S7 Nougat per app DPI settings - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hello, is there any way to apply DPI per app basis on Nougat? I would like to apply bigger DPI value for AOD wile keep lower for whole system like the AppSettings module allowed with xposed framework on Marshmallow.
My device is S7 G930f Nougat 7.0 Helios ROM Magisk 13.1
Thanks in advance :angel:

420 is the limit. And you have buggy emui since we have no xposed. Nav buttons slightly to the left recent apps slightly to the left and quick settings a little narrower

I tried even 400 and 380.. after boot it was impossible to unlock the phone. So I also think that 420 is the limit :good:

Android 5.1 vs 6 for S6: Recommend stay or update?

Hi all,
Would just like to know what your opinions are on either staying on Lollipop (for the moment) or upgrading to Marshmallow for S6-920F. I have purchased a brand new one recently on a sale and see it's loaded with 5.1.1
Bear in mind I'm gonna be custom modding and specifically need things like Xposed, Viper4Android, etc. I'm not sure how far S6 development for Marshmallow is regarding rooting, custom modding, etc., so I can wait for M development to get better.
Please spare me your thoughts for my pennies.
Regards!
:fingers-crossed:
I'm using M since the first beta with Xposed and other mods, it is better than L
I got one on thursday and update it right away , so happy about it this phone is a beast. Seems like a 2016 flagship.

1. The S7 still have 4K video recording.
2. It's not all about pixels , a 12mp camera can be better than a 21 camera.

Thanks for the feedback fellows!
All things considered, I think I'll hang around 5.1.1 until I get fed up. This is a great phone & looking forward to the next 2 years with it! :highfive:

What's the best, relatively bug-free Touchwiz-based ROM for Android M regarding S6? Don't mind Note 5/S7 improvements on it.
If it comes pre-loaded with Viper4Android & Xposed and is stable I would definitely just go there straight.

I updated my Galaxy S6 to Marshmallow, everything seems smooth so far, until when I notice that my OTG stick does not work with my S6 anymore, bummer... another samsung software bug...

I think I found the solution, I noticed that my S6 running marshmallow, when I plug my otg to the phone, I accidentally made the ES File Explorer the default, I can't access the OTG via Samsung's default File Manager. So I went to Applications, go to ES File Explorer, clear defaults... plug my OTG Again, this time don't choose ES File Explorer, if it pops out, cancel it. Then the Samsung's File Manager will now recognize the OTG, and boom, I can now use my OTG properly via Samsung's File Manager...
Adoption rate for Android M is 4.6% of the total market currently while L is at 35.8%. That's quite a big margin.
Doesn't hurt to wait until M matures like a fine old wine...

M is running well and brings allot of improvements for the S6. It is definitively recommended to update! Even more recommended is going to XtreStoLite DeoMod Edition 3.2 ROM (stock kernel, stock settings), there you get a butter smooth experience all over the place with no issues whatsoever.
I have this itch to update my 920I to MM but I have two questions.
1. How is xposed running in MM. Are most of the modules compatible with MM?
2. There are reports of root issues more so with Tasker. For me, Tasker is very important.
Any pointers on these two issues will be helpful.

Exactly why I'm hesitant too! Once you on M then there's no turning back. And if you find out something's not yet working 100% like it did on a previous version then you have to wait.
For all that waiting one might as well have stayed on the older version. This was my experience with Lollipop so far...

Well I didnt like it because it messes with my already customized status bar and etc. But the app is good for those who are not as picky as me
It takes a while to get used to it.
It's new so probably they are improving it.

Is your device n9005?
Works OK with Aryamod 6.5, but not multilanguage (just English).
Just installed apk, tested, and unninstaled, no problem at all.

Well the good news is that Oreo official release is being rolled out. People in the AOSP telegram chat have already started requesting Sammy release the Kernel source so FevaX and co can continue development.
Fingers crossed!

I just have 2 questions:
- Is this version work with exynos processor?
- do i need to enable this app using adb commend? And install any other app? Or just install this apk and set it as default, because it crashed on me.
Edit: it works fine now after setting it as default, and no need to do any thing, juat install the apk and set it as default. Done.
Thanks

That fact alone had me passing to even try this version. I'll wait for the official update to Android Pie, I'm in no hurry.
For notification dots just go to notification access setting and allow the permission for the new launcher. It will work.

Clear cache and data of that app and set it as your default launcher. That should fix the problem.
