Hi, I ran into a strange problem while doing some modifications to my phone earlier today. While trying to address another minor problem that my phone was having, I decided to try to reinstall my xposed framework to see if I could fix the problem. However, after flashing the uninstall zip file using TWRP, when my phone booted back up, everything on my screen had become... smaller. Not just my icons, but the size of the the notification bar and things like the size of my system's text. I immediately went into and searched through all of the settings that I could find, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary (e.g. it said my font was already at 100% and condensed mode was off, and no luck either in my nova launcher settings). I re-flashed the xposed framework to see if it would fix the problem, but it remained even after reinstalling. It's honestly a minor issue, but I'm tearing my hair out because of it x(. I'm hoping that there's a solution that's right in front of me but I just can't seem to find ;A;
I'm using a Galaxy S7 Edge (international ver, so G935F) on Android 6.0.1 and the xposed framework that I'm running is v85.1 sdk23 arm64 by wanam.
Here's a comparison of how my screen looked before and after all this happened:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I think the problem is your DPI.
Navigate to settings>display>display scaling.
If your selected option is condensed, set it back to standard and reboot your phone.
I don't know how flashing the xposed framework changed it, but that's beyond me.
Good luck.

Thanks! It was not set to condensed, but after switching it to condensed and then back again it seems to have fixed the problem

Must have been displayed incorrectly. Glad you fixed your problem, though!
Good luck on your android endeavours!

Hi Guys,
Just posting this here so you don't have to sort through the 38 page thread to find it
DISCLAIMER: This is not a ROM or Kernel update, simply a theme to make it LOOK like it
http://www.apksmash.com/x5/GB.zip
To install just boot in to recovery and choose install zip from SD card and navigate to the folder. Install and enjoy
WARNING!
Currently the menu items are black text on black backgrounds but the clock is back in this version (as opposed to earlier versions)
I recommend doing a backup prior to installing this theme.
Would be nice with a few screenshots here. Any possibility of you making some and posting them?

Applied the theme to my AU Roadhound phone. Some word appear black on a black background like "USB Debugging Enabled" when you plug it in to the computer or when you get a new message you won't see the text in the bar. Other than that, looks great.
Home Screen Pic:

See what I mean, I just got a message but:
Some places just look a little odd:
excuse me，which rom is this theme based on？
there are chinese unicom version，Australia version，hongkong version ，Malaysia version，overseas version.
i only heard about the Australia version from u，but haven‘t seen any download link before
I believe this is for b136 (Malaysia Maxis)
Sorry for asking, but I booted into recovery and tried to install update.zip. It finds the file and tries to verify it but fails at that stage. Have I misunderstood something?
Thanks for your theme，I have already transplanted it to Unicom Rom。but I can't deal with the problem you have mentioned.But I have searched the forum。I think this will be help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9719727
nice,thank u
Think this will help with the white text:

The framework is a bit of a mess and needs to be cleaned up to be compatible with apktool, otherwise you can't change the text colour.
I did a bit of experimentation a few weeks ago but I think whenever I changed the text colour it would boot but pretty much every app would fc (couldn't even see if the changes worked) and I ended up giving up. I was able to apply some mods using the uot kitchen though which was pretty cool.
Anyone that is interested it doesn't require a programmer to do this stuff, if you're interested in themes do a bit of reading and you might be surprised what you can do.

Hey all,
I'm sorry if this is a rehash of somebody else's problem, but I did some searching and couldn't find anything that seemed applicable to my situation.
Running Nexus S with cyanogenmod 7.1.0.1, downloaded from http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=crespo
I am also running the latest ClockworkMod Recovery, having just updated it today. I updated via the internal update function on ROM manager.
Everything is working find, except that no matter what I do, boot animations don't run, and I get a black screen instead. The only time I didn't have a black screen was the first bootup after installing cyanogenmod update from sdcard via clockwork. This showed the default bootanimation. I then attempted to install the Speedo II animation from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053250
Immediately after, I only got a black screen on bootup. I tried flashing the bluehallway animation (also from same gallery). I then tried using SDK to push both animations to the phone at /system/media. Neither worked. I also tried to use ES file manager to swap out the bootanimation files in /system/media/ manually. Neither worked.
I then re installed CyanogenMod and repeated the steps listed above. Same result.
As far as I can tell, I have been undergoing the same procedure as when I changed my bootanimation to red rage (don't remember where I got it) On a previous version of CyanogenMod.
I have no idea what the problem is. Please help!
Sounds like it wasn't compressed properly
choose STORE in compress method when zipping back your animation sounds like they chose normal compression and this causes the desc and bootanimation not to work and all you get is blakcscreen
anyways try flashing mine
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1471708
Welp, that works perfectly. Thanks a ton! So could you explain the whole compression thing you talked about?
when you compress the boot animation back up it will be on normal compression by default you don't want this. You have to select store

