1. Settings.

2. System

3. About

4. Tap Build Number 10 times, until you are a developer.

5. System - Developer options

6. Drawing - Smallest Width #.

There are several guides on which DPI settings to use if you search, but I prefer around 600-640 to take advantage of the big screen. I hope this guide is helpful for some of you who weren't aware of this option. :highfive:
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] bloodydawn01:
Ok but the notification tray and toggles are so big because seems to be unnafected by DPI change.

I set my on 485 dpi Honor Note 10 value. Yeah to bad that notification tray and toggles are still big and don't change. It also resets after reboot.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] omniphil:
Doesn't this also mess up the app icons?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jeradjohnso:
Yes, seems like we're stuck with that regardless of the setting.

600 it quite small on the eyes but looks good for work space for sure.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jeradjohnso:
What DPI do you like? Lower?

I noticed today that I hadn't set the sizes in Display Settings first, to a smaller font, and then in developer options the DPI. The smaller font made a big difference, but is easy to overlook. I'm at 600 now, and everything works and looks fine. :cyclops:
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jutley:
I like 600 too as it sets it to tablet mode and since we are in tablet territory on screen size why not.

My dpi change keeps resetting back to default... How do I stop this from happening?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jeradjohnso:
It will reset every time you reboot the device. Also when you change the display settings it may revert back to normal.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Moandal:
Because even with Display Size at it's smallest setting it's still pretty big.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Moandal:
Definitely not! I keep the font at large, but set the screen width at 540, which is good for me.

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] ajsmsg78:
This is where Huawei neuteres Android. Change the smallest width setting and it is reset every time you restart the phone. The Android System and some of the SystemUI elements don't even change when setting a higher number. Once you're rooted you're better off editing the build.prop in vendor and adding the qemu.sf.lcd_density=xxx line in to get everything to change like it's supposed to. Be careful not to go too low on the density or else EMUI glitches out to the point where your lockscreen will no longer function. It's one of the things about EMUI that really irks me and instead of Huawei fixing the issue they just seem to ignore it. That and not being able to move the wifi and data icons to the right where they should be.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] n1tro:
We need root soon. Changing the width in developers options messes with some apps. Also, the navigation bar at the bottom doesn't change which blocks the exit button in my trading app. Quite annoying.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jeradjohnso:
How do you edit that value? Developer options?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] ajsmsg78:
Yeah, developer options under Smallest Width, increase the number until you hit your desired DPI.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] apkapkapk:
Hey guys, I've been thinking of getting this phone but after trying it out at a store and realizing that the navigation buttons and notification doesn't change size, I'm a lot more hesitant to get the phone. Is it possible to change the sizes of them? Any luck using ADB to change the lcd.density? According to this other post in the Mate 10 forums https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=76106073&postcount=32 it's possible. They did edit the build prop directly though. Not sure if this is able to be edited through ADB so no root is required.

Would appreciate any answers to this! Thank you!
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] seelinkit:
whats the default value again?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] apkapkapk:
That's a good question... I have no idea. We'll need to find out from someone who has root on his Mate 20 X.

These are the settings I tried with the corresponding DPI.

280 <=> 617 (Themes Text Style does not work)

320 <=> 540

360 <=> 480

400 <=> 432

My phone attempts to boot, but just spins. Until the battery dies. Plug it in, hold power / volume plus, skips attempting to go into recovery/fastboot and just spins the red dot loading. Goes nowhere.

Any suggestions?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] mkurzum:
Try holding power and volume up and down at the same time to get into fastboot. Just volume up doesn't work on my phone I have to do both up and down with power.

Also there's a bootfix.zip to flash to fix that bootloop, I don't have the direct link, but look around these forums.

Goodluck

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] KooKlique:
Hello fellas(and ladies)

I have a Samsung Galaxy S9, from t-mobile, dark blue. I've locked myself out of the device, and I have a friend that is going to help me get it back working. In order for him to be able to help me, he needs to know the model number. I know it's a SM-G960.. but how do I determine the exact model (i.e. sm-g960f, sm-g960e, etc). I'm unable to login to the phone so I cant check it like that, and the back cover is sealed on there as you know unless you have the tools to remove the cover (which I don't). Is there another way to find out which model it is, like download mode or recovery mode or something? Thanks for taking the time to read this, and for your advice.

Edit- US Model

Well one thing you can do is reset your Google password on a computer then try to login again after 24 hours. Surely you have a recovery email address which you can use?

This is Samsung's instructions on what to do:

It seems dodgy to me that you posted a topic pretty much asking the same thing about a month ago regarding a totally different phone here - https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j7/help/galaxy-j7-g-oogle-verification-issue-t3852720/

FRP is there to prevent lost/stolen phones from being used, if you've bought a phone that is FRP locked you should take it up with the seller. Not try to break the lock yourself!

