Best DPI?

I always used 290 on my nexus 4 and it was great.
I really don't like how big the icons are stock. Any suggestions?

I use Nova, Google Launcher icons are stupidly big

320 maybe

I wouldn't go 320... the stock value is 480.
I use 440, it's perfect for me. It could be smaller (but 320 is WAY too small), but with the large screen and bumbling one-hand use 440 is perfect. Plus if you don't use XGELS to modify the launcher settings, it adds a 5th column in the app drawer.
I will also add: if you change the DPI at all, Moto Display will be weird. It's just graphical, off center and funky icons. Xposed module App Settings allowed me to change the DPI of just Moto Display back to 480 and problem solved.

how do you change the dpi? the large icons are bugging me too

The large icons aren't a dpi issue, it's just the style of the Google launcher

Edit the build.prop.

I just use the app "textdroider dpi" to adjust mine

Just rooted 5.0. On 4.4.4, I had my DPI at 400 with the Xposed Module App Settings to correct Moto Display. Obviously, that's not an option on Lollipop. So, my questions is, does anyone know a way to correct this while maintaining a similar DPI to 400 and do it without Xposed?

Don't think there really is a fix.. With xposed you could do per app DPI.. I've learned to deal with it being a little off center using 420 dpi

That was my plan but then I noticed that after some time it seemed to re-center, but the actual active portion of the screen doesn't. So I have to slide to the left of the actual unlock icon to unlock it (???). Weird.

I'm interested too, those icons and applications are too big for me. I feel like we don't benefit of the entire 5.2" screen 1920x1080 and 441 ppi... it shows exactly the same amount of content as a 4.2" screen with 150 ppi. I would be happy to find a little fix too, I have not enough skills to build it.
Maybe the key is to come back to Nexus' line, but the Moto X 2014 seem so perfect except that point.

Just install nova launcher

Tried it. Indeed the desktop is better, but each time I launch an application like Youtube, Whatsapp or Settings for example, it feels I'm a old person who needs very big font size. I would like to see more on my screen, with smaller font size then.
Setting ourself the DPI would have been great.

I edit with pro build dpi with root explorer , perfect.

Anybody else noticed that the phone icon hasn't updated to the flatter one after update?... Looks out of place

Well, I decided to keep my XT1092 and try it out with some tweaks. I'm on Lollipop 5.0 (22.21.19 reteuall).
I firstly unlocked the bootloader, secondly I rooted it with Multitool 4.1, and finally I used "adb shell wm density XXX" to change the DPI to 360.
PERFECT : I have no glitches at all, even Active Display is OK. So I recommend this very easy method to be happy with a good screen DPI.
Edit : my bad, after the 1st reboot, I have same problem with Active Display, but it's worth it.
There will be Xposed soon I hope, then I'll take it back.

I found this too, but ended up going back to stock DPI for another reason as well: the back button does not get properly sized when you adb the DPI, it looks too big. Same goes for some of the status bar icons (for example the battery is larger than other buttons). Then there's the glitches like your profile icon in hangouts being way too big, the top developer icon in play store being way out of position, and the triple dots under the middle word suggestion on google keyboard being too large. Changing DPI is just a hassle and makes the phone uglier, which is a real bummer because this phone desperately needs a better DPI setting.

I don't have your problems...
Maybe it depends on which number DPI you are, mine seems OK with all of this. Also, I set "Small" font size in the settings. I got one "big" problem for me anyway, I can't use Swiftkey with this, there is a strange bug with this keyboard, I will post an screenshot later.

Scaling issues with custom DPI

since I changed the stock DPI to 520(via ADB) , I'm having a couple apps acting out, SwiftKey being the main offender to the point is rendered useless
I tried clearing data/uninstall but it didn't solve the issue. I'm stock rooted. Anyone knows how to fix this?

Change your DPI back. You can't modify system appearance and expect everything to cooperate!

^^^ This.
I am using 380 dpi and it works great on everything though. 380 puts the phone into tablet mode, but using dpi numbers that are not necessarily tied to anything can cause issues.

Change it to a DPI that Google recognizes ... Multiples of 80 .... Nexus 6 is 560 g3 is 640 etc .... So go back to note 3 which is 480... This also keeps your apps from breaking because some apps won't install when you have a non Google play store DPI

Really? I never knew that. Odd that 380 works perfect since that is not a multiple of 80 and it puts the Nexus 6 into tablet mode. Ill try 400 later and see how it is.

