Playstore dpi fix? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how to fix the problem when you change the dpi on your phone, some apps wont show up because playstore thinks its not the right devoce for the app??
I usually set my dpi to 380-400... I like the smaller icons/fonts while having more screen space..
I tried setting the back to 480 and clearing cache from playstore and frame service and rebooted... But it didnt work... How long do I need to wait for the Playstore to update or is there another way around so I dont have to reset the dpi back to default..
Thanks

There is an xposed module called play store fixes for this very thing. Might be worth a shot but I don't know of it works in the new play store.

I think what your experiencing is market has updated. It is now known as playstore and has a new icon. I've never heard of market just deleting itself.

if you dont see the Play Store, then reset the phone and it should pop up. but the Android Market app and its icon are gone.
No i mean when sometimes my wifes sk4g the market app will suddenly remove it self from her phone.... She will attempt to open it and it will say application not installed but it was there before hand

Have you tried Fix permissions from CWM Recovery?
If so, and it's still not fixed...you need to backup your SDcard, format it, let it reinstall itself once on Android and bam.
IF STILL NOTHING, you may need to go a step further...ODIN to KJ2, clear cache partition and dalvik cache, fix permissions (just to be safe), check your mounts, then flash. Enable Wi-Fi on Default so the ROM can download the update from Android Market to Google Play after your first reboot. IF THERE'S STILL AN ISSUE AFTER THIS, sorry it has me stumped.
Ok let's get this straight.
This happened to everyone with the market first switched to Google Play, the icon on your homescreen will change to that because the system can no longer find the application Market.apk, but in your app drawer the play store will be there. Just move the play store to a shortcut on your homescreen. The reason that it comes back when u reflash is because you are just reflashing the old, unupdated market, then when you open it again it will delete the Market.apk and install the play store.

No that's not the issue. The problem is sometimes her phone will freeze and when restarted market is completely gone has nothing to do with transition to play store just the market totally removes it self

I have had apps dissappear from the phone, leaving only a generic green android icon in it's place. I am not sure why this happens, but it usually seems to be after an abnormal reboot. I was thinking it could have something to do with the the SK's seemingly sloppy implementation of putting apps on the sdcard, but the market app is probably stored on the phone, so I dunno.
anyway, were you able to get it back?

[APK]Focal - New CM Camera APP

found this apk floating around xda.
can't remember the original OP I snagged it from.
no need to flash.
no need to push.
just install the APK.
http://db.tt/kyofufYl
working for me on touchwiz rom(mf9).
enjoy.
:thumbup:
Still really buggy, for some reason the panorama crashes the app and the last video Ive tried recording showed it was recording but it didnt. SSo be careful if you plan on using this as your daily camera app.

yea its still in testing according to cm..
installing the apk does not replace your current camera though so no worries really..
still fun to check out and mess around with!

Yea its definitely fun to play around with. Dont get me wrong, when the bugs are ironed out this is going to be far superior than the stock camera ui. Im going to make the switch for sure, but as it is right now I thought Id let peeps know that you may not get the video you think your recording when using this.
not working for me! app starts, all options are there, but no picture - no back nor front camera view. help? original post?
This happened to me a few times, but it always FC'd when I tried to exit out and after restarting it worked again.

try clearing the apps data
:what:
Works for me in pacman alpha cm10.2-android 4.3. Had to clear data first now works perfectly.
It wasn't this apk. Just came in the rom.

Extremely Buggy
Will be my favorite camera app when it works. All kinds of problems. Sometimes clearing the data works, but the next time I want to use it, I have to clear the data again. But even so, it may or may not work... If you open the picsphere deal, then close it, and try to open it again, it won't open. The settings allow you to change them, but they don't change the image at all (unless the data clearing works...). It also should allow us to save to SD card. I use the version(s) deployed with CM Nightlies. I wish they would give this some love... They may be working on it, however, the change logs don't reflect any updates... Please make this app stable!
Using CM10.2 Nightlies on Sprint Galaxy S 4...
This app is now available in the google play store in beta form. I have to say it's pretty good, not quite ready for prime time but definitely puts the stock camera app to same in many places.

