http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1615129
Anyone try it? Is it working on S3 mini? Can I do 720p ?

You can change the dpi, but you will not gain better quality. You cannot achieve higher frame density.

[Q] Resolution of Photos taken with camera...

Why is the resolution so small? The camera video recorder records at a higher resolution then still photos.... its outrageous. Am I missing some setting?
2560 *1920 is max in the camera and 1280* 720 is max on video camera.
You can change them in the camera setting.

Galaxy Tab with LCD Density

I wasnt satisfied with 1024x600p resolution the icons were huge so i rooted my tab with z4 and ive installed LCD Density .. and im keeping my tab at 200dpi (not to big but not to low either).
I have a question .. will this drain my battery faster cause ive noticed my battery lasts less in the last 2 days.. or is it just my 3G connection (im on Froyo 2.2 XWJJ3 default stock rom).
Changing your lcd density will not effect your battery

I like mine at 175, but my question is- will lowering LCD density have an affect on how the android market detects app compatibility? There seems to be yes answers and no answers I'm very confused...

This is my second tablet device that I have changed the density for and it doesnt seem to affect any app compatibility.
Whenever I set 200 density, market doesnt show me many apps that I have downloaded for free and paid in "My Apps". It also doesnt let me update the apps that are not shown.
For a little while now I've had my density set back to 240. I also had some app update issues when the density was changed. Appbrain would often show apps that had updates available that didn't show up as updateable when I looked in the market. And although appbrain said there were updates the apps wouldn't update.
Haven't had any such problems with my density set back to 240.

Changing your density will only affect apps and games that are not compatible with the density that you change to. When I change my density to 200, which is my ideal resolution, I have 5 games that do not run and their icons show up as a green and while box with the android logo in the middle of the box, they also do not show up in the my apps list in the market. When I change back to the original density of 240 everything works as normal, all 5 apps run and their icons come back as they should and they also show back up in the my apps list in the market.

Hmm. I run 180 and I have never seen any of that behavior.

I envy all you people running at < 240 dpi. My eyes' lenses got EDoF like a fu**n' cheap phone optics

Funny how this doesn't affect everyone. But it affects a lot of us, thank you very much for a bit of clarity!

Does the camera work when set at 180? Mine doesn't work on anything below 200
182 was the lowest I could get and have the camera work.
I just tried 182 and it works now on mine.

Is there a way to change the density but keep the font size unchanged?Thanks

No, changing the density is changing the resolution. Everything gets smaller or larger at the same rate.

Changing to Tablet Ui

Does it lower the resolution at all in landscape?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
guess i should say by changing the dpi.
Try it out. You only need to change one value and if you don't like it you can change it back.
Sent from my secret spaceship
lowering the dpi, increases the resolution, lowering the DPI on my htc velocity for example can increase it's resolution to 1080p, which is ridiculous but also awesome.
lowering the dpi and increasing the resolution can make some apps break as they are not written to take advantage of all possible resolutions.
OK thanks right now I have the DPI set to 160 and everything looks great in landscape just have to get used to it after using it only in portrait on the home screen for the last week lol.

that being said it doesn't actually lower the dpi, this sort of setting is basically lying to the operating system to make it pretend that the dpi is lower and make everything smaller, it doesn't actually change the resolution of the screen.

It's physical resolution. Our Ace' resolution is 480*320. That means our Ace only got 480*320 pixels on our screen.
you could allways go for a ace 2
the galaxy ace 2 has a i think 400*800 resolution so.... and a dualcore to power it but again our normal ace can only use 320*480
If you are a Good Hardware engineer ..then you can change the specs of your device ..and add whatever u want

[Q] 1080p Video Recording

Hi all.
I have been trying to enable 1080p recording on our s3 mini and would like some help. I downloaded cm11 from the xperia P (same cpu, records 1080p, different camera) and changed our build.prop and media_profiles.xml to try enable it. Now in the stock camera and other camera apps I get the option to record 1080p but its always gives me an error. But when I change from 720 to 1080 in the camera app I can cleary see a change in the field of view, i.e, it gets wider.
Someone on here said a while back that the hardware is capable of it but it just needs to be enabled. Has anyone any experience is anything like this? I have seen it been done before on the Moto Atrix 4g and Galaxy Nexus.
I thought the camera wasn't capable of recording in 1080p.

our hardware only supports up to 720p recording. apps dont change this
