screen resolution wrong - Motorola Droid Bionic

Have a motorola bionic, stock rom and rooted. Have noticed that a few apps don't load for the correct resolution. landscape and portrait are the same, showing the smaller resolution. I have uploaded two screenshots from one app, but there are a few others that don't display correctly. I've searched the forums, no luck. any suggestions appreciated, thanks.

Its a bug with some custom roms I've noticed. Should do the same when sending pictures as mms. Only temp fix is to rotate with adobe Photoshop app.
assonance 5.2
This isn't just with custom roms, it also occurs with my stock 2.1 Rogers Captivate. It's mildly annoying but I haven't bothered looking into a way to fix it. Unless I misunderstood your use of the term 'custom rom'.
Yeah I had this issue on my stock captivate and I haven't tried it now that I'm running a custom romantic thou, all I ended up having to do is rotate it on facebook after I had uploaded it.

I thought the SGStools camera.apk fixed this. I'll test and post results.
Update: I just tested it with the above mentioned apk, and my photo viewing app correctly honored exif orientation.
Im sorry english is not my first language...did it work??

I just downloaded that and it seems to work well. One of the default settings disables it in landscape mode, which might be the problem you guys are having. Either deselect that option or try it in portrait mode to see if that works.
I'd still like to find something closer to what is described in the OP. It would be kind of useful to have it just turn on and off when I open and close my case.
Aite I got it to work upon closing sweet now if i can just find one that "aweken" my Xoom upon opening case....

I think you might be talking about Killswitch. It was developed by an xda dev. I tried to use it with my 7 inch tab, but had fcs. However he was very helpful. I haven't tried it with the Xoom, but I think I'll look it up.

I was able to install it yesterday from the link I posted. The apk is there under the market link and video. I decided against using it, but you can give it a try.

[Q] LCD Density

I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem. I changed the LCD density in build.prop using Root Explorer. Everything is working fine, however when I tried to download a couple of apps from the market that I had previously installed (then uninstalled) it said my device was not compatible. I changed the LCD density back and was able to download them fine.
After downloading the apps again I changed the LCD density back to 200, and even though it said my device was not compatible, the apps run perfectly.
I've seen a few other threads on this issue for different devices but nobody has come up with a fix. Are others on this device experiencing the same issues and does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks!
Yep, I first noticed it yesterday. "My Apps" in the Market didn't list everything I had downloaded, and I wasn't able to see a MOG update that I knew had been posted. I wish I'd known off the bat it was a density issue (I was running 200 at the time) instead of doing a factory reset, getting stuck in clockwork for a little while, and reflashing my rom...
This is a really noob question..i've been seeing all these posts about display density... What is the advantage of modifying this?

Gives it a more high definition look, and makes the gigantic items on this phone smaller.
I'm Revolting and Home-Less, how about you?
I lowered the density by 10 just to try and it really effed up the phone app so I restored it.

1200x800 app on GT-P1000

I installed a local news app which is optimised for resolution 1200x800. I was unable to download through Google play due to this but found the apk in a forum. It works sort of well except that the bottom of some articles are cut off. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to overcome this maybe some sort off app that stretches the articles ?
Edit
Got it working perfectly though I used an app called 'blade buddy' which actually had 2 settings which I could change the LCD density. I changed both to 150 and the Age app plus my keyboard works perfectly. I could see one of the density settings changed to 159 so that must be the the one I changed through the LCD resolution app. Thanks for your responses hope these posts help somebody else.
I am on Cyanogen 10 -Jellybean.

How do you get to camera settings - the other settings?

Was at a Verizon store yesterday played with the X, very nice device, one thing I couldn't locate/figure out, nor could the rep....
how do you change pic/video mp size before taking the pic/video?
Are all the pics taken in 10mp size (or a different default size), or can that be adjusted?
If so, where can Those settings be found?
The standard settings section had the basics, HDR, flash, Geo, tap to focus, slo mo, gesture etc. I just couldn't locate where to change the size of pics and video.
(Btw the X's they had at store were not on kit kat, so I know camera wasn't on latest firmware)
Anyone know?

The settings you found in the app are the only settings there are. They REALLY dumbed down the camera app. I hate how little you can control on it.
I'm coming from a 2.5+ year HTC Thunderbolt, and the Moto X is a real neat device.
But I think it's the only phone I know of that you can't preset the size pic/video you'd like.
Kind of strange, considering past dumb phones I had could do this.
Taking pics and video in the highest mp will definitely fill up the phone's memory fast.
Maybe future firmware will allow this, who knows.

I was a little peeved when I found out the picture/video size couldn't be adjusted. I told myself I didn't need all that crap from the S3 so I got the MotoX and then turned out that one small thing would drive me nuts.
Just go find an app in the market. Camera+ is one

That may be a possible solution... but this seems an absolutely silly omission from the stock camera app (especially the video).

Problem is, will 3rd party camera app launch with wrist flick, plus the tap to take pic and keep finger down for multiple is nice, as well as taking pics while recording a video, I don't think these features will work with a 3rp party app.
Motorola X exterior is customizable, they built a whole website for that customizable part, can even add a name to boot, but customize a photo before taking it, oh boy.
And I completely understand they wanted to create a phone that just works for the average Joe, but at the least they could have had maybe a 5mp and 2mp preset under the default 10mp. They can still keep white balance etc.
Plus I think camera would be even faster taking 2mp pics (not that it has to be).
Like mentioned, maybe they'll pick up on this and change in future firmware (which is at least possible to do).
