Good.
I've tried one and work like charm (I tried 130 and 135 as well)
problem is ROM manager scale incorrectly even with 'compatibility mode' turned off
I already tried to search the forum but have no luck
is there a way how to overcome this?
thx

Yes, I did it several times but the problem still persist
edit:
I think this behaviour are not consistent. sometimes when I reboot it, it's back to normal, but when I reboot it again, It went wrong again
weird
EDIT:
I can confirm now that after killing 'whole' task using task manager (or similar app), the problem is (always) gone. still don't know the culprit though.
Excellent work here my friend. Cheers.
Great app... I'm running at 130.
May I know what is the default density of our Legend? Tried to Google before I flashed this but couldn't find any info...
Edit: I tried LCDDensity for root from market and it told me the default is 160. Change to 140 and it looks great
Maybe I'm totally noob, but what's the point of setting a LOWER LCD density if the default is 160?
Correct me if I'm wrong but the higher the density, more things can be added to the screen and it "seems" bigger.
I'll try also to see the difference
Later Edit: OK, I've checked now. Tried with 130 and a lot more info seems to fit on screen. I have some questions/issues though.
1. What 110, 120...130...160 means? For sure not DPI as was my initial understanding. Usually, the higher the DPI setting, more screen space is available. And in this case I got better screen with a lower number. Could be the value of the setting then? And lowering it it'll give you in fact a higher DPI setting? Don't miss understood me, I just want to understand some of the things not playing with them like a robot.
2. Some widgets are scaled incorrectly (Sense Analog Small Black is one of them for ex). Any way to overcome this or is by widget design and I should find a better one?
Found a fix for 2...set the columns in ADW at 5 instead of 4. Now the widget is drawn correctly and have an extra space remaining

When your adding a widget you'll have the option to set the size, set the width to 5 and you're widgets you want full width can be. I had to do this with my clock/weather widget.
I set it to 140 and it looks awesome! To bad that it shrinks the keyboard too..
it doesn't work for me on BlaYo rom ... does absolutely nothing ... any ideas?

Yes but it is very few buttons and only in some particular apps. The text can be read but it is very unclear. You can go in the Gmail app and the show pictures button for example has this issue
Hi ComputerFreak. I have just installed Black Perfection 2.1 on my Elelinux 1.9 ROM and I really like the looks of it. However, all texts are in black... even the ones at the top of the screen (notifications, time, etc.). It is different from the screenshots you show. Please tell me how to change the font colours to white! Maybe a tiny patch will work??
Thanks in advance!
Really appreciate your hard work!

I tried to change all of them to #ffffffff (white) but they don't seem to take effect. Do I have to reboot or something?

Edit: Never mind. I'm downloading it from zShare now.
Hey thanks for the CMTheme.zip file. I rebooted my phone and now everything looks perfect!
But now I have another problem... I installed the special theme HTC_IME mod keyboard and it works great. However, every single time I reboot it is gone and I have to reinstall from the .apk file..
I'm not sure if it's because of the CMTheme.zip file or the Black Perfection Theme itself. Maybe they cause to keyboard to revert to its original?
Sorry I have to trouble you again..!
Heyy Guys, I stumbled upon this rom, and someone claims that it works for Milestone, if you read further on.
Please confirm - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831144
Confirmed working on desire hd .25 rom. Very nice rom.
Download file, and simply install the dell launcher first, then install other widgets.
Yes, it works well. It actually works without changing the LCD Density setting as well, so you won't have to squint like mad.
That said, there's no advantage to using Dell's work here other than using their heavyweight widgets.
PS. This is not a rom, but a set of APKs.

Kay, thanks I'll post a screenshot soon but the essential problem is that it looks too small I guess. Basically, the bottom app drawer and the navigation buttons beside them take too much room. I guess it isnt optimized for our milestones Can someone confirm if there is another way to make the landscape look bigger and better?
Hey!
Can somebody make a theme for MIUI status bar like iPhones one (screenshot) ?
The point is to make it a little bit thinner than normal MIUI.
Note: I want it for MIUI Gingerbread 'cause it's easier than MIUI v4, but if you want it for MIUI v4 ...
Thanks!!
Every time i look at a picture of an iphone i want one so badly
Me too, but my phone looks now like an iPhone with MIUI + Ultimate iPhone theme.
Now I'm tryin to make it perfect
ugh. just go buy one.
If you pay for it then okay!
In Europe it's expensive my dear friend!
Try this psd, mate, not so hard but it need a lot of time with these resource you can rebuild the iphone theme for miui for best result

