DPI change by adb breaking icons and some elements in apps like snapchat.. ex. the size of the stickers and text is reduced and after sending photo moves to left corner

I changed my lcd density to 190. Some programs adjust to it just fine, other programs look like they are squeezed to one side. Is there anyway to make those other programs "adjust" their resolution to fill up the screen properly instead of being crammed up in a corner?
(The following applies only to the original TouchWiz launcher, modified to enable scrolling wallpaper.)
I've noticed this lately - TouchWiz will quite frequently ignore your specific scaling settings in whatever wallpaper app you're using and crop out parts of the left and right sides of the wallpaper so that you don't get to see everything in full. It even does this with its own default wallpapers! Here's the proof:
(Original wallpaper (pic reduced to half its original size for easier viewing).)
(How the leftmost and rightmost sides look on the default launcher, default 5-home-screen setup, using Samsung's own wallpaper picker.)
In case you're wondering, the amount of home screens has nothing to do with it. All adding more does (and from this 5-screen default you can only add 2 more anyway) is slow the scrolling rate down in order to display just as 'much' of the wallpaper as before.
Furthermore, I've seen it screw up the scaling in similar ways with programs like QuickPic, ES File Explorer, Wallpaper Wizardrii and what have you.
The only workaround so far that I've found to getting it to display the whole wallpaper without leaving bits off of the edges is by resizing the wallpaper's width to 1680 pixels (so for instance, 1680x1920) and using the "Image 2 Wallpaper" app from Google Play, telling it to not resize the wallpaper.
I'm hoping this is something that can be rectified by modifying the SecLauncher APK, or the SecWallpaper APK, or whatever. An alternative launcher shouldn't be the only solution really!
I recently changed LCD Density in build.prop from standard 480 to a lower value.
After doing this, the top edge of the screen is shaded / blurred black when i have a transparent notification bar.
Alarmed, i restored a cwm backup but the problem still exists.
Anyone have any ideas ?? I'm slightly worried i might have damaged the screen.
Thank you
I dropped my phone. Now, one strip of the screen (where the address bar in Chrome is) is no longer responsive to my touch.
I've come up with a workaround: using Nomone resolution changer to lower the screen height to avoid the problematic screen parts.
This is not ideal because the app removes screen size from both the top and the bottom, so I waste valuable screen real estate. Is there any app or any way I can adjust the screen height from only the top and not the bottom? Alternatively, feel free to suggest other workarounds

You can change system DPI in build.prop.
I searched so here's my question.
If i chane text size to small it changes it alone in settings and some other apps
Yet in Gmail, chrome the text size is still the normal size and annoyingly large
How do i change the text size for all apps?
