Just change it build.prop. You can write HDPi too but it will be UGLY and some things will fc.

you will require any root text editor
go to /system you will build.prop file open it and look for ro.sf.lcd_density=120 or something like this change 120 to whatever you want

ok i found it but is there a limit to how much i can increase or decrease it? like for example set it to 80 or 260 or something?
talking about the limit
then maximum should be 120 and minimum should also be 120
Up to 100 it is easily readable. But I tried it in cm9. It blowed of my status bar

I would say default density is the best

Stop using big capital letters.
And agree, 120 is best density, 115 is good too, but all apps blow-up in that density.

Try mdpi themes. They work and usually don't need to resize anything.
ldpi themes are really rare, but you can pick any mdpi theme and they works pretty well. Don't change the density because it will force close some apps and you only have to wipe to revert back to 120.

yes it's true it's called LCD density, but by modifying this value in build.prop your display will look blur due to the fact that mini's display is not designed for HVGA resolution...

That value doesn't change your display's resolution. It just changes pixel density. You will still have 240x320, lol. Only difference is that everything will look smaller.

i think the modded looks cooler.but does it have any side effects?
some apps for changing density did not work on my phone...is it something to do about the ROM or mini cant change density to lower pix???
i think it can but not so much how we expect... it changes a little little more in my opinion
P.S. sorry for my bad english xD im italian xD

nope, changed, but still the same density
Cyanmobile settings worked for me you can also search for other LCD density tools on the market.

found one app...LCD density moder pro...works for me
just use root explorer, go into /system and opn build.prop in text editor (make sure mounted r/w)
look for the line in build.prop that looks like ro.lcd.density=120 and change the value to whatever you want it to be
save changes, exit, and reboot. your density should be changed to whatever you changed it to, and if you want it changed back, then look for your old build.prop which root explorer renames build.prop.bak as a backup
delete your build.prop and rename build.prop.bak to build.prop, reboot and you're back to standard screen density
i would rather do this way than having one more app on my phone's memory, plus there's a bunch of other stuff that can be tweaked in build.prop so really it's not a bad idea to be familiar with editing it and what each variable in it does
I hope you guys know that after changing density you will face a lot of app incompatibility issues?

changing happens only if you change below 100...i tested it
Hey,
I wanted to change the dpi in order to let the icons on my screen appear bigger.
But I don't know which values I should set since I don't really know how this works..
So could anybody tell me the values which won't brick my phone?
Thanks

Lowest dpi - 170
ok but wouldn't this make the icons look smaller? Any way to increase density?

use lcd density modder pro.
if you use the free version you will get play compatibility issues.

I used this app once, you need root access and that's it, there is a higher density and does make icons larger, i would lower it though
I want to change the font size on stock rom and specially in play store.
Chk it in settings....

If u have root u can try changing the changing the dpi of the screen
LCD Resolution (Root) / Rom toolbox
but u need to use a diff launcher.. doesnt seem to work good with TW
I want to change the font size in every app, i m not rooted and i am back from root, so on stock if there is a way to reduce the size
yes reducing the DPI will reduce the fontsize and app icons as well
Or as shiv said, just adjust it in settings, there's an option for tiny, small large or extra large, works across the whole ui.

Hey guys,
I want to change my fontsize.. In the Settings, I set the fontsize to "small", but in my opinion, it's to big. ^^'
Can I change the fontsize in build.prop or somewhere else?
Thanks for your help.

Download rom toolbox from Google play.. Loads of fonts, so I'm sure there will be something for you.. There is a free version and a paid version... Both versions do so much more though than fonts...

He means use those apps to find a smaller font. Some fonts are just smaller than others even at the same setting.
Yes I know.. It was just an idea, to change the fontsize in build.prop or in database..
But okay.. Thanks for ur help.
Just checked that font out.. it's looks small enough. But then, my eyes are going lol.
