Can anyone advise me as to the best software for reading word documents and excel in scale on the Xda2?

Do I already have the facility but am not using it correctly?

Your assistance will be appreciated

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] grimsacre:
In scale ?

Can you explain what you mean by "in scale"?

If you're using Pocket Word or Excel then you have probably found that there is a zoom facility on the View menu but I guess you need something different.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Biso007:
I believe the point is to be able to "display" the word or excel file in its original format and proportions. Check the ClearVue suit from www.WESTTEK.com
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Ian G:
Word Documents

Thanks guys

Grimsacre, yes I am aware of the zoom facility but I believe Biso007 has got the answer I need so, thanks to you both for your advice.

Have you guys seen the Source4 battery case that just posted to indiegogo? I've had my S4 for a couple days now and I'm seriously not happy with the battery life. How long do you think an additional 3200mAh battery will last? At least twice as long, right?

Cool concept. I'm a fan of big batteries and/or a semirugged/rugged case combo though, so this case probably isn't my cup of tea. It'd probably help the project/you if the pictures of the phone in the prototype/mockup...

Since I haven't posted more then 10 times on here I'm not allowed to ask this where I would like too, but I ran the Casual Root and it got about 95% of the way done then failed... and now I can't get to recovery. I can get to Odin, but for some reason that isn't recognizing my computer. I've tried different cables.. different usb's.. different Odin versions.. Installing/uninstalling/reinstalling drivers and nothing has worked. Any one have any suggestions?

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] bala_gamer:
Hi all,

Hope most of you people know about changing DPI stuffs, if somebody is new to DPI mods and stuffs then lets have a small explanation here ;)

So what is DPI?

Every android device has a stock dpi(Dots Per Inch) value based on the screen size and resolution. Devices like galaxy s2 has a stock dpi of 240, s3 has 320 and the value increases based on the screen resolution. The DPI values tells android how much pixel it should cover on the actual screen.

Why should i change DPI?

Though most of the people are comfortable with bigger icons,texts and windows many people consider it as a waste of space. With a big screen display in hand its better to have more space on screen so that the screen can hold more data.

So lower DPI values gives you more screen space to work.

What happens when i change DPI?

Once you change your DPI, all the content on your screen looks smaller and thus giving a HD look. Simply imagine this example, what happens to your screen on your pc when you change the screen resolution from 1280 x 720 to say 1920 x 1080. Changing DPI reproduces the same effect on android.

How to change DPI?

There are many apps in the market that allows you to change DPI, i prefer manual method which is pretty simple.

Steps:

1.Install root explorer.

2.Goto system folder in root.

3.Open build.prop in text editor.

4. Find the line

ro.sf.lcd.density=480

5. Change the value to

ro.sf.lcd.density=320(Or whatever DPI you want)

6. Reboot :)

Sample screenshot:

You can see the difference in the above screen shot, the image on the left side is taken with stock 480 dpi, the image on the right side is taken with 320 DPI

Downside of changing DPI?

Though all 3rd party apps work fine with modded DPI some stock apps wont scale properly on the screen which will look annoying. Hence the reason for this thread to fix the unscaled apps.

Apps that wont fit properly

* Lock Screen ------ (Fix available in post 2)

* Dialer -------------(Fix available in post 3)

* Gallery-------------(Fix available in post 3)

* Stock Camera------(Fix available in post 4)

* Calculator

* few more that i havent noticed yet.

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] PLUG313:
one question, will they only work on 320 dpi or will they support higher dpi's?

I think things look too small on 320, maybe 380 like [MENTION=1438429]Sammath[/MENTION] will be better
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Sammath:
I actually like 380 quite a lot. Looks a bit like 240 I had on my note 2.

I tried 240 on the s4 haha didn't know it would be soooo damn small :p

The camera is still usable on 380, for the dialer i use exdialer anyways since that's much faster than stock.

I don't really use screen protectors myself but I like keeping the back covered when I'm not using a case.

Ordered the xtremeguards since they were cheap as backup to the zagg I purchased. The Zagg back protection is great.

What I find for the front screens are they cover the back and home button causing issues with press sensitivity.

