Hi guys,
I'm trying out LCDDensity and it works well except the space on each screen for icons does not change? By this i mean, when the resolution was at 240, i could fit 5 icons across. Now that i've changed it to 180, there is extra space on the right hand side but i can't put any icons on there.
Is that correct or is there a way around it?
That is correct. The stock launched has designated a 5x5 icon space on the homescreen. Changing your density won't change that.

I have mine set to 220. Doesn't add much real estate on the screen but the picture does look more crisp.

I've set mine to 182, so the camera app still looks nice and downloaded AWD launcher. This way I can change the number of icons to 8x8 instead of the stock 5x5 icons.

Is there either a way to center a widget that is 4 spaces wide, or set the screen to be only that wide?
I don't wanna screw up the resolution or change the density, but I really want to center this thing.
Thanks guys.

You can use a different home screen such as launcher pro, or adw launcher that will allow you to change the number of columns or resize your widget to 5x4.
Otherwise there is no way with samsung home.

Try out Zeam Launcher it was developed by XDA.
LauncherPro works fine for me.
i use launcher pro with 4 width wide, but using 4x1 or 4x2 widget clock/weather still makes it not centered >.<
anybody knows about clock/weather widget that looks like sense and free that will fit nicely on launcher pro?
I can personally recommend lcd density changer (reqiures root) combined with launcher pro.
I've set the density setting to 180, and configured my launcher pro homescreen to have 6 colums and 10 rows. I looks great and it feels fantastic. Also it takes much better advantage of the 7" screen
edit: I see now that you don't want to "screw up the resolution". But with launcher pro, you can even adjust the size of most widgets. If you press and hold a widget like you are about to move it around, but lift your finger of the screen when the widget "pops out". You can drag the lower right corner that appears, and thereby strech or shrink as you please. Be aware that some widgets look wierd if you push the limit
Set home screen column width to 6, it will be centered then - does on my device no problem?
I know this is not something we can do, but hoping a dev will see this and answer, but now that we can change the size of the screen from 240 to 220 or 180, thats great, but can the preset size of the space it keeps be changed to? For example:
You have 4 icons or more, if you press and hold to move the icons there is a size box in green/yellow border that as you move the icon moves, but now the box is bigger then the icon, if we could make it smaller, then we would be able to put more icons on the screen.
Anyone else feel the same way?

not sure if this is exactly what you want, but launcher pro allows you to change how many icons you can fit horizontally or vertically
also take a look at Multi icon widget:

Actually yes thats what I was talking about, but can it be done without the need of a 3rd party app? And thanks for pointing me to this app.
this mod would be awesome for htc sense. it's one reason why i changed from sense to gingerbread (with go launcher)...
I have just installed HyperDroidGBX which have low dpi. I like it a lot, with exception of one problem - widgets. They are smaller and have a lot of free space round them now.
Is there any way to stretch them, so they would be normal size?
EDIT: look at the attachment if you have no idea, what am i talking about. There is too much free space.
download propeditor.apk and look in build.prop for lcd.density.. change it to 240 or any other value
i see you have launcherpro.. let me make a suggestion - change the LCD.density to 194 and set the number of rows per page to 6.. it looks clean and fits both large set widgets, small set widgets and shortcuts perfectly
I wanted to keep the density, but thanks for the 194 suggestions. I will try it.
Wait, where to set number of rows to 6? I can only find option to increase it to 5.

Launcherpro 0.8.4.1 has the options for columns and rows up to 10, maybe only the pro(paid) version has this feature.

Ah, i have found it. I was looking into advanced section, where was only one option (to extend to 5 rows). Thanks.

How did it change in the first place? Sounds like you have changed your density? Stock density is 240...

I think as a result of a certain application download. Could you please elaborate more how i can adjust the density that u refered to.
Search market for "LCD Density" - I use one of the paid versions... Open it and inside you can change the value... As said before, stock value is 240...
/CK
Or you can just change it right in the build.prop why would you pay an app to do that?

Hello i don't think this is possible. However i found out that theme changes make quite a difference in icon sizes. Some themes have much bigger icons.
Install a decent launcher and you can make the icons any size you like. Nova, for.example.
Yes Nova launcher is the best in my opinion
hold your finger on home screen then into home screen settings
homescreen grid to 5x5
apps screen grid to 5x5