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] xantiagreen:
Hi all, I have been a fan of HTC since the Hero but in the last week my new phone which I have owned for nearly a year HTC U11 64gb had a fight with the car door and lost. Lines running down all colours so cannot see any apps or able to answer the phone when it rings I can unlock the phone as I have fingerprint setup but do not have USB debug activated. HTC have advised £120 plus any additional parts that may be required if I don not want to go ahead I have to pay a £27 charge for them examining the phone, but prior to even looking at the phone they will restore to factory.;

Is there any way I can get all my personal stuff off photos videos mainly and documents, when I connect the phone to PC it bongs once but there is nothing in My Computer, my knowledge of computing is very limited so need help please.

Also will the HTC U11 life screen connect onto the board for me to gain access and copy what i need and back up the phone, the U11 Life connector looks the and I can buy the screen for under £22 delivered where the U11 5.5" is coming in at £55.

Hope you tech guys can help.

Cheers

You can use the displayport function: connect an usbC-hdmi adapter (10-20€) and with a Bluetooth mouse you will can do a backup.

There are also some adb commands to copy from device to pc what you need. You can Google those commands.

[Moto G6 Questions & Answers] reiffleman:
I'm going to be ditching my Samsung S7 Edge for a Moto G6 shortly. I can pick up the 32Gb / 3Gb version for $200, or get the 64Gb/4Gb from Amazon for $300. 32 G isn't enough storage, but I can pick up a 64 Gb or 128 Gb SD card for much less than the $100 difference in price. Is the jump from 3G -> 4G in RAM worth it? I'd also be getting all the Amazon apps preloaded - whether I want them or not. I'm thinking I'd be better off with the standard version, and just adding storage myself, but thought I'd see if there are reasons to go the other route.

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] MONRCS:
Another bug i noticed is the OTG. I noticed that there is a limit in terms for power draw a USB-C OTG device can receive from the USB-C port of the Mate 20 Pro. USB Power automatically shutsdown depending on a certain current draw and the scenario is somewhat random. This error has been persistent until now with the current version of the F/W (.126)

Although from the phone notification, "Supplying power to the connected device over USB" is present, you will notice from the LED indicator of device attached to the USB port shuts down right after you plug it. If you attempt to re-plug it, usb power is randomly restored.

I am using a USB-C usb hub with HDMI port as the OTG device. I tested this device with another phone (P10, Samsung, etc), power is stable.

Although at first the connection failed (tv screen showing red stripes and intermittently switching to black screen) and I had to change hdmi cable.

[Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers] JOStanbery:
Hey guys.

With an unlocked bootloader, I've flashed a few different Project Treble ROMs/GSIs, but my SIM card was not recognized on any of them. The ROMs I've tried are Ressurection Remix, LineageOS, Havoc-OS, and PixelDust. On all of them, wifi and pretty much everything else worked fine, but I could not get my SIM card to be detected at all. I've tried both Oreo and Pie versions fresh after going to (bootloader-unlocked) stock by flashing to the global firmware. I've tried both before and after installing the factory 9.0 Pie OTA update.

Among the other things I've tried to fix the problem:

Flash the system image to slots A and/or B, try my SIM in both SIM slots, restore my TWRP-backed up modem & EFS partitions, wiped data partition, rebooting, toggling airplane mode, replacing SIM with the phone on, and few other suggestions (I can't currently remember) on the forums.

I'm currently back on stock, so I have a working phone, but I'd very much like to be on a different ROM if I can. My main reason is to be able to use the various ROM-maker settings and tweaks. I was using GravityBox and other Xposed modules back on Oreo, but there is not yet working Xposed on Pie, and I prefer to stay on up-to-date software.

If anyone has figured this out, they'll have my extreme gratitude.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] OP6TNewb:
Hi there. I am a a bit of a root-moron and have bricked my brand new Oneplus 6T while rooting it. Now I am stuck in a bootloop that ONLY cycles through the fastboot.

I can no longer enter into recovery mode from fastboot.

I can not use the MSM Download tool because the phone will not go into MSM Mode. Whenever I connect to the USB the phone automatically “wakes up” and immediately goes into fastboot.

When I hold the power button + volume up it just cycles through all the fastboot options and when it does eventually power down / screen goes black, it immediately powers back up and does the exact same thing.

So I simply cant get into MSM mode or recovery mode. I don’t know what to do and fear that the phone may be totally f#cked.

I welcome assistance from anyone here who actually knows what they are doing vs me who knows close to nothing. Help please!
