Yeah, sure... you just have to visit a phone shop and buy something with bigger screen btw. you made my day lol

@yacky: stop tormenting the poor guy lol.
@vishal: No u can do nothing, its called improving pixel density, this is hardware issue and u cannot do this. Only solution is to buy a new phone.
I can understand that. I was disapointed too (at that time i was a complete noob when i bought mini - 1st smatphone) But thnx to xda its
better now.

Well you can! Not so as you want but will surely make you minis screen virtually bigger
Just install LCD Resolution OR LCD Density.
Both apps tweak the density of the screen.
So run any app(LCD Resolution recommended), and just lower density to 110. Simple.
*some apps may crash.

YouTube 5.9.0.12 and no resolution selection?

I'm on Android 4.4.3 and Sense 6.0 Developer Edition -stock rooted.
I've updated the YouTube app to 5.9.0.12 but it has no resolution selection -check the attached screenshot. Is anyone else with the same version and with no resolution selection? What could be the reason for that?
Now updated to 5.9.0.13 and still no resolution selection!
Thanks in advance!

Any idea?

No resolution in settings. There is a choice of resolution when you play a video, but there is no 1080 p in my case

Some people have the choice to select resolution from the settings. Why our apps don't have that?

I had it on old version. Never looked after updates because I set it to 1080p and thought it didn't change after updating the app. Now it's gone and no way to set resolution higher than 720p

SloMo

I have the nexus 6 5 months now and there is still nothing from google or any dev about slow motion video capture. Its a pitty that our device is capable of it but we cant use it, i was reading in a post a commend of a dev that said it takes time for a dev to make an camera app with slomo for our device and if aome one would try to make one he didnt want to give it for free. Well im really willing to donate for something like that, no offense to the forum or devs but i really want an app that captures 120 or 240 fps slomo. Im sure there are more out there like me who would donate for something like this. Or maybe is there any rom with an other camera that has that capability?

Lcamera supports it for the N5 but since the dev doesn't have a N6 he can't do anything. In theory it should work but he can't test it. I too miss it from my DROID days.

There are other apps too but the one I have only does 30fps

Gallus.

Currently 30fps is the max N6 can do. Lcamera crops the sensor into 4th so in theory we could do 120fps @ 1080p

however there is no app that is giving us this future. I am checking some camera comparisons on yourube and I see that our nexus 6 has a super camera (spec wise) but the app is keeping it behind. I really would be happy to port a camera on it which could give me some of those futures....

I'm currently setting up my build env to see if I can get Lcamera's mod working on the N6.

I wish you good luck, please let us know if you need someone to test out lib or apks

Its really disappointing for me that the google camera doesnt have slomo or cant capture 1080p 60fps... its one of the best phones out there...

How to get 2k Resolution & 577 DPI on your M9

This started as a simple method to help or interest other's. But some how it turn into a disaster by the majority of the community/admins .. I'm explaining on how to do this ONE LAST TIME for the guy( jmwils3) I was going to reply to before my thread was closed down and to all the few people who were really interested in this but couldn't receive the info since I was silenced by Tin Foil Hat People/Fanboys .. For anyone else still interested in my insightful info or want to know more of my development in linux base operating systems, Please feel free to PRIVATE MESSAGE ME. Now on to the 2k Resolution/577 DPI Method for the M9>>
Requirements
-You must be rooted
-You must pick a different launcher than stock. (For me Nova doesn't work well. I use the Dodol Launcher and then resize Icons and widgets depending on preference)
-(AND REMEMBER RESIZE ONLY AFTER YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED YOUR CUSTOM RESOLUTION)
Method 1
Here I will only explain the most basic method/easiest way to do it..
-Download the app called "Resolution Changer Pro" <<DISCLAIMER>> I do not condone or represent this app in anyway, NOR do I even Know that developers of this app. In fact I don't even give two flying [email protected]#KS if you use another similar app to achieve the same goal( I just found that one works with my M9) <<Plus I felt I just had to say this disclaimer for the nimrods that will say"He's getting paid for advertising dissssssss!!" LMAO
-Next change the height to 2560 and the width to 1440 and lastly dpi to 577 and then hit Enable
-At this point everything going to get weird . But don't worry it's cool Next I need you to go in the same app and touch the "Fix navigation bars" )This is because us HTC one guys have the on screen buttons(Other phone users shouldn't do this)
- After that is will fast reboot and you're all done!. Just resize Like I said from your launcher and you will be straight.
Other Methods
There are other methods done by hard code and build prompts. But I will wait till people start asking me for a more stable/clean method without all the [email protected]#HING (But the method above should suffice)
OH! AND ONE MORE THING FOR "CONFIRMATION"
-Go to the youtube app and you now have the 1440p(2k) viewing option. And watch the BIG DIfference in detail! ( I choose to watch MKBHD videos since hes one of the few that upload videos in 2k to 4k on youtube)
You can also go to antutu benchmark app for the final results as well as I did in my OP.

You do realize that you aren't changing the resolution of the screen. That's NOT POSSIBLE.
What you're actually changing is the DPI. Basically you're tricking the software into thinking your screen is higher resolution. You're NOT changing the actual resolution of the screen. Take a microscope and examine the screen. There's no difference.
You get the 1440p option in youtube because the software THINKS you have a 1440p screen. You don't. It's like watching 4k movies on a 480p TV. It's possible, yes, but stupid.

