If I make a change in the build.prop such as vm heap size, is there any way to physically confirm the changes are in effect?

In theory, it really should be as simple as checking the current setting in your settings.

Yeah i know about those settings. I was trying to figure out of changing the build.prop would override that. Like, if I made it a little higher than the settings allowed.

Is there a way to disable the automatic screen rotation for specific applications? I thought I'd seen a settings app that did this, but haven't been able to find it on xda or anywhere else. Are there per-application settings that control rotation or is it just the global setting that's available? I've seen mention of doing this by editing an app's manifest.xml file, but am not sure if this can be done if all I have is the apk or not...
Yes i too would love and app that does this. Hope someone writes one soon
still looking for this :/
Its called PerApp... ill post a link soon

One solution...
I recently discovered the Xposed Framework and am using the App Settings module within it to control a variety of per-app settings, including orientation.
The letters are too small unless i use the default font. If i change the font is there an option to change the size of the font??

You can play with the build.prop file under /system and change the density of the screen

Check the vibrant section, there are many different types of flip font apk to download giving you more options for fonts

Yet another way would be...
...there is a free program on the market called Nitrality and it can be used to change the dpi [screen res] phone wide. This would do what you want, but I'm not sure you're wanna change your screen res...also, you need to have root...good luck!...
I think it's possible to do this by modifying a xml file or something like that. But which file i have to modify and what exactly i have to change there?

Preferences - Visual Settings - <swipe right for scrolling menu to> Icons -> Icon Size options.
Works like a charm.
I was wondering if there are any applications used to edit values of other apps.

i'd like to test my signature
I have a MoPho Q and have the bootloader unlocked through MotoDev's site, flashed CWM recovery, and am running Arrrghhh's kernel v 0.10. I have set my screen resolution to 180, it's nice have more virtual space to play with. However, I noticed that the sizing of the Virtual button bar and Notification bar have not changed (only the icons inside them). I read somewhere that this is due to these settings being contained within certain system files (I will describe these files in next post).
I am curious if there is a simple way to reduce these bars' pixel heights to free up valuble screen space, or if any devs out there are aware of any apps or flashables to fix this issue. Thanks.

There is a special prop for that (see the build.prop, don't remember it now, but it's easy to figure).
Well, easy nuff, but I am using ROM Toolbox to edit build.prop and I think that particular tool only reads and edits one of the many build.prop files (I've seen a few different build.prop files in the system). Any idea which ones to find, access and change?
