Changing DPI

So, I want to change my DPI back to whatever a normal stock GNex is (320 if I read the info right) but no matter what I try, it never changes on the phone. I followed through the checklist in the ROM but it never changed. As a related side note, the clear market data button in the list failed too. I have just done the install using the Slim GApps and let stuff restore OTA from Google... nothing more. Any help would be greatly appreciated as this font size / DPI setting is a little small for me to see easily.

Read more carefully.

They have the

same

pixel count: 1080x1920 = 1080x1920. If your calculator tells you different, tell me.

They have the same number of pixels

.

What they have different is the

pixel density

. As I explained before, this is how many

pixels they have per inch (how condensed the pixels are on the screen).

So they

do have the same pixel count, just different pixel densities.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ars0n:
Well that would be were jumping in the middle of a conversation mixes **** up, The guy I was talking to previously was stating that the pixel/resolutions were different, I was pointing out the ppi and the resolutions..were in fact different but the same resolutions.. If people want to talk about pixel RESOLUTIONS, you say resolutions, not pixel count?? I understand what you are trying to say now.. but perhaps be MORE helpful then just jumping in the middle of conversation and telling people they are wrong, throw out some facts to support your findings?

Instead, I make posts that nonchalantly act like a smart ass then say, delete this post if ya wanna flame, how about just talk to someone like you would want to be talked to? Then dont worry about flaming.. =D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NeverSeparate:
Perhaps I misused the word resolution. So, my mistake. When I said that I was referring to my previous statement about the pixel density. I was only pointing out that "they have the exact same hardware'" might not be completely accurate. Sorry for causing an argument. Wasn't my intention.

Dragon Mobile

Have a weird question to ask, and searching the forums hasn't helpedme. I was using the Vanir Rom and had Dragon mobile working fine but I missed Slimrom a lot so I switched back but can't get Dragon Mobile to work. Any idea what's missing from Slimrom that would make Dragon not work? It's the voice activation that's not working... like it can't access the mic? On Slimrom Google voice search works great. I've wiped twice, while installing each ROM two times to be sure it wasn't a bad flash...alternating with Vanir, then SlimRom...Vanir, then SlimRom. Each time Vanir would work, Slim would not. I think I've eliminated everything down to a missing module or app?

Any help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcalstone:
The only thing I would ask you is on slimrom are you changing the dpi back to 320? I believe you will need to do this. I suggest you edit your build.prop manually or use a program. DO NOT use the built-in dpi switcher cause that will screw up certain apps from functioning properly. For example my hangout wasn't notifying me on new messages so I would had to enter the program every time. I finally narrow it down to the built-in dpi switcher. GL if this isn't the cause.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
Which addon did you use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xsoldier2000:
Appreciate the help, but I do use Kernel Tuner to switch the DPI back to 320 by editing the build.prop as I've found the same issues you have.... but that doesn't fix this problem. (BTW, I change the DPI and reboot prior to installing all my apps....just in case that is the issue.)

Thanks though.

---------- Post added at 12:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------

?? Not sure I'm following. If you are talking about an Xposed module.... I don't use Xposed.

I haven't installed anything OS related, just apps from Play. I figured since Google Voice search worked fine than Dragon would also, but that is not the case.

DERP: ahhh...Addon just clicked.....Slim_AIO_gapps. (Sorry)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xsoldier2000:
Yeah, I went there also, but I couldn't have the launcher the way I wanted. I love my Nova launcher, but missed the Ok Google assistance, so I went to Dragon. I know, I know....can't please everyone.

Thanks again all, I'm moving on. I think my G-Nex is dying a slow death... Keep having to flash anew every three or four days....so I'm going to be shopping around for an off contract phone. What ever I get it has to be supported by SlimRom.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tshelby73:
Yeah I just uninstalled it on mine. It was making my phone lag and constant redraws to home screen. Just went back to the trebuchet on CM 10.1.3 stable but like you miss the ok Google. Didn't care for Google now on left. I always had a certain set of apps on left and was always opening Google now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
I would recommend the N5.

Nice phone and very fast. Slim works great on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Az Biker:
What are your phone reco's for a Verizon user like myself where the Nexus 5 looks like a slim to none probability of coming to VZW (Band 13 issue)? I recently upgraded to a Note 3 but at the moment the bootloader is not unlockable and there is a work around (which is "iffy" since Kingo root hasn't received XDA blessing yet), but it doesn't include the ability to flash a kernel.

Outside of the Nexus 5, what would your reco be? I have 8 days left to return the Note 3... I'd love to keep running Slim, it has always been a top notch, professional ROM even in the company of my other favorites like Carbon, Atom and Axiom... Even if you don't dev for it, a phone reco from you carries a lot of weight in my book.

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
I don't really know which phones you can use with Verizon since I live in Europe.

However the best thing you can do is to check the forums and look what kind of bugs in the threads appear.

Beside that you can look which hardware the device is running.

