But WTH causes this. I don't see how changing the dpi could break market, unless app's are searching for a specific dpi range?

market organizes the apps and checks if their compatible with your device, if your device has some random ass density, then the market notices that and tries to find all apps that fit that screen size, and the apps then do not show up because the apps are made for certain, and regulated displays, which doesn't include a dpi like 642 or something

Market Bug (Tab 7)

I keep getting a weird bug, When I try to get a app out of the market where it usually says install/download I don't have the option only the app icon. The last time I tried to fix this I needed to change the density but now its on stock apps that always installed like angry birds wont now.
Anyone else have this problem?

Yup, I have the same issue. Latest Stock ROM, rooted, density temporary set back to 220 with LCD Density but still no cigar... I get search results in latest version of the Market app but for a number of apps no Install option.

Weird thing is tho is if you uninstall updates you can download them but as soon as it auto updates it that's it your screwed. Its putting me off,something so basic

Try setting the density back to 240, not 220. I get this often. Appbrain will show that an app had an update (but looking on the market no updates show as available) but when I go through the process it won't update (no update button appears). I them set my density to 240 and them they will update no issues. Then I just set it back to what I want afterwards.

[Solution]Fix market compatibility issues when using custom DPI

Someone pointed this out to me in other section and it actually works great
for those who change your density you are well aware of the compatibility issues with the market and only way to fix is to change back to 240dpi update or download and then have to change back in buld.prop...its a pain to say the least
xda member theb1rdm4n
released a density changer that includes a modded market app that he keeps up to date
that allows you to spoof original 240dpi with market and still maintain your custom density setting
by default with custom dpi you cant update your apps and allot of apps are missing on market because of this
But lower DPI is just too good to pass up
anyways here is the link to his page
FYI its only in the pro version

Market titles black, cannot see them

Guys, I have been running deck's latest ICS pb's and Mazwoz's but I have a problem - the Market is "blacked out", like the titles are black and much of the background is, which means I cannot see a names unless I click on the app and it is a real pain. I run LCD Modder Pro and I cannot recall if this was a problem before or is a result of its modded Play Store, but I do know that changing themes within my launcher (Go Launcher) doesnt fix it. Any ideas on how I can get the text back to something like white without losing my modded Market that let's me run my 200dpi setting?
Its a problem with hdpi drawable in your modded market , I believe. You using rujeluss22 market?

Camera App Doesn't Open

I Have Mediapad M3 And I Used Adb To Decrease Dpi To Be Able To Use Apps In Tablet Mode. But Now When I open camera app and choose pro photo or hdr or any other option the camera app crashes and can't be opened unless i clear the app data. When i changed dpi back to the normal 440 the app worked normally but now i can't use apps in tablet mode.
Does anyone have a similar problem or knows how to solve this problem without reversing dpi ?

I use Camera Zoom (from Play Store) instead of the stock camera app. It works fine at 320 DPI.

Thanks for your help but if you tried using the stock app does it crash if you choose different options or is it just me ?
