D

DPI

• How can I customize DPI?

There are basically two ways to do so.

Change overall system DPI

You can change overall system DPI by editing build.prop system file. We do not recommend to do that manually.

Use some user-friendly app from Play store, e.g. Texdroider. But remember that you have to use multidpi playstore then to be able to install other apps without problems.

Change per-app DPI

You can use Per-App Settings integrated into this ROM:

First, all credits associate to Xposed Frameworks and Modules goes to Rovo89 for sharing his work and making it open source for everyone. You guys should all buy him a beer.

Steps to follow:

1) Install Xposed Frameworks by going in Modules Management>Install/Update

2) Enable Per-App Settings by going in Modules Management> Modules>Tick RootBox Per-App Settings (You should reboot your phone at this point)

3) Setup your phone : Per-App Settings>Choose your app>Set DPI/Resolution/Tablet UI/Language> Press Save on top

4) Your app should now display in your preferred settings. If it doesnt, kill the app and restart it or reboot phone.

• My device isn’t supported in playstore after changing DPI

You have to use the MultiDPI-Playstore here from URL="http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=4534385"] “MyLifeRocks10”:

Lockscreen

• How do I get shortcuts on my lockscreen?

RootBox Settings > Shortcuts.

• How do I put Chronus on my lockscreen instead of standard clock?

You have to drag clock on lockscreen. It will allow you to remove it. Then you can add Chronus or any other widget instead.

• How do I make Chronus show my Weather and Calendar on lockscreen?

Rom Control > Lockscreen > Minimize Lockscreen Challenge.

• How do I unlock faster when Minimize Lockscreen Challenge is enabled?

Rom Control > Lockscreen > Enable longpress to unlock.

N

NavBar

• How do I change NavBar Color?

Rom Control > Navigation Bar > Navigation Bar color.

• How do I enable NavBar transparency?

Rom Control>GeneralUI>Statusbar and navigation bar opacity.

Nightlies

• What is Nightly? Should I flash Nightly or latest Stable version?

There is no major difference. Nightlies are "unofficial" builds that are built almost everyday for everyone to try builds with the latest sources merged to RootBox. For noobs/average user, this is not necessary because they live in a bubble where they feel more comfortable flashing an "official" release than a nightly, but at the end, it all breaks down to just a differentiation of name. So if you don't know what a nightly is, don't flash it and don't bother asking.

S

Statusbar

• How do I enable Status Bar transparency?

Rom Control>GeneralUI>Statusbar and navigation bar opacity.

• What is fast toggle in Status Bar Toggles?

This will allow you to swipe from the right or left side of your statusbar (depending on what you choose) and it will go to your quick settings bypassing any notifications.

This ROM will be unofficial for a few builds to make sure it's solid and then will become official and moved to original development.
