[Verizon LG G3] ChiefIlliniwek5:
Ok, we are back up and running! I went through all the steps again going all the way back to the androidbrick tool. This time when the phone boot into miniOS mode and was still on that animation, I hit the power button (something I saw on another post) and it took me to the AAT screen. I had seen a thread about this somewhere and followed those steps to have the phone reboot into the setup wizard and we are all good now! WHEW! The only thing that sucks is throughout this whole process I've lost well over 100 photos of my son :(. Oh well....I saved myself a few hundred bucks. Thanks for all of your help!!

Is there a way to change stock dpi or screen density without root?

Update: adb did the trick. You can get an extra column by changing density from 400 to 460. Keep in mind default is 480.

Here's a link on how to recommended by [MENTION=5856735]hauhauhau7[/MENTION]

I have tried all the main ones on app store they dont change ur dpi found a solution on a oneplus 2 page credits to jutinarora

If you have adb drivers installed, you can just do the following 1. Connect your phone to your PC via USB cable 2. Open command prompt the run the following command "adb shell wm density DPI", where "DPI" should be the number you want. For example, if you want your DPI as 380, the command will be adb shell wm density 380. Reboot just to be sure.

And it worked 380 looks much better

I set my dpi to 380 via adb, it's really nice that you can change that without rooting
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] kosidroid:
so i now rooted my newly oneplus3, so that i can modify build.prop. i changed the ro.sf.lcd_density to 380 but nothing changes after reboot. still everything is way incredibly huge.

i tested to manually modify build.prob, changed via rom toolbox / build.prop editor, le dpi changer... nothing seem to work.

dpi checker says dpi is still 480. build.prob file is modified every time and still got that value after reboot.

any idea?

btw the non rooted method worked, so via adb, but i read its more safe to change in build.prop to prevent scaling issues on some apps...

thanks!

---------- Post added at 07:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:24 AM ----------

nm it works now. i had to do a "adb shell wm density reset" - seems once used that command its treated first and overwrites setting in build.prob.

thanks anyway =)
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] gtg465x:
Anyone try Android Pay after changing the density? I know Android Pay stopped working if you changed the density from the default on the Galaxy S7.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] hasenbein1966:
On my Galaxy Tab S2, for example, I have set the DPI to a reduced 270, which works fine, BUT apps using the camera will have problems!

So, using a global DPI setting is not a really recommendable way.

Much better is to install Xposed (runs just fine on the OP3) and using the module "App settings" in which you can set DPI for individual apps.

Many apps look just fine with the stock DPI, while others are too "big" on the 5.5 inch display and profit from a reduced DPI. Some can even be forced to use the tablet UI with "App Settings".

380 is a really small setting. For Youtube, I would not go below 400 because text gets too small, same with Google+. Habit Browser, on the other hand, shines with 360.

And, with "App Settings", if an app doesn't work with smaller DPI, you can always set it to stock DPI, and all is working perfectly.

Just in case if someone is wondering: When you have set something in "App Settings", you have to restart the device for the settings taking effect; just restarting the app doesn't suffice on Android >5.0.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] jjorloff1:
I changed my OP3 to 400 dpi without root by following this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1p5T64lLqbE

Considering that the physical dpi of the device is 401, 400 seemed appropriate, and it looks great.

I did have an issue where when a couple apps needed to request permissions for something (in my case it was Amazon Music Player requesting permissions to write to storage), after I hit accept, it would give me a warning saying "Screen Overlay Detected" prompting me to go to settings. If I didn't go to settings it would cancel my download. I tried disabling the overlay permissions of everything but that didn't help. I ended up just resetting all app permissions and then going in and granting storage to Amazon Music (and any other apps I expected needed it) in the app permissions settings, and after a restart I haven't encountered the warning since then.

Overall I'm very pleased with the adjusted dpi, and I'm disappointed that they didn't use this dpi by default (or at least provide some scaling options in display settings).

Hi all members of xda, sorry for my bad english, i will try to explain what exactly is happening with my phone.

I power it on, it`s vibrating and appear "Samsung Galaxy S5........POWERED by android", and that`s all, it continuously restarts itself until i remove the battery.

