I'm running ShubCraft 1.5 and trying to find a way of changing the wallpaper in the default lockscreen. I have tried LockBot but it was very buggy, half the time didn't stop the default lock screen from appearing (meaning I had two lock screens) and seemed to effect battery life, not to mention removing my Handcent SMS notifications. It was basically unusable.
I have searched to no avail, does anyone know how to change the lockscreen wallpaper without effecting the default homesceeen one?
Cheers.
I know when I was playing with the cyanogen no them version there was two options for changing main and lock wallpaper. That may have something to do with Adw launcher and I take that off right away. so have a looksy at or around those settings.
Edit apparently when the phone locks what you're actually seen is you home wallpaper and thats why its the same.
Do these zips exist anywhere? (I can't find them)
Have changed S5 DPI to 400, but it ruins the look of camera, lockscreen and dialer apps.
I use ART so can't change those apps back to 480 with xposed. I also noticed that the X-note rom has these apps working with lower dpi's, are these zips available to flash anywhere?
Thanks
So I changed my dpi to 480 to get more use out of the screen. However a couple apps (namely phone and camera) Don't like this setting and don't take up the full screen. Any ideas how to set per app dpi settings? I've tried installing xposed framework with the app settings module but it seems to have no effect.
Sorry for a noob question.
I am using rooted 4.4.2 kk stock on i9500. Searched everywhere but havent yet found the solution. How to
Increase the icons size in app drawer. I want to keep the stock launcher ie touchwiz.
I like big icons as in ios
Edit the LCD density setting in build.prop.
Thanks for replying bro... Can you please explain a lil bit..! If it can happen through
Editing building.prop then i reckon its a easy mod. :good:
Sure. In build.prop is a setting labeled "ro.sf.lcd.density". The default setting is 480dpi. Change the DPI setting with a text editor and reboot to make everything on the screen larger or smaller. If you don't want everything to change size when you change the DPI, but do want to make the icons larger, you'll need to use a replacement launcher like Nova or an app like Giganticon.
Thanks for quick reply mate.
Well tried it and experimented with value 300. After reboot
Touchwiz stopped and stuck on error loop. Is there any range limitation
Coze subsequently systemui stopped working too.
You likely did hit a limit. On my old device, which had a stock density of 160, it was possible to go as low as 120 without an issue, and could easily do 240. I personally haven't attempted to change the DPI on the S4 because the icons are plenty large enough as it is.
My personal recommendation is to not bother using the Touchwiz launcher and install Nova instead, rather than playing with DPI settings. Because as I mentioned previously, everything changes size when you change the density. It's not just the icons that will change size, but the text as well.
Indeed..so its not a exact solution but a workaround. I better
Opt for another launcher than editing this then. Thanks mate
Your tip added a little more to my knowledge base.
Hey guys, i know that global DPI can be changer from build.prop or in the developer option settings. I did that and so far everything is working fine( on Sac23 V3 oreo based S9+ port) but the Gboard is scaling to a kind of tablet mode and even the biggest setting is ⅔ of the biggest keyboard on smaller DPI scale (on 410 to 441 its great but if i change it to 450 and up the keyboard gets smaller).
In the past on previous phones i have used Xposed with the App Manager(sorry if name isn't correct) to change the DPI of different apps. I have also teied editing the xml file from the gboard apk so the biggest setting would be even bigger. With these options come flaws:
1. With Xposed Framework i can't have safetynet which is needed for Snapchat and Netflix and bunch of other apps to work.
2. If i change the XML after every update from playstore i have to make changes again.
Is there any other possible way ( maybe Magisk Module) that does DPI changing per app?