if you're installing them in /system/media/ make sure to not have any bootanimation.zip in /data/local/ because that's where the system look up first
Interesting behavior lately, on my sg5. There are times (more and more often, recently) when neither Google's camera app, nor camera zoom fx show anything on the screen, as if there was no visibility through the actual camera hardware. Rebooting the phone brings back functionality, but only for a while (a few hours), after which the strange no image comes back.
I have also experienced strange "disappearances" of pictures I just took, which show up in a gallery app (the default, or quick pick), but which are nowhere to be found after closing the camera app.
Has anybody seen anything similar? I would really hate to go back to resetting to defaults - had rooted and xposed customized this phone to my liking. And - no - this behavior is not associated with any recent xposed activity / configs...

Try booting to recovery and clearing the caches

Did that two ways: like you suggested, and - prior to that - via titanium...

I have similar on stock, without root.
When I open up default camera application, there is no picture, just blank screen and phone becomes very laggy. Screen looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But it happens just sometimes.
E.g. once per 3 days and soft reboot is the solution.
Don't know the root cause Mine is SM-G900FD with BOC1 firmware.
Tried a factory reset already, but didn't help. Didn't try safe mode yet, as it might be related to some application e.g. facebook, viber, etc. which has access to camera.
Happens to my also since Lollipop on SM-G900F, tried the new stock BOC7 and now is better but it still there, the error and the blank screen. I noticed it happens more often in the evening/night. I've tried everything, wipe cache, reset camera. Hope Samsung will release a fix, no problems whatsoever on KitKat,

I see, so that will be probably different issue. Mine started also with lollipop, there were no problems on kitkat.
So.. I decided it was time to try changing my resolution.
I know what I did on my LG G Flex (4.4.2)
But I heard some people had luck on 5.1.1
Bad idea right? Right.
So, nomone changer didn't work. Didn't really expect it to either.
Resolution changer (can find here on xda), didn't work. But some people say it does.. Oh well.
Was getting discouraged, but was determined.
Found another app (on play)
• UI Tuner (ROOT) by Bassel Bakr
IT WORKED!!! But it didn't!!
It works but it throws you into a reboot cycle... Dammit!
How do I fix this...
Restore from backup? Wipe/Reflash ROM?
Nope.
My G3 will do a complete boot, but after about 10seconds... REBOOT
Just enough time to see if uninstalling will restore back to original settings.
NOPE!!
Whatever resolution you change to PERSISTS even after a reboot, WITHOUT the app installed... And no auto reboot!!
So, I'm now on this ROM (EOS Revival) with 1080x1920 resolution on 5.1.1.
Awesome, but DPI is way out of whack at 560...
I go to display and change down to 400.. Reboot
No love.
In comes another app.
• Neo Density DPI Changer by polarbear software
It's the only one I found to work with 5.1.1 (because ro.sf.LCD_density build prop mod didn't/doesn't work)
So now I've been able to change to [email protected]
Just an FYI if anyone is interested.

Terminal emulator works fine to. Type
"su" then "wm size 1080x1920"
And density is "wm density xxx"
Obviously swap xxx for the density you want

Geniuses,
I've been trying to get Magisk Manager 23 running on my S8 and can't seem to figure out what's going wrong. I've installed the Oreo (8.0) stock ROMS with Odin and successfully rooted the phone using Magisk both with and without TWRP. Root works and even SafetyNet checks pass, but the Manager will not come up, it just stays stuck at the Home screen as if I have yet to install it. I should mention, any version of Magisk prior to 19 seems to work fine, but I need some of the plug-in features from 21+

I'm an idiot! =)
What happened? How did you resolve it?
There is no worse thing on the internet than people posting, "oops fixed it" without them telling how they did it!
For prosperity

Bottom line is it's working fine. topjohnwu's installation instructions are not clear if you haven't been keeping up with each release, but this is how it works now...see the little floating menu of icons on the bottom of the third screen I posted...thats how you get to everything I thought was missing.
