[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] antharestm:
Can someone pls tell me how can i make let's say Resurrection Remix look like SlimKAT ? (interface is smaller and icons are small)
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] black87:
Both look similar as both are AOSP rom
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] iceyhotguy:
The difference is that by default SlimKAT has a lower DPI than other AOSP ROMs.

All AOSP ROMs run on 240 DPI while SlimKAT comes on 180.

All you need to do is edit build.prop file in /system folder

In build.prop you need to find and alter this line

ro.sf.lcd_density=240​

Just find and change the value of 240 to 180 (or 160,170,190,200 etc, larger value, larger icons but don't go too low, stick to 150 minimum)

Manual steps, if you need them...

Follow these steps, and this applies to all ROMs,

1. Install a Root Explorer. I'll be using ES Explorer.

2. Give it root permission to access the Root Explorer mode.

View attachment 2544752

3. Click the Root Explorer to get the following menu, and choose "MOUNT R/W" to mount /system partition in read/write mode.

View attachment 2544753View attachment 2544754

4. Navigate to /system folder to find build.prop

View attachment 2544755

5. Copy and paste it somewhere as a backup

Now you have two options, either Open and Edit it right there or copy build.prop to your PC and edit it using any utility like Notepad++.

If you use your PC to edit the file, you will have to copy and overwrite the original file with rw--r--r-- permissions (can be found by selecting build.prop in ES and selecting it's properties).

NOTE: /system will go back to Read only mode after each reboot, if you get any error unable to edit/copy build.prop you probably haven't mounted the /system partition as R/W.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] antharestm:
Thanx alot for the info ! can u pls tell how do i change the icons size ?
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] iceyhotguy:
The DPI will automatically change the icons size unless the launcher you are on has it's own settings for it.

The Google Launcher (or KitKat launchers) are known to make the icons blurry on too low DPI, and still keep the icons a little big.

Some launchers like Next Launcher have inbuilt settings for editing icons, like changing their display size.

Other launchers make the icons smaller when you increase the grid-size for the home-screen and the app-drawer

There is no system mod that I know of that makes your icons smaller, the DPI makes room for more icons to fit in and then it's upto the launcher to use it.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] antharestm:
Thank you very much ! I took your advice and installed Nova Launcher.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] mrclonkey:
I've been just about everywhere trying to get an answer to this, but no joy so far. I have just bought an O2 XDA Mini S PDA (ROM 2.21.4.1 WWE) running Windows Mobile 5 and a BT77 GPS receiver from Ebay. The problem is I can't get them to pair via bluetooth - this is what happens:

1. the XDA detects "BT GPS" (with a question mark icon)

2. the setup process invites me to select this device

3. I am asked for the "0000" access code

4. I then select "Serial Port" service (the only option)

5. Moving on to COM Ports tab - I create a new Outgoing Port and allocate it to COM 6 or 7 (I've tried both)

I've tried, methodically, every permutation available via the setup facility(secure/insecure pairing via check box, deletion and reset of XDA and GPS in between each try, COM 6/COM 7, etc.), but the GPS device does not pair (i.e. GPS BT indicator continues to flash every 3 seconds or so).

I know that the BT77 is OK because I've had it working nicely in Autoroute 2005 with a BT dongle in my laptop. Incidentally, I have TomTom Navigator 5.21 installed on the XDA.

I've scoured the online forums for an answer to what seems to be not an uncommon problem, but I can't find one. Is there perhaps a utility to fix this or a registry setting which can be changed maybe - I'm completely stumped!!! Can anyone help.............please?

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] djawal:
i am having the same problem... tried installing BTH but that program does not even bother to show up

:?:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] treo6004ling:
I guess the com 6/7 is unavailable. In my o2 mini with windows mobile 2003, i use com8 to pair, and working perfect. Try some software, such as gps viewer, to indicate the available com.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] djawal:
okay.. thanks.. will try now
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] mrclonkey:
sorted!!

I've found out how to fix this, but I had to buy GPSDash to do it (you may not if you can get a free version):

To get XDA to pair with BT77 via bluetooth -

1. use XDA bluetooth settings to set "BT GPS" to use COM7 - the BT77 will not pair by doing this;

2. install GPSDash2 (I did it by copying CAB file to memory card touching it with stylus in File Explorer or Total Commander 2 or and change settings of GPSDash to use COM7 (this is a handy app, but it's really

there to enable TomTom to find BT77 - not sure HOW it works, but who cares!!);

3. Run TomTom and configure GPS settings to use "Other GPS" and COM0;

4. find navigator.cfg (installed in \Program Files\Navigator) and copy it to PC;

5. using Ultraedit (hex editor),change 0 in "COM0" to 7 and then overwrite navigator.cfg on phone with

new version;

6. Run TomTom - it should pair with the BT77

Like I said, I bought a copy of GPSDash for a few quid - it's a nice little app to have for SatNav anyway, but you might be able to get a trial version or something - you don't have to run it or have it sat in memory for the GPS to pair, but it being there makes all the difference!!

