download spare parts from the market. compatibility mode is at the bottom of the list,
[Desire Android Development] joymishra:
Anybody tried 220 or 170??
[Desire Android Development] l1nuxfre4k:
na im sticking to 200 :)

works perfect

and btw.

You can do all this on the phone :p

use Astro file manager,

unpack the rom,

go to the file change it.

pack it again and flash it :D

and now with full root you can just go edit the file i think :)

you need to reboot after also.
[Desire Android Development] Lennyuk:
correct, those of us that have S-OFF can now use something like Root Explorer to find build.prop (long press and go edit in text editor) then edit, save changes and reboot.
[Desire Android Development] typhex:
i got rooted s-off desire. so i am using root explorer to go to /system then i try to open build.prop with text editor but then i am becoming a warning: " You cannot edit this file because the file system is read-only." i thought with s-off i can edit the system files on the fly?
[Desire Android Development] UpSpin:
on the top of root explorer is a button called 'mount r/w', press it, try it again, and after that mount it as r/o again.
[Desire Android Development] l1nuxfre4k:
Hm that sounds strange.

Yes you are correct.
[Desire Android Development] typhex:
thanks a lot :D... didnt saw the button :). OFC i had to reboot to see changes.
[Desire Android Development] typhex:
i am trying 170 atm. it is working. can i change the grid size ofe the homescreen in LauncherProPlus, so i can add more apps etc to it?

*edit: i found it. Preferences-> Homescreen Settings-> Number of columns & Preferences-> Homescreen Settings-> Number of rows
[Desire Android Development] philJ:
Anyone an idea to zoom unsupported apps?
[Desire Android Development] noble8:
Yes a fix for those apps would be awesome.
[Desire Android Development] philJ:
like the magnifying glas for the screen at windows ...
[Desire Android Development] zeussn:
Wow, it look real nice with 200.

Also, is there any app to get a little bigger font size ? Right now the font are a little too tiny.
[Desire Android Development] DesirableHTC:
I cant see any difference myself, tried it with Root explorer, 200 noticed no difference, then tried 190, still couldn't notice any difference........

Using SuperVillain ROM.
[Desire Android Development] serverless:
If you have s-off on your desire you can use the app Lcd density from the market and change resolution on the fly without manually edit any files.
[Desire Android Development] chrysochire:
I agree and confirm. I am using Auraxt 7.6.1 and the LCD density from the Market worked just fine...

No need for ADB gymnastics.... ;-)
[Desire Android Development] markuz85:
200 looks great but unfortunately Spotify looks terrible: /
[Desire Android Development] l1nuxfre4k:
read the thread!

turn of compatibility mode.

i use spotify everyday

looks fine
[Desire Android Development] StuMcBill:
I have mine on 200, and the only app I have found so far that appears to have issues is Seesmic!

The text overlaps the avatar pictures, and I have turned off compatability mode, same result.

Switched to Tweetdeck instead! :D
[Desire Android Development] markuz85:
Oh, I see! Thanks :)
[Desire Android Development] Kollegah:
LCD Density Changer not works for me. I downloaded it, installed it and configured it. I configured 200 as Default Density but when the Phone reboots it NEVER !!!!!!! go to 200. It stays at the Android Default 240. I configured ALL right. GRRR !!!
[Desire Android Development] bernie012:
Worked for me, also having s-off. Set on 220 , looks very nice but after normal reboot the setting is back to default. Too bad
[Desire Android Development] iinga:
LCD Density > Menu > Save Density as System Density
[Desire Android Development] fwers:
has anyone tried this on MIUI ? if i set anything other then 240, the lockscreen looks messed up.. is there a fix for this ? thanxs
[Desire Android Development] harekris:
same here

I have got the same problem here
[Desire Android Development] redlabour:
Which App?
[Desire Android Development] K0L3N:
I've got it set @ 160, but the UI is ****ed up, is there a different UI that does work? For example, the notification bar is less wide than the screen.
[Desire Android Development] morcus:
In my opinion, the best value is 180 coupled with LauncherPro Plus with this settings :

