Hi all,
Just rooted my S5 and adjusted the DPI in my build.prop to 400. Works great except my lockscreen alignment is all off. Any quick fix?

Same for me, I haven't been able to find much on it, but I think it is part of TouchWiz framework, not 100% sure though.

Yeah I never had the issue on my S3 but I was running a custom CM based custom ROM. I'm surprised that there isn't more mention of it as I would think there are a lot of people changing their DPI once rooted.

Very true, I am on VZW so no custom ROM for me as of yet. I just got the S5 for a good deal. I am coming from a Moto X DE and LG G2. I miss both but I also like a few things with the S5. But the 480 DPI on this phone makes me feel like I'm running 640x480 on a 21" LCD.. Very sad that they cant allow different resolutions for large screen devices at the least.

I have been using xposed App Settings app to adjust DPI on an individual app basis and it is a decent workaround.
Tapped it!
Anyone found a quick fix to this issue at hand (misalignment on lockscreen)?
If so, which App Settings app would be used to control the lockscreen DPI? I'm pretty sure lockscreen was part of SystemUI but won't that change my system DPI as well?

The lock screen is park of Keyguard.apk or something to that effect.
Also, SystemUI is only the status bar and similar things.

Keyguard helped make the circles on the fingerprint lockscreen bigger - but it is leaning more to the left because the lockscreen is scaled.

Not sure if everyone already figured this out but setting the systemui to 480 in app settings does fix the lockscreen issue. You just have to make sure that you reboot the phone. Unfortunately systemui controls a lot of the things that I want to have the lower DPI such as status bar. I then had to set 480 for the camera and the incallui to fix them.

SystemUI is basically most of the phone and the reason why people adjust it below stock in the first reason.
I might as well stick to stock DPI...LOL

Yeah that's what I was saying. I actually have gone back to 480 and am just using custom settings on apps I want. A lot of the stock Samsung apps only work properly at 480.

There is no fix for the lock screen. Samsung compiles all the firmwares with only one dpi in mind. To fix it someone would have to decompile keyguard.apk and increase all the values to the specific dpi. Pretty big project.
I wish the status bar and quicksettings were separate from the systemui then we could probably take care of them with the app settings xposed mod too

Hi all, I've been rooting/flashing/customizing my EpicTouch4G for a while, just upgraded to the S4, got it rooted with no issues.. Everything is working perfect so far, getting some apps installed and its running great. I didn't realize the S4 comes at 1.83gHZ..
So, my question is this, I like using low DPI settings, and on my ET4G, stock TW was 240DPI, on the S4, stock TW is 480DPI. Does anyone know the lowest DPI the S4 can run with stock TW? On the ET4G, I'm sure 160DPI was the lowest setting stock TW would run.
Thanks for the help

361 is a nice DPI, try it out.
Been looking to change DPI on TW for awhile on the S4 - posted a thread about it but no one had tried yet. What are you using to change it? Manually editing the build prop? And what have you guys personally safely changed it to?

You can use ROM Toolbox to edit the build.prop
Keep in mind that in TW, the dialer will be off-centered.

Thanks for the post. Is 361 as low as it goes without getting fc's to start? On my E4GT, I went from 240 to 160 (TW of course, I really like 100 or even 85 on AoSP based builds)
The reason why I am trying to find this info out before I test is because on TW, I have set it too low and soft bricked, I wasent able to fix cause of a boot loop.. so I am trying to avoid that happening on my S4

Well, I don't run TW at all... I only changed the DPI on TW because I had the phone before Loki was released, so I don't know the minimum... I've gone as low as 320, which I found too small... 240, 160, 100, 85, even if it did work, would be so tiny it would be unreadable... DPIs that low are fold old school phones like S1 and Nexus S... Old, crappy screens... I found 320 too small, but it worked...

Having been a flash'o'holic with my note 1 I really want to keep stock tw on the new note 3 for all the spen stuff. But I can't stand 340 dpi, is there going to be a way to switch this to at least 240 when we all finally get our notes? Or will it take awhile and involve custom sam apps to get this working? Failing that I fear I'll be rooting and flashing within the first month just hate everything blown up looking, this is the reason we buy big screen phones? For the extra screen space not a magnified look..
Chances are that many of the s-pen feature apps/functions will not work well with lower DPI... I'm just guessing from my experiences with both the GN1 AND GN2

I forgot what xposed framework app it was, but after changing dpi to 240 or 270, you could set other stock apps (like clock, phone, s-planner, etc) back to the stock dpi for no impact.
Its called app settings i believe

Agreed, 240 dpi rules
I used 240 dpi on my note 2 as well and that was very nice and worked perfectly with the spen.
But 240 will be to small on a 1080p screen (I run my s4 at 360 which is pretty much the same look) I guess everything will work just perfectly like it did in the note 2 @ 240 dpi. Looks the same

Stock dpi for the N3 will be 480. You can bring it down to 320 and it will be the same effect of going from 320 to 240 on the N2
And changing the screen DPI shouldn't affect the S-Pen features. From what I've read, The overflow feature it has is based on a sensor on the phone and pressing the button on the S-Pen. Every other input the S-Pen has will work fine as well.

Just use Xposed App setting after installing Xposed Framework .
Im running certain apps on 360 dpi without any problems with S-Pen features. Although I do feel that 360 is a tad too small on certain apps but again you can customize it for each app.

I too have just come from a note 1 and done something that was probably silly.
I rooted my note 3 and changed the build.prop to 260dpi with rom toolbox but when it booted the system ui fc's and I can't get anywhere.
After failing to open any apps, I went to recovery and wiped data, rebooted and dpi change has remained.
Is there anyway I can revert or at least get it working without flashing another rom? If it's the rom, can the stock one be picked up from anywhere?

Also, the reactivation lock is set back to on. Not sure how as I turned it off to root. Now I can't seem to flash a custom recovery due to that I think. Any ideas?

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?

Tried it, didn't work, "SystemUI has stopped" like before. I believe we have to modify SystemUI like the S4 to get the NavBar to work.

I'm pretty happy with "Ultimate Dynamic Navbar" on my phone. The one major downside is that it covers part of the screen. I just set it to the minimum height for now (it's bigger in the attached pic). But I love the customizable icons (Samsung style, HTC style, etc).
After that, I turned off the backlight in the system settings and used "Xposed Additions" to disable/remap the capacitive touch keys.

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:

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.

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.

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.
