I like to have my display and font size as small and sharp as possible. However after setting display size to small on latest Nougat update on my Droid turbo 2, the 2 buttons on the bottom of the camera app no longer work and it just takes a picture every time no matter where I click. Its the rotate button for Front/Back camera swap and Record/Picture swap button. Is there anyway to fix this? For now I am using a 3rd party camera app.
Also on a side note there is no current way to unlock the bootloader on these phones? I would like to use TWRP and maybe a custom rom.

A while ago I dropped my G2, and now the screen is broken
An edge of 1 cm on the right side of the screen isn't working, the rest of the screen is fine.
I was wondering if there is a way to make the screen smaller so it fits in the part of the screen that works.
I have already tried the resolution changer app, but if I change the horizontal resolution, this app centers the screen, but I want it to align left. (Because only the right side is broken...)
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
On stock roms simply swipe on the nav bar

As Siggey said, LG has a function called Miniview which shrinks the screen. You just have to swipe the navbar.

Thanks for the replies guys! I will try this asap
I used AICP and CM14.1, and had installed moto camera on both. The interface works glitchy, as in I had to touch a bit away from the buttons to actually trigger them, or some things just don't respond to touch, etc.
On AICP, the moto camera UI wouldn't work at all. Touching anywhere on the screen, even on a UI element would take a picture as if I touched any empty spot on the screen. I couldn't toggle front cam or toggle other options.
On CM14.1, I can toggle some options, but for many things I have to touch a bit away from the buttons. And I can't turn off shutter sound either.
I'm on CM as I type this.
I was on AICP till 2 days ago .

you have to fix the DPI value of the screen.

Didn't expect this would be a problem. But makes sense.
I've reduced the display size to small.
I would however really want it to stay that way. Anything I can do to the app to fix this?
It nothing works, I'm okay with not using moto camera.

xposed in MM has a module called App Settings where we could set per-app dpi values. unfortunately, xposed is not yet available in Nougat.
Since most of today's phones have a notch, why not this one too?
Imo, it would look better using the secondary display as a part of the main display.
Only the notification icons would need to be shifted a little more to the right.
Like, is it even possible to disable the hardware keys, enable a navbar and on the navbar modify HTC's immersive mode button to not only hide the navbar, but the secondary screen too?
And, like on any other HTC, when you's swipe up from the bottom of the screen it would show the navbar again, but this time also the secondary screen.

That's dope. I guess it just needs a little bit more tinkering to show stuff properly the right way up.
I find it ridiculous that such a feature does not exist on the default Camera App on OnPlus 6T. What bothers me the most is that there I can't change the format to 16:9 and the resolution to something that eats less MBs. Only have 4:3 and 18:9 available and there's no way to change the resolution either.
Any android phone maker out there let's you change the photo resolution and format. It kind of defeats the purpose of having and Android phone (which supposedly offers you greater flexibility than an Apple device).
Then there are tens of Android apps available that also allow you to do that. The only thing is that even if you set the 3rd party app to be your default Camera app it won't work fromt he Home Screen. By that I mean if I would be to double press the home button, I would like my 3rd party camera app to open and not the OnePlus camera app, which does not have the options that I want.

Ya that is pretty stupid. Lots of people are using gcam tho and I guess this is why
Resolution is the very first thing I change
Thanks for your post ... I actually grabbed the latest Google Camera apk and installed it as my default app.
I actually gave up on using the Google Camera App because it was crashing, freezing or not even taking the pictures most of the time.
I ended up using the regular OnePlus camera app, capturing photos in the wide 18x9 format and enhancing / croping them in Google Photos to 16x9.
When you said you were double tapping the home button to bring up the camera, did you mean the power button? You can choose the default camera to use for the system, and it'll use that camera app when you hit the power button twice.
Nope ... it will not bring the Default camera app when the screen lock is on, it will bring the OnePlus camera app.
Another known defect on all OnePlus devices.
Hey guys,
I flashed a Note 4 ROM onto my Note Edge, in order to make good use of the entire screen. (So that the curved part could also show content.)
Everything works flawlessly, except for the camera interface. As you know, the screen resolution of Note 4 is 1440x2560 while Note Edge 1600x2560. As is the normal case on the stock Note Edge ROM, the camera interface which is 16:9, should have shown on the left 1440x2560 area of the screen, alongside a dark bar on the right 160x2560.
But now, just the opposite, the interface shows on the right and dark bar on the left. However, the real problem is that the touch area doesn't correspond to the display area. That is to say, the touch area is on the left side while interface on the right. When I touch the shutter button on the screen, it has no response, I have to touch 160px left, and when i touch to focus, it actually focus on a spot on the right.
I tried several means but none worked:
1. I extracted and copied the SamsungCamera3 folder using a root explorer from the stock Edge Rom to /system/priv-app/, granted right permissions to it and to all files in it, restarted the phone, but then camera Fc and I had to restore the folder back.
2. The 'adb shell wm overscan' way is not an option either, because it would affect all other normal apps. Is there a way to change the display area only for a specific app instead of whole?
3. Tried the Xposed Module 'App Settings' to change the display resolution for the camera app, no effect.
I know some of you guys have experience of developing tweaked TW ROMs compatible both with Note 4 and Note Edge or porting a TW ROM from one totally different device model to another, so how did you solve this kind of problem? How do I make the camera interface display on the left?
Thanx in advance.
You should just replace a copy of the camera app from note edge room using xplore in rooted mode, perhaps Mickey room or Batman room.

Hi, Alboooz, thanks for your reply. Like I've mentioned, I tried this method, but camera FC. I have no idea why.
photo added to describe the issue
Show me the normal functioning of it.
Hey don't know the solution to your query but would you like to show us how you use the entire screen to show content. That must be looking cool....

Here you have Note edge Samsung camera multi dpi, you shall copy this camera app named as is in the same folder name
in here; root/system/priv-app/SamsungCamera3/SamsungCamera3.apk and set the permissions correct, go to system application settings and clean data and cache, you start the phone i recovery mode and delete cashes and reboot your phone, it should work.
This camera file must be (SamsungCamera3.apk) name.
