[Android Apps and Games] JBH168:
Since I've been receiving a lot of private messages on how to install the Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint for Tablet apps on non-supported devices, I decided to create this thread that guides you through every single step.

This how-to is meant for people who can't download these apps via the Google Play Store due to device/county restrictions. It's only showing you how to sideload these apps and get them to run on other screen-sized smartphones. The other minimum requirements might still be essential for these apps to run properly.

Official Minimum Requirements:

If you run into problems that aren't directly connected to your device but concerning the apps themselves, please post those into the Microsoft Office for Android Community.

You might want to try to install the apps via the Google Play Store first:

Microsoft Word

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft PowerPoint​

To become a beta tester, please follow the steps on the About page of this Microsoft Office for Android Beta Community.

If you aren't able to Install the apps via the Google Play Store, follow this guide:

Download the apk and OBB files.

Install the apks

Push the *.obb files to data/media/obb or to sdcard/Android/obb into corresponding folders named:

[I]com.microsoft.office.excel[/I]
[I]com.microsoft.office.powerpoint[/I]
[I]com.microsoft.office.word[/I]

Trouble with your obb files?

test the other directory given (one of them should work)

To change the DPI for your entire device, follow these steps:

Go to /system

make a backup of build.prop

open build.prop with any root file editor and enable editing (ES Note Editor)

look for the line that contains this expression:

ro.sf.lcd_density

change the number value to 213 so the line looks like this:

ro.sf.lcd_density=213

(Nexus 7's DPI)

save the build.prop file

reboot

or

Install some Terminal emulator

execute the following commands:

su [I]# superuser access[/I]
wm density 213 [I]# Nexus 7's DPI[/I]
[I]# to revert this change, use this command instead:[/I] wm density reset
