Quick Window App - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

can anyone tell me what app is used for the quick window? is it part of systemui? lockscreen?
i changed my dpi to 320, so everything is off in the window. i can change it back to 480 looks fine. i have the xposed framework so i can set that app to go at true dpi

Bump this!! I would love to know how to make the quickwindow line up with the case window once DPI is changed to 320. I have tried sql editing and locksscreen xpose framework setting with neither yielding me any results. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm in the same boat, I've been searching the options, I'm about to start experimenting

DPI Changes and camera

Ok guys, Got ya for ya.
I changed my dpi to 320, and bascially everything is working fine. The only problem is the camera is only using the top left of the screen. Its not taking up the whole screen. Annoying.
To try and fix it, I installed xposed framework and the module app settings, set it so the camera app uses the default 440 dpi. No change. Restarted. Same. Messed with the app some more, and come to the conclusion either i'm using it wrong or it doesnt work for our phones...
So my question to you, how are you overcoming this? Just living with it? The focal points are all messed up as well which is driving me nutso. Any suggestions?
Thanksss
is the default 440? i thought i remember someone saying in another thread they used xposed to set the camera back to 480 and that fixed it?

i'll have to try that... I was thinking 440.. but i could very well be wrong. trying now
Edit:
tried 480 and its not working....
Do you know if there are other settings i need to change as well? I changed the dpi in the app, but do i need to do anything with permissions or any of the other settings?
Thanks!
In app settings 480 DPI screen dp 480x854

How did you go about changing the DPI for everything? I have xposed and the app that lets me change it per app, but I'd like to make EVERYTHING 320 except for apps I modify with Xposed. thanks
Can you guys provide screenshots of your phone with your changed DPI? This is one of the main reasons I rooted my phone. Thanks.

you can simply change it by apps like lcd density/rom tool box. i get used to modify the build.prop.
Which module do you use to adjust dpi for camera? Thank you.

It works without reboot i just tried it.Put the 480 then saved,it said it will stop the camera app in order for the new changes to take effect.Try to use another value to see.
I will ask a stupid question.But did you changed the DPI of your phone and the camera now is not full screen as it was?
Can you screenshot your settings like I did so I can compare

I cannot post a screenshoot right now.But its the same thing you posted.And another stupid question is coming lol Do you have the app setting checked from within xposed installer?I have a feeling that it might be the problem.You need to check the module from within 1st in order for it to work.
Also guys when you want to change your phone DPI,and not do it app by app you can use Texdroider its in the store.
It's all checked and turned on. Oh well. Guess I'll just use the Lenovo camera. Thanks anyway.

Same here. Got the installer installed but no modules will work. Keeps saying failed to write in data/xposed/module_list. Hopefully there will be a fix soon
yes, working fine on my n9005 with app settings, also changed the default dpi to 320dpi now.
you must install 2.3 beta 1 or later for gn3.

not sure what im doing wrong, I cant seem to get app settings to work. I save the setting, launch and theres no change! Tried enabling, disabling, rebooting. Have noticed that it does not quite save the settings if I just press the save icon and leave the app. Bit weird! I am on a international N9005 stock rooted rom if that helps. Any ideas?

Sorry to revive this thread but I have the same problem with my rooted note 3. I can change settings for each app like dpi and the changes work but dp res changes don't work. I'm using the one from xposed repo.

Try to get buildprop editor and search for lcd_density to change the display default density. For N3, I think it better to set value between 380 and 400.

DPI adjustments

Was wondering if anyone had tested various DPI settings and have a list of working ones?

I've tried several: 280, 300, 320, 360, 400 & 420...all worked fine but you'd see issues in certain apps, and certain apps would jump into tablet mode (pretty sure that was on the lower ones, of course).
I stuck on 420 since it still shrinks things considerably down from the stock 480 but most apps don't have overlapping or other issues. The only app I've noticed an issue is the dialer, but not the phone on inbound or ongoing calls, just when you are dialing the number. You can still see the numbers and hit each with no problem, it's just shrunk up a little strangely. Other than that I'm loving 420 (no pun intended ). :good:
Awesome. What are you using to change dpi? On my note 2 with exposed you were able to choose dpi per application, anyone know if the module is working for that?
Can't remember the name of the mod.
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
Found it.
In downloads, app settings. If you use this you can modify only apps you want so you don't have to worry about compatibility or force closing system gui.
I set Novo launcher lower and a few other apps.

