[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Guide to change individual app dpi

You will need;

1 A root level file explorer like root explorer

2 A little patience

To perform the changes

So you need to find out if the app you want to change the dpi level for is either a system or data app, to do this open your file manager and look in system/app or data/app. You need to then long press the app you want and press rename. Then copy the app name by long pressing the text and press copy, dont copy any .apk or -1 at the end of the name.

Then navigate to system folder and look for pad.prop. press the mount rw button then long press open in text editor. So now you need to remember where you found your chosen app, was it system or data? If system long press under then system header or if it was a data app look for the apps header. To paste your app name in the right place find a empty line, long press then paste. You need to add at the start of the line for your app pa.

Nearly there!

So next at the end you need to add .dd= and then your chosen dpi level.

So for example for apex, I have it as a system app and my line in pad.prop for apex looks like

pa.com.anddoes.launcher.dd=221

Then you need to press menu key, then save and exit. Restart your app and it should display how you want

UPDATE 13/5/2012

I actually find using 220 dpi and using 4x5 grid looks better

Almost perfect tablet mode apex launcher

OK guys, finally I got apex launcher all sorted and found the optimum settings for this from, perhaps tips like this can be added into 1st or 2nd post. I have spent near enough my entire evening doing this and want to share so others can enjoy apex launcher properly using this rom!

1. Set the dpi at 221 for the launcher with this line pa.com.anddoes.launcher.dd=221 (copy and paste to system/pad.prop underneith the system header somewhere).

Home screen settings

2.Then set the icon rows and columns at 6x5 for landscape and portrait.

3. Set large horizontal margin and none for vertical margin.

4. Non scrolling wall paper (I prefer).

Dock settings

5. Uncheck hide dock (so dock is now shown)

Advanced settings

6. Check resize any widget

7. Check overlapping widget

8. Check widget in dock

9. Check keep in memory

10 ENJOY

set the rest to your preferences and enjoy apex in phone mode with everything displaying just about normally, including the app drawer, that's why dpi has to be 221 to get the right grid size.

Hope you like it guys and like I say its taken me ****ing hours to get this set up how I want it!

Haha thyrus I was just about to post it as i had downloaded it and flashed it and by the time i got back, you had updated! Great mod as I was having the menu button not being shown in some apps. This fixes it and definitely makes the menu buttons much more accessible as all apps seem to throw their settings button in different places. Thanks for the mod and keep up the good work!

Layout 720 to get tablet, you may have to edit the file manually if Tue setting is hidden in Paranoid Settings
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ts85:
Yea the only choice in paranoid settings is 600px , and that is not tablet?

So how do i do this manually?

Sorry if its allready been clearified on another page, and if it has just direct me there :), im in a hurry and thats why i dont have time to look right now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Note2Frat:
File is no longer called that. You can find it @ system/ect/paranoid
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ts85:
Thank you, so i guess its properties.conf i will have to configure right?

And i did change the

how can you make it look like that? For the first, i dont have the option of choosing 270..240 is maximum, but how can you make som icons look so small and some so big?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] philo_enyce:
hey thyrus,

thanks for the pa mod, i was really missing the menu button. quick question for you:

is it possible to build the mod with the recents button to the far left, then back, home and menu? i find that i can one-hand easier if i don't have to tap the far left bottom of the phone. i've used some other roms that have re-ordering built in and that setup worked well.

also, not sure if this is just me, but i can see the menu button on the pin lock screen. it isn't functional there and none of the stock buttons are visible.

take care,

philo
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Yes it is possible. However, I just don't have the time to create all of these variants.

In principle it is rather simple though - decompile my SystemUI, and then there are 3 files you must change (the smali eddits were already done by me if you use my SystemUI)

\res\layout\navigation_bar.xml (this changes the Nav bar in Phone mode)

\res\layout\system_bar.xml (this changes the Nav bar in Tablet mode)

\res\layout-sw600dp\navigation_bar.xml (this changes the NavBar in phablet mode)

open these in notepad++ and the re-order the icons in the various rotation modes (rot=0 and rot90)

I know this is not a comprehensive guide but it should help the devs to do such modifications
