[Sony Xperia 1 III] Yndi:
Thanks for this. Very nice that I can use what I paid for!

One question though: Why set the desity to 630? Quick googling said the density is 643 and according to Google 640 is the goto number:

https://developer.android.com/training/multiscreen/screendensities (go to table 1, a bit above the middle).

With my own eye I cannot see differences between those two settings and maybe there are none, so out of curiosity, why 630?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
You will see a difference in keyboard, try it.

If you can't reproduce it I can show you.

If you're still wondering, here.

Tweak density to your liking.

Lores

Default wm = 420, small = 356 or ~85%.

Hires

Default wm = 640, small = 542 or ~85%

(You can change the wm density to the latter values if you want, I changed them.

Obviously requires root.

I'll also throw in some tasker refresh rate changes.

Very useful for when the device is mounted and I'm driving.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Yndi:
I don't use Gboard and I have no problem with my keyboard, so I'm setting 640.

I have some lag on the smileys in the messages, but I'll take it for now. Want to change this app as well anyway.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kot5nik:
IMPORTANT: This no longer works after the update to Android 12. 'wm size' resets itself to default immediately after you change it. If you know (or at least have an idea) of a possible fix - please reply, so far I'm clueless.

If you have already updated like me you can run 'wm density reset' so your phone looks normal again.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Thanks for the heads up. Will postpone the update for now.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] vivan000:
Yeah that update sucks. Basically it makes display worse than average 1080p phones (upscaled 1080p looks worse than native 1080p).

I've launched different apps (built-in video player is supposed to run at native resolution?) and it always stays at mode 4 (if I set 60 hz in settings then always mode 1).

Is there any way to switch display mode via adb command?

also always returns 1096x2560 regardless of app.

Playing with wm size I've noticed that it tries to keep aspect ratio while decreasing entered resolution to fit into what it believes to be "real" (1096x2560). So 1644x3840 becomes 1096x2560, 2000x1000 becomes 1096x548, 2000x2000 becomes 1096x1096, 2000x4000 becomes 1096x2192... Yet 2000x8000 becomes 1096x2805 (probably caps 8000 to 5120 before resize) and 1096x3840 stays 1096x3840 (but looks really blurry).

Also found "display_size_forced" in settings - global (settings put global display_size_forced) it accepts 1644x3840 but doesn't seem to do anything...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Clae:
Just a thought - the way Creator Mode is worded in Android 11 suggests that it opens 4k mode for any app you add that turns on Creator Mode. Could someone confirm if this is true of not?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
A poke to ask about Android 12 and 4k any more info?

I'm hesitant to upgrade if Android 12 does not support 4k mode...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] BlazingKahn35:
Doesn't work on Android 12
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Yndi:
I run creators mode all the time (as I did on Android 11) and it's not in 4k
[Sony Xperia 1 III] APTXDAVE:
Chiming in my 2cents here. Also confirming it does not work on Android 12.

So far Android 12 is proving a real pain is the ass.

My advice - dont bother - stay on 11 until changes are made or workarounds are resolved
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Meh, I decided that I didn't care enough. If someone can fix this down the road that's great, but for now I'd prefer having Android 12.

I'm more annoyed that google moved the device controls to the quick settings.

Why
[Sony Xperia 1 III] APTXDAVE:
Im still keen for a fix if someone comes across it. A12 has been underwhelming
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
Any update after 6 months? I'm still on A11, has this issue been fixed?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] thatguy222:
I'm on Pixel Experience GSI ROM and you can force 4k in either 60 or 120hz in Settings//Phh Settings//Misc. Looks wild but not really usable and certainly not worth the battery drain. Would be nice to have a quick setting for this.

To clarify, "wild" just means everything looks very small but I didn't notice any difference in the quality of the image.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
This is super simple to do. You can scroll up for my findings and tasker share. Tune it to your likings and connect it to a quick-setting tile and voila.

What Pe+ are you using btw?

This one?

21.3 GB folder on MEGA

17 files and 16 subfolders

[Sony Xperia 1 III] thatguy222:
I am using Ponce's PE+ v414 (June security patch). Very cool that you have one customized for this phone. What's custom about it and do you think you'll make new ones (assuming it's you who built it).

Also, awesome that you created a tasker routine for resolution switching. I will definitely check it out. I admit I didn't read this whole thread, I just noticed the feature on PE+ and that I'd chime in.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] UsernameNotRecognized:
Oh no, I didn't make those. These are the ones I'm aware off but never installed. The last update is a bit old (may). and the lack of instructions...

So you're using a GSI?

https://xdaforums.com/t/gsi-unofficial-12-pixel-experience.4354695/

Maybe I should look in GSI's instead, being so common support is much better. Did you flash A11 firmware or is this no longer necessary? Or maybe different, could you link me to the instructions you used?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] thatguy222:
Yep, that's the GSI I'm using. No need to flash Android 11 first. I went from the latest official 12 firmware to that GSI. I also flashed the latest binaries from Sony's website (fastboot flash oem filename.img) but I have no idea if that was necessary.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FiDra:
Not working on A13 as well, any updates guys?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
No
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
I hope we'll get a working fix one day but I'm losing hope...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] sev7en:
I confirm to.

