Works ok...but not sure if I'll keep it...(I used 210)

The taskbar icons now have a very slight blur to them...they aren't sharp like they were...doesnt look good...

And the home screen (with sense) now has huge gaps between widgets...doesn't look right either...

It's such a pity the home screen widgets have to "lock" into place and aren't able to be placed anywhere...we could do so much more with the widgets....

@Sichroteph,

I didn't really changed my build, I'm still using Shubcraft v1.4c...I just tried Mattc's on my other memory card out of my curiosity. I cant change the lcd density with shubraft's. Tried a couple of times but nothing changed, but with mattc's, I did it on the 1st try. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. i save it after I edit it but after i reboot it returns back to 240...




edit: got it at last. changed Shubcraft 1.4d lcd density. guess I misunderstood the instructions...

I understand I had the same problem... Actually everything you put into sdcard/android/root will be automatically pushed on your system on the next reboot. Its kind of mirror. Just copy the file into the same directory on the sd card with a regular file explorer and now you can edit it. (make the folder if it doesn't exist)
Two cool things to that :
-its easy (when I update the kernel, I just have to insert the sdcard on my pc, copy zimage and the wifi file bcm4329 into the android/root/system/lib/modules and that's it)
-you can test themes the same way, copying the framework-res.apk on the sdcard automatically push it.
If the phone crash badly I just have to remove the file from the sdcard And I don't have to reinstall everything (but i make backup before just in case :) )
Hope that helps.

I agree. Not 100% sure if I like it. Or if it looks any better than at 240. I am at 210 now.

Do you see any impact on your battery life?

Why would this have any impact on your battery?

Is there any setting for shubCRAFT LCD density that won't make any scaling issues in apps?

Not sure. It just feel like the bettery life seems to be worse after doing this.

Does it make sense?
