I followed the instructions in the threads I found (yes I looked it up), it says to change DPI to 120 following the instructions on in Rom settings>general UI>LCD density. I changes and giving me the tablet mode, but it doesnt fit the screen. There are large spaces I cant use on my homescreen and my widgets are super small. Is there any way to have tablet mode, but keep my full homescreen? Please be helpful and not mean, 1 Single act of kindness.
what launcher are you using? try go launcher and expand the grid size...

That solved the space problem Thanks! But my app icons and widgets are still tiny, any help for this?
in the same launcher, theres an option where you can make bigger icons (preferences -> visual settings -> icons) but let me tell you that if you change the LCD density everything else will looks smaller so I recommend you to change back to 240 dpi. ( sorry for my English )

I thought for tablet mode dpi is suppose to be 128 not 120. 120 might be too small.

I actually got sick of tablet mode pretty quicky, so I went up to 160 dpi which is perfect in every way. But I just switched to Jellytime R1 by randomblame which doesnt have the rom controls, so I used toolbox to change my dpi...but I dont know where to get the correct market. This would be my last question for this thread, I'm pretty satisfied where I am atm, except for the playstore issue
Is it possible to fix camera recording on AOKP 8,5 or 8,6 rom ?

WORKING EXCELLENT with G2X Gingerbread leak update.zip, you will be in love !!!! NO MORE BAGS at all !!!
I was very surprised ! When I saw that LG G2x working EXCELLENT with density "190" with out ANY COSMETIC problem !!!!
Example: My nexus S of cause working too with "190 Density" BUT I got a lot of problem ! BECAUSE "ROM" not intended" to work with higher resolution !!!!!!!... EXAMPLE I got bad LOCK SCREEN, some widgets sucks...etc.
but I remembered first review about LG Optimus 2x, It said that the phone has higher resolution, plus I saw the photo.)
So lets START !
U need Root Explorer !
1) open root explorer.
2) go to system
3) open "Build.prop" (long press on it>open in text Editor)
4) almost at the bottom u will SEE this: ro.sf.lcd_density=240
5) Change 240 on 190
6) Close and save.
7) Fix permissions. (better do it in "rom manager")
8) Restart your phone.
(If you will find any bag, u can easy return everything back, I found only 1 ! On Latitude Icons funny lol!.....)
Unfortunately you can not see all the "buzz" from Screen shots:

Looks weird. What are the advantages? Just that you can see more entries in a scrollable list like Gmail, settings, etc? Does the keyboard get smaller? Smaller keyboard is a no-go for me. I have big fingers.

Yup. Just makes everything smaller so you can view more on the screen at one time than you can by default.
Thanks for thread was curious how to do this outside of using the root tools app. Ended up with a density of 190, its all compact and tiny but the clock text is still visible.

Please make it 190 !
Be aware some apps will no longer render full screen after changing this setting, you'll have to decide what you're willing to deal with if it happens or ask the dev of the app to do whatever it is with their app so it works with other random density.

no, you need to uncheck the compatibilty check box, and then reboot. that will make 95% of apps render correctly on the lower DPI.

I've tried with spare parts but it dosent work, when I change font size from regular to large it changes back to regular automatically.
Anyone know why this is happening? Or is there any other apps? I really hate the original font size.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
you gotta wait for fre3dom to use LCD density, or dont reboot with temp root and hope the spare parts settings stick...
either way, get used to it, or have patience, its not gonna change anytime soon

Im using spareparts plus. And it works decent. Yes it will revert on reboot. But I just open the app back up and just choose large for the font and then back out of the app. Sense will take about 3 to 5 seconds to adjust. Afterwards the font will be large. Also I turn off the auto rotation in display settings because if you rotate the phone while spareparts plus is activated it will revert back to stock. But I keep a short cut to spareparts plus and display settings on my home screen to make it a little easier. You can find the app on the android market "spareparts plus" Also it has no ads and is a decent work around until root. Well hope this helps.

Hi everyone,
I am using AOKP ROM build 40 and I want to change page transitions or app opening transitions....
Please can anyone help me with this....I had seen some really cool transition animations like the dialog box popping from the bottom in one of my friends SG ACE ROM....
Thanks
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
I just use GO Launcher as my default launcher and use the animations/transitions from there. So many to choose from and for different scenarios too.
Personally, I set all my "effects" to Random. That way every time I switch home screens or enter the app drawer, it's different!

I am asking for animations which are for built in things...like the dialog box for everything or any app opening....I figured out that it can be done by editing anim folder in Res folder of framework.apk....but still I need someone to give me some some animations which are in XML format so that I can edit the apk....

Hi all,
I'm hoping people would share their Paranoid Android UI settings here.
Some of us (me included) are having a very hard time adjusting the UI, including the status and notification areas, correctly on our Tabs.
Thanks!!
//M
Well, I'm not sure what u mean exactly but after lots ofntweaking and testing I have settled for these:
In the launch section I'm on tablet ui(mid)
In the interface section I'm on tablet UI for all(720px - although in actuality 800px is the ideal for our tablet and u can manually modify that in the paranoid conf files if u wish, I didnt)
And for the size values in the interface section I am set to 180 for all..
Then I went to modify certain apps I wld use often: youtube, play store and my launcher
So in the apps section I chose those and adjusted their values to something that makes proper use of our wonderful screen..
Youtube size: 160, layout/ui: 800px
Play store size: 180, layout/ui: 800px
Launcher(go launcher HD) size: 180, layout/ui: 600px
But u can play around with the individual apps to test what the different settings cause, u mostly only need to change these two values..
Another question: I randomly get a screen flicker along the bottom of my screen(only on this rom though), do u get it too by any chance? just wondering..

Hi guys!
I just upgraded to slim bean 4.3 from 4.2.8. The install went fine and the phone runs great. The problem I'm having is in the drop down screen, all the text and icons are really small. Also when I use the google search bar, when the browser opens, the text doesn't fill the entire screen, there's appx. 1/4 inch of empty screen that's not being used.. I've gone through (seemingly) everything to try and fix this, I even bought the Nova Pro to try and resize the icons.. This is driving me nuts!!
Can someone please help me ?
Slim bean DPI is 245 by default. most other roms are 320 by default. you can change your DPI under settings > interface > density
