My p6200 can't open when I change screen dpi from 160 to 170 by LCD dencity Modder How I can fix
Thank you
I had a similar thing happen to me. If you have an adb set up that works then you can pull the build.prop file onto your pc, edit it back to 160 and copy it back to your tablet and reboot. I have never been able to get adb to recognize my GT-P6210 so I had to reflash a factory rom to get things back to normal.
login to play store on computer. Install go launcher to device over network. Navigate to apps to whatever changes dpi then go 160 and below
Same thing happened to me before. My GT7+ was stuck in the black screen. Whenever I tried to switch it off, it rebooted and got stuck again.
Thank god I installed Clockworkmod (CWM) before I messed around with the LCD density. I asked my nephew to do a nandroid backup from his GT7+, so that I can restore it on my own device.
That was the only method to repair my GT7+ as far as I know. I hope you had installed CWM.

I accidentally deleted my launcher application while messing around in Titanium backup. My phone was getting hung up on the Samsung boot screen when I tried to restart it. I have now tried a factory reset, and the phone now boots to a black screen, I can receive calls and texts but can't access anything manually. I tried installing from the web market but that is not working. Does anyone have any suggestions? Much appreciated....I am desperate.
Edit: Also I can't mount my phone for some reason x_x

If you do a hard reset, you can restore the whole system. Deleting the launcher while booted in Android won't delete anything from the ROM and can be restored that way. But if you don't mind using a different launcher, you can load an apk of your desired launcher on the card and then find a way to get into any screen that will let you get to a file manager. Then you can install the launcher from the apk you loaded on the card. Mess around with the buttons and see if you can't pull up any screen that will eventually get to a file manager.

I did a hard reset, but now it has the same problem - no launcher. It is just a black screen. I played around with it for a long while before coming here trying to figure out any way to get into any menus etc...but nothing.
If you had your device in debugging mode, then you can always download an alternative launcher such as launcherpro on your computer, put it in your platform tools directory and install it through adb. If you need further help with this post your comments and I will read them later and reply.

P.s. if this helped press the thanks button
hard reset doesn't fix apps in system partition, so you can't restore without adb to push a new launcher.

What process did you use to "hard reset"? And which phone do you have?

Is the phone rooted?
Do you have a custom kernel with CWM recovery?
If you do, you should be able to install the launcher using cwm.
There's a specific forum for your phone in XDA. You might find answers there to.
Had same problem, now fixed
Although I have a g2x and I'm running a 2.3.4 rom, this should still work. I did the same exact thing to my phone. I had my wife send me an email (gmail) with a link to google in it. When I recieved the notification, I swiped down, opened email, clicked link, then searched "Go Launcher EX apk download". Once I found a good download for this launcher and downloaded it, I was good to use my phone again. Piece of cake

Hey i'm a noobie but i have a 100% way on how to fix your problem i was once too in that situation and all i did was enter recovery mode (no cwm/twrp) factory reset 2x, clear cache 2x and "Rebooted" When i was in setup wizard it asked me to set up my gmail account. Wifi is recommended but 3G/4G is also fine. If on wifi it will not connect to google servers but instead give you the option to connect to wifi. Connect to your wifi and finish the setup. When your at the black screen you should get a notification for updates on the play store. Tap on it and it SHOULD take you to the play store. After that search the desired launcher you want. (ADW Launcher, LauncherPro, Go Locker etc.
Yesterday after downloading and installing a sweet customizable homescreen "SPBShell" and used it, it kept asking me to buy the application from market which i didn't want to. Earlier this morning, i disabled it's access to the internet and stopped market from accessing the internet and had to uninstall GoLauncher EX and my default homescreen so i wouldn't be asked to chose a default homescreen each time i press my home button. So finally the new Launcher got on my nerve and i uninstalled it without installing a new launcher and then i restarted my phone, now my phone can't get past the SAMSUNG screen.
Sorry for the long message but i seriously need help_____ THANKS IN ADVANCED
I would download an apk for a different launcher (like adw or launcher pro), boot into clockwork go under mounts and storage and mount USB storage. (Assuming you have adb set up) push that apk to the /data/app folder with adb. Reboot and see if that works. Otherwise I would wipe data/factory reset if that doesn't fix it.
Hope I helped