Homescreen Settings

- Number of columns : 9

- Number of rows : 7

Advanced Settings

- Drawer columns portrait : 5

- Drawer columns landscape 8

With LauncherPro Plus version, you are allowed to resize widgets.
[Desire Android Development] l1nuxfre4k:
read the first post ...
[Desire Android Development] serverless:
Don't forget that if you change Lcd density you will loose auto brightness, at least on cyanogenmod
[Desire Android Development] Ik Desire:
A search would have answered your question, but dit you notice the mount r/w button in root explorer? The w stands for write, which you need to edit a file. Don't forget to turn it off (r/o) after you did your modifications to prevent unintended damage to system files.

[Desire Android Development] K0L3N:
Which part do you mean? Compatibility off? Because that is turned off.
[Desire Android Development] ThePanama:
This worked like a charm for me using adb - many thanks ;)
[Desire Android Development] Turbii:
Works great!

Tried different numbers (180, 200, 210, stock=240). I'm using Zeam Launcher. And i checked the box at Compability mode. Rom = Oxygen Gingerbread RC6.

Funny thing is, every app (I've tried) is nice and fullscreen. Except from Screenshot-app :s Good thing i don't mind that :]

Well, here are some screenshots.

240 210 180

You can see that with 180 a lot more fits on your screen. But I like 210 the most. Everything is smaller, but still very readable.

Thanks a lot!
[Desire Android Development] lick_the_fish:
Using with zeam launcher and loving this what a great find. Have it set on 200 with 6 rows and columns :-)
[Desire Android Development] stoffeboffe:
Might there be any potential dangers with changing this value? I'm thinking about the lifetime for the screen or similar?
[Desire Android Development] sagorap:
I have done via Root Explorer, i set the value to 200 then i rebooted my Desire, I have DHD rom and Go Launcher. Sense failed with this value, Go Launcher looked good but there were big spaces between icons, so I returned to the default value.

Is there anyway to decrease the space between icons?
[Desire Android Development] lick_the_fish:
On Zeam launcher you can go into preferences and change the number of columns/rows. This decreases the space and allows the addition of more apps/widgets.

I went for 6x6 which seems to work perfectly.

As for the life of the screen, its just changing the resolution so it shouldn't have an effect? Its not altering the hardware, just the way its displayed.
[Desire Android Development] xavierjohn22:
Might as well see in PC when I get home, lol I can't see a thing, even the post struck me. Do you mean like changing screen resolution in windows? Nit bigger screens literary.
[Desire Android Development] coutts99:
How?

[Desire Android Development] b3ndik:
hold the widget, like you were to move it, then let it go when it vibrates without moving it. then you can drag it bigger/smaller.
[Desire Android Development] coutts99:
Excellent, thanks :)
[Desire Android Development] b3ndik:
np, glad to help an epic dev.
[Desire Android Development] CrisperNeO:
This mod is just fantastic, it puts much more things in a screen, much more efficient!

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] CrisperNeO:
I found the screen for incoming calls in Sense (when locked) will be messed up, the rainbow for answering or declining a call is not stretched horizotally, it only occupies part of the screen. It's kind of weird coz the rainbow on lock screen seems ok.

Is there any way to change this or is there any alternatives?
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] dmd216:

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] VisualOddity:
Anyone? As for why I need this, please see this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8125474#post8125474

Basically, I just need a mostly reliable Android ROM that doesn't get SOD or GSOD, no constant reboots, and reliable data and wifi tethering...

I am running the BlackStone 2.2 w/ Sense, and it is very reliable. Almost always boots fine, no real SOD after radio upgrade, and fast. However, data will cut out sometimes and take the radio with it, usually for about a minutes (or less), and every once in a while needs a reboot to fix. Also, WiFi tether causes a lock when I try to open it and I have to pull the battery.WiFi tether is a necessary for me now (see link above), and I'm not even sure Dev's have gotten it to work on any ROM... Thought I would ask here...

Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thatruth132:
did you bother reading any of the threads or build threads
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] VisualOddity:
Yes, I did. I have read bunches and gone through a number of ROM's. I am not clear after reading them. Sorry if that is a problem, but I'm not, so I am asking for clarification. Since I am not sure what ROM to go with, it seems one post here is more efficient then a different post in every rom thread...

Thanks.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ddgarcia05:
When you say reliable do you mean no SOD or screen freezes? If so, I'd say no. There is no 100% reliable android build yet.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] 10507:
There's only a hand full of ROM here, why not try them out for yourself? If one didn't work, try another one.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] RippieUK:
Move question to android general! Android on hd2 is very much still in early development, so answer to your question is no.

They are very good but not perfect.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thatruth132:
well if you gone thru a number of roms then you should be able to tell two things:

1, what rom works for you ....

2, and that alot of people experience what you did and there are fixes ,
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] VisualOddity:
I do have an idea which ones work for me, but I never really needed tether before, so I never tested. Also, I know there is no perfect ROM. I could deal w/ freezes, which are fixed by killing the G-Sensor. I just wanted something w/ no SOD and wifi tether/data...

I think I have my answer from this thread. Thanks to those that helped.

Thanks...

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pedmond:
I tried quite a few Android ROMs and in my opinion, while great progress has been made, none is good enough for daily use. Unless you are an enthusiast and willing to live with rather frequent freezes and some missing functionality.

This being said, I enjoyed tremendously playing with Android, and I believe it will be my next system. However, I'm using my phone for business and simply cannot live with an unreliable system.

Anyone else have a problem?

I got my Samsung dock last night. Does anyone else have the problem that it does not stay connected to the phone?

The phone lay on it's left-side so that the mini-USB connector can make contact. But it does not stay connected!!!! You have to press it really hard to the left and when you remove the pressure, it looses connection!

NO- it's not my back/case. I have tried both the supplied backings of the phone and they are the same. I think the problem is the connector does not stick far enough out of the dock, so the connection is poor!

This is pretty useless. I'm gonna call Samsung right now and get a RMA for return - defective product! How can they try and get away with this?.....or is it just mine.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floepie:
I've been following the development board now for some time, but I'm just curious about something that I think would tie a bunch of loose ends. Does the kernel occupy an entirely different space on the phone than does the flashed ROM? Or, is the kernel a subset of the ROM, that is, is the kernel a replaceable component within the ROM? When you flash a ROM, or firmware, does the ROM flash the kernel too, or is kernel generally left untouched?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
It depends on the ROM that you're flashing, some ROMs replace your kernel, some ROMs don't.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vulcZ:
I went from 1.34 to 1.40 and I get better 3G speeds along with a less sketchy connection.

Example: 2 weekends ago I was at the LA County Fair in Pomona Ca, and I couldn't really use my phone. It would show me as 3-4 bars of 3g coverage, but as soon as I would try to do anything that used data, it would automatically revert to 1x, and as soon as I closed that app, it would come back to 3-4 bars of 3g. Also, if I would send a text (SMS, not MMS), it would hang, and just never send it. The bad thing is that during this time I could not make or receive phone calls. I would reboot the phone, and it would work for about 15 minutes, then the same problem again. As soon as I left the fair it would start working normally again.

I updated my PRL to 60670 (from 60668) and the PRI to 1.40. I went to the fair again and my phone worked flawlessly the entire time.

Is there a google calendar app that comes with Froyo ?

I've been trying to sync my handset with my google account but nothing gets synced even though it says its being synced sucessfully in the settings menu.

From the calendar, do menu-> more-> calendars and see if there are checkmarks next to the calendars you want to display.
[EVO 4G General] nebenezer:
Wow, I think that's the lowest posts-per-day ratio I've ever seen!!

[EVO 4G General] topdawgn8:
Where is the calendar you want to sync? If the calendar is aready on google, you have a problem, but if you are trying to sync, say, an outlook calendar with google, I'm pretty sure you have to import it to their servers before it will sync. I don't think the calendar stored in the phone (like the pcsync calender) or contacts that are stored in the phone will sync to your google account unless you import it.
