Change DPI - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to change DPI without root?
Thank you

I don't believe it is, as you need to modify build.prop

No, unless you can find an app that can do it

App settings which is a xposed module can change dpi for apps, but not the dpi of your whole rom. I think this will not need root

Xposed modul needs root right?
App settings need root too..

Of course you can, here is the link:

Private mode not working with root?

Heyo,
Anyone had luck fixing private mode not working with root?
The old xsecurestorage module doesn't seem to do the trick anymore.
Any ideas welcome!

It works on my rooted s7 but you can try out an xposed module called "xtouchwiz". In that module's security hacks you can fake the system status to official and see if it helps or not.

I'll give it a crack. Thanks.
Are you using xsecure or just working rooted without any fixes?

I'm on a custom rom with xposed, but didn't have any problems in root either. But if the module doesn't work, you can try to flash a custom rom and see if it then works.
i think that it is a bug
On S5 secure storage work with Root and Xposed without any Xposed Module. You only must do a factory Reset. Or deleze some files in Data Partition.

Did you solve this? I think it has something to do with xposed. Private mode has been working with root for me but since I installed xposed, I have problems. What did you find out?

You need a modded file in /system/priv-app plus a permissive kernel

Can you please elaborate on this? What kind of file do I need, which kernel do you use? Do you have a tutorial link for this? Thank you so much in advance...

It includes decompiling apks, so best way is to use a custom kernel which already supports this from beginning

Android n theme

N ify works great on onepkus 3 as long as you use on screen navigation bar off screen buttons keep crashing
You can fix that by disabling most of the stuff in the recents section of the module, and it works fine then.

System UI crashes for me if I access recents. Any fix?

Disable double tap action in recents settings of N-ify. That fixed crashes for me.
N-ify work just fine for me (hardware buttons), but I don't like how stock edit button (pen) looks with the drop down arrow from N-ify. Just looks messy. Had to disable the module only because of this until I can find a way to get rid of either stock edit or arrow from N-ify. If anyone already knows how to fix it, please let share.

Works fine here. OOS 3.2.1 with systemless xposed & root. I don't use on screen buttons but I tested for you anyway.

I don't get any lag with it. Since your rooted, download "L Speed" from the play store and push some buttons. Should help a bit

Lag here too. I'm also using Xhangouts, and since the N-ify broke the Direct Reply feature, I assumed the combo contributed to the lag

Changing icon sizes

Is there any way to change the size of the icons on this phone without using another launcher?
I have changed the dpi to my needs but that didn't affect the icons.
No. The best you can do is selecting one of the preset for columns/rows.
Not currently, try another launcher
try changing row,column
You can try changing this value in the build.prop

Actually the stock font is really close to the font I use. That's why I thought it was installed.
Guess we need root.

my mate 9 is rooted and i was able to install and use the fonts in the above link; so it's likely true you need a rooted device to change fonts.

No need for root.
Installed this crazy looking one.
Just testing because my favorite font is similar to the default one and had placebo effect.
Hi , dont know why we cant install font on Emui5, normally its the same thing that Emui4 , no ?
You can change fonts on the Huawei Mate 9 without root. I will post a tutorial how on the Portal.
