Ok but how do i use is it to change the dpi of only 3 apps,cause this is all i need
for this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729331
I think the usual DPI is thometing like 220.
Dots per inch(DPI) [google it!]
In few words it's like resolution on PC screen.
Default i9000 LCD Density is 240.
Remember: you need root yor phone before change DPI.
Those changing LCD density affects the performance if the phone/ROM ?
its fine for me

no changes in performance for me after changing dpi only some times your google play store(if not a multi dpi one) may not work properly for which u will have to clear the data of GOOGLE STORE :good::good:

LCD density has absolutely nothing to do with performance, no effect what so ever. If you use a rom like Slim for example, it comes with multi dpi play store as well and most roms support multi-dpi anyway.
Wrong thread.

The SGS3 comes with a standard LCD density of 340. Now will probably be fine when I'm 85, but right now I'd like to get it lower, like somewhere between 200 and 240 Is it possible to change the LCD density on the SGS3 i9305?
I've tried LCD Resolution and it did nothing. I don't want to try LCD Density Modder because the reviews relating to SGS3 are terrible, most users had to re-flash their roms due to bootloops.
Are there other XDA/Google Play apps anyone can recommend or can this perhaps be done by editing a specific system file?
"Texdroider_dpi" from Play Store works fine and it's free

Thanks - what DPI values have you tested/used? And what did you find most suitable for daily use?
I only use stock dpi but from memory rom toolbox has an option to change dpi and you can also edit your build.prop and change the ro.sf.lcd_density=320 to another value like 240.
From memory I think 240 or 260 was a commonly used dpi but also not all system apps and mods support the multi dpi, stock dialer was one of them can't remember any others.
Good thing to have a nandroid backup when playing with the dpi incase of bootloops

It's safe, I've been messing with it on SGS2 and now. Very easy to use, no boot loops for me at all.
Now I'm using stock 340 but tried 220 & 240 and all works fine. 220 is tiny tho
Stock dialer is NOT full screen, can be annoying....

Thanks - I found a LCD dialer mod for the Galaxy S3 a week or two back.. can't find it now. Will post the link when I do.. not sure if it'll work the i9305 version tho..
240 LCD Keyboard Mod
Texdroider DPI confirmed working at 240 on SGS3 LTE
Galaxy Note 2 Keyboard 240 Mod confirmed working on SGS3 LTE so keyboard displays at correct density and fits the screen properly. Check the [MOD]240 DPI apps for samsung roms 4.1.1 & 4.1.2 [Update 27/11/12] thread for info and the SamsungIME apk

Note2 camera mod working also at 240 DPI on SGS3 LTE.. so the only mod I can't get working yet is the dialer at 240.. currently the 240 mod FCs but there's an update coming this weekend so hopefully it will sort the dialer.. then it's all good, 240 DPI with no compromises
Has anyone tried changing their dpi? The stock is a little big for me

Stock is a lot big. I run AOSP all the time. So I've changed mine to 410. Looks so much better.
Use 440 myself, on XDABBEB's ROM. Stock is 480.
I use texdroider dpi changer and have mine set about 400. Some things look weird like the camera but I like a smaller DPI
