[Verizon LG G3] monochrome83:
Main reason is that its set for 640 stock, which makes the icons much bigger, but also plays with other things as well. The reasons i wanted to change it were for some of my games looked funny, and trying to run XDA on it was doing some annoying overlap thing. Both were fixed by the change to 540.
[Verizon LG G3] Chilidog:
I just tried it wow it changes everything
[Verizon LG G3] Rodeojones:
The Xposed module called App Settings also allows you to change dpi, but instead of changing it system wide you can change it on a per app basis. It's very handy if you're only looking to tweak certain things.
[Verizon LG G3] Chilidog:
Since I changed dpi am I not gonna get updates on my apps now from the play store?

Edit: Nevermind I found a dpi faker in xposed.
[Verizon LG G3] monochrome83:
It really does, im never going back lol
[Verizon LG G3] calebv2:
I use an xposed module called "play store fixes" you can fake out the play store into thinking your using a normal dpi when really your not.

Thanks for this. 550 dpi works perfect.

My stock widgets look fine with 550 dpi.
[Verizon LG G3] tech_head:
If you are using Xposed, your aren't going to get updates.

Xposed changes the framework and a change in the framework blocks OTA updates.

You updates will now fail even if they download.

If you root and install Xposed, don't attempt to take updates until you return to stock.
[Verizon LG G3] mwebb34:
My DPI is 520 and its running perfect.

Pac-man ROM 4.4.4
[Verizon LG G3] Fuse8499:
I'm on a stock ROM and the OP said below 540 will cause force closes. I'm gonna take his word for it. 540 is more than fine and don't really wanna waste time making a nandroid right now.
[Verizon LG G3] Nickyro23:
He was talking about app updates in the play store, not ota system updates. He even mentioned "play store"...
[Verizon LG G3] epidenimus:
Running JasmineROM 6.0.1 and it's working just fine at 540 DPI, but I am looking to go lower. I've tried 480, but got SytemUI crashes, as the OP indicated.

Does the aforementioned DPI threshold of 540 apply to stock-based ROMs only? How are some of you getting < 540?

I have not yet installed Xposed; my limited understanding of that is that allows for adjustment on a per-app basis. Would going this route allow for lower global DPI settings, too?

Thanks!
[Verizon LG G3] epidenimus:
It appears that the threshold is with stock-based ROMs only--at least 23C and Jasmine ROM 6, respectively.

I am now running CyanideL (AOSP) at 480 DPI without issue.​

Looks like a lot has happened since I last played with Xposed. It now has lots of impressive hacks to own your stock-based ROM, not just DPI and other stuff. I admit that I grew tired of the Recovery reboot--Wipe Caches--Nandroid backup--Reboot and wait--Install Changes-Reboot cycle every time that I applied a change.

It pisses me off that I lose the fantastic camera because LG has made the drivers proprietary and also needs the whole F-ing proprietary framework to make it run, but I suppose I'll get over it for a ROM where I don't feel like it's fighting me on everything that I want to do.​

Yes, I just answered my own post. Because I'm both helpful and kind of egomaniacal like that.
[Verizon LG G3] KGroder:
Sorry i need clarification. I am stock lollipop rooted and changed dpi to 550. How will i get app updates without xposed.

Not sure what you're asking here.... Please clarify your request for clarification.

Double Tap 2 wake and other things

Hi all,

I recently purchased an SAMSUNG galaxy s5 (snapdragon) and installed KT kernel just to get double tap to wake. Everything worked fine with the installation except one thing...there are many options in KTweaker related to how to sleep or wake your phone but none of them works at all.

I donna what's the purpose of specifying those tweakes if they don't work??? And you, Ktoonsez are saying this will drain S5-s battery in comparison to LG G3??? Are you kiddin''....SUPERAMOLED doesn't drain battery so i think this is just an excuse as you're not able to implement this on S5 too as you already did on S4....shame it!!!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Knicat:
Hi everyone. After changing the usb pin of my phone, the touch screen started doing some weirds things. Sliding among desktops is rather laggy. Pressing an icon is not enough to get the app (or whatever) to work, a second attemp is neccesary in any other part of the screen in order to make it happen. The physical buttons seems to be working fine so far.

In further investigations it seems like pressing on the screen is well detected, since i can press an icon and move it around a desktop. But unpressing anything goes undetected.

I see no physical damage on the screen or the flex that connects it to the motherboard. This is not an issue related to any especific rom or kernel since i tried with a couple of them before getting to this point. Is there any app that allows me to monitor what part of the screen is being touch?

Can this be resolved by a firmware update of any kind of just a hardware replacement?

Cheers
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BreakingVZW:
Title basically says it all. This should be a simple task but for the life of me I cannot find how to change the default download location to external storage. Honestly it should be as simple as changing storage options but LG in their infinite wisdom decided to make it either convoluted as hell or something that isn't even possible.

Okay, I've tried the download2sd xposed module and it seemed to be fairly simple and straightforward to change where I wanted my downloaded files to go... BUT when I download files that sound like orrents (XD) my file downloader of choice says I cannot locate the file. So obviously download2sd needs a certain path structure that LG doesn't use.