For example phones with an Exynos chip had quite some problems in the past.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitsua98:
Yeah I think all Verizon phones use Qualcomm because Exynos doesn't work well with LTE.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcalstone:
I would say get the LG G2. It's the closest thing to a Nexus device on Verizon. There's an unofficial slimbean thread here and I'm sure it will get an official one once 4.4 is stabled enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitsua98:
The Moto X on Verizon already has an OTA for Kit Kat though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcalstone:
Yeah I know but the OP was referring to getting Slimbean on the device which you can't do on the Verizon version of the Moto X. I don't mind getting the Moto X though if I were to stay stock that is, just wish it had a bigger screen with better specs. I guess there always the Moto X2 right? =)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xsoldier2000:
Last off topic post, promise.

Yeah, I'm looking at the LG G2, Moto-X, or the Nexus 5. I have Verizon (Unlimited data grandfathered) so the Nexus is only an option if I sell my plan and move to another carrier. (Dislike for Verizon not carrying certain good unlock-able phones and that they are expensive kind of makes me WANT to get out....but you can't beat the coverage. Sooner or later they are going to pull the plug on unlimited data and I will be stuck anyway.)

I like the LG G2, but have a bad taste from a LG Spectrum that was worthless. (I know, not the same phone...but there is still resentment) and am happy that Motorola and Google are together, and especially that the Moto-X HAS received Kit Kat.

Thinking heavily on buying the Moto-X outright

Gahhh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
The Moto Xnis certainly an interesting device.

Would love to try it out.

I think the Moto X is the most Nexus-like in Verizon.

Non-removable batt, and 16gb kills it for me... Same reason I shyed away from LG G2...

Neb, I'm gonna miss Slim. I have seriously considered, more than a few times, going back to my Gnex during the week I've had my Note 3... Slim is a huge reason for this. Slim is by far the most professional looking ROM and has been the most consistent one I've used. Excellent work! I will be keeping my GNex up to speed with the latest Slim as long as you update it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
I'm very happy to hear that :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] volcalstone:
No The Moto X might of gotten 4.4 first but that doesn't mean that it's a nexus like device. The G2 has very similar hardware like the N5 and with a custom 4.4 rom on it, it's pretty much like a N5 but on steroids. The Moto X is lockdown so good luck with putting any custom roms on that bad boy.

I returned my n5 btw, was using it on my AT&T line. I wanted to like but the battery was draining too fast, what a disappointment really. My gnex running slim w/ golden kernel has better battery life. Moto X is a great stock device, but the maxx can be had for only $50 more bones off contract and you get twice the phone. Get a G2 if you know for a fact that your gonna be loading custom roms. It's an awesome phone for the price. I can't say much bout Samsung phones cause honestly I only like their AMOLED screens.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xsoldier2000:
As the G2 does have a slimbean (unofficial) and have only read good things from the phone owners, I'm picking up the G2 today. Thanks Nebucatnetzer for keeping my GNex happy on Slimbean and for all your dev work. Going to send you a little something something for all your support.

(Hope YOU get a G2 and make it an official ROM)

This is my favorite 4.3 ROM but I can't figure out how to get root access. I clean installed multiple times (also mounted and formatted system), made sure I was downloading and flashing the correct gapps, and tried going to advanced>superuser>root access>apps and adb.

I was able to search this thread on the xda app for "root" and found the methods above, but I'm still having trouble.

How can get root access on this ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] prbadboy69:
You may have to enable developer options, go to about phone in settings and click on build 7 times to enable. Now go to developer options and enable root
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RepeatUntilTheEnd:
I'm really showing my lack of experience with 4.3 here. That was it...

I'm blaming this one on lack of sleep.

What I usually do is disable root first then enable it by selecting apps and adb. This will enabled root since it's disabled by default even though it's on apps and adb at boot if that makes any sense.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NeverSeparate:
Are you on WiFi? Try turning it off before sending if you are. Sometimes the issue is the phone doesn't switch over to data to send. MMS do not send on WiFi and if your phone isn't switching automatically they won't go through.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Echo5Kilo:
I'm not sure if it's a bug or not, but I let my phone sit on the nightstand last night (off the charger) and upon waking up this morning, I was down about 30% battery. I opened up GSam Battery Monitor and here are the stats:

Used 39% in 9h 24m

App Usage: 43% (now mind you, the phone is in a deep sleep, so I figured this one should have a low percentage)

Of that app usage, "Phone" consisted of 14% - CPU Usage 8m 7s

I guess my question is, is this normal?

I did a fresh/clean install of this ROM to rule out any dirty flash issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Az Biker:
You have something running in the background for sure. Normal nightime drain is about 1-2% per hr... When I was running a Gnex that was well set up (greenify, kernel tweaked, no auto-sync, no poorly behaved apps, etc) I was getting .5-.7% per hr.

If you don't have them, get better battery stats, wakelock detector, and greenify. Google 'google maps keeps waking up phone' there's a location setting or something that makes it run in background...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrotherCheese:
Me too! I was just lurking this thread to see if this has been an issue. I was worried my mic jack was messed up and causing a drain. I've logged out of G+, no auto sync, no sync/notifications on 3rd party apps. Running build 2.2 on leankernel v8.3, no custom settings.

BTW, the mms pic send/receive issue isn't happening anymore, although it still takes longer than I would like to send a pic.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Echo5Kilo:
I haven't had any mms pic send/receive issues on my end. Just an annoying battery drain. And honestly, my phone has ALWAYS lost at least 25% battery over night.