In the developers option you can change the DPI, I shifted to 630 and it looks fine.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] ragu24:
I tried that to on Pro-I but every time I back out from one app to another it's like it recalibrates the resolution and forces it back.

I reckon that's not the case with you?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
DPI and resolution aren't the same thing.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] FiDra:
riceDroid custom ROM has an option to switch to 4k resolution. You can give it a try if you want something different from stock fw.

I'm using riceDroid with Kirisakura kernel for my daily use. It smooth and lots of customizations.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] jeffreyo:
This seems to work with the app Second Screen too. You just have to reset the size stuff back to default under Settings > Display > 'Display Size and Text' afterwards.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] jeffreyo:
It looks like the phone reports a physical size of 1096x2560 regardless of what is playing. Even with Cinema Pro playback in 4K.

So, whatever Sony is doing, it's probably passing the video through the upscaler while shutting off the upscaling so that it displays in 4K natively?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] phailyoor:
Working on getting this working on the IV on a13 and crossposting here. If anyone knows how to find the maxuiwidth config override that would be useful

[Sony Xperia 1 III] phailyoor:
Made a mod here for the IV: https://xdaforums.com/t/high-resolution-mod-for-xperia-1-iv.4517435/post-88762821

Not sure if it works on III, but probably doesn't hurt to give it a shot.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
It doesn't work, but it's close. You have to replace `0x7f070010` by `0x7f070013` in the public.xml values. Then `wm size 1644x3840; wm density 630` works perfectly!

I was making a Magisk module after I saw your first post but you beat me at it. Anyways, here's mine working for the Xperia 1 III. Note that I'm *not* an expert when it comes to Magisk modules so I don't take *any* responsibility if something wrong happen with your device (it shouldn't since the module doesn't do much, but still, you've been warned).

Edit: works on the Xperia Pro-I as well. Thanks to @ragu24 for testing.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
Anyone tried this on thier xperia 1 iii with a13 and does it work ?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
Yes, me. After flashing the module and rebooting, just do

# wm size 1644x3840
# wm density 630

(in adb or a rooted shell)

It also persists during reboots.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
Oke thanks mate and i have root 😎✌️
[Sony Xperia 1 III] ragu24:
What would it take for it to work on Pro-I, assuming I wanted to also cross modify it for us??
[Sony Xperia 1 III] MK73DS:
You need to extract the system app android.platform.overlay and decompile it. Search in public.xml (in res/values) for the value of the field named config_maxUiWidth (it should be a hex value not far from 0x7f070013)

Note: you could probably get the result easier using idmap2 but I didn't manage to do it and the decompilation method is pretty quick as well.

If the value is 0x7f070013, then you don't need to do anything and the Xperia 1 III Magisk module should work on the Pro-I. Otherwise, go in the Magisk module and decompile the apk file found in the system folder (there's a chain of single folders with the apk file at the end). Go to public.xml and update the value with what you found. Then recompile the apk, sign the apk, and put it back in the Magisk zip module.

For a quick explanation of what this does (and I must thank @phailyoor for his posts in the Xperia 1 IV forum) is that you can overwrite some ressources values in recent versions of Android, in a process called RRO. Here, we're overwriting the config_maxUiWidth from 1096 (the full HD we're stuck with) from the FrameworkRes.apk to 0, disabling the limit and allowing wm size to go past 1096p.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] ragu24:
Ayooo it's a match!! I also got the same value then!!

Thank you!!

EDIT: Just wanted to add this app here is excellent to interface the resolution and does work as good as ADB command, except at the press of a button!!

Hello I recently got a kindle fire 10 HD 11th gen , and I wanted to run this program called DroidEdit which is a text editor for code. I tried to run the program using an outdated SL4A apk file (SL4A stands for scripting language for android) unfortunately, it turned the screen black and I had to exit the app. Is there an updated SL4A I can use that is already built for me? There is a SL4A package on github but it has to be built manually and I have no idea how to do it.

Hi!

I recently bought a Redmi Note 9 4G with a Chinese ROM in China, and as you all understand this limits my accessibility to everything related to Google. The phone is running on MIUI 12, and I'm now desperately trying to get access to everything I could on my phone that I bought back in Europe (such as Android OS, Google Play Services and Play Store as well as syncing to my Google account).

A friend sent me a link with a guide on how to unlock the bootloader and subsequently migrate from a Chinese ROM to a global ROM:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/b4phic

After waiting 168 hours (as required from Xiaomi) I successfully unlocked my bootloader, and then tried to flash my phone according to the instructions in the link above. My phone completely rebooted (as if it was a factory reset), and it seems like I was able to download a few more apps than I was able to before. However, it still clearly states that I do not have Google Play Services, and the entire phone system does not appear to be Android. It is impossible for me to use apps such as YouTube, Facebook, Gmail etc. despite being able to find APK-files and installing the apps. There is also no Google Play Store.

Could anyone please help provide me with some clarity on this? It would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James_Watson:

Here are two screenshots, the first one is from the list of all my apps, while the second one is what pops up when I try to use certain apps. What's even weirder is that apps such as Spotify still work (despite it saying that I need Google Play Services), while other apps such as Gmail won't work. And once again, the problem that I don't have access to Google Play Store remains. Thanks!
