[Q] Gameboid Has anyone gotten this to work on the NC - Nook Color General

Hey all just wondering if anyone has gotten gameboid to work if so how and what settings?
It just goes to a blank screen for me

Works perfectly for me. Only settings I changed were to make the orientation to landscape and I changed the scaling to maintain aspect ratio.

[Q] LCD Density

Now that everyone has had time to find their favorite LCD Density, what do you guys have yours set at?
For me its 190
180 for me.
200 for me
ilsolito, when i have mine at 200 I feel like the notification bar is actually more blurry than at 190. I dont know if this is just something im making up in my mind as I dont have 2 tabs to compare side by side. Anyone else notice this?

No, you're right, it is quite blurry... But I like it that way!
200 for me. For some reason anything less causes my native camera app to force close >.<
180 for mine is perfect never really expirimented with any other.

180 here, and I just use Camera Advance for taking piccies, original camera doesn't FC at 180 for me, but the UI is all out of line and doesn't work right.
I actually prefer 160, but the notification bar goes a bit funky at 160.
I use 171. Lowest possible without the notification bar going weird.
Won't the preview at the bottom right not scale when using the camera? The dialer won't scale too right?

How to set LCD Density? I went in settings/display and found Black color density/white color density and i did not saw any numbers like yours e.g. 180, 200 etc...
Edit: never mind guys got the app.
Default, don't know how you can stand the blurry notification bar at anything less tbh. And launcher pro lets you add extra columns and types to fit more things on if needed..

Lcd density app to change density.
Camera works down to 182

I can't remember if I responded but I'm at 200
i no longer use it because once i set it at 200 and reboot i no longer can make phone calls and tab does not respond so then i have to force the phone to shut off and restart at the regular density
185. I wish the dialer and contacts didn't go wake tho

I notice no blur in my notification bar. Of course, that could be due to the huge mess of cracks sitting in the upper corner of my screen. Or lower if I were to use it in portrait mode..

Set which way is landscape?

Is there any way to set which way is landscape for apps that force landscape? I like to use headphones when I'm playing games on it. Games like GTA3 and bards tale force landscape so that the headphone jack is on the lower left, in just the perfect spot to be right in the way of my left hand.
It bugs me enough that I often wind up playing with no sound.

in the settings menu - Display - Rotation - pick the degrees of rotation that you want to allow.
This only partially works. I have all four rotation options enabled, but certain apps that force landscape, force 90 (Sketchbook is one). I know I had tried flipping it over on GTA3 once previously, and it didn't work, but I tried it this morning, and it worked. That was on AOKP, and this morning was CM9.
Sketchbook still forces 90 and won't work in 270.

[Q] Camera not going fullscreen?

Hello Guys,
I have the VS980 running XDABBEB VS98024A rom. Everything has been smooth for months until today. I brought up the camera from the main screen. The initial logo is centered but when the camera starts there is a black border around the right and bottom portion of the screen. I havent changed any of the DPI settings and I have reset the camera in the menu. I also have tried clearing the cache and deleting the data from application manager with no luck. My navigation buttons and status bar are present now and i dont remember them being there before. The pictures still come out the right size and the gallery operates full screen but just the camera itself isnt. I tried to take a screenshot of it but it just took pictures. Is there any clue as to what has happened? No new apps or downloads recently. A really frustrating and random event. I use my phones camera constantly. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you
If you have it in 13mp the aspect ratio is different and puts black borders on the camera.

Thanks for the reply. It was in the 10mp setting. Turns out my app setting module had updated without my knowledge and changed the UIs DPI making the camera smaller. I just didn't know. Changed the UI back to stock 480 and everything is fine. 4hrs of searching later lol

LCD Density change issues

Changed LCD Density to 540 using rom toolbox. Icon and text size looks perfect for everything except the dialer and the camera app. Dialer works fine its just off to the left a little. But the camera app is a different story. The viewfinder window is tiny and the on screen controls aren't lined up with where you actually touch the screen.
I edited build.prop to achieve this.
Anyone else changed LCD Density and had success?
Just returned my LG G4 today and rooted in before I left the store lol.

Using 560 would solve the issue

DPI setting?

Which DPI setting would be better? Samsung sets it to like 411dpi iirc, but for example http://dpi.lv/ shows it should be 522dpi for 6,3" screen with 2960x1440 resolution.
What's your opinion on this? Maybe I'm wrong?

There is no "best" setting. Just play around with it and see what you like. The higher the number the smaller the content on the screen. I have mine set to 420.
Man 522 is small. I do like the layout but keyboard is way too small for my giant thumbs.
455 is best for me

I use 500dpi, perfect for me. however it breaks the samung keyboard, install Gboard instead
I love small font.
since the original was 411, I adjusted to 512, and increased to 564 recently.
Loved it.
did anyone notice any obvious battery drain after increasing the dpi?
Mine is 185 dpi i lile it

Got mine set to 340. Still need glasses though. LoL

yes i noticed a battery drain,dont know if it is from it...thats how i got to this post
I use 512, I love having a big screen real state, and yes the native keyboard is useless at this dpi, but I use A.I type since my S3, so I have no problems with it
PHP:
I am using 602, because it allows browsers like Chrome or Firefix to have tabs at the top of the browser like it would be on a laptop, which is nice if you like more of a traditional browsing experience. and when rotating the device orientation into landscape the navbar will also rotate with the display instead of staying at the bottom of the device.
Screenshot attached
Now using 2160x4440 and 560dpi .
wm size 2160x4440
wm density 560
478 and 6x6 home screen settings - if I go above I will brake the home screen settings
