Hello guys,
I have a problem , I installed the kitkat ROM and when I installed it the UI was very small and when I mean UI I mean EVERYTHING, icons, textx, overall screen resolution it was all very small and like backed away, so I installed my original PURITY rom and the UI remains small!

What can I do to fix it?

Hi,

You changed your dpi?

Take a look in the build.prop (/system/build.prop) and take a look at the line:
Code: 
ro.sf.lcd_density
It should be 480...

I tried to accesses that folder but I can't find the system folder, I do not believe I changed anything I know how to change roms but i'm no experts on phones..

Edit: I just checked it and it's 370, no idea how it was changed.

Hi,

Yes and in Purity rom it's the default dpi (480).

But I don't know why after flashed Purity rom MrFishiz always had the Slimkat dpi... Maybe due to a dirty flash? Or a script/app that keeps the Slimkat dpi?

I remember it was happen the same thing to another user in the Purity thread (Slimkat-> Purity).

:)

I understood he was on Purity then he flashed Slimkat (he mentioned that all was small, normal) but even after flashed Purity after Slimkat all remains small...

So yes, maybe an info is missing here.

Here is some info for you guys,
I was on purity, I decided to clean flash slimkay, I saw the UI was small and the dictionary assist for my language was missing so I reflashed purity ( clean flash as well full wipe of everything ) and the slimkat DPI somehow remained on my phone cuasing the UI to be small even though I was using a diff rom.

Hammer's solution fixed that.

Clean flash always means to format system manually as well. If you do not backup scripts will survive and will restore eg the DPI ;) so whenever you change a ROM format system manually in addition to the usual data wipe. Otherwise you can run in other problems as well due that every rom slightly backups different thing