Thanks but i wished you read through the post before, i said i can't get into the phone since the screen stops at the SAMSUNG after vibrating. It doesn't get to the HomeScreen
Do you have clockworkmod recovery on your phone? You won't need to get to the homescreen if you have clockworkmod recovery.
No i don't. DO i need it?
Im guessing you had a pirated version of spbshell? All you have to do is restore a nandroid backup in your recovery.
Yes, if you want to get your phone back to normal with all your data. You could boot into normal recovery and do a factory reset, but all your data would be gone. What is your phone model?
So you rooted your phone, didn't get a custom recovery, didn't make a nandroid backup, dowloaded pirated apps (which could have very well been a virus), deleted the stock launcher, deleted go launcher, and deleted spbshell?
I don't even know if he's rooted his phone lol

You can't delete system apps if you are not rooted. And for his phone not to be working at all, the stock launcher had to be deleted as well. Unless he is using a ROM with golauncher as stock.
Ok guys am sorry for late reply, but my phone is back to normal.
Like i read people saying "Press up and down Volume button and boot into recovery", However, that didn't work for me. I got my phone back when it got to low batttery and showed my main screen before shutting down, so i had to keep the charger ready and when it showed the main screen again to shutdown, i plugged in the charger and since i had no homescreen but i have Advanced Task Killer running so i opened up my search and typed "My files" and reinstalled my default launcher and the phone is working now. I didn't know i have CWM in my system until right now as am trying to format my phone and it showed me the menu which i chosed what to do. Once again, Thanks for the reply and help

Necessary to have what?
I just installed LCD Density Modder Pro and changed my DPI from 160 to 120, which worked fine after rebooting. It was too small so I changed it again this time to 140, after rebooting this time I got an error saying "Unfortunately, Launcher has stopped." Everytime I click "OK" it pops up again.
I did a Factory Reset setting it NOT to restore a backup, and the error remains. I am able to get into Settings, however I am unable to launch any applications as I cannot access the desktop or applications list.
Any suggestions?
Edit: Additional info, running Latest ICS OTA March 12th - Asus Transformer TF101
This was in the app description:

Warning! Changing DPI values may cause some apps to crash or display incorrectly. Also, if you set a dpi that is incompatible with the device or OS, then it may fail to boot, and you will have to restore your OS and or build.prop file. I recommend doing a full backup of your system before using this program if you are new to changing your dpi. If your phone fails to boot, you can restore the build.prop file using adb from recovery mode. I am not responsible for any damage done to your device. Use at your own risk!

Try restoring just the build.prop file?
I wish that part had been highlighted in someway so I wouldn't have missed it.
I'm clearly a newbie. What is ADB and how can I access Recovery Mode to restore the "build.prop" file on my Asus Transformer TF101?
Thanks for help, I really appreciate it!
EDIT: FIXED
Woah... Fixed. I manually reinstalled the latest update: WW_epad-user-9.2.1.17. Voila DPI issue fixed.

Here's a good thread about ADB

Do you have CWM recovery and did you do a nandroid backup?
EDIT: Noticed it's been fixed.
Rooted my S3 successfuly but the DPI changer utility is not working, saying "Unable to read configuration file."
Is there any other way i can change the DPI to 240?
I found the LCD Density Modder on the play store, run it and changed the dpi to 240. Now it won't even boot up!
Please help. I have no other backup! Any way to change this back to whatever the default is without doing a hard reset?
I'm not sure how to fix that, but there is a thread which says never to use that utility for LCD density. You can use ROM toolbox to change the density. You should always have a nandroid backup after rooting with a custom recovery