Update:
I changed the system ui to 420, along with Novo(remove shadow from desktop), and messaging and it looks perfect.
Fyi this doesn't break or distort the phone app.

Thanks for mentioning that module. I hadn't taken the time to look through all the options as I downloaded and set up a ton through Wanam's module and was pretty satisfied. Really glad you mentioned it so I can get the one wrinkle ironed out. Appreciate it bro!
If anyone plays around with SystemUI DPI and sees it kick into tablet mode with the bottom navigation bar please do tell which DPI setting!

I read in other threads that you were really interested in getting the bottom bar style tab mode going, and I know I mentioned tablet mode above in my response but that was only in apps, the System UI never changed...and I believe the person who responded to you in the other thread is correct - 4.3 android doesn't have that built in to the system UI as an option.
For example, before my Note 3 I had an Nexus 4 and was running Paranoid Android - the developers had to basically make tablet mode from scratch to keep the traditional bottom bar style going after 4.3. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I thought you should know. Of course somebody could endeavor to build it like PA did or we could get PA at some point but without that I doubt you'll find your holy grail anytime soon.
Also guys you'll want the play store fix. Play store by default will his apps based on your dpi, This mood will fix that.

Yeah, I use either 320 or 360 mostly when I want to change an app. 320 can be a little bit too small sometimes, but right around that zone I think is ideal. Though I really haven't changed a ton of apps, mostly System, Chrome, reddit, Facebook, XDA, Go SMS that I can think of off the top of my head.

Agreed, though I went as low as 360 for System, just because I wanted notifications to be shorter in the pull down so I can see more. I usually have several persistent ones in there now, so I want to be able to see all of my actual notifications as well.
See attached for notification size @ 360 dpi.

I've just installed texdroider dpi from the play store. It's currently set at 480 dpi on stock , anybody used this to go any lower. If so what are you guys using?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Search for Xposed, read about it, install it and use the 'app settings' module to change the dpi of everything on your note!
Respect!
DPI is easily changed in build.prop, but some apps don't display properly, or it might just be choosing the correct dpi for those apps to scale like they should.
Right now I'm using 420 as my default dpi, and xposed/app settings to change the dpi to default for the dialer and the camera to scale properly.

With texdroider doesn't this change the whole dpi where as app settings is just the apps you choose?

It's your choice, either change the system dpi in build.prop and then fix apps that won't scale properly with App Settings, or go the other way around change each app independently.

DPI change

Hey guys. Anyone have success changing the DPI yet? I've tried ROM Toolbox Pro and DPI Changer but still a no go. I'm rooted, Xposed installed and on the latest FW.

Use the nova launcher to change it. No root required. Search it online. Its called Compressed.

Yeah but doesn't that just resize your home screen? To change the system DPI I'm pretty sure the app requires root access.

Thanks and sorry but could you throw a few more details my way? I'm using Nova and have for years. I'm not seeing a setting anywhere within the Launcher for Compressed. I Googled "Nova Launcher compressed" and it didn't give me anything.
I could just be missing it. Thanks
EDIT: I think I remember now what you are talking about. The problem with that was I didn't see an option to use any custom DPI. Like 540 for example.

The dpi and resolution of this phone is easily changed using adb, no root required.
adb shell wm density NUMBER
Just change number to your desired dpi. This does mess up the camera if its not a 4:3 aspect ratio.
Also to change resolution:
adb shell wm size 1080x1920
This changes the resolution to 1080 like the battery saver options on the note 7.
Thanks. I don't use adb much but I'll study up on it. Hopefully using App Settings from Xposed will correct any camera issues. Appreciate the response.
