Default 182 DPI for overcome hermes v2.01 and Gold 2.0

NOTE THIS ONLY WORKS ON THE OVERCOME HERMES AND GOLD ROMS IT DOES NOT WORK ON STOCK GINGERBREAD YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

UPDATE okay guys i have been doing some testing for those of you who were having problem with the 182dpi settings with black line through the middle on this latest Hermes v2.01 here is the best soulotion. Note before you do this i recomend you use root explorer and back up the stock home launcher from system/apps its called Touchwiz home launcher if you want to revert back to stock you need to replace this file back there i have included a zip file below of the original stock launcher.

step 1) Download the Overcome v2.0.1 stock theme patch here http://overcome.mimzo.com/?page_id=558

step 2) Apply the patch with recovery install zp from sd card and reboot.

step 3) Change your resolution via system/build.prop and edit the line LCD density change from 240 to 182 save and exit this is using root explorer (COPY YOUR ORIGINAL BUILD.PROP FILE TO SD)

step 4) Download TouchWiz4 for Gingerbread Tab here (Make sure you download the 182dpi one) http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1077641 and install the zip file again via recovery after that wipe dalvik catch and reboot.

step 5) Now you will have a brilliant 182 dpi screen resoulotion with no lines and using the samsung galaxy s2 touchwiz launcher i hope you like this tutorial please hit the thanks button if it helped you.

Great work. Using this method now and I love the smaller resolution... Question though. Would say Koshs theme flash onto this without issue? Our would requesting a 182 dpi version from him be the way to go?
