I want the font size to increase insize and stay that way.
Any software to edit font size and flash to the Sony x10 ?
Thanks for any help given
There is a free app called Font Changer in the Market (root required).

Hi,
Thanks for your reply
Yes i have tried that, its ok but you cannot increase the size of the font.
You can only change the style of the font.
Would you like to make everything on ur phone larger? If so as you've got root edit /system/build.prop
Change ro.sf.lcd_density=240 to
ro.sf.lcd_density=300
It may cause some graphical glighes in badly programmed apps that expect the same screen size including some of the android pop up boxes and some stock SE apps. For example gaps may appear or not all the screen is used but most apps work fine I've only tried making things smaller thou (mine is set to 200). If 300 is too big/small try a different value. Restart to apply changes. Think there is a density changer app on market for temp changes to test.
Use root tool.
I know you Will say I want to incense the size
Yes there are some fonts which t very big so you can apply.

Does anyone know which app is responsible for drawing the android lockscreen? I set my build.prop DPI down to 320, which is awesome for most of the device, but it makes the lockscreen unlock grid really tiny. I have access to the xposed per-app dpi settings on my phone, and have successfully fixed other problematic applications, but I can't seem to find the lockscreen anywhere. Any input would be appreciated.
Lockscreen is controlled by Android System. I set it to 320 just to test it and it messes up a lot of stuff.

Really, like what? I've been running like this for a month and the only thing I've noticed was the small unlock grid (and a few samsung apps with weird layouts that I have since fixed individually)
Also, if I adjust android system, it will adjust everything (font, notif. bar, etc...) Any idea on how to adjust only the lockscreen?
I set dpi to 320 and my keyboard blew up to the point I could only see four or five of the keys. TW Launcher on the other hand shrunk to the size of a 4" phone. I could've fixed most of the issues but I didn't feel like messing with it. Also, I don't know how to adjust only the lockscreen. I think that modifying it without some dev experience would be difficult.

Hi fellas.
I am using textdroid_dpi to change my whole system dpi from 480 to 400.
I also used Xposed App Settings to change DPIs back to default per certain apps (eg. camera). However, I can't seem to set the DPI for the dialer. Can anyone tell me whats the process name I should set under App Settings? "Phone" does not work.
Thanks!
UPDATE:
I realised the dialer is part of contacts. It's all good now.
Long time lurker here, love XDA and just actually got up and running with my new Note 4. The same thought went through my head with the stock Note 3... "Why the hell do they make a phone so large and just blow the icons up, it does me no good, I'm not a blind man..." So, naturally, one of my first steps after getting root was changing the DPI.
Like with the Note 3, I quickly realized that the Samsung Applications don't play nice with the custom DPI.
I realize this may be a completely stupid question, but my Google-fu has failed me so far. I've tried using Xposed to change the DPI (just on the Camera so far) back to defaults, but nothing seems to change the camera. Is there an alternate method to tell these applications to use the default DPI, are there modded version of these apps released yet, or is there a guide I could use to assist with modding these apps to make them friendly to DPI changes?
did you enable (tick) the (app settings) at module page of xposed? I am using note 4 too, and set default dpi = 480, and notice camera app is not support custom dpi, so i use app setting to assign it back, wish this can help.
Oh samsung, you still haven't made the camera app multi dpi, that's poor

did you reboot for take xposed take effect? and for the lock screen did you use app ? or default one?
if default one, use build prop set , lock screen will be apply too.
Disregard

App settings in xposed then change keyguard to 640 dpi click apply res to widgets.
Works, thanks
Hey thanks for this info, but I don't seem to be able to change dpi of dialer/phone with app settings (camera and lockscreen worked). Am I changing the wrong app? (changed com.sec.phone and com.android.phone back to default 640)
Anyone know how to change recent apps dpi back to normal?

Nevermind, I forgot it was to change contacts apk. Also, with the new DPI, minimizing apps by drawing in from the corner no longer works. It will show as if it is shrinking the app to pop-up window then it will vanish. However, the window is still active as I tried multiple apps and then it prevented me because it said there is already 5 popups active (which is the maximum). Thanks for any help in advance!

I am not a developer, but I like all the work developers done for Android phones. I also had the same problem. Camera problem has been solved using "App Setting" application thru Xposed framework. However, Dialer and Keyboard didn't work.
Then I finally download Google Keyboard , which is the best one to use instead of Samsung Stock Keyboard. So, I am looking for another alternative for Dialer. lets see, I will post here if find anything. Thanks!
Hello,
so i was wondering if there is any tweak to change the icon size (Home Screen / App Drawer) on Pure Nexus rom.
i know we can modify icon size with xposed, but i don't think i want to installed xposed on my pure nexus.

You can also use a custom launcher like Nova.
Custom launcher, or change your dpi. There's a simple way to do that by modifying your build.prop, but there's also a free app on the play store called texdroider that'll do it for you. Heads up though, lowering dpi will make everything smaller! Personally, I love that seeing as we have such a sharp, big screen. It allows a lot more to fit without scrolling. Just try different values until you find one you like!