I was able to change my density using the following ADB shell commands, but it caused a few glitches with apps as others mentioned (Play Store, KeePass2Android keyboard, DSub, etc):
Code:
adb shell
wm density 480
exit
Perhaps those glitches are due to the build.prop still having the default density after applying ADB shell commands:
Code:
ro.sf.lcd_density 560
Next, I tried using a couple of different build prop editing apps, but none actually change the file even though I'm granting root access. Can anyone advise why this might be? Which app specifically did you use (play store link)?
Another method I tried was editing a copy of build.prop using a text editor, then used TWRP to replace the original and set permissions to 644. This caused my phone to get stuck at the colored dots boot screen, and forced me to do a nandroid restore in TWRP.
Seems like this should be easier...any advice?

Wait 380 put's the phone in Tablet mode?
Do apps think it's a tablet then? I'm missing Xposed and Tablet Metrics for making Spotify think I've got a tablet so I can use the skip song feature for free.

Oh wow multiples of 80 actually do fix things that break! I had changed my DPI from 560 to 490 and it looked GREAT but various icons inside of apps were broken in the sense that they did not display correctly. I changed my DPI to 480, a multiple of 80 and everything displays correctly now.
I did not know Google used multiples of 80, you would think some of the quick change apps would reflect that or let you know that!
Thanks everyone!

I just tried the adb shell wm density trick to change it to 480
Looks soo much better, but i had the visual problems.
I used custom DPI on my nexus 5 with XPOSED reporting stock DPI to play store to install apps.
I want to use 480 for the nexus 6 , but i have to be rooted to edit.
Using CF autorrot is just as easy as it was for the nexus 5?
I know i need to oem unlock, i havent done that. After unlocking, using CF auto root gives me SU. Will sideloading OTA-s stiil work with root or not?
I read that since lollipop , OTAs dont work if you have any modification. It was working fine with my rooted nexus 5 on Kitkat, but since lollipop something changed.

How do I change the DPI?

Where did you get that info? Why multiples of 80? Supposedly the native DPI of the Nexus 6 should be 493 and that's not a multiple of 80
Here's some info I found on reddit
"
The old "decide layout based on DPI" method has been deprecated since Honeycomb. Android guidelines since 3.2 indicate apps should specify a tablet layout based on the minimum resolution-independent "space" it needs to look comfortable -- the system will tell the app if that is actually the case.
Also, 480 dpi is in fact one of the "native" resolutions (XXHDPI) Google advises devs to include alternate resources in. So at 480, the system would not have to scale graphic resources for most apps, possibly making them look better. And no, 480 should not force common apps into tablet layout (source: Note 3 at native 480 dpi).
I do agree that scaling to even numbers is better; the best is to shoot for a multiple of 4 or 8, just because of how resizing algorithms work in general. So if 480 doesn't float your boat, 492 would be a very good alternative."

That thread is BS. The native PPI (pixels per inch).is 493. DPI is *nothing* to do with PPI. It's something entirely different. DPI is a Scaling method to make things bigger or smaller and has no direct relationship to pixels.
If you have a 5" screen with a 1080p resolution and a 10" screen with a 1080p resolution, they both have the same amount of pixels. So the pixels are much bigger on 10" screen, so all the buttons, icons etc would also be much bigger. This is not making good use of a bigger screens. So android implemented DPI to allow these assets to be scaled. What they are scaled to is completely subjective. There's no hard and fast rule. And they're Scaling within a set resolution so there is no loss of quality either.
Tablet mode comes in at under 300 DPI in later versions I believe.

That's because those sites are sort of wrong.
Forgetting android for a moment, in the printing industry and by extension, IT, DPI means Dots Per Inch. Literally how many dots in an Inch can be printed on a page. Dots and pixels seem very interchangeable at this point, but even there they are not. When a print designer mocks up a product for review, the pixels in electronic format do not translate to how many dots a printer can print. But because these two ideas are (somewhat incorrectly) seen as synonymous, and essentially a pixel on a screen is technically a "dot", the incorrect terms are used when it comes to screen technology.
All those sites that say the DPI is 493 are wrong. They mean PPI. The link you posted even uses PPI and then interchanges it with DPI. For screen hardware though, it certainly should be PPI.
Where we get even muddier here is that even the android developer documentation uses DPI to reflect the screen density as dots per inch. But android is using this in the software and not in the hardware. DPI is used to tell the OS what screen it has and from that the OS and Apps can decide how they should be displayed. Where as it seems right that the DPI should be set the same as the PPI, this rarely is the case. As we see with the nexus 5 and 6, Google set the DPI in android higher than the PPI because it looks better. So when Google are setting the DPI different to the PPI, we must be careful how we use these terms. The native PPI of the N6 i 493 but the native DPI is 560.
Edit > Further clarifying statement..PPI is a physical characteristic of a screen. DPI is a virtual representation of a screen.

