I installed this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.birdapi.android.dpipro&hl=da
It said that my density is 420(? cant remember precise) but i changed it anyway to 240 as my friend (with a note 2) changed it to that.
I pressed save to reboot. but it wont start anymore.
Whan can i do?
I am rooted and have touch recovery.
Maybe i could mount /system from recovery and change it manually. What do you recommend changing it to.
EDIT: Okay, i've tried my own suggestion. Went to TWRP and mounted /system. pulled build.prop and changed the density to 380. Pushed it in again and restarted. That didnt help.
Now i've downloaded the poweruser rom, took the build.prop and pushed it into the device. That still didn't fix it.
EDIT2: I noticed a build.prop.bak which gotta be my original build.prop that lcd density modder made. i removed my build.prop and renamed build.prop.bak to build.prop.
Restarted. but it still doesn't work !? Even deleted cache and dalvik cache. doesnt work??
stock dpi is 480 btw

You can try flashing system.img from factory Rom though fastboot or toolkit.
I think it will get back everything in order.

hi...thanks for your reply but i have found the problem.
i have uninstalled the: NFC Service...that was the problem...ti have unbricked the phone,uninstalled again the stuff that i didn't wanted and problem came back,but this time i had a backup xD.so i thought to uninstall the programs with more calm.so then happened again when i have uninstalled 3 or 4 programs...ok,so let's do it one by one...and i found it...NFS Service... a think that i have never used made me crazy loool...
and that's it...the problem wasn't the font

Hi
I recently tried to install a theme from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/themes-apps/theme-systemui-themes-n910u-5-0-1-t3097608
for my note 4 910F.
I did all the steps (Copyd the apk, changed permissions to 644 than overwrote the original system ui apk, i made a backup of it, also have titanium backup)
after the install my phone now comes up with the msg Unfortunately systemui has stopped, every like 5 seconds.
i tried titaniums restore, wiping the cache from twrp and than a factory reset from twrp, but to no avail i fear i have broken my device any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Bear in mind that i rooted the phone yesterday so im new to this.
Thank you
Download the stock ROM from sammobile website and flash it using ODIN tool.
For flashing instruction, check YouTube or google.

Thank you very much it worked perfectly.. even upgraded to 5.1.1
I have a few questions tho as im new to this: I messed around with it more before flashing the stock ROM and heres what i did. Managed to push the original systemUI.apk on the modified one, that resulted in my top statusbar dissapearing, but there were no more popups of systemui crashing. However i notice that the systemUI.apk is now not installed at all... atleast the phone does not recognizes it as already on the device So next i manually installed the systemUI apk, the original one. It went trough with the install but then the phone completely broke and any animation froze it. After that i did what u suggested.
So my questions are: What did i wrong when installing the custom theme ?
Why didn't pushing the original back/installing the original work ?
Why didn't i loose any of my apps photos contact details after installing the new Firmware ? (still have everything... not complaining its just weird how a new op system install didn't wipe my data)
Thank you so much again for Your great suggestion.

I first thought it was due to the fact that I changed my dpi. I put it back go 560 and is still broken. And help

It is only swift related? Try erasing app's cache...
If you hold the phone at arm's length do the icons appear smaller?

I was having a little fun at your expense. Sorry about that. Consider it in honor of Ken M, the master troll.
More seriously...any chance any of the Accessibility settings have changed? When did this first show up?

Here it seems alright to me. If you want to make everything look smaller on your phone you could try changing DPI; You'll need ROOT for that.

The icons next to chainfire's name is way to big
Did you change your screen size in terminal?
Otherwise dirty flash a stock rom over your current rom. And flash SuperSU and Xposed (if you need it)
Would solve the issue.

Just download latest version for your variant.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...-stock-x1572-1575-5-1-1-lph23-116-18-t3229355
I recommend deodex version over the odexed.
Then boot into recovery.
Flash the stock rom zip. Flash SuperSU update package + Xposed if you want.
Wipe cache/dalvik cache.
Then you should be almost stock like. If you want to change DPI safely next time. Use this app.

I have uploaded stock Samsung keyboard (Marshmallow) here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634741640 . Let me know if you can install it as normal.
If you cant and you are not rooted, let me know.

Go to system/app/app/SamsungIMEv3_SYSTEMUID_XT9/ and remove the .apk. Then put the apk you have downloaded in that folder and set correct permissions ( take a look at other apk permission for example). Then go to recovery, wipe cache & dalvik cache and then reboot.
Let me know if you still have problems.

Yeah it could be.
I have made a flashable zip containing the whole folder.
Here it is: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120703393 .
Go to TWRP, mount /system and then flash this zip. Then wipe cache & dalvik-cache and reboot.
I made the flashable zip quick, hopefully you wont have issues lol.

you saved me from using stupid Google keyboard, thank you very much! thank you for your effort i really appreciate that
Thank you once again really nice zip, everything went trough smoothly!
Here is the ss, all working fine after going trough every feature
Please, can U answer me: I do not have phone with me right now, cuz it is friends phone, i did installed above Stock Nougat 7.1.1 Rom which name is Odyssey Nougat Rom on J5 2016 FN. Now, my friend like that Rom but he doesn't like Samsung Keyboard port from N8... He need keyboard like it was on Stock Rom or one which looks like Xperia Phonepad keyboard. I tried everything, installed Xperia apk keyboard, but nothing works. Keyboard shows on System/Language and Keyboard settings but can not be activated.... That is shorter story Any help would be really appreciated. Thank U very much. Just in case, ill post this post on some other treads or/and on separate thread as well.
I finally downloaded the .apk for my Samsung J5 2016 (later a whole folder, because I realised that it was removed; TWPR closes ) but I can't install it Paidverts.apk that I've installed the same way (not from Play store) works...
What (else) can I do? Thanks for your help.