Can anyone shed some light on any possible solution? I've searched the threads and there are people asking about other issues but not this specific issue. Yes I CAN just manually move the files to my sd card after downloading them but that kind of defeats the purpose of not using the internal drive for this process anymore. The fact we can't just change preferred download location to external storage is derp as hell.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redduc900:
The only way I know of is by using the default browser--> Settings--> Advanced--> "Select download storage", and change it to the SD card.

I am referring specifically to a PDF I tried to download as an experiment. It was about 12 MG and it reduced the internal storage but not the external storage amount.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thriftynomad:
Hello all,

Has anyone been able to get apps from multiple regions working on their Fire TV? I have been able to change locations and download apps but when I switch between regions (by deactivating my account and activating a new one), all apps fail saying 'App Not Owned' and they quit.

If I leave the 'App Not Owned' dialog up long enough, it changes to 'Authorization Expired - The time to authorize the user has expired' so I'm assuming Amazon is checking the titles against the logged-in user account.

I tried to install the app as one user, then pull the APK from the device using adb and then sideload the APK once I changed regions and was logged in as a different user. That didn't help.

Currently, I have it working so that I just deactivate and reactivate my accounts and the apps stay in place without losing my settings. Just a bit of a pain in the butt when I want to switch from ESPN (US) to Zattoo (Germany) or similar.

I

Does anyone have any thoughts as to how to get this working? I have multiple Fires (including rooted ones) that I can use to test.

HI,

I have just one account (US account) but I'm in Ireland. I'm using a Smart DNS. I have downloaded Apss to the cloud on amazon.com by changing my device country settings which I think you've done and works fine.

e.g. US account, downloaded TVplayer (UK App), works fine and US Netflix account etc also work. I am not switching my accounts on the Fire TV. Maybe it's the smart DNS is the difference.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyder:
The apps get your location from the IP address. You didn't mention anything about changing that, so that is why it's not working for you.

No, I have a Smart DNS provider and have no problems getting apps from any region to work. It's just that in order to use apps from multiple regions (WatchESPN from the Amazon US store and BBC iPlayer from the UK store), I have to log out of my Amazon account and into a different account.

Was just hoping to find some way to have these apps on the same homescreen and be able to use them without changing accounts. My Fire TV is rooted if that helps.

MP3 randomly playing, can only be silenced with phone ringer (not media) volume.

Awesome ROM so far, came back to it after a few months on SlimKat where the battery life progressively got worse.

Strange issue - for the past two days, at 10.50am each day, an MP3 file stored on my 64GB SD card has started playing, completely by itself. I check running apps and my music app is not open, I go to recent programs and swipe them all closed, and the track keeps playing. I try to lower the media volume, nothing happens, but I can silence it by putting the phone ringer on silent. The only way to stop it playing is by rebooting the phone.

I've gone into recovery and wiped cache & Dalvik cache. Can't think of anything else. Not sure if it's related to the issue others are having where even if I select 'expanded' for the volumes display screen, I only ever see one floating volume bar for media at the very top of the screen. To change alarm and ringer volumes I need to go to Settings/Sound/Volumes and change from there.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshterrell805:
My appologies if this has been asked before. I spent well over ten minutes googling and searching this site.. I'm new to custom ROMs so I may not be phrasing my search queries optimally.

Why isn't it possible to unlock a locked bootloader that "can't be unlocked"?

From my understanding, the bootloader loads the kernel into memory. Something else bootloader-agnostic loads the bootloader into memory (phone's equivalent of BIOS?).

(This is applicable to many more devices than the i535, but for context:)

I've done some reading for the i535 (Verizon S3) which states that after one has taken the 4.3 OTA, there is no flashing the bootloader (the upgraded ODIN won't allow it).

However, one can successfully root after 4.3.

So this gets me thinking...it was a software change which disabled the ability to flash the bootloader...Specifically a software update to ODIN. The great part about software is that it can be modified relatively easily (compared with hardware).

I'm curious why it's not possible to, with root privilidges, do a disk dump (dd) to the correct device files, or swap out the ODIN binaries with older versions.

Is it not possible to unlock a locked bootloader that's "not possible to unlock" OR has no one spent adequate time figuring out the solution?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshterrell805:
I tried doing a dd of aboot.mbn to the respective device file...got a hard brick again that I'll have to fix with the sdcard trick... guessing mbn isn't a disk image as I hypothesized.

Not sure if it's because of the dumping of aboot.mbn itself (couldn't find a good article describing the mbn file format), or if aboot booted fine but it conflicted with some other parts of the system.

Anyway, I'm still very curious to know from some likely much more experienced android hackers than I what the problem is with doing this sort of thing. Obviously this was a very blunt and imprecise try, but I figure someone out there with much greater knowledge of android than I could probably do it.

Edit: hard brick undone. I think I have a great opportunity to help figure this "unlockable bootloader" stuff out because of the fact that I can undo hard-bricks very easily (as long as my phone won't boot, I can get it to boot off of the sdcard). If there's any developers out there that have some ideas, please lets try some stuff out.