Don't even think that's possible unless you use a lower DPI.

i guess you can do it by editing systemui.apk's layout xml files manually
your gonna mess up alot of things by editing status bar to be thinner.
If you do it, the time will have to be changed to be smaller and fit, then it will have to be modded again so miui can change where it's location is. All this but for pretty much every notification you'll ever get. all the icons are going to have to be smaller than before, and it may not even fit on the status bar.
Just use a lower dpi, im on 200 and it looks really good.
Changing DPI, the icons remain at the same dimension and the labels are smaller and they come on the icons..

The battery and signal are a cluster. I'm not to fimiliar with MIUI but I'm guessing it follows the same principle. Only the battery text can be moved to the right on its own. I may be wrong but that's how it was when I was running CM7.

Hi guys,
It looks absolutely awesome!!!!
Is it still a work in progress? or is it finished and the full thing is in a different thread?
Cheers guys
you could use custom status bar + in the play store . I use it all the time
Any ideas? Looking around dont see much on it.
What do you mean, an issue with it ? Your question is pretty vague and we can't do too much to help you without more details.
Stock CM9 install sets your DPI at 160. You can change this at any time by modifying your build.prop and changing the setting for lcd.density to something else - 120 is another common one to use. It's all a matter of personal taste. I have come to like the 160 - it isn't TOO big, but it's big enough, and things work quite well.

Changing the LCD Density requires a reboot. Please share the app that does this, as I have yet to find one.
One solution is to keep the LCD at 160, but using GO Launcher HD. You can set the icons to be smaller, and it overall looks much nicer then 120, which I find is wayyy to small.
There's a patch that you can flash available in the Alpha2 thread on Rootzwiki. As for an app, I haven't found one that just changes your lcd.density of your build.prop, but it is doable relatively easily.
I use an App from Google Play called 'DPI Changer'.
I know there are some ICS (Phone) Roms that have PAD (Per App Density) feature and you can configure how you want it, but it's something built in to the Rom. Changing the dpi now does require a reboot.

LCD Density Modder is the best app for changing the DPI of your Touchpad.
My current DPI is set to 155 its the best density I've used yet
I liked native 132 quite a lot but anything else than 160 or 120 breaks Market unfortunately.
And I'm too lazy to patch it so I'm on 160.
Things are quite big but it's okay...

LCD Density Modder Pro allows you to download a patched Play Store apk and also a modded Google Services Framework apk to solve doing compatibility issues ... no othet app offers that that I know of

Another option for those who stay at 160 dpi is the change the font size to small in the display settings. It makes the display much better. I prefer to run at 120 with the font set to huge which is another option that works pretty well.

Back with in S8+ days there were 3 apks floating around that allowed you to change the height of the navigation bar in order to increase screen real estate. I quite liked it as did a lot of other people I assume because you can find links to plenty of websites talking about it. However I can't find any talk about it for this phone.
Does anyone know of anything like this for the Note 8?
Still on the s8+ but considering getting a note 8 soon. Just out of curiosity, have you tried installing the same apk?
You can change the Minimum DPI setting in DEV settings to make it look higher res. I have mine set to 475 and it has a lot more space. You can then change the font size to be one mark below normal and it really helps.

Yep I had changed that. on both the S8+ and Note 8. That's good, but the nav bar still bugs me on this phone. Everytime I look at it, I notice it's too big lol
Hmm. I wonder if the guy who created the old apk uses an S8 and hasn't bothered to make one for the note 8. I'd imagine it is quite simple. Wonder if you could make the request?
Edit: I made a request to tigerhoods, who I believe authored the apk for the s8.
Here is the response I got:
it works when packed in a sammy theme if that makes sense..
u have to decompile a Samsung theme then add the nav values to the common.apk then recompile theme for it to take effect now

Looking further into how to do this, but I haven't yet been able to get my hands on the apk for the theme I've been using. But, from what I gather, you can't just install an apk to change the Navbar height with the note 8. You have to specifically edit the apk for whatever theme you're using.

Nothing new here?
If you mean something like that..... here are some overlay mods they are working without root. The 1 i have linked is to minimize the height a bit more then half.