I was recently flashing new roms and it was too tiring sometimes to flash 5 times...

wipe data

format system,data, cache....etc..etc

so i decided to make a single flash wipe all zip

:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

This zip features deletion of following folders and their data

/data

/system

/cache

Dalvik is inside /data so not included it

As my ROM is stable now...test this zip yourself....well there's nothing harmful..i checked script twice

Enjoy:good:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jader13254:
Just do a factory rest & everything is wiped. System is formated automagically in 99.9% of the ROMs, unless a n00b made those :p
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] epicsilence:
but what about files inside system folder...there is still chance of ROM framework collision i think...but not sure
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] epicsilence:
hey where is your themes thread..i never meant to stop that or actually open source that :eek: ...are you working on it underground and come later with boom?:cyclops:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Devoct:
no.

like jader said, 99% of ROM's updater-script already formats /system before copying files.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] epicsilence:
so why many of them provide instruction to wipe this and that....even i agree with jader and u
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] leajian:
In order they to be sure and to make noobs double-do the wiping progress for their security... Or most of the developers have passed that useless instructions to others over time when CWM recovery was on it's early stages and the script was amend and not edify... Good old times... And they never had time to think (yes, no time to think I repeat) of that. Even I when I wipe cache after factory reset, even though I see that CWM says cache wiped, I do wipe again individually and I still wonder why! :P

There was once something on 9gag.com about this habit. It said : DOES FACTORY RESET, WIPES EVERYTHING AGAIN JUST IN CASE.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] epicsilence:
for which security...i mean...rom devs can flash their own rom over another to see if it works
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Devoct:
like what leajian has said.

just to make sure everything wiped clean, and anyone new to this kind of "flashing" things and don't know how things work didn't do it wrong.

and you know, we are all kind of have that "paranoid" feel.

like "Factory Reset and then still wiping /cache".

and, what you mean by ROM Dev is really a Developer or just someone that theme, putting all tweaks in one ROM, and repack it?

you know what i mean. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] epicsilence:
lol...see where this wiping thing has brought us all... :victory: so in the end the conclusion is conclusionless...lol...even we are unsure of rom devs over this wiping history

You are arrogant ,

Please never think of ur small Mods/Infos and think u are the best ,

Please don't judge ROMs dev , they are really better than you , you can't say that you more than them just because of ur little stuffs

Moreover , This ZIP is great but it is not a big contribution , thus Wiping .... And you act like you are Life savior, yes indeed , only noobs think that way

In fact , you're just being arrogant,

A word developer is marginally better than you ,

However , this is not 100% accurate , furthermore , The reason why there is no this kind of zip is that do it manually is more safe , believe it or not , you are fast learner , respect !

So you heard alot about creating a custom rom how about creating one with ease with this simple guide you will find it easy

So for whom is this guide?

Tools Required : (Update them manually and report me dead links please)

Step one: Installing the JAVA JDK, Cygwin and Setting up the Kitchen

*Before you do anything install the java jdk* (don't skip)

INSTRUCTIONS

1.Download and extract the cygwin_packages.zip

2.Run the set up(make sure there is no previous cygwin installation)

1.when it shows all the package names, go to the top and select "all default" until it changes to "all install" (you must click on the arrows)

1.Download the kitchen from above. Then, extract the kitchen's .zip file to a folder under your home account. Rename the dsixda-android-kitchen-*** folder to just "kitchen". In Cygwin, this folder would depend on what was set for your Cygwin install directory, e.g. C:\cygwin\home\John\kitchen

NOTE!! If your user folder contains spaces (e.g. C:\cygwin\home\John Smith\kitchen), then the kitchen will not function properly. Instead, copy it under C:\cygwin\home\kitchen

1.It's the time now you run the kitchen so follow carefully

2.Run the kitchen and follow
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] mythi:
Step Two: Setting up a working folder

THERE ARE TOW METHODS FOR THIS -but i will mention only one for now;).

1. WHEN YOU HAVE BASE ROM AVAILABLE.

FIRST METHOD -

1.First our folder structure should look like this:

cygwin folder/home/your user name/kitchen

1.Inside the kitchen it should look like this:

View attachment 1945748

1. Now we need a base rom for working on, You can any rom but i don't know if it works with stock roms:silly:

Just Place the original rom zip in the original_update folder inside the kitchen.

2.run the cygwin.exe again type:

cd kitchen(enter)
./menu(enter)

1.now enter option 1, enter again. You should see your rom listed, choose and enter

you will be asked about changing the working folders name, at this point it makes no difference so just continue.

2.congratulations you have a working folder!!!:):victory:

View attachment 1945756

Step Two :change/modify/update rom

YOU CAN MODIFY YOUR ROM IN TWO STEPS:

MODIFY USING ANDROID KITCHEN - for basic modification.

MODIFY MANUALLY. - for advanced modification.

1. MODIFYING USING ANDROID KITCHEN

2.Modifying manually will be added later on

3.Modifying .9.png's and oter stuff will be added soon saw stay tuned
