[LG Optimus G Pro] Kriggs:
Been using the AppSettings for awhile, and found 2 problems

1. Apps seems to delay a bit longer to load, dunno if it's because it redraws or it's just feels longer because you can see first the big interface then small.

2. There is a gap of a few pixels between the StatusBar and the HomeScreen/Apps that have it. FullScreen apps works like a charm.
[LG Optimus G Pro] liamR:
Hi Kriggs,

With my instructions there isn't noticeable gap as in your screen shoot, I haven't notice any lag as well.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Kriggs:
Yeah, I should've said I'm still using the stock launcher, haven't been able to change the "Android System" to 320dpi, it's him who FC the launcher, and probably who runs the top bar size.

I really like LG's stock launcher and the black line is a minus so I'm keeping it, for now. I'll change build.prop when CM10.1 is all working :D
[LG Optimus G Pro] draiko913:
I played around with this a few days ago and couldn't get anything to work well except a density of 400 (which also happens to be what the secondary density is set to in the build.prop). Everything seems to scale correctly with the stock applications except the camera. The camera has black on the side and bottom of the screen, but still works ok. On any other density, the launcher ended up being mostly unusable (seemed to convert to a 4x4 homescreen grid). I did not do anything with the xposed framework though, just direct edit of the build.prop file.
[LG Optimus G Pro] zohaer21:
can anyone post up some screenshots for comparison .. whats the main benefit here ???

thanks
[LG Optimus G Pro] Kriggs:
Is there a way to put apps in tablet mode, 240/213 dpis are unusable here...

More on screen thingys.

Stock dpi

320 dpi.

With Cyanogem it will look something like this, at leat for me:

That's the old way to do it, nowadays it's better to just edit everything with AppSettings, the build.prop is good just so you don't have to set every app to the desired density, but you can achieve all on the fly with xPosed.
[LG Optimus G Pro] zohaer21:
[MENTION=3768712]Kriggs[/MENTION] : thanks ... really makes a huge difference
[LG Optimus G Pro] liamR:
This is how it looks with my way 360 dpi (attachment).
[LG Optimus G Pro] liamR:
I found a fix for the LG home launcher FC. OP updated.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Kriggs:
Almost all good, 2 things got messed up though:

Wallpaper gets cropped, not live wallpaper though

Transparente top bar in pop-up menus

Also, keyboard letter appears small in 320, setting font scale to 150 gets all back to normal
[LG Optimus G Pro] ivantastic:
afaik, playstore won't support for dpi value except 320 - 400 - 480

i use 400 dpi and all look fit for my eyes using nova launcher (won't fit with stock launcher)
[LG Optimus G Pro] dginsd:
Can you guys post some screenies of your home screen and what settings you used. I did this work around a few days ago and my launcher screens came out all screwie especially any custom icons or widgets changed in nova or holo launcher. For example a email icon would be oversized but only 1/4th of the icon would be displayed same for widgets
[LG Optimus G Pro] Clienterror:
Download and flash the multi dpi play store from the apps and games section of xda, I use the inverted one.

---------- Post added at 01:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 AM ----------

Also to OP you know all you need to do is use a file explorer that uses root to navigate to /system/build.prop open it in a text editor mode and change the dpi to whatever. Just really seems like the long way to download 3 apps when you can do it with 1 and learn a little about Android in the process ;)
[LG Optimus G Pro] 1Zero3forlife:
Yeah, this is way too complicated for a 30 second process really. Just edit the stock build prop and reboot, all done.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ricco333:
Yes but then your LG camera does not line up properly with the new dpi, if you don't care about the camera then yes editing the build prop is all is needed. I have set mine to 400 dpi and the xposed module works great.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LifeMau5:
Hello.

So this is my problem.

I'm trying to flash the PAC Man ROM then flash Siyah Kernel v6.01 Beta 5 version, then flash on dual-boot options MIUI v5 version, and the same kernel, everything through CWM. When I reboot my phone to primary rom I get the SAMSUNG Galaxy S II logo next Siyah Kernel logo and then black screen :( When I try to boot secondary rom ( MIUI ) I get the MIUI logo and the startup sound but the sound is cut off and then I stuck on this logo :( I saw at youtube when one guy flash AOKP and MIUI together on dual-boot on siyah kernel too, but I can't :( Can you help me ? Please.

Sorry for bad English I'm from Poland.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hopper8:
How old was the video that you watched? The problem is due to siyah not being updated for the new Mali drivers. These are required to boot PACMan. If the video was a little older, it's likely these new drivers hadn't made it into PACMan yet, and hence Siyah booted it up.

I can't tell you if MIUI is compatible with this, but try dorimanx kernel. It's originally based on siyah kernel and is capable of dual-booting. I only can't tell you if it will work with MIUI as I've never flashed MIUI. There are two versions of the kernel, the 8.xx branch and the 9.xx branch. Read up on which one you'll need for MIUI, although I can tell you that both the 8.xx and 9.xx branch will boot PACMan.

Edit: and your English is great, don't stress :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LifeMau5:
Yeah, it works :) I just flash Dorimanx 8.35 and I have worked MIUI on primary rom and PAC Man on secondary. I just wanted to test MIUI but its no problem right now :) And the video was made on ICS Siyah :)

Huh, thanks :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JasSingh93:
The other day, I was trying to navigate in my car using Google maps. Only the find that the direction pointer was always pointing either north or east, or somewhere in between. So I kept thinking I was going the wrong way!

I then downloaded a compass app and the exact same thing happens.

I'm not sure if it's because I'm using a custom rom, viperone 1.2.1, but is anyone else experiencing a similar problem? And should I try running an RUU to see if that solves it?

