[Q] Screen size change nightly 177->7.1 stable. - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need some help, hopefully someone else has encountered this.
I have updated from nightly 177 to 7.1 stable, and my home screen is all buggered up.
Here is the first screenshot, on nightly 177.
Everything is nicely ordered.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
On 7.1 everything has shifted, i cant put things back, (forgive the photo, screenshots no longer work on 7.1)
Ive tried putting the DPI back to 161, that makes no difference. I also changed the number of columns in ADW EX, this appears to fix it at first, but again thigns dont fit together as they originally did.
Any ideas?

Scratch that, the LCD density app wasnt changing the settings.
I did get this to work, even if screenshots can no longer be taken.

I'm running 7.1 and just took a screenshot a few seconds ago.
Work perfectly fine.

LCD Resolution works much better than LCD Density.

Tried cyanogen7 anyone else?

I tried it out but it was a bit bare for my liking. Guess its in betaBeta stage now. So im sticking with MiKfroyo for now. I am a great fan of cyanogen i'll wait.
It is in alpha stage so you cant expect too much
I tried it today for a couple of hours. Browsing seemed to be slightly faster (maybe it was my imagination). Everything else seemed to be the same as CM 6.1.1 as far as I could tell, but I didn't play with it for that long. Couldn't get SWYPE to work on it.
I flashed back to Fresh ROM, but will probably go CM permanently if they can get the cameras to work properly and support 4G.....hopefully with the final release of CM 7.....?
I tried out baby wipes once instead of toilet paper.

Running lithid 12/24/10 13:07 build. Love the speed, really really want CMParts and all the other tweaks, like the notification power widgets.
One bug I've noticed since I set my DPI to 162 is that whenever I select something in a list on the screen, I see a blue bar in the middle:

NC owners, little help here :)

So i decided to get myself nc and was wondering if it can read middle asian(georgian) unicode.
Can anyone go to this "forum.ge" with Nook, take screenshot and put it here?
Thanks, for help.
I just tried, both through DDMS and an app, but for some reason it was just a black screen both times.
I'll say this, though - the character I see appear to be the same ones I see using Chrome on my laptop. Although a few are styled slightly differently, everything seems to show up. Of course, I know nothing about Georgian, so I could be entirely wrong about that.

Change DPI on entire Gnote UI

Just tried this out and i must say it's pretty awesome.
Anyway, The app is called LCD resolution, Link to market below.
Basically it changes the DPI on your device(Any android, HD screens suggested)
I have tried the settings 280 and its pretty good with zero negative affects(So far), Best always to use a thirdy party launcher i believe. I use Go launcher.
Anyway, Give it a shot everyone and post some feedback on different DPI settings.
LCD Resolution Android MarketPlace
Edit, took a screenshot of my app launcher with a 6x6 row ratio, That is with the 280DPI setting, It actually looks extremely nice.

Weird lines on screen

Well, it started yesterday and it keeps driving me nuts. It's present both in the system as well as 4ext or even the splash screen so it is definitely a hardware issue. Is there any way to get rid of them because my contract ends in november but I was going to stay with my DHD and get myself a PS3 (very nice offer from my carrier)
It looks like that, it's not a screenshot but it looks exactly like that:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
what seems to be an officer problem?
the faint horizontal lines on the screen. That is only a picture but live they also flicker.
You could try replacing the screen yourself, but it could happen that the gpu is the problem, in which case you can't do anything on your own...

I remember having the same issue right after I bought my DHD and I remember rooting and reflashing it helped I recently changed my Radio software, you think it might have anything to do?
It's not hardware. I get it on the current versions of the 3 kernel. Synergy said it was to do with fb (not sure what it is) and he's working on it.

[Q] Illusion ROM screen resolution

Hello. I have installed a Illusion jb Rom on my S4 from Rogers, now I noticed that text size is too small, as if resolution of the screen in wrong. Tried all the settings but still no result. Everything looks incredibly small.

I'm not familiar with that rom, but go into settings, and see if you can find where to set the dpi settings. Set something larger than is current.

See in your screen shot where it says illusion settings? Click that change all the dpi to a higher number.

Thanks a lot guy. Did find the dpi settings but it already was at its highest of 480 dpi. What I also have found was a Reset to Original button, I hit that and after reboot everything got back to normal. It reset the custom preset Paranoid Android setting that came as part of this Rom.
