There's some apps on the play store for DPI changing. But you need root access I believed

There is some info here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2190933 of manually changing it, I set my phone to 420dpi looked not too bad, just some icons missplaced on the launch menu
Aparently Tablet UI works http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39145237
Anyone find a way to change the dpi of Google's new 4.4 kit kat launcher?
I tried changing the dpi of the launcher's app with no success. Also trying to change the dpi of the app drawer.
I was able to change novas dpi easily but this new launcher isn't quite as easy to change.

I'm interested in this as well now that I have a stable 4.4 running on my N4 but I suppose we should be patient. I know the crew at PA are working feverishly...
Pretty easy actually. First download app settings for xposed, then scroll down to google search and click dpi, then change to what you want

That's actually how I changed the dpi on Nova. Unfortunately, This method does NOT work with this launcher. Any other ideas?

These are my settings, but No matter what I change the dpi to, it doesn't change.

This works! !! Thank you, that was driving me crazy. I first tried changing the launcher settings and as everyone knows that doesn't work, then I tried changing the screen density in the build prop and that screws everything up. This worked!

Do as drakeymcmb said and change the setting for Google search, not the launcher. :thumbup:

When did this come out for our device?
400 dpi worked pretty good except the app drawer button was off center to the left.

You can change the dpi with Rom Toolbox Pro also.

Also..I'm not able to understand the difference between DPI and LCD density? Can anyone help..

Got mine set at 300
The problem is..my Trebuchet launcher is perfect. But the icons on the N5 launcher are big and hideous. Even the App Drawer looks ugly compared to Trebuchet. Any help with this..? Thanks!

How stable is the launcher for you? I was getting FC on Hangouts and Search everytime I tried to use it. is MMS working in the Hangouts App?
If yes, any thread you can link us to that shows the stable version and install instructions for this?

For the google search fc you just need the place this lib in, system/lib. Dont change permissions. Of course extract first.

Hour are people saying 400 DPI? My 150 looks massive...I dare not keep it 400...

The only way you can upgrade to the kit kat on a att is to be rooted. They have not rolled out the unrooted way.:crying: The knox notification is driving me nuts.

what DPI are most people using? I'm at 350, seems ok , maybe a little small.
I changed the lcd density using the prop editor and I made everything too small and took me and hour to get it fixed because even a factory reset wouldnt change it back. does anybody know the safest and best value?

If you have rooted phone then install DENSITY CHANGER app from play store. It's easy to use and safe.
Must say thanks. Be happy.

I recommend TextDroider_DPI (available in the Play Store) and I am currently using 380. I might bump down to 360, but this is a good medium.

Just you. I set my DPI to 380 and everything looks fine.
How did you change yours? None of the LCD density changers let me change it. It just reboots back to 480

Use app settings in closed to change all those apps back to stock. How did everyone change their DPI?

I have App Settings and have changed everything i can find that relates to the phone apk dpi back to 480, but no matter what the keybad wont change back..
Is there a fix?

I could be wrong, but I believe you have to change it back to 480 for contacts and phone for it to look right.

I was curious of people were changing their DPI settings on their note 4. If so what setting looks the best for you?
