So I got my ATT s4 last night. It's now rooted with superuser and froze all my bloat with tibu. Question is can I use xposed installer and xposed settings to set my dpi on a per app level?? Loving the phone. Coming from my beastly S3.
I did it and it softbricked my phone . Had to to a master clear from stock recovery. You are welcome to try

DON'T install it, unless you'd like to go through the (thankfully now available) softbrick recovery method(s).
I typically use ROM Toolbox to change my LCD Density . Is it a bad idea for now since I might f-ed it up and the only way of recovering it is via soft bricked recovery method?

Not 100% sure as I haven't tried it myself, but IIRC several users reported bootlooping after trying to change the density via build.prop edits (which I'm pretty sure is basically what ROM Toolbox does).
If you really want to change it, I recommend using the App Settings module for Xposed...rovo89 released an updated version (2.1.4) of the Xposed framework that is compatible with our S4's.
yeah, so far all dpi changes I've read about on the forums have lead to softbricks, so I'd avoid for now
I'm running 380 dpi right now via Rom Toolbox Pro. Also using xposed framework as rovo has put up a build that works for all s4's and htc one's. Using 480 dpi for camera and contacts. Those are the only 2 apps that do not look correctly @ 380 dpi. I have someone working on the dialer for us to work correctly @ 380 dpi. Here's the link for xposed. Make sure to download and install 2.1.4 version of the xposed installer.

Thanks for the quick reply guys. I'll probably going to wait for a bit before I mess around with the DPI. I had a softbrick not too long ago on the Skyrocket and that was an easy fix with a Nandroid.

Okay I can't take it anymore. I need a smaller DPI. It's driving me nuts. Do I just download the XposedInstaller_2.1.4.apk and install it and then change the DPI settings via Rom Toolbox ? How do you make the app to stay 480 DPI for those that are not compatible like dialer and such ? Can I replace the apk from the ones on this thread ?

Hello all, I have searched but to no avail, so if I have missed it I'm sorry. I have changed the DPI of my note 4 to 480, looks great. Have changed the DPI of the camera back to stock DPI as it was a bit screwie. My question relates to the lock screen. Anyone know what I select in app settings in xposed framework to revert the lock screen back to normal DPI. I am using a stock KitKat ROM.
Cheers in advance for any replies.
Are there any modified Touchwiz apks that support perhaps 5x5 and 480 dpi? Thanks!
what im about to ask is how to change dpi on zenfone 5.
