I can't seem to find a happy medium whereby I can see my icon labels correctly on my home screen.
Although the screen is 6.4" , my other device 6.47" seems to show all my icons and it's labels without the dot dot dot. Everything seems smaller on this display.

Hello, you checked already display size and font size within android display settings?
Also custom launchers have more possibilities to change icon arrangement, size or label size.
If you want to go further I can also recommend kustom KLWP :good:

I have explored all avenues I think third party launcher is the only option I have and also root. Everything looks smaller on this screen compared to the S10. The font size and screen size settings appear to do the same thing on the OP7. Even Tapatalk fonts look small. I thought having a flat screen would make the screen estate bigger, albeit not. The navigation bar is about 1inch and the status bar another 0.5" approx 1.5" smaller usable screen I guess.
I definitely need to look into the option that you suggested.

Well hello there - congrats! It seems that you're a happy owner (finally) of that RED OP7, hehe....
Enjoy it and let me know how's life with it, please. Maybe you can make a video also about it.
It would be nice to cover also the aspect of sunlight readability, as you're a Floridian.
Thanks!

To me, copying the iphone icons is getting kinda boring. I do like the nice clean look though.
u use spb pocket plus? so looks like it still has the bug where the space for a scrollbar is reserved (on the right), even when there is no scrollbar? That's a bit weak....stopped me buying pocket plus actually.
I like the HTC Touch, as you can see. Anyway it's my WM6 TyTN (without video calling, boo)
I like the minimalistic approach with the big clock. Heneewai, tell me what you think

Too small icons. To wide left stripe of black empty space. When you're copying iPhone, make it better, make it centered, make it larger.

I figured I would try to get this ball rolling lol here is one of mine
Edit: had to add this one lol btw long press back= flashlight recent app window shows ram if I long press its screenshot exposed is awesome been trying out different modules all night just about.
Edit2: it would also be nice if we could share wallpapers or links to Good ones for 480 x 800
So I was searching the web and decided to look for new wallpaper so I chose lollipop and found a bunch if anyone is looking just type in lollipop wallpaper 960x800 there are alot of good ones if this helped hit the thanx button
Edit: 480x800 but for it to look right on the phone you have to 480x 2=960 (960x 800)
Not generic at all.

Here is my home screen. I set the DPI to 200 in build.prop, and running nova launcher prime I increased icon size 10%. This really improved the usability of the phone for me, I can see more of apps and websites at once. Seems to fit the screen size much better, where before everything seemed too large. The soft buttons now take up less room as well. (The tribute's screen is 207 PPI)
I also included a shot of the default scaling of the reddit website. You can always change the text scaling in chrome if things default too small, I run 110%
I've had one person guess the tribute's screen was 720p, and another 1080p. Goes to show the PPI on phones reached "enough" a while ago.
looks good! I use nova launcher prime as well. kudos on using open camera and real calc, I use them myself and they're both great!!
I'm really liking the nova launcher and this icon pack. As far as changing my status bar, I can change all the font colors except my LTE indictor. Looked it up and couldn't find anything except that it might have to be Virgin Mobile custom rom to change it. Can anyone confirm this?

Ok, so this may be a dumb question but it's bugging the heck out of me. I have an all-black wallpaper (home and lock screen), and this black oval appears at times at the bottom of the screen.
It is very obvious when I am entering in my lock screen passcode, looking at recent apps, pulling down the notification bar, etc. It's clearly related to some sort of graphical shadow at the bottom of the screen or something on the new pixels, but I don't know how to make it go away other than change my wallpaper to a picture or something?
Anyone have a hint?

Is this a screenshot? A display issue wouldn't show in a screenshot. I had some odd graphical issues with an all black background on my Pixel 2. It looked like banding across the top and unevenness on the bottom. I switched over to Nova launcher and everything looked great.
I know you mentioned the lockscreen. I don't know if the Pixel launcher could have any graphical effect when the phone is locked. It might be worth trying a different launcher real quick.

It's the pixel launcher yes. The same issue existed on the OG pixel.
The problem is that the pixel launcher applies a drop Shadow to the status bar area to make the icons less likely to blend into your background, same with the navigation bar area.
Sadly the launcher doesn't recognise when these shadows aren't needed, so it appears as a very dark smear of sorts. Samsung used to have the same problem.
I'd suggest downloading Lawn chair from the app store if you need Google integration, or the oneplus launcher if you want something simple but awesome.

Thank you all for your help. Yes, not a display issue but rather graphical. I am using Nova and adjusted about every setting possible to try to change the shadow but no luck! Just hoping someone figured out and had fingers crossed that I could do something with Nova to change it!

Ah I'm sorry to hear that. If a different launcher doesn't work then it sounds exactly like the issue I've had with Samsung phones, even the s8, when it comes to dark wallpapers. The same weird graphical glitches happen on them too.
It sucks because amoled is so damn perfect for black wallpapers

That'll be why then
Google tweaks all their pixel ROMs with specific features, and the top and bottom shading will likely be one of them. Only real answer would be a custom ROM sadly.
Never understood why they and Samsung choose to do this with their device software.
Does anyone feel like the colors on the screen are duller on the Beta than before? I don't know if it's me. I have the Vivid profile with no blue light filter right now and I performed the Enhanced colors on Accessibility settings also. But I still feel like the colors don't POP anymore...

From the OneUI 2 promo video, they show that the new colors are brighter but i feel like on the beta the colors are the same, i don't know if the new colors are added yet.
source: https://youtu.be/wxwycoG41fc?t=44
Well right now I can't say if it's same to me it felt like they're more opaque but I did compare it to a retail S10+ I came across at the store today and it was at full brightness and I put my S10e at full brightness as well and side to side the difference was disappointing for me. The screen was so much brighter and colors so much more vivid it wasn't even a contest. I don't have any warranty so Im stuck until hopefully the Official Release corrects this. Thanks though, I had not seen that video. It shines a light of hope
The Beta 2 that just released with November patch foxed the colors for me! First thing I noticed when the phone booted!!!
i don't know if i'm running the Beta 2 with november patch (phone says it's up to date), but i just compared the colors from my Phone and Message apps with a screenshot from june, using Photoshop to get the exact color #****** and they are exactly the same for me

Oh man. Then I don't know what to tell you. I know mine was definently software related but if yours is still like that maybe the official release might fix it as One Ui 2 is supposed to bring more vivid colors on its own.

Oh ok, good to know. I thought it was the new ones cause they're so much brighter and saturated than the first beta for me. Nevertheless I guess I have my screen working good and the brighter colors will come in time.

I don't have this problem on any of my other phones. All have the same version of Nova Launcher.
This is not a display problem because a problem with the display will NOT show up in a screenshot. Also, I see this only on the Homescreen. This sort of pixelation isn't seen anywhere else on the same device.
Is this because the Moto G52 uses a P-Oled display?

Turns out that the problem was with the wallpaper I was using. Changing the wallpaper was all that was required.

As noted above, there is nothing wrong with the phone or p-oled screens. In my case, the issue was with the wallpaper. I changed it to another black wallpaper and this kind of a pattern isn't visible. See my post before yours.