I can`t enter in recovery mode, it`s restarting from there continuously too... In download mode i can enter, and there at PRODUCT NAME it says is SM-G901F, but under the battery is SM-G900F.

In download Mode this is all what it says: "ODIN MODE (HIGH SPEED)

Product Name: SM-G901F

Current Binary: Samsung Official

System status: Custom

REACTIVATION LOCK: OFF

Knox Warranty Void: 0x0

Qualcomm Secureboot: ENABLE (CSB)

RP SWREV: S1, T1, R1, A1, P1

Secure Download: ENABLE

UDC START"

This is all.

So, i think that boy from who i bought the phone tryed to root it or flash it with another rom?

Can anyone help me please? Thank you.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
What it says the model number is when in download mode is what needs to be believed. There seems to be a lot of this lately.....devices being marketed/sold as the more popular 900F variant when they are not.

You have to get the correct firmware from sammobile or samsung-updates and flash it with odin. I doubt it's the person who sold it to you as apparently nothing can change the info in download mode, and the sticker says something else. The seller may have tried to flash a 900F firmware, but that is probably all he's guilty of......

Try flashing this........

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24399994186369572

It IS for the 901F, but it's what the hosting website calls a 'repair' firmware.

So it is supplied as separate files that have to be loaded into their corresponding 'slots' within Odin. I'm guessing it will be unbranded too. But being a repair firmware, it stands a better chance of successfully flashing and booting than a normal firmware.

So far, everything you've tried would have put your device back to stock and wouldn't have affected knox.....

Knox is regularly used by Samsung to assess whether your device receives a warranty repair. As long as knox remains at 0x0 (as seen in download mode) your warranty is intact.....

Going custom is your only other option and that will trip knox and void your warranty. I can suggest how you can go custom, but it's up to you whether you want to torpedo your warranty when the ability to flash your device successfully is in question.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kdio:
Hi Guys

You two have already done so much that got me dizzy :D .. Let me start apologizing if I'm repeating what you already covered.

My suggestion would be starting from scratch using a Sammobile firmware. At the begining of the thread you already tried that but mentioned T-Mobile ... odd as the G901F should be just International with no brand relation as GsmArena tells me

As so, I would suggest the following:

a) From Sammobile, select a Marshmallow firmware not T-Mobile related, that seems appropriate for you.

b) To speed up your download use [TOOL] SamFirm - Samsung firmware downloader & checker. Just provide Model+Region and it will find you the newer firmware available. Please, before download, check the boxes: CRC32 & Decrypt

c) Flash the above using the lastest Odin v3.11.1

- Open Odin

- Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)

- Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

- Add the firmware file downloaded to AP / PDA box section

- Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked

- Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes

- The device shall reboot and restart.

This will overwrite Modem + Bootloader + Recovery + System

I will be waiting for your reply.

Good luck and again, sorry if I'm repetitive.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
All sound advice [MENTION=2147860]Kdio[/MENTION] but in this case, I'm wondering if a simple partition overwrite will be enough......

No matter what he flashes, something is preventing a successful recovery or OS boot, which tells me that part of the software that needs to be erased simply isn't being erased. I think what he needs to do is a complete format and repartition, but that involves the use of a pit file, and if it were my device, I wouldn't be considering that until I was positive that I knew what variant I had (900F or 901F)......

The SOC and GPU are both different/upgraded.....

http://i.imgur.com/rVnFwJM.jpg
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kdio:
Agreed [MENTION=4806698]keithross39[/MENTION]

I get your point. I just wonder if something onto T-Mobile firmware could be the culprit. By flashing an international one we could discard this possibility and move on to the infamous PIT thingy :eek:

I own a SM-G900M (two indeed -- I love it so much :p) and as soon as we make this final test, I may pull some strings and bring in some 901F chefs to try to help us.

What do you think ?

Cheers.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
Sounds worth a try.....also flashing MM is something he hasn't tried yet.....

As I advised, I'd really not be trying a pit just yet, I think it could make things worse than they are at the moment....

And by all means pull them strings :):) the more help we get on this thread the better.....
