[MOD/TRICK]Resolution Hack - GT540 Optimus Android Development

Hi here is my latest mod i have managed to change the the resolution from the default 160 to 135 which give the effect of the screen being bigger
just replace the build.prop file with the one in the attachments set the permissions and reboot the phone
set perrmissions to
xxo
xoo
xoo
so it will look like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

no it wont sorry games look the same to me ;(

What's that theme?

Makes everthing smaller, but most apps just show thick black bars around the screen, so its pretty useless

unfortunatelly it only scales down all icons fonts menus... but also breakes everything for example when u r pressing any icon or menu some stripes keeps showning on... its not exact mod but rather a trick

mine doesn't mines is in full screen all the time no black boxes

also not when using apps?
ps. used the lcd density from market just to try because as sayed resultat should be the same?

what android have done is made the density so that on say a galaxy s an app icon is the same display size as on our screens so all fingertip sizes.
making a higher density is not right as instead of everything being the same size they are smaller.

It sounds a bit stupid, but can someone post the orginal build.prop

im posting the orginal one now

Small word of warning: I applied this and I use ADWLauncher EX. On rebooting ADW was stuck in an endless loop of Force Close...
Managed to restore my original build.prop using adb shell.
Can anyone else confirm this problem?

Original post:
I am attaching a modified version of Samsungs TouchWiz launcher.
Thank rolle3k for making this work on non-Samsung phones.
I have changed the layout of the appdrawer to make all rows fit on the screen. Right now you can't see the application names, but I will look to fix that and change the number of rows to show or something like that.
If you want screenshots... let anyone do them, I'm too tired right now and have to get some sleep.
Hope you like it, have fun!
Works great! Is it possible to change the fade in/out speed when opening the app launcher? Thanks for your good work!

Hmm.. Seems that I can't find the XDA app in that launcher, maybe theres one hidden row under or something. Maybe you can use the text under apps from it though?

As I told you, it draws wrong.
The line that is missing is right under the "sticky" bar on the bottom where the drawer button is also in. But I'll try to use that as a base.

You're theme is bomb as are the icons. I would love to get your icons into widgetsoid. Is this possible? If you could make an app with just those icons for widgetsoid I would buy it. As of now there is only one alternative icon pack.
Edit: Well I guess only the Bluetooth is usable for my widgetsoid configuration. Thought there was a wifi too. Either way I can make it work!
Keep up your awesome work! Think I had a DX theme or two of yours too. Thanks

I have Circle Launcher Pro but i'm pretty noob with this, how do you add the icon package into Circle Launcher? Thanks for any help!
Download the zip and place that folder on your sdcard
Now you should be able to see them in gallery
When you add cl widget to homescreen you will need to set the launcher icon..
Then Select custom icon and locate in gallery

This theme is a port of the original MattedBlues theme made by jabbawalkee.
Big credit goes to Thnikk (for the CM7 port and the themed apps) and shoman94 (for the Continuum port and most the themed apk). Lots of pngs are from ZeubugTheme made by Zeubug. Almost all the credit goes to these guys. I justed mixed what I prefer from each theme above. Added and modified things to my liking. So hit their Thanks buttons way before mine. They well deserves it!
Thanks to dizx who made the Swype theme based on ryude's work.
Special thanks to watsaa
This theme would not exist without his help. He's the one who taught me almost everything I know about theming and he makes an incredible job with his rom. Give it a try. He doesn't get the credit he deserves.
All the infos and download links are moved to ApeX website!!

I don't know if it works with CWM3 since I don't use it. But for the screen on animation, I just forgot to add it back after toying with framework files. I re-uploaded the zip a few times after releasing the theme because I fixed couple of things.
It'll be fixed in the next release. Which will probably be tomorrow.

Screen ON animation won't work for now since it's not compatible with ApeX's framework. (I previously used another fw).
Me and (mostly) watsaa are working on it. I hope I'll be able to add it to the theme soon.

Sorry to be a pest, but do you have other icons besides phone, text, web and twitter? Preferably, I just need a "mail" one and a "talk" one (less important because I can just use "text") because I use those in my dock. If not it's cool and thanks anyways. Even the name of the icon set would be a good start and I could just Google em myself.
Thanks.

LCD Density

The default density of 480 is something I find to be too high, the huge big screen can use a little more content. Setting it to 400 makes it quite nice.
