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.

Just changed my DPI to 440 and after reboot, stuck on "Samsung Galaxy Note 3" splash screen. Battery pull, and still stuck right there.
Did you not have nova launcher? I hear other carriers people are using 320

I did have Nova installed as my default home launcher. COuld of been another option that I removed/disabled with Tibu. But when I redo everything again with all the same things removed under Tibu, and I restarted, everything worked fine. Only did not restart after I made DPI changes. I did also have Xposed turned on with some modules running. Want to try it again, but I hate going thru process of setting everything up again if it does not work. We need a recovery for this phablet! :silly:
blap017: How did u change your DPI? App or build.prop?

How low did you go and did you use nova and another keyboard as default. If you do no reason it should. I set mine to 320 just to see. Had Google keyboard and nova. No loops and set it in the build prop. However I like 480 it seems.

I'm running at 320 with Nova and the Samsung KB. 320 on this device seems pretty equivalent to 280 on the Galaxy Nexus, for anyone interested. I changed mine through ROM Toolbox.
320 is tiny. Supposed to be the same as 240 on the note 2 but it seems smaller...
Not to mention some apps can only run at 480. We need a list of apps so we can make app settings changes.

Dear all,
I have been trying to adjust the lcd density by editing the build.prop, but somehow changing the value does not seem to have any effect. I also tried wiping the cache and dalvik cache via twrp after applying the build.prop edit, but still no luck.
My previous experiance with non samsung devices was just editing the build.prop and making a reboot to acheive the result.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

Ok. Answering myself. Seems the build.prop has the density value listed twice. Once i changed it in both instances then all went ok. Btw, imho 160 dpi looks way better
Sent from my SM-T310 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You mean you set both 160, I also noticed that the density value listed twice too, because I am thinking of switching my Tab 3 7.0 to PhoneUI. Phone, Contacts, Messages & Email in TabletUI are annoying. The column for names of peoples in portrait mode is too small.
Yup. Switched both to 160. Now it looks like this

Another nice thing i discovered is that the multi window thing now opens apps in floating popups rather the the split screen. Afaik this is the way its done on the bigger screen tabs.
The downturn of this is that you cannot drag the windows around the screen and cannot resize those.
Could it possibly be that someone has an idea of how to port the functionality from the eg 10.1 model?
Could assume that this might take a replacement of the flashservice apk by another one.
What do you ppl think?

hi, i just rooted my tab3 8inch and installed xpose framework and app setting module,
from here you can set per app DPI setting instead of change the whole DPI.
i have notice that Gmail and G+ app look awesome with 160 DPI and 800x1280 DP
Hi. And thanks for the heads up. Though i am fully aware of the xposed app settings, but i do preferr the whole system at 160 dpi seems to make a much better use of the screen real estate...
What i was wondering was if its possible to port the multi window where you can actually drag windows around the screen that ive seen in a review of a bigger tab 3...

Ok... so hg need help!
Changed the build prop to 160 in 2 places where screen density was mentioned. One had the value 213 and the other 320.
Rebooted and now the tab wont get past the samsung logo right before the lockscreen... any ideas?

2 rlrmineiro, mate you shluld be carefull when editing the build.prop and make sure you set the file's permissions same as they were before the edit. This goes for all the system file edits.

Hum... will try changing permissions then...

OK... managed to change the doing and am on 160 looks great. Tried 240 and looks like a phone and 200 cuts a bit of the screen to the right and breaks some apps... do you have any other working solutions? Thanks

Well for the android there are some standard dpi's like 160, 240, 360, 480 are the ones i can remeber...
Most of the apps should support all of these, but no guarantee for the samsung stuff. For me 160 is the daily driver and i use xposed with the app setting plugin for the things that look weird
Sent from my C6603 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Ive been fumbling around a little bit and found out that 188 dpi looks best for me as it keeps the text a little bit bigger. Im also using the xposed mod to setup individual apps to my liking as playstore and youtube to large screen tablet ui. Couldnt find a dpi for the gallery to always display the thumbnails without cutting a bit of the right side margin. Thx for your help.

Yeah I checked mine, only one in build.prop I have the 10.1 and its 160dpi stock.

Im on the 7" (210R) and edited the line I would think is necessary (lcd.density.etc - as usual with minor changes only for different types). Their is not 2 lines in this one, but their is one. Changed, fixed the permission set back, guess I cant fix permissions in Philz Touch 5, and thats weird. It was originally 240, now 160, and i see no difference. lol Havnt done the xposed route yet with this, but I would only use that for some apps to change either back or to a different dpi. Its very odd.
^^^^^ you try setting the permissions for buildprop manually using something like root explorer?
Sent from my EVO 4G LTE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
That's how I edited it, and actually screwed it up. Had to make a flashable build.prop to get back to normal. I guess their are issues with these tablets and editing build.prop. made a flashable build.prop with 160 dpi to no avail.

That looks pretty good. But for me it's no luck. Keeping 160 dpi messed up my touchwiz. Any solution to fix this? BTW, thanks for sharing the info.
Is there any way to change dpi of note 10.1 2014..
And does lowering dpi really makes apps run faster?.

If ya wanna change some apps DPI you may install xposed and DPI module and change any app you want. " must be rooted "and does it change device speed , i dont know

I think you have to be rooted to change dpi. There are several apps but they can soft brick you very easily. Best is what is mentioned above. Be rooted, install xposed framework, and install the "app settings"" module. From there you can tweak individual dpi for almost everything. I adjust the following to get good uniformity, systemui, launcher (whichever you are using) and settings. Works great on my devices. I don't have the SGN 10.1 yet but that's the plan. It also allows you to change just the font size or lock rotation for a particular app, or even force full screen.

Anywhere from 370ish to 420 is a good res on the N3, try them all and see. It depends on your eyes really and whats comfortable. I used to run 400.
In Nova settings just change your Grids to whatever you want 6*6 etc etc.