More confortable DPI density

I've changed the stock DPI density of 280 from the gear live to a more confortable one for me.
I've done it trough adb and it takes a split second to effects change on watch:
Code:
adb shell wm density 230

Surprisingly most watchfaces stay pretty much the same. However, some of them like the samsung default watchface, you can see the center points of each hand starting to drift apart.

DPI changes

So I am hoping I am not the only one that thanks the stock navigation bar is way too big. On my Oneplus One I had it set pretty small, but it made the phone look better, just didn't make everything look so big.
My question is has anyone changed the DPI on the G4, and if so, what did you use to do that?
I am rooted and have flashed xTreme v1.0.
Thanks.

You just need an app like build.prop editor, ES File Explorer,or Root Explorer to find and edit text within the build.prop file. It is in the "system" folder. Once you've accessed the build.prop look for ro.sf.lcd_density and change the value from 640 to whatever you like and restart the phone. I've heard that if you go below 540 the camera app and some other apps will not work properly. I set mine to 560. Also, if you have a quickcircle case, that quickcircle app will no longer be aligned correctly as it's set for 640 dpi. Once we get xposed running or if you have a rom that allow for per-app dpi settings, you would be able to easily fix this issue.
Hopefully this helps.

Okay. THanks. Yeah I tried editing the build.prop and when it rebooted, it was optimizing 32 apps and when it was finishing up, it would reboot. So I am on my backup. Ill see if there are any other options or fixes to this. I just hate how big everything looks at the default.

I used an app someone in one of the G4 threads mentioned called DPI Density changer. I lowered it to 550 seems pretty good to me.

If you're unhappy with the NavBar, you can give Swipe Navigation [Root] a try. It's GREAT on the G4, the Nexus 6 and other onScreen Nav based devices. I have it set with the NavBar completely hidden and it has an outstanding swipe gesture setup to replace the NavBar buttons. It's made every app take full advantage of the display without any loss due to the NavBar sucking up some space.

Build Prop Editor on the play store works flawlessly. The DPI option is conveniently located in the side menu too. Running 540 with no issues, though the circle case will still be misaligned.

LCD / DPI Scaling Stock ROM Rooted?

I can't get the toolkit from the other thread to recognize my device worth crap. Rooted/TWRP'd, Xposed all working fine going the manual way. I would really like to scale things down on this large beautiful screen to gain more content space though. Anyone have any ideas?

You can always edit the DPI in build.prop but that will likely cause scaling issues. It does with the OnePlus 3. I imagine it would be the same with the 3T. If you want to just look for ro.sf.lcd_density. I'm pretty sure stock is set to 480, just set it to something lower like 400. There is also the per app DPI changer for xposed. You would have to set each app manually but you could set the ones that didn't work properly back to the stock setting.

Build.prop is the best method. Make sure to create a backup before editing though.

If you're rooted I recommend Le DPI Changer from the Play Store. Make sure you tick the "Use Shell WM for setting DPI". I have mine set to 400 and love it. There are also adb commands to achieve this without root but not sure if they'll work on the 1+3t

I use Easy DPI Changer from playstore and it works perfect...

Le DPI Changer failed on all normal settings minus the Build.Prop edit option. Confirmed that build.prop does work though!!! But same issue for me with the quick settings on OOS being misaligned, a bit shifted left. It's actually quite a bit left at 400DPI.
Any fix to this?

yep also getting the left shift. long press power you'll see the power off and reboot icons are messed up too. but that's about all I see. small price to pay. i don't mind it

Worked for me with "Use Shell WM for setting DPI" toggled but yes, shifts the quicksettings to the left here as well. Android N-ify Xposed module doesn't change the quicksettings either so I assume they've done something to add the quick toggles..

Le DPI Changer failed on all normal settings minus the Build.Prop edit option. Confirmed that build.prop does work though!!! But same issue for me with the quick settings on OOS being misaligned, a bit shifted left. It's actually quite a bit left at 400DPI.
Any fix to this?

You would have to deodex the OPSystemUI.apk. Decompile it and modify it. Someone did it for the OP3. I can't remember if it was on XDA or the OnePlus community though.
Edit: That's what I meant when I mentioned scaling issues.