So explain to me why HTC didn't just put the worst resolution screen in the phone and just change it in the software? Why wouldn't every company do that to save money? Because it's not possible.
There are a set number of pixels on a screen. You cannot change that.
And you don't need a microscope. Just a macro lens and a good camera.

Same reason they underclock the CPU before launch(They were "Cautious"). And mind you, I never said we were changing the "PPI" in the OP. I said we were changing resolution and "DPI". BIG DIFFERENCE.... What method we are practicing here is basically changing the dimensions of the image of a 1080p display to achieve a 2k almost or the same equivalent in quality . It's true we known from mistakes in the past by doing this to dvd and upscaling them to HD can cause distort images sometimes. This s NOT the case with a "5 inch display" compared to a 42' inch Television. Hence why I also said In my OP that it will get weird after the resolution is set. But the launcher correct this issue easily simply as I stated before it's only 5 itchs we're dealing with. Maybe you should try it first before shunning it. The video playback is quite good.

Got a headache reading your posts. Thanks.
Why stop at 2k, why turn your 2k display into a 4k? Heck why not 8k?

LOL, Don't mention it .. And I suppose it would depend on hardware. And there isn't an 8k option on the youtube app that I know of as of yet. Not even a 4k option. But like I said of what "I Know" .. Maybe you know something new that I don't

Hey, changing the native resolution of the screen is physically IMPOSSIBLE. It is built into the hardware. The screen itself supports up to 1920x1080 resolution. Anything you think you're changing it to is not real. You're just making things smaller on the screen to give it a 2k effect.
That would be like buying a 1080p television and saying you can change it to 2k or 4k. Why wouldn't everyone do that then?
You should go read about the differences between hardware and software.

So change your wording then. People who don't know better keep thinking that you're making the phone have a actual 2K display like the S6/M9+.
You're changing the DPI which can be done with a simple build.prop edit and has NOTHING to do with resolution.

No one is being rude. Your title (and your other post) say that you can change the resolution of the phone. All I'm saying is that that's physically impossible. I'm not attacking you at all. You probably meant change the DPI only.
Also, you kept saying that the screen looks a lot better and videos look more clear. It would be the same as watching 4k movies on a 1080p TV.
If you want to provide facts, go for it. That's the point of this forum. If you know something, you're free to share it.

So you are increasing the resolution but not the PPI here!
How is that even possible?
Changing your DPI will not increase the resolution of your screen.

My apologies, I simply took it the wrong way. And yes you can change the resolution. What you mean to say is we can not change the "Native Resolution" which I never said we were doing to begin with. Again "BIG DIFFERENCE"
And yes it looks better due to the fact of "Chroma Subsampling"

So you don't read all the "TWO" pages in this thread. And you have the nerve to be griping about an compliant/issue .. From what I'm told; XDA is suppose to almost embody of ALL the people that is going to "SEARCH" and "FIND" the "SOLUTION" to their "PROBLEM" / "CONCERN"

Just so you know the problem is starting due to the misleading title of your thread. You are in fact not increasing the screens resolution. You are downsampling in order to trick the GPU into displaying a higher resolution but the quality is simply not there.
When a display has native support for resolutions up to 1080x1920, you can use downsampling to send out a signal which tells your display to output a resolution of 1440x2560. HOWEVER, a typical display with a maximum resolution of 1080p has around 2 million pixels, while a 1440p/2k display has around 3.5 million.
Of course, downsampling does NOT increase the amount of pixels being displayed, that of course is physically IMPOSSIBLE. Your display CANNOT go beyond native display physical limitations determined by the screens ppi. All your method does is simply trick gpu to push fake 1440p resolution to your 1080p display. This cause compression to fit inside the screen. The effect it has is akin to zooming out on a lower resolution picture.
Also as other users posted, and is a 100% correct, you can change dpi through build.prop edit without all this other nonsense.

What are the default for the. M9? Did this and want to go back. It causes some issues with the camera.

Always 4k resolution mod?

Hi, just wondering if anyone has been successful making the phone run in 4k all the time?
I tried the old adb method that works on older 4k xperias but on the Xperia 1, after setting it to 1644*3840 i lose control over the home back and many other functional buttons. I played around with several densities as well to no avail. Even installed the old xperia home launcher fr xz2p also can't get it to work.
If anyone has done this successful kindly share. Thank you.

Changing the resolution by using wm size will only "emulate" 4k. In order to have the phone in 4k mode, you'd need a kernel that supports it. I remember back in the XZP, there was an AOSP release that allows you to choose the resolution and refresh rate. Unsure if Sony devs are working on AOSP for the Xperia 1 as well.

With Xperia1 it's a bit different, you can change the wm size and density but it won't work. It doesn't behave the same way it did on the xzp for some reason.

Only when 4k is required which isn't very often, pointless being 4k all the time as it will just waste battery

On the XZP it did visibly work, background images (if you used image2wallpaper app for example) for CLEARLY sharper in it's "always 4k" mode than the regular ones.

The way to get that is simply to compile AOSP for griffin (Xperia 1, j8110 or j9110) and you get 4k always on.
Or if you can't, wait for me to release my Pixel Experience may build with that feature baked in.
I'll have to make many xda threads for each supported device (which is from the xzp to Xperia 5, so that's a lot)

Hello mate, is it safe to say this is abandoned now or will you still release your ROM? I've been looking forward to it for a while now for the Xperia 1

always 4K mods using ADB commands works on android 11!
1644x3840 with density of 560 is my favorite

Also, isn't it already running at 1644x3840? I just took a screenshot of the home screen and it was 1644x3840.