Or should I be contacting my phone provider and ask for repair/replacement?

Thanks in advance for any help!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tooshortname:
Hi!

[Bad English Alert]

I bought Galaxy S4 two weeks ago and everything was fine. But then I've got some troubles: phone could not find mobile network. But this topic not about this. In a few days after this, I notice that time goes faster. I set the correct time (15:00 for example), and within half an hour noticed that time goes forward like 2 hours (17:00, but real time was 15:00).

Then I start stopwatch at my Galaxy Note and Galaxy S4. Four hours later I looked at stopwatches and time was equally at them. More interesting, that time at clock on Galaxy S4 was right too.

Then I did the same thing, but put Galaxy S4 in sleep mode. And S4's stopwatch goes forward!!

Just look video I made: [YOUTUBE]Xi8qlPR4Syg[/YOUTUBE]

How can it be even possible? What wrong with my Galaxy S4?

P.S: Sorry for my English.

when ive done that than i want to install a v4.2.2 version android for here, with good battery and performance, because the phone is slow and she only has 10 apps?

im well known with odin and CWM, have a SG4 myself

but this ive never seen? can someone help me on the problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
you need to have a 2.3 6 bootloader for it to work , so either change ROM or just the Boot loader, so suggest you head on to My Android Collections, rescue recovery kits section and use Odin3 to flash a upgrade kit, preferably i9000 Upgrade or Downgrade to GingerBread 2.3.6 ROM JVU + Root with a 512 Pit File (repartition Ticked) Ideal base for upgrading to ICS and J.Bean.

But before you do this backup your contacts, sms, images etc ( that is If you want them, so many apps and google can do that) or simply mount USB sotage and copy the entire Internal SD card, so you can use what you need later. Also Backup your efs folder.

The above ROM, already has root and CWM , so you can flash any ICS or JB ROM, best to upgrade to ICS and than to Jelly bean such that you won't have IMEI errors.

Hope you know what you need to do before flashing ROM

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moony22:
Hello, I have an xperia miro that I rooted recently. I had no idea about the /EFS folder, and what it did then, so I did not back it up.

Now I am going to install a custom rom (gimlo), I looked at what I should backup. I found out that I should backup the /EFS folder, and so I looked for it, using root file explorer, and nope, it was not there. I tried a few tools, and they did not work.

I then dialed *#06#, and it gave me an IMEI number. This looked to be working fine. I have been using the phone for ages, and not noticed any major network issues.

So now I am wondering, I don't have a /EFS folder, but everything seems to be working fine and I apparently have an IMEI number. So, what do I do?

Do I just install a custom rom and hope that everything will be working after? I can't backup something that doesn't exist.

I would appreciate some help with this issue, Thanks.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] drewmey:
I had a couple questions about charging...

1. I forget what the exact terminology is but I believe the tablet charges at 1.3 amps(?). Is it bad if I use my Samsung GS3 charger that is 2 amps? Or my standard car charger? Mainly I am concerned about battery life in the long run, especially since I can't pop this one out like in my GS3.

2. Second, I am curious about wireless charging. I don't really care if it is fast or slow. I mainly want to know if there are an long term negatives like the battery wearing out faster than using a regular charger?

3. If anyone has any experience or knowledge with wireless chargers, I am looking to hear a couple recommendations so I can do some research about which one I would likely get.

Thanks for any help advice!
[General Questions and Answers] crumdub12:
A Chairde

I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have heard there are Rooting methods on Android devices not involving third party software on the device, could you tell me what they are, and what phones support them. I have read the XDA Developers book, and the closest I have come is the Google Nexus phone on Chapter 8, Unlockable device, but still needs to load Busybox APK, and SuperUser binaries.

This question revolves around sound forensic techniques, I believe XRY load tools into RAM when using physical extraction.

Any help / pointers would be greatly appreciated
[General Questions and Answers] soupmagnet:
By default, Android doesn't have the ability to substitute the current user for the root user, which is why the 'su' binary has to be installed. By adding a particular line to '/data/local.prop', you can trick the ADB into thinking it's communicating with an emulator, which would temporarily give the ADB elevated permissions, but most of the techniques needed to do so require other binaries that Android doesn't have by default, hence the need for Busybox.

XRY physical extraction, on the other hand, doesn't communicate with Android at all, so there are no "root" permissions to be gained. It relies more on very low level communication with the hardware itself and extracting raw data (i.e. ones and zeros). Highly specialized software would then be needed to translate that data into a more human readable format.

So, to answer your question...

As far as I'm aware, there is no way to achieve permanent "root" permissions on Android without (at the very minimum) installing the 'su' binary.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chrono_Tata:
Wait, do you mean you deleted your custom ringtones or you deleted all the default Android ringtones? I don't think you could do the latter without root.

Anyway if you are talking about the default ringtones, you could ask someone else with a stock (or based on stock) Android ROM to copy the folder and send it to you I guess. Another option would be to non-wipe reflash your current ROM to get all the system files back.

Hello everyone, I have a serious problem. I use my GT-i9300 international version with CM10.1. so far, so good. The problem started after I flashed omega rom 46.1 (4.2.2) and once a 5-6 hours the signal dropped dead. I thought it was modem Incompatibility, so I flased different kind of modems + RIL. nothing helped so I did a nandroid restore back to cm10.1. Unfortunately, the problem did not disapear. every once in a while, every day, the phone suddenly lose signal.sometimes it comeback to life by itself, or I reboot the phone and the signal is back. I have tried different modems, this time no RIL (cuz of cm10.1) , and nothing have changed. I just want to say that I do have the correct IMEI number. I flashed Ariza patch and it didn't help.

Is this a carrier problem ? because 6 months earlier with the same carrier -had no problems.