Only issue on my end is that the pictures are warped. Both cameras seem like they have a fish-eye effect.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Great beta app! This will be great when completed! I just downloaded the beta from the play store (since it's not included in CM any longer) and it's still super buggy... So, is there any recommended course of action to clear any data that may cause issues for users? I read somewhere to simply clear the data via app settings and reboot, but it didn't help with my in-app settings issue. Basically, I can change the exposure setting, yet the image does not change at all. I also attempt to change the white balance, yet the change never applies to the image. Every once in awhile, the app will mysteriously work, until I close out of that particular instance. Then it reverts to the preformentioned state...
I've been hesitant to make this my default camera because I kept having issues with it and photo sphere is broken. ;/

Fix dpi play store

Hello guys, I've a problem with my playstore, some apps I can't install from it because it says that is not compatible.... Maybe is the new dpi (380), but if is this problem how can I fix it? And if it isn't the problem what can I do?
Return to stock DPI
Thats the problem if you change the xml file manually... change back to stock dpi and clear playstore cache...
You can install Xposed and there is a module called app settings, that you can set the DPI per app, or there is another module called Play Store Fixes that will do just what you want, or else as mentioned before, go back to stock DPI, I personally use mine in 400 and haven't had any issues.

This is what I did
Used app settings module in xposed
Don't touch any other setting just type in 480 for DPI for Google play store and hit save
My DPI is at 400 app store is at 480 and I can use all apps ( I did a test with real racer 3 )
//edit
I made a mistake, my DPI for phone is 400 and my DPI for Google play store and others is also 400. See my post below for details. I also attached proof that it works

See my attached screenshot
Using the xposed module I mentioned, change the DPI to 400 for the following:
Google play store
Google play services
Google play framework
Clear cache for all 3 in settings> apps
Reboot
Done
Not exactly sure if you must change DPI for all 3 or just some, but when I was googling around I saw ppl mention those ones so that's what I did too and it works fine
I made a mistake in my original post, I updated it
My phone and above app DPI is 400

If your phone dpi is set to 400 (which sets ALL system and user app to 400) why would u use xposed to set dpi to same 400 again ? I dont get it

I'm still playing around with it and haven't finalized it. I'm at 380 right now for example.
The point is you clearly don't have to have the stock DPI to get stuff from the Play Store. You said FIFA 15 wouldn't be found to another user, but it was indeed found using the method I said. It should solve the OP's question.

Just in case, FIFA will be found until Play Store updates or refreshes database or whatever it does. If I change dpi right now, everyrhing will work too, then will stop.
Play Store only works at 480, not 380 or 400
U still don't believe me even after I posted a screenshot?
OK I'll see what happens I guess in a week or so that should be enough for the play store to do "whatever it does"..

BTW, does Xposed work for lollipop or is there a fix for lollipop for this issue?
Not that I'm aware of yet since xposed doesn't work on android L as of yet. I sure hope they figure out how to make xposed work on ART by the time cm12s or something else officially is released lol
So, there isn't a way to solve?

I tried it on previous play store versions (and different phone) and it didnt work, perhups it works now, i havent tested yet. What i dont get is why you set Play Store to 400 when it clearly not working for anyone at anything but 480. If anything, you supposes to set all system to whatever you like and Play Store to 480.
It would be nice if someone else tried doing it your way etc since i dont have time to test it.

Try searching Google on the play store and see if any apps need updating. In particular android Web development app
I have the same issue, both search bar and google now close/restart. If I uninstall google app update back to the base 8.1 version then the issue goes away but miss several new features.
Webview is set to 'Chrome 62.0.3202.84'
'Android System WebView 61.0.3163.98' is greyed out so can't see if that makes any difference.
Any suggestions appreciated, hoping DP2 might resolve
Seriously guys?
I already opened a thread and no one answered me.

With DP2 still the same issue.

All resolved for me after OTA to final - DP2 from both OTA and Factory clean install were still crashing, final OTA arrived couple of days ago and has not crashed since.
I had this problem as well. Seems to be related to the wallpaper. I had Aurora Time Lapse set - changing to a static/non live data wallpaper fixed it. Change back to Aurora and the problems come back.

I'm using Aurora, Time Lapse as well, but no issue since the final OTA from DP2 - just hoping the problem does not return, will bear in mind changing wallpaper.

Yes, this happened to me. I assumed it was a theming issue so I updated Swift Installer, applied the new themes, and rebooted. Currently the problem is gone for me.
