Big Keyboard and Icons after Resolution Changer - LG G Flex

Hi guys,
i have a big Problem.
Used Resolution Changer to change DPI on my G FLEX.
After return to stock value i have a unusable big Keyboard and big icons.
How to fix that ?

Most of LGs apps are hard coded to 320dp.
Everything but the keyboard (I've tried) can be fixed by using xposed and app settings module.
Find the misbehaving app, and set it to 320dp.

that means i cant fix the keyboard ?
i have to recover my phone right?
can i go to recovery mode and reset my phone ? or are there other steps to do with root ?
thx for help.

Setting DPI back to stock (320) should have made all of LGs stuff work properly.
So, fix your DPI back to stock with that app, then get rid of it.
I use:
xposed + app settings
In app settings I find system UI and android system, set them to the DPI I want (instead of setting the DPI in build prop), then fix DPI (set to 320) for any LG app that won't work with what I set.
However, LG keyboard is funky, it won't like anything but 320 anywhere. So, if you want smaller DPI you must use another keyboard like Google keyboard or any other keyboard on the play store.
(edit)
Did you make a full backup in recovery? If yes, go and restore it, and never use that resolution changer app again.

Gem Miner not working after density change

Hey,
I really like the Gem Miner: Dig Deeper game but after changing the lcd density it's not working anymore.
My default density was 240 and i wanted to try a smaller one so i picked 220. But i noticed the game wasn't working anymore. I get a white screen with 1 brown block. So i changed it back to 240 but the game is still fckd.
Can someone please help me, i really like this game
I tried reinstalling the game and remove all app data stuff.
Nobody?
Damnit, i really want to play this game xD
I'll try to reinstall my ROM then and hope this will fix it.
hey, I had the exact same problem with gem miner, figured out it was the density issue, but you don't have to wipe or reinstall, you just need to enable compatibility mode in the density changer app. If the one you're using doesn't have this in options then get 'LCD Density Changer', has a little red screen icon, go into settings and check the compatibility mode check box and reboot, game should work perfectly now ;->
note: you can still have a custom density and the game will work with compatibility mode.

Density, usb and animation questions

Hi, can i ask,
1. Can i just change the lcd density from build.prop if im using rooted stock 4.03 lpf? If i change to 240, any problem will occur?
2. How can i set stay awake when usb plugged in this rom?
3. Do we have crt animation? Is it samsung ruin it and have to wait them fix it?
Thx everyone

Ofcourse you can ask
1. Use ROM Toolbox Lite (Free) Application from market. Now go to Performance Tab & You can tweak there the lcd density. If you change density, usually nothing as such happens. Except that some widgets which are built on particular density crash. I had weather widget which used to work only in 320 density. So now it doesn't work in 280 (which is my current). I killed the widget now
What is the worst I have faced by changing the dpi? FCs, Widget Crashes & Once a bootloop. All three can be resolved by one thing: Flash back the ROM xD
2. Another app called as smart app protector (free) is in market. I guess they have a tab called 'Screen' through which you can set LCD to be awake when a particular app is running. I hope this should resolve. Not sure on this though.
3. It depends on which ROM you are in. Yes, we do have CRT animations. I am on Asylum ICS. I do have it.
If you want to go ahead and manually enable it: http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/enable-crt-animation
this should help you get some idea on how to.
Well, there ain't any shortcut to the manual trigger bouy!

[Q] Edit dpi in semcphone.apk?

Is there any possibility to fix the dpi in phone app? I changed screen dpi from 480 to 420, and it works great everywhere. Except in phone app. It doesn't adjust to the new settings. Why is that, and is there a way to fix it?
Best regards
You can use App Settings xposed module to set dpi per app.

[Q] Replacement for App Settings?

On 5.0 Rooted. Everything is working good enough. The only thing I am really really needing from Xposed is the App Settings module. I change my screen density to 320, but the Camera and Dialer/Contacts don't react nicely. Is there a way I could change their density back to 480 like I would with App Settings?

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.

Did you have any bootloop issues?

I didn't. Never had any boot loop issues throughout the whole rooting process. I have an ATT H810 model however. Just lurking on the T-Mobile page to see what development comes out now that you all have unlocked bootloader.

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.

Build prop created boot loop for me too I switched to kernel audiutor from play store and no more boot loops. Changed dpi to 530 with no issues.

Dpi density changer worked for me. Nav bar is still a little big for me at 540 but its manageable. Thanks for all the help!