Hope this sorts it for you

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] djawal:
i, as an electronics engineer, have experienced that if anything can go wrong it will go wrong. thats exactly what happened with my installation of ttn5 n pairing of bt77.

now i can proudly say that i have done it and its working fine except for the POIs which i deleted myself. anyway, while pairing the bt77, i just chose factory reset for ttn5 and it detected the device automatically. but i think the Bluetooth tools are really handy by thus german dude. i havent tried but i think he will answer questions in english, supposedly.

i think i will pass on my knowledge to others so .... ask! 8)

Hey guys,

I have an ATT Galaxy S3 but I recently switched to TMobile. I don't have the sim card yet, hopefully get it tomorrow, but my ATT sim card has been deactivated. Since I need to unlock my phone to use Tmobile, I was looking at some forums and I could do it using the dialpad and pressing *#197328640# and following some steps. But I read that this was possible in only a 4.1.1 ROM?

Right now I have MIUI v5. Do I have to downgrade in order to use the *#197328640# code and unlock?

Cheers!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theramsey3:
Have you ever been on the 4.3 OTA? Or the 4.3 bootloader? If you haven't been on them you can use Odin to go back to 4.1.1 however if you have the 4.3 bootloaders and you try you will certainly have a hard bricked phone that might be recoverable via SD card or you will need a jtag.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kripala:
Hi All,

I'd like to tell you that, LeOpArDx 4.8 version custom rom for Xperia S is superb. Please try it... All the features are working fine..

Most of the features of Xperia Z is ported in this rom ( you can always check the log).

First time i'm using custom rom.. didn't know which and all configurations and options to select while installing the aroma installer,

so selected all ( kitkat based features and xperia z honami based features ) and installed it..

Everything is working fine as of now.. Even the battery performance is also good when compare to stock rom..

This rom includes xposed installer which further gives you the power customising your phone to the maximum extent..

I suggest you guys, its really worth trying...

What i didn't find after installing this rom on my Xperia S

1. NumberPad Keyboard (No other keyboard comes close to it in giving you the best T9 experience on Android)

2. Not able to boot into CWM after installing this rom

Anybody plz suggest me a solution for the above 2 points :(

Hi there,

I got my Moto G from TESCO UK yesterday, so I updated to Kitkat, and i started using it. It was completely ok until now. I tried to launch the PHONE APP (and the PEOPLE APP and HANGOUTS as well) and the apps crash right after i launch them. All of them. Several reboots didnt help. I tried to enter recovery mode to clear cache, but i failed to enter it so the phone turned on again and suddenly it was all working. But now, 1 hour later, it crashed again (all of the 3 apps) and it starts to piss me off.

What do i do please? Anyone experiencing the same?

Probably old news but I couldn't find it on this Moto X forum:

http://goo.gl/ZtLZdN

If you want working exchange email on 4.4 do this (root required)

1) Download the above file, unzip, and copy the two apk's to your phone

2) Use root explorer to navigate to /system/app

3) Rename "Exchange2.apk" to "Exchange2_old.apk" (you'll need to rename this file back to "Exchange2.apk" to accept an OTA)

4) Rename Email.apk to "Email_old.apk" (you'll need to rename this file back to "Email.apk" to accept an OTA)

5) Paste the two apk's you downloaded into the /system/app folder

6) (optional) If you don't want 2 email services running go into Settings>Apps>All and select then Disable "Email" (version 4.4-5) and "Exchange Services" (version 4.4-5)

7) Reboot your phone

Now you can set up Exchange service without it failing to download new messages or draining your battery.

This thread is for users facing difficulties on updating the Superuser app, while running a custom or stock ROM

Most times you might be facing problems like "Singature error". I will give you some instructions on updating Superuser. Here's what you will do:

1. Open Google Play Store and install the "System Apps Installer'' application. It is free and it is compartible with Galaxy Y.

2. Open it and grant superuser permissions to the app.

3. At first, you will see a File Manager. Browse through your sdcard and find the new Superuser app version you have downloaded and you want to install.

4. For example I will install Superuser 3.1.3 . Now find the apk and click it.

5. It will know say "This app already exists. ¿Do you want to overwrite it?

6. Press yes and wait to install.

7. When it's done it will say "¡App installed correctly!

8. Open the new Superuser and update it's binary.

9. You're ready to go.

From now on, if Superuser has ever an update released, you will be able to update it succesfully from the Google Play Store.

Personally tested and working on Evo-x4.2

Get the APKs needed in the attachment below.

P.S. You can use that method too for other apps that you can't update.
